AFTER HOURS ✔

The dinner was done, the aroma started to enter my nose teasing me .

I really be getting homesick and with the mom's food ,it's just another level.

I could tell it's going to be a yummy feast, as I let out a smile closing my eyes just by the smell.

I discarded the ice cream box in the dustbin once it was complete , helping mom to set the dinner table.

We sat down, once she served the dinner we began to eat.

" Mom not gonna lie, this is the best dinner ever," I said moaning at the taste and she smiled

I love many cuisines and my mom learnt to cook them. Honestly speaking she mastered every one of it.

Come on she's one of the most famous chefs in the world

Nothing could ever beat the taste of my mother's cooking.

I said what I said.

They say that the food tastes better when it's cooked with love.

I mean it's true though.

I let out a burp, I had a happy meal after a long time I guess.

"So you should hangout often Loren it feels like forever from the last time I saw you", mom says to which I agree truly nodding at what she said.

"Yes mom "I say.

"It's just the college stuffs that were keeping me busy" , I say tired

"I understand that but I miss you", she says at me.

"Awww I miss you too mom" I tell her truthfully.

She showed me the recipe book that she had been recently working on.

I am so happy for her.

I hugged mom before I left my home , making sure I held her for a long time until I was contented .

The drive to my condo was long but having The Weeknd, blasting through the speakers makes the drive short.

I heard some music blasting as I was nearing my place.

I realised that there was a party which my neighbour mentioned earlier today. So he was not really joking I guess.

I park my car in the garage and walk my way instead of using the elevator.

Curiosity killed the cat.

I see the pool on the ground floor filled with teenagers with red cups in their hands.

I saw people doing a sloppy dance to whatever song was being played. Few people shooting their first shot.

The coloured lights were filled everywhere giving a great ambience making the place look elegant by uplifting the colourful theme.

As I climbed up the stairs, I saw people clicking pictures in random places.

As I was about to take a turn, I was interrupted by my hot neighbour

" I see you sneaking out, what's the fun ?" he said from behind me, my hairs on the body rising as an impact.

I turned around to find him with almost no space between me and him.

You know what it's been so long since I ever had fun.

And you only live once?

I smirked at him. By the reaction he gave I knew he was surprised and so was I .

His hairs were perfectly sleeked back and tied into a lower bun, his thick eyebrows were highlighted under the coloured lights, his eyes oh my god don't even get me started.

His lips were in a darker shade of red.

I licked my bottom lip as I watched him smirk.

I take my steps towards him, as he raised his eyebrows anticipating my next move.

My hands reached the red cup which was just beside his right arm on the table behind which was filled with a drink by one of the people who were there.

I knew what I did there.

I leaned in grabbing the cup and chugging it one go.

Once done I open my eyes I open my mouth as a reflex of drinking the whole drink in one go

" Wild " he complimented the obvious.

I felt a familiar burn down my throat.

I gave one of the cups to him , and he knew exactly what to do.

" Cheers," I said raising my second cup to him .

" Cheers," he said clicking to my cup.
