Twelve

The examination has passed and it’s finally my freedom to do what I want! We currently have no classes for three days straight because of some reason. I am here at the garden with Madam Therese. I guess Lacrus does not have any work to do since I saw him earlier this morning reading a book, just chilling inside his room. “Madam Therese, I have a question,” I spoke as I watched her cutting the flowers to decorate it inside. “What is it?” she responded. “Does Lacrus have an ex-girlfriend or anything? I am curious.” She looks at me and thinks. “Hmm, he doesn’t have one, I guess? Lacrus is so private about his love interest. No one knows about anything like that in this house.” “I see,” I replied. “Why do you ask?” “I just want to know. It seems like Lacrus does not have any interest in women. He’s just the type of person who only loves money and business.” Madam Therese laughed. “You can’t say that. People tend to change if they truly have someone they want. And as for Lacrus, he is so mysterious in many ways since he does not know how to be open or to show what he really wants. Who are we to say he only loves money and business, hmm?” Madam Therese has a point. “That could be true.” “Well, Elsie, if you want to be close with him, try and do things with him. He just looks like a bad person but he is not.” I can’t believe that. I am stuck at fifty-fifty about his personality! When Madam Therese is finally done, I help her decorate it inside the vase. She taught me how to do it, so I thought of making one to put it in Lacrus' room. I knocked at the door before speaking. “Hey, I made something. Can I come in?” “You can come,” he coldly replied. I pouted and just opened the door. I saw him wearing a black robe while he was trying to dry his hair using a bath towel. I can feel it both in my cheeks and in my face that I am blushing! He is so fvcking handsome! I can’t deny it! He looks at me and stares at the vase I am holding. “What is it?” I came back to reality when I heard his voice and shrugged my face a bit. “I helped madam Therese decorate some flowers so I made one and want to give this to you.” “You can just put it on my desk,” he replied and turned away. “I’ll get dressed,” he added. “Oh, okay.” I went inside and slowly walked to go to his desk. I gently put it on and smiled at how pretty it is! It is a light gerbera pink daisy with white daisies around it. It does not look so expensive but it somehow brings a color to his room, at least. I first looked around his room. It is kind of dull but looks so expensive. The color black and grey suits his personality. I was about to leave the room when he suddenly spoke, causing me to look behind me. “You’re still here.” “I was about to leave.” He was silent for a moment and looked at the vase filled with flowers I decorated. “You don’t have anything to do right now?” “Why?” “There is something I want to do with you.” I raised my eyebrows. “Huh? What do you mean?” He flicked his fingers at my forehead and made me groan in pain. “It is not what you think, silly.” “Then use words properly! What is it?” “Let’s go out?” My forehead wrinkled in confusion. “Are you asking me for a date?” “Is that a date? I just want to go out and I want someone to be with me.” I rolled my eyes and turned around to walk out. "I'm too lazy. Just ask some maid to go with you.” Before I completely get out of the room, he immediately pulls my shirt from the back causing me to stop walking. “I will buy the books you wanted. From what I have heard, there is this series of books you want to buy, am I right?” My ear felt a tingling sensation when I heard that. Well, I guess it is not that bad to go with him, right? “Okay, I will go with you.” I went to my room and changed my clothes to something appropriate. I am wearing a yellow shirt, shorts, and white shoes. It is simple but I want to wear something like this rather than wearing extravagant clothes. I think we’re just having a stroll or shopping. When I finished changing clothes, I went to where he was and saw him standing and leaning on his big bike while talking with Madam Therese. Lacrus was wearing a black fitted shirt causing his muscles to be visible and a black trouser. “He looks hot,” I murmured as my jaw dropped looking at him. So is it true? Men really look hot and attractive if they wear black shirts. What is the scientific explanation behind it!? Because my extreme enemy looks so fcking hot right now! I shrugged my head off a bit and started walking towards them. “I am done!” I gladly speak and look at Madam Therese with a smile. “Enjoy your free time, both of you. Keep safe,” Madam Therese speaks, and I nod in response. Lacrus starts the engine and kindly assists me to hop in his big bike. We’re already wearing our helmets for safety precautions. “Hold on tight. I don’t want to bury someone today,” he says, wanting me to pinch his side but of course I can’t. “I am already holding.” “Hold my waist, not on the big bike, kiddo.” Kiddo, he says!? “I am not a kid, you dumbass!” “But you’re much younger than me.” “But it does not make me less of an adult! You have the guts to annoy me, huh?” “Just do whatever I said before we head on.” I just heard Madam Therese laugh at us. I don’t know why but it looks like she thinks we’re having when I am not! I want to punch him so badly! I heard Lacrus click his tongue and took my hand to put it on his waist. “Don’t be a stubborn lady. Hold tight,” he coldly speaks as he still keeps on holding my hand until he finally lets go and starts driving. I don’t know. The moment he held my hand, my heart suddenly started pounding harder. Did he intentionally hold my hand before letting go and starting to drive? Whatever! I still hate him!
