Apologize

"what dream was this? I never had this type of dream before. Was it my mind?" said Ellie pondering about the dream she had.

"I think this is so strange, how can you dream like that? It felt like it's happening, don't tell me it happened and you are lying to me about it.Are you hurt?" Lestina said as she scanned her son from head to toe with worry writing over her face. "mom stop worrying, it actually is a dream" holding his mom, Ethan tried his best to calm her. "but tell me, who is Ellie? Wait, is it Elline Astofa? Don't tell me you like her" his mom screamed, it's one thing telling your mom something and it's another explaining it to them. One mistake and you're done. Coming clean is the one way you can be free forever, no matter the circumstances and another way is fleeing. And Ethan choose the later as he dashed out of the room. And when his mother turns around there is no sign of her son. "Ethan! Come back here!!!" There no point since he's already gone.

Unknown to them, they had the same dream.

"hi Ellie" Ethan greeted with enthusiasm showing his white rabbit front teeth . "wow, so now you know my name. Going about greeting me like an old friend" Ellie who is still grumpy about been pointed at said. "I'm sorry if you get annoyed about what ensued yesterday, I was just curious about you and your friend. My apologies" Ethan said as he gave her a slight bow before leaving. Ellie can't help feeling guilty, maybe she was a little rude. And that's exactly what Ethan wants. Stealing a glance at her guilty face, he can't help but smile to himself. 'Ellie, Ellie you just wait', Ethan mumbled to himself with a sly smile.

Quietly hiding behind Robert's gate, He snapped a picture of Ellie as she passed by. 'is not this cute? Just look at her face' smiling Ethan said as he looked at the picture. "what are you smiling about?" Robert asked making him jump in surprise. That really scare him out of his pants. "whoa man easy, I just asked you a question. You've been standing here for a lifetime, what are you up to?" Robert continued as he saw his friend acting like someone who is on the run. "nothing" straightening up, Ethan walked away. Looking outside Robert heard Marvie's gate been closed. Guessing correctly, he silently laughed at his friend for his childish behavior.

MEANWHILE

Ellie sulks to her friend about her behavior towards Ethan. Taking a mind note to apologize to Ethan when next she see him. Marvie who noticed the effect Ethan had on her friend quietly listen to her as she go on and on about him. "Marvie please help me, I don't know what to do" Ellie continued to whine. "Go and apologize to him if that's how you feel. Tell him why and all, I think he'll understand" Marvie said curtly. It's obvious what her friend's problem is but she don't want to be the one saying it, she need to figure it out herself. Ellie's actions right now just reminds her of her early days with her fighting enemy who is now her fiance. They were always fighting and bickering whenever they cross paths, from the biggest to the smallest thing possible. Always going on and on, no one admitting their wrongs.
