My Virtual Boyfriend

CHAPTER 26

JACOB'S POV

I am so happy after a long drive to the ice cream parlour. I observe how beautifully Aedelle hop out of Drake's car with grace, confidence and with intimadating presence.

Following behind her is ofcourse Drake whom I know is Aedon's and her close friend. His lips was pressed in a grim line and I almost choke when he saw me observing him. So to turn things nice I gave him a friendly smile and he just nodded.

As we entered the shop, Aedelle have already chosen a good for three table and made herself comfortable.

"I'll order. Any demand of flavors?" The guy named Drake asked.

"No bro let me do it instead." I said as I stood up and look at Aedelle.

"So Aedelle is it the usual mocha with chocolate chips?" I asked her.

Her face lit up with happiness as she nodded continuously.

I winked at her before turning to Drake.

"So Dude what about you?"

But I didn't receive any response. His eyes were outside and his facial expression shouts "i dont care"

"Buy strawberry ice cream for him." Aedelle mentioned while glaring at Drake.

"I don't like strawberry." The guy simply replied.

I just raised my thick eyebrows at the current scene.

Aedelle on the other hand suddenly stood up violently as she pointed at Drake who is sitting comfortably with his arms crossed on his chest.

"What's wrong with you! The last time that I bought you ice cream it is strawberry flavor and you just dunked your oreo cookies on it! You said it was your favorite!" she said emphasizing every words.

Drake shrugged and I just excused myself so that I can order already. Before I left, I heard Drake uttered.

"I just dont like it anymore. I'm leaving."

"You,- you"

That was all I heard before I ordered a special serve of mocha ice cream, chocolate for me and some cookies for Aedelle. The cashier handed me my orders and I made my way back to where Aedelle is.

And there I saw her. Alone. Eyes welling with tears. Nose puffed.

With large steps, I reached our table and saw no one on Drake's chair.

"Hey what happened?" I asked as I handed her a table napkin.

"He left" she simply replied.

"And why are you crying?" I asked before continuing. "I can give you a ride home if that's what you are worrying about. Just tell me what's wrong Aedelle." I said slowly on her ears.

She sniffed before her wet eyes found mine. She's very special to me in a very specific way. I dont want to see her crying.

"I felt dumped." And now she cried on my chest pulling and crutching my light blue long sleeves polo.

As a concerned one, I hugged her back as I trace soothing circles on her back. Drake must be very special to her. She never cried like this before.

Suddenly her breathing stabilized and I can't feel her crutching my polo anymore so I lossened up and a silly smile escaped my lips as I saw her already snoring with traces of dry tears on her cheeks.

I look at the ice creams I ordered dismissively before carrying her outside to where my car is parked.

She's so small and slender and she's so light. I placed her on the backseat and made sure that she's protected with seat belt.

I drived all the way to her flats. Since it was secured with a private digits, I called Aedon instead.

After few rings, he answered.

"Yes Jacob Williams what is it that I can do for you?" he asked right away.

"What's your room number?"

"No way! Don't go here!"

"Why? I have Aedelle." I replied.

"Don't use my twin as a key to get into me you gay." he accused.

"I literally have Aedelle here and I have no sexual intentions toward you if that's what you think. She's sleeping and her flats is secured." I explained.

"Room 392. Fourth Floor." he answered.

I sighed. Yes, I need to go down again in the elevator while carrying Aedelle.

I don't mind anyway.

I clicked on the button for 4th floor. I saw a man, maybe a janitor on the same cage with us. He just look at the sleeping Aedelle who snuggled closer into my chest.

I reached the fourth floor and Aedon is already waiting outside his room.

"I thought Drake's with her." he said before leading the way to his flats.

"He left her and she cried." I said honestly.

"She cried?"

"Yeah. She said she felt dumped. Then after few minutes she turned sleeping beauty."

Aedon chuckled and motioned me to put Aedelle on his King sized bed. I covered her with a blanket and she sighed peacefully.

"Thank you for bringing her safely Dude. Maybe I could do something to punish Drake." he said.

"What are they anyway?" I asked curiously.

"Not my story to tell. I'm sorry Jacob."

"Aw no problem with that. Why are you going to give that guy a punishment?" I questioned.

"I warned him not to make Aedelle cry. Now he's going to pay for it." he smirked.

I eyed him curiously. "What are you planning to do?"

He grabbed his phone from his jeans pocket before dialling some digits. He set it in loudspeaker and I saw Drake's name on it.

The call was anwered.

"What do you need Aedon?" he asked from the other line.

"I thought you are going to drive Di home?" Aedon asked while motioning me to listen and keep quiet.

"She's with her friend."

"Ah. Yeah Jacob drive her home and she's drunk. Actually they are on her room right now. Maybe attending her while she's not on her normal state. And maybe doing some,-"

Aedon wasn't able to finish his sentence when we both heard a loud banging sound before the call ended.

"Hey she's not drunk Aedon."

"Yes she's not. But it will probably make Drake regret leaving her. Now help me set up some cool audios in her room for a better effect." he said as he tapped my shoulder grinning so wide.

I just have this feeling that this will not turn out good. But I oblinged.
