To Run Away Is What He Did (Aroha Series #2)| COMPLETED

Chapter 18

Pleased with what happened that night, I wasn't able to sleep well.
MJ calling me was really out of the blue.

That's why all I did while lying in my bed was to daydream, completely disregarding the time of my supposed to be sleep.

I woke up the next day with an irk kind of knock on my door. I am already awake but my eyes are still half closed.

I get up of my bed and opened the door to see Sis Katie in her office attire, standing straight with a Michael Kors bag on her left hand.

"Morning, Sis." I greeted her with my wide smile.

"Seriously, Aubrey?" She said with a sarcastic tone.

"What?" My face went blank, baffled.

"Sleeping for almost half a day?" She showed me her wrist watch.
"It's 11:30 am. Did you stay up all night?"

My eyes widened at what she had said.

"11:30 am?!" I shouted.

Uncertain with what I heard, I quickly ran to my bed and stretch out my hand to get my phone on my bedside table.

I shrieked as soon as I saw that it's already 11:31 am. I was hoping my sister is playing tricks on me again. But no!

"I'm going now." My sister announced.

"Aniyo!" I quickly answered her.

She raised her left brow.

"I mean, please wait for me. I need to go somewhere too." I pleaded.

She was looking at me with total confusion. Her eyes are filled with questions probably to where am I going and why am I reacting this way.

"Please, Unnie!" I begged.

She sighed and rolled her eyes before nodding to me as if she was forced.

I bit my lips.

"Damn it! I'm so late!" I cried before I dashed to the bathroom and showered.

Sis Katie was blabbering something outside. I couldn't hear it clearly but I'm pretty sure she was scolding me for staying up all night.

I kept stomping my feet in irritation everytime I think back to what I did last night that caused me to wake up late.

Right after making sure that there was no bubbles left on my hair, I hastily reached for my towel and ran to my closet to wear the clothes I prepared last night.

I put on my black shirt with a Kim Myung Jun calligraphy at the center top. I tucked it in my bleached blue pants with a black belt paired it with my white sneakers.

I let my hair down since it still wet and I don't have time to blow it anymore.

"Ugh!" I voiced as I am combing it.

As soon as I was done, I threw my comb somewhere and didn't tend to look where it fell.

I praised my self for preparing the things I needed to bring today, last night. Atleast it saved my time!

I reached for my phone again and checked the time.

Damn, PM!

I slid it inside my bag and ran to my sister.

"Unnie!" I called her.

"Oh?" She sounded exasperated.

"Let's go." I said before I wore my bucket cup and my shoulder bag in an instant.

She made the car ring, a sign that that it was unlocked.

I went inside and as soon as I locked the door, Sis Katie asked me.
