Chapter 4 - Chapter 2

NIKKI'S P.O.V

I always wake up late even though I sleep early; this is the biggest problem when it comes to early birds.

"Nikki lunch is ready" called mom. I hopped out of my bed and head towards my closet; I took a quick shower and dry up myself; I wear the most incredible experiment style of mine (I also used to design dresses).

"Nikki? Lunch is ready for the nth time" shouted mom. Wait? What? Lunch? Oh my! I really woke up late. I need to go to the mall to buy stuff for next week trip. Did Nick receive my letter? Ugh! So what if he did received it! He'll never respond to it anyway. When I'm still in my day dream my younger sister surprised me…

"Big Sister, big sister, big sister" called my little sister.

"What? Why in a hurry my little princess? I know that I'm late so don't be surprised!" I teased and laughed at her. "No! I have some kind of good & bad news" she said.

"Oh? So you're now a reporter?" I chuckled.

"Hey! Seriously and I don't know if you'll be happy or mad or whatever!" she said while catching her breathe.

"Well, that's quiet intriguing; well then, tell me" I smiled.

"But first don't be surprised! Ok?" she warned.

"Ok!" I quickly answered.

"Nick is on downstairs waiting for you" she said nervously. HUH?! Nick? What the hell is he doing here?

"Ah! Okay" I said.

"So you're not mad or whatever?" she asked.

"Nope? I'll go downstairs in a minute" I bid. She just walked out and left. I thought I will be happy if he'll come back but I felt hatred and a little bit mad. I quickly ran downstairs and say "hi" to Nick's mom. I saw Nick smiling at me but I just ignore him. I really don't know what's happening to me. I noticed a girl sitting on the couch and smiling at me. Who the hell is she? I don't recognize her, Well I don't care.

"Hey Nikki, you're so tall now and you're beautiful than before. The last time I saw you, you're shorter than me" complimented by Nick's mom. I smile just a sign of response.

"Well she's a grown up now" said mom. "Where's Dad?" I asked.

"He's in his office honey with Nick's father, they we're talking about something very important" mom answered.

"Hey shorty, we'll I guess I can't call you that pet name anymore; Now you've grown tall but unfortunately not taller than me" teased Nick. I just put a fake smile and ignored him, I head to the kitchen to grab some drinks and left them in the living room.

NICK'S P.O.V

I felt guilty and hurt when she ignored me. Yeah! It's my fault but I don't want to end our friendship. NOT THIS DAY, NOT THIS TIME, NOT IN MY LIFETIME.

"What happen between you two?" asked Myka. I was shocked when she asked it to me; I mean I didn't expect it. "Hmmm… nothing, she just misses me. That's all, right ?" I asked Nikki's mom. "Yeah! Nikki was like Nick's sister, they always spend their time together" answered Nikki's mom.

"But that thing was change since the day you left her. Big sister is a loner! She doesn't want to talk to other people anymore" yelled by a girl just about 4 years younger than me.

"Well, well, well! Nin? You've grown now" said mom.

"Nin? You mean baby Ninny?" I asked.

"Yes Nick, she's the baby girl you used to borrow like a toy HAHAHAHAHA!" Nikki's mom laughed.

"I'm not a baby anymore, and I would prefer to call me Nin rather than Ninny" Nin shouted with a pout, so cute. She must be really angry for her sister, which in the other hand makes me happy because I thought that since the day I left there'll be no one protecting Nikki. We heard footsteps from the hallway and glad to see Nikki. She's more beautiful now, with a perfect body and a height of like 5'8, a perfect brown hair that makes her more attractive. She's so incredible, I might fall for her. WAIT? WHAT DID I JUST say? NO WAY! She's my best friend and nothing more. "Honey, why don't you talk to Nick and Myka while I, Nin and Nick's mom will go to the alfresco to prepare the table" her mom said. I heard Nikki groaned but soon walked towards us.

"Whatever you say mom!" she responded.

"Great honey, see you in a bit" her mom bid. My mom, Nikki's mom and Nin head quickly to the alfresco.

NIKKI'S P.O.V

Shit! I'm so not getting over with this! Why is he here? I hate him! He really ruined my day!

"So you're Nikki?" asked the girl, if I remember her name was Myka. She's about two years younger than me. She's tall, white skin with matching baby blue eyes, owns a perfect curly hair that just fit to her.

"Haven't you heard? Or is it not the obvious?" I replied. Now! Where are my manners? But whatever I don't need to explain myself to anybody.

"Uhh! Hey look girls! Ahm… Myka she's Nikki and Nikki she's Myka my girlfriend" Introduced Nick. Wait what did he say? Myka was his girlfriend? I'm so not his best friend anymore.

"Well, nice to meet you Nikki. Nick talks so much about you. How…" I cut her off. "Really? But I guess I need to say sorry of whosoever are you; your boyfriend didn't tell HIS USED TO BE BEST FRIEND that he already got a girlfriend" I answered.

"Nikki…" Nick wanted to say something when suddenly my little sister shouted. "Lunch is ready" we all nodded and walk to the alfresco. I let them walked first so now I was behind them! Is this really the role of a used to be best friend or friend? Shit! This is the best horrible day ever!

NICK'S P.O.V

As we arrived at the alfresco we quickly take a sit; and as I concluded Nikki will be sitting next to me and Myka will be sitting next to Nin. In fact, this will be a great opportunity to talk to her again when suddenly…

"Nin, why you're not sitting beside me?" asked Nikki.

"Honey dear, don't you remember that those chairs where named after the two of you?" said Nikki's mom.

"I also heard that too, Nick told me that it was the sign of your friendship" smiled mom.

"You two we're really great best friends" said Myka.

"Ugh? Excuse me? USED TO BE BEST FRIENDS and F.Y.I we're not that great!" said Nikki. Damn! Nikki will never embarrass me, well not 'til today.

"Yeah, I mean it's all in the past and look we've grown now; we're not kids anymore" I smile.

"Well, great now Myka you mind if we'll switch places?" Nikki asked sarcastically. She's so horrible, upset! Crazy! Ugh! She's ruining everything!

"No not at all" Myka replied.

"Excellent!" Nikki smirked. We eat lunch happily except Nikki; I mean she used to laugh but when I will start the conversation again she'll ignore me. SHIT! I miss my best friend, she's so near yet I can't even hug her or even hold her.
