Heartbeat

CHAPTER 12

June's POV:

                            Whenever my eyes shut down he is the one I see. He is the only one my mind has been constantly thinking about. I  tried very hard to sleep but I can't sleep.

God, why I'm thinking about that bad boy?

I took my phone and dialed Kenneth's number.
"Hey Ken," I said on the line
"Hi, June, what's up?" Kenneth replied.
"Can't sleep man, I'm bored," I said with a dull voice.
"Oh, had uncle arrived from Japan?" He asked and waited for my reply.
"Nope" I replied.
"You are not sleeping?" I asked 
"Nah" he replied and I rolled my eyes.
"Hey, can you come to my home?" I asked cheerfully and I can say he is smiling.
"Okay, will be there in ten minutes," he said and hang up.

Kenneth came to my home and we started thinking about the ways to enjoy. I told so many ideas but  Kenneth didn't like them at all. Finally, Kenneth suggested an idea that's best of all and we decided to go for it.

Kenneth bought dustbin bags. I got dressed in a full white color frock and applied loads of powder as well as makeup to my face and left my hair free.
"You really are looking like a ghost." He complimented and I felt proud of my work.

I and Kenneth started walking towards our neighbor houses. When we reached the front yard of a house, Kenneth filled a dustbin bag with water and made it leaned against the door.
Kenneth gave me thumbs up, I positioned myself behind a bush to hide. Kenneth pressed the doorbell about five times and ran to the nearby bush in the garden to hide.

            My neighbor Mrs. John opened the door with sleepy eyes and the bag we leaned against the door spilled water into her house.

"What the hell?" She shouted watching the water and searched the front yard for the criminal, her eyes landed on the bush I'm hiding and she began shouting.
"Who is that, hiding there? Come out." She barked and I started making different kinds of sounds loudly.
"Hizmiahizmka Columbia abraksbidma" I shouted without knowing the words I had used.

She frightened by hearing my loud booming voice and this time she whispered slowly.
"Who are you? Why are you hiding?" She whispered.
  
I came out of my hiding place and began walking slowly towards her like a devil in the movies.
Mrs. John shocked and her face became pale, I controlled myself from bursting into laughter in front of her.

"Whoo, aaa are you?" She stammered.
"I want you dead, I will kill you and enjoy drinking your blood, Hahahaaaaa....." I laughed hard by making my eyes large.
"Come on, Come on. I'm hungry for blood." I shouted at her.

Mrs. John started shaking and shouting at a time and ran into her house. As soon as she turned around we ran out of her house.

"That was hilarious," Kenneth said between his laughs and I'm not in a state to reply because I'm laughing so hard that my eyes got wet.
"God, Did you watch her face? She looks like she is going to pee." I replied and started laughing hard along with Kenneth.

We went to another three houses and the reaction we got is the same as the first and even more terrified. Everyone believed so easily that I'm a devil. Kenneth and I laughed very hard for their expressions. After a while, we got exhausted and stopped our
mission. After that, we went to my home.

"Catch it," I shouted at Kenneth to catch the bottle, who is currently resting on my bed.
I landed beside Kenneth and made my self-comfort. Kenneth didn't speak for a while and I thought that he was sleeping but I'm wrong.

"June" he called my name.
"Hmm?" I replied with a deep sigh.
"What do you think about Annie?" His question made me raise my eyebrow at him.
"Why are you asking about her?"I waited for his reply eagerly.
" I think.."He paused his sentence and I can guess what he is about to say.
"You think that you like her right?" I completed his sentence with a smile and he nodded his head.
"Sorry June, I didn't say this before because you had been upset these past days. And I'm also not clear about my thoughts." He informed me of nervously.
"Don't be stupid Ken, I know you are hiding something from me but I waited this long to open up by yourself and I'm here for you anytime OK?" I said, he ruffled my hair in a lovely manner which results in rolling my eyes.
"When are to going to ask her for a date?" I questioned him.
"Don't know, I don't think she will accept to go out with me." Kenneth sighed heavily.
"Of course, she will accept Ken. How can she ignore such a  handsome boy like you." I encouraged him with a smile.
"Maybe she likes David?" He stated and I thought for a second.
"Nope, I think they are friends Ken. Just ask her buddy." I replied and Ken nodded in agreement.
