Chapter 6

I remember vividly all the details from the previous day as I've been ruminating on the events. I spoke to my number one high school crush. I mean, obviously, I have more crushes, talk about Shawn Mendes, Cole Sprouse, let's just say i have a lot of sensible crushes.

Okay even though my best friend is happy for me about this, he also gets frustrated and annoyed by my incessant behaviour to what happened. He tells me I'm a stalker and a hopeless romantic, which amazes me because I come from a broken marriage and romance is what I can never hope for. Ha, the irony, I smile to myself.

I'm to babysit the twins again today and i seriously can't wait because I've planned the best fun filled day for those kids. I know how to keep business and personal life separate so I'm not disturbed about the fact that their brother is dropping them off. My bestfriend is still here so he planned the whole day with me.

He is sitting in the living room chomping down the cookies I made for the twins to enjoy. I finish clearing the kitchen and I go to join him on the couch.

"So, our dreamy man is less than an hour away from you right now, How do you feel?" He asks while wiggling his brows in a funny way.

I smile and shake my head while saying," what? I'm totally okay with it and I'm not disturbed about it" I stick my tongue out as I read h for the bowl of popcorn.

He retracts the bowl from me and I place a scowl on my face. He sticks his own tongue out at me and it just makes me laugh at how babyish he's behaving.

A knock is heard and both our eyes look towards the door. I feel nervous all of a sudden and my hands become sweaty.

I walk to open the door in slow and nervous strides. The door is finally open and I almost stumble to the ground does to the kids hugging me and I grab anything around me to steady myself.

After some time of hugs I look up to his eyes and I'm taken so far away. He's wearing a black t-shirt that hugs every perfect aspect of his body and I mean all of his body then. He's wearing a blue fitted Jean with airforce ones and I'm so jealous of his phone with his right grip of it in his right hand.

Noticing I had been staring for too long, I moved aside to let them in and I close the door behind me. The girls already dropped their bags on the floor and I pick them up gently. I moved to the living room and I met them all on the couch. I begin to tell the twins how I've planned their day today.

"Okay, hope you brought your gaming spirit along because we're all going to the park to play some b-ball". I say in a cheering voice. The girls also join in my joy and they jump around.

Islam speaks up and asks her brother to come with because I once mentioned I didn't know how to play the chosen sport for today and I'm scared he'll say no and ruin my whole confidence I've cooked up before their arrival.

"Sure, anything for my girls", he says. Oh my goodness. What did I just hear? Did he just agree to come with? Oh I have to note this day down in my diary and I sure hope I'm one of his girls. Oh wait that sounded weird.

I notice everyone is waiting for my permission and i immediately tell them to go outside and pull up the car so that i can pack the needed stuff. Their brother offers to help lift the picnic bag and our fingers brush when I transfer the bag to him and I'm sure my face is as red as a tomato on its brightest day.

I can't wait to see how this day would go.
