The dinner was nice. Everything was so delicious, but I couldn't utter a word during the entire time we had dinner.
1005Please respect copyright.PENANASCI7RLnTh7
Even after dinner was finished, I couldn't say thank you to Rachel's mom who had become very tired with preparing all those amazing and delicious dishes for us.
1005Please respect copyright.PENANAhheGB1ICGz
The reason of my silence was unknown to me. Maybe it was because I didn't feel like talking, no matter how much Rachel and her parents asked me questions and tried to make a conversation with me.
1005Please respect copyright.PENANAU3jbF18wYE
Rachel gave up, and was soon deep in her own thoughts, silent like me.
1005Please respect copyright.PENANAxaONq39VFm
Nathan was like himself, not talking much, and not being silent much.
1005Please respect copyright.PENANA8LKBAO3wM9
However Dave and Rachel's parents were talking about nearly everything.
1005Please respect copyright.PENANA6PKfNDbDPf
I couldn't help but think of what happened today before we came to the Evans's house. And I felt extremely embarrassed that I had changed into my pajamas ( my worst ones) instead of my yellow floral dress.
1005Please respect copyright.PENANAwfuRMhYIR4
What has gotten into me?
1005Please respect copyright.PENANAjSYwZRowkj
First I hear unexpected imaginary voices in my head, then I mistakenly change into my worst pajamas. I know, Emma hurt me a lot, but I don't think I have thought about her today. So why was I hearing her voice in my head now and then?
1005Please respect copyright.PENANA9FbT0kK9PB
"Jessie, dear?" I looked up from the large strawberry cake in front of me and stared at Mrs. Evans.
1005Please respect copyright.PENANAuNiM3Oxvd0
"Yes?" I said. My voice sounding weird to my ears, maybe because I haven't talked for a while.
1005Please respect copyright.PENANAvXtJd3Oaug
"Why do you keep staring at the desert instead of eating them?" Mrs. Evans asked with a polite, sweet smile on her face.
1005Please respect copyright.PENANAtzON7PgsW5
"Oh. I was... daydreaming" I admitted. Feeling my face flush under Mrs. Evan's stare.
1005Please respect copyright.PENANAOajjQjiKhI
"Eat some, my dear. Here..." She cut the chocolate cake in front of Dave, with a large knife. And put the delicious looking piece of cake on the plate in front of me. "I baked this for you, I knew it's your favorite"
1005Please respect copyright.PENANAKm23U37PNp
"Thank you" I mumbled and smiled. Finally there was a sincere smile on my face. I licked my lips and grabbed my fork, then I dug into the piece of cake in front me, and savored its taste.
1005Please respect copyright.PENANADeg3lAiIvS
I loved Mrs. Evan's cakes and sweets. They melted in my mouth, without a try.
1005Please respect copyright.PENANA7WLzYbt9dz
"I was the one who told her its your favorite" Rachel grinned from ear to ear.
1005Please respect copyright.PENANA7IxZLC4MXG
"I know it's you" I mumbled and smiled at my best friend.
1005Please respect copyright.PENANA3cRBzI4Baz
Who would want a friend like Emma ? When I have Rachel.
1005Please respect copyright.PENANA82gepNDuj4
Okay, maybe I'm lying to myself. Maybe I'm very hurt by Emma after all.
1005Please respect copyright.PENANAYZJxcTMrVD
"Nathan?" Rachel called her brother.
1005Please respect copyright.PENANABc31wygOeR
"Mm" Nathan mumbled, since his mouth was full of his mom's cooked biscuits.
1005Please respect copyright.PENANACovHECwwHp
"Umm... When will you go back to Florida?" Rachel asked, her eyes twinkling from excitement and nervousness. An expression I knew very well.
1005Please respect copyright.PENANAdLNwJ8SfON
Nathan frowned, and stared at his sister for a few seconds before answering. "Why... are you asking?"
1005Please respect copyright.PENANAcD6mPVK46X
"I'm just asking." She shrugged, "I missed you, you know."
1005Please respect copyright.PENANA1ROKk6pudu
"I missed you too, guys." Nathan muttered, "I don't know when I'll be back, it depends on my research..."
1005Please respect copyright.PENANAh4T2IoUdfl
"Oh" Rachel mumbled. Staring at the plate in front of her, deep in thought again.
1005Please respect copyright.PENANAlCqrKhm4Pj
Nathan stared at her suspiciously, but didn't ask further questions.
1005Please respect copyright.PENANA1IqdUfRRcb
Dave was staring at Rachel too. But not the way Nathan was staring at her. His face was glowing, and he fixed his eyes on her more than normal. And more than once.
1005Please respect copyright.PENANAw1MlyX8YGp
Then it hit me.
1005Please respect copyright.PENANAVRkAbT6Crt
Dave likes Rachel.
1005Please respect copyright.PENANAdpLi58KlUk
And that stupid girl, not only doesn't have any idea about it, but also belittled poor Dave and doesn't like him.
1005Please respect copyright.PENANAf0gp6LsKKU
I think I should tell her. Since I have made too many problems by not saying anything. I should open my mouth this time, and say something
1005Please respect copyright.PENANA8ZHL1QtROW
But... On the other hand, it's none of my business.
1005Please respect copyright.PENANAzlxJ7m5OrW
Rachel doesn't care about Dave anyways, Dave might get hurt if I say anything about the matter. Also maybe I'm mistaken. Like how I was wrong when it came to Samuel Davies's feelings for me.
1005Please respect copyright.PENANAHCK1V93QHm
I'll just pretend I haven't felt anything regarding Dave's crush for my friend.
1005Please respect copyright.PENANATfArIcprcQ
Yeah. That's for the better.
