"Where are you going?" She asked, looking away from the lakorn she was watching "Just there." I told her as I grab something from the fridge.

"What just there? What is the exact place?"

"Just there in front Mom, don't worry I will not go home late night today. I will be just visiting Beam." I told her, opening our door. "I'll leave now.

"Uhuh... Visiting Beam, Okay have fun!" I head mom shout as I'm about to leave.

BEAM

I was just having my alone time in my room and laying on my bed, reading a good novel book. Just then after some few minutes I head a knock on my door, it wasn't locked so I just told that person to come in, expecting it to be my mom or even Forth as he always just go straight to my room.

And I was right it was him "Hey, Am I disturbing you again?" he asked, entering half way.

"Hey? Is that even a question?" Isaid being sarcastic.

"Can I come in?" Giving him a look I asked him back "Seriously Forth?
      Why he is asking if he can come in if he's already in my room, and just need to close the door.

"Is that a Yes?" He asked more.

"You—" I said, taking a pause to sigh, "Just come in. What do you need?"

"You."  He said as he close the door, and I just rolled my eyes. "Anyways here for you."  he said as he give me a small box.

"What is this?" I asked removing the ribbon wrapping the box.

"Something you will like, well I hope so."
    He said as he sit down beside me.

"How sure are you that I will like this." I joked out.

"Just open it." He said and that I open the box.

"Oh , food of course." I exclaimed seeing a beautiful stack of colourful macarons.

"You don't sound surprised?" He said sounding down.

"Why would I when you always bring me food everyday." I told him, and I saw him bite his lips just like everytime he's feeling guilty.

"But you are right I like this." I told him, and change back to smiley face again, "Thanks, here have one." I said and put one whole macaron in his mouth before I pick one for me and eat.

"So what are you reading?"
    He asked as he grab the book that I put down beside me.

"Some Vampire story."

"House of Night?" I heard him read the book title. Nodding, I continue to enjoy the sweet food he gave me, not until I realized that he was being unusually quiet. I thought that he was staring at me like usual but as I turn to look at him, there is Forth comfortably laying his back on my bed. But what is surprising is that the book I was reading awhile ago is now on his hand, Forth is reading a book?

"I thought you don't read?" I asked making him turn his attention to me.
      
"Huh? Oh, I just got interested with the story." He said letting out a shy smile. "—uhh can I borrow this?" He then asked surprising me with his question.

"Yeah sure, I have read that 2 time anyway." I told him, though I'm bit hesitating.

But seriously I'm wondering if he will finished the book.

"Anyways Aren't you gonna talk? I mean rant today?" I told him, "Not that I feel awkward I'm actually having my peaceful alone time awhile ago— It's just—" But then before I even finish my words Forth have cut me and again make me more surprised with his words.

"How about let's just read today? like Book club thing? My mom does that with some of her friends."

"You sure?" I said, is he sick?

"Yeah, Come sit here."
     He ordered as he tap the space beside him.

"This is my room if you may forgot."
    I reminded him as I grab one book at my book shelf before taking a sit beside him who is once again got eaten by the book. He is sick?

Not noticing how long we have been reading until I heard my mom knock on the door, calling our name. I turn to look at the digital clock I have just to find out that it's already 6PM and we have been just reading for four hours.

Mom told Forth that he should just have a dinner here, but he he decline as he could not because her mom might have prepared some dinner to their house. But just then as we got down stairs we have already saw Forth's mom at the kitchen, carrying plates to put on the dinning table.

And that is when we have learned that both of our moms have decide to cook together, and tried the new recipe that they saw at the internet.

I watch Forth hugged his mom as he greeted her, and I just wai' to auntie Janen to greet her as well.

And that all of us went to the dining room and have our dinner It was really a turn on for me as I watch how Forth is so good with taking care of his mother, well I mean I'm also good with my mom. But seeing him putting food on his mothers plate was kinda next level? Don't get me wrong I do that also to my mom well when I'm the one who cook the food.

Gosh this Forth is earning point isn't he?
First he stopped smoking, he told his friend to stop smoking when he saw me, second he reads book for an hour and want to borrow it, third him being a good son.

3 points for hufflepuff!!

Huh... that was a great nickname for him I should change his contact name to that.
