The dinner was nice. Everything was so delicious, but I couldn't utter a word during the entire time we had dinner.
947Please respect copyright.PENANARdASOAnAb9
Even after dinner was finished, I couldn't say thank you to Rachel's mom who had become very tired with preparing all those amazing and delicious dishes for us.
947Please respect copyright.PENANA11yyK23Goh
The reason of my silence was unknown to me. Maybe it was because I didn't feel like talking, no matter how much Rachel and her parents asked me questions and tried to make a conversation with me.
947Please respect copyright.PENANAapJRNX3UKH
Rachel gave up, and was soon deep in her own thoughts, silent like me.
947Please respect copyright.PENANA1DNfAljWfZ
Nathan was like himself, not talking much, and not being silent much.
947Please respect copyright.PENANA9uk74WBnzH
However Dave and Rachel's parents were talking about nearly everything.
947Please respect copyright.PENANAHiU5WQIyYZ
I couldn't help but think of what happened today before we came to the Evans's house. And I felt extremely embarrassed that I had changed into my pajamas ( my worst ones) instead of my yellow floral dress.
947Please respect copyright.PENANAKIyKa9QFUV
What has gotten into me?
947Please respect copyright.PENANAbsjgJMoz7F
First I hear unexpected imaginary voices in my head, then I mistakenly change into my worst pajamas. I know, Emma hurt me a lot, but I don't think I have thought about her today. So why was I hearing her voice in my head now and then?
947Please respect copyright.PENANAs1CeF1J7Xi
"Jessie, dear?" I looked up from the large strawberry cake in front of me and stared at Mrs. Evans.
947Please respect copyright.PENANAwlUvwhXsO5
"Yes?" I said. My voice sounding weird to my ears, maybe because I haven't talked for a while.
947Please respect copyright.PENANAlvng5W9m92
"Why do you keep staring at the desert instead of eating them?" Mrs. Evans asked with a polite, sweet smile on her face.
947Please respect copyright.PENANAA1OmF7zgt9
"Oh. I was... daydreaming" I admitted. Feeling my face flush under Mrs. Evan's stare.
947Please respect copyright.PENANABrst5dzf8M
"Eat some, my dear. Here..." She cut the chocolate cake in front of Dave, with a large knife. And put the delicious looking piece of cake on the plate in front of me. "I baked this for you, I knew it's your favorite"
947Please respect copyright.PENANAkINWLLz7CT
"Thank you" I mumbled and smiled. Finally there was a sincere smile on my face. I licked my lips and grabbed my fork, then I dug into the piece of cake in front me, and savored its taste.
947Please respect copyright.PENANAuDiFJaLxci
I loved Mrs. Evan's cakes and sweets. They melted in my mouth, without a try.
947Please respect copyright.PENANAurvXeI9z5k
"I was the one who told her its your favorite" Rachel grinned from ear to ear.
947Please respect copyright.PENANAcRCbTwu4YQ
"I know it's you" I mumbled and smiled at my best friend.
947Please respect copyright.PENANAYPEYO9e4xN
Who would want a friend like Emma ? When I have Rachel.
947Please respect copyright.PENANATPBMwagiPc
Okay, maybe I'm lying to myself. Maybe I'm very hurt by Emma after all.
947Please respect copyright.PENANAXWQtALWztU
"Nathan?" Rachel called her brother.
947Please respect copyright.PENANAxtoSvyQEha
"Mm" Nathan mumbled, since his mouth was full of his mom's cooked biscuits.
947Please respect copyright.PENANAdgz9wrBOpX
"Umm... When will you go back to Florida?" Rachel asked, her eyes twinkling from excitement and nervousness. An expression I knew very well.
947Please respect copyright.PENANAhDnwB9EsBk
Nathan frowned, and stared at his sister for a few seconds before answering. "Why... are you asking?"
947Please respect copyright.PENANABFgSS20WVS
"I'm just asking." She shrugged, "I missed you, you know."
947Please respect copyright.PENANAEiJMQELB2f
"I missed you too, guys." Nathan muttered, "I don't know when I'll be back, it depends on my research..."
947Please respect copyright.PENANA3ojCJJxoE0
"Oh" Rachel mumbled. Staring at the plate in front of her, deep in thought again.
947Please respect copyright.PENANAxViDU0SdIG
Nathan stared at her suspiciously, but didn't ask further questions.
947Please respect copyright.PENANA40nKbpRSAE
Dave was staring at Rachel too. But not the way Nathan was staring at her. His face was glowing, and he fixed his eyes on her more than normal. And more than once.
947Please respect copyright.PENANA8CEEAfBLyK
Then it hit me.
947Please respect copyright.PENANAxSmPsFL8y8
Dave likes Rachel.
947Please respect copyright.PENANAuE50erR3cv
And that stupid girl, not only doesn't have any idea about it, but also belittled poor Dave and doesn't like him.
947Please respect copyright.PENANAfFhLAPvc3w
I think I should tell her. Since I have made too many problems by not saying anything. I should open my mouth this time, and say something
947Please respect copyright.PENANAg4wseXbi5N
But... On the other hand, it's none of my business.
947Please respect copyright.PENANAhOFvq8BEWd
Rachel doesn't care about Dave anyways, Dave might get hurt if I say anything about the matter. Also maybe I'm mistaken. Like how I was wrong when it came to Samuel Davies's feelings for me.
947Please respect copyright.PENANAtDZXHJKRXK
I'll just pretend I haven't felt anything regarding Dave's crush for my friend.
947Please respect copyright.PENANATETtVwrdGQ
Yeah. That's for the better.
