Bitter sweet affair

Chapter 15 - seeking help

Andre's POV
I reached for my phone on the bedside table and checked the time. It was 8 in the morning.
I remembered falling asleep in the 50th chapter of the novel.

She was sleeping on my shoulder, her neck might get stiff. I laid her down on the bed and covered her with the sheets.
I got outta bed without waking Reyna up.
I freshened up and decided to make breakfast.
I was about to call her downstairs for breakfast, but I saw her coming down the stairs.

"Good morning," she said.
" Morning. Did you sleep well?" I asked.
"Yeah; When I was done with the novel. Did you find it boring?" She asked
"The novel? Well, no. It's not my thing to read novels into the night" I said
"Sorry. Because of me, you had to keep reading"
"Don't apologize. I wanted to try it out myself. Breakfast is getting cold. Sit"

After we were done eating, I insisted on doing the dishes and told her to rest.
'what do we do today' was all I could think of.
Oh! Right. I brought out my phone and dialed her number.

"Good morning," I said as soon as she answered.
"Morning. How are you and my little sister doing?" She asked.
"We're both fine"
"Okay. Do you have something to say?" She said going straight to the point.

" Yeah, I was wondering if you could tell me what Reyna likes doing during her free time"

"Mm, my sister is rather simple. When she's indoors, she prefers to read novels, cook and watch movies. Outdoors she prefers bowling. It helps her unwind she says. She has an interest in basketball too. Oh! And she's not a fan of crowded places. It's not a phobia or anything but she feels alone amid crowds, even when she's with someone"

"Okay, thanks. I .."
"Andre, I have to get back to work now. You could get to know her better by taking her on a series of dates. Bye"
And with that, the call was disconnected.

I called the driver and asked if there was a private bowling alley nearby. He confirmed it and sent me the address.
"Should we go bowling?" I asked her
"Yeah, totally," she said beaming with smiles. I didn't expect her reaction.
"Do you like bowling?"
"Yeah I do"

-----------
We played bowling the whole evening and came back to the house when it was seven.
I let her take a shower first and made us dinner during that time. She came out and I showered right after.

"You prepared dinner?" She asked
"Yup. Let's eat"
"You're spoiling me," she said before eating
And I just smiled.

"Did you enjoy playing bowling today?"
I asked her when we were done eating.
"Yeah. Even though I lost to you. I mean I can't believe you scored a perfect strike. I was trying so hard to keep up with you. Are you sure this is your first time bowling?" She asked, furrowing a brow.

"Yup. Beginners luck maybe?" I said and she just nodded.
"Probably"
"Can we go to the amusement park tomorrow?" She asked.

"Well.. your sister said you don't like crowded areas"
"Oh, you already spoke to my sister?"
She asked and I just hummed, I'd been caught.
"Yeah, it's true. But I want to go with you.
And besides the park isn't really crowded."
" If you're fine with it. We could totally go"
