Chapter 25 ŸØŲ.

Dawn

"Earl, tour me around your house" Dawn said jogging up the stairs following me

"Huh? Why?" I turn around to face him

So this is how he looks when I'm taller than him, the reflection of the light making his hazel brown eyes sparkle

"Your house is so huge, give me a tour" he said excitedly

How can I say no to that?

"hmmkay" I was supposed to go to my room to change my clothes "Let's start here since we're at the second floor already"

Mostly on this floor are bedrooms, my bedroom at the furthest corner, my parents room at the opposite and the 5 guestrooms, all rooms consisting a balcony, tha rooftop with jacuzzi and billiard pool

"OMG let's play billiard some other time" he chimed

"ohh yeah sure"

Half of the first floor is the library of course it's full of different type of books, it is also a place where I feel more relaxed. Living room, kitchen and the dining room looks out to the patio, a swimming pool on the backyard and the garage can cater 3 cars

"wow, your house is awesome" he said enthusiastically

"not really" this house is not awesome, I've been living in here by myself for a long time so, nothing in this house is amazing for me at all

"Earl the food is ready, just go to the dining room" Mary announced

"come on" I urge Dawn to hurry and follow me

I realised how unfamiliar it is for me to eat with someone in the dining area

Dinner is going well but for me it was slightly awkward as I threw little glances at Dawn through my eyelashes

"So these are your preferred type of dishes"

He looks at me with a smile then our eyes clashed which caught me off guard

"did you ask Mary to cook my favorite food?" I said after I recover from the shock of being caught that I was secretly looking at him

He just replied with his toothy grin and continue to eat in silence

How am I supposed to segue conversations in this muted dinner
