The ch!pping and squeaking sounds coming from the little birds mouths woke Alexa up. She gently lifted her eye lids.

To her greatest surprise, The first person she saw facing her was Ethan. She wi-de-ned her eyes shocked. She let out a loud yell!.

Ethan woke up frightened and fell from the be-d down to the ground. He was also shocked himself. He couldn’t help but yell too. He didn’t believe he was slee-ping next to a guy for the whole night. Eric who was beside them heard the yell. He opened his eyes and was also shocked like the rest. He jumped on his feet to the ground.
Meanwhile, Ken was still asleep on the floor. He even felt comfy.

That night, It seemed Alexa who was drun!kand in the arms of Eric turned the other way and faced Ethan’s side. Thinking about it alone made her irritated.
Why did she have to turn to Ethan after staying in Eric’s arms. Why did she have to see the annoying j£rk face that early morning?. Her thoughts were endless.

“I’m gonna make something. Uhh… Alexa, join us. Just take an extra brush over there and have your bathe. Take your time, Food will soon be re-ady” Eric blurted and left feeling very nervous. Alexa smiled as he watched him leave.

Immediately, He was out of sight. She sh0t her angry eyes at Ethan who even felt it.

“What? Why are you staring at me like that?” He asked feeling quite nervous.

“Why did you sleep close to me? Are you a per-vert?” She almost yelled.

“What? per-vert? We were all drun!k. Whatever happened last night was just our mistake! And won’t you go home?” Ethan shooted and began to walk away. He kicked Ken ha-rd on his bu-ttocks seeing him l@yon the floor.

“Owww” Ken gro-an ed loudly. He sat on the floor and raised his eyes to Ethan who looked down at him.

“Hey!” Ken yelled painfully

“Sleepy head. You had better wake up. Today isn’t your birthday so we have a busy day” Ethan laughed

“But that really hurts” Ken complained

“Blah Blah,Blah…Whatever” Ethan mocked laughing.

“Dude. You are so dead… Come here” Ken laughed too trying to stand up.
Alexa chuckled watching them as Ken chased Ethan around the room.
Ethan managed to sl!paway throu-gh the door but Ken couldn’t st©p his chasing. Alexa followed them watching the pla-yful game.

“What’s this seriously? They are behaving childishly, Ethan even looks funny… and cute” Alexa smiled walking towards them.

Luckily for Ethan, He entered the vacant Bathroom. He shut the door instantly. Ken swiftly held the door knob but as soon as he heard the loud rushing sounds of the water coming out of the shower, He slowly took his hand off the door knob. Alexa noticed this and ran to him.

“Won’t you open it? He isn’t really bathing you know. He didn’t take off his clothes… He just switched on the shower” Alexa hissed
Ken looked at her and smiled.

“I know” He replied softly.

“So? Why aren’t you going after him?”

“I’ve told you before. The Bathroom is his second home. Look, Immediately you hear the sounds of the showers when he’s in there… Just forget about it, He doesn’t wanna be disturbe-d. He’s also showering right now”

“What? Really? He’s showering? So abnormal and absurd! But he still had his normal clothes on! I’m sure he didn’t take them off”

“Sometimes, Ethan has his bathe on his clothes…Especially when he’s kinda very happy, devastated,angry or moody…I guess, right now he’s happy… But I wonder, What made him happy? Ken smiled

“But Uh.. Ken, I’m still curious about this bathroom and home of a thing, I don’t know a thing about–

“I told you before but it’s not in my place to explain things to you. Only, Ethan can tell you everything. I was also curious like you. I’m sure he’s still gonna tell you… But any time, You see him go in. Forget about anything else till he comes out because you would just be distracting him. Okay?” Ken asked
Alexa looked at him and sighed. She nodded her head.

*************************

“Alex, how’s it? You like it right?” Eric asked.

“It’s great. I love it!” Alexa smiled. Ethan looked at her and chuckled loudly. All eyes turned to him.

“Is everything alright with him?” Ken asked to no-one in p@rticular.

“Maybe he’s nuts” Eric laughed. Alexa smiled and cli-cked her ton-gue.

“Ethan… You know I’ve never tasted your meal before. I’ve tasted Ken and Ethan but not yours.. I really wanna taste yo–

“Are you guys re-ady? I’m leaving first” Ethan’s cold voice interrupted suddenly. The guys faced him and kept a moody face.

“Okay… We are gonna catch up with you later” Eric replied
Ethan nodded, took his jacket and car keys and left.

“Did I say anything wrong or annoying?” Alexa sadly asked.

“Oh no, It’s just he doesn’t wanna reply you. I guess he finds you annoying though… That kind of thing but cheer up softball! Mighty Ken is here for you!” Ken yelped. Alexa laughed taking away her sad face.

“Where are you guys going to anyways?” Alexa asked

“We are still shooting our music video” Eric replied

“For which music?. I recently watched your last music video titled “Piper” and I must really say, you guys nailed it especially Eth–Eric. I mean Eric. You were cool then!” Alexa giggled. Eric smiled at her.

“Thank you” He smiled

“Softball… Can you help me with a favour plea-se?” Ken asked.

“What is it?”

“Huh… Can I get your friend’s number?”

“Huh? Which one? Flora?” Alexa raised her eye brows pla-yfully as she chuckled loudly.

“Yeah… Why are you looking at me like that?” Ken asked trying ha-rd not to laugh.

“Do you like her?” Alexa retorted

“Uhh! What’s this seriously?! You are quite funny. Aiish! No. I just find her friendly” Ken replied quic-kly.

“Okay… Okay.. I’m gonna s£nd it to you later. By the way, What music video are you shooting? I’m anticipating that” Alexa smiled

“It’s our recent music collaboration with Krystal Mai” Eric replied

“Really? She’s the famous Singer and Dancer! I know her! Wow! I can’t believe this. You mean you are shooting a music video with her?” Alexa asked stunned

“wi-dening her eyes. She opened her mouth wi-de suprisedly.
Eric laughed nodding his head.

“Wow! Applausé!!” She cheered cl@pping. The guys laughed. “Isn’t she the American Ko-rean Singer Every one has been talking about? I wanna see her. I’m gonna ask for her autogra-ph! Damn, I’m her number One fan! She’s beautiful you know… Uhh, Also she’s also fluent in English!” Alexa rushed her words. Eric kept staring at her as she talked and smiled admist her words.

“You aren’t good in English?” Ken asked

“No… Not really.. I’m learning though. I’m really good in Hangul(Ko-rean Language) as you can see” She smiled. They both smiled too.

“What’s the title of the music video though?” Alexa asked slowly sitting down.

“I Love You” Eric replied staring into her eye ball. Alexa returned the stare back. They both couldn’t take their eyes off.

“Huh?” She asked softly in a whisper.

“It’s the title… ” I love you”…..” He replied softly still keeping eye contact with Alexa who stared back innocently.

“The title is wack and cringey right?–Eric interrupted the silence. He paused and laughed. “The music is cool though” He added.

Alexa finally blinked her eyes. She felt her heart racing. No! She had to tell Eric about her feelings.

“Eric? Can we talk?” Alexa asked without a second thought.

“Huh? About? Is it important?” He asked back.

“Just a few minutes will do. Ken, we are gonna catch up with you later” Alexa said standing up slowly.

“Okay… I’m just gonna continue with my meal” He smiled.
Alexa nodded and began to walk slowly. She was in de-ep thoughts. Her mind went far. Eric followed her slowly from behind.
Suddenly, Alexa hit her leg on the table close to the door and tried to fall to the ground. Nevertheless, Eric was quic-k. He took her up with his arms wra-pped around her w@!st. Alexa also gr@bb£d unto him.

“Are you okay?” He asked trying to put her back on her feet. Alexa felt dumb founded. She looked at him like he was paradise himself. She couldn’t be controlled anymore. If she had the chance, she could have k!$$£d him but she breathed de-eply trying to calm her nerves down.

***********************

Ken was still eating when he had a phone call. He wondered who it could be. He took his phone which was close to him laying on the table. He quic-kly stared at the screen. It was Laura.

“It has been long I heard from her. I wonder what she’s got to say to me?” He thought as he picked the call.

☎ Hello? Laura’s voice was depressed and thick.

☎ Hello? How are you doing?

☎ You ought to be asking why I called. Asking me “How I’m doing” makes me feel we are close! She almost yelled.

“Who’s this b**tch seriously?” He thought aloud as he looked at his phone screen again. He slowly took it back to his right ear.

☎ So? What do you have to say? Be quic-k about it. Ken’s voice looked rou-gh now.

☎ Ethan’s birthday is tomorrow right? Laura asked with after de-ep breath
Ken scoffed loudly. He was quite annoyed.

☎ What’s this seriously? What has been going on your mind? You even forgot his birthday d@t£? What do you mean by tomorrow?

☎ Then when is it? Her voice yelled angrily

☎ Whatever. I don’t even know why Ethan chose to d@t£ someone like you! He has been waiting for you for days. What’s up with y–

☎ Won’t you reply alre-ady? I have a ti-ght schedule today?! Her voice interrupted with a loud yell.

☎ It’s in 3 days. His response was quic-k and short.

☎ Okay, I’m gonna visit him then.

☎ We might not be at home…

☎ So? I have a spare key.

☎ No. Not that… We changed our door lock to pas-s code security.

☎ What? Why?

☎ We just wanted to. We decided to follow with the technology.

☎ So what’s the pas-s code?

☎ Why should I tell you?

☎ Ken. Why do you keep wasting my time?

☎ Oh Goodness! Okay, Okay! I wonder what you are planning now. It’s 1941999.

☎ Okay.. But hold on, What does the pas-s code stands for?

☎ It’s 19th of April 1999

☎ What? That’s not my birthday and neither you guys. Whose birthday is that?

☎ Just Someone.

☎ Someone? Who’s that someone? A girl? Who first thought of the pas-s code huh?

☎ Your b©yfri£nd, Actually It’s is a Gu–Ken retorted with a chuckle

☎ Gurl? She interrupted

☎ What? You should allow me talk first. I should have hunged up on you but I’m quite respec–
Beep! His phone sounded loudly. Ken looked at the phone screen and scoffed.

“What the hell? Did she just hang up on me? Hey!! Darn it, Why did I pick up at the first place!” He loudly yelled.

☎ Hello? Hello? Laura… You got to be kidding me huh?! He yelled angrily putting the silent phone back to his ear. He angrilly stood up, kept his phone on the table and seized the bottle of water on it. He opened it and gulped it down in seconds. He felt embarras-sed and furious.

“What is Softball and Eric even talking about?” He asked trying to take a look at the other corner.

**********************

“Alexa? Huh? Why do you wanna talk about?” Eric asked which broke the undying silence.

“Huh. Can we meet up in three days time?” She asked in a whisper

“Okay. But may I ask why?”

“No. It’s a secret”

Eric laughed at her statement and looked at her with a smile.
“Okay.. So, where do you wanna meet?”

“Uh, Anywhere is okay by me” She replied

“Let’s meet here then”

“Huh? Here? At you guys place?”

“Yeah… You said I should choose the location right?”

“Yeah… Yeah. So time?”

“I should still choose that?”

“Yeah” Alexa replied smiling

“Okay.. Uhm, 5 pm?”

“Good by me! So, Till then?”

“Yeah. Till then, Alexa” Eric replied with a cute smile that made Alexa get drowned again in his attrac-tiveness.

************************

Flora was watching a ballerina show on TV when her phone rang. It was an unknown number. She bent her eye lids and picked the call.

☎ Hello? Who am I talking to? She asked

☎ It’s Ken! He chuckled loudly.

☎ What? Ken? How did you get my–Uhh, It’s Alex right?

☎ Yeah. What are you doing right now?
Flora slowly turned to the TV, she sighed de-eply and answered;

☎ Uh… Nothing actually. You?

☎ I’m getting re-ady for a shoot.

☎ It seems you are busy. Let’s talk later.

☎ No. Wai–

Flora hunged up immediately and turned back to the TV.
Meanwhile, Ken was seen pacing around the room angrily.

“Darn it! Why do they keep hanging up on me!” He asked alre-ady frustrated.

Flora was still immersed in the TV that she didn’t notice tears falling down her cheeks. She imagined when she danced ballet while watching the ballerina on TV.
Her phone rang loudly again and she picked it up without looking. She felt pissed off.

☎ Hey! I said you should call later?

☎ Huh? What’s wrong with you?.
It was Lizzy’s voice. Flora looked at her phone screen with haste. She g@sped and placed it back on her ear.

☎ Sorry babe. I mistook you for someone else.

☎ Okay. It’s fine… I just wanted to remind you of the d@t£ with Mr Anonymous. Lizzy chuckled

☎ Oh yeah. Why? Do you wanna have a d@t£ with him? You’ve got time now?

☎ Yeah.

☎ Good. So when do you wanna meet him? Flora asked.

☎ Uh… Next 3 days, I guess Elizabeth replied.

☎ Okay babe. I’m gonna tell him. I bet he’s gonna be excited Flora gushed.
