You Were Born Bad ||Jerome Valeska||

Friend?

Summer's POV

"WINTER, OPEN THE DOOR!"

Alex screamed out of my door while knocking it hard.

Argghhhh! I finally had a wonderful time with my new friend!

"Wait a minute!", I shouted him back while letting my brunette hair fall down through my shoulder. I am kinda upset because I don't have any front hair. My big forehead is disturbing me.

I open the door and see Alex is holding one plastic bag with lots of snacks and two cans of carbonated drinks. It makes me blur of astonishment.

"Alex! Thank you so much!"

"Welcome. Let me put this first."

I welcome him to my 'house' and he put the plastic bag on my small round table in front of the couch. I sit and Alex put his hoodie on his lap. I keep on smiling because I am happy to be here with my new best friend.

True, Alex and I started to become friends when I first met him and after my performances. Alex told me that my part was so cool and fantastic, and he said he would like to know more about me. Then, we keep seeing each other at night and become the best of friend.

I am really grateful.

"You look great with this hair," he said, giving me a compliment.

"Thanks."

"By the way, I have some bad news and good news."

"Hmmm, tell me the good news first," I said.

"My good news is my birthday will be a few more days."

"Seriously?! Imma gonna get you some big present!! I'll promise, Lex!"

Stop right there. During this month, Alex and I made a nickname for both of us. Like Alex, I called him Lex. Me, Alex called me Winter because I told him to call me Summer. Weird, huh?

"Promise me, okay? And the bad news is, my father said that I need to go back home at 8 p.m." he plumped his lips.

"Dang," I replied to him. "Well, I hope you and I can hang out more for tomorrow," I said.

All I can see is the nods. He grabs the plastic bag and takes out two type of snacks and two different drinks. He opens it for me and lends it to me. I drank it and feels the gas is running down to my throat. I almost burp and already closed my mouth. Then, we talk about something stupid and laugh and blah blah blah.

"Lex, can I ask you something?"

"Ask me."

"Can you tell me more about your mother?"

I asked him about his mother and I can see him smiling. He put his drink and look at me.

"Why? In a sudden, you suddenly talk about my mother?"

I grin in shame. "No, I just want to know more about your family, except for your father," I explained.

Alex sigh. But he keeps smiling. "My mother actually a housewife. She stays at home and always waited for my father and me to come home. She just perfect. She's beautiful, she can cooks and sewing and so whatever. Her name is Gloria. Is that what you want to hear?"

"Yes, that's cool."

"How about you?" he asks me.

I stop. I'm not sure to say this to him but I let my tongue to speak with him and all I can see is he is waiting for me to speak. I look at him and say, "Actually, my mother died. Like, she had cancer."

"Owh.", he stops. He looks don to his lap and I smile fakely. "Sorry," he said putting his arm around me.

A/n: you can hear the song above now. It's a good part. If you mind 😎

Suddenly, I heard a cute melody on Lex's phone, telling him to pick it up because someone called him. It's clear, it's his mom. I saw MOTHER on his phone. He stands and pulls it to his ear. I drink my cool soda and pretend nothing happens.

After a long minute, he ends his call and looks at me. "Winter, my mother told me to go home now."

I stood. "What? Seriously?!"

"I know. I don't even know why." I frown sadly. "Hey, even though I didn't hang out with you today, at least I know I'm your favorite boy."

"What? Favorite boy?" I laugh with him.

"You know what I meant. I'm your fucking best friend."

"Shut up. Bye, Lex," I said while sliding the door. Alex walks out of my trailer and wave at me. I wave him back.

After I finished cleaning my table and everything, I sat on my sofa and thinking about Alex.

Favourite boy?

Just like the song.

I mean like, I am very happy to have a best friend like him.

A/n: Hiya Folks. Issa holiday!! And it's 11 a.m here, and I still lay on my bed.
