Wrong Person

Zharina's POV

"So...I have to go, Zharina. See you on Monday" Caleb waved his hand to me before leaving our house. We talked about some random topics and I actually tell to him what happened to me before I got unconscious. He said that all of them has been nervous and panicked at the same time and when they heard the news that I'm fine our professor said that we need to celebrate it and it's his treat, they're just waiting for me to go back to school.

Caleb also offered to fetch me but I refused. I know that whoever saw us together will talk it about until they become an issue.

When I saw that Caleb's car wasn't already in the parking lot I go back to my room where Avy and Lian are waiting for me, and as expected they immadiently walked towards me, and their eyes are telling that what I and Caleb talked about.

I sigh and looked at them, "Don't talk, he just asks how I am and we just talked about any kinds of topic before he goes home" I said and lay down on my bed

"That's it?" Avy asked

"Yes, why?" I asked without looking at them and busy scrolling to my social media account.

"You didn't thank him?" Lian asked which makes me confused

"What do you mean?" I looked at them and they looked at each other.

"You don't remember that he's the one who saves you last week when you got an accident?" Lian spoke that made me froze.

"What?" I almost whispered

"Damn, girl" Avy said and inverted her eyes on me and shook her head like she's very disappointed in me.

"I didn't know! The doctor said that's normal that I will forget what happened when I've got unconscious, to be honest, I thought the rescuers was the one who saw and saves me first!" I said to them.

"Okay so now you know," Lian said and look at her laptop again.

"Why you girls didn't tell me!" I scolded them.

"We didn't know too and duh! you didn't ask either" Avy said and rolled her eyes to me before laying down beside me. I feel embarrassed! does Caleb go here to hear my 'thank you' for him? Oh, God! I'm dumb.

Tomorrow in the morning I decided to look for Caleb's account since I want to thank him but I realized that it's more satisfying if I will just talk to him in person.

When afternoon came Avy and Lian decided to go home so they can finish the things they need to do before Monday and also, I fix all my stuff and finish the classwork that was given to me.

After doing that I find it bored all of the sudden, I stay scrolling on my newsfeed, eating snacks, watching movies but still, there's something I want to do but I can't figure out what is it. Not until my brother knock on my door and give me a box of cupcakes that he brought outside. It gives me an idea so after eating some of the cakes inside I went down the stairs and check the kitchen if there's a stock that I can use for baking. I also call our maid that assign to the kitchen to help me cuz I don't have any idea that much.

I want to give Caleb a thank you gift for saving me that night, I really appreciate it because if he didn't saw me that fast maybe a lot of dangerous animals were already full because of me. I chuckled with that thought.

"Astraea, what is this for?" Our maid asked me while putting flour on a bowl.

"For my friend" I smiled widely and she smiled back.

"Really? Is that a male species?" She asked and laugh

"How did you know?" I asked back and she laughs again and stirred the mix of flour and milk while I am the one cracking the eggs.

"Girls keeps on doing this sweet thing towards a guy" I can hear the tease on her voice so I slap her shoulder jokingly.

"What do you want to say, sister?" I raised my eyebrows at her. She shrugged and didn't talk again so I pouted my lips "I don't like him, I just want to send him a thank u gift" I said and pout even more.

I heard her laugh "I didn't say that, You're the only one who said that, Astraea," She said while laughing

"Grrr stops teasing me, Just go out of here and leave this to me I can finish this on my own" I insist and push her out of the kitchen. Mami Linda keeps on teasing me with her laugh, yeah I prefer to call her my mama/ mommy since she's the closest maid to me or sometimes sister because she's older than me.

When I know she's already gone. I go back to the bar table and open my iPad to watch on YouTube how to make cupcakes. It took me an hour before finishing it but gladly it's all yummy and I'm satisfied with that I hope too that Caleb will feel the same way.

When I get back to my room I called mommy to please buy me a cupcake box because I will give it to someone, she agrees so I'm just waiting for her to get home and ready the cookies for tomorrow, Monday.

"Are you sure you're already fine? God, we all worried!" My schoolmate said to me when she saw me entering the school gate.

"Thank you for all your concerns, and yes I'm fine now" I replied to them and they say they're all glad. They also asked me what I'm holding "This is my homemade cupcakes" I proudly said and show them.

"They look delicious! can I have some?" They ask and I immadiently moved away from the box

"I'm sorry but this is for someone," I said while closing my eyes and shook my head.

"Someone? whom?"

"Secret" I answered and walk away from them. I want to text Caleb to ask where he is so that I can give it to him but I'm shy so I prefer to ask random students if they know where Caleb is not until I saw a cluster of students beside our building and realized that they are Caleb's friend, I walked towards to them and they look shocked.

"Hello! Have you seen Caleb?" I asked that they make shock, even more, they whispered something I can't hear but I don't care

"Aww, I didn't know you miss me already" I heard a familiar voice at my back and when I faced It I saw Caleb's smirking face. He looks fresh, her hands inside his pocket while having a shoulder back across on his shoulder and waist.

"A-ahm" I blushed for a bit so I nod down.

I can feel that he leans down on me and whispered "What is that hmm?" which makes my cheeks burn, even more, I heard a lot of teases roar from his friends that accompanied by others looking at us.

"I-i just want to give this" I showed up the box I'm holding, he moved away and his smirk suddenly fade away. He doesn't like it?

Caleb looked at me then at the cupcake and look at me again. I'm very shy right now and I think I will be embarrassed if he will not accept this.

"If you don't want it, it's okay. I just want to give this because I think thank you isn't enough for saving me" I said and looked at his eyes.

After a couple of minutes, he smiled sweetly and grabbed the box in my hand which makes the crowd shouted to us with a teasing sound and smile.

"Date! date! date!" They shouted so I waved my hand to Caleb before running inside my building. I was about to step on the stair when the two arms wrap on my both arms and I noticed that It was Avy and Lian

"We saw you! omg girl! what was that?!" Have asked

"Cupcakes" I answered

"Really?!" She chuckled so I glared at her because I know that sound she will tease me too like others

"The sweet side of Astraea, everyone" Lian spoke so I glared at her too but they just laugh at me.

I felt regret and satisfied at the same time, There's a part of me that want to regret it because I talk to him in public but satisfied because he accepts my gift for him.

Caleb's POV

"Bro! you're so lucky!" My friend beside me said and also the others around me but I didnt talk back instead I stand up and walked away, I can hear them calling me but I just ignore it.

Earlier I feel my heart pound abnormally because of what Astraea did but immadiently fade away when I saw Kajik looking at us with a cold expression. I didn't say that I'm afraid of him but feel Guilty because I know I'm not the one who saves Astraea that night, It was Kajik so I want to talk to him.

I was about to go to his room when I accidentally saw him inside the library, I walked inside and all of the eyes were looking at me but my sight is directly at Kajik who's busy reading a thick book. When I'm already in front of him I think he noticed that because he slowly looked up and when our eyes met I can see the coldness of it.

"I'll be waiting for you outside," I said before leaving. I wait for him on the side of the library, the old comfort room. When I saw his side view I called him so he can see me. He walked towards me with no expression and when he's already in front of me I immadiently handed him the box of cupcakes that were given by Astraea.

He just looks at it but didn't accept and then back his sight on me "It must you." I started

"This is yours, Astraea gave this to me for saving her life last week but I know I'm not the one who do that so this is yours not mine," I said but he still stunned and looking at me with no expression

"The effort inside of that is for you and not mine," he said before leaving me and walk up the stairs.
