A few hours pass by and I'm so glad a memory surfaced from my past. However, Averie seems a little strange with my recovered memory. Maybe... she was shocked, I remembered Maison but not her. I wonder why... I sat beside Maison while Averie sat in front of the both of us.
"So, why are you here Maison?" I asked intriguingly.
Maison and Averie looked at each other and waited for one of them to speak up. Maison looks at Averie in silence; hoping she would continue the conversation.
"It's been 3 months, school already started and it was... Maison's idea for you to start school again. He was going to help you on what you forgot in your studies. I understand, you are a new person and we will help you as much as we can."
I nodded.
"When do I start then?" my curiosity consumes me and my joy of spending time with Maison at school entices me.
Maison looks at Averie, then he nods at her and smiles. He pats my head and starts to speak.
"I guess... in a week, I will get everything ready for you. You've only missed a month. I will help you out, so do not worry." I was so excited that everything is starting to fall into place. I got up and crossed my arms.
"You guys seem to think that me attending school would be worrisome but I will be fine!" I ran towards the stairs, then shifted my head to their direction.
"Let me go change, I want to go on a walk with Maison and catch up" I said enthusiastically.
I ran to my room and closed the door. I quickly got change into a casual outfit; blue jeans, black tank top and a knitted cream cardigan with my brown combat boots. After a few minutes of tying my hair up. I picked up my small messenger bag and ran downstairs. When I walked to the living room, I didn't see them sitting on the couch anymore. I started to search around the house to look for them till I heard their voices toward the kitchen. I walk up to them eagerly and then they turned around.
"What were you guys talking about?" I asked in confusion, Averie pushes Maison towards me and smiles.
"Don't worry hun, it's nothing. Just go out for a walk and have fun with your bae." She giggles. Maison slowly reaches his left hand towards my right, he seems nervous.
I gaze upon his eyes and gave him a sincere smile. I think I saw him flush a little bit but hid it with a grin across his face. He slowly grabs my hand and drags me gently towards the door. As I was following his footsteps, I waved goodbye to Averie.
When we were on the streets, I started to follow his walking pace, so I can be right beside him. I would look up to him a couple of times, observing his facial expressions and the way his voice sounded. I was just in amazement, that everything seemed right. After a few minutes of walking, we come towards the plaza, I started to laugh and he looks at me with confusion.
"Why are you laughing?" Maison said curiously. I smirk.
"That's where you work isn't? " Pointing at the Baskin Robbins on the left side of the plaza. He nods.
"I find it ironic, that's all" He starts to chuckle and squeezes my hand tightly. After a split second, he releases his grasp. He stops walking and turns to face toward me. He slowly leans his forehead on mine and sighs. I was confused but I ignored that remark and just held him into my embrace. Then I place my hand into his and pulling him in front of the convenience store.
"Shall we buy something, Maison?" He smiles, we both start walking towards the door and like a old timely gentlemen. He opens the door for me and begins to speak with a sweet tone.
"After you, m'lady." He smiles sincerely and I laugh. I responded with a cute and sarcastic tone. "Thank you, kind sir." As I walk in, he closes the door behind me and walks toward the chocolate section and picks up Mint chocolate. I walk up to him.
"You like mint chocolate?" He froze, took a deep breath and began to speak cautiously.
"Do you remember my favorite chocolate?" I shake my head and then he quickly regain his stature and smile.
"Well, now you know." I look at him with confusion, I wonder why he looked so pale when I asked him that. Very odd... After we bought the sweets. We went on a stroll through the streets of my neighborhood in Milton and tells me what I missed in school but I was a little distracted. I was concerned with the expression he gave me earlier; when I asked him about the mint chocolate...
