My eyes searched the dark room wildly before a bright light pierced the room. Squinting my eyes, I realized I was facing the wrong place and when I looked ik the other side of the mom, I frowned.. "Oh. It's you" I grumbled as I stared at Miro but I was glad my voice was back. "What? Expecting your boyfriend?"

My face heated up at his words. "He's not my boyfriend."

"But you wish he was, don't you?"

My mouth dropped open as I stared at his amused smile. "I do. I'm not that kind of girl" I rolled my eyes.

Miro rsked, sucking his teeth. "There you go again with that nasty habit of yours."

"What are you going to do about it?" I raised my chin, feeling a smile creep up my face.

"Ah I I see. You think my brother will protect you from me!
