Aixela's Pov,
"Oh my! Finally! I can speak," I sighed as I lay on the couch.
He immediately entered his room.
I picked up my phone as soon as it vibrated. Officer Yzerman sent me a picture of the ingredients she bought for the yogurt.
"Good luck, Officer Yzerman! I hope it will be delicious so that you can win his heart," I replied to her chat.
I returned my phone and looked at it when it vibrated again.
Did she forget something?
I took it again and thought she was chatting again, but it was Denise. Asking how I am. Her timing was right. I entered the bathroom and immediately called Denise.
"Why? Did something happen?" She asked.
"I've been thinking about what you said in the past," I replied.
"Which one?"
"The one about Officer Dy. If he's gay?"
"Why? Did you confirm it already?"
"Not yet. But I want to know."
"Hmmm... And why would you like to know."
"Because... Just because."
"Hmmm?"
"Denise, could you please--"
"Okay, okay. What do you want?"
"How do you know if someone is gay?"
When I found out the answer to my question, I immediately said goodbye to Denise and when I came out of the bathroom, Officer Dy came up to me. He just raised an eyebrow at me so I came out.
Before he closes the door I asked him something. "What's your favorite color?" He just looked at me and closed the door. Should I punch him? The sheer simplicity of my question.
¬¬¬
When he came out of the bathroom, I stared at him, which annoyed him.
"Why?" He asked.
"You're so handsome, aren't you?"
Denise told me if he liked or blushed if I compliment him, he's not gay. But if he got disgusted with that compliment, he's gay.
"Are you taking drugs?" He just said and entered his room.
Argh! Now, I hate myself for saying that. I just slapped my mouth.
"I was just kidding. Actually, you look like a poor rooster when you just take a bath!" I shouted to his room. Maybe he'll think that I have a crush on him. Eew!
I was surprised when he opened his door so I immediately ran to the bathroom.
¬¬¬
The next day, I continued to observe him. I'm wearing a pink dress and pink clip now to see his reaction.
"Woah! Why do you look like a lost pig now?" He asked.
I just stared at him and tried to smile.
"You're just jealous. Do you want my clip?" I jested.
"What am I going to do with that? Give it to the witch?" He teased.
I gestured as I'll hit him with a punch that he just laughed at.
Go on, just laugh at me for now. But wait until I proved if you're really gay or not!
When we entered the precinct it was as if people's eyes were magnetized to me. Is it because of what I'm wearing? Do I really look like a lost pig? HUHU
"Ohhh! Xela, you look so pink today!" Detective Givenchy greeted us when he saw us approaching their table.
I showed him a thumbs up and down to ask if I look nice or not. He smiled and showed me a thumbs up. I raised my eyebrows as if saying, "really?"
"Haha, yes! You really look good today," He complimented me with another thumbs up that made me blush. Aww! Haha!
I gestured as if saying he also looks so fine today to give back the compliment. He just grinned at what I said. Maybe he's used to compliments. Not like this one. It seems that it is even mandatory if anyone compliments Officer Dy.
And speaking of, why is he making face while looking at us? I also looked at him.
He grinned and shook his head. "You can understand each other without talking."
"Hi, Officer Dy!" Officer Yzerman suddenly greeted. "I heard you also love yogurt. We're the same. Actually, I made some yesterday. It looks like I made too much yogurt. So here, just take it," She said as she handed the yogurt to Officer Dy.
He looked at me sharply so I looked away and pretended to be looking for something.
"Hey!" Officer Dy called me, but I ignored him. "Lost pig!" He repeated causing me to look at him irritably. He raised an eyebrow at me as if asking if I had told Officer Yzerman about the yogurt. I pretended to be shocked while pointing at myself and shook my head. But he smirked while saying, "So you're not bringing us closer, huh?"
I just tried to smile, but he seemed disgusted with me. Fortunately, Detective Givenchy spoke up. "Aren't you going to get the yogurt Officer Dy? Officer Yzerman made it for you. It seems to be very special."
Officer Yzerman suddenly blushed, which looked like making Officer Dy more disgusted. He took a deep breath before taking the yogurt from Officer Yzerman and left. Officer Yzerman was left speechless and unable to believe it. Detective Givenchy and I looked at each other and smiled at the same time.
Detective Givenchy tapped Officer Yzerman on the shoulder while saying, "Nice one" and followed Officer Dy away. She looked at me and her eyes lit up. She smiled big. "Thank you, Xela!!--"
I put my index finger in my mouth to remind her to be quiet, which also quickly sinks into her. She couldn't help but smile. She looks really happy.
"Oh!" She said and stopped smiling. "I just noticed, you're wearing pure pink now. Why? What's up?"
I picked up my paper and wrote. [I'm still trying to find out if Officer Dy is really gay.]
"Ahhh," She said while nodding. "How is it?"
[Right now, I'm not sure yet. But I'll know that too. I will continue to investigate and let you know right away.] I wrote on the paper.
She smiled when she read what I wrote. "Okay! I'll count on you. For now, let's eat first. Come on, I'll buy you whatever you want."
