It’s the weekend but Luna opted not to go home as she has things to
finish and she prefers being alone so she could focus.
“You coming home?” her older brother asked over the phone
“Nah, I have things to do”
“During my undergrad days I love going home you know”
“Yeah but you never really committed to anything”
“Fair point, by the way how’s the guy you dated back then? Where I
caught you making out”
Luna blushed and answered hastily in defense
“It didn’t work out okay?! Knock it off!”
“Sheesh calm down, just be careful okay don’t bring boys over”
“I’m not twelve”
Her brother hangs up and Luna started to write reports and polish the
minutes of meeting that just occurred. She worked very efficiently that by the
time it was 2pm, all of her task were finished.
“I should’ve gone home… I could still though, but nah” Luna was talking
to herself.
Scrolling through her phone she saw a picture of her and Matthew during
an event. She decided to give him a call.
“Please don’t bother me”
“I miss you too Matthew”
At the background, Luna overheard an old lady rambling over then phone.
“That voice, you didn’t come home too?”
“Yeah, I don’t want to pack up”
“Come over then! I have snacks”
Somewhere, Luna’s brother felt a cold shiver down his spine
“Are you okay?” their father asked
“Yeah, I just got the feeling something happened”
“Is it bad?”
“No”
“Then shake it off”
Back to Luna, she still is trying to convince Matthew to come over but
the latter protested that they’ve been together the entire week, they could use
some break.
“Fine! I’m coming over!”
“Please don’t”
Luna then hangs up the phone.
After a few minutes she knocked on Matthew’s door, much to the dismay of
the latter. Carrying a sleeping bag, pack of clothes and snacks Matthew just
accepted the fact that she cannot be stopped.
Luna sat down besides Matthew’s bed while Matthew lay down on his bed.
“You look great” Matthew said while his face is buried to the pillow
“Huh?”
“Stripes, they suit you” He pointed at Luna’s longsleeves
She blushed and just when she was about to reply Matthew was already
snoring.
