Love me dearly

"Loving you.."

ASTRID'S POV

"Get down here!"

Oh, please Mom. I think that's the sixth time she shouted that line. But I'm having a perfect relationship with my pillows.

"Astrid! This is the last time that I'm gonna call you!" She shouted again.

I don't know, but I just want to stay in my bed all day. I've been up since six and it's now eleven in the morning. I didn't run today because I'm feeling something on my body. Oh geez!

So I went down, even if it's against my body. I saw my Mom, cooking our lunch. Well, she's in a good mood, so why is she shouting like that to me again?

"Who's that for?" She almost jump as soon as I asked her.

"What?"

"Those foods, that's a lot Mom." Are we going to celebrate any feast today? Well she just ignored me and continue with her cooking. That's rude.

I walk back to my room and decided to take a shower and singing inside the shower is my thing too.

"The colors that you bring
Stay with me while we grow old
And we will live each day in springtime
Lovin' you has made my life so beautiful
And every day of my life
Is filled with lovin' —"

*skype beep*

I am enjoying my shower, damn it.

I quickly wrap the bath towel on my body and hastily wipe my right hand on it. This isn't the right time for this call. My gosh!

"Yeah?"

"Why aren't you replying to my messages?" Can't he get it?

"Am I not clear with you last night?" I rolled my eyes, asking myself why did I answer the call again.

"You said that we will be talking today. It's past 12 now Astrid."

"Oh please Iñigo, we both know that I didn't say that.. you.. said it." If I can just go to where he is then punch him, I will.

"I already said I'm sorry, what else do I need to do?"

Iñigo? A long distance boyfriend. He needs to stay abroad for two months, for his on the job training. Thank God that I'm finish with that thing.

"Let's put it this way, if you see me kissing another guy, will it be fine to you?" He shakes his head, then look at me sadly.

"Then understand me, please do understand that I'm mad at you." I cut the call and throw my phone back to my bed. Oh Iñigo! I thought you're not like the others.

We've been together for half a year now, still new. He is an ideal guy, believe me. But of course, nobody's perfect, so he have some lapses.

I continue with my shower then dry myself off then put on my shorts and tank top. I decided to go down knowing that it's lunch time and nobody's calling for lunch.

I'm hearing voices, unfamiliar and familiar ones. I saw my three aunties, cousins and I think some of my mom's friends.

"Hey Astrid. Look at you.." Aunt Tina kiss me on my cheek then hug me.

"Look at you, you look so good huh." I answered back.

"Seriously sweetie, you really look so fine. Still on your diet huh?" I sheepishly nod my head then smile at her.

I continue talking to my aunt then my other aunt cut our talk then I move to my cousin, whom I considered as my best friend.

"Who's that guy?" Erika whispered beside me. I look where she is looking and I saw the guy. A guy, whom I really don't know and haven't met before.

"I don't know. Why?"

"Why? Really Astrid? Are you sure that you're looking at the guy that I am looking at?"

So I look again to the guy but this time, I really look at him. I don't know how long I've been looking at him until Erika talked again.

"So?"

"So what?"

"Astrid, I know you. He's your type."

My type? I don't have a type. I just want my guy to look presentable at all times and has a lot of sense of humor.

I didn't answer Erika. I just sit beside her while she keeps on talking about that guy. She keeps on talking and talking and talking until my mom walk towards our seat.

"Astrid, Erika, this is Mr. Gutierrez." My mom introduced the guy whom I think is the father of the guy that me and Erika were talking about.

"Hi Mr. Gutierrez." I offered a shake hand and he accepted it. While Erika is still focus with the man beside him.

"And this is his son, Andrew."

Andrew smiled at us, actually smiled at me. He's looking at me like he knows me and I'm just looking at him, restless, wondering if I met him before.
