STUBBORN HEARTS<3 (complete)

The Orange Farm

I woke up feeling a bit dizzy. I smelled something mouthwatering. I opened my eyes and found

myself in an unfamiliar room. I looked around and saw a tray of food on the bedside table.

Without thinking, I quickly attacked it.

As soon as I was finished, I stretched out lazily. I stood up and headed towards the door. I

opened it and peered through but I saw no one. I stepped out of the room and looked around

again. I saw the stairs in my right. I climbed down.

The house was pretty big but not bigger than ours, of course. I frowned as I didn’t see anyone.

“Pest!” I called out. If you’re planning another prank on me, you’re gonna regret it”

No answer.

Aish! Where is that pest? Oh, wait a minute! What if those bad guys chasing us caught him? And

I just gave them a clue to where I am. Aish! I should hide myself quickly.

I looked around, searching for a place to hide. I decided to go to the right side of the house when

out of the corner, I bumped into someone. Fear and dread washed over me. Waah! I think he’s

the one of those bad guys! I screamed at the top of my lungs and started running away from the

person.

“What’s going on here?” I heard a very familiar voice up ahead. I looked up and saw the pest.

Relief washed over me. I quickly went to hide myself behind him and pointed a shaking finger

on the opposite direction.

“T-there’s a person. . .”

“I’m sorry if I scared you” the person said.

“What did you do, Kevin?” the pest asked.

“Nothing. She bumped into me and started screaming”

“Y-you know that guy?” I asked.

I heard the pest chuckled. “That’s Kevin, he’s a houseboy here”

“What?” I panted.

“He’s a houseboy. What are screaming about?”

“I. . . I thought he’s one of those. . . .” I trailed. Then, I realized that the pest had his arm

wrapped around my shoulder. Kyaa! I quickly shrugged his arm off, feeling disgusted. The pest!

He obviously took advantage of my momentary panic.

“Ya! How many times do I have to tell you that you don’t have the right to touch me?!”

“What if I want to? Can you do something to stop me?” he teased and poked my arm.

“Ya!” I burst out angrily.

He poked me in the forehead this time.

“Ya!” I burst out again. Suddenly, he pulled me into his arms, locking me in a bear tight hug.

Kya! I started struggling out of his arms, trying to free myself.

“Let me go” I gritted. I continued attempting to free myself from his arms. I want him to let me

go but I didn’t really expect he would. So, I was pretty surprised when he did, making me

stumble on the floor, butt first.
