After a loooong week of getting busy again, putting my workaholic ass back to business, I'm so ready to embrace the weekend. Yesterday, even if I was so tired and rest was the best thing to do, I still managed to bond with the kids and went out with the family for some time. At least my tiredness is always lessened when I'm with my coconuts Max and Emme and of course, Alex.It's so good to know that everything is going well according to my plans. That makes me sleep so tight at night. Knowing I can now assure that everything is really back to normal, I don't have to worry about anything anymore. Nothing's holding me back.
But there's just one thing that's lacking before I can conclude that I'm ready to enjoy the weekend and plan things ahead for the following week. I haven't made up with Leah yet. Tomorrow is Saturday, which means, it's been a week since the little argument incident at the restaurant with her.
And because I suddenly remember that I still need her help. I decided to go to her place at her LA house. But before doing so, I send her a message just in case she's going somewhere and I'll might not catch her in her home.
iMessage from Me > Leah: don't leave the house, I'm coming over😉
Not really expecting for a respond from her cause I know she's still upset with me, I go to find Alex to tell him I am going to Leah's later.

Leah opens her door as soon as I ring her door bell twice. I know she's not that childish to keep me waiting at her door like a doormat.
When she opens her door, she is not wearing a single bit of makeup and is not dressed that nicely. That means Beau is not around cause when he is, she dresses up even if she's planning to stay home the whole day and just merely cuddle with her boyfriend. And it's also a hint that she's not going out today. It's weird she's not with Beau cause I expected them to be even more inseparable after their vacation cause they can't get their hands off with each other. I want to ask why Beau is not staying at home with her, but I'd rather not. It's really not a good timing.
"What?" She asks plainly, just standing at the door like she isn't planning to invite me in. Which is really odd cause she's never been rude to me like that even if we constantly insult each other.
"Leah," I look down on my heels before looking back at her. "I just want to apologize for.. For whatever I said last time. Just forget it happened. It will never happen again. I'll never bring it up ever again. I'm sorry."
She sighs and goes inside her house. "Come on, in."
I knew she couldn't resist me. I hide a smile cause I don't wanna show early victory yet, just in case she'll get upset with me again and she'll kick my big ass out of her house.
"I know why you're apologizing. You want something from me."
I sit on her couch while she heads to her fridge and gets us some fruit juice.
"No Leah.. Really, I mean it."
She puts them on the glass table then sits on the other couch, still not making eye contact with me but rather just looking at the juice and anywhere else she could look except directly at me.
"I know you want me to do a favor. Okay, tell it right away cause I'll do it anyway even if I'm so upset with you."
And with her words like that, she really knows how to make me feel guilty.
"Please don't be like that. I swear. I'll never stick my nose up to your romantic relationships ever again if that's what you wish," I say even if I know it would be really hard.
