Chapter Two

Yes, I like you….

"Are you waiting for someone, Katrina?" My mom asked.

"Yeah, and I hope he will come." I answered.

Today is Monday, and it's my birthday. Mom baked some chocolate chip cookies, and also a Rocky Rode cake. She asked a bakery how to make that cake, and thank God, she managed to bake the cake correctly. Mom ordered pizza, spaghetti and chicken. Anyway, all my friends and old classmate came. They have been so thoughtful they even asked me if I had a boyfriend. I shook my head shly. They began getting angry at me. They said I'm on the right age to pick the perfect for me.

"Katrina, I'll just leave you for a moment. I still need to clean the table." Mom said then walked away.

I gaze at the window. Flower's surrounded our yard. Then I notice someone looking at me behind a pine tree.

A boy.

Then I notice, the blonde hair.

Erick!

When he notice me looking at him he hid behind the pine tree. I rushed outside. When I got nearer the pine tree I decided I should look at the back if Erick, is still there. Yes he is. He waved nervously at me.

"What's the matter with you?" I asked him.

"Nothing, really." He answered, seriously.

"Why are you hiding? Are you shy?" I asked, again.

"Err…yes I am. Anyway, Happy Birthday, Katrina." He said smiling.

"Thanks. Let's go inside. The party is about to start." I said, then grabbed his hands gently.

I opened the door. Everyone stared at me then began greeting me 'Happy Birthday', but stopped. They stared behind me giving me a puzzle look. Yes. They are looking at Erick, who was waving.

"Who I that?" Elaine, my best friend asked pointing at Erick.

"Your boyfriend?" Leobert, one of my friends asked.

Everyone giggled before they started laughing crazily. But they stopped laughing when I started introducing Erick.

"This is Erick, my friend. I met him in the beach. He's really nice." I started.

"HEY! I CAME HERE FOR THE FOOD, NOT TO INTRODUCE THAT HANDSOME GUY HERE!" someone joked.

"Not a problem. Let's start our party."

"Happy Birthday Katrina!" said Elaine, before handing me a small blue box.

"Thank you Elaine. Can I open it right now?" I asked.

"Sure. What can I do? It's yours anyway." She said.

I began opening the blue box. My eyes glowed when I saw what's inside.

Inside it was a necklace, with its pendant is a crystal. It's shinning and very beautiful.

"Thanks Elaine. I saw this necklace before. I like to buy it but it was too expensive. But look right now, my best friend gave me the most beautiful necklace." I said smiling.

"Sure, sure. Hey that necklace isn't ordinary." Elaine said. "It can protect you from any bad spirit when you need to. That's why it's expensive, I heard."

"Well, that's great. You know I------" I was interrupted when Erick grabbed my hand gently.

"Pardon me." He said then pulled me towards our yard. When he saw that no one else is in the yard, he let go off my hand.

"Why?" I asked.

"I've got to tell you something." He said.

"And what is it?"

"I….like you. That's what I wanted to say. Do you like me too?" he asked.

My eyes widened. I was about to say no, but I felt cupid put his arrow on my heart.

"Yes, I like you." I answered.

Then he hugged me. Tight.

I really don't want to be hugged.

Then I heared a voice.

A female.

Whispering at my ear. "No, tell him you don't like him! He had a bad plan! Don't fall for his trap!" it whispered.

I shook my head, trying not to hear the voice. Somehow it stopped. I won't refuse. Besides, what could happen? What could happen?
