CHAPTER 5
IT WAS SUNDAY MORNING. I'M LOOKING FOR MY PHONE TO SEE WHAT TIME IS IT.. 'OH 5:30' AND ITS STILL DARK.. I WENT OUT OF MY BED AND PREPARED MYSELF FOR SOME JOG OUTSIDE…
AS I OPEN THE MAIN DOOR OF OUR HOUSE..THERE IS SOMETHING… OR SHOULD I SAY SOMEONE THAT SURPRISE ME… UHH STEFFEN….WHAT THE HELL IS HE DOING HERE?!! WHY IS HE WASHING HIS CAR AT OUR FRONTYARD. HALF NAKED? WHY DOES HE REALLY LIKE EXPOSING HIS BODY.. IT LOOK LIKE HE MADE OUR YARD A PICTURIAL PLACE… WELL, I..I ..I ADMIT THAT HIS BODY IS GORGEOUS WITH SIX PACK ABS.. HOLY SH*T!!! STILL I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS MAN IS STAYED HERE WITHOUT ME KNOWING..
"EHEMM…" I TRIED TO GET HIS ATTENTION.. HE TURN INTO ME.
"HELLO, GOOD MORNING LADY" HE SMIRKED AT ME.
"WHY ARE U HERE SO EARLY AT OUR HOUSE? AND WHY ARE YOU WASHING YOUR CAR AT THE FRONTYARD… ITS NOT THAT YOU'RE HERE AT OUR HOUSE, YOU CAN BE FREE LIKE ITS YOUR HOUSE. AND YEAH WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?" I SAID WHILE I PUT BOTH MY HANDS IN MY WAIST. I GOT ANNOYED TO SEE THE WATER HE USES FLOWS IN MY SHOES.
"ITS SO EARLY IN THE MORNING, XENA…. AND YOU ASKED A LOT OF QUESTIONS.. LETS JUST SAY THAT I'M HERE CAUZE YOUR MOM WANTS ME TO. AND I SLEPT IN YOUR ROOM..I JUST GOT UP EARLIER THAN YOU…"HE SMILED AT ME AND GET BACK HIS ATTENTION TO HIS CAR.
*DID HE JUST SAID HE SLEPT WITH ME? WAIT DID HE FORGOT THAT IM HIS STUDENT*
"ARE YOU SAYING THAT YOU SLEPT WITH ME IN MY BED…AND MOM JUST ALLOWED YOU TO DO THAT? BUT DID YOU FORGOT ALREADY THAT.."I ASKED SERIOUSLY.
" YEAH.. BUT I DIDN'T TOUCH YOU EVEN YOUR FINGERTIP..YOU WERE THE ONE WHO HUG ME SO TIGHT.. AND I CAN'T SLEEP PROPERLY CAUZE YOU SNOORED SO LOUD…"HE SAID.
"HEY! I WOULDN'T SNOOR…" I FEEL ASHAMED AT MYSELF
"HOW WOULD YOU KNOW IF YOUR ASLEEP?" HE SAID. I CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE..HE REALLY SAID THAT SHAMEFUL THING INFRONT OF MY FACE. I IGNORED HIM AND STARTED TO WALK OUT.
"WHERE ARE YOU GOING?" HE ASKED. BUT I DID'T TURN MY FACE TO HIM.
"TO A PLACE WHERE YOU CANNOT BE FOUND" I SAID.
"WELL, YOU CAN'T FIND THAT PLACE CAUSE YOU CAN SEE ME EVERYTIME." HE SAID TO ME. I CAN HEAR HIS CHUCKLE. BUT I JUST CONTINUE TO WALK UNTIL I REACH OUT AT OUR GATE.
"THAT MORON! WHY DOES FATHER CHOOSE THIS GUY?" I SAID TO MYSELF.
I PUT MY EARPHONES ON. AND STARTED TO JOG.
I JOG ALMOST THOUSANDS OF MILES. THEN I REST A LITTLE BIT IN A BENCH NEAR THE BEACH…. WOW I CAN SEE IT FROM HERE. THE BEAUTIFUL LANDSCAPE OF A SUNRISE. I CLOSE MY EYES AND I JUST FEEL SOME BREATH IN FRONT OF ME. SO I OPEN MY EYES AND SAW STEFFEN RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME WITH SOME BOTTLE OF WATER.
"ARE YOU FOLLOWING ME?" HE SAID TO ME.
"SERIOUSLY, I SHOULD BE THE ONE WHO ASK YOU THAT QUESTION…ARE YOU FOLLOWING ME? COZ IM THE FIRST WHO COME OUT IN THE GATE.."I SAID..*THIS GUY IS INSANE! WHAT A PROFESSOR!
"NO, IM NOT FOLLOWING YOU..MAYBE COINCIDENCE.. IM HERE WITH MY FRIENDS..THEY ARE NOW AT THE BEACH…DO YOU WANT TO COME?"
"OKAY.. IF CAN'T BOTHER YOU AND YOUR FRIENDS" I SAID. OF COURSE I WONT DISTURB THEM..I JUST WANT TO DO SIGHT SEEING THERE.
I FOLLOWED STEFFEN TO WHERE HIS FRIENDS ARE…. I JUST SAW A PRETTY GIRL WEARING A BIKINI APPROACHING STEFFEN..SHE'S TALLER THAN ME, SEXIER THAN ME BUT IM MUCH PRETTIER THAN HER..CHEEEHH.
"STEFF!! BABE!!!WHAT TOOK YOU SO LONG!! I THOUGHT YOU JUST GONNA BUY ME SUNDAE" SHE SAID SO LOUD.. *GEEZZ..SHE IS STEFFENS GF? WHAT A BITCH…*.
THEN SUDDENLY SHE NOTICE ME AT THE BACK OF STEFFEN. THEN HER BROW FURROWED.

*I AM HIS FIANCEE.*MY MIND SHOUTED
"WELL, BABE.. UHMM SHE'S...M-MY..COUSIN! RIGHT XENA? AND I FORGOT YOUR SUNDAE COZ COUSIN CALLED ME" HE LIED WHILE HIS FACE SAYS TO ME TO AGREE WITH IT.
*HAHAHAHAHA…THIS IS SO WEIRD*
"YEAH…YEAH.. HE'S MY COUSIN..HAHAHA. NICE TO MEET YOU?!" I LIED. OF COURSE IT'S THE RIGHT THING TO DO FOR NOW…I MUST FIND A WAY SO THAT THIS ENGAGEMENT WILL BE CANCELLED WITHOUT MOM BEING HURT.
" OH REALLY?..HELLO, IM NICH JANE FOSTER. STEFFEN'S GIRLFRIEND…HMM...STEFF NEVER MENTION HE HAS A BEAUTIFUL COUSIN.." SHE SAID SO NICELY.
"WELL, AHH… IM..UHH" I LOOK AT STEFFEN COZ I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO SAY.

" AH.. OK.. COME AND JOIN US. JIMBO! KLENNT! STEFFEN'S COUSIN IS HERE!" SHE CALLED STEFF'S FRIENDS.
"STEFFEN'S COUSIN? WHO?"JIMBO AND KLENNT SAID AT THE SAME TIME. AND RAN OUT FROM THE COTTAGE. AS THEY SAW ME. THEY THINK ABOUT IT FOR A SECOND.
"YOU..YOU ARE SO FAMILIAR..DID I SEE YOU BEFORE?" JIMBO SAID.
* SEE ME? BEFORE?WHERE?*
"YOU MUST BE MISTAKEN BIMBO. THIS KIND OF BEAUTY IS SO UNIQUE. BY THE WAY, IM KLENNT. PLEASURE TO MEET YOU" KLENNT SAID.
"IM JIMBO…THEY CALL ME BIMBO..BUT YOU CAN CALL ME 'HONEY SO I CAN ALSO CALLED YOU 'DARLING COZ YOU DIDN'T MENTION YOUR NAME TO US" HE WINKED AT ME.
*SO CHEZZY*
" UHMM, IM XENA… XENA WONG. ITS NICE TO MEET HANDSOME GUYS IN THIS BEAUTIFUL WEATHER"I SMILED TO THEM. THEY BLUSHED SO MUCH.
"WHOOAA…WHO? WHOSE HANDOME? ARE YOU TALKING TO ME?" JIMBO FLUSTERED.
"UHHHH.. STOP,MY COUSIN MUST BE ANNOYED BY YOU GUYS. LETS JUST GET BACK INSIDE THE COTTAGE." STEFFEN INTERFERED AND WE HEAD INSIDE AT THE COTTAGE.
I DID NOT REGRET THAT I JOIN THEM CAUZE I HAD SO MUCH FUN . JIMBO ARE TAKING PICTURES AT THE SEA. SO I GO TO HIM TO SEE IF HE IS REALLY GOOD AT IT.
"HEY, CAN I SEE THE PICTURES?"I ASK POLITELY.
"YES SURE.. YOU KNOW IM A PHOTOGRAPHER.I LOVE TAKING PICTURES AT BEAUTIFUL LANDSCAPES. DO YOU WANT ME TO TAKE PICTURES OF YOU HERE?THIS IS THE GOOD SPOT" JIMBO SAID.
*WOW..HE'S SO GOOD AT IT*
"IF ITS OKAY THEN I'LL GIVE IT A TRY"I AGREE. AS I MADE A POSE..I KNOW JIMBO ADMIRED ME CAUZE HE ALWAYS COUGH AND BLUSHING A LOT EVERYTIME HE TAKE A CAPTURED ME. AS I TURN MY HEAD FOR THE NEXT POSE. I SAW STEFFEN LOOKING AT ME WHILE HIS JAW DROPPED AND GAVE ME A EVIL EYES AS HE SAW ME POSE IN FRONT OF JIMBO AND BESIDE HIM IS NICH WHO IS TRYING TO GET AN ATTENTION FROM HIM.
"SERIOUSLY? HOW COULD YOU BE SO PHOTOGENIC..I WANT YOU TO BE MY MODEL. LETS-" JIMBO DIDN'T FINISH HIS WORD. AS STEFFEN DRAGGED ME AWAY FROM JIMBO.
"NO, BRO..SHE'S JUST SO YOUNG FOR THAT…I'LL BE TAKING HER HOME, AUNTIE MUST BE WORRIED NOW. TAKE CARE OF NICH FOR TODAY..SAFELY DRIVE HER HOME" HE ADVICES JIMBO..AND STARTED TO WALK.
I LOOK AT NICH BUT SHE'S BUSY AT HER PHONE SO I DIDN'T BOTHER TO SAY GOODBYE..
*STEFFEN IS REALLY SOMETHING…ITS NOT LIKE I DID SOMETHING WRONG. WHY DOES HE DRAGGED ME LIKE THAT. IM NOT A KID ANYMORE*
HE OPEN HIS CAR DOOR TO LET ME IN AND AS HE GET INSIDE. I JUST CAN'T HELP MY SELF TO GIVE HIM A BAD TEMPER AS HE DROVE ME HOME..ON OUR WAY. I REALIZE THAT I AM NOT THE ONE HAVING A BAD MOOD IN HERE. ITS SO QUIET…
* NAHHH WHATEVER, IM NOT HAVING A CONVERSATION WITH HIM ANYWAY..TSKK"
