Chapter 10
Joanne was still singing while looking for something to eat inside the refrigerator in the main kitchen of the boarding house. She fell asleep while waiting for dinner time. Chad did not wake him up because he knew his head would only heat up when his sleep was interrupted again.
Also, he is not ready to face Marcus again.
He is a coward if he is a coward, he is only preparing his heart because he knows a hurtful word and just thinks from Marcus his heart will be broken.
He knew his eyes were shining when he saw a slice of chocolate cake in the refrigerator. He had no food in his own refrigerator so in Chad's refrigerator he was picking up food. “Yay! My favorite. ”
He put down the saucer and took some water. He left the refrigerator turned on because he did not bother to turn on the kitchen light. He's lazy, eh.
“You’re my cuppycake, gumdrop, snoogums-boogums. You’re the apple of my pie… ”he stopped singing when he heard a crack in the back. He swallowed. He has never heard of a ghost here in the apartment
He slowly turned around and a scream escaped his lips when he saw a figure in front of him. In great fear he splashed the water in the glass he was holding.
“What the fuck ?!”
Oops. He knew that voice and was unlikely to be a ghost.
"Mac?"
“Who else? Freddy in Elm Street? Fuck! The cold, shit! ” he was sick and to his surprise he suddenly took off his shirt.
He was stunned to see its body. Gone was the stickman she used to know years ago and was replaced by the man who has six-pack abs that looks so… yummy.
"Is it cold?"
“Can I spray you with water from the refrigerator? You will not be cold? ” he said, his voice dripped with sarcasm.
He frowned. The first time they talked and she brought him disaster. Great, just great. "Sorry. I was scared. I thought it was a ghost. ”
“Yeah. Casper will surely be afraid of cold water. ”
"The man is already sorry, eh." He said that he just focused his eyes on her face so that he would have a stiff neck. He thinks differently when he sees his body still wet with water.
He seems to want to wipe it with his…
"Whatever." he said and waved his hand. “You still have this habit of sneaking in the middle of the night and yet, you are afraid of ghosts. Huh. ” He said softly to his ears.
Before he could respond, he turned around and left him speechless. Then a smile flashed on his lips. He did not forget about her after all. It still remembers this habit of his.
Somehow, that brought happiness on her heart. There was a smile on her face as she climbed into her room carrying a plate of cake and water.
As he smiled, he could not help but remember everything between him and Marcus. Where did it all start with the two of them…
