"A good relationship worth the wait."

Rue's POV

"Honey, can you please stop staring at your phone like it will give you money this instant. Are you arguing with Zayden?" Aunt Esme voices her concern for the second time today.


"No aunty. We are not arguing. Last time i checked, Zayden and i trying to pull a prank on each other so we are okay." I said in monotone then turn around to lay down on my stomach on the couch.


"Then, why are you moping around? Don't you think i don't noticed how you keep staring at your phone twenty-four seven and keep checking it every damn five minutes." Aunt Esme huff while rubbing her temple.


I was about to answer her but the door bell rings making her scrambled away to open the door.


"Hey bub, how are you feeling? Your aunt called me, said there is something unusual about your behaviour. Should i be concern?" I glanced to my left just to see Zayden squatting next to my head.


"I'm fine. Why are you here?" I replied after turning my head back.


"Are you sure? Is your stomach bug back? Is that why you are laying on your stomach? You want me to rub it better?" Zayden fire me with tons of question making my head hurt.


This is one reason why i never want to make Zayden worry. He will go to momma mood in a second.


"Aunty! Why is Zayden here?" I lifted my head then plopped it back down.


"She is concern about you, you know." Zayden answer just in time my aunt said "because i'm worried about you."


"Can you sit up for me?" Zayden asked. I slowly sit down and scoot away to make a place for him to sit. "Here" he said while patting his thigh, wanting me to lay there. Which i do.


"Okay, now tell me. What's wrong?" Zayden asked lightly and start running his hand through my hair.


"It's been a week and Cade haven't send me a single text or call me. I keep waiting for an unknown number just to ring up my phone. But none! I'm seriously start to lose hope. I knew this is just a game for him. Gosh, he must be thinking how easy i am giving away my phone number. What am i going to do Zay?" I confessed all i'm feeling that been bugging me all week.


"No wonder you look so upset. Don't be sad bub. If he really want to get to know you like he said then he should make some effort. If he is so nervous to text you, a whole week is a damn long time he need. Go change your clothes. I'm gonna take you out to clear up your mind." Zayden said making me silently nodded then heading up to my room.

"Okay, last one. Why did the banana fail his driving test?" Zayden asked while grinning like an idiot.
