Christopher gently pushed me away.
"Raven... You actually love me?"
"Christoper... I do."
Christoper hugged me softly. Everyone fought he isn't right for me, but we just kind of felt bond. I chose him. I sat down in the sand near our pool. But then two arms grabbed me from behind. It was my grandmother.Thinking of now, why did I invite her? She was like " Oh dear! You're big! Gimme a hug, sweetie... Guess what! Grandma brought you cookies! With homemade chocolate, as you like!" I wanted to be in Shang SimLa right now. Anywhere, but not here. Thanks for my mom, she noticed my grandmother, started hugging her and she left me alone. I turned to Christopher. He just sat on one of those chairs by the pool. As he saw me alone again, he waved me to come sit with him.
"Who was that old woman?" - he asked.
"My grandma. I must say, our family tree is weird. Her dad was kind of a grumpy, she is kind of a grumpy, my dad is kind of a grumpy, and I guess I am. She is very childish, it sometimes get under my skin. I kind of don't want to see her sometimes."
"You didn't because of me? Listen, we know each other for like 7 hours. I know, we became very good friends, but a not couple... I think we should know each other more. I don't even know if I'm worth you lose your sweet teen life. You aged up for me... I'm not worth it."
"Christopher, my mother knew you from when I lived in Riverview still. She told me about you a while ago, I know you from one corner of your soul, to another. Why we can't be a couple?"
"I don't still know you."
Those words were like a knife. He's right. 7 hours... Only? It felt like a day. But then he stood up and walked away. He kissed me, hugged me, made it to our house and now he walks away like that?! I felt like inside me a little flame of anger fights a huge flame of love. And anger is winning. But then Christopher came back, with a huge bouquet. It had one of each flower in Sunset Valley.
"Let's know each other more. What flowers do you like?"
Aaaw. He didn't just walk away, he wanted to know each other more!
"I like roses. Are you hungry?"
He nodded
I made some mac and cheese, and he really liked it. For the rest of the day, we chatted. It was like 2 AM, the next day. We were sleepy, and Christopher was too tired to go home, so there was no other chance, than to sleep in my bed.
TO BE CONTINUED!
