A Girl Next Door

Birthday

Hunter POV:

'Why did you do that? I don't expect you to do it, hunter.' Brighitta asks me on the phone.

"I know what I did was wrong. But what she was doing was also wrong. I don't know why she can not see he's using her." I said on the call, connecting via Bluetooth in my car as I drove to my apartment.

I know what I did was wrong. I shouldn't interface in her love life.

I shouldn't hurt lox like this.

She was the first one who would save me when I was in danger.

'Where are you now? Are you with Lox now?'

"No, I left Bali in the morning. Now I'm on my way to my apartment." I said as I parked my car in my apartment parking space.

'Why do you go there? Just came here. You shouldn't go there now. You know you are avoiding your melody', she said, concerned.

I know I shouldn't get back to my apartment.

I even promised my melody that I wouldn't meet her.

"I know, Bri. I just came to get a file. I will get back without her knowing," I said as I walked toward the elevator and pressed the button as I waited for it to open.

'I don't know why we all always have a problem when it is Love' she asks.

"You know you shouldn't talk about problems in love after getting married" I said as I laughed at her.

'Haha, OK did you arrive?' she asks as change the topic.

"Yeah. Waiting for a lift" I said as I pressed the button again.

'Then try your best not to meet your melody' she says lowly.

I rolled my eyes, "OK Bri. She might be with her boyfriend now" I said.

'OK, are you sure your OK to be there now?' she asks.

At the same time, the elevator door opened as it showed a girl sitting on the floor holding a bag close to her body sobbing silently.

'Melody'.

LOXLEY'S POV:

It's my birthday.

I know I shouldn't feel so excited.

But being with Nevin makes me feel so happy.

Every night I have stayed at his place since hunter left, so we stay together.

As always, we went to a restaurant to have our lunch and roam around till night, and we watched movies in his living room and slept on his couch as he held me closely.

I play "la la land" at midnight and watch it with him. It was one of my birthday wishes to watch "la la land" in color with someone I love.

Then I woke him up to see the sunrise on our private beach. He might think I'm weird, but I want to enjoy this birthday with him and complete my wishes with him.

We had our breakfast at the nearby restaurant and went back to his house. I took a shower in his room and changed into one of his t-shirts and shorts.

I lay on his bed as I waited for him to finish his shower. I grab his pillow and hug it as I hear the sound of water from his shower.

I looked around and saw that he had no things like photos, posters or anything in his room other than his work stuff.

His bathroom door opens as he walks in wearing his black sweatpants with a towel around his neck to dry his hair.
