CHAPTER 18
298 Words
The next morning, I woke from the couch. I saw Mia lying beside me with her jacket covered on her face. I stretched my body and glanced the clock.
It was just 8.
The laptop was still open with the screen off. I closed it and fell beside Mia.
“Yo”
“Aren’t you awake?” I asked nudging her hip with my knees.
She moaned. I sighed and got up from the couch. The music was playing in the kitchen. My mom was humming to it. I squinted my eyes and rubbed it.
I walked to the kitchen and looked at my mom who was busy making breakfast.
“Hey honey, you awake?”
“Good morning!”
I smiled and nodded “Good morning mom!”.
“When did she come?” she asked while decorating the plates.
“Yesterday”
“We had something going on…”
I startled and gasped.
“Oh s**t”
I remember making a plan yesterday with Mia that we got a clue about this odds and we’d search about this more in the library.
I ran back to the couch and woke up Mia.
“Mia!”
“We planned yesterday to there!” I screamed at her face. She woke up crushing her jacket. Her eyes were still closed.
“Ooooff”
“Can we go later?”
I frowned my brows at her.
“No way!”
“Do you want me to struggle even after getting the facts?” I added.
She exhaled sharply and wiped her eyes.
“Gimme me a minute, I’ll go and fresh up”
I smiled and tagged her to the upstairs. She used the bathroom that was on the way and I went in my room to change.
