Ch. 8Chapter 8


"And so what? At least I tasted it, what about you?" Jelly even slapped our cousins ​​arm except for my sister's.

"Losers, you're just into imagination!" she said angrily.

I backed away even though I knew the word wasn’t for me it hit me. I didn't want to put Callisto in my imagination, it just came out of my mind and it seemed to attract me to think of him even more.

I felt ashamed to what I thought. I almost jumped after she slammed the cellphone on the table and violently turned around. She was still going through the back but she stopped on the side and gave me a bad look.

I didn't do anything wrong, is it my fault that they don't like farmers. That is an honorable job.

My cousin was still grumbling, even my sister was still planning to gossip.

"Sister, let's do some laundry, here it is!"

"Wait, I'm still saying something here to Mimi!"

She just glanced at me for a moment and looked back at the table, she brought my cousins ​​even closer to her. Imagine that she's acting like a coach of the basketball team and plan a placement.

Don't tell me she's planning something? I was not mistaken after hearing what she said.

"So it's like this, Callisto or any of those farmers, leave it to my sister, alright? I don't want you to suffer so let her be .... So what? Deal?" I heard her say to them, hse even put his hands in the middle. The others followed and laid their hands on each other.

My eyes almost widen because of that. What's wrong with me? I think she's crazy but I'll be more crazy about her plan.

"DEA-"

"Sister, what ?! What time is it? We're going to do some laundry."

She said something else before finally entering and ignored me. She just picked up the laundry basket and walked straight to the kitchen. I also went in and closed the door.

I was shaking and trying to keep from getting bored. She's planning evil. Yes, evil, I don't like her plans. What's wrong with me, and Callisto? I won't deny the fact that he got my attention and even lingers in my mind, but Jelly has already tasted him so I don't do it. His work is honorable but I can't blame my cousin for what happened to them.

I want a one-woman man, not a man ready for everyone.

"And are you angry?" I asked slowly.
Her lips are piercing and acting silent.

I can't figure out if she's still angry about what happened in the past just because I called her to do the laundry. I guess I should have done the laundry alone.

I tried to catch my sister's gaze but she avoided me and was even more busy getting eggs and ham.

I was also pissed. I think her contribution is deep. I slowly chewed the ham while wondering which part she was angry with. Without thinking, I put down the spoon and fork before swallowing what I ate.

“Sis, s-orry," I said softly.

I tried my best to sounds sincere. I tried to catch her gaze again but she just raised an eyebrow.

“Sorry ?! After you yell at me? I'm older than you, Celeste! Maybe you forgot! ” She even pointed at me before munching on the ham.

My lips parted. It was wrong for me to shout at her but I just couldn't stop her, especially since her plans were not good for me to hear.

"Because, why did you tell Cassie that everything will be mine if Aunty will visit?" annoyed, I answered.

"Oh why? You don't want to have a love life? Do you still have a trust issue? Sis, again. Not all men will trade you for another man. ” Her eyebrows met as she glanced at me before looking down again at her plate.

My grip on the spoon loosened and I became discouraged because of it. My mind spontaneously returns to how David was able to give me up for James. I smiled, bitterly. Maybe there are times that when you thought you are compatible and yet, there is someone who is fitter than you. What am I against James if David loves him more? That is a sad truth, but all I can do is to accept and forget.

From there I looked at her with a sharp look. The past must not be revisited.

“Why are you still dragging me, Sis? What if David traded me for James? And at least we haven't gotten married yet and then someone else got pregnant, ” I whispered.

Conscience ate me when I saw how her lips form a thin line. I closed my mouth and annoyed that I pinched my skin on my thigh. I think I'm overdoing it. I know, below the belt is what I said to her, that's why I did stop.

"It's almost like you, Celeste!"

"Almost!" my defense.

She glared, “It's up to you, as long as I want you to have a love life. Any of the three! ”

My patience was running out as I stared at her. I can’t get why she is forcing me to the guests nor even though she herself has no correlation.

“Sis! Stop it. Why? Do you have a love-life? ” I challenged her.

She smirked knowingly, “Secret first, Sis! Here is the list, you have to go shopping now because you are not busy and I will go to the office. ”

When she handed me the paper, she stood up immediately. She chased after a mouthful of ham before finally walking away from the table.

“The house has been cleaned, Aunty will visit here again today! Surprise! ” she postscript shout before running out.

I was left confused by what she did. But her eyes widened after processing what she said that they would come again.

Now that they will come again? Why didn't I think it was the end of the month?

I hurriedly checked the phone for the date and almost closed it after I saw that it is really the end of the month.

I bit my lip after thinking that Callisto might be with them again. I shook my head quickly. What if he is with them?
