Why are you lying to me ?

It was Saturday so today was more of a rest day for everyone. Me and my family started the day with a good sleep in the morning before having a good breakfast with Daisy my cat. He had gained a lot of weight probably because of my mother who fattens him. I would have to take him to play sports.

But for me it was going to be an extraordinary day. A surprise awaited me from Aaron. I couldn't wait to see what he had planned, but I couldn't wait to spend time with him even more. At the moment, with the lessons and the pressure of the practice exams, we didn't have time to discuss things together.

- Aaron surprised you today, the system laughed

- Yes I'm really impatient

- it shows don't worry the system mocked

- Find yourself, you too someone, I mean a friend of course I said smiling

- Stop stuffing me with dog food he said rolling his eyes

- Alright, alright I said rolling my eyes

- But otherwise it's been a while since we last saw your boyfriend, my mother told me

- When will big sister's boyfriend come? Asked my excited little sister

My father slowly very slowly turned his stern face towards me. He furrowed his brow at me as if trying to find out if what my mother was saying was true or just a tease.

- No no it's my friend I stuttered my face red

My little brother rolled his eyes, my mother too, my little sister too and my father. In fact no one believed what I was saying. Did he really think I was in a secret relationship with Aaron? I think he had watched too much film.

- Uh, I've finished eating I'm going to my room, have a good appetite I said, running away quickly

- Big sister ran away because she knows the truth about Aaron you think was found out? Mady whispered to her brother

- No she ran away because she was shy and embarrassed to talk about her romantic relationship with us corrected her brother

-------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------

Arriving in my room, I collapsed on my bed. I checked my phone. I had received several messages, and I replied to Aaron's first.

& message Aaron: Hi Ruby hope you slept well. It's been so long since we last saw each other !!! I feel like it's been a century. I miss you ... So I made you a surprise I'm going to come to xx at your place so get dressed.

& message Ruby: Hi Aaron I'm okay, I hope you are ok too !!! It's true that it made me weird to see you hanging out at my house or chatting together. I can't wait to discover your surprise, I'm getting dressed and looking forward to your arrival !!! I missed you too ...

---------------------------------

I opened my closet wide. It was time to put together my perfect outfit.

I took over an hour to pick out the perfect outfit.

Either the outfit was too dull, either too serious or too charming so when I thought it was unsuccessful I found after hours of searching a green pleated skirt and a casual white t-shirt with "dare to live is it" written on it. dare to love ". With a small pair of white basketball it was perfect.

The outfit really emphasized my simplicity, that's why I loved it.

Knock Knock knock

- come in I shouted

It was my mother ...

- Your "friend" between quotes and there say my mother smiling

- Aaron? !!! My voice betraying my excitement and nervousness

I even ended up forgetting my mother's implication about Aaron ...

- Yes it's him, go hurry up, he's waiting for you downstairs she said to me

- Okay tell him I'm coming and don't leave him alone with daddy who knows what he could say to him I say exasperated

- ok ok I hurry to go downstairs said my mother trying somehow to suppress her laughter

My mother gently closed the door to my bedroom. I was really happy that my little sister and my little brother did not come to disturb me because there I was really stressed and I would not have had time to take care of them.

- It's okay I'm ready let's go I said to myself

I went down the stairs quickly. I was afraid my parents would say something that might scare him.

I should have left Aaron to neither of them actually I thought to despair

- Dad, mom, me and Aaron we're going out we're not coming back too late don't worry, I said quickly, taking his arm and dragging him until I was outside my house.

- You're sure they won't say anything when they see us go out so quickly he laughed

- I'm afraid he scares you that's why I wanted to leave quickly I explained shyly

- Haha thank you but don't worry your family is super nice. I just feel like your little brother doesn't really like me he said quite amusedly

- Ah yes ?

don't pay attention to him maybe he wasn't in a good mood who knows ?! Otherwise you okay? How are you doing ?? I asked him

- Me, it's going really well. A little tired with the revisions but that's okay he explained to me

- and how have you been since ?? He asked me smiling

- Just like you, revisions are super tiring, especially since we have to do our homework so everything becomes a big workload, I said, hurting myself

- Fortunately, very soon we will have the trip it will do us good comforted me Aaron

- Yeah it's true I can't wait I say all excited

- me too added Aaron

In the meantime on had got into his car.

- Where are we going if not I asked curiously

- I'm taking you to a place where you are going super well, he said to me with a mysterious air which had the gift of making me laugh

- You arouse my curiosity I always say to him laughing

- By the way, I like your outfit… it looks great on you, said Aaron, his ears a little red

- Thank you too you dressed super well on sees that it took you time to choose your outfit I said to tease him

- Yeah I took over an hour to choose, I really wanted to put on something that you would like he said looking me straight in the eyes for a second before looking straight ahead

My heart skipped a beat and then began to beat harder and harder. Did he manage to hear my heart pounding in my chest? In any case, I was sure that my face had turned all red. No matter how much I tried to think of another chosen one or clear my mind, I couldn't. So I tried somehow to change the subject.

- Uh, we're coming soon I asked

- We have already arrived he said smiling at me

Wow we went inside the store, it was full of games.

- So what do you think he asked me a little stress

- I've always wanted to go to this kind of place, it was a dream for me and you made it come true, thank you, I replied amazed by everything I saw

- I'm glad you like it so he said smiling at me

- It's gone so I said, entering towards the games

Aaron was really good at games. He had won several teddy bears and toys which he then gave to me. We had had hours and hours of fun. I will love so much that this moment never ends ...

- It's time to go he said suddenly looking at me

- What is it already over I said annoyed

- No, there is another surprise waiting for you elsewhere he said to me

We left this game store to walk to his car. Where I put all the toys Aaron had given me and won in the back seats of his car. I couldn't wait to see the latest surprise. What was in store for me?

- Where are we going ? I asked curiously

- Surprise he laughed

- Isn't there even a little clue? I asked even more curiously

- It's something natural and beautiful to see he informed me

- But how can I discover the surprise with these clues I say amused

- We'll have to manage, I won't give any more clues, he said to me, laughing

- Okay I'll try to find out for myself I said sulking which had the effect of making him laugh even harder

Barely an hour later we had arrived. In front of me stood a magnificent landscape, the wind was blowing my hair. It was peaceful.

- Come, I'll take you to see the lake, it's beautiful, he said taking my hand

BIP-BIP-BIPPPPPPPPPPP

Aaron's phone suddenly vibrated, he refused to call. But the cell phone started to vibrate even more.

- Take the maybe it's something important I tell him

He hesitated for a second, he wanted to be sure I didn't mind before he took the call quickly. I moved away to give him some privacy.

- Hallo?

- It's me Chi-sun your fiancé she said

- Sorry call me after I'm busy

- Yes I heard that you went on a date with this girl she said to him angry

- Her name is Ruby he informed her with a furrowed brow.

- I am warning you that if you continue like this I will tell her that it was you who put the letters in her locker she sneered

- What letters he asked still frowning

- You have a short memory say so she said in an amused tone

- Answer me he said a little annoyed

- The letters I asked you to give her, have you ever wondered that there might be something weird? She asked him

-…

- Or ... you knew it but you pretended not to know it she said childishly

- Do not forget that I can denounce you he threatened

- You could but it will only give you problems and you know it. Remember, I know you participated in his harassment. Stop playing the hero you make me throw up she said in a tone of utter disgust

- Send me the address I'll arrive he said quickly hanging up

He remained a few minutes watching the void shock. Where did this information come from? How had she known?

- You're done said Ruby approaching

- Yeah could only answer Aaron still confused

- What is it you are all pale she worried

- Something happened at my house I have to go home sorry he whispered to me with downcast eyes hiding his bad conscience

- Ok go ahead so I'll be back by train don't worry

I said goodbye to him when I saw him leave the parking lot. Something was wrong, I knew he was lying to me. But I let it go, I just hoped that would be the last time he would lie to me. As I walked into the war I heard someone call my first name. The moment I met the eyes of the person calling me my heart skipped a beat. It was-

Hello, I hope you are doing well !!! Sorry for the delay. Hope you enjoyed the chapter !!! ο(=•ω＜=)ρ⌒☆
