Chapter 68: “Shut up”

“Coming!” I shouted at the sound of the doorbell ring.

Did Blu forget something?

She had just left for her date with Julian which she had corrected me a million times with a flustered face saying it’s just a hang out.

“Did you forg-” I started to say but stopped midway to see Alex smiling down at me causing me to ask, “What are you doing here?”

“Your sister informed me that you looked a little down so she sent me to cheer you up. Of course with a warning that she’ll hunt me down if I hurt you in anyway,” He chuckled and then raising a bag full of snacks he asked, “So, why don’t you let me in and I’ll listen to whatever is burdening you.”

Feeling grateful for such a caring sister I invited him in and told him to place the snacks on the center table as I straightened the cushions and sat down on the couch where I had just been laying a few minutes ago.
