Hey guys! I am back with a new chapter. Thank you soo much for your support. And j hope we cross 100 from this chapter. Enjoy reading and please leave a review.
Thursday came and Sophia was found sleeping in her double bed, sprawled all over it . A pillow clenched tightly in her embrace with her legs tangled in the sheets. For the last two-three days it was Crystal's duty to wake her cousin up for school. Which is an impossible task. But not as quite as Tyson's. A floor would come or a storm would blow his house away and he'll be still sleeping. Crystal had a key for their suite till Kai comes back.
She made her way toward their room and without bothering to knock, entered it. She shook her head when she saw the position her cousin was in. She went toward her bed and shook her 3 times.
" Sophia I am gonna dump water on you now!" She warned but the answer she got was just a 'go away'. Suddenly a bulb went off in her head. She went towards the door , opened it and made it sound like someone entered the room and then after closing it she came back toward the door.
Then she screamed. Literally, " KAIIIII! YOU CAME BACK EARLY!" And that did the trick. Sophia was up in a second looking frantically here and there.
" Kai! Kai where is he?" She asked in a groggily hurried voice.
When Crystal started laughing, Sophia looked at her confused as to why she was laughing.
" It worked! It actually worked. You are so naive." When Sophia shot her a look which clearly said what-the-hell-are-you-talking-about she elaborated, " I did that just to wake you up. And it actually worked. "
Sophia smacked her with a pillow on her face and made a satisfied sound when she uttered an 'oww'. Sophia didn't find the situation even remotely funny so she simply got up and went to the bathroom ignoring Crystal who was saying that if she stayed in shower too long she will be late for school.
And she was late by ten minutes. When she threw open the door of her classroom, pausing her teacher in writing a formula unit and all the glass to look at her while Crystal just rolled her eyes and mouthed 'I told you so '. Her teacher ignored her as this was a routine and she was tired of giving her detention. She smiled sheepishly and made her way towards her seat. She put her books on Kai's chair and attempted her best to focus on her teacher instead of daydreaming. But that turned out to be an impossible task. Soon she was lost in the dreams of her own.
It was lunch time and all the beybladers were sitting at their table with Matteo and his brother, Liam. Liam was a year senior from them with sea blue eyes and brown hair, tall, tanned and built. Basically included in the list of hottest school boys.
Matteo was staring at Sophia, comprehending why she was waiting for that blue haired dude and why was she eager for it. And let me tell you was Sophia eager for it? Well, you have no idea. She is practically beaming that only two days are left till he comes back. He snapped out of his reverie when a round of applause suddenly errupted from the table and he looked up to see a beet red Sophia gazing at her phone. He leaned in to see what caused her to blush and saw a text from Kai. Which said:
Kai: Just checking to see if you woke up. I don't want to come and see you in a detention. Coming back soon ;)
Matteo scowled at the reply Sophia typed,
Sophia: I woke up late again :P and waiting for you. Missing you :)
" Sophia come with me for a minute," said Matteo as his chair scraped when he got up. Sophia was too happy to notice the serious tone of her best friend. She followed him to an empty classroom and jumped when Matteo closed the door too hard.
" What happened Mattie?" Inquired Sophia as she got worried about her friend's behaviour.
" Sophia what is going on between you And Hiwatari?" He got straight to the point.
Sophia blushed, ducked her head and stuttered, " What... what are you talking about?"
" Sophia you know exactly what I am talking about," he tipped her head up and looked in her eyes and Sophia was touched to see worry, a little anger and if she was not mistaken, hurt swirling in his eyes, " Do.. do you like him?" He asked in a soft voice.
" I.. I don't know Mattie. " Came her sincere answer, " I just get this stupid smile when I see him but I don't even know him well," ( Ezbl : remember something Uno;) )
" Just be careful. And remember I am always here. For you. " Just for you. He thought in his head and he opened his arms to envelop Sophia in a big hug. She melted against him and put her arms around him as well.
They went back to the cafeteria and resumed their lunch. Others shot them weird and suspicious glances but they ignored it.
Two Days Later:
Unlike every other day, Sophia was wide awake, in shower washing her sleep off. She got up at 6 and she barely slept all night. Excited and full of glee because Kai was finally coming back. She came out of shower, got dressed in a pretty baby pink boat neck shirt with black and white glitter in the middle, with black jeans and her hair in a ponytail, some strands framing her face. Her glasses blocking the full beauty of her eyes but still looking great.
She was going to meet Kai at the airport. And only she was going. Kai was coming at 9 and it was 8. When she was exiting and locking her suite, she met Crystal who was looking very sleepy but still dressed in her uniform and in a hurry.
" Why are you late?" Sophia asked amused as Crystal tried to lock her room with books in one hands and a water bottle in the other.
" Me and Tala were up till 2," At that Sophia raised suggestive eyebrows to which Crystal scoffed. If Crystal has done that, Sophia would have blushed 100 shades of red on her implementation. While Crystal just scoffed and said, " As if. We were watching movies."
They began making their way toward the school, so Sophia can go to the airport and Crystal to her started to hum. On their way, Crystal asked, " Why are you so cheery?"
When Sophia just grinned and blushed, Crystal immediately knew that, " Kai's coming back today."
Sophia's grin got bigger and her blush intensified. She nodded her feeling giddy and her stomach full of butterflies with anticipation. Crystal shot her a look which clearly said 'You-are-hopeless.' And said " Best of Luck" before going to her own hall.
Sophia left the school and After grabbing a muffin and coffee from the nearest coffee shop she was there at 8:45. Eating the muffin and her creamy coffee, she looked at her watch and realized it 9:05. 'Yes he would have landed by now' she thought and smiled in her muffin.
Just as she thought that, her phone started ringing. She reached in the back pocket of her jeans and materialized her phone. Her face lit up like a child when she saw it was Kai. She immediately took the call and put her old iphone 4s to her ear.
" Hello!" She said enthusiastically.
" Hey," His deep tone sent shivers down her spine but she suspected the sad tone behind it and knew immediately that something was wrong.
" Have you landed?" Despite of the bad feeling, she kept her tone cheery.
" Uh about that, actually that's what I called you about?"
" What happened?" She asked the cheery tone dissipating a little.
" I can't come. "
She was dumbstruck. Really. After a long pause, she managed to say in a small voice, " Why?"
" It's... just something came up."
" Okay." And that was it. No goodbye, it's okay, or even telling him that she was at the airport waiting for him, just an okay.
She was sad. That much was obvious. But what Sophia didn't know was that she was too much sad until a lone tear slid from her left eye slowly. She wiped it with the back of her hand but it was useless because another fell just at the moment.
She was too emotional for her own good. And that was the reason she was crying. That's it. She tried her best to convince herself with that.
END OF CHAPTER!
Okay guys I hope you like it. I am late but that was the fastest I was able to do so. So kind of sad ending.
