The dinner was nice. Everything was so delicious, but I couldn't utter a word during the entire time we had dinner.
699Please respect copyright.PENANAaTF2vKhbGX
Even after dinner was finished, I couldn't say thank you to Rachel's mom who had become very tired with preparing all those amazing and delicious dishes for us.
699Please respect copyright.PENANACuWHHfwaMw
The reason of my silence was unknown to me. Maybe it was because I didn't feel like talking, no matter how much Rachel and her parents asked me questions and tried to make a conversation with me.
699Please respect copyright.PENANAwMtwqeUYks
Rachel gave up, and was soon deep in her own thoughts, silent like me.
699Please respect copyright.PENANAqFDTeqANS3
Nathan was like himself, not talking much, and not being silent much.
699Please respect copyright.PENANAGpObi8PyGv
However Dave and Rachel's parents were talking about nearly everything.
699Please respect copyright.PENANAXdF9VrsA8t
I couldn't help but think of what happened today before we came to the Evans's house. And I felt extremely embarrassed that I had changed into my pajamas ( my worst ones) instead of my yellow floral dress.
699Please respect copyright.PENANA2S2kqHstCB
What has gotten into me?
699Please respect copyright.PENANAN3pyby3AhY
First I hear unexpected imaginary voices in my head, then I mistakenly change into my worst pajamas. I know, Emma hurt me a lot, but I don't think I have thought about her today. So why was I hearing her voice in my head now and then?
699Please respect copyright.PENANAQFLknrAkLy
"Jessie, dear?" I looked up from the large strawberry cake in front of me and stared at Mrs. Evans.
699Please respect copyright.PENANAfzYVXH6lmI
"Yes?" I said. My voice sounding weird to my ears, maybe because I haven't talked for a while.
699Please respect copyright.PENANAmkIPaGORO7
"Why do you keep staring at the desert instead of eating them?" Mrs. Evans asked with a polite, sweet smile on her face.
699Please respect copyright.PENANAdvsGVa7yfG
"Oh. I was... daydreaming" I admitted. Feeling my face flush under Mrs. Evan's stare.
699Please respect copyright.PENANACV76gYnyzI
"Eat some, my dear. Here..." She cut the chocolate cake in front of Dave, with a large knife. And put the delicious looking piece of cake on the plate in front of me. "I baked this for you, I knew it's your favorite"
699Please respect copyright.PENANAogOM5ecEqD
"Thank you" I mumbled and smiled. Finally there was a sincere smile on my face. I licked my lips and grabbed my fork, then I dug into the piece of cake in front me, and savored its taste.
699Please respect copyright.PENANA1oUSp2FvKm
I loved Mrs. Evan's cakes and sweets. They melted in my mouth, without a try.
699Please respect copyright.PENANALYiWA87mRb
"I was the one who told her its your favorite" Rachel grinned from ear to ear.
699Please respect copyright.PENANAusHLyNASBm
"I know it's you" I mumbled and smiled at my best friend.
699Please respect copyright.PENANAXKdMmQK9sw
Who would want a friend like Emma ? When I have Rachel.
699Please respect copyright.PENANAI6bjjZEB1w
Okay, maybe I'm lying to myself. Maybe I'm very hurt by Emma after all.
699Please respect copyright.PENANAAMdhBmOxRf
"Nathan?" Rachel called her brother.
699Please respect copyright.PENANAW9jLvsKRH9
"Mm" Nathan mumbled, since his mouth was full of his mom's cooked biscuits.
699Please respect copyright.PENANAhLXyHO2QXM
"Umm... When will you go back to Florida?" Rachel asked, her eyes twinkling from excitement and nervousness. An expression I knew very well.
699Please respect copyright.PENANAHOvwUBw73f
Nathan frowned, and stared at his sister for a few seconds before answering. "Why... are you asking?"
699Please respect copyright.PENANAnEcj9ihPdr
"I'm just asking." She shrugged, "I missed you, you know."
699Please respect copyright.PENANA8SCVkCOcoo
"I missed you too, guys." Nathan muttered, "I don't know when I'll be back, it depends on my research..."
699Please respect copyright.PENANAzNdXxqbDWR
"Oh" Rachel mumbled. Staring at the plate in front of her, deep in thought again.
699Please respect copyright.PENANAUJUL0SQ0lh
Nathan stared at her suspiciously, but didn't ask further questions.
699Please respect copyright.PENANAIydcyIhHXt
Dave was staring at Rachel too. But not the way Nathan was staring at her. His face was glowing, and he fixed his eyes on her more than normal. And more than once.
699Please respect copyright.PENANAb8U80YHnN2
Then it hit me.
699Please respect copyright.PENANA8QHpuQO5bj
Dave likes Rachel.
699Please respect copyright.PENANAJHMi3RQoT7
And that stupid girl, not only doesn't have any idea about it, but also belittled poor Dave and doesn't like him.
699Please respect copyright.PENANAaamqh4F7fj
I think I should tell her. Since I have made too many problems by not saying anything. I should open my mouth this time, and say something
699Please respect copyright.PENANA3x1hSoQKh4
But... On the other hand, it's none of my business.
699Please respect copyright.PENANAXnuFNXeeUC
Rachel doesn't care about Dave anyways, Dave might get hurt if I say anything about the matter. Also maybe I'm mistaken. Like how I was wrong when it came to Samuel Davies's feelings for me.
699Please respect copyright.PENANAzhs3w4VDIz
I'll just pretend I haven't felt anything regarding Dave's crush for my friend.
699Please respect copyright.PENANAsLtqh8xU2a
Yeah. That's for the better.
