My door was slowly swung open by no one but Adonis whose torso was in my room and his lower body was out while his eyes scanned my room before landing on me and fully coming in. One thing I should forever be grateful for is him respecting my privacy, normally he doesn't knock when he's about to enter my room and I always scold him every single time he does that and him knocking on my door happens -1 times out of 5.
"Hey Vi." His lips parted into a broad grin while his hands remained on the door knob as he addressed me.
"I'm not playing any game with you if that's why you're here." I gave off my anger through my acidic tone. I'm just tired of everything, I just finished dealing with my threats and I still don't know how to go about it and I don't want Adonis adding more to my problems now.
He wrinkled his nose and pressed his lips in a line before replying, "I don't get, should I cry or what?" His voice deepen in annoyance before he kept on going, "my PS isn't even with me."
"I didn't ask." I retorted back before falling back to my bed, I should try to calm down. I can't start pouring my anger out on my little brother.
"Cool down sis, ohh guess who's here." His eyes twinkle with bliss as he prolongs his last word and shakes his head slowly with that mischievous grin still glued to his face. I sat upright on my bed, watching as the door widens and Phil appears out of nowhere… oh shit and Don finally shutting the door behind them and crosses his arms over his chest as he watches my reaction.
"Phil? Heyy didn't know you were gonna be here this early."
"Early?" Don snorted before chuckling, "do you even know what the time says?"
My eyes left Don's again and landed back on Phil who I caught staring right back at me before a small smile pulled on his face. Dammit his smile again, Oh God no, my breath… I tried to slow down my heart rate and took a long, very deep breath to bring back to my normal phase because of that smile.
"So what, are we still having dinner or you two should quit your staring contest because I can't take this no more.'"
My eyes widened at Phil, ''you made dinner?"
"We did." Don blinked at me, biting his lips in anger as he continuously pointed at the two of them, "can you please stop leaving me out of things and I'm out now you two can carry on with your something something and just come right down when I finish our dinner."
He shuts the door aggressively that the sound echoed throughout every corner if my room before rushing downstairs."Are you okay?" Phil shook his head. Those were the first words he had said to me since he came.
"Um yeah, I am what's up?"
He shakes his head and I'm sure something was on his mindMy lips slammed shut when I felt his bigger palms clasping mine and securing it with his, I slowly shut my eyes… okay calm down, he's just holding me and they're nothing more.. it's just a hold.
"You wanna go now?" He zoned me back in while I look up to see him staring right into my eyes that I'm afraid I won't want him cut the contact
As we went down the stairs, the smell of something pleasant disarrayed every area of my nostrils. I found myself moaning to the aroma before I zoned in when Phil chuckled as he pushed the kitchen door open bringing exposure to Adonis who appeared to be pouring.. wait is that..
"Yep, it sure is jollof rice don't worry I didn't add to much spice to it."
"Like you did anything that important." Phil cut him off.
"Oh please, I helped him run the errand and that's also something important." He winked before getting back to what he was doing and serving the dish and pulling out a seat for me and sitting beside me while Phil sat across from us.
"I can't believe you guys actually made my favorite food like-"
"Then you should wake up from whatever dream you are in."
"I know It really took a lot of time, thanks so much." I ignored Don's comment as usual.
"You're welcome oh and Phil also came with your protein shakes.." he rose and stalked to the fridge to get it and placed it in front of me while I gaped at Phil in awe. Damn this has to be one of the best moments in my life.
He threw me a thumbs up.
"Phil, this is too much we aren't even celebrating any-"
"I'll have it then." Adonis was almost too quick to snatch it but I caught my drink and clutched it in my palm and brought it to my other side where he won't reach. Don. Was too greedy and I'm certain Phil also got him his
Phil just sat there laughing at us without intervening.
"You, you guys… should stop." He said in between his laughter.
"I wasn't the one who said 'it was too much'" Don sassed, rising up from his seat to get the door as soon as the bell rang with an annoyed look plastered on his face.
"Phil, to be sincere, I really appreciate both of you's hard work in making my fav food. I didn't see this coming and this would have taken a lot of your time, thank you so much and.. lastly sorry for any trouble Don't must have put you through." I voiced out.
"It doesn't really matter." he nodded at me before I felt my heart swelling again.
"Not me watching you guys talking about me like I'm not here "
"Children, I'm home!" We both heard Adonis scream before I followed Phil out of the kitchen. Mom stood in front of the door, her dress was dripping with water, as she took her shoes.
"Hey kids." She sent us a little wave before we replied back to her.
"I'll go get a towel. " Adonis hurried upstairs.
"Mrs Dexter.. " Phil said with a nod if his head while my mom smiled at him.
"Phil, I'm glad you're here… so how's it going?"
"Normal I guess." He shrug
"It's raining heavily out there, I don't want to get soaked and you can pass the night here.. I don't mind."
"We don't mind actually…" I looked up at Phil to see his reaction. He furrowed his eyebrows as he took in what we're telling him.
''nah, I don't think the rain is gonna disturb me from getting to the hostel."
"It's heavy, you can sleep with Don and again dad isn't here so-"
"Who said I'm not here.." dad came from outside also soaking wet before mom hooked the door and locked it with the key.
"Heyyy dad." I palmed Phil's hand when I noticed his action. I don't want dad to pull any stunt tonight, especially after what Phil had done to make me happy today. Come to think of it, I was totally moody this evening after reading the letter and these two precious guys in my life helped lift me.
"Hey but I'm not entertaining any guests tonight." He announced as he walked past us. I felt my palms turn into fists as I watched his retreating figure leave the room just like that.
"I'll see you tomorrow at school Vi, byeiss Dexter." Phil gave me one last hug before striding to the door.
"Oh Phil didn't you hear the storm? You have the spend the night here, we don't mind." She sighed not really wanting Phil to leave. Neither do I
Don came and handed her the towel before standing with us.
"Adonis Phil's staying overnight, in your room.i'll go tell your dad that." Mom declared giving Phil a pat on the shoulder before leaving the three of us behind before a loud thunder released from the sky.
"So me and Phil, yeah!" Donny punched the air before throwing himself at Phil.
"Donny… games or movie night?" He winked at him before Dons face turned into a frown and looked at me
"Um sis can you please help to plead with dad to give me back my play station?"
I scrunch my nose, "hell nah.. there's no way that's gonna happen, you guys can do something this night."
"Online game with our phones is it then." Phil said, "oh and u can join Vi."
"I don't mind actually." Since I'm free tonight, I'm going to complete my assignments later. Before anything, spending time with my loved one comes first.
