Sophie Esinberg’s POV
I woke up in the morning. My eyes were still puffy and swollen because of all the crying I did last night. I took a deep breath and a strong manly cologne hit my nose, I lifted my head and saw Raymond sleeping beside me. His one hand was wrapped around my waist and he was laying next to me, sleeping profoundly. He looked so peaceful while sleeping. His messy hair was covering his forehead. He looked cute. Just like a child.
Wait.
When did he come here?
Scratch that. How did he come here?
Then I saw my window open. Well, that answered my question.
No, shit! That means Mom doesn’t know about this.
HOLY. MOLY. SHIT
Okay.. this is so awkward. We didn’t do anything of course. But I know my mom, she won’t think straight.
Hell.
Suddenly my fear multiplied a thausand folds when mom started knocking my door telling me to get up.
“Yeah mom” I whisper-yelled. Or at least tried to.
Then I did everything I could to wake Raymond up. But he was sleeping like he haven’t slept in ages. Then I did the only thing which came in my mind.
Yes. I drenched a whole bucket of ice cold water on him.
In my defense I am not at fault. He wasn’t waking up.
“WHAT THE FU-” I covered his mouth with my hands before he could complete his sentence. No, not because he was going to use the “f” word but because my mom is downstairs and probably will hear him. I wish not.
“Shhh-shh mom is downstairs. It’s time for school you should go.” I whispered to him. Suddenly his eyes widened and a smirk appeared on his face.
Something is wrong.
In one quick move he took the bucket from me and poured the left over water on me.
DAMN. It was actually ice cold.
Knowing the fact that I cannot shout at him made his smirk grew wider.
I saw the clock. I should go for a bath or I’ll be late for school.
I gestured towards the window asking Raymond to go out. Yeah. Raymond being Raymond didn’t move an inch. He just smiled at me innocently like he didn’t understand what I was trying to say. After a lot of struggle, kissing and pushing him out of the window, finally Raymond went to his home.
Ughhh. Boys.
I heard a bing sound as a message popped on my phone screen. I read it and relieve washed over my senses. It was from Daniel.
Sorry for last night kim. I shouldn’t have said that. I was not in the right state. I’m sorry please forgive me. Let’s start again with a clean slate?

I’m happy that everything is back to normal now. Even though it’s weird , I mean for two whole weeks Daniel wasn’t talking to me but now he is back to normal.

Sophie Esinberg’s POV
“OH MY GOD!!!! I AM SELECTED. I CAN’T BELIEVE IT.” I squealed in excitement. Hugging Lavy.
“C-can’t breath Soaf” she finally huffed.
“Oh I’m sorry” I exclaimed. I didn’t realize I was hugging her so tightly. Saying that I was happy would be an understatement. After all, I got selected in Amanda Corporations. I mean that is the best company for research. It does all the great projects to help the government. I always wanted to be it’s member. They have all the great scientists and the best Research Laboratories and the latest technology equipment. Isn’t that amazing?
