"Why should we live together? I don't think there's a need for that," I said.
"It will bring a more effective need for this. We'll feel comfortable as time passes. I promise you," Adam said.
"Let me think about it," I said.
"No need of extr...
Yesterday was amazing! I had a lot of fun with Anna. As always. She's the best friend and companion you could have. I just wish our dads were on good terms. I was sick of her voicemail-
Hey! This is Anna Hall. I'm currently busy making the world a better place. I don't even know why I said that. Anyway, you can leave a message and I'll call you back when I'm free.
Anyway, that was fine. But today night my phone rang at midnight. It was Anna.
"Hey, Anna. What's wrong? What happened??" I asked worriedly as I picked up the call.
"Hey. Just come to my house right now," she said.
"What? Why?" I asked confusedly.
"Stop asking why. Just come," she said and cut the call.
I didn't know what was wrong with her. I immediately took my keys and drove to her house without even thinking about my clothes. Two bodyguards followed me in the other car.
I reached her house in 15 mins, got out of the car, and rang the bell.
"Hey. What's wrong? Are you ok?" I said right when I saw her.
"Hey. Come in first. she said.
"What happened? Why did you call me at this hour?" I said a bit loudly as she closed the door.
"Oh, come on. Sit down first." she tried to calm me.
"No! You tell me what's going on." I pinned her to the wall and said.
"Addy, let me go," she said as she looked into my eyes. She was looking like a small child with a pleading face. I felt bad for what I did at that moment and let her go.
"I'm sorry. I'm just worried." I apologized and sat on the sofa.
"I'm sorry. I shouldn't have called you at this time." she apologized and sat next to me.
"Now, will you tell me why you called me?" I asked.
"For ice cream. Remember how we used to eat ice cream at midnight together when we were young and our dads caught us one day. I saw that photo. It was a memory on google photos." she said making me get shocked. SHE CALLED ME FOR ICE CREAM IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT??
"Ice cream? Anna you... Ok fine. Let's eat then." I said as I felt bad if I tried to deny her.
"Really?" she asked.
"Sure. And you're acting like a baby. Are you drunk by any chance" I said as she got up and went to the kitchen
"Haha." she laughed sarcastically. Suddenly the lights went off.
"Hey, why did you turn the lights off? An? Anna??" I called but no answer until...
🎵"Happy birthday to you... Happy birthday to you... Happy birthday dear Addy... Happy birthday to you!"🎵
"Seriously? " I asked as she came towards me with a cake for me. It's my birthday and I didn't even remember.
"Yeah. Now blow the candles! Oh, make a wish first." she said as she held the cake.
I sighed but then just thought that that was so sweet of her to give this surprise. So, I made a wish and blew the candles. I wished Anna and I will end up together. Even if anyone objects to it. Although, I still feel like a baby. I cut the cake and then she went to get us both a slice each.
"Here you go. So, what wish did you make?" she asked as she stuffed a rather large piece of cake in her mouth.
"Something. I'm not gonna tell you. It's a bad omen to tell your best friend what wish you made." I stated.
"Says who?" she pouted.
"Says me. Here, let me wipe your mouth." I took a tissue from the coffee table and wiped her mouth.
"Thank you". she thanked me.
After I wiped her mouth, we stared at each other for a couple of minutes. She was looking so beautiful even in the dimmed lights. Her brown eyes were mesmerizing. We were so near. Our breaths could be felt by each other. We moved nearer and neared. BUT, a notification tone from my phone interrupted us.
"Darn it!" I muttered making her laugh silently.
"Anyway, I should get going. I have a long day tomorrow." I said and got up.
"Me too. Good night. Have sweet dreams." she said as she hugged me.
"I will after this," I said making me look at me with wide eyes.
"Oh?" she said to herself.
"I mean the cake and the surprise." I clarified.
"Yeah, I got it," she said.
"Bye," I said as I was going out.
"Bye birthday boy," she said and waved.
I left her house thinking about how our relationship is. I do like her and I think she does too. I have to find a way to break up with Claire. It's gonna be hard but it will be worth it.
I reached home but saw someone sitting on the bench in the garden. When I switched on the garden lights, it was the last person I wanted to see right now.
