SWEET REVENGE ~ (Editing On-going)

Chapter 31

Ola's POV

As we drove to my house, my heart felt so heavy and sad. Nene didn't stop sniffing and crying. This was not how i imagined our first 'few days' would be like. Seeing her in this state was making me weak and even killing me.

I wish i knew how to cheer her up, i wish i could make her forget the whole 'Lola-fall-out-saga' and make her smile like the Nene that i've always known her to be.

A thought popped up in my mind: 'How about i take her somewhere nice to cheer her up?'

"Angel, please, don't cry anymore. I'm feeling bad right now, seeing you this way." I said slowly, as i drove.

"I'm so sorry for making you feel that way... i just...i just can't get the thought of how we made Lola angry, off my mind." Nene replied amidst her tears.

"How about we stop by at the recreational center... we could do some fun things there and that way you'll feel relax and get those thoughts off your mind." I said, as i clasp my right hand with her left hand while i drove.

"No. I'm fine. Besides, it's Monday... it's too early in the week to visit a recreational center... i bet people working there will see us as very unserious students lazing around. They'll think..."

"I really don't care what anyone thinks. All i care is what you think and how you feel... i wish i know how to cheer you up right now..it's killing me to see you this way. We won't be the only ones visiting the place today... this is just the first week of resumption. Most students and even lecturers usually count the first week as a 'lecture free' week." I interject, interrupting her sentence.

"I'm fine... i really don't feel like visiting the center now." She replied with a weak smile. A smile that didn't reach her eyes.

"Ok. If you say so... how about we stop by the Supermarket? I'll need your help in deciding what i should get for my groceries... my kitchen is totally empty...we'll be spending five days together so i need to stock my pantry... i don't want Lola to accuse me of starving you." I said with a grin.

I was elated when i heard her giggle then she unclasped her hand and poke me with her finger and said:

"You never give up, do you? You really want us to stop by somewhere just to cheer me up... i'm very smart, you know."

"Yep. I don't want you going home with me looking sad and moody. Besides, i didn't lie when i said my pantry is empty... you know we men hardly stock our kitchen with foodstuff and the like... we rough it out with fastfood and booze." I replied with a wide grin.

"Hmmm. I get the picture now. Ok. We'll stop by to get some groceries then. If that will make you happy, it's fine by me." She said, sounding a bit cheerful.

"Make me happy? Or make YOU HAPPY? It's all about you, baby. As long as you're happy and smiling, i'm ok." I said as i raised her hand to my lips and kissed it passionately.

"Stop...you're tickling me that way." She said, as she giggled and tried to take her hand off my lips.

I held on to her hand tight and continued to kiss it passionately while i said:

"Which way? This way?... This way?... this way?..."

She giggled and then laughed aloud as i kept kissing her hand. It felt refreshing to hear her laugh and be back to her usual self. I let out a sigh as i gradually stopped kissing her hand and i said:

"Now this is the Angel i know. My Precious, ever smiling Angel. I never want to see you sad. Huh?"

Nene nod and said:
