I'm In Love With a Music Lover

IILWAML - Chapter 18

<John Clifford's POV>

I never wanted to go home yet but it's already past ten in the evening. I enjoyed being with Meish's family and telling stories with them that I haven't even remember to take a look with my wrist watch and need to go back home.

I arrived at home with smile on my lips.

"Where have you been?" he's there sitting in the couch on the dark place of the living room.

The smile on my face washed away as I heared him talk. Because of too much enjoyment, I lmost forgot that there's someone who's going to confront me when I arrived home late.

"I just dropped by at one of my classmate's house. I'm sorry I'm late." I answered.

"Okay. I've waited for you for dinner but  I'm sure you might already have your dinner at the house of that classmate of yours. Go to your room now and take a rest. You still have your classes tomorrow." he said before he left.

I wondered why he never confront with me as I have expected.

I just took a glass of water at the kitchen before I entered my room to have shower before I take a rest.

I lie at my bed thinking of what was happened earlier at Meish' house. For the last time, I still wish to have a parents like Meisha had before my eyes decided to close and drowned from sleep.

<Meish' POV>

Paika-ika akong naglalakad papasok ng school. Psh! Sana pala nagdala na lang ako ng extrang step-in magkakapaltos pa yata paa ko dahil sa sandals nanpinasuot ni mommy. Di pa naman ako nakapagpractice ipanlakad kasi kanina lang niya naalalang ibigay pagkatapos niya akong pasadahan ng tingin mula ulo hanggang paa kaninang pagpasok ko sa komedor para kumain ng agahan.

Daig ko pa ang nakapkapan papasok sa isang private room sa ginawa niya at dahil nga matalas ang kanyang mata at hindi kasali ang isip e nakita niya ang suot kong flipflops na ginamit ko sa aking uniporme at bigla niyang naalala yong high heeled sandals na binili daw niya kahapon para sakin na nakalimutang ibigay at ito na ngang sinusuot ko ngayon.
