Chereads / Life with my Mystery Guy / Chapter 9 - I know your name

Chapter 9 - I know your name

I feel so embarrassed right now..and a little happy. And i'm pretty sure I'm red like a tomato.

Krista : " W..w...well I'm glad a aa..at least someone's happy right now!" I'm trying to sound angry right now. I don't think it's working... my lips won't listen to me, it wants to form a smile. Urgh..whatever...it's not like he can see me.

My mystery guy : " My bad...Sorry. I didn't mean to make you uncomfortable. What I mean is I enjoy talking tou you. You always lift my mood just by being you. "

'How is this any better? This definitely sound like a confession. Oh no...I'm being delusional. We're just friends....phone friends. Not even real ones, if this exists. Don't read to much into it Krista, you're not a teenager anymore.'

I'm panicking...i'm definitely panicking.

Quick think of something...." Oh.... well ..glad to be of service."

'I'm doomed ... what if he thinks I'm stupid? '

Krista : " Than ....if...if I'm such a good ..uhm...spirit lifter...can ..can I at least know your name? I mean... you already know mine and we've been talking over the phone for a while now so ..so ... it's only fair...right?"

I think I fried some brain cells .. yesss... that's definitely it.

My mystery guy : " Hehe.."

Aaand he's laughing at me again... yeah...maybe it's time I change carriers, I should probably go into the entertainment section.

My mystery guy : " Well.. okay. I mean it's only fair, just as you said. My name is Andrew.

Krista : " Andrew.." I say just above a whisper.

My mystery guy: " Do you need my resume also?"

Krista : " What ? No...no ...that's..."

'Yes I want your resume.' I scream in my head.

My mystery guy : " Okay than."

Krista : " Wait. Can I change my answer?"

My mystery guy : " What are you? A preschooler ? No...you can't."

Krista : " Meanie!"

My mystery guy : " I'm the teacher remember? I'm allowed to be mean."

Krista : " Hmph..." rolling my eyes and pouting just like a kid who's told no by his/hers parents.

My mystery guy : " Stop pouting. Cute girls should not pout."

Krista : " How..how do you know i'm pouting?" I look left and right to see if someone is there. Of course there's no-one there. "And how do you know I'm cu...cute?" I say shyly and turn into a tomato again.

My mystery guy : " Haha...Ooh so you're not cute then." He says with amusement in his voice.

He's definitely enjoying himself while i'm here boiling like a ripped tomato.

Krista : " Of course I'm cute. How can I not be cute. I'm the most cutest and lovable and adorable being in the ..the..." I rebuke instantly but before I can finish my sentence I'm greeted with that hearth shattering laugh of his... fulll..and rich..and just perfect.

My mystery guy : " Hahahaha.....who praises themselves like that?"

I stand on my feet in bed and with a red face and pointing a finger at no-one in particular I shout in my phone , angry and embarrassed and what not...

Krista : " You...you ....this is all your fault. You're doing this deliberately. You 're making me sound stupid. Stop teasing me like that"

My mystery guy : " .... okay okay...i'm sorry...you don't need to shout.It's not my fault you're easy to tease. I won't tease you too much...tonight...probably."

Krista : " Hmph..." I stomp my feet on the bed, with no effect what so ever, still angry "Shameless."

My mystery guy : " Hehe... how about this then. Let's meet up...That way you can prove to me that you really are the cutest, lovable and adorable being. "

Krista : " Eh?"

My mystery guy : "You might even win an argument over me."

Krista : " Eh?"

A moment of awkward silence followed afterwards whilst I'm desperately trying to fix my brain to answer back.

I hear him taking a deep breath, maybe he wants to say more?I don't know but I finally manage to squeeze a few words " Ar..are you sure?"

My mystery guy : "Yes. I'm sure." he answers resolutely. "If you want to..of course."

Krista : " Want.." I answer qunickly and a little louder than I intend to. I compose myself and answer properly " I want to."
