Chapter 12
A week has gone that fast. While Rizza was watering some plants outside, a man approached her.
"Excuse me ma'am, good morning! Is there someone named Kyri living here? It's the address indicated here."
"Yes, she's inside."
"There's a special delivery for her."
As she noticed the long red rectangular box, four times bigger than the box of a cake roll. She stood by the window and called Kyri. "Something came. Hurry up!"
Kyri halted on what she's doing and rushed out the door. "What is it?"
"Package ma'am." the delivery personnel said.
"From whom?" she asked.
"Sorry to tell ma'am, but the sender wants to keep it a secret for a while. You might know him too. That's what he said."
"Secret admirer brad?" Rizza poked Kyri. "What if, if that's a bomb?" she added playfully.
The man laughed. "We assure you it's not. We will lose customers if we let that happen."
"Can you sign here ma'am?" he motioned to Kyri.
She took the pen and signed the paper.
......
They stared at the box as if it will automatically open. Walked around it as if they were praying over it.
"It might be from Lander." Rizza bet.
"You think so?"
"Aish! Go open it now. My excitement is getting impatient."
Kyri carefully loosened the white ribbon. Next, she slowly removed the top cover. She's stunned to see what's inside. It was three furry round objects in color orange, pink, and green. They cracked up upon seeing it. They are plush toys of Mojacko, Mojari, and Mojaro.
"Oh my! They are so cute like they are real!" Rizza squawked. "Brad, who do you think will give these to you?"
Kyri shrugged. She remembered she had mentioned that she has likings on these creatures to Andrew. "Could it be him?" she thought and sighed deeply.
......
Morning again, Kyri woke up early. She jogged a little near the shore. After more than twenty minutes, she stood in the spot where she could watch the nice view of the sunrise. She always waits for it everytime she would get up that early. As she's waiting, somebody grabbed her by the waist, lifted her, and put her on his shoulder. She bent up her head but nobody was in the surrounding yet. She screamed her lungs out. "Help!!!" She's hitting the back and struggling to get free. The next thing she knew she was put back to the ground. They were in the Jet Ski area. She's tried to yell but nothing escaped her mouth until she saw his face, "A—Andrew?"
"Miss me?"
Kyri snorted. "I don't like your jokes. Why you're always doing this to me? Are you trying to kill me?"
He lifted her again and carried her to the Jet Ski and positioned her in the back seat. As he sat, he got Kyri's hands and circled them on his waist. He then started the engine. "Hold tight."
"Andrew!" she squealed.
"I said hold tight!"
"I'm scared! I don't know yet how to swim!" she shouted as she snuggled him. Her eyes closed.
