Love Triangle

Chapter 6 - Hanging Out

It has been a week since the tower incident and I still cannot seem to forget that memorable day, his words and voice lingered in my ears and it gave me butterflies. I wonder how it would be to love him, what were the odds? he loved me anyway without even knowing me. I should give this relationship a shot, you never know maybe 10 years from now we will be having a family or maybe we will be on our seperate ways. I am very much afraid of the second option.

I sighed to myself and looked at the time it was 8:00 in the morning on a Saturday and I am still in bed thinking about this thing. How can one be so jobless in life? I got out of my bed and did my morning routines. I was standing in front of the mirror and drying my hair when I heard my phone buzz. I went to see the caller ID and his name alone made me smile so broad. I picked up and spoke "Hello?" from the other end I heard him clearing his throat "Hey Ly, I was wondering if you wanted to hang out or something today if you are not busy or have no othe-" I cut him off of his cute fast talking when he is nervous "I'm in" and I smile to myself knowing he wont see it.

"Great what time do you want me to come pick you up?" he asked, I look at the time and its just 10:15 am, probably nothing will be open so soon, I replied saying "Is 12:00 okay with you? cause you know nothing will be open at this time in the morning" I heard him saying something like "OH DARN" I guess and then he spoke "Yeah 12:00 will be fine I will come pick you up then". We said our goodbyes and cut the call.

It has been half an hour and I am still standing here and thinking about the clothes that I should wear on this so called "HANG OUT". I heard a knock on the door, I yelled a "come in" to whoever was at the door. It was mom. well my step mom. Samantha

She is nothing like those step parent who is mean and bitchy She loves me just like her own daughter but the only differnce is she can never switch my Mum's place no matter how amazing she is.

My mum died when I was 5, at that age I didnt know what cancer was but as I grew older dad told me about it otherwise for all these years I had believed that she died because she was pregnant and I cursed that unborn child. Yes my mom was 4 months pregnant when she died with my baby brother/sister. I tried my best to block all of those thoughts out but something just reminded me of her.

She has always been there with me, even my own father does not stick around me as much as she does. Dad, well he probably does not even know I had a past relationship. Dad has always been a workaholic. He never really cared what really went on in the house, as long as all are safe. Besides the safety, nothing mattered to him.

I turn and smile at her "Hey, Samantha!" I greet her happily. "Hey Sunshine you seem to be all cheery this morning and look at you standing in front of the closet and all the clothes scattered hmm I am guessing its a boy" she ends with a smirk, she knew me too much for my liking, she knew every inch of me that includes my past relationship too and my school life as well. I was waiting to tell her about Liam and the tower scene but as she works too she had a busy schedule so I let it go.

"Well you guessed it right there" I smile at her shyly. She comes closer and hugs me like a child hugs a soft toy won at the aiming game. "Samantha I cant breathe, let go of me" she lets go of me and apologizes "Oh, I am sorry sweetheart I didnt realize cause I am so happy right now, happy for you that you are finally moving on from the past and starting a new life" She cups my face and kisses my forehead "I love you, Baby girl"

I smiled at her "I love you too, Samanth". There was a silence for few seconds until I spoke "Wanna help me choose to what to wear, I actually cannot figure out what to wear" I sigh and jump on the bed.

"I was waiting for that to come, I in fact have the perfect outfit for you,wait here I will be back in a minute" I nod my head obediently as she leaves the room. I wonder what is on her mind. Well she does not have a bad taste in clothes but I am just concerned with how much body will be visible in that.
