Chapter 17: Stayover (Part-3)
I was embarrassed as hell.
I started thinking why me, is my luck that bad. Why every bad thing happens to me.
I guess I am the most unlucky guy in this world.
When I was thinking all that, Ria stood up and said
" let's go now."
I don't know why but when she left she had a smile on her face like she was relieved.
When Ria also left, we were alone in the room and then Richy could not stop laughing,
He then stood up and said,
" You are so unlucky, man!
(pause)
But on a serious note, you missed this chance.
But brace yourself and try to confess her."
By saying that he left the room.
We went to the dining room and had our dinner. Mom made a special turkey dinner like it was Thanksgiving.
After eating dinner Ana and Ria went straight to their room saying it's getting pretty late. We should sleep now, tomorrow we have our college.
With that, they left the dining room.
I said,
" Richy, you should also go and sleep now, I'll be back after cleaning the dishes. "
After half an hour, Ana came down to fill up her bottle, I was still there cleaning dishes.
Since mom was very tired with the cooking, I took the initiative and send her to her room so that she could relax.
Ana said,
"Want some hand with dishes, "
Since it was really getting late I said,
"If it's fine with you then, sure."
She then helped me with dishes, at that time we were alone in the kitchen.
I said,
" If you don't mind, can I have your phone number," I said that casually.
But she was startled with what I said,
" I just thought we are living together and we don't have each other's contact details.
So I thought I should ask your contact.
(pause)
I am not forcing you to give, "
I said to reduce the awkwardness.
"Actually I already took your number from Mrs. Eliza, I was wondering why you were not asking my number.
Also, don't act so formally, we are friends and you can ask me anything.
See here is my number xxxxxxxxxx "she said that casually.
Inside I was jumping.
When we were done with dishes we greeted Goodnight to each other and went into our rooms.
I was laying on my bed and started thinking finally something good happened at the end of the day.
I got her contact number.
I Immediately whatsapped her, " Good Night 😴 "
She also replied " Good night, sweet dreams 😊"
When she sent me that emoji, I literally melted.
But then in my mind, I started thinking about what Richy said today in the afternoon.
I knew that I am such a coward that I cannot confess her but I wanted her to be near me.
With that I started thinking about how we first met and now where we were, it was like a fairy tale and circumstances were such that we started living together.
It's like it was written in our destiny for us to meet.
By thinking that my sleep was all vanished.
I thought why don't I try to embed all those feelings and our coincidences in a dairy.
With that, I took my diary and started writing everything.
....
( At morning )
I didn't know that today was going to be this hectic. It was a fun Stayover but many things happened in that stayover.
I never knew that I had the ability to write like this.
My writing looks like romance fiction.
Now if I read that, it looks quite interesting but I think my story can not proceed further because I don't have guts to confess Ana.
This story will be unrequited love.
----------------------------------------------------------
With that, he closed his diary and by that time it was already morning. He opened the window and could see the bright sun in a vast blue sky.
Even though he didn't sleep all night he was not tired at all, on the contrary, he was feeling light like a feather.
He woke up all night to put up his emotions inside that diary and after that he was ethereal.
And now his mindset was all changed, if Ana rejected him he will still be happy with the memories of the time he spent with her, he embedded each and every memory of her inside that diary.
Then suddenly a voice came from the kitchen,
" Kevin wake up,
wake your friends.
It's time for breakfast."
CREATORS' THOUGHTS 
Dave1302
Dave1302 I wanted to tell that till now Kevin was thinking about all those coincidences which led Ana to live with her.
Till now the story was in the first person narrative because Kevin was thinking about the past and was embedding all those feelings and emotions inside the diary. But now the narrative will be changed since he wrote all those feelings.
I hope that the change of narrative can help in elevating the novel and with that, I can easily explain the thoughts of other characters as well.
