Her phone vibrated when they were talking. The call was from Jessica's father. Austin took a few steps back releasing her hand. Jessica was shocked to see her father's number appearing on her phone. She looked at Austin before answering the call, as always it was hard for her to understand what he was thinking by his expressions. She answered the call.
"Dad," she said in a low voice.
"When are you gonna meet us?" her father asked her.
"Tonight?" she replied skeptically.
"Okay, let's meet tonight," her father said.
"Is this why you called me at this hour?"
"Yes," he said.
"Okay, let's talk after after we meet ," she said and ended the call.
"Anything serious?" Austin asked her.
"Not serious but its weird, dad never called me and asked me if I'm coming home," Jessica said.
"Let's meet your parents and my mother together .As soon as possible .What do you say ?" he asked her .
Jessica's heart suddenly jolted .
As wide-eyed Jessica heard Austin's words " "is he serious ? looks like he is, " she thought.
Jessica could say that he was being serious by looking at his face.
It has just been a week since they got into relation and Austin already wants her to tell their parents about them .Never in her dreams she has imagined that things would change within a week.
"Are you sure ?" she asked him skeptically .
"I mean it , he said with no sense of humour.
" But how and when ?" she asked him .
" Soon ," he said after giving a quick kiss on her forehead and went to her room to get ready .
There was a slight blush on the girl's face when he said that he wanted to tell about them to their parents .
Her phone vibrated a few seconds after Austin left to her room .
Jessica saw her phone . It was a message from Rachel.
"How was it ?"
Rachel texted Jessica .
"We went to a lake . It was beautiful . "
She texted her back .
" I meant the kiss . "
Rachel texted .
A bright smile took over Jessica's face after reading that message .
"It was magical . But how did you know That kissed ?"
Jessica asked in her text message .
" Because I trust your guy . I was sure that he would definitely make a move ."
"Shut up ."
Jessica sent a laughing emoji along with her message .
" Don't you think it is weird . I mean I know Austin is not a kind of person who'd go after girls to fulfill his desires but what I'm not understanding is , how did he even accepted you so easily ? , he didn't even take time to think . Don't you feel there's something which he is not telling you ?"
" Even I thought about it when he didn't contact me in these three days . But then I didn't bother about it much . "
Jessica texted back .
" You have to know the reason atleast , what made him to love you ? , isn't that a simple question ?Ask him and let me know by night "
Rachel texted .
" You think he'd tell me ? "
Jessica asked Rachel .
" No . But you can atleast try. "
" Fine "
Jessica Texted back and their conversation ended there .
Most of the people don't react to sudden confessions , it'll take time for a person to realise and understand their own feelings for other person but Austin's actions were different , either he loved me before or he is just dating me . But Austin isn't a kind of person who'd just date any girl even if he had any opportunity , these thoughts were running on Jessica's mind when the door of her room opened with a click sound .
"Shall we leave ?" he asked her .
"Yes , give me five minutes ," she said and rushed into her room .
They left her home around nine in the morning . In car Jessica kept looking at Austin to ask him about the things which were running on her mind .
"Do you have anything to ask me ?" Austin asked her with his hands on the steering and eyes fixed on the road.
"Nothing ," she shook her head.
"Then why were you staring at me since the time we got into the car ?" he asked her .
Jessica tilted her head towards the window to hide her face out of embarrassment . She thought he didn't see her looking at him but she didn't know that he was seeing her from the corner of his eyes time to time .
" I do have something to ask ," she said looking out of the window .
Austin turned his head and looked a her .
"What is it ?" he asked her .
"What made you say that you were willing to love me . You didn't even have much time to think about it ," she said slowly turning her head to look at him.
"There was no need for me to think because if you didn't tell me , I would've been the one to propose you ," he said .
Jessica's eyes widened to his words . "What did he mean by saying that ?" she thought .
"You mean..."
"We reached ," he said which made Jessica eat her words , when she looked around , she was stunned .
