Chapter 3: Abs?
The next day, I woke up with a big smile on my face. I'm still sad that Liza moved house, but somehow I felt happy, because of that I managed to talk to Liam and finally knew his name.
It's Saturday so I have to go early to our local post office. Of course, I have to be early to see Liam's face. He looked invigorated and I can sense his happiness. I smiled at him as usual and gave him my "Summer wave." That's right, that is how I planned to call my wave for him and as usual, he ignored me again. I'm flustered by his action. He kept on with what he's doing as if he didn't see me at all.
I tried to ignore the horrible feeling inside me. 'He ignored me!' It kept repeating in my head. To be honest, I don't want to think about it, but my brain won't stop. I couldn't take it anymore and I screamed. "AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!" shook my head and I covered my own ears.
The owner of the post office got surprised, so as he. They rushed to me and asked me what happened. Obviously, I cannot tell them what's in my head. Would you? I just made up a random excuse and the owner bought it, him? Nope!
I went to the storage area to get newspapers to distribute to our neighbourhood. For all I know, he is gone doing his rounds to give bottled milk to some houses. Next thing I heard was a loud thud from the door and the light turned off. I froze as it's too dark and I cannot see anything. I called for the owner's name, "Mr Phillips can you open the door it's too dark in here." I searched my pockets for my phone, I remembered putting it in my bag and my bag is inside the glass counter.
I walked to where the door is but I hit something. My head bumped on to something hard but it didn't hurt my head. I went and felt the object in front of me. It can't be the door, it's not that hard and it's a little bumpy. So I went to touch it more and moved my hand lower trying to figure out what the hell it is.
Before I can even go lower, someone grabbed my hand and I tried to scream, but before I can scream louder my mouth was covered by a person's hand. My heart pounded like crazy. In my head, we are being robbed and they'll take me as a hostage, eventually, they'll kill me. So many things are running through my head, all different scenarios.
I heard the person said "Ssshhh," I realised I'm doomed and my tears flowed naturally from my eyes. You can't imagine how scared I was. The person must have felt my tears. He gently walked and dragged me to where the switches are for the lights. I won't dare to look at the robber so I looked down and told him, "Take everything, just spare me. Let me live, I haven't had a boyfriend yet and I'm an only child. Please, let me go, I won't look at your face, I swear I will not tell a soul just please let me live."
The next thing I heard was a thunderous laugh. I figured it's a man. His laughter sounded familiar. I couldn't take it anymore and I look at the robbers face. It's him! It's Liam! I went and attacked him for scaring the shit out of me. I hit his body and arms. I punched him as hard as I could. I was so mad at him I decided to just walk away. I told the owner I'm not feeling well and I won't be able to do my rounds. I totally forgot about my bag, I just wanted to leave that place.
I locked myself in my bedroom, I thought it through, he is mocking me. He pretended to be nice to mock me. How cruel can he be? I wanted to hate him but for some reason, I couldn't.
I didn't eat lunch and it's nearly dinner time. My mum started to get worried. She knocked at my door, she said, someone is looking for me and it's the third time he came to look for me.
I opened the door and came down. Liam was sitting on our couch. He has my favourite Dulce de leche Häagen-Dazs Ice Cream in his hands. I'm still mad at him. I stood there and looked at the window. My parents prepared our dinner so I was alone with him.
He stood up and walked towards me, I didn't look at him.
"I'm sorry. It's not my intention to scare you. I wanted to prank you to cheer you up but I terribly failed and I made you cry." He held the ice cream to me.
No! No! No! I cannot be coaxed by ice cream!
