I'll tell every one in the world that you are the only one that matters.

Pearl's POV

I shook my head at him  struggling my shoulder's.  No body knows if he is an murderer on anything!  

He insists on taking me home.

While I'm here almost blazing my eyes out sending him dead stares, he simply pulls the car and makes a U-turn relaxed as ever.

"You can be an ex-murderer! I won't give you any  directions."

His all attention was  concentrated on the road, not looking at me,  he muttered,

"Oh trust me darling,  you're the first  thing i wouldn't  like to murder.  So no, im not an ex-murderer. Well,  believe it  or not."

I didn't speak again. Should I just give him my home direction?   He is still a stranger, I'm sure mom wouldn't be pleased hearing that a stranger brought me home.

Finally Mr.impossible, looked at me with a smirk on his face.

"You  don't have any other option  unless you beg to me to take you home. The bus is long gone by now. "

"Because of you. " I rolled my eyes.

"Magic word sweetheart,  Magic word ."

Does he  have the slightest idea of how stubborn he is? And how i  really want to scratch the smirk off him.  If i reach work late, it's because of him.  I heaved a sign  and gave him the direction.

All then drive we were silent. 
I had gripped in shock the entire journey to home.  I was glancing out the window while  he was still focused on the road. Only twice I felt like he was watching me with the corner of his eyes.

This would be the first boy who stepped inside our home since along time .

Finally we arrived at my home and he packed  the  car outside.  When I stepped outside his car,  he did as well. I immediately interrupt him .

I raised my brow in confusion, "Where are you going? "

" Well, I drove you here, it wouldn't hurt if you offered a glass of water to me." He laughed.

I just ignored him and walk inside the house. I know he is  behind me, I could hear his foot steps.

   I stopped  and say Hi to  Kendall and Lucy  who are sitting in the living room. They both  said hi back and looked behind me giggling.

I turned to  look at him. "What are you doing?" That's the second time a said that word in a day.

"What? " He placed his hand on his chest innocently " I winked at them , that's all. No body resists my charms.  "

I rolled my eyes. You are so wrong cause I do resist them.

"Cold drink?" I asked.

He noded .

I partially opened the jar of Icy water and poured some on his cup   and gave it to him. Afterwards I filled a glass with tap water and drank  a little from it.

"Your home is so modern." He stated as he sipped on his water.

Kendall walked inside the  room with Lucy  and grabbed two home made cookies that mom had bake yesterday. They last glanced at me and Silas,  Silas once again winked at them then look at me licking his lips with his tongue wiping away the water. 

Oh God.

When they were out of sight, I used my water and threw it all above his head. 

"What The Hell was That for? " He shivered his eyes wined in confusion.  Ha! Look is confused now!  I smirked playfully.

"That was for Winking at my sister you y-you poompoface ."

"Hmm, a wildcat, I like it." He moved his head backwards and laughed  driving his hand on his long lighted brown hair shaking the water away.

"I'm wet and it's your fault. He said as he places his hand all the way down to his shirt wanting to take it off. 

Oh holly mother he is about to take his shirt off! 

"No. " I chocked out.

"What?"

"Don't take it off." I bantered out like a mad woman.

"Okay then, Give me a shirt. "

"Okay. Don't touch anything. " I said and run upstairs to mom's  room and took one of Dad's old shirt that mom kept since the day they got divorced.

I hanged the shirt to him and showed him where the restroom is. I promised that I will tell mom I just gave a stranger Dad's shirt.  Even through  what Dad kept us, mom still loves him. Mom still hopes that one day he would change, explain why he did what he did to us and drepend. 

Silas walked inside the kitchen with one hand on his  pocket and other holding his wet shirt , dressed on  my Dad's shirt.

The Shirt was a bigger size but he looked fitted on it.  I really don't know why I poured him cold water. Wait I know.  He was flirting with my sister. Really is a poop face.

"I really  like this shirt.Now, I have to go.  Goodbye  Bye Wild Cat. "

"Its  Pearl not  Wildcat ." I correct him. He didn't seem to care he walked out from the house with a creepy smile  and drove away. 

I walked upstairs to  my room,  take a shower, dressed in my Work form and headed outside to work.

I thank the lords that I'm no near late for work and stepped inside the bakery.

Later on after Work,  I bought a Burger on my way to the bus station and took a bus.

I was busy like all the other days, but I thanked Claire for taking everything I needed out of the kitchen so I wouldn't have to face the arrogant Chief.

It's almost evening now, and I'm  inside the public bus, eating my Burger happily. 

I closed the door behind and find Mom baking chocolate with nuts   Cookies.

"Hi sweetie. " Mom greeted me while I placed my big brown  leather bag on the kitchen chair next to the counter.

"Hy mom." I replied and grabbed  the bowl of cookies and place it  in the oven.

"How was work? " I asked,  She is usually not this early.

"Tiring honey."

" If you want I can look for another job to help you more, you always work and work I never see you relaxing unless after work, that's not good for your health mom."

We just so  lucky to even have a house of three bedrooms  that Dad left for us. It's a small house with small rooms but we don't care about that.   We call it a blessing for us.

Mom stopped and placed the last cookies in the lower part of the oven all together.

Kendall came down from the stairs and we take a seat on the couch.

" It's a job as a mother to work for my children,  I feel even guilt for seeing you work while you are in college. Im okay darlings,   don't worry."

I  nodded my  head and Kendall and I give her a tight hug. The last thing she will need is a lecture from her  own daughters.

"So mom, " I broke the silence, they both look at me with questioning eyes. I struggled my shoulders and played with my fingers nervously.

"I accidentally poured water to a guy and had to give him one of Dad's old shirt, I hope you won't mind."

Not  accidentally!  The voice at the back of my head bragged me.

"If you didn't mean it  then it's okay honey. A single shirt won't hurt." She smiles.

I grabbed Kendall and left mom inside the kitchen to do her final retouchings in the cookies.

"Si,  could you help me on my homework?  " Kendall asked as we take a sit in her bed.

"Sure."

" You're the best ."

She smilled and walked over her backpack removed two note books out . I explained to her what to do  and also did my own  homework inside her room together. The teacher of math  today gave us a bunch of home works to be presented tomorrow.

After half a hour we were done,  tired,we both threw ourselves on bed.

" Who was the guy of today? He is so Cute , he winked at us twice. Twice." She said,  showing two fingers.

"Kendall... " I warned.

"Don't lie Si, he looks like those models that they show on TV's ."  Her voice is so  dreamily as she cupped her fingers together.

Great.

Now even my sister has a crush on him.
