The Weird Kid

6.

I see Crovin walk down the enormous staircase behind his sister with his phone in his hand. He walks towards me.

"Crovin, Ella has been waiting for you." Amanda says.

"Sorry to keep you waiting" he says looking down to the carpeted floor.

"Actually I had come here only a couple of minutes ago" I say not wanting to make him feel guilty.

"Ok kids, now work on your project" she says giving Crovin a knowing look. I wonder what does that look mean....

She leaves us two so that we can start our project.

"So you soften the dough and I will do the sculpting" he says.

Where the hell did he get this confidence from??

We do our work and surprisingly we are finished with our whole entire project on the first day. And it turned out to be really good and neat.

Apparently he works really very fast. Like four to five times faster than me or any usual person.

As we are keeping our things back in our bags. I glance at the books which were kept on the coffee table.

They don't seem as dusty as they were before, actually they seem quiet clean like someone has just read them and Crovin did not touch them since I came.

How the hell is that even possible????

"Do those books belong to you?" I ask. But immedetly regret asking as I see a horrified look on his face.

"Ummm actually they do not" he says in a scared tone.

"Ohh K " I say not knowing what to say.

I look at the clock and see the time which is 8:00pm.

"I actually need to get going because it is geting really late and my parents are gonna be worried" I say not wanting to make him anymore uncomfortable.

"Yeah, I actually forgot that" He says nervously.

Did he think I was gonna stay here forever??

"K then bye" I say picking up my bag from the floor.

He mutters a quick 'yeah sure' and walks me to the door. Before walking out I turn towards him and say
"Thank alot Crovin, If you would not have been there I don't know how I would have done the project this fast and this neat".

"No problem and that project was even fetching me marks not only you" he says shrugging his shoulder.

True......

We say our goodbyes and I leave that house and drive home. After going home and getting changed into something comfortable which according to me is a pair of capri pants and an oversized t shirt.

I have my dinner which is spagetti with my family. My mom asks me how my project was I tell her that it was fun and I finished it on today.

After that I go back to my room. And as I was making my bed I hear my phone ringing. I see the caller ID which is Colten's.

I recieve the call and talk for around forty minutes. Afterwhich I dim the lights to go to sleep, my eyelids droop as soon as my head hits the pillow.

I wake up by someone slamming my bedroom door. I see Harry standing there with an angry look on his face.

"What are you doing here Harry?" I ask.

"You did not return my headphones which you had borrowed from me." He replies looking angry which makes me chuckle.
