Because tomorrow I'm going to Aunt Gina's house in the city of hope. So today I just took Chris for a walk in a place not far from home.
Knee-length white dress was rich enough for our trip today. I let the hair down because it is not too dry after shampooing.

Tok tok!
"Sally, please open the door!" ma said as I helped Ma set the table for breakfast.
I rushed forward to open the door.
"Hi!" the man again.
Exhibited rows of white teeth with a smile that is so charming. Blue jeans and plain white shirts add to the perfect impression on his body.
Hey.. did I just say? Mesmerizing? Loh. have I been hit by the lure. Aargh.no! nay! I unconsciously shook my head.
"Hey..is there a guest instead of being invited in? You are acting strangely while shaking your head. Accept it, don't be rejected. The more you resist the more you stick to your brain and heart" Chris said teasingly, as if knowing what I was talking about in my heart.
"What the hell is your spiciness? I was a little dizzy so I shook my head. Come on in" I replied and invited him in.
"You sick?" without excuse put the back of his hand on my forehead.
"It's hot!" said.
"Oh you are. So you wanna go in?" I answered tightly while controlling my heart that was pounding as his hand touched my forehead.
"Yes, why are you so bad for me? It's better if I have the wrong you said. And if you like me, or even love me please express it!" he said as he passed before me into the house.
I bowed both my hands in my face, holding back my frustration.
"Son Chris let's join! We have breakfast together!" bring Pa.
This man is getting shameless. Do not hesitate to walk directly to the dining table join breakfast with us. Almost every night he ate dinner at our house.
***
After breakfast I took Chris to the river. Right, the river near our house which is one of my favorite places I told you about before.
"Sally, do we need to take all this?" chris asked to pause for a moment of fatigue walking while carrying a bucket, fishing net, fishing gear, and our lunch.
I nodded my head as I continued on our way.
I purposely let him carry all by himself, in return he often irritated me. I walked in front of him as a road guide with nothing. Sometimes I smile cunningly.
Until we were on the river. I helped Chris get all the luggage down. Last I helped remove the fishing net from his shoulder. He suddenly pulled my hand, threw me into his body, then hugged me from behind.
"I know you've been mocking me on purpose, right?" the whisper in my ear makes my hair bristle.
"Chris what the hell is this. Quickly let go of me!" my door.
"No. I won't let go! I've been following your game carrying all this equipment myself. Consider this my wages as a carrier" he said again, tightening his arms.
"Chris.I could die out of breath like this, or at least I could faint. Please let me go!" I begged him
"If you faint it's good. When Pa and Ma ask for accountability for why the girl fainted. I can directly propose to you as my responsibility!" still in the same position.
I'm getting cold sweat. Her warm chest made me comfortable while scaring me. I was afraid I would be too comfortable to be there and not want to leave. Duuh...what the hell is my brain thinking? Why is it so fucked up.
"I'll take off my arms on one condition. You have to answer my question honestly. You can't cover it with your pride. I need an honest confession from your lips" Chris said.
"I. I already love you, do you have the same taste for me? Please answer honestly according to how your heart feels. Here we are not superiors and subordinates. It's just me and you're a pair of grown men and women" Chris said with great emphasis on each word.
"Jawab honestly dear.., or do you really like being in this position hmm?" she whispered again softly because she saw me still flinching.
"Hmm. I. yes.." I stammered.
"Yes what, baby? Say it clearly!" said again.
I closed my eyes to concentrate and gather the remnants of the despair that was on me.
"I.iya.iya, I like you too." I replied.
"You are why it's so hard. I'm not sure I just liked it. The beating of your heart that I feel right now touching my hand says something else" Chris said forcefully.
"Chris, I don't know what this is called love? All I know is that when I am close to you my heart trembles. When I am with you I like it. Right now I'm kind of limp at loss of energy, and I feel comfortable leaning against your chest." I said a little yelling at what I felt as I closed my eyes.
"Thank you, 'cause you're being honest." Chris slowly stretched out his arms.
He turned my body so that our current position was facing. With my left hand around my waist. And with his right hand lifted up my chin. He saw my eyes fixed. A few seconds later he put his face down and landed a kiss on my lips.
I was stunned for a moment, as she removed her lips and hugs from me. Then he walked sitting on a big rock.
"That is punishment for delinquency you prank me into the Mount of Waiting" he said, throwing a small stone into the river.
"You mean?" many confused.
"Yes, that kiss was his punishment. But tomorrow I won't take it as a punishment. I hope if it happens again it's an expression of our love" she said again, patting the spot next to her for me to sit there.
His outstretched hand helped me sit on the big rock next to him. His hand then grabbed my shoulder.
"Our love?" my many.
"Foolishly, the confession of your heart revealed that you love me too" he said, snapping his finger on my forehead, then resting my head on his chest.
"Girl!" I refused to put my head there.
"So you said it yourself, if you feel comfortable leaning in here. I'm very happy to give it to you as the back of your head" he said, kissing the top of my head.
I gave up my head to lean on his chest. Not very relaxed, but it is comfortable to be there. Thankfully, I washed my hair this morning. Otherwise Chris could faint. Thinking about it unintentionally a smile was seen on my lips.
"That's your pleasure until you smile yourself." God.
"Not because of that" I said as I tried to remove my backrest.
"What the hell? Where you going? I love this position." said Chris, holding my head back.
Here on the river it becomes our historic place. For the first time as a grown woman I had a lover. A lover I never thought of before.
Never have a lover. If there are men who try to approach with the intention other than being a friend who is there I always feel uncomfortable. But this time, with Chris' persistence he can win my heart.
