"You just understand when I ask you something to do hu?" Zachary said with anger evident in his voice as he got inside the car and sat in the driving seat. I looked out the window avoiding him. As I turned my head, I saw Kiara in front of our car placing the water bottles in the hood of Kristian's car. Today, everyone was wearing comfortable and casual clothes. I was dressed in a white button-up shirt and sky blue jeans with my hair braided to the side and I was wearing a sneaker. Kiara was wearing the same just like mine, but instead, she paired up her jeans with a pink top.
Zachary, unlike other times, was also dressed casually. He was wearing a bottle green polo shirt with black jeans whereas Kristian wore a black t-shirt with short camouflage pants. Jace wore the same short shorts pairing up with a gray t-shirt and my mom wore a peach colored tunic top with black leggings. Gale and dad wore black polo shirts which Gale gave dad because they would be going for playing golf which was a few distance away from our picnic spot.
As we drove off to our picnic spot I watched as Kristian took another road, because he was going to pick up Loana from her house. I just wished she didn't come because if she did then God only knows how pissed off I will be seeing her hanging out with Zachary.
In the vast grassy meadow field me and Kiara started unpacking the stuff and both of us placed the sheet under a tree for shadow and placed the food basket over it as we sat down and Kiara laughed seeing both of my mom clicking selfies and pictures of themselves near the lake.
"Be careful or else you will tumble down in the water," Kiara yelled at them warning them when they went too close to the edge.
"We are adults," my mom yelled back which made us roll our eyes at them.
"Yay, adults behaving like kids," Kiara spoke and leaned back against the tree fishing her phone out of pant pocket.
"Not again," she hissed which made me look back at her.
"What?" I asked seeing her angry face.
"This dude just doesn't give up!" she showed me a number of miss calls she had on her phone.
"Who is he?" I asked and she shrugged her shoulders "I don't know! It's an unknown number and you know I don't pick up unknown numbers," she answered and turned her phone into flight mode.
"C'mon let's click some photos," she said and I nodded smiling at her. Switching the camera mode she took some pictures of mine and then I took some pictures of her. We even took some selfies and laughed hard at the weirdest one in which my hair blew up covering my eyes, with her made a sneezing face etc.
"What is taking Kristian so long?" I asked her to which shrugged.
"Maybe the snob princess is taking her time to get ready," she answered which made me giggle.
"Talking about her, what is your problem with her? It looks like both of you dislike each other. Though I can understand your pointing of disliking her but what is her problem?" she asked and I heaved a sigh.
"I guess I will have to tell you then," I told her and she nodded her in curiosity.
"What?" she said once I completed telling her everything. I told her everything from what I had heard in that party about her relation with Zachary to the very phone call when I heard her in the background.
"Go and ask Zachary right now about what he was doing with her so late in the night," she ordered me and I crossed my arm over my chest.
"Never!" I said stubbornly and pulled out a sandwich and ate it.
"Give me one!" she said and I took out another one and handed it to her.
"Thanks and why not?" she asked as she took a big bite from her sandwich.
"Because then he will ask me why do I want to know about it. Then what will I answer?" I asked ad she rolled her eyes "Tell him that you like him and you can't see him with some other wo-"
"No, No! Yes, I thought about it in the beginning" I cut her off and she cringed up her face in confusion.
"What? What are you saying?" she asked and with my eyes, I signaled her to look at her back and she looked behind her to find Zachary walking up to us.
"Oh!" she answered understanding why I changed the topic all of a sudden.
"Let's eat now. I am hungry after taking so many pictures," I heard Zachary's mom and looked towards their direction to find them walking towards us. Gale and dad also walked to us followed by Jace and I shifted in my position freeing up some space for them to sit down. As they sat down on the sheet, my dad took the carpet and laid it down for the sheet was too small for all of us to sit on it. Mom and Zachary's mom sat before me and Gale, including Jace and dad sat next to him on the carpet. Zachary walked up to me and picked up the basket and sat on its place next to me.
So he won't stop bothering me?
I looked at him but then felt a nudge on my side.
"What?" I asked Kiara.
"Look what she is wearing!" she said signaling towards the front and everyone including me followed her gaze to find Kristian walking up toward our direction with Loana following him. It wasn't Loana but her dress that made us look at her.
The woman chose to wear a high thigh slit burgundy colored maxi dress with a pair of stiletto and she had a smokey eye and red lipstick makeup on her face. The thing which was funny was the way she walked. Her stilettos dug into the grassy earth as she walked maintaining her balance but she was continuously bending to her left and right side because her stilettos weren't helping her walk on the grassy field. As I looked at her and then turned to look at Zachary he already had his eyes fixated on me.
"Come with me," he said all of a sudden and kept the basket on the sheet before him and then he held my hand and pulled me up with him leaving no room for me to say no.
As, I walked with him I looked back at Kiara who gave me a thumbs up sign and she made a kissing face as if telling me to kiss Zachary. I glared at her and looked back at Zachary who mistook my hand as a leash and me as a dog because he was literally dragging me with him.
