My girl Neighbour -S01 E24

Read Story: SEASON 1 EPISODE 24

"Where the hell are you?"

I'm not mad, well maybe a little bit.

I've been trying to reach her since this morning and now school time is over, she finally answers the phone.

"Calm down tiger, I'm at home. I don't feel well."

Sam's voice was a little raspy, she's sick and now I felt guilty for shouting at her on the phone.

"Ohh. Sorry, I didn't know."

"It's fine, so how's school?"

"Oh well, it's boring, same old, same old." I wanted to tell her about Kate but I think that can wait.

Anyways, she didn't know the whole story, she just know that we had a misunderstanding and part ways.

"You should take a rest, Sam. Hope you feel better."

"O'right. I'll see you soon, Monkey."

I love it when she calls me nicknames.

I hanged up the phone and continued walking when a car stopped by.

"Hey, where's your car?"

Of all people. I almost say it out loud.

"Hey... Kate." I stopped and faced her. "Well, my Dad borrowed it."

"Ohh, well hop in, I'll drive you home."

Kate opened the passenger seat for me. I wanted to say no and just keep walking, but I told her that I will give her a chance to make it up to me. And she's actually trying to reach up to me.

I shared my last period with her and she even sat beside me.

She's still cool just like before and the way she talked to me, it was like when we were close, nothing's changed about that.

Before I changed my mind, I climbed up her car and sat quietly.

Moments had past that neither one of us talk.

Until I noticed that we're already in front of my building.

"Did you get the home work? You seem pretty occupied by something else on the last period. I can loan you my notes if you want." Kate spoke right after she stopped the car.

I looked at her and smiled. I appreciate what she's doing, really. But she's right, my mind was occupied by something else, I mean, by someone else.

I am excited and also tensed.

I am excited to see Emma and tensed to what might happen tonight.

"Jen?" I felt Kate's hand on my thigh and it almost startled me.

"Are you ok, Jenny?" worries written across her face.

I reached for her hand and planned to take it away from my thigh but when I touched it, she grabbed mine and held it.

My eyes automatically went up to meet hers.

There were so many emotions in her eyes that I couldn't put a finger on.

Was it Sadness? Regrets? Longing? Love??

I'm confused. It felt like, she's looking at me with so much love and sadness.

I looked at my hand when her gripped became tighter and went back to her eyes again.

What is this? I wanted to ask her but nothing came out of my mouth.

Her eyes became teary and it confuses me more.

Before I could think of anything else, her other hand grabbed the back of my head and pulled me into a kiss.

WTF! I am panicking inside, my eyes were so big and I saw hers closed.

I wanted to resist and push her but my arms felt like a jell-o.

Her lips moved, trying to deepen the kiss, her tongue asking for permission to enter.

Her hand that was once on the back of my hand is now caressing my back until it reaches my hip, squeezing it like she longed to do it.

I can't. My mind was shouting and finally I was able to lift my arms and pushed her.

Her eyes opened and she looks surprised and... hurt?

I suddenly saw myself eight months ago, when she pushed me after I kissed her.

The only thing is, I didn't look at her with hatred and disgust, I am more confused and.. well, just confused.

"J-Jen..."

"Kate, w-why?"

She looks like, she don't know what to say. Been there.

One thing is for sure, she's about to cry. Her cheeks and nose got red instantly.

I wanted to comfort her but I stopped myself as I'm afraid she'll take it as an invitation and kiss me again.

And to be honest, I didn't feel a thing.

That kiss meant nothing, maybe eight months ago it would've. But now, all I can think was the kiss I shared with Emma. How I missed and longed for her. That my heart is with Emma now.

But still, I need answers from her.

Why did she kiss me?

What does it mean?

Is she gay now or what?

"Kate, why did you kiss me?" I had to ask her.

She looks pretty shaken up but I had to.

"I- Jen, I d-don't know." Her reaction looks genuine, I suddenly felt guilty asking her that.

She looks helpless and more confused than me.

"I-I just felt like kissing you, I've missed you, believe it or not. And.. I don't know what came to me and kissed you. A-Are you mad?"

Am I mad? I actually don't know what I feel.

She was stuttering and nervous, I guess?

"No, I'm not Kate, but I'm confused."
