Chapter 5
1368 Words
We reach at this huge house which is white and grey and is composed of a lot of glasses. There's a huge front porch and a huge pool. All this seems so surreal, but it is real.
These people are a true definition of rich people. I can see a couple of cars in the garage, prolly two.
We reach the front door and Milan types in a password and the door opens.
"Do you always have to use a password to get in?" I ask
"Not really, just that I don't got the keys right now."
We get into the house and it's so neat, there's a huge chandelier in the living room and I also notice a huge kitchen and dining table .
Feels like I'm no longer on earth.
Lan leads the way and we seat on the couch in the living room. My eyes can't stop exploring this marvelous House
Milan goes to the kitchen.
MILAN
I find a note on the counter and it reads;
We're at Tiffany's, whenever you feel alone you can join us and if you feel hungry you can just order pizza.
Love mom
"That's sick" I say with a smirk.
I take the note, fold it into a ball and throw it into the dustbin.
I then open the freezer to get two chocolate milkshakes and go where Real is and offer her a milkshake, at first she refuses, but then I get her to accept it and she does.
We both seat there sipping on our milkshakes.
"Where are all your friends?"
Real breaks the silence.
I take one more sip.
"They're all prolly busy with their fuckin lives"
Well atleast that's how I can explain it.
"Aren't you supposed to be busy with them?"
Real asks again. I then shake my head.
"They don't fuckin care and I don't get in their way."
I tell her, but then she gives me an accusing look.
"How can someone treat you like abracadabra, I mean you're the type of guys to rule high school"
I take a deep breath and shrug.
"s**t just happens"
I take another sip and so does Real.
"Don't take this too personal, but then I think you don't like speaking with people."
Real explains.
" I do, but they just I dunno.." I shrug
"Shut me out."
"Maybe you don't talk too often or maybe..."Real shrugs
"You're just too busy with your own business to notice they care"
Oh my god Real is so naive. I need to explain things to her.
"I'm not always busy Real, my schedule is blank except on Thursdays cuz that's when I have practice, that's it."
After I explain everything to her, she seems to have just given up and instead just stares at me. I do the same and eyes lock. Real's eyes have something in em, they just seem magical. I decide to break the contact.
"Umm... I'll get your cards"
I tell Real as I get up.
I go upstairs to my room, get the cards and come back downstairs to give the cards. After I give her back, we hear a sound of car tyres screeching in our driveway and I know exactly who might be back right now.
"W-who's that?"
Real stummers.
"Well... They're just my parents"
I explain to her, but her jaw drops and she looks surprised like she's seen a ghost.
"s**t! Your parents are here, you didn't tell me they were coming any time soon. Where's the backdoor?"
I understand everything, but back door?
"Backdoor, why?" I ask
"I need to leave, your parents can't find me here"
"You just gotta meet em coz if you leave using the backdoor then they'll be very suspicious, come on my parents aren't as shitty as you think."
I explain to her whilst looking directly into her eyes.
She sighs and then comes up with her own question.
"So... what I'm I gonna say to em?"
"Something like you're my new girl"
I say winking at her with my dashing smirk.
"What, no!"
"Haha... just kidding, almost got you there. Relax, all you've got to say is you go to Montana high with me and that we're doing a project"
"But I can't say that ".
Uh-oh, too late, the door cracks open and two people and a little girl come in.
It's a lady and a man; the lady's wearing a purple jumpsuit and she has straight brown hair and is wearing a lot of makeup. She's so pretty and the man is wearing a black tee, jean pants and a leather jacket. The little girl's wearing a purple vest and black skinny jeans. The man is carrying a lot of shopping bags and the lady's carrying a hustle bag.
"Honey, where should I leave these?" The man asks showing the lady the shopping bags.
"Leave them on the counter"
The little girl notices me and grins .
"Mom!Dad! Mil's brought a girl home!"
The little girl announces and a chill of coldness runs through my spine as everyone's attention shifts to me.
"Oh really!" The lady says looking at me and smiling at me.
"She's so cute!" The lady says excitedly.
"Well at last he has company" the man says looking at me.
"Is she the new Sasha?" The little girl asks.
I don't know who the hell Sasha is.
"No... She's not my girlfriend, we're just partners" Milan says
"Partners?" The lady asks
I believe she's Lan's mother.
"Yes...partners in a s-science project" I stummer.
"Cool... aren't you just so cute" The lady says pinching my chicks with a babish voice and I just smile at that.
"I like your hair, is it natural?"
The little girl asks pointing at my hair.
"Yes" I reply
"What's your name kid?" Milan's dad I guess... asks me.
"Reality, but you can call me Real"
"Wait isn't that -" Milan's mom begins, but I cut her
"Ya.... and I like it" I say
"Glad you like like it. Don't take it too personal, no offense"
I smile
"Non taken"
"Right" the lady clears her throat:
"I'm Misha and he's Alejandro. We're Milan's parents"
"Nice to meet you" I say shaking hands with them.
"And I'm Daryn, one of your fans" the little girl says
I smile at her and kneel down
"Really?"
"Ya"
I smile and touch her chick.
"So tell me honestly, how's my outfit?" Misha asks me
"It's perfect"
"What about my hair?"
"It's nice and cute"
"And my makeup do you think it's too heavy?" She says pointing to her face.
To say the truth I do love it, even though it's a bit too heavy, but it's nice.
"Mom.." Milan says trying to stop her
"Relax Mil, we're just having a girly talk here. You all let me down, but she's complementing me. So tell me what about my earnings?"
"Mom please she needs to get going " Milan says
"Oh really, this soon?" Misha asks with a disappointed look
"Umm.. yes.."I reply
"Aren't you enjoying it here?" Misha asks
"I am, but I need to get home, it's a bit far"
"Fine " Misha says disappointed.
"I'll walk you to the door " Lan says
After saying my goodbyes to everyone Lan walks me to the door. His parents seem so pleased to see me that they tell me to visit more often.
OUTSIDE...
"I'm sorry about my family's weird behaviour " Lan says
"You kidding me, your family's awesome " I say with a loud tone
"They were just so excited to finally have some company "
"I understand... you didn't tell me you have a sis"
"About that... she's just my cousin, she moved in with us when her mom croaked"
"That's sad " I say with a sad tone.
"Do speak more often "
"People just shut me out, what's the point "
I sigh
"I need to get going " I say
"Can I have your number?" Lan says
"Why "
"I dunno... maybe to speak more often?" He says winking at me
Then he passes me hi iPhone and I type in my number and save my name then return it.
