Great. I can't leave the house without my parents or Drake. I'm still kind of embarrassed with what I told Drake last night. I couldn't face him. Well, I can't leave the house with dad or ma saying the reason is I'll meet someone I don't know. They'll surely freak out and teach me a life lesson about it or mention the phrase 'stranger danger' to me over and over.

After I bathe, I wore my white lace dress, just fit for the beach, with a brown belt on. I think of a plan or a way to sneak out of this house without getting caught.
Nonna Meggy! I'll just take her to the beach as an excuse to help out on a date. It still sounds so weird, me helping on a romantic date.

"Nonna!" I called her as I went downstairs and went straight to the kitchen. I have to eat breakfast first before I go out.

"Oh hi dearie. What is it?" Nonna flashed me a smile. She was in the kitchen baking something.

"Nonna, it's been quite a time since we both bonded. You know, grandmother and granddaughter date! I was thinking if you wanted to go to the beach, you should really visit the beach here! It's seriously amazing." I told her. I had to say 'grandmother and granddaughter date' so she'll have a reason to come with me.

"Oh the beach. It has been 2 years since I've went to the beach" Nonna sighed as she was waiting for something in the oven.

"2 years? You should really come with me. You're going to miss out all the fun, we, teenagers do nowadays!" I told her. I needed a good reason for her to really come with me.

"Really? Hmmm. Alright, I'll change into my beach outfit first!" Nonna chuckled and I smiled back.

After 10 minutes, Nonna went out of the guest room. As always, she wore something, something I would wear.
She wore orange ombre shorts which showed off her saggy thighs (i'm sorry nonna) with a white blouse with flower printed details.

"I'm ready for the beach! I brought my hot pink swimsuit!!!" Nonna excitedly said. I laughed it off.

The oven made a 'tick' sound. Something she was baking is done. She got the tray out, it was chocolate chip cookies. She put them in a small container and put it inside her beach bag.

"Isn't Drake going to come with us?" Nonna asked.

"Uhmm no. He's still asleep" I answered.

We arrived at Redhead Beach. As soon as we stepped on the sand, I searched for someone with light brown hair wearing red shorts and a white shirt.

"Meggy? Is that you?" some old lady wearing a fedora and brown slacks approached Nonna.

"Cynthia Frederickson? From High School?!" Nonna Meggy exclaimed as they both hugged each other and talked about their lives.

"Nonna, I'm just going to the smoothie hut. Just text me." I whispered to her as she and her friend was talking.

"Sure, Melly. I'm just here with my dear friend." Nonna smiled. They walked towards a hut where, I think, Cynthia's family are.

I walked over the smoothie hut, there was no sign of a man there. Almost all the people working there were girls. So, I decided to order.

I glanced at the menu written on the chalkboard. There were a lot of refreshing drinks to choose from.

"Good morning, may I take your order? I recommend you to try our banana and strawberry smoothie, it is delicious!"

I looked at the one standing behind the register. It was that handsome guy from the empty convenience store. And, omigod, light brown hair, blue eyes, red shorts and white shirt???

"Excuse me, miss. Are you going to order?" He asked me.

"Light brown hair and blue eyes"

WHY DID I JUST SAY THAT.

"Uhm, I'm sorry?" he said looking confused.

"CHRS122?" I told him.

I can't believe I just mentioned to him the username. What if it wasn't him?

"Heyitsmelly? Wait. It's like we already met, right?" he asked me, smiling. And his dimples were showing, I don't know why but it feels like I'm melting inside.

"Uhm yeah. Chris from that convenient store" I giggled. Wait. Why did I just giggle...

"Hey, let's talk later. There's more customers in line behind you" He told me, still smiling.

"Oh sure. I'll just wait there" I smiled back while pointing at the chair.

I didn't get to order a drink. There were still 4 people in line.

CHRS122 is Chris from the convenient store. Why didn't I thought of that? Does he know that I'm heyitsmelly in the first place?
