Siya’s Call

Book:Her Popstar Baby Daddy Published:2024-6-3

I am currently in my room sipping on juice. I lost my appetite because of some people. I never hold a grudge against anyone but they were just being petty. My phone pinged indicating that I have received a text message. I am not interested in anything other than just sitting here alone but unfortunately, I can’t do that.
I retrieved my phone from the table, opened it, and looked into it to see that I had received a text from Jeon and how did he get my number? We didn’t exchange numbers yet and you may ask how I know it is Jeon then the text reads ” Andre told me about Isabella and Ashely being rude to you. I will be there in some time once I finish my work until then take care baby.”  So, Andre has given my number to him. Why did Andre have to tell Jeon about it? Ugh!
I dialed Siya’s number wanting to talk to her, she will make me feel somewhat better and some things can only be shared with the girlfriends. I waited patiently for her to answer the phone but she didn’t answer.  I put my phone on the table, went back to sipping on my juice. Maybe she is busy, that’s why she didn’t answer.
My phone started ringing, making me excited because of the call I am receiving. I answered immediately and started blabbering into the phone excited and relieved that she called me.
” I thought you were not going to call me back girl.”
” How can I not when my favorite girl called me.” She said laughing at my excitement.
” So, why are you so excited and stressed out at the same time?” She asked.
” Where do I start from?”  I questioned feeling confused about what to tell her first.
” From wherever you want to.” She answers waiting patiently for me to start.
” Okay, first thing first! Jeon is here.” I told her but didn’t receive any answer from her, making me anxious.
” Hello? Siya? Are you there!” I called out to her.
” Yes, I am still on the line, Enya! And what did you just say?” She asked, confusion lacing her tone.
” I said that Jeon is here in Palm Springs,” I told her again.
” What? Why? How?” She started shooting her questions without any gap in between.
“Woah! Relax, I will answer your questions one by one.” I said before telling her how I met him and how he gets invited to this wedding and how we spend time together.
” So, you both had sex in the car and your room?” She asked excitedly.
” Yes, and we decided to give our relationship a chance and we didn’t give it any name but we are trying to make it work.”
” I am happy for your Enya and I hope you both will end up together.” She sounded genuinely happy for me and I have said this so many times and I will say this again, I am very lucky to have a friend like her.
” Thanks, siya!” I thanked her for always wanting me happy and helping me out of my hardest situations.
” Don’t mention, and why were you stressed out before?” She asked, I forgot about Ashley and Isabella.
” It’s just, there is a girl named Ashley. She is the maid of honor and the bride’s sister. She is interested in Jeon and mocking me and bullying me ever since she learned the truth about us being together.” I informed her.
” what? Is she in high school or what?” Siya scoffed into the phone.
” I don’t care about her being a bully or something else Siya but she involved the bride into this and that is making me worried and annoyed,” I explained the encounter between me and Isabella.
” She is being childish here and don’t you worry about the bride, Enya. Just finish your project, spend time with Jeon and come back home that’s it. Don’t stress yourself.” I know what she is saying is right and I should focus on making this wedding event more successful.
” Yes, you are right and I will focus on the event and Jeon,” I said feeling so much more relieved and relaxed talking to my best friend.
I hear a buzzer going on indicating that someone is at the door. I stood up to check who was at the door, still talking to Siya about how she cracked a deal and waiting for me and Andre to come back and celebrate with her.
I checked through the peephole and I can see a delicious torso and face in my view making me lick my lips. It is none other than my baby daddy standing in front of my door in his beautiful glory. I opened the door signaling him to not say anything because I don’t want Siya to know that Jeon has come, if she knows then she will tease me to death in Infront of Jeon.
I turned around ready to go to my previous position but Jeon stopped me by hugging me from behind making me halt in my steps. I gasped alerting Siya.
” What happened! Are you alright?” She asked with concern.
” Umm, yes! I am fine.” I answered.
” Don’t tell me that you are with Jeon right now!” She asked, doubt lacing her tone, making me choke on my saliva. Jeon started patting on my back, chuckling at me.
” W… what! No!” I denied.
” Ahan! Okayyyy. I Gotta go and say Hi to Jeon.” I can hear her smirk through the phone, I just hummed and said goodbye hanging the phone.
” Why did you do that?” I asked, turning around glaring at him.
” What? What did I do?” Did he ask innocently with a cute pout? He will make me melt on the spot with cuteness.
” Why did you hug me so suddenly!” I playfully glared at him.
” I missed you, that’s why I hugged you as soon as I entered the room.” He says with a pout and puppy eyes which are hard to resist.
” Ugh, don’t give me that look.” I groaned, punching him playfully.
” Which look?” He asked, trying to be innocent but I can see his smirk on his lips.
” Don’t act dumb, you know what I mean,” I said turning around to sit on the chair. He followed me and took the seat beside me looking at the juice glass with a frown.
“Did you just drink this juice?” He asked, frown still visible on his face.
” Yes, why!” I was confused by his question.
” You are just taking juice instead of food, your last meal was breakfast with me right?” He asked, narrowing his eyes daring me to lie.
” I just don’t have an appetite,” I said, bowing my head down.
” Are you still thinking about How Isabella and Ashley behaved?” He asked, concern lacing his features.
” Yes, and No,” I answered.
“Don’t think about useless things and words, Enya. They don’t know who you are and how strong you are and don’t let them play with your head.” He said, placing his hands on my shoulders and caressing them trying to make me understand what I need to focus on.
” Yes you are right, I shouldn’t let them play with my head and will show them what I am if they try to mess with me again,” I said, relieved that Jeon is with me and how he understands me.
“Leave everything behind and let’s order something. I am starving!” He stated holding his stomach for the effect.
” We are starving too,” I said, holding my stomach making him laugh, pulling me towards him.
” What do you want to eat?” He asked, searching the menu. Umm, maybe I can go for Indian food.
” I would love some Indian food. What about you?”
” Fine with me, I will try Indian food too.” He said dialog to the reception to order our food.
He ordered Indian bread which is cooked with butter and Chicken curry which has butter in it, chicken biryani which consists of rice, chicken, and Indian spices. Dessert will be jalebi with ice cream. My mouth is salivating at the thought of these dishes and I hope they taste yummy.
” My mouth is salivating at the thought of Indian food,” I said, licking my lips.
“Mine too, I have never tried them before.”
” This is my first time too and I have heard from Siya that the taste will be on another level,” Siya is half Indian and half American and she has tasted all the Indian dishes.
” Let’s hope we love the dishes,” I said, sipping on my remaining juice waiting for our food to come. Until then we talked about something and nothing and we didn’t notice how much time had passed. I realized one thing is that we don’t need any particular topic for us to talk and we can just talk about anything randomly. What we need is our company together.
