Rendezvous

Chapter 18

My eyes fluttered open. I take in the surroundings around me. Still the same. I am inside my condo. Nothing has changed.

I look over my digital clock beside me.

It is 2:30 am. Wow. I remember going home from uni, and this cute tall green eyed guy dropping me off. What was his name again? And why on earth at that time, is he dropping me off? What did I do?

He is my classmate in 3 subjects. And he was kind enough to accompany home since I didn't bring my car with me and heck, it was raining. Hard.

I was so exhausted yesterday because of all the quizzes I had, my energy got drained, well thank God for today since it is Saturday.

I had a long nap. So long that I managed to dream about that guy. And funny enough that I dreamt of him being the son of the president. That I've known him since high school and I spent my summer vacation before entering college together.

Odd. Odd dream.

Not to mention the part that was cut off because I woke up too soon.

I feel my cheeks heat up. Oh my god, Liv. You are definitely crushing on that boy.

Oh gosh. Maybe I am. It's been so long since I had my "crush," it feels so weird now.

I heard my stomach growl.

Goodness me. I forgot to eat my dinner. I overslept so much!

I miss my mom and my dad. I often times I have these moments, except it's around midnight. Those countless times that I would go down and head to the fridge to grab some snack.

Heck, I would even cook my own food if I have to.

I check the time again, it's now 3 am.

Ah! It is too early. And I just moved in, I don't have much inside my fridge. I made a mental note, that I must go grocery shopping.

Maybe something would magically appear beside me! A nice chicken sandwich. No. Not possible.

"Alright, that's it. I'm going to the convenience store downstairs."

I stand up. And assess myself. Still in my clothes yesterday of course. Cringe.

I quickly searched for my denim pants and white v neck t- shirt. Then finally flip flops.

Gargled some mouthwash that my mom packed for me. Gosh. I miss them so much.

Just few floors down. Right?

Olivia, you are on the top floor of this building.

Elevators are a thing! I scolded that pessimistic head of mine.

I grab my wallet. My phone and my keys. I made sure that everything is locked before heading towards the elevator.

Silence

A beautiful sound. There are no people around. Most likely, they are all sleeping. I should be sleeping too, but I am so hungry, that I really must go eat.

The things I do for food.

Sighing, I felt someone elses presence beside me. The rhythm of that person's breathing matches mine. I decided not to look on that said direction.

"Hey! You are Olivia, right?" I heard someone speak beside me.

He sounded like a guy. And his voice is familiar. Oh gosh. I have to interact with a human being this early, and I'm hungry too.

"Yeah. Hi. Morning to you." I said. Not really facing him yet.

Ding

Both of us entered the elevator. And both of us are heading on the ground floor. He is probably also going out. To the gym? I don't know and I don't really care.
