"Collin, cousin!"The man hugged Collin and looked at us
"Who are they?"
"Drake, they are my friends. Allison and Aviery"Aviery smiled and I just nod at him
"Hi Im Collin's cousin Drake, Im in Legal management"he introduce himself to us
"Nice to meet you"I smiled
"Kuya Collin!!"A girl hugged him and I think she was 8 or 9 years old
"Cassidy, happy birthday!"Then he kissed her on her cheek
"He is family oriented"Aviery whispered to me
I just watched him talking to his sister when her sister looked at us with confusion.
"Cass, meet my friends Allison and Aviery"She smiled at me sweetly
She's pretty and she has an angelic face. Her voice matched her personality.
"Hello!, Kuya I thought im gonna meet your girlfriend"she pouted at him
"Allison is his girlfriend"Aviery said and pushed me
"G-Girlfriend? No"
"Really? Is she?" I was shocked when she dragged me inside the venue. Aviery!
"Mom, Dad. Kuya has a girlfriend!"She smiled and her parents turned to me . I smiled awkwardly
"You're?"
"Im Allison"I said while looking at Cassidy
"You're pretty and are you still studying Allison?"
"Mom"Collin was beside me and stared at me with a worried face
why would he be worried?
"Im still studying, Im in a medical courses"I said and averted my eyes from them
"You remind me of Eina"His mom said and lightly laughed
"Ate Allison, please enjoy at my party"Cassidy said and went to her friends
"What will we do now?"I asked him
"There is no more to do, maybe you could rest or walked beside the beach"
"Where is Aviery?"
"She said she needs sleep"I just nodded and looked at the children playing beside the beach. I smile a bit because of them.
"Do you love children?"he suddenly asked
"Yeah, it keeps reminding of the beautiful past. My brother and I are like those two"I pointed the two kids "The brother is there to protect her sister, the sister depends on him"
He was staring those kids and the girl saw him, she ran towards him and hugged him.
"Hi Lee"
"We built a castle!"she pointed the sand
"Wow! Its so pretty!"he smiled at her and looked at me
In the future he will be a good father to his children. They continue to built the castle and Collin dragged me into the beach. I was wearing a dress and Collin folded his pants up. I removed my sandals and walk into the water with him. I could see the fishes in the clear water.
"Are you coming back to Italy? To your hometown?"he asked while touching the water
"Yeah, my mom needs me there"
"Then I'll make you happy while you were still here in Australia"He said and opened his phone "Let's take a photo, a memory photo"
He placed his phone infront of us and we both smiled at the camera. I get tired of walking and we went back inside.
"Ate Allison, let's take a picture!"Cassidy said and she gave her phone to Collin. I smiled and she was hugging me.
My phone suddenly rang and saw my father's name. I excuse myself to answer it.
"papà, hai chiamato?"(daddy, you called?)I talked to him in Italian
"Non riesco a contattare tuo fratello, sai dov'è?"(I can't contact your brother, do you know where he is?) He always asking about my brother and not me!
"non lo so"I told him even I know where he is
"Ok, ti chiamo Allison più tardi"(Okay, I'll call you Allison later) then he hung up the call
How I wish you could also asked for me dad but you dont. You only cared about the money.
"Hey, are you okay?"Collin tapped my shoulder and I stared at him
"Yes, Im fine" I smiled
"Let's eat!"Aviery dragged me inside and everyone was starting to get the food on the tables. Aviery handed me the plate and start to pick up she wanted to eat. Collin was behind me.
"Do you like seafood?"
"Yeah"he shrugged, I sat between Aviery and Collin. The children were started to go to the beach,including Cassidy.
"Children really likes beach"Aviery said and ate her salad
It's already 8pm in the evening, as i put my plate beside the tables. Collin hold my hand and pulled me into the room.
"Who's room is this?"I asked him
"You will be staying here, Aviery has her own"I sit on the bed and stared the view from outside
"It's really pretty"I said without looking at him
"Yeah it's pretty"he said while looking at me
He is Arkin's bestfriend and I cannot fall inlove with him. His eyes were shining when it landed on me. I could feel the sparks but thi is wrong
"Im going to the bathroom now, im going to changed"I told him
"See you tomorrow then"he said and left my room. I sat in the bed and rested my hand on my chest.
This can't be happening! I decided to take a bath to calm myself. After I changed my clothes, i scroll through my instagram and saw Arkin's post with Trina. They look so happy together.
Collin Teo Alcantara tagged you in his story. I tap on it and saw us in the beach, he captioned "I saw a pretty smile today"
He even post it on his IG account but he didn't tagged me. Many of his friends commented
Niko04: Pretty smile means?haha
Aviery: You look good together, can't wait to become another level lol haha
Cassidy: Ate Allison is so pretty!
I was smiling at the positive comments when Arkin commented on his IG's post
Arkinwimp: Collin, are you courting her?
I put my phone aside and went to my bag to get my skin routine, I apply it on my face while reading any comments of his post.
I received a message from him
Collin: Are you still up?
Allison: Yeahhh
Collin:Look at this
He sent me a screenshot of the convo of him and Arkin. This man is traitor! AHAHAHA..
Arkin: He was my ex Collin
Collin: I know but I kinda like her dude
Arkin: Stay away from her!
Collin: make me, unfortunately you can't
Collin has a talent make people pissed off, I decided to go to sleep. I was wondering where is my brother now.
I woke up in the morning by the sun and I immediately went to the bathroom to take a shower and changed into my jeans and top. As i opened the door, Collin was there and he brought me some breakfast
"I didn't know you're a waiter now"I chuckle and I let him in
"Only for ya"He said and sat in the bed and he captured the breakfast
"Smile!"He said and I smile widely
"Don't post it, we're on the issue again because of your post"
"Who cares?"He said and take a bite of the bread in the tray
"Im gonna drive you both to your condo and my family already left the beach"I shrugged and drink the water in the glass he brought
"You might be busy on monday?"I asked him
"Oh yeah, I have basketball training for the game"He said and fixed his hair "You will watching the game right?"
"When?"
"Two weeks after"I checked my calendar if there is conflict with my subjects and gladly there isn't
"Nope, I'll be watching you in the court"I smile and he look at me
"That's great, I can't wait!"He is been around me since I let him to be my friend and everyone thinks that he is totally my boyfriend
"Does being a varsity affects your grade?"I asked him while dipping my bread in the milk
"It depends on you, how can you handle your academic and sports"he answered and checked his phone
"Niko is calling"he said and answered it in a loud speaker
"Dude did Arkin and you fight?"Niko asked
"It's not big deal bro, it will pass. You know him he is short temper in things"he said and stared the sunset outside
"Is it because of Allison?"
"Allison is not involved in it Niko, beside he has no right right now on Allison. He hurt her badly"He stared at me and wipe his lips with the tissue
"You know Allison is his ex"
"So? He didn't treat her right"Is it my fault that they are fighting now?I sighed and look at him
"Collin don't make him mad at you. We've been together since highschool"
"Yeah you're right but it doesn't change my perception and he must accept that I like her"He whispered the last part that I didn't hear
He hang up his phone and continue to eat our breakfast, We went outside the building and put my things inside his car.
"Where is Aviery?"
"Aviery already left she said she have work" That woman is so busy with her life
I went inside of his car and he followed inside, he was driving quietly and I turned on the music.
"I like this song!"he said while smiling
"You're inlove then"I mocked him, he just laughed a bit
Its been 1 hour of travel until we reached our unit, he stared at me and smile.
"Thank you Collin"
"Anytime as I said Allison im 24/7 free if you need someone to talk to" I smile and turned my back at him
