CHAPTER FOUR
“What time is it?” I said and lazily dragged myself out of bed. There was something wrong as my alarm hadn’t rung and neither did mom wake me up. I stood up straight and went down where I saw mom watching TV on the couch.
“Mom?” I said. She turned back and smiled at me.
“Good morning honeeey!” she sang. I sat beside her on the couch and stared blankly at the TV screen.
“What time did you get home last night?” I asked her. She looked up at the ceiling for a long time and then said—
“I don’t quite remember.”
I smirked at her answer and got up to brush my teeth and freshen up.
“What time did Harry leave yesterday?”
Harry? There wasn’t a second to waste as I had forgotten he was coming early today.
“Oh crap mom! He’s coming early I have to take a bath!” I said running up the stairs.
“What? You guys are going to study on a Sunday?” she yelled.
“Well, yeah….he wants to finish the project—“ I slipped on my doormat and fell flat on my face. “—soon.” I continued still face flat on the ground.
“Anna when are you going to start taking care of yourself? I have always told you NOT to run—“ mom started to say but I had absolutely no time to listen so I kept my door open but rushed directly into the bathroom. I could still here her while I stood under the shower and I hope that could make for not having eye contact with her. I brushed my teeth while taking bath and also wasted a whole lot of shampoo on myself. I dropped the soap about million time on the floor which finally made it look like horribly dislocated clay. I took fifteen minutes in the bathroom because of the nuisance my soap and shampoo were creating but as soon as I got out I went halfway out of my room to tell mom to ask Harry to wait if he comes.
“Mom, if Harry comes—“ I started to say when I noticed Harry sitting on the couch along with mom. He looked at me and his expression changed into somewhat surprised and amused.
“Shit!” I managed to carry myself back into my room and shut it close. I leaned on the door and thought about what had just happened.
HARRY HAD JUST SEEN ME WITH ONLY MY TOWEL ON. TOWEL THAT BARELY REACHED MY KNEES!!
I was going through a major panic attack and my body was heating up like a sauna. What would he think of me? I’m so freaking EXPOSED. I showed part of my body to HARRY!!
HARRY is the first guy to see a few parts of my body which I would even dare to show anyone.
I got myself together and grabbed a pair of clothes and put them on. I neatened my unmanageable hair and clipped it backwards. I took a deep breath and stepped outside my room. I decided I wouldn’t talk about what just happened and act as if it never happened.
As I walked down the stairs I heard mom to talking to Harry about the movie they were watching on TV. They were behaving as if they knew each other since ages! This was crazy!
When I reached them both I put on a disgusting expression and faced mom. She looked at me and then turned to Harry who had a wide smile spread across his face with his dimples and all showing. For the first time I hated them. I felt like poking the hell out of them. I realized I was blushing really bad so I turned to mom and said—
“We need to work.”
“Oh sure. Harry you better go or she’ll explode.” My mom joked and Harry chuckled but I maintained my disgusted expression on my face. Harry slowly got up and followed me. He was still staring at the TV screen and I practically had to pull him by his arm to the dining table. He looked slightly alarmed by it but I had to clear things out.
