Chapter 7
It was the next morning and Naiomi was not excited she wasn't sure if she would ask Simon. She thought for a while...
"I mean we are leaving tomorrow afternoon, so I guess I wouldn't have to see him"
"Or should I ask for his number and I'll ask him through a text or call"
"I think I should go for the number"
"But it wouldn't be special, I need to ask him in a proper manner, gosh I think, I am going with the number"
Jada woke up and saw Naiomi sitting on her bed already dressed and ready to head out.
"Ready so early?", Jada asked
"I couldn't sleep properly after I peed at 3 am", Naiomi said while smiling sadly
"Oh okay", Jada said smiling and nodding while still trying to wake herself up," so, you don't seem that excited for 2 pm I am guessing?", Jada asked while preparing her breakfast.
"Well, it's not really like that", Naiomi said while realizing she was wrong "I guess it is like that, I am just scared"
"So you got a plan?", Jada asked with food in her mouth "I need to know, I might ruin your plan"
"Well I don't think I could ask him, I'll ask him through a text or call... most likely a text", Naiomi said
"Is that really all you got Naiomi Miller?", Jada said with astonishment "you can't just ask a big big question through a text, this question can lead you to many places---to a lover, to a friend (which won't happen), or to a bed"
"Jada!", Naiomi gasping
"Just saying!", Jada said "My point is, anything special can happen when you ask that simple question, don't ask through a text, like what's gonna happen when you say it through a text...nothing or maybe just "HAHAHAHA" or "LMAOF" or even worst "okay". That's just to bad"
"Okay I see it I get your point", Naiomi said
Jada finished her breakfast and got ready. The girls ordered a simple lunch and ate it in their room, after they got ready they rest for a while till 1:45 pm then waited outside for Simon.
Once they arrived at Simon's house, they started cooking, and Jada brought out her inner Ramsey soul.
"NAIOMI MILLER", Jada shouted while Simon jumped and almost fell on the floor, but Naiomi stopped that from happening---both Naiomi's eyes closed with both hands open flat holding Simon's chest.
"YES MA'AM", Naiomi shouted back while pushing back Simon so he can stand again.
"Still bumping are we buddy?", Simon said while rubbing his hair
"SIMON COOPER!", Jada shouted
"YE- YES SIR- MA'AM", Simon said while Jada giving a lion stare to him, but all three of them laughed
"EVERYONE STOP THIS NONSENSE!", Jada said while she suddenly changed her laugh to a serious soldier, "NAIOMI MILLER, MANAGE THE MASH POTATOES!, SIMON MANAGE THE GRAVY, I TAKE OVER THE TURKEY AND VEGGIES!....UNDERSTOOD!", Jada shouted
"YES MA'AM", both Simon and Naiomi said and slowly laughing at Jada's back
They were a great team in cooking. Naiomi finished making her mash potatoes because she was already familiarized with the recipe---Jada would teach Naiomi how to cook some days in their dorm. Jada is done with everything, just waiting for the turkey to cook, while for Simon it was his first time cooking, so it took him a couple of tries until on the 3rd time, Naiom got frustrated just watching him do all the mistakes, so she brought out her bossy side and tried to help Simon because Jada was busy watching the turkey to avoid it getting burnt.
"Simon Simon!", Naiomi said while walking slowly like a teacher going up to you once you did something very naughty.
"Please don't put a lot of flour we are all gonna die", Naiomi said as nice as possible
"Okay okay, my bad", while Simon's inner bossy came out and got equally irritated at her for correcting him.
"Guys I need to go to the toilet and do number 1 for a while, or maybe even number 2", Jada said deliberately so Simon and Naiomi can have their moment.
"Okay sure", Simon and Naiomi said
Naiomi watches the turkey so it won't burn, but got distracted by Simon on how he stirs the gravy, she tried to keep her mouth shut, but couldn't help it.
"Sy, don't stir it like that you're going to leave lumps of flour!", Naiomi said while pushing off Simons's hand taking the spoon to stir, but before she could stir, Simon took her wrist away from the saucer making Naiomi flinch a little, and Simon puts his other hand on her shoulder massaging it slowly and gently, and before he could say what he had on mind, he just stared at her eyes for a while until they both started smiling at each other.
"I can manage Ny", he said while taking the spoon from her
"Just please slowly and gently this time Sy", Naiomi said smiling
