The Silver Veil

Chapter 10

****

Harry and Zayn both were looking for a table or Harry looking for a table while Zayn place their orders in the "Aroma mocha" cafe, one of the most famous cafes in the city. It was famous not only cause they serve the best coffee but the interior was beautiful too.

If you look around the interior, you can see the location of the counter in the back of the place with all the tables placed in the fronts while a few long booths were locked in the corner as in next to walls. Most of the seats were occupied but a few were still empty as they look in the very back near the counter. 

The whole cafe had a theme of beautiful pastel pink and green color. Both the colors blend so well with each other that anyone could fall in love with it.

As Zayn and Harry, both got settled on the table with their order right in front of them. Both order latte and cheese bagels with some cupcakes. Lots of sugar they know but sometimes it's fun and anyway they are in a bitter mood too, so better taste something sweet.

Both sets in awkward silence, Zayn averted his gaze to everywhere while Harry glared at him. None of them made the first move, so to compress the silence on their table. Zayn stretched his hand out to take a cheese bagel but Harry spat his hand out. Zayn frowned at Harry who was still glaring at him.

Zayn sits straight as if he was in a serious meeting but whenever he is with Harry he just can't keep up with his personality of the numb person who can't feel anything anymore, like he is someone else whenever they are together. He doesn't even know how much he miss the younger lad until he saw him and yet here he sit right in front of Zayn glaring at him while looking like a kitten, without even knowing how much Zayn misses him in past 2 days. 

Zayn doesn't even know what he did. Why was Harry so mad at him? What did he do? They haven't even met in 2 days? So why was he mad? Was it something he said before leaving? Or did someone tell him something?

Anyways, he looks so cute while glaring! Just a cute monkey and that pout of his. Awwww, will it be sweeter than cupcakes? If I touch my lips with him how will it feel? Wait what am I thinking, no no no, I can't I need to focus. I have to find my love, they might be waiting for me but Harry. Why do I feel this way, when I am near or away from him?

They both hold each other gaze, while Harry glare and Zayn just admire his eyes or his lips or battle with himself how he isn't supposed to have a feeling for the younger lad. "If we are just gonna stare at each other then can we please stare while eating?" Zayn said and Harry huffed, still folding his hands on his chest.

"You are an asshole!" Harry said with such a serious face and Zayn chuckled.

"And? Yet you are sitting here with me!"

"Shut up, it's me who is going to speak here, not you. You'll only speak when needed and I need answers. So, you better speak!" Harry finally said, looking at Zayn, who was already chewing on a cheese bagel. Zayn studied Harry for a few minutes and then his face softens, he did the quick math in his mind and finally pass a smile.

"Stop smiling just tell me. Will you answer me?"

"Alright, what is it monkey?" Zayn was enjoying Harry's behavior may be, cause it was the first time someone was, being demanding with him and asking for answers.

"Where were you for two days?" Harry said while narrowing his eyes. A couple of girls were sitting right next to their table while continuously laughing and eyeing Zayn and Harry.

"Is that what he was mad about?"

Zayn was just about to answer when Harry snapped. "What the fuck are you looking at huh? Haven't seen humans before?" Maybe the girl was laughing too loudly for Harry's liking. They all scoped but one of the girls that were sitting too quietly at their table instantly stand up, asking for their manager.
