Chap 7

"Harlyn?" You turn to the other side. He's gone. "It's funny how cold the surrounding was when he's around but, back to normal once he left... Hmmm."


You hear the pounding sound at the door. "HELENA! OPEN THE DOOR!" It's 730 am yet your mum already yelling at you. "wait a second!!"


"Go get dress up because we're going out after this! Your dada agree to go with us!!" Never have dad agree to go shopping with you and your mum. Pretty sure  your mum force him...


"Okay."


You hate getting up early. The sun ray from the outside somehow irritates you. While dragging your feet to walk to the bathroom, you can't stop yawning. "I hate this! Ughhh!"


After the shower, you put on your yellow sundress. "Darling! Are you ready??" She asked from across the room. "Not yet!" You said. "Okay!! I'll be waiting in the car!!" You take your purse and close your room door. As you're downstairs, you try to find your flat shoes and locked the main door.


"Dad. I'm so happy that you want to join us." He sighed and look at you through the car rear mirror. "Yes, of course! Anything for you, sweetheart." He said.


Harlyn : I wonder what you're going to wear tonight. x


"Gosh, Lena, do you hear me?" You startled at that voice. "I'm mum..." She grinned and "Then repeat what I just said. I'm sure you don't pay attention with what I said..."


"Let her be. She's in her own world and madly in love." Your dad teased you. You try to ignore whatever upcoming texts or calls from anyone. But, you know, you get bored easily and makes you want to stick with your phone always. "She fell head over heels for Harlyn. Ahh, young love."


"That was us." Your mum said.


She seens like she's having flashbacks of her love life with dad. "Honey. Young love is the reason why I'd do anything even the world is against us... Even if this is the hardest decision I ever made in my life." Your mum put her hand on dad's thigh. You can see the spark of love from them.


"We used to sneak out and funny how, we only met at the midnight. We were once midnight lovers..."


Midnight lovers?


"Hun, i felt like an idiot, because I fell in love with you, and how I got blinded by it. Even though, I've no clue how does it really feels like to love someone by heart." He added. "Ahem, ahem. Sorry to interrupt but I feel so lonely at the back." You said. Both of your parents laughed. "You're going to be like us. Trust me." Dad said, still his eyes focusing on the road.


"I'll drop both of you here, okay?"


You and your mum get out of the car. "Mum, I'm going to h&m!" Your mum nodded. She still at her favorite store and she doesn't care where are you going anyway. "This could be." You decide to try it first before buying it. It's a maroon floral dress. It's simple but elegant. That's your style anyway.


When you're bout to pay, you saw Harlyn walking with a guy. "Hey." You said. "Helena." He said. "So, you do? I mean, shopping?" You asked. A guy that's besides him let out a little laugh. "Of course, young lady. By the way, I'm Halston,Harlyn's older brother." He introduced himself to you.


"Hi, Halston?"


"I like her, dude. She's cute." He chuckled and Harlyn looks a bit annoyed at him. "Wait, did I smell jealousy?" He added. You can see Harlyn almost lost his temper again.


"Stop it. She's my girl back off."


You're not official yet but the fact that he called you his girl melts your heart. That's probably the cutest thing someone ever said to you. "Harlyn. You can't chill? Don't you??"


"I can but, when it comes to you, I can't."


"Wow, that's hot." You said, quietly.


"I heard that, Elena!"


"Come on, don't you think guys look hot when they're mad? Especially when someone try mess with his girl? Urm, kinda."


"It's hot but, not until he start to kill that person. That's the scariest part... And if you ask me, I'd killed anyone, even my family, if they try to mess with you, uh, my girl..."
