I like you~ [On Hold]

Chapter 6

[Ethan]

"So how was your day?" My mom looked unexpectedly at me once I've entered the house. Mini-condo, whatever it's called.

I shrugged taking my time to remove my shoes before giving my mom a kiss on the cheek. "It was alright."

"And?" She pressed.

I sighed, "I'm really tired mom. Can we talk tomorrow?"

"Oh! Offcourse. Go ahead then. I'm assuming you already ate dinner?"

I just nodded before heading to my bedroom. Placing my bag on the chair, I immediately fell on my bed, closing my eyes.

"What!?"

Blake grinned leaning more, our faces just a few centimeters away. I can practically feel his breath on my face, and it smelt like coffee. I was too chocked at what he said, that I didn't have time to pull away.

"You're really cute, you know."

Before he could do or say anything else I shot out of my seat, "I need to go now. Thanks for the treat." I ran out of the cafe shop, not bothering to ask directions as I just ran. As far as I can.

I remember passing by different small shops before taking a right turn where I ended up to dead end alleyway.

I gasped for air, leaning onto my knees. My heart racing against my chest. I'm not really a sporty person, and this is the first time I've properly used my legs. Running, offcourse.

"He's crazy. " I muttered once I've calmed myself. "I have to avoid him at all cost."

I groaned once I've straightened my back. I took out my phone and opened the app to help myself get out of this place. And luckily enough I was actually a few blocks away from home.

Instead of looking for a taxi, I opted to walk the distance. I needed to think, and walking helps me. So my mind wandered back to what happened earlier..

I can still remember him grinning when he said that it was a date.

I've never gone out on a date, so maybe he meant as friends?

I thoughtfully placed a finger on my chin. Maybe he meant that?

Do guys go out on dates with each other? Is that perhaps normal in Japan. I don't want to assume things since I'm new here, and the culture is definitely different from back home.

I can ask my parents about it, but they're new like me. So in the end I'm deciding if I should ask either Alex about it or Maya?

Wait! Maya?!

I shook my head. No way.

Alex and Kai. They could answer my questions best. But I don't think I can see them without running into Blake.

I internally groaned, face-palming. Great, I only have one last choice left. I still have to thoroughly think about this though.

I remember waking up in the middle of the night.I groaned, rolling onto my side. The clock read 2am.
