"BUZZY feels close, but isn't a buzz supposed to be an annoying sound?" I ask.
"See it this way," he smiles, showing off his dimples. "The bee is always busy and up to something, right? It lives its life, buzzing carelessly, unbothered by the fact that it makes everyone else uncomfortable, so far as it achieves its purpose. So just like the Bee, I want you to live your life, free, without restrictions. What do you say?" He wriggles his brows with an almost impossible fluidity.
"Just call me Bo." I laugh.
"Do you still make Sua clean your room?" I ask, noticing how in order everything is.
"She insists. It's not like I can't tidy up." He says. "I'm a full-grown man."
I smile too, then start laughing. "You're not eighteen till two months. So don't flatter yourself." I say.
Chinny steps out from the shower. I turn to look at her, "My towel?"
"Don't worry I'm not on my period." She says. I blink repeatedly, folding my lips, just waiting to see if she realizes I'm on the phone. "What? Why are you still looking at me? Did you expect me to walk out naked? I said I'm not on my period so you don't have to worry about a thing. You can look away now. Thank you. "
"I didn't have to know that Chinny." Ivan says, and I watch her face go from smug-Chinny to flaming-Chinny.
"What! He's on the phone and you couldn't tell me?" she scrambles back into the bathroom.
I laugh. Ivan laughs.
"NOT FUNNY!" she yells, but it only makes us laugh harder. Feels like Karma.
"She isn't getting out of that bathroom until this call is done, and she'll never look at you the same way, knowing you heard those words from her."
He laughs some more.
"Chinny, should I get your nightwear?"
"Yes please." She says, her voice is soberer.
"Don't worry Bo. I just wanted to see your face before bed tonight, to remind you that I love you, and I'll keep loving you, and I can't wait to see you tomorrow, and maybe find out if you could tell me the colour of your dress?"
"I'm looking at it right now, but I'm not going to tell you."
"But please, just so my nerves don't strangle me in my sleep?" He has the perfect pout and I consider giving him a clue.
"It's heaven. Literally." I say
"Heaven?" he asks, and I nod. "Noted. I called earlier. Chinny picked, told me you were trying out the dresses. I should have bribed her into giving me a sneak peek. "
