Summer love

- Chapter 5 -

I woke up. Even though it didn't feel like it, I had already been one whole week in Brighton! Which meant it was Sunday. On the weekends, I didn't have to take care of Cindy as her mum could do it, but I liked spending time with her so, as yesterday that was Saturday, I would probably spend the majority of the day with her. I enjoyed playing with her plus we were getting closer and closer every day.

I got up and as always headed to the bathroom. It was Sunday as I said and I had no plans for today so I just headed downstairs in my pyjama and with no makeup on. Whatever.

- Good morning Pez! – a smiling Cindy, that was having breakfast, greeted me

- Good morning little angel! – I said with a deep voice as I was still asleep

- Good morning Perrie, how are you? – Amber asked me

- I'm good thanks, how are you? – I asked

We chatted for a bit and I sat down in front of Cindy. Amber was washing the dishes so I guessed she had already eaten. It was 10am. Honestly, that was early for me, on a Sunday, but for some reason I woke up "early" on a Sunday so I guess it was okay. Again, I stood up until 3am watching "How to get away with murder" (I swear I'm going to kill Leigh) and now I was sleepy.

- Do you want some coffee? – Amber asked me seeing my tired face

- Sure! – I said standing up, as I didn't want Amber to do everything alone

I also prepared some toasts for me, as Cindy was almost finished with her cereals and then I sat down with my breakfast.

I spent almost an hour sat there, as Cindy explained me a bunch of things she wanted to do with me today. At some point she left to her room to play and Amber sat down with me while I poured more coffee inside my mug.

- Listen, the weekends are you free days, you don't really need to do everything Cindy wants to – she explained me calmed – I mean you can play with her but she has to understand you are not here to do all she wants – she added

- I know but it's okay, I like spending time with her plus I don't really have anything else to do – I told her smiling

- It's okay, I just don't want you to feel like you have to do it – she responded with a gentle smile on her face as well

And as if God had heard me suddenly my phone beeped:

Jade: good morning little sunshine! Are you doing anything today? I am so bored so how would you feel about joining me for a movie? Let me know xJadex

And suddenly my face lighted up.

I saw Jade on Wednesday, the day after our meeting in school, as she told me, and after leaving the kids we spent like half an hour in the parking lot just talking, until she left and so did I as I had stuff to do. Then I run into her in the supermarket on Friday and we ended up doing the whole grocery shopping together.

And now she was asking me to meet today for a movie. Of course I wanted to say yes but I didn't want to disappoint Cindy.

- Who is it? Your face changed – Amber said curious

- Oh, is just Jade, she was asking me to meet her for a movie but I don't want to disappoint Cindy even if I don't have to be with her the whole day – I answered

- Well, again, yes, you don't have to be with Cindy the whole day but if you want to be with her and also meet Jade, tell her to come here! The three of you can watch a movie together – she suggested

- Are you sure you're okay with me inviting Jade? – I asked kind of surprised but also happy about the idea Amber just had

- Sure, she's a really nice girl plus she seems to like you – she said sipping in her coffee – do you like her? – she asked me
