Still don't know my name

Chapter 11

LINA

That day was the most horrifying day of my life, I saw Zee frozen up in the chair, body sweating and eyes wide open and terror in her vision. I already placed appointment with Doc Styles after New year, second of January. Right now, we are travelling by road in our rental car. Zee is driving with windows down, it's clearly the most soothing long drive I ever had. Philly is Zee's hometown; it is slightly bigger than my hometown with some famous people living there. It is always swamped with Papzz. Zee's childhood home is the cutest double storey building, with white picket fence, it's like a dream come true home for people of our parents age.

Zee warned me earlier, her mom Sheila is the yoga instructor so no sweets in front of her and her dad Draxx is so cool, he will supply sweets to our room when her mom will be asleep at nine'o clock, she has some strict rules about bedtime as she says. When we pulled over in her driveway, her dad greeted Zee with a warm hug and for me he dropped a kiss on my cheek. Her mom came running in her yoga pants, sports bra and a cute dog tugged under her left arm. She sides hugged Zee and me and pulled us in a hurry. We reached the patio, and she told us to be quiet because apparently her dog is having some issue with his ears. ALRIGHT, won't make a sound.

Zee grazed me and I immediately blushed, after dating for months, I just can't handle how Zee stare at me with such intense fire in her green iris. She definitely resembles her mom in many areas, but her brunette hair is much of his father, his mother is a red head. Gosh her parents are the coolest, her mom asks me about what I play, will I play for them. I almost told them about Zee's freak out the other day, but it isn't my place to say anything.

We settled onto the couch, the living is an ancient with so many historic references and everything, I am in love. The wall is coloured to signify the ancient time, but the facilities is all modern. There is a huge television almost 72'. Zee told me, her mom watches different yoga shows and everything on it, and as her eyesight is not so good, they preferred a big TV. I spot a big Christmas in the utter left most corner of the house and it is already decorated. I thought we will help Mr. and Mrs. Prings.

"Shall I ask your mom whether we can make Hot coco, if she says no, that's alright, it's just that I have been craving that since forever." I pouted.

Zee chuckled and stood up and dragged me with her to the big kitchen, the counter is sleek black, and the cabinets are clean wood. OH MY GOD this house is really a dream come true, for me too. I would very much like to live in these types of houses any time.

"You can make whatever you want, just make it two, will you??" Zee made a puppy face.

"Won't your mom mind, me using your kitchen?" I questioned.

She giggled and came behind me and wrapped me in a hug, her hands on my hips and face buried in my neck. "Trust me, she won't, here Pa is the kitchen KING, and for him, spoiling me with hot coco is top priority. So, make it three I want pa to see how amazing cook you are, and I did not lure you in my sex charm." She sighed.

I chuckled, "What if I lured you in my sex charm sweet bean?" I quirked.

She made a thoughtful impression, slid me in a circle and placed me in front of her, her lips just mere inches from mine. "Don't you worry then, I will forever be trapped in your charms, sweetheart." She said and then kissed me hungrily. I pulled away and raised my brow, "Now we can make out in your parents' home, won't they catch us sweet bean, huh?"

"They are probably making out on the couch; they are ridiculously cute together and 100% disgusting showing PDA in front of their innocent child!!" She exclaimed.

So, we are allowed PDA. But damn, it's her parents, I don't want them to grasp me as horny teenager.

"No PDA for us, PG 13 only, get it sweet bean." She made a defeated face but then nodded. I sniggered. Zee showed me all the ingredients to make hot coco and she popped up in a kitchen bar stool and just like always grazed me while I work in the kitchen.

"Will you tell your parents about your therapy??" I asked.

She made a thoughtful impression and then beamed, "Of course, I will tell them, they were my biggest supporters in singing and since I quitted, they wanted me to start back again, so they will be so happy when I'll tell them, I am tryna heal through therapy and will be back in music world." She smiled.

I cheered up and gave her a hug, I prepared three mug of hot coco and gave one to her dad who is sitting draped over his wife on the couch, Zee mom don't eat sweets but won't mind us eating.

Zee cleared her throat and demanded everyone's attention, "So, ma and pa you already know I stopped singing after what happened, but few months back, I started singing again. Firstly, I sang to Cat." She smiled in my direction, my lips quirked in the memory. "And we had this whole gig for 21st dec, in our college fresher's party but you know what before the performance I froze in my place on the backstage. Lina came and tried to calm me down, pa I was having anxiety attack, it was all fine singing in front of Cat but the thought of singing in front of audience again was terrifying. Now, I don't want to be scared anymore, I don't want my past to haunt me, I have decided I will be going to a therapist to heal myself." She finished.

I kissed her cheeks in support. Her dad gave her a bear hug and her mom kissed her forehead.

"We are so glad baby you are trying to be better, just don't forget we are always there for you for anything. I am so sorry you had to go through that." Her dad pleaded.

"YAY!!!! My ZEE will sing again, I am so happy for you baby. I know how much you adore singing. Thankyou Lina for being there for my baby gurl, you both are adorable together." Her mom cheered.

I blushed, "Thank you, Sheila."

"Now, you sugar infused demons, let's get some cookies in our system." Her mom shocked us.

"Ma, are you alright, you are going to eat cookies??" Zee questioned.

"A PRETTY WOMAN NEED SUGAR TO SURVIVE ZEE, haven't I taught you that." Her mom shrugged.

I chuckled and stood up and grabbed the box of caramel cookies I baked back home which I brought here as a present, I opened the box and asked them to take some cookies, they took one each. As they took a bite of the sugar bomb, they all moaned. OH GOSH. Yes, they moaned. Her DAD raised a hand in his hair, ruffling it and looked me in my eyes and nodded and then to Zee, "Would you mind baby, if we keep your girlfriend for some days. This cookie is the best, we haven't eaten haven before, not even the best bakery of the town can serve this magic." Her dad cheered.

I have already thought about opening a bakery every time someone mentions how amazing I bake. It's just, I love music, I love baking.

"No pa, you cannot keep my girlfriend, then with whom I am gonna kiss and cuddle and have sex with, it's a big NO." Zee snapped.

Hearing sex in front her parents, I immediately went beat RED. My body is heating. Gosh Zee, I don't want to be seen as a horny teenager. I nudged Zee on her arms, and she rubbed that spot and mock wince. His parents laughed, gosh this family is making me want to dig myself a grave and bury myself there. I am so EMBARRESED. I stood up and ran out in the backyard.
