Chapter Twenty Three – Jaw-dropping Moments and Childish Conference Calls

Justin

After 2 hours of constant rubbish nagging, Mrs. Adams demonic snores and Blake’s never ending questions, we had finally reached.  I don’t call Blake ‘bunch of questions’ for nothing.

“We have reached.” I announced as I exited my car. Mrs. Adams and Blake also opened the door and stepped out of the car. Surprisingly, the 7 year old kid, Blake offered to help with the luggage. I smiled at him and told him that it was okay if he just went inside the house and took some rest.

The boy looked tired.

“Hey mom!” I said as I entered our house and Mrs. Adams and mom were chatting up.

These ladies! No matter how much of tired they are they wouldn’t dare to miss chit-chatting. But as much as men complain about women, but we sure as hell can’t live without them.

“Hey sweetie!” Mom cooed and smiled.

After a while, Mom had made an amazing dinner and I just couldn’t stop eating. Mom and Mrs. Adams were chatting in the living room (as expected) and Blake was just sleeping in Mrs. Adams’s lap.

“Honey, can you just make Blake sleep in the room?” Mom asks nicely. “Sure.” I yawn.

It was 11PM and I was sleepy already. Of course I would be sleepy while listening to Blake’s non-stop nonsense and driving. Quite a tiring day.

“Honey you and Blake will be sharing the room,” And at that moment I felt like my jaw had literally dropped on the floor and I felt to laugh and tell mom that she should stop making such kind of jokes.

“What?” I ask once again. “You heard it honey, Blake and you are sharing the room,” Mom said with a normal expression on her face.

“But mom,” I groaned. “No buts Justin Drew. Carry Blake in your room and go to sleep. You look sleepy.” Mom said sternly.

“Fine.” I rolled my eyes. Mrs. Adams was looking at us amusingly.

I carried Blake into my room and made him sleep on the bed. I created a middle line with the pillows so that he wouldn’t cross the line and sleep on my part of the bed.

No matter how childish this sounds but I just had to do this.

“Justin do you like any girl?” Blake asked from nowhere. “Dude you are awake?” I ask. “What does it look like?” Blake rolled his eyes. This kid has a whole lot of attitude. Hang on kid!

“Okay,” I roll my eyes too.

“So, do you like any girl?” He asks again. “How old are you again?” I furrow my eyebrows.

“7, almost 8 years old.” He says proudly. “Good for you,” I mumble.  “Now listen to me carefully.” I say. Blake nods his head.

 “Don’t cross the line which is made by the pillows,” I point out. “Do not fart at night for god’s sake.” I say and make a disgusted face and Blake chuckles. “I’m serious.” I say with a stern look. “And now go to sleep.” I say finally. “But—“

“Just go to sleep, kid.” I say as I lay on the bed. “Fine. Good night.” Blake says.

“Goodnight.” I say and switch off the lights.

But when I was about to sleep, Blake’s question plops up in my head.

At that point of time, I just thought of Eden. I just seriously like – well love her so much and I’m sure that it will always be her that will just take my breath away in a good way.

Everything about her is so gorgeous, so perfect and just so amazing. Just thinking about her makes me smile and blights up my day.

I close my eyes and her face – beautiful face shows up and I happily get into my deep slumber.

Eden

“Is 10AM good?” I ask Stella who I was on the phone with. “Yeah, sounds good.” Stella says on the other line.

“Cool then 10AM it is.” I say as I play with the blanket. Currently I was lying on my bed with my blanket covered on my body, my laptop in front of me and my right hand occupied with the phone on my right ear.

“Yep!” Stella says. “So 10AM tomorrow at Costa Coffee?” I ask Stella. “Hm, cool. So I’ll meet you over there.

“Yeah and Stella don’t be late.” I warn her playfully as I bit my nails of my left hand.

“Yeah,” She chuckles. “And Eden, stop biting your nails,” Wait! How did she? Who am I even kidding? Stella knows me too well.

“Whatever!” I playfully roll my eyes and hear Stella chuckle on the other side of the phone. “Good night Eden,” Stella says and then I hear her yawn.

“Night Stella,” I smile.

With that I hang up the call.

I just hope everything gets all clear tomorrow and I get all of the bits and pieces of my answers.

Shit.

I forgot to call Ryan and Chaz. I wanted the reasons from them as well. Grabbing my phone which was placed on my lap, I keep the 3 of us on the conference call.

“Hey Eden!” Chaz’s ever so excited voice greets me. “Hi Chazzy!” I grin at the fact that this name irritates him so much.

“Don’t call me that.” Chaz fakes his stern voice and I chuckle. “Hey guys!” A new voice, which I recognized it to be Ryan’s greeted me and Chaz.

“Hey Ry boo,” Chaz giggles like a school going girl. “Shutup dude.” Ryan groans. I couldn’t help but laugh at them, especially the way Chaz giggled like a school going girl and the way he said ‘Ry boo’ and also the way Ryan was so irritated.

“Hey Ryan!” I giggle slightly. “So guys I want to talk to you both about something very important. Can we three meet at 1PM at Pizza Hut tomorrow? Are you guys free?” I ask and fiddle with my glasses.

As they replied with a ‘sure’ at the same time and we 3 laughed at it, I shut down my laptop and kept it on the table beside my bed.

“So tomorrow at Pizza Hut at 1PM. Cool?” I ask once again. “Yeah,” They say together once again. Ryan groaned and I and Chaz laughed at Ryan’s irritated groans.

“Guys, I’m sleepy.” I yawn. “Night Eddy boo and Ryan boo.” Chaz giggles. “Night Chazzy.” I say. “Night weirds.” Ryan laughs.

“Look who is talking,” Chaz says. “Me.” Ryan says in his duh tone.

“Okay! Night guys!” I smile. “Night.” Ryan says.

“Who will hang up first?” Chaz asks. “All 3 of us together?” I suggest. “Wonderful.” Ryan says.

“Okay. 1,2,3.” I countdown. “And go.” Chaz says and all of us hang up at the same time.

I laugh.

We all are just childish like that. I can’t imagine we all are 21 year old adults.

I just can’t wait for tomorrow to arrive and I get all of my answers.

Taking off my glasses, I keep them on the table and go to sleep.
