FRAGRANCE IN THE AIR

CHAPTER 8 - HANDSOME BOY

KEITH : Andreya....can you help me to buy some things for my sister?

MYSELF : What? Are you serious?

I never thought that he would ask me to go with him to buy gifts for his sister and how could I say no to him.

MYSELF : I thought you were the only child born in your family.

KEITH : Yes I was, till she was born(haha). She went to Canada when she was 5 year old and she is coming back now. I wanted to give her a gift but I couldn't think of a single thing.

MYSELF : OK, let us meet today at 7 near xxxxxxx place. Do you understand? I will ask you my doubts after we finish our shopping.

I WAS REALLY EXCITED TO GO OUT WITH HIM. IT FELT LIKE A LITTLE DATE.

SO I STARTED TO GET DRESSED.

We planned to meet in the xxxxxxx shop. Like always I was late, he was waiting for me .I ran as fast as I could .ufffff

KEITH : Again again again, you are late...Andreya my legs are numb waiting for you.

ANDREYA : hehehe SORRY. Let's go. Wait, before we go, tell me her age.

KEITH : She is 18 right now .

We went into a shop to get some items for his sister. After a long search we bought a ring and necklace (limited edition).

HE IS REALLY RICH.

Suddenly a boy approached, he looked so good. He was tall, had sharp jaws, and big eyes. Just then I realized that I was staring at him, and when I was about to turn towards the other side, I saw him coming towards me.

????: Hey, you are Andreya right!

MYSELF: Yes!

THEODORE: I am Theodore. I was the boy next to your house. How is uncle and aunty?

MYSELF: Oh my God, is it really you? I wanted to contact you .So I searched for your number but I could not find you..

He suddenly hugged me because he was excited to see me after so many years. We were bestfriends, we used to play for hours during those days.

At the same time, Keith's expressions changed. He was annoyed.

MYSELF : Everyone is fine here. How is aunty and uncle?

THEODORE: Everyone is fine. Is this your boyfriend?

MYSELF: No he is just my friend. Keith this is THEODORE. Theo this is Keith. I'm helping him to get gifts for his sister who is coming from CANADA.

THEODORE: OH. By the way it was nice meeting you Keith.

THEO: Andreya I'm really sorry. I have to leave soon. So can I have your number? Let's have lunch together. I will message you when and where.

MYSELF: YEAH .You can have my number.

I gave my number and he left because of his busy schedule.

After our shopping we came out of the shop and sat on a bench. KEITH bought me an ice cream.

ANDREYA : So now, it is my turn.

KEITH : YES it's your turn. Now you may ask me your questions.

ANDREYA : So you were the one who helped Evan get together with us, right?

KEITH : No, you're wrong .You had a wrong guess.

ANDREYA : Why did you stop bullying me ?

KEITH : It was no fun Bullying you. Come let's go for a walk.

He dragged me to a walk. When I was walking with him I totally forgot the purpose I came for. I just wanted to walk with him like that forever!

MYSELF : Do you have a girlfriend?

KEITH : Yes, I had one. She was a beautiful little girl .

MYSELF : What a little girl?

KEITH : I loved her when we were just 10 years old. But the truth is I love her still and I'm waiting for her.

MYSELF : Do you mind if you tell me her name?

KEITH : Her name is GRETA.

I was Pissed. So damn pissed.

MYSELF : Okay Keith I'm leaving now. If you love this place just enjoy it.

KEITH : Wait, I wanted to give you this on your last birthday, but I couldn't.

He gave me a beautiful pendant. I didn't want to accept it.

But suddenly He asked me to be his ..........
