Rays POV
I have a goofy smile on my lips when I got home. And everyone was looking puzzled and curious, I went straight to the kitchen to find my Nai Nai, and when she saw me grinning from ear to ear, she smiles too.
"How was it?" She asks after I have a sit near the counter, she's preparing me a juice.
"She agrees to go out with me, but she wants to keep it a secret because of reasons she thinks that could affect her status at school." I told her.
"Did you inform her that you're not that young for her to be worried, and that her teaching in the school won't matter?" Her brow goes up a notch. I don't think she likes the idea of us being on shadows.
"I informed her that she shouldn't worry about it, but I think going out with me, "her girl student", still matters to her, it doesn't help that I will be her first girl to be in this kind of relationship with." I said while drinking the juice she made for me. "By the way Nai have you seen my shy assistant? She should have given her school records; I think she doesn't need to go through all the school stuff so we just need her to take the acceleration exams."
"I think she's mopping at her room, she gets her radar up and I think she got it bad for you. She's not happy someone's getting your attention and making you hipper."I think Nai's radar is the ones' up ringing, but I surely won't voice this out. I don't want my ears to fall off; she got crab fingers when she pinches.
"I'll just look for her, if she ever comes down and haven't seen me please inform her what I told you and that I'm looking for her." Yes the lady finds her servant. She's really cute sometimes, I'll ask dad to just adopt her, I know someone would flip out with news like that.
I go start my Dina hunt, she's really not that hard to find. And she definitely had given a good show when I found her.
I went to her room and go in without knocking, she didn't hear me coming in because she's been busy dancing and singing while wearing a bath towel. I assumed she just had a shower. She's brushing her hair while using the hair brush as a microphone. This shows that she's still a child, I can't contain my laughter and burst out loud, that's the time she turns around so fast she undid the knot on her towel. I got a glimpse of her breast or what's not there yet, she's really still a kid, she took hold of her towel and runs back to her bathroom. I'm still laughing at the situation and didn't have time to stop her from running so I just knock on the bath door. "Dina come out here, I need to talk to you about school."
"......" I think she's saying something but I can't hear her.
"Come on, I don't have time for this," I'm not angry or anything but I need to talk to my girl after this.
The door knob rotates and the door opens. And I'm fascinated on how red her skin got and low her head bows. I laugh again. And when I thought she can't get redder than she is, I was totally wronged, now I'm worried her skin won't turn back to its normal colour.
"Miss please stop laughing." She begs with her so shy voice.
I give mercy and stop myself from laughing but the grin on my face won't leave.
"Uhum," I cleared my throat, "I'm here to ask if you prepared your school records? And if you want to just take the acceleration exams and go straight to college of your choice, if you could pass the exams."
Her head lifts up and her eyes met mine. "Is that possible?"
"Of course, who do you think we are?" I joked, but really we can almost give her a diploma and school records without her even stepping on the school we are connected with, but that won't help her so she still needs to work for them. "So any college course you have in mind or do you still want to go on high school?"
"Could you give me more time to think about it?" She asked.
"Hmmm.. one week. Then if you can't decide yet, you'll be taking an exam to see what grade you should be in. I need to go now. And you don't have to worry about earlier, you still have long way to go so I didn't see anything," And with that I walk out of her room.
----
I'm in my room now, sitting comfy on my bed, legs stretch out. I texted my Lay to tell her I'm home and didn't get any reply. I wonder if she's having doubt with her decision to be with me. I wish not.
I look at my phone and think if I should just call her or not.
This relationship will surely be hard, I need to show her that we can be together and let her know me better. I know she's attracted with me but she's still not in that position to say that I could be her girl, though she has given me a chance. Urrgh, I'm at it again thinking things like these. I should prove to her I'm worthy of her, without giving her a false hopes and pretence. I'll show her who I really am.
So should I call her or not? Funny, but I don't think showing her how I am would be easy if I can't make up my mind. When she's looking I would pretend confident and at ease, but the truth is my heart keeps hammering on my chest and my hands keep on trembling when she's near.
OK, whatever, I'll just give her something tomorrow. I'm being so uncool, I'll just sleep this thoughts out.
----
And here's tomorrow. I mean today.
"Nai what do you have for my Lay?" I wake up early so I could fetch my teacher and if possible have some breakfast with her.
"The usual, I prepare both your coffees and some sandwiches. Do you want something else?" She asked smiling her usual smile for me.
"Nope, I'll ask Lay if she wants something else next time. I need to go Nai don't tell my dad what's going on, I don't want him asking when is the wedding or something like that." I turn around and found my dad smiling from ear to ear. Oh, come on.
"So when do we meet her?" He asks.
"Not this soon and don't ask too many questions." I kiss him on the cheek and went jogging out of the kitchen, just to find the other servants eavesdropping on us. The other members of the Smith family are present and have teasing smiles plastered on their lips. What a morning. I see Dina on the side having a dark look.
"Young master I'll just go get your car." Thomas said.
I just nod and ignore the teasing looks they give me. I went out and wait for the car.
"Early bird catches the worm, go and fetch your girlfriend." Thomas said after opening the car door for me.
I give him a toothy grin and go fetch my Lay.
