"Amanda!!....wake up..you oversleeping on the first day really!! Come on let's have breakfast...Dad is almost leaving."

Damn!!! After all that saga the last night I never knew I could manage to even sleep....it's 9am and I'm still in bed and it's time I fight it off.

I rushed to my washing room to clean up before I would go out to my family.

Alvin was the first person to see me when I got to the stairs. He was laughing his ass out at Mom's jokes as they were enjoying the breakfast. I passed a quick glance over the table and noticed I was the only one missing.

"Honey! Come on breakfast is ready let's eat together for the last time." Mommy said immediately she noticed my presence in the stairs.

"Last time? What do you mean?"
"Dad is leaving today...he just received a mail in the morning that his ticket and Visa are ready and he needs to travel in the evening."
"Oh that was so fast...okay."

Alvin couldn't stop peeking at me every minute I would raise a cup to my lips. What's wrong with him!

Alvin came from the Darryl's family in Dutmer town which was not more that ten kilometers away from our home. Their family was not that rich but were stable enough for them to get what they want. Middle class family if told to rate them. Just like us anyway.

We finished highschool together thou I never knew which campus he moved to. I never showed any interest in any of his ongoings and I wasn't looking forward to seeing him anywhere again.. Instagram is so petty thou.

I wouldn't deny Al was so cute that any girl could wish to offer themselves for just a one night stand and never regret it at any point.

He was light skinned with dark hair which he only did a side cut and leave the rest of it grow. It was long and curly and one thing he couldn't forget to do is style it every single morning when he woke up. He had nice shaped eyes like Bruno Mars' and a long protruding nose which was sharp at the tip I'd liked playing with it the last time we were still into each other. Honestly I had really missed playing with his nose and even as I approached the table that time I longed touching it and teasing him just for him to get a little bit annoyed. That shit made me feel good and nice since he's hardly pissed by anything...but anyway even thou he used to act annoyed or something...I knew he liked that too....cause the nose was so soft you wouldn't skip a second without playing with it...oh my God I can't just wait for us to get together one more time so that I continue with that staff....I would be more crazier this time and I promise he ......

Ow sorry....I was still talking about Al.....I hadn't mentioned his lips! Oh nooo they were so soft and I would rate them kissable cause hell yeah....infact that's why I got mad the last time he kissed Dora....I thought he was yearning to kiss me one day since we still hadn't made out and please....my lips matched that softness and his on mine could make a good apocalypse.... whatever the hell that is...

Alvin had a sense of fashion and trust me if I would have been given the ability to be the one to chose the best fashionista...it would really be Alvin Darryl and nothing would change that....as we are talking right now.... having breakfast....Alvin is in his grey champion-labelled pants with a hot sleeveless coat that's white in colour with his champion slides....I made sure I saw what he's wearing on his feet and I'm proud he didn't dissapoint....

Actually the short rumor among the little youths around school and everywhere was that champion happened to be the latest label and whoever had anything having that label really deserves a crown....and the person having two of his wears with champion is right in front of me having breakfast with my family...hhhh!!!

Alvin's daddy was a total copyright of his son and he was so social with everyone.... everytime I would go visit Alvin in the older days of course.....I would have most of my time with his dad than Al thou and I never regretted any of it cause he was so interesting. He was a manager at the Dulo company in their town and worked as a hockey couch in the youth team in Dutmer as part time...he was so healthy and so lively I bet his students in hockey really liked him... Sometimes Alvin could join him to the field for some practices and staff and they looked so happy and had so much fun.

His mom wasn't such a darling like every mother out here is and I can't lie....we never got along really..... although she was a nurse and lots of regards came her way at work for being so loving and understanding with the patients....I protested that every time I heard that my bad ..she always looked me with cold eyes when I could visit which gave me an awkward feeling that I can't even stay as long as I'd planned to....she could never say hi and I thought to myself that maybe she's so proud and hated people so much that she can't handle new faces at her home.

I couldn't stop staring at Alvin as I lifted my cup of coffee to my lips...each time I could think I'm having him on my arms and giving him lazy kisses on the cheek promising him a future for us two and a world that no one else could enter...his teeth were white and clean that I even started wondering if they've ever cought any dirt or cavity. I loved how his canines were equally shaped and spaced between each other.

Why is he not even looking at me?? Is he not interested anymore....did he take what I told him last night seriously....but I was just joking..can he at least just look at me for a minute...instead he looked so committed to his food and momma's jokes that he didn't even notice my presence...he is so selfish...why did he come to our house anyway...if he really came because of mom...then why did he call me yester night to the sitting room...he could've just slept! Uurgh some people are so shameless....he should just go to their home now...I don't think we can manage this awkwardness till the end of my holiday.

"Hah!!! She's not even listening to me ...look at her now!...I know I wouldn't even take a day out and I will have received more than enough messages from her crying out on how she really misses me!!look Amanda!"

Dad shit!

"Yes Dad...are you really going today...I'll really miss you so much" I shouted so loud from nowhere when I noticed all eyes were basically on me...oh shite what have I been looking at and thinking all this time.!

"I just said I'll be gone for a while and I'll be sending you mails and video calling you just to check up on you....you know you've always been my only girl in this house and I wouldn't wish anything bad to happen to you yeah?"
"Yeah Dad I'll be looking forward to hearing from you soon and thank you Daddy I love you so much."
At least I'm engaged in the story now...everyone was so quiet on the table and the conversation remained to be just mine and my papa and for sure I never felt this important....I don't care if they were listening to this dad-daughter talk but what really matters to me is that we are the only ones talking and every damn person is fucking silent...aaw...I just can't remember when was the last time I talked when everyone is this silent.

I stole a glance at Alvin and all this time he hasn't been looking at me....what's wrong with him!!! Why is he not staring at my pretty face today!! I'm going to have a bad day I promise!
