Chapter 9
I sat on the bed and started to unpack my bags. The sun outside shined so bright. And it was early. Too early to call my parents as well. I walked in the hall while using my phone, I didn't look up. But then I bumped into him. His skin was so soft. He held me with his hands on my arms and said " I know it's new for you to keep the thought of you not alone here. But try". He smiled and moved his hands away. I stood there with my phone in my hand. Looking at him as he took the t-shirt he had on his shoulder and started to put it on.
I walked downstairs. With a red face and a fast beating heart. What was happening? I heard him walk down. " I am sorry, you probably have a boyfriend..". He looked in my eyes with an apologizing look. " I.. Don't have one, don't worry, I am fine". I said with a calm, relaxed voice.
" I am going to town. I know it's only 9.30 but I have to find a job, I can't stay here forever". He said that and walked out. And I wanted him to stay.
I thought of him using his phone up find around in town. Him walking and asking for a job. A home. I walked up again and kept on unpacking stuff.
After 2 hours of me walking around, opening windows and looking around, I called my parents. I told them everything. Not Jake. He wasn't in the picture I painted. They were proud I made it and I took such responsibility.
" hi, I am back". I heard Jake call from downstairs. " I am here, upstairs!". I called back. " I found a job. At the supermarket. But they want me to live in this town, I looked around but no one wants a roommate". He said as he stood in front of me. I say on the bed, used my phone then locked it cause I was talking to him.
" how much time do you think you can arrange a place to live?". I asked him and he gave me a smile.
