Love Unfolding 86 I'm Ready

KAILEEN ANDY LEWIS

I hopped out of Erika's car with high spirit. We walk side by side along the hallway to our cla.s.s with me smiling from ear to ear.

I felt like I'm even flying as I can't feel my feet on the ground at all.

Right, she's going to live with me. Isn't that great? And right after cla.s.s we'll go and pack some of her stuffs from her apartment.

'Ayieee'

But just 'some' not 'all'. She has decided to still have her apartment in case her family check up on her and that's good enough for me as long as she lives with me.

'Hehehe'

"You're living together?"

I just nodded as both Rina and Donna uttered that in chorus.

We were inside Erika's car by the end of our cla.s.ses.

"And you're going to help us pack and carry her things up to my apartment." I added.

Bewilderment plastered both on their faces. They can't seem to believe it at all.

"Okay, but as much as I want to help, I can't." Rina declined after some time.

"I have younger siblings to take care of, and so I really have to go home."

"No, no, no. You're not going to leave me with this two love birds." Donna protested.

Rina guiltily smiled.

"Okay, as much as you have siblings waiting at home, I don't want to be the third wheel here at all." Donna reasoned.

"And as much as you don't want to be the third wheel at all, you don't really have a choice." I countered.

"And how come I don't have a choice?"

"Because you're my bestfriend and so you are going to help us." I insisted with my tongue out.

"And there's no rule for the bestfriend to do that." She stubbornly fought back.

"It's an unspoken rule Donna." I still insist.

She hissed and we laughed.

"Right, I don't do labor for free." Donna said while we're in the middle of packing at Erika's apartment.

"I know." I answered.

"Pizza delivery is on the way."

She loves pizza, I knew that.

"Truffle?"

"Truffle." I confirmed.

She just rolled her eyes at me.

"Aren't I cheap Erika?"

"I can be bought with just a pizza."

Erika laughed while shaking her head.

"You're just like Mei."

"No, no, no." Donna relentlessly shook her head not accepting the idea as though some kind of virus she doesn't want to be affected with.

"There's on one like me Erika, no one."

"And don't make me remember that chick, I don't like her."

"Ops, no offense for your cousin."

"None taken." Erika a.s.sured.

"You sure about this?" Donna whispered with worry in her tone.

We were by the kitchen eating pizza while Erika was in her closet finalizing things up.

I nodded.

She leaned more closer to my ear.

"Aren't you too fast?"

I chuckled. "I'm ready."

I could really tell the doubt in her expression.

"What if it didn't work?"

I shot her a glare with that. Since when did my friend became a pessimistic being?

"What if it does?" I countered.

"It is always a risk to love Donna." I reasoned.

She sighed.

"I haven't even had the chance to tell you while you were dating Erika to not date someone you can't see yourself marrying."

"Well, I can see myself marrying her." I answered firmly.

"I can even see the future of her raising our children." I added.

That earned me a slap at the back of my head.

'Such violent friend I have'
