Alicia's POV
I waited for Adrian to come at my house as I was putting on my Favourite Beanie. He was supposed to come at around 6pm but the time now is almost time 7pm. I heaved a Loud tiring sigh. Guys are guys... My stomach growled loudly. I touched them hoping that it would make a difference but instead, it growled louder. I am really hungry and I don't see Adrian anywhere.
My phone vibrated instantly as I was in the process of unlocking it. The caller ID was Niall. Oh no, what does he needs now? I made up my mind and accepted the call.
"Hello! What's up?"
"Hey, Ali! (short form for Alicia) I was wondering if you want to hang out with me tonight? I'm kinda bored"
"I would love to. But I can't. I'm so sorry."
As soon as the words came out from my mouth, I heard a horn outside my house. Expecting it was Adrian, I cut the call.
"Sorry, I gotta go. Talk to you later. Bye!" I didn't even gave the chance for him to response but I ended it already. I slid my phone in my jeans pocket and lock the door since I was leaving.
I turned around to find Adrian leaning against the door of his car, focusing on his phone. I cleared my throat to get some attention while walking towards his car.
"Get in."
I nodded my head and did what he instructed.
"What took you for so long? I'm really hungry you know." I pouted.
"I can see that." he teased.
I crossed my arms around my chest as I stick my eyes to the road. He laughed silently.
It is quite awkward though. I now knew that he was 2 years younger than me. So yeah.... you know that kind of felling? If you get it, good for you. If you don't, too bad.

Adrian, being a gentlemen and opened the door to his car for me. I got out of it and I was hit by a cool breeze of wind. I love this weather. I glance over at Adrian as he was unlocking the door to his house. I followed closely behind him.
His house outside was turquoise in colour, with only some parts are painted white. Beautiful. I wonder how the inside looks like.
Wait Alicia, my objective here is to eat and being a investigator. Not judging his house. Thinking back, I asked him,
"Are you staying here with your parents?"
"Nah. I live alone here."
"Oh."
He finally open the door wide enough for me to walk in before him.
"Your house is beautiful. The way you arrange your furniture and all."
"Thanks. It is with the help of someone."
"Who?"
"My... ex..." he stuttered.
"Sorry..."
"It's okay. It's not a big deal anyways. Cmon, let's dig in. The After that I can show you around my house."
I nodded my head following him to the kitchen table.
--- (After dinner)
I was walking down the hallway on the second level and there were some pictures of him, possibly from his youngest age to now. It is really cool though. The fact that the picture is well taken and edited to make it look much much more beautiful. It was arrange in a up down up down way so it was really fascinating. I took a while to look closely at every picture displayed. The first one that I saw was him with.... my.... father... I guess? I don't know. He was at the beach, making a sandcastle which doesn't even look like one and was smiling to the camera. Memories flashed back through my head but i cant remember anything. My father (maybe) was at the back of him, with his arms around him. Awww.... That's cute okay. You can't blame me. I looked at other pictures and I finally stop At one. It was the picture he posted on instagram. The half picture. I looked at it closely and I recognized it was me and my mum. I took out the other half In my clutch and hold it next to the picture which was displayed. Oh my, it perfectly fit. Suddenly I heard footsteps behind me. Expecting it to be Adrian, I shoved the picture back in my pocket. Phew. That was close.
