Paulo Coelho

Richard's POV

"You really need to stop doing that Leonardo," Julia bent over from laughing.

I chuckle at the three people in front of me. Dove and Leo as it is, are enjoying the company of Julia. They decided to do Indian dance as an extra practice for Dove.

Leo looks absolutely cute doing that, shaking his invisible butt.

"Nope," Leo responded, popping the 'p'. He has a funny face. He is apparently trying hard to get the dance.

I can't believe that the same dance Julia and Dove made into a perfect eyesight is the same dance Leo turned into a perfect catastrophe.

Great.

It went on like that.

They did few more dances and they are way too childish- as in the case of Dove and Leo.

However, Julia stands in between them, laughing at how childish the two of them are.

If it were to be Dove who had taught him how to do the Indian dance, I'm sure he wouldn't try it out anymore except that once. But, since it is Julia, he has grown more fond of her in the past few days.

After that great announcement last week about the anniversary being postponed, we kind of steadied things and move at a slow but productive pace.

Julia and I have been taking our time. Pretty much as happened in the past weeks.

A little secret here, I kinda stole her number that day of the announcement when Becky and Chloe pulled her out of class. She left her phone, so it happened that I had to take the phone. The funny thing is, I manage to put it in her bag when she wasn't looking, in the hallway.

Though, since then, I haven't contact her. I might do that today.

What y'all think. I can't believe we spent several weeks together without a proper phone conversation.

She came over on the days we separated and we've achieved quite a lot if not all.

Miss Wren is as happy as always. She's helping out with other necessary things.

Back to us.

Dove and Leo like Julia a lot and they keep looking forward to when she's coming around.

They are extra inquisitive these days. Thanks to Julia.

The days went by quite excitingly.

Things are getting better and better all the way except for those few calls I get from my prodigal father.

Or those calls and messages I keep getting from my prodigal father's secretary. I'm starting to think he's also prodigal, since his calls are even becoming much more desperate than my prodigal father's.

Not to leave out Freddie's constant calls too. On the same issue.

No, I am seriously not talking about this now.

Where was I?

Yeah.

Julia talks more, laughs more, gets more feisty and friendly.

Actually, she's friendly and it is just overwhelming that she's trying not to be too nervous around me.

It's another day to work some more and we are here in the living room laughing. It's not my fault, since these two kids decided to interrupt and distract us. We let them actually.
