Chapter 6 - What? You..

CHAPTER 6

When me and Harry eventually reach the ‘crowd’, they look at us with an obvious questioning look. Harry seems to see the awkward situation too, and he laughs in an attempt to melt such a tensed condition. The management team looks at me with a sorry look. They approach me and apologize, ‘’We’re sorry, we can make sure that the boys will not act silly again.’’

I smile. ‘’Yeah, I’m sorry too for getting mad that fast.’’

They throw some apologies once again before finally I do the final shoots for the boys. Harry’s mates keep whispering something to Harry, I bet they wonder how Harry could manage to bring me back. Harry just smirks in response and I know that he’s keeping what happened as a secret.

Time flies so fast until we finally finish everything. We tidy things up and talk shortly to the management before finally the taxi picks us up to the hotel again. I wonder why the boys aren’t trying to talk to me, or at least to know my name. They keep on looking at me awkwardly, except Harry of course. Probably they’re too scared to me, how embarrassing.

Olivia keeps on looking at her phone all our way back to the hotel. Being curious, I ask her what’s the very serious matter. She smiles broadly and giggles like crazy.

‘’I’m looking at the photos of me with One Direction! Seriously Lun,this is such a dream. I can’t believe they’re too kind, I took like thousands of pictures and also selfies with them!’’

I sigh, talking sarcastically. ‘’I’m happy for you too.’’

‘’I know you’re not.’’ Olivia half speaks. I know she hoped that I wouldn’t hear that but the fact was, I did. I heard that. Olivia seems to realize everything, and she continues to talk to me. ‘’Why didn’t you take pictures with them too?’’

I roll my eyes and say, ‘’Taking pictures with them? I’m nothing interested with that, sorry.’’ Olivia shrugs and says, ‘’Oh, that’s too bad. The boys wanted to know about you so bad, especially Harry. They kept on asking me stuffs about you. And when I mentioned your name, well your full name, Louis dropped his jaw and remained silent, even until now probably.’’

I choke once Olivia mentions the Louis’ stuffs. His jaw dropped once he heard my name? Olivia must be joking. I try my best to laugh and Olivia frowns.

‘’What’s so funny? And may I ask you something?’’

I look at her and ask, ‘’What?’’

‘’What did Harry say or do to you until you wanted to come back? Usually you’re being all stubborn, no offense.’’ Olivia says, reassuring that she’s been careful in using her words. The flashbacks of me and Harry kissing roughly pops out of my head. Damn it, brain. I should think about anything else as an excuse.

‘’Hmm, Harry insisted that I should go,’’ I lie. ‘’It’s not a very big deal.’’

Olivia relieves. ‘’Oh.’’

We stay silent until we arrive our hotel. Once we arrive at our room we change clothes to the night ones and Oivia lays straight on her bed. I myself haven’t chilled on the bed yet. I should prepare my another best clothes for tomorrow. I don’t want to be busy at the morning since I’ll be so tired.

‘’What are you doing there, Lun? Why preparing formal clothes?’’

I frown. ‘’Tomorrow there will be another photoshoot right? Probably in the morning? Or at midnight again?’’

Olivia laughs. ‘’My bad, I haven’t told you that actually the photoshoot is done, the rest of our days here will be used for our holiday. Mr. Fred gives us a free two-day holiday in New York, so that we will be free tomorrow.’’

I sigh, ‘’That’s a good thing, but it will be better if you tell me earlier so that I won’t have to bring this many amount of formal clothes.’’

Olivia apologizes. ‘’Oh, sorry. I didn’t mean it. Mr. Fred just sent me a message about that two hours ago, so blame him if you can.’’ I laugh and throw those ‘formal’ clothes back to my backpack aimlessly. They’re useless now.

I eventually crawl to Olivia’s bed and talk with her the all night long. Probably I should change my prospective to her. Actually she’s being all nice all the time, it’s only me that keeps on being judgemental in every acts she does.

‘’Oh, never have I met a rude yet temperamental British girl like you.’’

Those words pop right to my head as I talk to Olivia. Probably Harry is right. I’m rude, I’m temperamental, after all I’m not a good British girl. I try to forget Harry and Harry’s words but I just can’t. He’s a really spontaneous person and he just blurts out everything that comes right onto his mind. He wasn’t afraid to say that I was a ‘square’ person and that I was very temperamental and so on. Never have people ever said these things towards me. Harry was the first one to say those things to me, and now I’m all left stunned.

I keep trying to forget Harry as me and Olivia’s conversation keeps going on. We both agree to go to Statue of Liberty and Museum of Modern Art tomorrow before finally going to Madison Square Garden for the last day. We both whisper each other ‘goodnight’ and go straight to sleep. I’m too tired to stay up all night.

‘’Luna, wake up! I say, wake up Luna!’’I feel somebody shaking my body harshly and speaking those words. It’s Olivia, absolutely. I groan and shriek, ‘’Come on Olivia I’m still so sleepy and it’s our day off so-‘’

‘’Save your words, somebody is waiting for you outside!’’

I frown, still not opening my eyes. Nothing interested, I utter. ‘’Who?’’

‘’Harry.’’

‘’What?’’ I say, sitting on the bed and waking up at one second.
