It was easy but I think I made Phoebe mad Ethan sighs,who's Phoebe? Umm no one he blushed,I think I have an idea who this Phoebe is,is she the same girl you bought all those clothes to woo? I ask with a knowing grin. No? He blushed harder,yes she is I punch his arm teasingly. Okay fine,so are you guys friends? Yes but Julie says she using me because I help her with her homeworks. Do you do her homework for her or do you assist her? I teach her since she came in the middle of a session she doesn't understand somethings. Well that means she's not using you,maybe Julie is wrong. Yes I told her that but she insisted I stop talking to Phoebe or we won't be friends anymore. I think Julie is jealous of Phoebe,maybe Julie likes you I shrug. He glares at me,no! Julie is my best friend,calm down all you have to do is ask. No I won't make our friendship weird,now i have to go study he stands up. Okay I leave for Malibu tomorrow I tell him,he does 360 on me,what?! Yes it's a business trip I sigh,why I'm I the last to know? Technically you're not the last to know I'm leaving tomorrow I haven't told mom but I'm sure dad has me covered I grin. Fine I'll miss you he hugs me,oh Ethan it's just a three days trip I hug him back. Okay be safe then he runs to his room,well that was something I groan. I turn on the TV and it feels like it's being ages since I sat in the living room to watch tv. I was so engrossed in the movie I didn't hear mom walk in until she sat beside me. So Malibu huh? She speaks,yeah! I reply without taking my eyes off the tv. Lizzy we need to talk,okay I sigh finally turning to face her,without the background noise she orders. I walk to the tv turning it off,I stare at her waiting. She was dressed in sweatpants and t-shirt like me,what's going on Lizzy? What do you mean? I take a seat on the couch beside hers,you have lost your connection with us. All you do is eat,work and go to bed,you are hardly in our mist unless for food. She has a point but my body needed time to adjust to the new routine. I'm sorry I was busy,your dad also works too you know but he's always available for the family. I nod,she sighs,he called to tell me you leave for Malibu tomorrow,yes. Well be safe and don't go out without someone,mom I've being to Malibu before I scoff. This is a business trip Lizzy be focus and don't even think about exploring instead of working,but mom,no buts. Fine I will focus on work I sigh,better and don't forget to take permission for your birthday and the cabin trip she winks. I roll my eyes but smile,can I turn the TV back on now? Sure I will be in the kitchen. Why? I want to bake some cupcakes and it's not like I have anything to do anyway. Mom I think you should consider going back to work,she sighs,I've being thinking about it but I don't know. You should ask dad to set you up with a successful bank I'm sure he has connections. If I do decide to go back Lizzy,I want it to be by my own effort she pecks my forehead before walking off. Why stress when your husband can provide it for you,I will never understand her. I switched the tv back on, drowning myself in laughter as I watched friends. I must have dozed off because soon,I felt some taps on my shoulders. Lizzy! Wake up! Ethan groans hitting me alittle harder,ouch! I shot up. I blink a few times before settling my cold glare on him,what was that for? Mom said to wake you up it's dinner time,and you couldn't do that gently? I accuse. Where's the fun in that he smirks before leaving me there,I won't be missing that when I leave for sure I grumble. I stand up, stretching to relieve my muscles before making my way to the dinning. Welcome dad I yawn before sitting down,thanks are you set? Yes all my necessities are packed I smile. Please no business talk on the dinning table mom orders dishing out food. Sorry momma I pout,she rolls her eyes but chuckles,dad prays before we began eating. We were having African rice commonly known as jellof rice,like I said mom can prepare every dish. This is so tasty mom Ethan smiles with his mouth full,ewww! E don't do that I crunch my face disgusted. He rolls his eyes but mom also gave him a scolding on table manners,after dinner was over mom gave us dessert. I munched on my cupcakes happily until dad spoke,make sure you get a separate room Elizabeth. Ummm? I question not understanding his words,I don't want you sharing a room with William kwin or any male for that matter he frowns. Oh! His talking about our sleeping procedures in Malibu,well ofcourse we won't be sharing a room. Dad,William is a responsible man and I also am we have boundaries,I know I'm just singing it out to you. Sure I went back to my dessert,when do you leave? I groan under my breath,can't I eat in peace dad? I don't know dad Mr kwin didn't inform me,that's irresponsible of you Lizzy you should be aware of sure things. Sorry I sigh looking at the snack in distaste,I lost my appetite,are you going to eat that? Ethan asks,no you can have it I push the plate across the table before standing up. I should get an early rest, goodnight I peck both my parents cheeks before heading to my room. I lock the door before flopping on my bed,dad is too uptight it's annoying. My cell rings disrupting my thoughts,an unknown number flashed it's digits. I was nervous what if it was drake trying to trick me into talking to him,no his too prideful for such childish antics. Hello,hi Lizzy it's Charles,oh no! This is worst than drake,what do I do? Hey Charles hi I say,I took my luck hoping you weren't grounded anymore. Well God is on your side my dad forgave me I chuckle,good good ummm can we hand out sometime? Say no say no,sure why not? Nice tomorrow maybe? He asks shyly,oh sorry I'm leaving on a business trip I won't be back till Sunday. Okay we can make plans for when you return,okay umm I have to go bye I hanged up. What the fuck did I just do? I gave him hope that something could go on between us shit shit shit. I conference call the girls ASAP,I fucked up I blurt out.
♥️♥️♥️♥️Things are moving kindoff fast in my eyes,what about you? I mean Charles took her number on Tuesday and his calling on Wednesday.
