As I got back to my senses....I avoided his gaze and turning my heads focus onto another thing.
And then he slowly let go of my waist and supports me until we came near his bike. After that, he was about to hold me agin when I stopped him and get things on my own, slowly lifting my feet to sat on his bike.
As I sat properly he gave me another spare of his helmet. I grabbed it and instantly put it on my head.
After I locked it he sat there too infront of me and starts off his engine.
Before he could start, I slowly looked at him before saying, "Drive Slowly"....I almost whispered and he didn't sapre me a glance but focused only on his driving.
As the ride goes.....I felt less triggered...He was driving not fast and not slow but in a right and exact one.
A few more minutes passed and then we reached my home.
He got off first and took off his helmet while I'm doing the same.
After I took it off. I stretched my arm and handed it to him.
"Thank you"....I said in a calm voice before slowly getting off his bike.
My knees are still weak but not so weak than before. For now my knees can bear a little more walk.
After thanking him. I didn't let another word came out from my mouth. I stayed silent, walking inside my house closing the gates.
But I couldn't help but to glance over him and I saw him staring at me.
So I gave him a, 'What do you want?' look.
"Nothing, It's a little bit chilly and weird for a stone woman like you get to say thank you"....he said....
And what did he say? Stone Woman?
"Tsk! Jerk, I shouldn't have thanked you then"...I said answering back.
"Well, you couldn't take it back anymore, besides I've done a big part so it's definitely right to thank me"....he proudly said while wearing his helmet.
With that, I could only glare at him, not taking any more glances at him and when I heard his loud bike's angine sound moving away, I went in and locked the door.
After I locked it I leaned against it and began exhaling heavily.
As I calmed down, I started to find the switch and turned it on.
As the light covered the whole room. My eyes landed on a comfortably sitting young lady at my single couch.
It's Lesley...
"What are you doing here? You surprised me"...I said.
"Really, Is that a sound of someone surprised"....she ask while grinning from ear to ear.
"What now?"
"Just curious why you aren't still home, this time"....she said.
"Wh---"....cutting me off must be really her hobby.
"Oh...Don't think of any excuses, I saw you"...she said while walking near me.
"It's not what you think Young lady, Besides he offered me in the first place"....I said nonchalantly while fixing my things.
"Waaahh!! Don't you know that I envy you so much"...she said and hugged me.
"What's there to envy, I didn't want it"...I said proceeding to the kitchen to cook something.
"But still, he offered you, If the whole university knows, you might be attacked right now"....and she laughed while sitting on the dining area.
"By the way, Why are you late, Karen says that you're early to close today?"
"I've got one stubborn customer, and silly me, I forgot to change the sign outside so even if we are close the sign still says that we're open"....I explained.
"You mean Wayne?"....she asked.
And I nod "Yes that Jerk"....I said while cooking. "Hey dear, I told you not to call him that anymore, hmph".....she pouted and I turned to face her.
"What can I do, He's really a jerk"....I said and she couldn't stop pouting just because I called her "crush" a Jerk.
"Alright I won't"....I surrendered and I notice that her mood lit up...She walked near me and hugged me from the side. "My bestfriend is still the best, although she has a unique and dark traits"
"Hey, what dark, do I kill someone?"...I asked protestig.
"No you didn't silly, I called it that because you don't like associating with others, you don't help someone even though it's an urgent matter, and lastly you don't want others to find out what really goong on in your mind and lastly Your eyes hide the most of your expression, because even If I am your bestfriend, I don't know your deepest secret and hardships, your looks always are expressionless, not wanting me to know, if you're okay or not"....she explained and she's right about it all. That's me, so I hugged her back.
"Thank you for understanding me"....I whispered and we released because I remeber that I was cooking something.
"Now, finish that, I'm already starving she said, with that, a small smile has curved in my lips as I turned to face the food I'm cooking.
After I finished cooking, we ate in silence,
"Hey Lesley, why are you here all of a sudden?"...I asked.
"I just wanna check on you"...she said and finished her food.
After that we fix ourselves and went to bed.
As we lay down, we both stared at the ceiling not uttering a word to one another.
Until....she asked a sudden question.
"I'm curious, you are already 18 years old and it's weird you don't even look up to men, or any ideal man you have in your head?"...she said.
"Why curious about that?"...I asked not looking at her.
"Nothing it's just it's making me feel that you like, you know, same sex"....she said.
"Hey, even if I don't look up to men doesn't mean I like the same sex as I am"....I said and faced her.
"Just joking but, I'm reay curious, do you have a past lover that you don't want to forget?".....she asked
"Nope, there isn't, and I was a loner too back then, so when I am only a child such friends don't exist in my world, so how can I have a lover"....I explained..
"Oh maybe that's why"...she said.
"So enough of asking that and let's sleep, that's why I don't want to share the same bed as you, you will just ask me such questions"....I said and laugh.
"Well it's fun asking you so now I know your answer now, I'm going to sleep"...she said and we didn't face each other as we sleep taking both sides of the bed....
To be continued......
