Why Won't You Acknowledge My Love For You?
Chapter 1
Estelle
I searched everywhere for a cheap apartment to stay but they are damn expensive!
Estelle
What am I going to do?
Estelle
I have to find a place to stay or Ivy will continue to live with them!
Estelle
Shit! It's almost 7 pm and I can't find any cheap ones!
Estelle
What am I going to do now? Ugh!
Estelle
Looks like it's going to rain..
Estelle
I hope it's not going to rain heavily-
Estelle
What am I going to do now?
Estelle
Uh.. Wait, who are you?
Alazne
Just some random person passing by and saw a girl.
Estelle
I think I saw you somewhere.
Alazne
Hm? Anyway, you don't have a home?
Alazne
I can't let you stay here, it's pretty dark and is raining, how about come stay with me until you find a place to stay?
Estelle
💭: 𝖮𝗁 𝗋𝗂𝗀𝗁𝗍! 𝖨 𝗋𝖾𝗆𝖾𝗆𝖻𝖾𝗋 𝗁𝖾𝗋!
Estelle
Oh yeah, wait.. You really are going to let me stay with you?!
Alazne
Yeah, until you find somewhere to live.
Estelle
Thank you so much!
Estelle
Hey! I'm happy you're helping me but I'm 28, not a kid!
Alazne
Haha, you're still a kid to me.
Alazne
Let's go now, my house is not that far so we'll go on foot.
Estelle
Oh right, what's your name?
Alazne
My name? It's Alazne, what's yours?
Alazne
Beautiful name you have, Estelle. [𝖲𝗆𝗂𝗅𝖾]
Estelle
[𝖥𝗅𝗎𝗌𝗁]....Thanks..
Alazne
Oh, here we are, it's pretty small though.
Estelle
Woah! Your house is beautiful! It's well organised!
Alazne
My sister did that, she always came to check on me and organise my things well..
Estelle
You have a sister? I thought you were an only child.
Alazne
Half-sister, but we tell everyone we're sisters, it doesn't really make a difference for us.
Alazne
Now you should probably take a shower and changed your clothes as they are wet, I will give you some clothes and a towel.
After searching and bringing the clothes and towel
Alazne
Here, the bathroom is over there.
Alazne
Wait, you drink tea or coffee?
Alazne
They are better for kids' growth, make you tall.
Alazne
[𝖫𝖺𝗎𝗀𝗁] Haha, sorry sorry, but what do you want to drink?
While walking to the bathroom
Estelle
And I'm already tall enough!
Estelle
Woah, I didn't know your clothes would fit me!
Alazne
It's not mine.. It's for someone else..
Alazne
Oh, don't worry! That one is new.
Alazne
We will go buy some clothes for you tomorrow.
Estelle
Sure, and can we go somewhere else too?
Estelle
I will tell you later..
Estelle
Right now I'm starving! I want to eat!
Alazne
There's banana pie, do you want-
Estelle
Do I want?! You don't need to ask twice! If I see something I like, it's going in my stomach!
Alazne
Hahaha, here. You can eat all if you want.
They had a small talk while eating
Estelle
Mhm! It was delicious!
Estelle
Who made that? Tell me the name of the bakery! I will buy some!
Alazne
Really? It was that good?
Alazne
That's good to know.
Alazne
The bakery name is "Alazne".
Estelle
Wait, you made that?!
Alazne
Yeah, I like cooking, especially cakes, desserts.
Estelle
You have to make all the cakes you know and I will taste them!
Alazne
Well, how about making one each day?
Alazne
Alright, tomorrow I will some ingredients and start making them from tomorrow.
Alazne
Now, let's go to sleep. I'm tired..
Estelle
Oh sure, where will I be sleeping?
Alazne
Sofa. There's one in the living room.
Estelle
Eh? No, you should be sleeping in the bed and me on sofa.
Alazne
No, you'll be sleeping on the bed.
Alazne
Alright alright, how about we both sleep on the bed?
Estelle
At least you'll be sleeping on the bed.
Estelle
Oh right, tomorrow can we go to where I used to live? I have to take Ivy out of there quickly.
Estelle
Yeah, she's my friend.
Alazne
Why do you want her to take her?
Estelle
She's always sticking with me, and since I left she must not be feeling well. And the others might hate her because of me..
Alazne
What did you even do to them anyway?
Estelle
Uh.. That part is for another time.. But can you help me?
Alazne
I want to but where will she live? There's not even enough place here?
Alazne
And I'd feel bad if she's sleeping on the sofa..
Alazne
My sister can help though.
Alazne
Her dad owns a hotel, she have a room there but she rarely stays there, I can just ask her if your friend can stay there.
Estelle
Where does she live then?
Alazne
Um..Some places? That's not important..
Estelle
Oh, alright then, but how much is it?
Alazne
For free of course.
Alazne
Well, I should ask her to tell her dad.
Estelle
Isn't he your dad too?
Alazne
No, my father married her mother.
Alazne
Yeah, but our parents are friends and we have a good relationship with all of them.
Alazne
Now that everything is solved, shall we go sleep?
Estelle
Good night Alazne!
Alazne
Good night, Estelle.

[𝖸𝖺𝗐𝗇] 💭: 𝖧𝗆? 𝖠𝗅𝖺𝗓𝗇𝖾 𝖺𝗅𝗋𝖾𝖺𝖽𝗒 𝗐𝗈𝗄𝖾 𝗎𝗉?
Estelle
I should get up too then.
After going out of the bedroom
Estelle
It's still 7:30, where could she go this early morning?
Alazne

Estelle
Hm? [𝖱𝗎𝖻 𝗁𝖾𝗋 𝖾𝗒𝖾𝗌]
Estelle
Where the hell were you?!
Alazne
I went somewhere.. Were you waiting for me?
Estelle
Obviously! I thought you left me here alone and disappeared after taking me in!
Alazne
Sorry.. I should have left a note..
Alazne
[𝖲𝗍𝗋𝗈𝗄𝖾 𝗁𝖾𝗋 𝗁𝖺𝗂𝗋 𝗀𝖾𝗇𝗍𝗅𝗒] I will tell you before go somewhere from now, sorry to make you worry..
Estelle
[𝖥𝗅𝗎𝗌𝗁] I'm going to brush my teeth!
Estelle
[𝖶𝖺𝗅𝗄 𝖺𝗐𝖺𝗒 𝗊𝗎𝗂𝖼𝗄𝗅𝗒]
Alazne
Well, I should make breakfast now.
Alazne
They gave me 2 breadfruits, I should boil one for today.
Estelle
What are you making?
Alazne
Breadfruit, you like them?
Estelle
Then yes! I love them!
Estelle
Haven't eat one for a long time!
Alazne
It will be ready in some minutes, I will serve the tea in the meantime.
Estelle
I will do it! You shouldn't do all the things yourself, let me help!
Alazne
Alright then, thanks.
Alazne
It's ready, let me get the butter.
Alazne
Here, let's eat now.
Estelle
Mhm! I wanted to eat that for so long!
Alazne
There's one more, we can make another thing with that one.
Estelle
Ooh! My mom used to fry them! Banana too! It was so delicious with chilli sauce and mayonnaise!
Alazne
Right! I still do that sometimes, but it's no fun eating alone.
Estelle
How about we do that?! Since you made that today, we can fry this one another day and eat together!
After talking and having breakfast
Alazne
Oh, you should get ready, we'll have to buy clothes for you today, and also have to get your friend.
Estelle
Right! I forgot, haha..
Alazne
Hah.. Oh and my sister will come later, when we go take your friend, she'll be there waiting.
Alazne
Just tell me the address and I will tell her.
Alazne
You should take a shower then dress up, we will go after.
Alazne
You sure take a lot of time getting ready.
Alazne
I will take a few things then we are set to go.
Alazne
Hm? No, I have a car.
Estelle
Ooh~ I didn't know! Let's go!
After getting in the car and just talking casually
Estelle
Oh right, where were you in the morning?
Alazne
I went to see the neighbours, a grandpa and grandma, I usually help them everyday when I have time.
Alazne
They are the one who gave me the breadfruits.
Estelle
Really? Ah, I should go meet them sometimes! And also thanks them! We had an amazing breakfast thanks to them!
Alazne
You can meet them tomorrow.
Alazne
So, what kind of clothes you like? Dresses, skirts, jeans, leggings?
Estelle
I like all, but leggings and jeans more!
20 minutes have passed while they were talking
Estelle
Yay! I wanted to come for a while now! I missed you "La Croisette"!
<ʟᴀ ᴄʀᴏɪsᴇᴛᴛᴇ ɪs ᴀ ᴍᴀʟʟ ɪɴ ᴍᴀᴜʀɪᴛɪᴜs>
Estelle

Chapter 3
Estelle
Hey! Look at that dress! It's beautiful!
Estelle
No nevermind, it's expensive.
Alazne
Forget about that, you want it, right?
Alazne
Then I will buy it for you, let's go see more clothes, just one dress isn't enough.
Estelle
You don't need to do that, I can buy my clothes!
Alazne
You have to save money for your new home remember? So, let me pay.
Estelle
Uhm.. Alazne, thank you for buying them..
Estelle
I'm grateful! And I will pay you back when I have money!
Alazne
[𝖤𝗒𝖾𝗌 𝗐𝗂𝖽𝖾𝗇𝖾𝖽] [𝖲𝗆𝗂𝗅𝖾]
Estelle
Hey! What's funny?! I'm serious!
Alazne

Alazne
Nothing, what do you want to eat?
Estelle
I can eat anything, so you can decide.
Alazne
Okay, search for a place where we can eat while I order.
Alazne
I ordered 1 large pizza and 1 small.
Alazne
Chicken mayo and bbq.
Estelle
Mhm! I saw that they are selling panipuri over there, we should go eat it after!
Estelle
Woah, there are many kids here.
Alazne
Since there's a playground for kids, then of course there would be.
Estelle
[𝖨𝗇 𝖺 𝗅𝗈𝗐 𝗏𝗈𝗂𝖼𝖾] I want...
Alazne
I didn't hear you, you want to play?
Estelle
Yes! A kid! They are cute!
Alazne
Shall we both go adopt one then?
Alazne
💭: 𝖨𝗍'𝗌 𝖿𝗎𝗇 𝗍𝖾𝖺𝗌𝗂𝗇𝗀 𝗁𝖾𝗋, 𝗁𝖺𝗁𝖺.
Alazne
I'm just kidding, relax.
Estelle
Hah.. I thought you were serious.. What a shame..
Estelle
You heard me very well and clear..
Alazne
Haha.. You're interesting..
Alazne
Shh.. You're being loud, you'll scare the kids.
Estelle
Nevermind, since you bought clothes for me, I will tolerate you just for today!
Alazne
I think it's ready now, I will go take it.
Estelle
I will come help you.
Alazne
Stay here, someone might take our table.
Estelle
You're right.. Alright, I will stay.
After Alazne went to take the food

Alazne
Shit, I was away for some minutes and she disappeared.
Alazne
Shit, you scared me!
Alazne
[𝖲𝖾𝖾𝗌 𝖺𝗇𝗈𝗍𝗁𝖾𝗋 𝗉𝖾𝗋𝗌𝗈𝗇]
Alazne
Oh, nevermind, I already know.
Alazne
Well, since you're here, please do me a service.
Eilish
I don't have time, plus I'm already helping you with the other thing.
Alazne
Well you can't help me with that unless I find the person who knows where her friend is living.
Alazne
The one asking for help just disappeared.
Eilish
That's why you're panicking? Well, what can I do?
Alazne
Stay here, just here near the table. Don't let anyone take the table.
Eilish
Laz, you don't ever change.
Alazne
Forget that, just watch the table for us.
Alazne
I will be quick, if I manage to find her that is.
Irie
But we didn't order anything.
Irie
Aren't we supposed to watch over the table so that no one can take it?
Eilish
Yeah but she didn't say we cannot eat the pizza, did she?
Eilish
Right, so let's eat! I'm hungry.
Irie
I'm going to buy a drink.
Eilish
Buy one for me, I can't eat everything, should left some for them.
