I was sitting at the terrace of our house, trying to learn how to play a guitar my dad bought me for Christmas.
"Hey.." suddenly an unfamiliar voice called out. A young blonde handsome man, about my age, standing outside my house wearing a white sando, a maong shorts and his flipflop, caring a big baggage looking at me.
"Trying to learn huh?" He bow his haid as he chuckle, making me feel embarrassed.
Is my skills that bad? He obviously know I am still trying to learn.
I was about to say a word when my dad suddenly interrupted, "You're Cody?" He asked.
"Yeah" The young man answered and my dad opened the door for him.
Wait.Why? Who's this guy? Oh I remember! My dad said that his business partners' Son will be staying at our house while they go on a buisness trip.
So this is his son...
"This is my Daughter" my dad said while he leads Cody in to our house. "Alex, let him know his room I will be going." He grabbed his things and leave.
"Wait..!" I tried to call my dad but he's already on his car driving his way to his office.
"So where will I be staying?" He interrupted while I was busy watching my dad drive away.
I lead him upstairs where our rooms are across to each other, "This is yours, and this is mine. Don't ever get it wrong, ok? " I said, making everything clear. "and that's the bathroom" I pointed at the end of the corridor where leads at the bathroom door.
"Got it." He just smiled and get inside his room. He start unpacking his things and I get down, grab my guitar, and try to learn again.
An Unpleasant tone from my guitar disturbs the silent of our house. It was loud and noisy. Am I even doing the right thing??
Cody was listenig, leaning on the door laughing from my terrible guitar skill. "That's not bad.." He said making me feel a little better.
I blushed a little I think..and look away "mind your own business" I said, then continue to play.
I didn't realize he's walking this way, he sat beside me and grab my guitar, "let me" he smiled and begin to strum.
Wow he's good. He continue to play and I didn't reaize I was staring, he suddenly stop and said "want me to teach you?" he kindly suggest. Well he's good and I'm desperate so I say "Yes."
He gave me the guitar and wrapped his arm around me so he can teach me how to do it properly. I can smell his perfume, an ocean like scent which suit his style.
"Do you get it?" He asked. Looking at him, our face seemed too close. I looked away and he stand away. My heart pound a little faster for a moment there.
"I'll go get something to drink" I suggest while I go to the kitchen and cool my self.
As I was going back at the terrace, I can hear Cody playing. His soft strum at the guitar string make it sounds better, he's humming a tone but he's not singing.
"What took you so long?" He asked when he saw me approaching.
"What are you playing?" I asked him back.
"A song I wrote." He grab a bottle of water and have a gulp.
"That sounds great" I replied trying not to kill our conversation. "Let me hear it." I added.
"It's not yet done." He smiled and placed the guitar down.
He make his way inside the house and sit on the couch, looks like he's finding the remote so I grabbed where it is placed and throw it to him.
"Thanks" He oppened the TV and I sat beside him.
"So where you from?" He looked at me but didn't answer..I continue to ask him questions, but he never answered.
Hello Im trying to make a conversation here.
He then suddenly stand up "I'll take a rest." he said as he make his way to his room.
Maybe I irritate him.
I was left downstairs alone.Time pass by and I saw his phone on the couch so I bring it to his room.
"Cody.." I knocked as I call him out. It takes time until he openned the door. "Your phone" I stretch my hand giving him his phone.
"Thanks sweet angel" He gave me a soft kiss on my cheek to show his thank.
oh he called me an angel? not just an angel, but sweet angel!
"It's cute you blushed" He laughed as he saw my red cheek. I cover it with my hands , I feel embarrassed and turn away.
He grabbed my hand as I was about to walk away, he pulled me closer to his chest.
I can feel his heart beat.
"can you stay beside me?" It was a soft and lonely voice.
