-Sarah, get up!- I felt a soft hand on my face. The giant palm fit on my face, caressing my pale skin. After I opened my eyes, the boy with greenish-blue eyes faced me. His beautiful, now perfect face illuminated all the existing points of my dark past. His smile brightened my day, his voice sweetly jolted me out of my everyday life-Good morning again!-the boy chuckled as I poked his face. At this action, the boy's mouth opened, a wide smile spread across his lips. Seeing the grin, I had to smile too.-Pack your things and then we can go.-he climbed out of the car, extending his hand towards me and pulling me up from the seat. I stretched myself and started walking towards the house, when I noticed that Charles was not following me. Turning back, I observed that he was still standing next to his car with his hands in his pockets.

-What, you're not coming?- I looked at him, and he pulled his hands out of his jacket and ran next to me. We got into the elevator in silence, it was starting to get a little awkward when the elevator finally beeped and we could get out. My apartment was next door to the elevator, so I didn't have to walk a lot to get there. I put my hand on the door and anxiously directed my gaze to the boy who looked at me with a smile.-I'm just saying that what you will see now is not a dream home. I'm not a millionaire, so don't be surprised by what's inside!

-You don't have to explain yourself. - Charles put his hands up when I chuckled and opened the door to the apartment. I walked into the room and let the boy take in all the noise of my charming home. I dropped my bag on my armchair and spread out on the bed.

When we entered the apartment, I found myself in a much nicer apartment than expected. The white walls made all the existing points of the house bright. I looked at Sarah, whose perfect eyes sparkled more than they should, but she nodded in agreement, so I set off on a discovery tour. Turning to the left, I looked at the kitchen, where the shine of the black marble-patterned counter was in perfect harmony with the snow-white kitchen table. The plants dominated the whole place and I adored every single point of the house. I walked back into the hall, where the bathroom door opened. Walking in, the brown tiles gave the huge space a romantic atmosphere. A huge bathtub stood at the edge of the room, which almost resembled a jacuzzi. -Oh my god, I've never looked so good!- I heard my voice coming out of Sarah's phone. I smiled involuntarily. Is it a problem if I dream that one day I will live here too, with her?

I was just scrolling down my tiktok when an edit about Charles popped into my foryou. His now famous sentence echoed throughout the house. After a few seconds, I discovered the boy at the door.

-I love your apartment.- he said smiling as I sat up on the bed with my eyes wide open.-When you said how it looks, I thought it would be much worse than this but..-he stopped.-This house is beautiful.-he nodded and I pulled my lips into a smile.-And that marble pattern kitchen counter. That's my favorite thing of the whole house.-He walked over to my bed and gave me a questioning look, to which I nodded. With a big movement, he fell down on the bed next to me and rested his eyes on me, and I stared ahead. When the awkward silence was about to set in, my phone suddenly rang, which woke both of us up from staring. I reached for my phone on the pillow, and it showed a cute picture of me and Carlos. I picked up the phone with a smile, then put it on speaker and we started communicating.

-Hello Sarah, I thought I'd call you to see if you've packed yet. Well honestly, I'm bored here alone, so I'll ask what's in the news.-I put my hand to my mouth for the first half of the sentence. We completely forgot about packing and we only have 2 hours to get to the plane.

-Hiii, Carlos, I'm giving the phone to Charles now because I forgot that I should pack my things, so I have to do it, talk to the boy until then.-I dropped the phone on my bed and ran to the other side of the room to get my suitcase.
