107 Summer Outing 5 (1/2)
”Then why don't you?” she answered after losing Nickel from her sight as he swims in the sea.
It is an understatement if she will not feel anything from all his actions, but she is also waiting for him stay that words that he likes her. As the prim and proper principle; it should always be man's to initiate those things, right? Well, from her experience and from the books she had read man is the first one to tell the woman that he likes or loves her.
”I'm just waiting for you!”
Nickel went into the waters and refreshes himself when suddenly May approached him and initiates a talk. ”Hi, Sir!” May greeted him after his short dive; he was unaware that May was already near him. Too close that they can feel each other's breath. May miscalculated her distance that is why they faced that awkward position.
”May!” due to his surprise he unconsciously pushed her but not that hard away from him. He doesn't want to involved in anyone aside from the girl he ever wanted. And he knew that Zoey might them and thinks that there is something between them.
”I'm sorry, you're too close.”
”I'm sorry, Sir.”
Both of them talked simultaneously after that push, it is once again an awkward moment for them. ”Why is it whenever I come closer to him, I cannot stop myself from doing stupid things.” May internally scold her.
And to break the ice from what had happened Nickel apologize again and swam farther away from her.
Back to Zoey after Nickel walks away from her, guys start coming and introducing themselves. Only Carl took the confidence to sit on Nickel's chair. (Nickel's belongings are still there that is why Zoey still considered it to him.) ”Hi! Zoe, can I call you Zoe for short?” he said.
Deep inside Zoey's mind, she thought that Zoey is already short why does this man still make it shorter. Is he that lazy to say her name?
”Zoey is already short and no I don't allow you.” Being bitchy will not harm you isn't? She is already irritated from this from the time he keeps pairing himself to her and for being touchy during the game. To show her sportsmanship, she decided to act cool with it and don't show her other side.
”Wow! Where is your sweet side, Zoey. It is just a name,” he replied with a little cockiness.
