Chapter 4 - The explanation 1

The next day, Maya's mom was surprised on how they slept on the couch so she quickly checked the time and saw that she was late so she woke Maya up saying "Maya! wake up, were late again . Mom can't I sleep in today said Maya in a lazing and tired voice. Maya, you Know you can't sleep in today, you just bearly started school yesterday and also, I can't be late to work,so just get your lazy ass up now! replied her mom in an angry voice. Ok mom I get it, I'm going upstairs now said Maya. As Maya got up from the couch, she stretched her body lazily and went upstairs. After some minutes, Maya came downstairs and asked what's for breakfast. She didn't see her mom in the dining room so she went to the kitchen and found her mom serving the food. She was shocked at what her mom was wearing because her mom was old fashioned so she asked her mom if she was going to work or a party. Her mom just smiled at her question and said she was going to work. But mom you look so pretty in this dress and make up. Hope your not thinking of finding another dad for me because I'm very ok as we are said Maya. Her mom laughed hardly and said "No maya, I'm not. I just decided to look nice and go in line with the trend. Is it that bad? or should I change to my normal style? Maya just smiled at her mom and said no and gave her a thumbs up and told her to keep it up. After their conversation, they went to the dining to eat. The atmosphere at the dining table was rather harmonious than before. After they finished eating, they went to their car and turned on the radio. Fortunately, the radio was playing their favorite which was Dynamite by BTS and they both sang together happily. As they were nearing the school, her mom turned off the radio and told Maya that the school doesn't allow radio because of the noise. They both smiled at each and stayed silent until they got to the school's gate. Maya got down from her mom's car and told her good bye and her mom left. As she was going inside the school,she saw Chloe and ran to her. When Chloe saw her, she was excited and said good morning bestie and Maya responded morning to you bestie and both of them laughed at each other. When their laughing died down, Chloe asked Maya why she has Panda eyes. O! this,Maya said as she touched the Panda eyes. As she wanted to explain, she stopped talking and started looking at one particular place. Chloe was wondering why she stopped talking so she looked at the direction where Maya was looking and saw that Maya was looking at Leonard. She giggled at how Maya was lost looking at Leonard and she snapped her finger in front of Maya and Maya got back to reality. Before Maya could speak, Chloe interrupted her saying "I thought you said Leonard wasn't handsome so why were you staring at him like that"? asked Chloe in a questioning voice. Maya wanted to retort back to Chloe but she couldn't because she was lost in words so she just stayed silent. When Chloe saw that Maya couldn't say anything to defend herself, she raised her head highly and with a proud voice she asked, "so is someone surrending" ? Maya closed her eyes and took a deep breath and said alright I surrender. He's very cute and handsome and I think I have a crush on him said Maya in a fast voice. Chloe opened her eyes in shock and asked Maya "did I just hear a something wrong or I have ear pain"? Maya replied in a calm voice and said you heard correctly and I will not repeat myself. OMG! I said it. I can't still believe it. It's like the romantic movies really pays off said Chloe. Would you stop that Chloe,I thought you said no teasing said Maya. Alright I'm sorry. What do want to Know about Leonard asked Chloe. I want to Know everything about him responded Maya.
