Star * Heart

Chapter 25

Our first glances..

We finally got back from the training camp and it was very awesome! When I was enjoying my lazy morning, I finally got a text message from Zaeim. How? Oh, we exchanged numbers before departing our ways after arriving at our college. My phone was ringing loudly, in case of waking my roommates up, I quickly open it.

'hey, it's finally today' test message. 'today?' I wondered.

'Oh, crap!' I got up from my bed quickly and grabbed my towel and all my shower needs. I woke my roommates up by the noises.

After finishing a short shower, I return to my room. 'that was quick..it's rare for you to take a short shower' said Aika. I laughed. 'going somewhere?' asked Risya who woke up as well. 'yeah..promised a friend' I said. 'Zaeim?' she asked again. I glares at her. Who knows, Zaeim and Risya knew each other since the orientation week. 'bought us McD' said Aika after I grabbed my bag. I turned to her, 'seriously?' I asked. Both Aika and Risya nods. 'I'll see what I can do' I said. I left the room.

I head toward the gate of the collage, I'll be meeting Zaeim there at the bus-stop. Yup, we're going to the town by bus, local one. As I arrived there, I saw Zaeim was already waiting for me. He wore a long-sleeves t-shirt. He never wore long sleeve shirt before. Unlike Harry..Harry likes long-sleeves since he always wore long sleeves.

'hey' he said greeting me. I smiled. 'what?' he asked. 'nothing. It's the first time you wore long sleeves' I said. He laughed. 'no. not first. I wore formal clothe with long-sleeve to classes' he said. Really? Well, why should I care? LOL. 'well, Harry likes long-sleeves' he added. I sat next to him. 'I think I can guess about that' I said. I glances at me. Silence.

'did Harry asked you about me asking you out?' he asked after a short silent. We noticed that many other student came to the bus-stop. They wanted to go to the town too, I assumed. 'Sheira?' he called. 'ye-yeah? sorry, I wasn't listening' I said. He chuckles. 'it's okay. Nevermind' he said. He glances around. 'oh, those are my friends' he said. I glances toward a direction and saw a group of boys and girls. They waved at us, we answered it. 'they will make a gossip' said Zaeim sighing. I laughed. 'they might' I agreed. 'you don't mind?' he asked. I shakes my head. 'it is called, natural phenomenon' I said. We laughed. After a while, the bus arrived.

About 15 minutes in the bus, we arrived at the town. We head to a mall there. I looked around. 'how many times have you came here before?' he asked. 'rarely' I said short. 'well, we boys hang out here always' he laughed. 'what did you do?' I asked. 'bowling, movies..arcade' he briefed it short. 'so, should we go?' he said after noticing I was laughing. Well, it's because we was very excited just now. Like a kid. That's why I laughed.

We went to a very awesome and unique shop. There, they sold all many kinds of props and merchandises. 'what does Rhythm need?' I asked him while looking around the shop. 'I dont know. Something that can help us for the clothe-up' he said. 'theme?' I asked. 'something cool' he said. I glares at him. 'I mean..white and aqua blue for the color' he said. Now you know how I look when I'm angry, Zaeim. Me and him went to separate corners of the shop. 'The Coffees also needs some outfit props' I said to myself.

As I was looking around, I saw a white snapback with a aqua blue bandana on it. 'oh' I said and grabbed it. This is cool. It's white in color. I remembered Harry. He always wore his snapback anytime anywhere. It's rare to see his bare hair without any hat, cap or snapback. 'should we bought this for him?' asked Zaeim who suddenly popped up behind me. I was surprised. 'what? who?' I asked. I was very surprised. 'Harry' he said. He was controlling his laughter. I'm sure he noticed my reaction. 'why?' I asked playing along with Zaeim. 'he likes caps and snapback' he said. 'I'm sure this one suited him since he has milky-white skin' he added again after grabbing the snapback from my hand. I wonder why did he mentioned Harry instead of him? 'why do you suddenly mentioned him?' I paused. He glances at me. 'I mean, you're a guy too..don't you love this kind of thing as well? Instead of buying this for Harry, why dont you buy it for yourself?' I asked him. He smiled. 'we argued..' he paused.

'but, Harry has been my bestfriend for life' he said and his words manage to soften my heart. 'okay, let's get this for him' I said grabbing the snapback from him. He laughed. 'how about The Coffees?' he asked. 'oh, Fira and Shila are in charge of our outift' I said. 'I just hope..it's nothing too girlish. I dont like fake make-ups' I said and managed to make him laughed again. 'But, Sheira. The them for the dinner night, isn't is Ladies and Gentlemen's theme?' he paused. I stopped and turned to him. 'girls as to wear girls ladies-like, boys have to wear gentlemen-like' he added. I shakes my head. 'not necessarily' I paused. i grins at him. 'the theme is Ladies and Gentlemen, right?' I asked. He nods. 'doesn't mean girls have to wear ladies-like and on..I can also wear something gentlemen-like' I said. He chuckles. 'man..' he sighed.

'I'll go and pay this' he said taking along the stuff we chose for Rhythm adding with the snapback. Paying using Rhythm's money. I was about to follow him when I got a text, I open it and read;

'Sheira, are you free tonight?' – Harry. I saw that he was online so I reply immediately. 'I don't think so, why?' – Me.

'where are you?' he asked.

'out' I said short.

'oh, with Zaeim?' he asked.

'yes' I answered.

'how about tomorrow night?' – Harry.

'I don't know. The Coffees will have a practice again' – Me.

'spare some short time for me, please?' – Harry.

'why? – me

'have dinner with me' – Harry
