Chapter 3

What? Did I miss any spots while applying the sunscreen to you?" I asked, but he just kept staring at me.

He shakes his head and lets go of my hands, then gets up.

"Thanks," he says and begins heading towards the entrance door to leave.

"You leaving?" I asked as I slowly walked towards him.

He turned to me raising a brow.

"I mean... I don't even know your name yet" I said quickly but he just chuckled which was the best sight I have ever seen in my life.

"My name is Song Jin-seo. That's if a foreigner like you would remember" he says with a soft smile as he shoved his hands into his jean pockets and walked out the door.

I quickly went after him opening the door and saw him still walking with his hoodie now on as he went down the stairs "Song Jin-seo!!!" I called out and he turned back to look at me then his frown changed to a smile. Gosh, that smile is killing me, I just love that smile.

"I am not sure if vampires also eat human food, but if they do, I hope you don't drink anyone's blood and come have breakfast at my place"

He simply smiled being all mature and different from the stranger who had barged in yesterday.

"I already had breakfast," he says

"Huh? When? How?"

He just smirked and pointed at his lips as he rested on the wall, tilting his head to look at me.

"That little kiss you gave me, already filled me up," he says with a wink and my cheeks turn hot. So he took that little peck seriously.

"But I will come for lunch," he said and I could only nod.

I was still trying hard not to blush, his being too charming right now.

"See you," he says, walking back down the stairs.

I closed the door and rested on it to keep me from falling. His words affected me this much "omggggg he is just toooo cute" I squealed as I blushed really hard against my palm. I remembered the kiss and blushed even harder "There is nothing to it Angela so chill" I said to myself to calm my racing heart.

ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ

I cleaned up the house then went to the bathroom to bathe, after that I went out to the breakfast café to have my breakfast.

I was done having my breakfast I was so lucky to have survived all the stares from all the people in the restaurant. Jeez, I began heading home before my phone rang finally it was Katrina calling.

I picked up, and she was all in tears crying so hard over the phone I asked what was wrong, and she began apologizing about leaving me behind, saying she and Janice thought I was right behind them and in another aeroplane and didn't know I was stuck in traffic.

She cried even more and I calmed her down "Actually I am doing fine Kate, just some drama has been happening that's all," I said remembering that hot stranger.

"I wish I were there with you," she said and I smiled to myself already imagining it.

"Angela" she called

"Yeah?"

"You Jenice and I got admission into the same college that we had applied for in Abuja. You were given a full-time scholarship because of your very impressive results" she announced and I screamed in excitement scaring some people in the street.

"omg!! That's wonderful news, finally we all got admission!" I squealed with a lot of happiness but realised that she had been quiet all through after breaking the news. Just then my smile fell.

"Kate, aren't you happy," I asked almost in a trembling voice as I felt like all my happiness would be flushed out in a second.

"I am" she replied

"But..." she continued as u heard the cry she was trynna hold in deep in her voice.

"But the school is actually taking all new students in next tomorrow and you won't be around. Dad said they are very strict so after tomorrow, they won't be taking in any more students and there isn't a certain date of your return which means u might have to wait till next year to get an admission" she said and finally began to cry again while I collapsed on the floor outside the café. My phone fell from my hands and tears began to fill my eyes.

Now people watched me like a widow who had just got the news that her children had died in an accident.

For a moment I couldn’t move from the shock. My friend, my two best friends are leaving me and even going to school without me.

We have been together since we were kids we....we can't just separate! No!

"Angela" she called from the end of the line but I didn't answer.

I just took the phone, hung up, and ran home.

When I arrived home, I fell to the sitting room floor and began to cry loudly this time.

Why do I have to be stuck here?

That is my dream university we are talking about.

I wept louder "My friends would be in school while I would be here doing nothing and I don't even know how long," I said to myself amidst tears wishing my mum was here to yell for me and hug me.

I needed comfort so bad.

Someone opened the door and I quickly sprang up cleaning my tears and cursing for not locking the door behind me after coming in.

I turned towards the door and found the cute stranger right before me, i instantly forgot all my problems as I stared speechlessly at how good he looked. He was wearing a white turtle-neckwhite jeans with a red coat over it and red sneakers.

His red dyed hair was falling over his forehead in messy neat strands.

He just looked so breathtaking right now.

"Hello,", he said as he closed the door behind him.

"I came for the promised..." he was saying as he turned to me, but his words just died as his eyes stopped on me.

"Why were you crying?" he asked as he stepped closer

I cleaned my tears which I was sure I had cleaned properly as I sniffed

"Did anyone touch you?" he asked in a deep voice as his face darkened for some reason.

"No one, I am actually okay really"

"You are lying," He said plainly as he walked closer to me and was now right in front of me. Looking into my eyes.

"Your eyes say it all. You're sad, because your two best friends are going to college and you won't be able to join them because of the sudden strike which caused all the airports to lock down"

He says and I gasp in shock reversing my step slowly.

"How did you know that?" I asked but he only smiled

"Your eyes are just too transparent, they can let you down when it comes to keeping a secret"

He can read eyes? That's kind of disturbing.

I quickly cleared my thoughts as I walked up to him

"So tell me, how old are you?" he asked

"Eighteen, what about u? Like a hundred and something or so," I asked as I followed him to the kitchen. He smiles.

"Nice one, but I am just nineteen"

"Just?" I scoffed

He chuckled as he opened the refrigerator and brought out some vegetables keeping them on the island.

"Ummm.. what are you doing?" I asked raising a brow in question.

He takes off his red jacket and hands it over to me.

"Can u help me hang it?" he says as I take it from him.

I hold it close to me and that same nice scent made me almost visibly sniff it more right in front of him.

"Can you tell me what you're doing?" I asked again

"Cooking, what else"

"Why? You're a guest, it won't be proper for you to do the cooking plus I was the one who promised you lunch" I quickly said feeling very much guilty.

"Chill, I understand, but I am the one offering to cook you something especially after what your eyes just told me," he said and I looked at him for a while feeling a bit guilty but really touched.

"ahhh, fine but know that what happened doesn't mean I am weak," I said with a pout

"Sure" he chuckled

"And at least wear an apron" I added as I took the red apron by the refrigerator and he stopped his cutting then faced me and I put it on him then went behind him and noted it.

"There you go now you can cook, and I can assist you," I said with a bright smile.

"Nahhhh just go rest I know you're tired," he said with a cute smile and I almost felt like giving him a tight hug.

I was exhausted no kidding, my legs were feeling weak. I ran all the way back home without stopping just so I won't cry on the way till I get home.

"Thanks, I will make it up to you," I said as I yawned and walked to my room immediately falling on my bed, and blacking out.
