Chapter 7 - 7.Mysterious neighbor ♡.

Bondi Beach has a very nice and breathtaking view.

New place , new beginnings .

New people . No Aunt Shay, No Sam .

OMG Sam! I forgot about him .

Do you think I should have told him about me moving . Maybe or Maybe not . Were not that close anyway . Less men, less stress .

But why does my heart tell me that I want him here . Fine I wish he was but I don't know. So , without him life can still go on.

The House full of boxes.

I hate this. UNPACKING. Sammy and I had lots of stuff and by lots I mean , so many . Its going to be long day.

**

Sammy gladly threw the last box into the large garbage bins and we go back to the house. Finally glad that we're done with all the unpacking . We decide to head out and get a essential kitchen supplies inculding breakfast things that will only last for a day or two until we have a list of everything were going to need.

While untying my shoe laces with one hand I remove my hair band with the other . I haven't heard a thing from Sam. Why did he just disappear. All of a sudden without a warning or maybe a goodbye note .

He's a man . All of them are like this . Just like Marcus

The next second my clothes were on the floor, I removed my bra and dropped my panties and made a bee-line to the bathroom. I'm so tired and didn't have time to look for a towel to cover up my self.

I came out of the bathroom humming ocean eyes by Billie Eilish. The shower made me feel better and my muscles were a little sore from all the boxes and furniture we had to move in . It's actually been a long day.

A cool breeze managed to seep through the thin curtain material and blew my hair . I quickly glanced up only to see the curtain from the next house being closed .

Holy cow the curtains we open all along . Mxm pervert .

Sam left and now some pervert just had the pleasure of seeing me naked .

Why am I actually singing about oceans eyes when there's none to drown in. I jumped under my bed covers and it took me seconds and I dozed off .

Smack..

Smack...

The pillow smacked my face for the second time and I jolted and sat on my butt with my heart beating very fast.

"Is that the only way you can wake a person up " , I complained .

"You wouldn't be asking me that if you knew how hungry I was ", she complained .

I took a gray hoodie, black leggings and wore my black vans . I had my hair tied up in a ponytial and I was good to go.

Sammy had faded blue ripped boyfriend jeans , a white tank top, zip up hoodie and converse sneakers .

"What are we having ", I asked as the engine came to life.

"Maybe some Chinese or go to Starbucks " she answered. Not giving a straight answer but an option instead.

We drove in a comfortable silence and some background music .

So Chinese will do for this mood. Why am I sad . He left so what I didn't like him anyway it was just business .

Just business. Why am I fooling myself.

Sammy was already by my side of the car opening the door.

"Quite the gentleman" , I said sarcastically.

She snorted , closed the door. And jogged a few feet until she was next to me. And intertwined her arm with mine.

We got inside when we saw the neon light with open in red and blue and went to take seats. We sat at a booth overlooking the sea and it was very beautiful at night .

It was a pretty restaurant , neatly decorated in varing shades of blue and a few paintings hanging on the wall .

The bar had a variety of sauces.If this was a club those sauces could have been replaced by booze.

You could smell the faint aromas of the foods being prepared.

"Hey darlings", a blond girl startled for a second there . Sammy was distracted and so was I .

I was gone.

Very far away from here.

She had blond hair cascading over her shoulders , green eyes , nude liptick which matched her nails . Tanned like skin .She looked like she was in her early twenties.

She wore a mid thigh long skirt even though part of it was hidden but the apron she wore, ankle boots possible because she was on a night shift . This restaurant is opened for 24 hours.

"Sorry miss what can I get you" she said bringing me back to earth again. God this girl is a life saver .

"Umm please get me what she ordered please " , I answered.

She turned in her heal to go get our beverages first but I called her again asking for directions to the rest room. She directed me and I thanked her.

I hurried there but suddenly hit something hard with my face. I'm so glad it isn't a wall but someone's chest. The persons phone hit the ground and I bent dwon to try pick it up but our foreheads bumped into each other.

I felt like the skull was about to crack and a little dizzy.

I took in the man's appearance from the bottom since i was facing downwards . He had on nice dress shoes . Tailored char coal suit that had his muscles showing and a cold breeze blew from the nearby window and that is when I got a whiff of his cologne.

I know this smell , why does it smell so familiar.

Bum bum.....

Bum bum.....

Bum bumm.....

He brought out hand so that I would place the phone on his palms.

Oh no..

That's it I know this man.

"Thank you", it's him . Like yeah it's him .

The tailored suite the shoes and the wrist watch. All of this could have been a hint before I decided to bring my face up.

Dang it..

"I'm so sorry ", he said in a soft tone . His husky deep voice was like music to me. It sent warm tingling chills down my spine. No matter how mad I was at him he still had an effect on me .

"No he's not! ", another voice said. I was stunned for a second and turned to look at where the voice come from.

Who is she ?

Next to me was a tall , slender brunette. She had a little red dress that had a low cutting and one could swear that she was a prostitute . All her breasts were exposed I'm sure that only her nipples were covered.

She took in my appearance . She had her face caked up with make up .Her dress was only a few centimetres below her butt .

I'm sure she's one of the town sluts or something. She had stilettos on and they were not just high but huge also . I'm sure she's a relative of big foots'.

"What are you looking at bitch ", she said in a sassed tone with her $2 cheap accent.

"Excuse me " , I asked. Who the hell does she think she is . "But he's the one who ..." , but she cut me off.

" You're the one to apologise to him cause you cracked his phone"

" Narisa there's no need . I'm the one at fault here .. ", but he was cut off too . Can't this woman let a person speak .

"Honey listen , let me handle this ", she said but the first word of her sentence shocked me than her bitchy behavoir.

Honey? Like seriously honey?

" Listen Sam I really don't...", and again she did it . Who is she ? Seriously this time.

"Did you just say Sam " . She asked pointing a finger at me .

"You know her ?" She said in a fake chuckle.

"Yes...." for the love of I don't know what why do they keep cutting me off

" No . She's just a long lost friends "

"Friends !!! Is that why yiu were busy looking at her and not paying attention to me", She screamed.

"No not freinds but she was once just a business associate so it's sort of a friendship" she asked her.

🎶Does he even know what we are.

There's no way that I'll end up being with you

But friends don't look at friends that way🎶

"Are you .." . What ever she said after that I didn't hear . I stood there shocked. Shattered. He denied knowing me . We stood there staring into each others eyes. I stared intensely.

I was unbelievable in ever kind if way. If you came and told me that this would happen a few weeks back I would have denied but now it's so impossible to believe. But what was there to not believe. He said it himself .

"How could you Sam?" I heard Sammy say next to me . She was just as shocked as I was.

" Who said you should speak?" She screamed at Sammy now. Sam and I were still in our little bubble still undisturbed by what was happening around us .

" who told you to breath ?" And the manager who was about to break the little argument was forming before things got out of hand found himself in a fit of laughter instead.

"Baby , look she's making fun of .. ugh Sam !" Sam blinked a couple of times before looking at her.

My cheeks were wet and my bottom lip trembling. This was so unbelievable. I took one step backward and tried to clears my vision by wiping some of the tears that clouded my eyes.

I took one last glance . From right I saw her lifting her hand to hit me but something splashed on her caked make-up face.

I looked on my left still shocked of what just happened. Sammy clicked her tongue and said thank you to the girl on the table .

" she deserved it ",the girl muttered under her breath and a boyfriend let out a soft laugh .

I couldn't even register everything before I was dragged away from the crowd . But before I could leave someone held my arm .

" close your curtians if you decide not to carry a towel to the bathroom " , we didn't make any eye contact . Sammy widened her eyes and frowned them in confusion.

He released my arm and I let a silent sigh to finally go home. Sammy drove and had to stop at the nearest starbucks truck we saw. I wasn't hungry anymore but Sammy was.

One thing that shocked me the most was that Sam was that perverted neighbour from earlier today.

I got in my room . Did my night routine and dozed off the moment I got in bed. I had a long day , a throbbing head ache and an aching heart.
