Chapter 34 - Dashed off

something always gave him away maybe it's the repeated uhms or the sweaty palms

"You what".Leyla stared at him.Her hair was packed loosely but somehow it just made her more attractive

"I".He started but before the next word came out from his mouth his stomach grumbled.she let out a light chuckle, maximus recalled that day he had no idea where to go and she let out that cute chuckle then

But if something was different,Her laugh sounded more cuter and he found himself at peace just listening to her

"seems someone needs a free pass to the food court".she smirked

"yeah,I do".He said

"Honk, honk". Maximus heard it,that means his dad had called

"oh shit, sorry this was fun but gotta go". Maximum said as he dashed off

"Oh my God"

"what did he say ". Maximum hurriedly tugged on his seatbelt

"Nothing much sir,he asked where we were "

"What did you say". Maximus asked out of breath.The moment he heard that horn he started running and he didn't stop until he got into the car

"I told him of the repairs at the usual route and that's why we are running late".

"I wonder who that guy is but no matter how you slice it,He is rude.Who bumps into a girl and doesn't say sorry

But he did say sorry,but that doesn't count".Leyla thought to herself,after that encounter.ahe found her hunger intensifying

"Seems I've also heard that voice before".she added

"Excuse me".she beckoned on the lady near the counter.Maybe she's the waitress or something

"could I get fries and a strawberry milkshake ".

"coming right up ".she said as she went to the back

"I am so drained and worst of all , I haven't done my homework".Leyla brushed the strands falling down her face

"Here you go".The waitress brought her order and placed it on the table

"Thank you".she said as she picked one and munched it,sipping her milkshake in between.

"yeah,I should come out more often".Leyla said as she exited the mall and headed home

A hundred to one odds that my parents are home and all rests on the shoulders of that therapist.Hope they don't start arguing again cos if they did this is going to be a long night

Leyla opened the door just a little bit and stuck her head in it.She looked left and right,seems no one was in

"pheww".she heaved a sigh of relief and stepped inside.

"Ugh".she groaned as she patted her belly.That strawberry milkshake really hit the spot.The only thing on her mind was her homework.The homework was fairly easy so she was done within ten minutes

"what to do,what to do?".she internally asked herself.Her room was fairly spacious,windows at every corner letting that bright warm air envelope the room.she had a shelf at the farthest corner which housed a lot of old books,films and journals.
