My One and Only Rival

Chapter 30

HER POV

TUESDAY

My thoughts were going back and forth, my mind still confused and uncertain about where Ares was taking me on todays date

I was already dressed up, now only waiting for the time to turn 8pm so I could walk downstairs

I was wearing a black skirt that went down to my ankles, with a little split on the side

On my upper body was a black top with short sleeves and a golden necklace

I looked to my phone

7.56pm

I got up from my bed, getting ahold of my white purse that matched my white sneakers and headed out of my room

Once I reached the stairs I heard rumbling in the kitchen

I stopped in my track, debating if I should wait for my uncle to leave the kitchen or just continue with my path

I still haven't told him about me and Ares

Regardless of what he might say, I walked down the stairs

He noticed me right away when I went to walk past the kitchen, quickly stopping me

"where are you going?"

I looked back to him

"out" I simply said

"with someone?"

I nodded

"who's the boy? should I be worried?"

"how do you know that I'm going out with a boy? it could just be Lia and Liam"

"I wasn't born yesterday" he said as he rested his arms on the kitchen's counter, not looking away from me

"fine, I'm going on a date, happy?"

"no"

"am I not allowed to?" I asked confused

"you are but I at least want to have a word with him before you go. I need to see if he's a good guy and how long you two will be out"

"he's a good guy and we'll be back before 11" I assured him

He simply continued to stare at me

"what's his name?"

I hesitated for a moment before saying it

"Ares"

"Sanchez?"

"yes"

"you're going out with your student?"

"it sounds weird when you say it like that" I cringed

He removed his arms from the counter and straightened up

"you know what I mean. It's not good to mix work with your personal life"
