"She just called, I thought she would never speak to me" I had a big grin plastered on my face full of happiness as I found my self blushing and recalling that moment we kissed. "Maybe mom was right after all but she isn't right about my feelings, I like her just as a friend, right Louis?, it was just an accident," I thought, trying to sort out my feelings and clear my thoughts. "I should text her now" I took my phone and tested her a 'yes'.

"What is taking Louis forever? I need an excuse to get out from here and I want to see him. I don't know how I feel about him and how he does too, please be fast" I was pacing back and forth my room, waiting for him to reply, about to text him again, I received a message, I felt my heart melt just seeing a yes on my screen, a wide smile appeared and I quickly took my keys ready to go out, not wasting any more time.

"Young Lady, where are you going?" I stopped at the sound of my Dad's voice. "Uhm, I'm only going out for a stroll, I'd be bored sitting all by myself in my room," I said, not telling him the main reason why. So that was a half-lie.

"I was just about to send Mishael to your room to keep you company but since you are going out, he can as well tag along, right?" Ohhh No no, I'm in trouble, Just great. I started looking for excuses for Mishael not to come with me but nothing seems to come and I saw Mishael's lips twitch into a smirk.

"Err, Bossy" I felt eyes turning to me, obviously his clients would be surprised with what I call him. I rolled my eyes then continued, "I mean, Dad, I can go on my own and-" The idea suddenly came, "-I'd also be going for shopping with Cheri and we can't bore him you know" I finished hoping he would buy it.

"I thought you did that two days ago? Or what was with all the shopping bags you brought home? Where they head in it?" My Dad said, making me almost choke on my salivate while Mishael and the clients chuckled.

"Teenagers, honey, you should just leave her, what's wrong with buying the whole store?"

Cinderella?

"Cinderella!" I and my Dad screamed at the same time and I ran to go hug my mom while my Dad kept his cool and walked slowly to us with both palms in his jeans pocket. "Princess, I've missed you" I heard a cough from my Dad. "I mean, missed you both," She said.

"I missed you too Rella" I hugged her tighter. We stayed like that for a split second then I released her to my Dad. They kissed and I smiled, remembering the one between me and Lou. That reminds me, Lou, got to go.

"Mom, Dad, I'd see you for dinner, you can invite Mr. Arrogant there, I don't mind," I said referring to Mishael as Mr. Arrogant. Then I waved them goodbye and was outta there.

What's taking her so long, she'd just a few blocks away from here. Relax Lou, Ann will be here soon. I hope the sitting room is arranged, I should go check. I rushed down feeling nervous that Ann is coming here, I had brought out the cookies my mom had baked this morning since she likes them. I made sure everything was perfect, I really don't know why I'm like this. I've even got sweaty palms.

 "Relax Lou, relax, it's not like you want to propose to her, which would be funny if I am," I said to my tensed and nervous brain.

"Anything I'm missing here?" I heard from behind me which startled me, after which the voice started laughing.

"Why do you like doing that, I can get can heart attack you know" I sighed, trying to make her understand. Ryan still hasn't gotten used to me being this way, ever since that terrible accident. My face saddened at the thought of it.

She stopped laughing, "Hey! Lou, I get it, don't be sad, please, I won't ever do that again, I promise, just don't be sad" She said and placed her small right thumb to wipe the tear that almost fell from my eyes while tip-toed. I smiled a little reassuring her that I was fine.

"Lou? Are you okay?" Joanna said as she walked through the front door. Why the hell was that opened? Ryan.
