My girl Neighbour -S01 E22

Read Story: SEASON 1 EPISODE 22

It's the first day of school and if only I have a choice I will skip it.

I haven't been sleeping properly for the past few nights as my mind was occupied by the brown haired girl next door.

It's been days since I left Emma on her house and had an intimate moment with her. I wanted to see her so bad I wanna cry. But I know she needed space, space to figure things out.

"Jennifer!!! You're gonna be late!"

I hate it when my Mom calls me that, it's too formal.

I made a final glance at the mirror before heading downstairs.

I wore a simple grey dress, knee length with slits on both sides. The weather today is just beautiful, it's a bit windy but not that cold.

"J-E-N-N-I-F-E-R!!!!"

"My gawddd, Mom! Why do you have to shout like that? Its 06:30 in the morning, you could've woken up the whole building!"

I was on the stairs and almost slipped when I heard her scream my name.

"And could you please, please don't call me Jennifer."

"You're gonna be late, Jennifer."

Ughhh, I hate my Mom sometimes. She's such a tease.

I glared at her smiling face.

I'm a tease too but I'm a no match to her.

I walk towards the dining and sat to eat my breakfast.

"Mom, I know it's my first day back, but my school is just 4 blocks away, I'm not gonna be late, ok?"

Yeah, I live near my school which is great for me coz I don't have to wake up few minutes early, yes folks every minute of my sleep is important. I think I speak on behalf of all the students when I say that.

I was still savoring my bacon when my Mom took my plate away.

WTH?

"I know it's is just 4 blocks away, Jennifer. But your Dad borrowed your car today so you're gonna have to walk to school. So hurry."

"What? Why? Where's his car? Can you take me to school? I don't want to walk and ..."

Before I could say anything else the house is filled with my Mom's laughter.

What's so funny?

"Ohh good god, I can't remember the last time I laughed like that."

I looked at her in disbelief, she was wiping the corner of her eyes as if there really are tears.

"What's so funny, Mom? Now I'm gonna be late."

I can't believe she's still laughing.

"That's what I was telling you few times now, Hon. And I can't drive you, your Aunt Is coming over now. So please go and hurry and I suggest you jog to school so you won't be late on your first day." She giggled before she turned her back to the sink with plates on her hand.

I stomped towards the door feeling annoyed, I already hate going to school and now I have to walk.

I shut the door loudly as I heard my Mom still laughing.

"Grumpy much?"

"Holy sh—"

I jumped myself up when I heard someone speak.

"It's too early for that word, Jen."

I'm not sure how to react on that, the girl I'm constantly thinking about is in front of me.

Looking gorgeous as ever with her office attire, her smell so intoxicating, I am officially addicted to this girl.

"H-Hi Em, Good morning."

To my surprise, she touched my eyebrows like she's straightening it or something. As a reflex, I reached for her hand and tried to stop whatever she's doing.

We are staring at each other, holding each other's hand, being late in school completely wiped out of my mind. All I can think is the girl in front of me and the hand I was holding, the sensation it's giving me, the tingling in my stomach as our skin touched, I wonder if she feels it too.

As if on cue, she took her hand back. She regained herself very quickly

"You are frowning and it's early in the morning."

That made me smile, and realize that my eyebrows furrowed and she's trying to straighten it.

When my eyes suddenly darted to her wristwatch and saw the time, realization hits me.

"Damn, I'm gonna be late!"

"Calm down, you need what, 2-3 minutes to reach school?"

I was walking fast now and even if I hate school I can't afford to be late on my first day.

I turned my face to her as I reached outside our building.

"I don't have a car today so I'm gonna have to walk to school ... or run, see you Emma."

I was about to turn and run when she holds my arm and stopped me.

"Come, I'll take you to school."

Dumbfounded by what she said, moving seems to be hard for me. She literally had to pull me to walk to her car.

"Hop in."

I climbed up to her car and seated carefully.

I feel weird and a bit awkward though I was silently thanking my Dad for borrowing my car, it was a good day to start school after all.

In my peripheral vision, I saw Emma started the car and turned her face to me for a sec but didn't say anything.

I wanted to talk to her or just make a small chat but I'm not sure what to say to her.

It's not like before I kissed her, everything was perfect. Now, I don't even know how to start a conversation with her.

I was deep down in my thoughts when I felt the car stopped, I'm in front of my school already.

"Thanks, Em."

As I bid my goodbye to her, she spoke.

"Jen, can you please come over later at dinner? I just wanted to talk and ... I miss your cooking."

She was smiling at me, like the kind of smile that is so hard to say no to. And I felt my heart smile as well.
