The dinner was nice. Everything was so delicious, but I couldn't utter a word during the entire time we had dinner.
919Please respect copyright.PENANACBEjdr8L3N
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.
919Please respect copyright.PENANAGr8J3DuVAq
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.
919Please respect copyright.PENANAMC2wYczfum
Rachel gave up, and was soon deep in her own thoughts, silent like me.
919Please respect copyright.PENANANjsYy8mMxZ
Nathan was like himself, not talking much, and not being silent much.
919Please respect copyright.PENANAObKtnbujsR
However Dave and Rachel's parents were talking about nearly everything.
919Please respect copyright.PENANA69MAQ3RrrI
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.
919Please respect copyright.PENANAxiqfONrw4M
What has gotten into me?
919Please respect copyright.PENANAVYoCmww55g
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?
919Please respect copyright.PENANAE4XbaiobNQ
"Jessie, dear?" I looked up from the large strawberry cake in front of me and stared at Mrs. Evans.
919Please respect copyright.PENANAaKtOD6XEZA
"Yes?" I said. My voice sounding weird to my ears, maybe because I haven't talked for a while.
919Please respect copyright.PENANA2n0eoeaIbp
"Why do you keep staring at the desert instead of eating them?" Mrs. Evans asked with a polite, sweet smile on her face.
919Please respect copyright.PENANAKLZjwa3hjx
"Oh. I was... daydreaming" I admitted. Feeling my face flush under Mrs. Evan's stare.
919Please respect copyright.PENANA8BZ2591XTc
"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"
919Please respect copyright.PENANAYVwXyEFVG1
"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.
919Please respect copyright.PENANAqmJ7YwZ5JJ
I loved Mrs. Evan's cakes and sweets. They melted in my mouth, without a try.
919Please respect copyright.PENANA0BUVco2U91
"I was the one who told her its your favorite" Rachel grinned from ear to ear.
919Please respect copyright.PENANAOY2iJ1XprR
"I know it's you" I mumbled and smiled at my best friend.
919Please respect copyright.PENANAflJv4g9hML
Who would want a friend like Emma ? When I have Rachel.
919Please respect copyright.PENANASmGDXCYVxU
Okay, maybe I'm lying to myself. Maybe I'm very hurt by Emma after all.
919Please respect copyright.PENANA3bCGFijDpB
"Nathan?" Rachel called her brother.
919Please respect copyright.PENANARSnwvBm2pl
"Mm" Nathan mumbled, since his mouth was full of his mom's cooked biscuits.
919Please respect copyright.PENANA07ASD7bffH
"Umm... When will you go back to Florida?" Rachel asked, her eyes twinkling from excitement and nervousness. An expression I knew very well.
919Please respect copyright.PENANAWvMGLxiOLE
Nathan frowned, and stared at his sister for a few seconds before answering. "Why... are you asking?"
919Please respect copyright.PENANA31ig5n7XRM
"I'm just asking." She shrugged, "I missed you, you know."
919Please respect copyright.PENANA9sod7uxmOB
"I missed you too, guys." Nathan muttered, "I don't know when I'll be back, it depends on my research..."
919Please respect copyright.PENANAa6gJOooGJB
"Oh" Rachel mumbled. Staring at the plate in front of her, deep in thought again.
919Please respect copyright.PENANAb09D2ukLAq
Nathan stared at her suspiciously, but didn't ask further questions.
919Please respect copyright.PENANAnPlVH3Kqfj
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.
919Please respect copyright.PENANAr0AJ9Eofbe
Then it hit me.
919Please respect copyright.PENANA9UNebC93O3
Dave likes Rachel.
919Please respect copyright.PENANAMWq1PxBpQ6
And that stupid girl, not only doesn't have any idea about it, but also belittled poor Dave and doesn't like him.
919Please respect copyright.PENANA2R7oBuMLYj
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
919Please respect copyright.PENANAR4igZIyWNP
But... On the other hand, it's none of my business.
919Please respect copyright.PENANADu9SVKbxzW
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.
919Please respect copyright.PENANAbPsNLsQ2kI
I'll just pretend I haven't felt anything regarding Dave's crush for my friend.
919Please respect copyright.PENANALNtPPbrDfa
Yeah. That's for the better.
