The Journey of Starla Love

Alden Angry

I woke up smelling such delicious food. I got ready and went to the dining room. Mama Mark seems to have served food on the dining table.

"Oh Starla baby, you're awake. Come and eat. Mark, Jason.... Come here for breakfast quickly." Shouted Mama Mark.

It didn't take them long, Mark and Jason quickly arrived. They both seemed to be wearing neat clothes.

Everyone must have noticed that Mark's eyes kept settling down on me. I still wear my clothes yesterday. I also just woke up from a good night's sleep a moment ago. But he was still looking at me as if I was an angel who had just descended from space. He looked at me so excessively.

He stepped quickly ahead of Jason and took a seat right by my side as if everything he did with Jason was a competition for both of them. Mark was really like a baby growing up in an adult human body.

After that, we all started eating food served by Mama Mark. Moreover, everything feels so delicious. After breakfast, I asked Mark to drive me home.

They all just wanted to let me go when I promised them that I would be back soon to meet them.

"Please promise me that you will come to visit often." Mama Mark said.

"Of course Auntie, I'll be visiting a lot while there's Auntie." Reply smile.

After saying good-bye, Mark and I headed to his car.

A few moments later, we were both on our way home. I finally got back together with Mark for the first time after his confession.

Suddenly everything felt so awkward, we just fell silent during the ride home. Mark then he started talking to me.

"I'm sorry Starla, my family thinks that you are my lover and I'm not telling them the truth as soon as possible. But I just don't want to accept the fact that you're not my girlfriend. I don't want to say that to all of them. But I will tell them today all those things and I will certainly wait for you. I'm really sorry for the confession of love that I suddenly made yesterday.

I'm sorry for not telling you that there will be my Mama and Papa there too. I thought if I told you everything honestly, you would never come to my house. You immediately wanted to come with me without knowing it, so I didn't want to take the risk of telling you the truth.

My parents have traveled so far to meet a woman I like and I really want you to meet them. I know I'm so selfish. I'm sorry." Mark said at length.

"Mark, please stop babbling and stop apologizing. It's okay, I like your family and I'm glad I got to meet them. So thank you for taking me to your house." I said to Mark.

"Well stop all that fighting now or I'll kick you out of your own car." I said in a serious tone threatening him.

He chuckled and a moment later, we finally arrived at my house. He's been dropping me off and asking me to call him before he goes back to the hospital. I went into the house feeling happy. But I didn't know that I would feel so upset afterwards.

"Where have you been? Why don't you go back home yesterday?" Said Alden who suddenly stood up by folding his hands on his chest.

"Why should I tell you Alden?" My words are getting upset.

"What if you were kidnapped or injured yesterday? I don't want to blame myself for your carelessness." Her speech.

"Hey stop talking such nonsense and admit it if you're worried about me." My speech.

"No, I'm not worried about you one bit." Her speech. "Where were you last night?" Say again.

"I stayed at Mark's house last night." Reply me.

"Are you serious? You lived last night in that stupid guy's house?" Alden said in an angry voice.

"Alden. for the hundredth time. Stop meddling with my problems. I don't care about your life and I want you to do the same. It's my life, you know, if I wanted to stay with Mark forever, then I would. Why are you acting like that? I went to meet his family. I was there last night and it was too late to go home. So I'm staying there." My speech.

"As far as you go." He said, then moved to his room and I stepped into my room as well.

One moment Alden and I were fine and the other we started fighting. I don't even know how to deal with that attitude. I don't think I'll ever be friends with him, (a rooftop friend).

I don't know if he'll let me stay here any longer or not.

Seriate..
