Chapter 9

Nate

Damn it! What are they both doing at the balcony? It’s already 3.00 am and they have been talking and laughing for hours. Damn! I don’t know who I’m angry with, her or Neill. Damn!

Neil had told me about his feeling towards Shy. Yeah, he told me that he love Shy like his elder sister but I still can’t help feeling jealous right now. She could laugh and laugh for hours with Neil and if it’s me she would glared. Even just now when Neil told her she looked sexy in her soaking wet shirt she just laughed it off. If I were the one who said it she would glared and rolled her eyes. Damn! I really feel like kissing her to her senses at times. Doesn’t she ever realize that she’s killing me with jealousy whenever I saw her with Neil like that? Why can’t she treat me that way? Damn!

They finally came in and still laughing about something. I pretending to be sleeping and covered my face with a small cushion.

“Look like everyone has gone to sleep,” I heard Neil told Shy.

“Yeah, I’m off to bed too,” Shy told him, “Goodnight,” I could imagine she’s kissing Neil cheek. Urg!

“Don’t pretend to be a sleep, Nate,” said Neil pulling the cushion off my face and hit me.

“Hey!” I scolded him and grabbed the cushion from him, “I’ve already a sleep.”

“Yeah, right,” chuckle Neil getting ready to go to sleep.

I looked at him, “What were both of you doing and talking till 3.00 am?” I asked. “You still have tomorrow, you know?” I smirked.

“We talked about a lot of things,” he smirked. “You are part of our subject,” there’s an amusement in his voice. He switch off the lights covered his face with a small cushion.

I pulled the cushion away from him, “What were you discussing about me?” I curiously asked.

“Not telling you,” he chuckled and covered back his face.

“Neil!” I yelled pulling the cushion off his again and playfully hit him, “I’m asking you!”

He laughed, “Don’t worry. We’re not talking bad things about you, ok? Just go to sleep,” grabbing the cushion from me.

“Did she say something about me?” I asked again.

“Yeah, she did,” he chuckled again. “Go to sleep,” he instructed.

“Did she still hate me?” I queried.

“No, she didn’t,” he stressed, “Go to sleep Nate,” he desperately instructed me again.

“Did she say she likes me?” I grilled.

“No, she didn’t,” he annoyingly replied, “You irritates her, just like you doing to me right now!” he fumed. “Just go to sleep Nate. At least you know she didn’t hate you anymore,” he turned his back towards me, “Don’t worry, I’ll keep you updated if anything. Goodnight!”

I sighed, “Goodnight,” and lie down facing the ceiling. Yeah, Neil right, at least she didn’t hate me anymore, but I’m going to make her love me. Yeah, one day she will.

I woke up the next morning upon hearing sound of laughter from the kitchen. I looked at my right and saw Neil still snoring away. I looked at my watch it’s already 8.00 am. It must be my parent in there eating breakfast. I’ve got up and walked to the kitchen. Shy had actually joined them. She was standing at the stove cooking breakfast.
