Cousin

Time flies. One week past and today is Saturday. I'm so proud of myself because I can ignore Kyle. The last conversation that I have with him is that day when I met his brother and sister. I put a powder on my face, I look at the mirror to examine myself. I wore a black Racerback tank and a pair of black dolphin shorts. I tie my hair before I wear my sneakers. I do stretching before I decided to go downstairs. "Hi, my darling, where are you going?" My mom asked. "I'm going to jog mommy," I said before I went out.

I started to do jogging and I can feel my sweat going down to my cheeks. It's so sticky and It's very disgusting. I look at my watch, 30 minutes past since I started to do jogging. I decided to stop at that corner, my leg is aching. I froze when I felt something sticky that stick on my leg. I look down slowly... "Ahhhh!!!!" the dog started to bark at me. I don't know why I started to run fast, the dog is chasing me! Ah! I run as fast as I can, the dog is good at running. I saw a shadow of a man, I don't know why I go near to him. I don't even know why I clang on him. "H-hey! What are you doing?!" he said irritated. "H-help me!" I clang at him tightly when I heard the dog bark. "Get down!" he said with an authority. "I don't want to!"

"Chow-chow sit!" I look at him curiously. Is he talking to me?! I felt his arms encircled on me. I felt like someone is hammering my heart. I don't know why it feels so nice when he touches me. "You can now go down," he said gently. "O-okay," I go down from him. I shook my head when I realized what is happening now. Why did I clang on him?! I'm ignoring him for the past few days and now I'm here at his side?! Oh gosh!

I jumped when the dog started to bark. I look at that dog and I saw that Kyle carried it. Is he the owner of that dog?! And why is he here?! I fix myself before I walk away slowly. "Where are you going?" I stop and I bit my lower lip. He goes to my front, I lowered my head but he holds my chin, he makes my head lookup. "Why are you ignoring me these past few days?" he asked. "I-i didn't ignore y-you," I lied. "Oh? Is that so?" I don't know why I felt irritated because of his reaction. Is he teasing me?! "Could you please get out of my way? I'm going home," I said. "I will follow you," my eyes widened at him. I ignored him, I started to walk away from him.

He is getting on my nerves. He has a thing with that witch Cassandra, why is he here?! I stop when I felt like someone is following me. I crossed my arms before I face him. "Why are you here?" I asked. "Why would I answer your question?" he smirked. I rolled my eyes at him before I started to walk. I walk faster so that I can go to my home. I can feel that he still following me. Don't mind him Yvienna, you can do it! You can ignore him! I sighed when I finally saw our house. I know that he's still following me, I just don't want to mind his presence. I stop when I saw a familiar car parked outside of our house. A familiar man gets down from the car. He's so handsome! He removed his sunglasses before he fixes his hair using his hand. He glanced at me and a smile appear on his face.

"Dashylle!" I run towards him and I screamed when he hugged me and lifts me. "Hey! bring me down!" I laughed. "I don't want to," I pulled his hair, he brings me down and I released his hair from my hand. "Why did you touch my hair?!" he said irritated. "Oh! Dashylle! Come in!" I hear my mother's voice. Dashylle gets the box from his car before we went inside our house. He said that he forgot his wallet in his car. He gave me the key, I sighed before I go out of our house. I stop when I saw Kyle standing at the front of our house. His face is blank and his jaw tightened when he saw me. He fixes his hair using his hand before he walks away carrying his dog. Is he mad? I shake my head before I went to my cousin's car. Why is he always like that? And why I'm always obeying him when he visits here?! Argh!

I harshly closed the door of his car before I went inside our house. I throw the wallet on his face. He looks at me pissed. I just stick out my tongue at him. "You! Brat girl!" he started to run. I run upstairs because he's chasing me. "Don't chase me!" I screamed. I laughed when he caught me. "Got ya!" he laughed. "You two! The food is ready!" we looked into each other before we started to run. "Be careful!" my mom shouted. We hurriedly sit down on the chair before we started to eat. "You two are so silly," my mom laughed. "I'm not silly, I'm pretty," I said before I chewed. "Pfft," I kicked his feet when he laughs. "Why are you here?! Go back to America!" I rolled my eyes.

"I will not give my gift to you," my eyes widened because of what I heard from him. "What gift? Give it to me now!" I shouted. "Be kind to me first," he said. "Okay, older brother," "Pfft," he laughed again. "Are you teasing me?!" I gritted my teeth. "Of course not! It's very new that you become polite to me," he chuckled. "I'm just being polite to you because of that gift,"
