Friends Or Enemies? Love Maybe...

Chapter 10

Okay, this is my first time for doing notes suchh so ever but it won't be long, as I've always skipped them for other stories I bet your ass you'll do that too. So, just wanna say that even if some of the songs are classic and you may not be familiar with, I'd just want you to understand the meaning. So yeah....

A lonely night…

'           Day at home went as usual. Today is Sunday so Mom is at home all day long and we’re not planning to go anywhere. Mom cooked a nice lunch for me-which I meant is the nicest food she ever cooked in her entire life that must have come from a recipe book- and went to her aerobic class. I do my homework and read a novel by Sophie Kinsella.It’s the last book, Shopaholic and Baby, from the collection of The Shopaholic. Mom ordered pizza because she’s too exhausted to cook dinner.I’m feeling boring so I pick a movie randomly from the rack and play it. I’ve never felt this boring because my life was filled with climax lately. And I never felt this relax and so peaceful lately. Mom has gone to bed and I’m not feeling sleepy yet. I look through the window and I can see the brightness of the moon tonight has lighted the garden. I walk to the garden and sit on the bench. The flowers look very beautiful tonight. The pond is shining reflecting to the light of the stars and the moon. The silence of the night brings the felt of peaceful in my heart. The slow, steady and cold wind blows my nightdress and the feeling of cold lingers from my leg to my entire body.

            Mom is good at gardening. All the flowers in our garden bloom and change the garden to a rainbow. The smell of sunflowers beside me makes me sleepy. I pluck one of the rose in front of me and dance around the bench. I dance freely because I felt so calm and nothing bothers me right now. The silky dress I’m wearing move like it is accompanied by a soft, melodious and romantic music.Suddenly I accidentally knock someone behind me. I thought it’s mom but it’s not her, it’s him!Tucker was standing, maybe staring at me before I knock him down.

“Sorry, sorry, sorry, Tucker. I don’t know you’re there.” I lend my hand to him offering some help to get on his feet again. “No, no, I’m the one who should say sorry. I shouldn’t enter your house without your permission.” “Owh, never mind, you’re not trying to rob my house or something. Why are you here? I think it’s a quarter after one now. You should be in your bed now.” “You too should be in your bed now.” “I’m not feeling sleepy yet. Tonight felt so special and sweet for me. And the garden makes me feel peace.” Both of us sit on the bench and stare at the sky. “That’s right. Just now I saw the moon’s brightness lighted up your garden. I saw you sitting on the bench. So I came here.”

The sky is bright and the night breeze blows my hair softly. Suddenly Tucker moves his hand towards my hair and places it behind my ears. “I saw you dance just now. You’re a really good dancer. But I was once a great dancer before.” “You’re a dancer?” “Not anymore. But come on let’s see who’s the greater dancer.” Tucker stand in front of me and bowed to me. “Shall we?” I take his hands and stand right beside him. I put my hands behind his neck, he hugs my waist, and we move our body in a wave. We dance slowly and he whispers in my ears. “What song do you think is the best right now?” I didn’t answer but I start singing a Carpenter’s song We’ve Only Just Begun.

We’ve only just begun to live,

White lace and promises,

A kiss for luck and we’re on our way,

We’ve only begun.

Before the risin’ sun, we fly,

So many roads to choose,
