The Landlord

fifteen - who?

I am currently hugging and screaming on my pillow. All I can think of is her, I never thought of a person this way. She's giving me so much that I cannot imagine someone else anymore. The way she touches me, it feels like I'm safe and I am loved. The way she speaks to me, I feel like she wants to kiss me everytime. All I want is in her. I need her. I want her. And I can't get her off my mind.

I checked ny wristwatch; it's already 6pm and I haven't had anything since lunch. I had Larissa though?!

I went out of my room so I could get dinner. Maybe Larissa hasn't taken her dinner too. Should I ask her if she wants me to get something? And of course, it's another excuse for me to see her. There's no denying.

"Lari? Larissa? Are you there? I am about to have dinner. You want me to get something for you? Or you can come if you want." I spoke at the door mic. I waited for 5 seconds and I still haven't gotten a response. Maybe she's not home yet. I went out of our apartment and I was frightened when I saw a woman from afar. She is behind the tree, staring at our apartment. It was dark so I did not see her clearly. I just assumed that she is a woman because of her hair.

I walked towards it and I saw nothing. Oh, so we're seeing ghosts now?

My thoughts were interrupted when my phone rang. It's my Uncle Chow.

"Hello?"

"My little potato, how are you?"

"I'm great. What about you?"

"Doing good. I just wanna check out on you and tell you that I might visit you sometime if free time comes."

"Sure..."

"How is Larissa? Is she looking after you?"

I smiled when I heard her name, "Yeah, she does."

"That's great. I told her, not a single scratch please. You're quite clumsy, you know that. You always fall."

"Actually, I have." I fell for her.

"What? What fell?" Apparently, my panties, Uncle.

"Umm, I said I have to do something so I have to drop this."

"Well, okay. Take care, okay?"

I dropped the call as soon as I realized that I was out of our street already. I saw Bri's Brews from afar, but I think I cannot handle to see Brienne for now. Maybe I need space and time to think of my poor decisions. It's just that, Brienne is so pure but I always imagine Larissa whenever Brienne and I are doing our business. I don't know what's wrong with me.

I took a different way to avoid walking across Bri's Brews. While walking, a delicious aroma got my attention. It's from an Italian diner that I came across. I entered and the smell of the food is really getting me. It's a simple diner; not too small, not too big. I sat behind the bar since there are fewer people in this area.

"Hello, ma'am. What can I get for you?" The waiter asked me.

"Hi! Umm, what are your bests?"

"One of our best sellers is Chicken Parm salad."

"I'll get that." I confidently said even if I'm not really used to ordering and eating by myself.

"Would that be all, madame? What about for your appetizer?" he handed me the menu and the meatballs really caught my attention.

"I'll have the Italian meatballs, I'd love to try it."

"Wonderful. I'll be back with your order."

"Umm. Where's the restroom?" I asked when I suddenly had the urge to use the restroom.
