JAH SAYS

2: Jahseh and Herah 💜

Herah is the only one who will be coming over today among our friends.

I didn't want to be alone.

I hear her knock at the door and, excited to spend one-on-one time with her, I run downstairs to open it.

"Hey!" I say hugging her tightly.

"Hey... Jahboy..." She says, wearing a guilty expression on her face.

My eyes then land on another grinning figure behind her.

"Who?" I ask, pointing to the girl behind her.

"Oh, Jah, this is Sara. Sara, this is-"

"Xxtentraction!" Sara pitches.

"Yeah, I know." She says pushing her way into my house.

I look at Herah, trying to hide my expression of immense disappointment then sigh.

Allowing her to come in, I then take ahold of Herah's hand as she takes her jacket off.

"I thought it was only gonna be me and you..." I cannot help but tell her.

Herah stops and looks at me with an unpleasant and surprised expression on her face.

What? Does she think that I don't want to hang out with her or something?

This causes my mood to hit the numbers in the negative.

"I...I'm sorry Jah. She has nowhere else to go." Herah tells me.

"We're stuck with her. And here I was thinking you'd be cool if she spent the week here with you." Herah says, joking.

She is joking... right?

I let her hand go.

Now I'm pissed.

Herah reads my expression clearly as she then starts laughing. I step close to her to whisper scream.

"No way she's staying here. I can already tell how annoying she is! She called me Xxtentraction-" I say.

"Jah. I'm kidding." She says.

Oh.

"You are short-fused. God!" Herah says.

I chuckle, looking down.

Does this mean that I get to spend time alone with Herah? I wonder...

"So... How long will she stay?" I ask her, the fate of my good mood riding on her answer.

"Only a few minutes. Her father will come and pick her up." Herah says.

I love her.

"Ok. Cool," I say playing the whole thing off.

When I'm with her, I look at myself as more sensitive and...I hate it. I hope she doesn't think I'm weak just because of it...or that I like her. I do like her but that's only for me. I hope she doesn't notice it at all, actually.
