Care (2)

Suddenly, in the middle of her walking she felt that someone was following her. Nervous gradually sprout on her chest, so Hailey made her walk faster. She wrapped in fear due to isolation, if ever something bad would happen, no one will save and free her from this stranger. Maybe walking was not enough, that moment she decided to run.

Finally, Hailey reached the front door of their house. She looked really exhausted, with faintly pain on her soles. "That distance are no joke. Next time, I will wear flats rather than heels." she hissed. After removing her shoes, she changed these into her pink comfty bunny slippers.

"Aunt Polly, I'm here!"

She called their house helper but there's no response.

"Where is she? Wait, where's Kensui? Why do I care about him? He even left me. " She dropped her bag at the sofa and went directly to their kitchen just to get some water to drink. After a big gulp, it wasn't enough to clench her thirst, as she about to take it again, someone slightly pushed her at the back.

She was covered by it's manly scent. Hailey was about to react, when this person grabbed the glass that she was holding and drank the remaining water on it.

Her breath almost shortened and her senses went up as she awared of his breath, panting like he came from a marathon. Her heart trembled with his every breath.

D-did we just kiss? I mean----- indirect kiss. He drank on the glass which I used. We pressed our lips against it.

Ahhhhhhhh! Her mind shouted as her cheeks turning into red.

"Oh Hailey, Kensui you're here!"

Quickly, they both automatically get separated.

"I just came from market, I bought some groceries for the whole week. By the way, what do you want for dinner?" As Aunt Polly asked them, not minding the tension arouse between the two.

"Ask her [Hailey], I have something to do." Kensui went upstairs.

"Kensui, change your clothes immediately."

"I will." He added before he entered his room.

"Where had he been? His polo is filled with sweat." with concern tone.

"I don't know, maybe he played basketball?"

"With a uniform?" As this elder sounded with disbelief.

"Do you want me to help you in preparing our food" Hailey deviated the topic.

"Are you sure?"

"Yes, Auntie!"

"Tell me what happened." Aunt Polly seemed interested.

"Why Auntie?"

"You look so happy."

"H-huh?"

"Is there something happened you wanna tell?

"Ahm, let us finish these, I am so hungry already!"

8:00 PM; Hailey already able to finish her assignments, she decided to write an email to her Mom.

Dear Mom,

How are you? Don't forget to skip your meal. Always take care of your health. I miss you. Don't worry about me, Aunt Polly taking care of us. She always cooks good food. By the way, my relationship with Kensui is getting better. We went to school together----

But he left me a while ago, yet I didn't include that, Mom will get worried.

Sometimes, he is helping me with my assignments if he is in good mood. You don't need to send me chocolates, I have lots in my room.

Lots? Hehe! Thanks to my fake brother's admirers. Of course, I didn't put that.

As she continue typing, "Is there anything I could add?" Suddenly, her phone started to ring. Who will gonna call me at this late hour?

[Hello Hailey, did you open our GC? ] Oh it's Sky and she seemed very excited.

"Not actually"

"Gosh, Hailey open it now! You can also see it in newsfeed."

"What is it? You can tell me directly."

"Okay, I will end this call.Make sure you will see it huh."

"Yeah, I will" She answered her friend lazily.

Do I need to see it? I'm not interested---

My hands were trembling. This curiosity was killing me right now. I tried to back read their convos. And there I saw, a video. What if it's not? They mistaken Kensui for someone. Maybe, I am wrong. Why did he run and chase a bus? Is he crazy? Even it is important, he should not------

Hailey was about to hit the play button but she stopped for a while, as her eyes went bigger because she realized something.

"Does he care for me?"
