I was on my bed, wide awake staring at the ceiling, listening to the tick-tock of the clock watching hours pass. Why did he kiss me? Who was that red Lady? I couldn't come up with any answers to these questions. Why does my mind freeze in his presence? I stood in a sitting position when I remembered his words before the kiss. I quickly took my phone to translate those words. My thumbs were dancing in front of the screen. "Crap! What were those words?" I almost shout ignoring the peaceful sleep of Adam. I looked down at him. My cute little brother. Kissed his cheek and laid beside him. 

Adam! Did he see me? I have to ask him, but how? What should I ask. 'Did you watch your sisters' first kiss?' 'Oh! Yes, I did'. My imaginary friends replied as Adam. 'Blast! Blast! Blast!' How can I be so careless?

I got off my bed and started walking with the phone in my hand, turning it between my fingers and thumb. Think Levy! Remember those words. I kept on walking without bothering about the time. My trail of thought was cut by the ringtone of my phone. Giving me a mini heart attack, when I saw the caller ID, brother. Should I receive the call or not? For sure he got some news about us. I gulped hard whilst thinking of his questions. Ringing cuts off after some seconds. I sighed heavily and sat at the end of the bed. My phone rang again, I quickly received it, Adam was about to awake.

"H-hello." keep calm Levy.

"Hello." His voice was hard, making hello sounds like a question.
"Where were you?" He asked.

"I- I, I mean we. Yes, Adam and I were out. Out for some fun. Yes." I don't know what to say.

"What's the time Levy?" He asked sternly.

I glanced at the clock, it reads 2:30 AM.

"We're back an hour ago." His information was building up nervousness in me.

"Next time you people will not be out at these hours." He warned me.
"Yes, as you say." I blather the words in antsiness.

Will he ask about it?

He then hung off the phone with a good night. He didn't mention anything about it. He doesn't know where we're. He only knows we're out. Yes! Thank God!

I laid again watching time passed, an hour after an hour. It's 5 AM in the morning and I am still awake.

I went to the terrace watching the sunrise. Where birds were singing songs with their chirping voice. The sky turned bright, scattering the pink-white light. It was a beautiful morning with warm sun rays and cold breeze.

After having a little walk, I prepared breakfast and began to eat. I was hungry being awake the whole night. Later, Lady Anna and Adam woke up.

On our way towards Adams' school, I thought of asking Adam about the last night and prepared a lot of sentences in my mind before asking. Then finally made an attempt.

"Adam?"

He turned to face me, breaking his view from the window.

"What?"

"Did you. No, I mean. Did you see me leaving the table last night?"
I mentally punched myself, of course, he did. I was sitting exactly in front of him.

"You mean while having dinner?" He asked.

"Yes."

"I saw you leaving, you walk passed by my side." He said.

"And?" I want to know more than that.

"And what?" He questioned my question.

"And after that, what did you see Adam?"
