An Asian Falling For An Italian. [EDITING]

Nine.

I sat there. With my jaw hanging as if I broke a world record.

"Mam, sir I want to court Jennylyn."

Those words rang and repeated in my head. Before I stared at my mum and dad I stood up and left the house.

Leaving everyone there in shock.

I ended up walking to the park. I sat on the bench. I turned on my phone.

Great.

I texted them 'Dad I'm gonna walk out and think for a while. Don't worry I'll be back by 10pm" my phone turned off.

'0%'
No charge.
Low bat.
Zero.

I walked out in my school uniform, they were creased. Ahhh it's getting so cold. I started to shiver but then I stood up and walked over to the swings. Then I don't even know why but I started to sing broken hearted by Karmin. It's a catchy song.

'Now I'm here in a sticky situation
Got a little trouble, yep and now I'm pacing
Five minutes, ten minutes, now it's been an hour
Uh don't wanna think too hard, but I'm sour'
I paused.

After a while I put my head down and started to sing again.
'Honest baby, I'll do anything you want to
So can we finish what we started
Don't you leave me brokenhearted tonight'

Something covered my head. It was a thick denim jacket. I took it off my head and looked around. It was Alexander.

"Ha. Didn't expect you to be here Miss sleepy pants." He laughed then said "Sure we can finish what we started." I looked at him then I realised it must have been the song lyrics.

"Ha ha. Very funny."

"Actually Miss sleepy pants I should say that to you. You looking depressed looks cute."

"Really now? So looking depressed must be a trend nowadays."

"Ha. You're very interesting Miss sleepy pants."

"Wanna play a game?" He stood up. Then started pushing my swing.

"Sure. What is it?"

"Thanks for the push and... It's called honesty."

"Sure. I'll start. Do you like Marcello?"

"What? No. And what were you doing that night when you saw me?"

"Heading home."

"What seriously?"

"Yeah. What are you doing out here at 9pm?"

"Thinking. Where do you live ?"

"Wow personal questions now."

"Just answer it Lee."

"Oh just 'round the corner. You know the house with the trees." I tried to imagine it. Around the corner....

"Oh what time do you have to get home?"

"10pm and what door number?"

"13."

"13... No way. Are you the house opposite house number 27?"

"Oooo. Nope can't answer that it's my turn. Why did leave your house to go here?"

"Oh some stuff happened"

"Oh 'stuff'"

"Now are you the house opposite house number 27?"

"Yeah why?"

"Because... Because 27 is my house. Wait what time is it?"

"Almost 10."

"Fudge I gotta go."
