Chapter 154: Dating My Ex-husband

~~~It took one look and forever lay out in front of me. One smile then I die, Only to be revived by you. There I was thought I had everything figured out. It goes to show just how much I know about the way life plays out. I take one step away and I find myself coming back to you, my one and only, one and only you, you~~~

-Your Song (Julie Anne San Jose)-

"Uhuh?" She then seemed excited.

"I said I'm dating," I repeated. "But he's not here and I was the one who broke the vase. So, would that be okay for an answer?" I still had to lie to keep her from walking into my room.

"Well..." She chuckled at me. "I love that answer, Sam," she winked and I rolled my eyes. "I'll take it for now."

I took a deep breath when she walked back and sat on the couch again.

"How long have you been dating?" She was staring at me when she asked.

"Just a few days ago... uhm... or more," I shrugged.

She said nothing but her eyes were still on me.

"What? Why are you looking at me like that?" I couldn't help but ask as I started to feel awkward with the way she was looking at me.

"Nothing, I'm just happy for you,"

"Really?"

"Yup, and I can see how happy you are too. I guess whoever this man makes you happy and inspires you as it shows through your eyes. You're blooming, girl!"

"Tss! Blooming your face!" I said, trying to hide the blush that crept into my face. "So now that you already got your answer, would you please do the honor of leaving my room so I could start cleaning?"

But instead of doing what I said, she sat comfortably on the couch and it took another ten minutes before she finally decided to go out.
