When | opened the door, mom was there
standing beside the window.
| thought, ‘Did she saw what happened
outside.
| approached her with a nervous smile,
"You're back."
"Yes, |am. So... where's Sarah?", she asked
while looking around the house.
"Sven will pick her up."
She was surprised by my answer.
| took a relaxing breath.
| went upstairs to get changed into
comfortable clothes and came downstairs. | helped her by setting the
table for dinner.
She asked about the gift, "Did he like it?"
She seemed to be curious as usual.
| told the story about the hidden girlfriend. For amoment she looked stunned and the
second she started laughing.
| asked, "What makes you smile?"
"This means my ship is going to sail..." and
screamed.
"What ship?"
"You and that Senior!"
Wow. | didn't know my mom's a shipper and why she likes Calix this much. It's weird because the whole college hates him for a reason and my mom likes him
without a reason.
| said back at her, "In your dreams mom!"
"But | clearly remember that | didn't dream
of you two kissing in front of..."
"You saw!"
She nodded hurriedly with a smile.
"Let's keep this as a secret between us!", |
pleaded.
"Then...Bring Calix for lunch one day. |
wanna meet this guy."
"All right!"
Sven and Sarah came home. Sarah came running to mom and jumped over to her. They were so lovey-dovey. Sven left to his room silently. Dad came after him. Later,
we had dinner together.
The next day in College, My friends and | were discussing the project which mam gave due this Friday. Clara is our team leader since she scores more than us. She was separating topics for us and we were
presenting ideas for our project.
Luna poked me to look outside, | turned to
take a look.
Senior Calix was standing outside waving
at me and asking me to come outside.
| stood and walked to him.
He mumbled, "There's the practice today..." "Do | need to inform them?"
"No!...not that... You coming right?"
"I-| have to go to the library."
That was a lie. I'm not going to that
basketball court after what happened that
day.
"So...will you be there... until | finish my
practice?"
"No! I'll leave soon."
"Okay then. Get home safe."
He smiled and patted my head and left.
| came into the class and continued with
the group discussion.
The college got over. | was walking expecting Wil to appear. | have to stop
imagining things like this.
I'm sorry Calix. | can't go to court. Even if |
go | feel embarrassed and my eyes will
search for Wil and not for you.
Someone poked behind me, "Hey!"
| turned.
"Wil?"
"For a moment, | thought | missed you!", he
laughed and was catching his breath.
"What!"
I'm so confused to hear those words from
him.
| continued, "Don't you have to practise today?"
He answered with a bright smile, "Not for
freshers and... are you free this evening?"
"Why?"
"| wanna go shopping. Help me pick out some clothes. | Know you have the best taste when it comes to clothing. And...I'm really bad at it. So... will you please help
me?"
He made pouty lips.
How could | resist that!
"Blair told you?"
"Yeah. She said your good at it. So... help?”
| smiled and nodded to him.
He took me to the store. We went to the men's casual sector. He started to say about his favourite colour and which type he wears most and in which outfit he feels comfortable like stuff. But | don't need that stuff because | kinda watched him for... half a year? | guess so. | think | can choose a suitable outfit for him. And | like
the way he explains to me by the way.
| dig into the t-shirt section. This store had a good collection of designer shirts, jeans
and pants and t-shirts.
My eyes caught on a White & blue striped t-shirt. | said, "Try this."
He said, "| don't wear striped shirts... But | can give it a try." took the shirt and went to
the trial room.
In the meantime, | took two outfits like a hooded neck with White, Blue and Orange which goes with light blue Jean and the
other is a Bottleneck maroon t-shirt.
"Sam... Is it good?", asked after trying his
maroon t-shirt.
I'm speechless after seeing him. He looked like a prince charming from the
Fairytale. He looks hot in red!
"If you look like that then...it's good!" and he laughed.
He tried the hooded one, "Is this suits
me?"
Wow! He looks even more handsome in
this since | like hoods.
| nodded hurriedly. He laughed.
"If You being like this then how will |
choose.", he laughed.
"| don't know how...but you look good in
everything you wear."
"| Know you are my fangirl but | need your
help here."
What does he mean by that? Does? he know that | like him?
