I can't believe Alex talked me into this again. This is like the 100th time she convinced me for helping her out. I love her but she can be a pain in the ass. I still can't figure out whether it was better when we were kids or now. I remember I use to take care of her more than anyone .mom told me when I was 4, I used to cry in front of her to get me sibling and when Alex came, I was very happy. At first, I considered it as my duty to take care of her because grandfather used to tell "frontízoume af̱toús you agapáme" which means "we take care of those we love"...since then I take care of everyone I love. I'll protect them by hook or crook.
"Remind me, why agreed to you, for sabotaging my privacy?!" I asked while flipping the omelet with a heavy sigh.
I tried to put some sense into my annoying, yet beloved sister.
"Oh! don't be so dramatic Ethos" she scoffed.
" You won't even feel her presence," she said as a matter of fact.
"I highly doubt that" I said reminding her, the type of friends she has with my comment to which she just rolled her eyes.
Someone cleared their throat. Alex and my head snapped at the same time to it.
There stood a girl- a messy bun, glasses, and an off-shoulder sweat t-shirt with a bag. she looked at me for a brief second and then shifted her gaze to Alex. She lipped 'sorry' to her for sneaking in.
" Eva!!" Alex jumped off her stool to hug her.
'Not feel her presence?' she isn't something you can ignore either...
Even when they were hugging, I couldn't stop looking at her. when I think, why should I even think about looking away!? It's not they are lesbians...? Are they?
Of course not!! Alex would have told me. So, I kept looking at Eva.
She looked in my direction, more accurately glared at me but I didn't look away. why should I! This is my house and the girl she's hugging is my sister. I folded my arms across my chest.
She was tall because she had to bent down a little to hug Alex.
When she released her, I couldn't help but notice her figure. she was slim but I couldn't make out how much as she was wearing loose clothes. although her face was small, cheekbones visible, and light brown eyes were transparent. they were beautiful.
I cleared my throat to gain their attention.
" Oh! I forgot." Alex said slapping her forehead.
She brought Eva with her while approaching me.
Eva came to stop in front of me while Alex stood in between us.
I liked her height; she was tall and reached up to my shoulder. Her plump lips got my most attention. I like them.
" Eva, this is my brother Ethos, and Ethos this is Eva," she said introducing us.
We shook hands but held hands for more than normal. Throughout this moment we kept looking at each other, straight in the eyes.
She wasn't afraid of me.
I smiled at the thought because everyone is.
It was like she was challenging me, telling me that I don't scare her. yet it was one of the most fascinating things I found out about her in such a short time, how quickly she changes her facial expression .earlier when she was hugging Alex, she was smiling but then instantly looked at me with a dead expression.
Neither we smiled at each other nor said a word, just a slight nod.
I want to make up right na na na .
I want to make up right na na na ....Alex's phone rang. only she can put something like this.
" Excuse me. I need to get this" she said looking at the caller ID and left.
Eva and I stood there alone in awkward silence.
" How long have you known Alex?" I asked with no emotion.
" Long enough," she said blinking her beautiful eyes
"Long enough to sneak into my house. "I said a little pissed off. No matter how attractive she looks she sneaked into my house.
I took her moment to decipher the meaning and I could see her expression Turing from confusion to anger.
"Are you trying to say that I am a thief!" She spoke. I could see her nose flaring with anger .her cheeks turning red.
" Maybe you are...after all you are a stranger to me!" I said stepping close to her. I wanted her to be scared of me, but it wasn't working. She was still glaring at me without even blinking her eyes.
" I am sorry I had to leave you guys," Alex said entering the room. Eva and I both immediately took a step back.
" Did something happen?" She asked.
" NO!" Eva and I both lied at the same time. we looked at each other in shock. Alex was looking at us in confusion.
" Whatever !" She said dragging Eva away.
" Come on. I'll show you your room" Alex said to her.
" Okay .let me just get my stuff," Eva said moving towards the door.
"Ethos can you get them?!" Alex said looking at me for approval.
I sighed and nodded.
"Nice first impression, by the way," I spoke when I was close enough to Eva so that only she can hear me.
She glared at me to which I scoffed.
