•THIRD PERSON POV•

Salome stagger backwards. Her thoughts are jumbled up to the fact that Sean is standing in front of her, her home, staring causally like someone she talks to all the time.

"W-what are y-you doing here?" She stutter, trying to maintain her stance.

Sean, with an unfazed expression on his face, jerks his thumb sideways. "My sister lives next-door."

Her mouth form a big 'o' instantly. How can she forget that he's also Maria's sister. The same Sean that attempted suicide.

"Yeah, she currently isn't around and asked me to stay here till she returns." He completes, his voice neutral and composed.

Salome swallows, slowly pulling the door wider for him to enter. She press her lips, watching the tall guy walk in with a small bag in his hand.

"Thanks." Sean tells her and settle on the couch by the end side. He shuffles through his bag and Salome's body stiffs. What if he brings out something harmful and murder her before her dad gets back?

Her thoughts fade away when he brings out a book and flip through the pages. Sean look up and see that she's still standing.

He tilts his head. "What's wrong?"

Salome blinks fast to push back the absurd thoughts flaming her mind. She shake her head, forcing out a smile.

"Wrong? Nah..."

"Okay... But then why are you staring at me like that?"

Salome turn the bottom door click locked, pretending like she didn't hear him. When she turn around, she see that Sean is still looking at her, expecting an answer.

The scared girl raise her shoulder in a shrug, laughing playfully. "What you do mean? Staring at you?" she puffs out air, shaking her head. "Oh please!"

Sean nods, tearing his eyes back to the book he's looking at. Salome shuffle her feet, not knowing if she should go back to her room or stay with her strange visitor. She is very much aware that her dad would fuss about it when he arrives and see that someone is seated in the sitting room and she's cuddled up in her room.

Again, she glance down at her skimpy outfit and exhale sharply.

"Uh...Sean?" His names feels weird slipping from her lips but the quiet guy look up at her without minding how uncomfortable she is.

"I'll be back... I need to..." She trails her hands down her body, verifying that she needs to change. Sean nod again. She don't need to complete her words before he grab what she's trying to say.

"Great, thanks." Salome turn around and race up the stairs. She miss a step and almost trip in the middle and that didn't miss Sean's sight. His eyes widen and he got up instantly but Salome is already up on her feet again and race faster to her room and shut the door behind. She don't think she'd be able to go down after embarrassing herself like that.

Her body raise and fall in deep breath. Her back is pressed on her door, one hand on her chest to calm her rapid breathing. Apart from the fact that she ran up the stairs like a child, she just had to miss a step and stumble forward. She slap her palms on her face, leaving the door to her already opened wardrobe.

Sean's here and she's not comfortable in her most comfortable outfit for now.

Several shattering of clothes and Salome is dressed in pink joggers and sky blue round neck. She take one last look at herself in the mirror, turn to the side instinctively and a deep frown grease her small face. Her ass is popping out. In joggers. Unconsciously, she drags down her top till it cover her entire rear and look at the mirror again, not fully happy but feeling a tad satisfied.
