Chapter 37: CHAPTER 37
"I know who you were thinking about under the tree, but don't forget about #rule number5" she said shutting her door on ayra 's confused with a sinister smile on her face.
Ayra creased her head in confusion and consternation as she crossed into her own room, first how did Alice know she had been thinking about Jack and what the heck did she mean by rule #5 ? Gosh she didn't even know rule #1 talk more of 5 . She slumped on her bed maybe Alice was merely trying to mess with her head, by saying that stuff but she had looked serious her mind argued.
Tsk tsk Alice!! She groaned under her breath, should I go back and ask her? She asked aloud . Nah she would probably ignore me not after I have refused to help her clean her room, scratching at her hair she smiled widely as an idea popped up in her head , she would search up the meaning of rule 5 on the internet and know what Alice meant by statement.
Gosh why didn't I think about it before, she muttered standing up to get her laptop and typing in her problem to goggle , as she waited for the results a message popped up and her brain short circuited.
It was a message from Jack, just a simple "Hey " and her body had gone cold like she was Ella in "Frozen ".Forgetting her search she took a deep breath and replied back with a " Hey " and waited for some minutes for his next reply but when it wasn't forthcoming she worried that, she had sounded too formal to him. On a second thought she added "how are you "? With a cute emoji.
I'm okay and you? - Jack
"I am perfect, swell everything is fine" - Ayra. she was about to press the send button but she held herself back for a moment, did she sound too gushy and eager to speak with him? Christ I wish I had someone I could ask and talk about these things with she thought biting her lower lips.
"Are you still here?" - Jack questioned noticing she had seen his text but wasn't replying back.
"Christ yeah I'm still with you, I'm fine jack "- Ayra.
"Okay that's cool you have been running through my mind ,so I just wanted to check up on you" - Jack.
Her cold body warmed up quickly at his words, he always knew what to say to turn her heart over and arose alien emotions in her. Unable to graps what to say next to his flowery words , she took a different route.
"Have you eaten" - Ayra.
"Yeah I ate with my mom "- jack.
"That's nice" - Ayra.
"Yeah it is, I love my mom a lot and before I forget she wants to meet you" - Jack.
Sweat broke out from her hands immediately and her heart beat faster than normal, furiously she typed in her reply.
"What for, why does she want to meet me? "
"I don't know, maybe get to know you I told her about you so she's kinda curious now."
"Jack why will you tell your mom about me?" She cried inwardly .
"Why won't I?" He replied with a question.
Ayra sent him an angry emoji.
His eyes widened when he saw the emoji and he quickly sought for forgiveness.
"Ayra please don't be mad at me, your name kinda of just popped into our conversation you don't have to meet my mom if it makes you uncomfortable."
Now ayra felt guilty seeing his message and regretted her earlier actions.
"Jack it's okay, I would be honoured to meet your mom unfortunately I am terribly shy around adults and I wouldn't want to disgrace myself" she typed adding a laughing emoji.
"Muffin I completely understand, no rush at all. "
"Thank you, what about your dad? You never speak of him just your mom."
Jack 's spirit sank at her question he suddenly wished he was fatherless than to be stuck with an abuser in the name of a father, gosh what if he inherits his father's traits and ends up beating his own wife in the future he thought suddenly, after all the Apple doesn't fall too far from the tree. No Jack shouted into the darkness of his room, he wasn't his father and would never hit a girl talk more of his wife , he would never become what he loathed he swore fiercely before looking back at his phone and saw that his muffin had left more messages.
"i'm sorry did I go overboard? Didn't know your father was an off limits topic" - Ayra.
"No not at muffin you did nothing wrong, don't apologize I just spaced out a bit."
"Well spacing out is my thing and you shouldn't do it without my permission" - Ayra.
Jack chuckled heartily on seeing her message before replying." Roger that ma'am" with a laughing emoji .
"My father is a sour topic for me, but I will tell you about him some other time not tonight muffin".
"Oh okay that's fair, sorry for even bringing it up." - Ayra.
"It's fine muffin, stop apologizing already".
"Okay see you tomorrow" she typed though she wasn't yet ready to stop talking with him.
"Not so fast have you thought of what we discussed earlier? "
Ayra groaned loudly, it was all I could think about she said aloud starring at her ceiling but decided to play obtuse.
"Uhm we talked about a lot of things jack, I don't remember the exact one" - Ayra.
"Why are you being deliberately obtuse? You know what I am talking about and you can't keep running away from it."
"I haven't thought about it yet" she lied.
"Think about it and give me an answer."
"Now?? "
"Yes muffin now, I can't wait anymore I feel like my whole world is held in your tiny hands. "
"My hands ain't tiny" she replied with a pouting emoji.
"Okay you are right thay ain't tiny at all".
"Why do I feel like you are laughing at me? "
"But I'm not, why do I feel like you are changing the topic?"
Ayra bit her finger nails, she really wanted to say yes her heart was shouting yes but she couldn't forget Alice 's sneaky voice creeping in her head.
"Muffin before you say anything, just don't think of other people tell me what you really want".
Well when he put it that way she really couldn't deny her heart of what it wanted, Fuck Alice and her stupid rule she thought gleefully before typing in her answer amidst a thuding heart.
