Chapter 7

"Stop it, give it" Brenda shouted leaping and jumping at the same time towards Mile's hands high in the air. He had found her raptured and glued to her phone when he came back and had playfully collected it, trying to read what she seemed to have been texting to someone. Emma sat at the counter starring at them both, she was deeply engrossed in a book till Miles came in causing the obvious drama.

"Miles ....." Emma called giving him a look that read to give back Brenda's phone, but not Miles, not when he was in a mood to play like this, he wouldn't stop half way of what his mind was made up to do. "Miles give it!" Brenda cried, he quickly glanced through the phone, Brenda on seeing that cried out leaving the room, and leaving the phone for Miles."Hey girl come take the phone"Miles said facing the phone in her direction and smiling. That was Miles, he'd sure never listen to anyone until he had done what he pleased, at times he could make one sad or happy just for his own pleasure, Emma thought, she looked at him and he glanced back at her mischievously and walked away.

Brenda came in and took her phone giving out a loud sigh, "Miles is such a jerk" she said aloud, Brenda was her one friend that hadn't fallen head heels for Miles yet. She was always serious with Miles whenever she was with him, never did him favours and was never nice or cool around him. Emma certainly liked that and as well thought that served Miles right as he had always thought he was price charming and had always lived on the fact that girls always fell head heels for him. Miles came in and Brenda threw him a throw pillow which was on the cushion, Miles dodged it and laughed. "Ridiculous" he said, " how was work?" Emma asked as she brought out a pan to fry what she was making,"I didn't go..." Miles said without a care,"so where went you then?" Emma asked, "no where" he smiled throwing some bits of what she was preparing into his mouth, "I want to see some friends" he said, "Emma I think I'd be going now" Brenda said, Emma looked up,"leaving me you two" ,"well I'll come by tomorrow" Brenda was saying as Miles led her out. " What in the world would I ever do with these two" Emma said aloud. Not quite an hour since they left had Mrs Pete come in. "I think we should start closing all the doors in the house as cats are littering the streets these days...." Mrs Pete was saying. Emma not sure of what to say just smiled. Mum was concerned about the smallest things unlike dad, who never seemed to care. Miles was just like mum she thought, Miles would worry about the smallest things like not wearing the same color of the that matched his stockings and shirt and would always worry less about skipping work on regular occasions.
