I suddenly woke up in the car.
“Gabriela,” my sister called.
“Mhm...” I groggily replied.
“We're home,” she said.
“Go rest inside,” she said again.
I quickly got out of the car and hurried to my room. Before sleeping, I went to the bathroom.
“This day was tiring as I expected,” I whispered to myself.
After I finished in the bathroom, I quickly went to the sink for my skincare routine. After 20 minutes, I went to bed to rest, taking my phone with me.
I opened my phone and saw a message from Xian Lee, my close friend.
@XianLee: Gabriela, I heard you're getting married?
@GabrielaLuis: Yes, how did you know?
How did he find out? Only my family and Axel's family know about it. Maybe Mom told him; they're close. Mom treats Xian like her own son.
I was about to sleep when my phone rang.
“Who the hell is calling this late at night?” I grumbled to myself.
It was Xian.
“Why are you calling this late, Xian?” I said, with a sleepy tone.
“I'm coming over,” Xian said enthusiastically.
“And Mom Amelia allowed me to stay overnight,” he added.
“What-” I started.
This guy called late at night just to sleep over? Before I could finish, he abruptly ended the call. Rude, Xian, ending the call so abruptly.
I just rolled my eyes. I had no choice but to wait for him to arrive.
After a few minutes, Xian was already at the house. I quickly opened the door. He had food and clothes with him.
“Why are you here?” I asked, annoyed.
“Is it not allowed?” he replied.
“Why are you here?” I asked again.
He didn't answer my question and just went inside. Wow, Xian really feels at home. I followed him to our living room.
“Why are you even here, Ian?” I asked again.
“Mom and Dad went to Paris for an important meeting, that's why,” Xian replied.
“And there are a lot of things you need to explain to me, Riela,” he added.
“Oh, strawberry ice cream,” he said, handing me a strawberry ice cream.
“You really know me, Xian,” I said, smiling.
“Is Ella home already?” he asked.
“Yes,” I replied as I ate my ice cream.
“I heard from Mom Amelia that you're getting married, to whom?” he asked seriously.
“To Axel, my high school crush,” I replied.
“I thought you had moved on from him?” he said, chuckling.
“Why are you laughing?!” I said, with an annoyed tone.
Who would want to move on? He's handsome and seems caring. The woman who marries him is lucky. A.K.A. Me.
After we finished eating, I quickly escorted him to the guest room and went back to my room to sleep.
I woke up to a knock on my door. I got up and opened it. It was just Xian, always like this guy.
“Good morning!” he greeted me, then entered my room.
“Good morning,” I greeted him back.
“Let's go out,” he cheerfully invited.
“It's too early, Ian,” I said.
“Hm... Early? It's already 10:50, Riela,” he said.
“What!?” I exclaimed. It's already 10:50.
"I already informed Mom Amelia,” he said.
“Okay!”
“I'll wait for you downstairs, okay?” he said and quickly went downstairs.
Sorry, this update took a while. I'll make it up for it :) - misseyyana.
