CHAPTER 5

"Thank you Ezekier for joining us!" I said to him and I blushed again.

"Always welcome, by the way, are you going home?" He asked.

"Not yet, uncle, we will go to the beach!!" Well said with excitement on her face.

"Can I come?" He asked permission.

"Sure sure, that will be fun!" I said. Oh my gosh! Can't wait to see his body, just kidding!

We took an hour before we arrived at the beach that hour is so awkward, Ezekier is so silent while Welia is chattering with the driver.

"Ohhh yes!! We're here!!" Welia shouted and some people look over her.

"Hey, wels! Hahaha..." I said and then I laughed.

We spend some hours on the beach we enjoyed it even though we were just three, I saw how funny Ezekier is, how he protect us, and how serious he was. That time I realized I like him.

Am I too fast? I can say that I have feelings for Ezekier but I know it was not that too deep. I'm not too fast to deeply like someone, but when to Ezekier, I can't say anything.

"Thank you Ezekier for joining us today, we appreciate it!" I said to him while blushing and I feel so many butterflies in my stomach to the point that I want to die right now!

"You're welcome, and...." He said and he walks a little step and he whispered in my ears, "You so cute when you're blushing." he said.

After that, I feel again the butterflies on my stomach and I just stood there for a while until he snap.

"Are you okay?" He asked with concern.

"Yes, I am!" I said with my genuine smile.

Oh my gosh!! Stop that moves Ezekier!! I can't take it anymore!

---------

"Ezekier see you soon!" I said and then I waved my hands to him.

We're here at the airport because we will go back to the Philippines, and I decided too that I will go back to school, and I see the happiness on the face of my uncle. I don't know why I changed my moods, my vibes, and anything in just one click, I call it magic!

"See you soon too, Iya!" He said and then he waved back his hands.

"I saw in your eyes Iya, you like my uncle..." she said, and then she walked away.

"Hey! Of course not! I don't like him." I said when I reach her, I want to deny but I can't but still, I'm trying.

"Liar!" She said and she laughed.

"Hey Iya, I want to seat beside you." Welia ask for permission and I just nodded at her.

Gosh! I miss Ezekier I want to go back here when the school year ends.

"Uncle," I called my uncle.

"Yes, Iya?" He asked.

"Can we come back here next summer?" I asked.

"Yes, of course!" He said and I give him my genuine smile.

Wait for me Ezekier, please wait for me...

-----------

"Ceriya, are you sure you want to go back to school?" My uncle asked.

"Yes, I am." I said with full of determination.

"Okay good to know, then. I'll go ahead okay? See you later my niece." he said and then he hugged me, and I hugged him back, to show that I still respect him.

"Auntie Fely, where's Welia?" I asked when I saw her in the garden.

"Oh Iya, I don't know maybe in her room? Check it," she said and she continued what she was doing.

I knocked on Welia's room and she opened it while yawning.

"Sorry, did I wake you up?" I apologize.

"No no, it's okay. Come in." She said and she let me in.

"Are you free today?" I asked her. I want her to come with me, we will buy some things for our schooling.

"Yes, and why?" she asked.

"Come with me, we'll buy some things for our school, and I'll treat you." I said and I winked at her.

"Serious? No joke? You'll treat me?" She laughed and asked again.

"Yes, I am." I said to confirm that I'm serious.

"Okay, let me prepare first." she said.

"Okay, and don't rush too much okay? We will leave after lunch." I said and I went out of her room as well.

"Wait, Iya can I ask you?" She asked.

"Sure, what is it?" I said.

"How old are you, again?" She asked.

"I'm only thirteen, why?" I said and my curiosity comes in.

"Seriously?! But you act like an eighteen-year-old girl!" she said and I saw her shocked face.

"Ah? Hey, I'm only thirteen!" I laughed.

"See you later!" I said and I went outside of her room.

Wait, I'm only thirteen‽ I can't believe it too! And then I remember Ezekier, how old is he? Are we the same age? Nevermind.

So I decided to say hi to Ezekier, I bring out my phone and I chat him on a telegram.

"," I said.

" , I!" He replied to him.

" ?" I replied.

", ." less than a second later he replied.

" ?" I asked.

" ' nineteen, ?" He replied.

"M ! ' thirteen!" I replied.

"? ?" He replied. little sister?! it hurts!

Then fine, I'll treat him as my big brother. I shouldn't have assumed! or relied on him, of course, anyone, will also consider me as a little sister.

I think I'm wrong, I mean I have only a crush on him, not love.
