*knock knock*
"Come in Ana" Mrs Grey says
"Take a seat sweetheart" she added
"You said you wanted to talk to us" Mr Grey said bringing down his book
"Yes" I said.
"Go ahead dear" Mrs Grey said, smiling
So I decided to tell them about my new job that has been going smoothly for a week now. Tristan has also been helping me out a lot.
"I know I've been coming back late, and I don't want you to think that I'm doing something illegal so I've decided to come clean" I sigh heavily
"Okay?" Mr Grey raises an eyebrow at me. Chris really looked like him. No no no...I'm not checking Mr Grey out
"I work in a boutique. Prestige boutique. A friend of mine found it for me and I applied" I'm owe Tristy a lot
"A boy or a girl" Mrs Grey asked
"Boy. A classmate" I simply said.
''That guy that normally brings u home right?" Mr Grey asked
"Yes" oh! So they know that a guy brings me home.
How come they never asked?
"No problem sweetie. But isn't it too stressful? Like, your school closes around 4 and then you go over to work and comes back around 10" Mrs Grey said, with a sympathetical look on her face.
"Uhhh...No. it's not stressful" I lied
"You've trimmed down" Mr Grey said, observing me
"I'll bounce back. I think it's because it's my first week" I smiled. Please buy my smile and think I'm okay.
"Any other thing you want to tell us?" Mrs Grey looked at me without blinking her eyes
"A-about? No, I don't have any other thing to say" I played with my fingers. I can't just tell them that I want to leave their house and that I have found apartment. I'll look so ungrateful.
"So why you working. We can give you allowance fee you know?" Mr Grey said
"Uh.... Actually, thanks a lot. But I want to be independent" I smiled. Honestly, that's what the new me wants
"Okay" they both smiled at me
"That's a good one hunnie" Mrs Grey smiled, at me widely.
"I'll take my leave" I said stopping at the door. One more thing. "I'll be going out today. Can I?" I asked
"Be here before 12 am" Mr Grey said
"With who?" Mrs Grey asked, arranging her top
"A classmate" I smiled
"That guy huh?" Mrs Grey wiggled her eyebrow at means I laugh.
"Permission granted. You may leave the study room miss Ana" Mr Grey smiled and I laughed before shutting the door.
I walked towards my room and shut the door. When I entered inside, I brought out my phone to check if I have any text. Five missed call from Tristan and Two messages from Tristan. Woah! What did I miss?!
"Hey Tris" I said, casually
"Delilah" he said
"Are you kidding me? It's...."
"Ana. I know" he laughed. "The name delilah suits you. You're evil anyway"
"Hey! Just because I poured milkshake on you doesn't mean you should...."
"Shhh! You've done worse. Will you be out today?"
"I don't have shift today. It's Sunday"
"Shhh! Simple question. Will you be out today? Oh sorry, you don't understand English. Will you be allowed to come out today?"
"Sure. I took permission"
"Where were you planning on going?" He asked. I'm very sure he's smirking
"Apartment. For clean up"
"Urghhh! I wanted to take you to a basketball field."
"To do what?"
"Play basketball idiot" he laughed
"Hell no!"
"A karaoke?"
"Another day please"
"So you want me to come over?"
"Nahhh. I'll call Becca" I said. I don't want to stress him anymore. So I don't keep adding to what I owe him. Haha
"I'm not creepled yet. So I'll come over" he hangs up.
He didn't even let me talk. Idiot
"Seriously?!" I laughed out audibly to myself
*Beep. A message drops in*
From Tristan: I'll be there around 3 o'clock.
I look up to check the time and it's just 2 o'clock. An hour left.
"Who was that?" I heard Chris voice
"A classmate" I simply said, arranging my clothes
"What's happening to you Ana. You avoid me, it's so obvious. I haven't done anything. Have i?"
"Have you?" I tilt my head and smirked
"Please stop playing dumb. I miss the old Ana. Tristan is ...."
"The best. Tristan is real" I frowned
"What has gotten into you. He's a wolf in a sheeps clothing" he yelled
"The devil you know is better than the angel you don't know" I smiled.
"So I'm the angel right?" He moved close to me. "You're trying to say you don't know me? You believe I'm fake right?" He said, sadly.
"Fake? Are you a product?" I laughed. "We only have a fake and original products"
"Be serious" He hits his fist on my wall.
Never knew he could be violent.
"Chris! Taylor is here" Mrs Grey yelled.
"You should go attend to Her Royal Majesty" I smiled and he just frowned and bang my door on his way out.
From Cally: can we talk?
Cally? Is he okay?
From Me: sure. When?
From Cally: After school
From me: Till Monday then
From Cally: Xoxo
I arranged my things and locked my box. After this week. I'll be leaving this house. I feel sorry for Mrs Grey. I'm like the daughter she never had. She took me in as a daughter. She should also be happy for me.
An hour later, I dress up and wait for Tristans call before heading out. Chris and taylor were locked up in his room. Cozy moment huh? Talk about romantic. I get into the car and Tristan drives off.
At least when I leave this house, I won't be seeing them all cozy and shit. I can now rest too. I really ain't that mad at him, I mean, I'm a stranger after all.
