Next to him in these hours, I could sense that he was lying about his sentiments, the way he acted anxious, and the breaking of phrases while responding to me, all of this completely shows that he's been through something bad in his past or maybe the present.
After having the snacks David brought for us. I left for my apartment with Steve, he walked me halfway. I took a cab and he rode to his home.
It's almost six in the evening and I got one hour late today. I walked upstairs, checking my phone. I was about to unlock the door when Grace showed up with her guitar.
"Late? Or do you forever come at these hours?" she questioned.
"No. It was a hectic day" I say.
"Cooper!" She looks energetic "Wanna hear the new tune I made it yesterday night"
"Come in" I replied grinning.
The place was a whole mess I didn't get a bit to clean all the stuff. Grace stares at me furrowing her eyebrows. I feel so embarrassed of myself in this moment.
"Umm..." I gave a sheepish smile. "I didn't get time for cleaning"
"Okay! Well. I can help you with the stuff" She dropped her guitar on the couch.
"I am blessed," I muttered.
I tidied up the clothes and the kitchen while Grace finished her part, she's a speedy lassie.
I wonder about the scar she had on her shoulder. I didn't ask her when we met first. What if my query makes her cry again? I will wait for a better moment for this conversation.
"Cooper! Are these arts your doings? " she asked picking up the sketch sheets from the desk.
"Indeed." I leaned down for the coffee mug for grace, I already have one out. She kept darting one by one, giving all her attention to the sketches.
After finishing off at last, I sprayed water on the only plant I had after moving in here.
"It's so fan-and-tastic! Copper." She cried out startlingly, I faced her standing still. What makes her amazed? It's just a sketch.
I grinned. "Let's have coffee and listen to your new tune." she stepped towards me with another question.
"Why is it just Boston Fern?" She's correct about the plant.
"I didn't get a chance to shop. It was outside the apartment. I just grabbed it." she nodded with an okay with me.
....................
She is so perfect at playing guitar. It seems she's so into the rhythm and her stunning fingers touching the strings. I am posing on the couch, My eyes are locked on her.
"Did you like it? Am going to play this at the outdoor event"
"Event? " I asked her in chaos.
"Yes I am invited to this year's event" she took a sip of coffee "And I am so enthusiastic"
Is she invited to our campus? It would be great to have her since I had no girls around.
"Copper? It's in your place. You didn't know?"
Coming out of my thoughts and imaginary picture, I commented. "Ahh... Yeah! I got to know today" I can predict what's next her question. I am sure she will ask me to be there.
"Let's hit the ground" She's full of beans.
"I haven't decided yet," I say.
"Make up your mind as soon as possible. Okay?"
"Aye..." I signed "I'll let you know Grace"
I think I should be with them. however, I had fewer mates. Maybe I can interact with others. It will be the foremost event I will attend in this city. Even though I am exhausted Grace's tunes saved my day.
