"And who was that at the door?" Smiled my mum, tying her apron around her waist.

"Oh," I cough. "Darcy."

"Darcy!" She claps then frowns. "What did you do to her that makes her so frightened?"

"Honestly, I don't think she is frightened." A laugh slips. "More curiosity if you ask me." With that, I began to head back to my room but halt by the shout of my name.

"Do you like her," She gulps. "Harry?"

"Have you heard of the old sayings of, 'when good meets bad'?" I ask and she nods. "I told her I was bad and she is the good. I am yet not interested to share my life to anyone but Melanie."

"Melanie is-"

"I know." I stop her before she says no more. "I can still feel her near."

"Honey," My mum came forward but I stop her.

"I don't want to talk about it." She sighs and nods. "How is your speech going along for your English class? Are you actually going to talk to the students?"

"I hate my professor so much. Nonetheless, I need to speak to the students." My mother groans since she was clearly on my side.

       Honestly, I don't like to talk to anyone really. Other than the elders but the rest I shall say no peep.

"Alone again?" Jason's raspy voice called when he walked towards me as I fixed the kids section.

"You again?" Inside I was afraid to be near him because the vibe wasn't so comforting.

"Ouch." Jason playfully winces and throws his hand around my shoulder.

"Jason stop." I sighed and next thing I know the cold hard wall was pressed against my back while his hands trapped me, putting them at both sides of my head.

      My eyes gaze up to his, which in fact weren't so sexual. His lips curve to a nice smile; a smile I was almost afraid why he did such nice gesture.

"Do I frighten you?" Just what Harry said last night. He lowered his face. Lips almost above mine. "Am I your type?"

"I need to work." I scoff and tried to push myself off. He only lent in closer. "Jason, why are you getting too close to my face."

I retort more than a question.

       He chuckles, looks down then back to me. He pressed himself closer to the point where we were chest to chest.

"Let me take you out." He whispers. "I'll treat you well, really well. I promise."

"How could I be so sure?"

"Because it will be in a public place. Where I give my number to your mother and address to where I plan to take you. Not far but somewhere here. Go to dinner with me, Darcy." Jason sets his forehead to mine.

"Harry said you are bad and to not talk to you." I tell him but he laughs showing no care.

"You and Harry?" He laughs again with his raspy New York accent. "I don't like it." He growls. "I'll take you to dinner."

"Never." I force him out of my contact.

        After a few hours, time ticked until my shift ended for the day. Avoided Jason the whole day, Jabby told me about the party last night on 'what I missed out on' and what not. Harry, didn't see him at all. Despite the morning where he was being a bit different with me.

"Darcy!" The recognition Amanda's voice chirped.

"Amanda." I wave. "That Co-Worker didn't come." Knowing, she would ask.

"Aww!" She pouts. "Have you told him?"

"Tell him what?" My mind was in the clouds until it landed a little plant called, Earth. "----Oh! He is being difficult right now. Amanda he isn't very nice."

"Oh, I get it." Said Amanda.

"Harry isn't so friendly." I tell her more.

"No, I get it." She repeats then crosses her arms. "You like him too."

"What? No!"

"Yes you do!" She points and sighs. "Mind if I get him first?"

"Do as you please Amanda. I do not like That Co-Worker." I stomp and turn around.

       The christmas choir music was on the radio and couldn't help but to sing out to O Holy Night by the King College from Cambridge. It was just a alluring sound. My voice was rather breathy but sang anyways, I love choir.

        Coming from work, at four in the afternoon, I pull up lightly singing. It was cold in Chicago and shivered while I walked down to my front door.

        To my surprise, when I walked inside, church music was blasting. I closed my door from behind me and walked in further to see a familiar face.

"Julia!" My sister, my beautiful older sister has come and with a boy. "It's been so long! Did you come for the Holiday?"

"I missed you guys so much. You should of seen me when I saw mom and Drew. I BALD. Also, yes! For Thanksgiving." My older sister laughed and hugged me. My little family is back together.

"And this is?" I acknowledge this boy or should I say man she brought home with.

"Conner." She looks up at him very in love. "Met him in the Uni back in Iowa."

"Nice to meet you Conner, I am-"

"Darcy." He finished for me. "Julia told me about everyone. Since she is my girlfriend."

"Did she really? Julia's first boyfriend!" I was proud of her because she was like me as well. No experience with no boy and now she looks in love.

"That's what makes her so special." Said Conner smiling up at her direction.

        My mother and Drew walked in hand in hand. They were smiling and again, my mother never looked so gleeful.

       It made me feel left out on love. Not that I was rushing, but I want meet the certain well-educated man who will make me happy like how my mother and older sister seem to be.

A good charming man.
