"I-I'll be back" then I head down to take and bring up my bag.
That was close. And my heart was racing now. What is happening to me?
My simple student life was becoming complicated!?
"Be careful, my dear daughter" was I on sighed?
"Where did you go, Mom, earlier?" where I just about to step into the staircase.
"I'm in the garden and did you wash your dishes?" where I'm stepping up the staircase.
"Yeah, 'cause I thought you left" was he still thinking about that?
I think that moment there's a possible that we had kissed if we don't have companions. I think it is.
"What are you thinking, sis, that you almost stumble?" and we stopped from stepping up when I almost stumbled.
"Our project" then we continue to step up until we reached in the living room.
"Really!?" Nina whispered to me when he saw Alex.
"Guys, this is my sister Nina, my only sister who is next to me" and they look to Nina.
"Hi" were they greet each other.
"I heard you'll going to sleep over here for your project" Nina said and I sit next to Blaze.
"Yeah" Chanel shortly answered and she chuckled.
"Good luck and see you later" and Nina head to her bedroom.
As we continue to do our project and Alex head towards me were their eyes was on Alex. When I saw a feet heading towards us.
"Let's eat so you can think fully later" Mom said and she look to Alex.
"We'll finish this a bit and we'll be there in a minute" I answered while we're still continue doing our project.
"Alright, oh wait! Where is Nina?" when Mom about to leave.
"She's on her bedroom" I answered then she look at me and Alex as well of what we're doing.
"Mom, I'll go first to eat!" Kent shout out said and a door opens. Must be Nina.
"Are we going to eat now?" Nina asked Mom while we're still continue doing the project.
"Yes and let's go ahead first" where Mom was starting to walk towards the staircase.
"Are you still not hungry guys?" Nina asked us because there's still no one who stand up from our position.
"We do but we just want to finish some part" I answered when Alex and I accidentally touch our hands where it's just I and Alex knows of what happened of were I'm about to get the data sheet I'm looking. Then he look at me right when we accidentally touch our hands.
But did he feel anything?
"Ok" and Nina leave after I get back the data sheet and Alex lift off his hand.
"I'm done" Duke said and he fix his things.
"Me too" Blazd said then he fix his things too as I'm almost done too.
"Me too" then I save the file. And Alex fix my things.
I think I'm not just grateful that I met him Alex as a friend but a blessing too.
"I'm done too" Chanel said while I'm turning off my laptop. And we waited her to fix her things up.
"I think we need just to rest after we eat" Duke said as he stand up.
"I think so too" as I, Alex, and Blaze stand up too.
"Let's go" Chanel said when she stand up then we head down the dining room.
Dining room..
"Take a sit and we had just done eating" Mom said while she picking up the dishes and we sit.
"Seems delicious, Tita, from the smell of it" Blaze said as I stand up again to get dishes for us.
"Can I ask you, Alex!?" Mom said when she sig in the middle chair.
"Yes Tita, what is it?" then Chanel, Duke and Blaze looked to Mom, while I'm putting dishes in the table.
"Where do you live?" why I think I'm the nervous one here!?
"Just nearby here, Tita" Alex calmly said. And I sit after.
"How old are you?" she's like interviewing Alex.
"Come on, let's eat guys" and I start to scoop the adobo garlic fried rice.
"I'm 25" we're on the same age.
"Oh! You're age as her, I mean she's 25 too, how about you guys?" while the four scooping of meals.
"I and Duke were 23" Blaze said as he done scooping as well as Duke, Chanel and Alex.
"I'm 24, Tita" Chanel said where I just about to scoop a meal.
"I see, so where do you live?" Mom asked the three where I'm on sigh thinking that why I feel relief when its not just Alex who asks of Mom.
"I live in Little Beverly Hills Village, Tita, just the next village" Chanel said as we continue eating.
"Me, was on Villa Amore" Blaze said and my phone vibrates.
"And I, live in Toronto, Street #65" Duke said were I took out my phone and look.
"I see, enjoy eating and I will just get the ice cream cups and hope you like" then Mom stands up.
"Shanie dear, would you help me to bring those" Mom said before she went to the kitchen.
"Of course, Mom" and I stand up then we head to the kitchen.
Kitchen..
"Did you make the ice cream? And you put into the cups?!" when Mom taking out the cups of ice cream.
"Yeah, I made those and why I should not put into the cups?" she forgot probably of what I said before.
"Nevermind but what is the flavor?" were I and get the tray to put those cups of ice cream.
"Raspberry" when Mom close the refrigerator.
"By the way, what time will Alex go home?" while we're putting the cups of ice cream in the tray.
"After this dinner" and I head back to the dining room.
Dining room..
"Hope you like it" as I gave the small cups of ice cream.
"Oh! Raspberry!?" were the three said in unison when they saw the flavor on top of the cover.
"Yeah, and actually, we have a business of ice cream" when we all opened our cups of ice cream.
"Really!?" Duke said in shock like he can't believe.
"What's the name of your shop?" Blaze asked were we all starting to eat our ice cream.
"Hello!" I retorted as we continue eating ice cream.
"Why hello?" when my phone vibrates and I took it.
"That's our Mom and Dad got meet while they eating in separate table" while I'm reading Alex's message.
"Oh! That's a touching history" Chanel said were I'm texting Alex.
"I agree" Blaze said as we still continue eating ice cream and where my message was sending.
"Can we bring this up?" Duke asked were Alex was just done eating his cup of ice cream.
"Yeah, you're going upstairs now?" as we still eating ice cream.
"Yes, and can we go to your veranda?" Chanel asked where they stand up and carrying their cups of ice cream as well the spoons.
"Yeah, you can and for you can unwind" then I stand up as well Alex after he drink his glass of water.
"I'll be with Alex first then I will head there" and they head upstairs were I and Alex was heading out of the house.
"Why you didn't wear a jacket? It's cold here" Alex said as I embracing myself.
"Wear this" where he take off his leather jacket and he put to me.
"Thanks" then we stopped from walking behind the mailbox.
"Did you feel warm now?" while we're waiting for a taxi that will cross by.
"Yeah, a little" why it's cold now?
"I think this makes you feel better" when he hug me from my back. I can't believe this is happening.
Does Alex likes me?
"Can I ask you?" I know that Alex loves me but I don't know of that love is as friend only. So I just want to make sure from him.
"Yeah, what is it?" as he still hugging me.
"Did you perhaps like me?" hope no one can hear us.
"Not just a friend!? Yes, I do like you, Sha" and he turns me to face him. Then he hold my chin and he slowly moving his head towards me until his lips touched mine. And he broke then he back to kiss me again until I kiss him back as we slowly kissing each other. Then we stop and broke the kiss and we hug each other.
"I saw a taxi now coming over" as we still hugging each other.
But why I kiss him back? What have I done?!
He might think that I like him now.
"I'll see you tomorrow, bye" when he take off his jacket on me as the taxi came and he kissed me again then he head inside the taxi.
"Head in now before I close this door" where he already sat inside the taxi.
"Ok and take care" and I head inside the house.
