01: Tito Hopes

"Bye! See you around!"

I smiled at them and waved until they left. We just finished making a presentation for our one day at school, it was late afternoon because we still had problems with the wifi so it was necessary for one of us to load just to make our presentation.

I picked up my bag and stuff from the floor, I slung it over my shoulder but I stopped and looked up, I frowned when I saw Videlle just sitting and looking ahead, watching soccer. I guess he didn't realize that we were going home.

"Hey, come on! I've got somewhere to go!" I said and patted him on the shoulder, he turned to me and raised both eyebrows.

"Is it over?" he asked. I frowned and tortured him.

"Isn't it obvious?" I replied philosophically and turned away from him, I sped up my walk so he wouldn't catch up with me but with his height and the length of his legs he still caught up with me.

"Just kidding, turn around," he said as I followed him behind me "Please kiss me," when he said that I stopped walking and immediately looked back at him.

"Just try to smear my face with your saliva, I'll sink you to the ground." I said angrily and turned my back on him. I didn't hear another word from him until we arrived at the car park.

"I have yet to pass," he suddenly said. I just nodded as a response.

I frowned because every time he was with me, he was always going through something. It doesn't matter, it's also a waste of fare if he commutes and stops. 

I opened the back seat and put my bag there, Videlle did the same, putting the bag in the back seat. I opened the driver's seat and got in- Videlle followed. I started the engine and grabbed the steering wheel.

"Where are you going?" I asked while warming up the engine.

"Nic house, I'll just be there for a moment. Just to get something." he answered, I frowned and turned to him. I nodded and looked straight ahead and left the car park.

Until we were halfway through the flight, I didn't hear another word from Videlle. Maybe he was also tired from playing while waiting for me.

I suddenly remembered Dad's opening later so I slowed down when the stop light came on, I looked at Videlle for a moment and immediately went back to the front when the light turned green.

"Dad's restaurant is opening, are you going?" I suddenly asked.

"Is that where you're going?" He asked, I nodded in response. 

"Ofcourse, yes. Would you are there, right?" He replied. I didn't answer, I just nod my head. 

Until we got to his classmate's house, he was only there for a while. When he entered the car, I saw that he was holding a plastic and it looked like their jersey.I didn't answer until we got to his classmate's house, he was only there for a while. When he entered the car, I saw that he was holding a plastic and it looked like their jersey.

I was also able to take him home immediately to their house because there was not much traffic so I was able to fly my car on the road. He almost cried because of the fear that we will have an accident because I constantly over-take cars.

"Congratulations, Mr. Devera!"

Everyone shouted as Daddy cut the tied flower, I clapped my hand and smiled to greet the guests who attended the opening of Daddy's restaurant. I went inside first to look at it, because I had not peeked at it since it was inprogress until it was finished. I looked around and grabbed the picture I saw on the display on the bookshelves that hang on the wall.

So... she displayed it here. It's been a year since she was moved on, I'm glad for her...

"Devonce!"

I immediately turned around when I heard Dad call my name, I put the picture frame back in its place and walked towards to him. I smiled when I saw him with the old man. I felt awkward, this was the first time Dad introduced me to his employees.

"This is Devi, my daughter," Dad smilingly introduced the old man "Devonce, this is Mr. Vergara. Partneredship with our restaurant," My eyebrows slightly raised when I heard that. I thought he was an employee! I just thought. I don't know about that but it looks like Dad thought it was good

"Welcome to Satomi, Sir! What would you like to order?" I joked.

"Hahaha! You really look like your father! You and your Daddy are both funny," Mr. Vergara laughed, I faked a laugh and scratched the back of my head. I really feel awkward..

"Oh, Mr. Devera, Where is Denver? It's been a long time since I've seen that kid." Mr. Vergara asked Dad. My eyes widened a little. Yes, it's Ate. It's been a week since her last visit.

"May I excuse me?" I asked, Dad nodded as a response. I turned around and walked away.

The reason why I haven't been able to visit my sister much is that I just finished the exam this week. Now that my exam is over, maybe I can give time to my family.

I took the key and cellphone from the pocket of my underwear. My two eyebrows rose when I saw Videlle and Tito Vince, I firmly held the key and frowned even more. Argh, when I need to leave immediately then he will just come now?!

"Hey! Devonce!" Both hands were placed in both pockets walking towards me and the edge of the lip was raised, forming a smirk. I sighed and closed my eyes.

"You're late again, Lourez," I mentioned his name when they got close to my place. I heard the snoring, which is why my brow furrowed, I guess it's going to start again.

"My dad is too slow to walk, hahaha!"

"Delle," Tito Vince suddenly said the reason why we were able to fix Videlle. The corner of my lips turned up and I shook my head, slightly frowning when he suddenly laughed.

"You know, Devi. That's why I voted for you for Videlle," I was stunned by what Tito said, I faked a laugh and scratched the tip of my nose.

Until now, Tito still hopes that I will have feelings for Videlle...

"Dad!"

"I-I'm leaving first." I said goodbye to both of them and left because I couldn't stand the two of them looking at each other, you really can't deny that Videlle is the heir of Tito Vince.

I got into my car and started the car's engine, I warmed it up for a while and drove it off in front of Daddy's restaurant. I didn't get far when Videlle immediately chased me.

"I'm going with you!" he said when I opened the window. I immediately frowned and looked at him for a moment.

"I don't want to! What are you kid?" I said annoyed and was about to leave but he opened the door from the outside. The window was open so he opened it.

"What?! I'm going to my classmate! I'll only be there for a while!" I complain.

He did nothing for a few seconds. I closed the window then I drove away, I looked in the side mirror and saw him standing there and looking at me like a child. The side of my lips rose and I just laughed.

While I was in the middle of the road, I thought of buying Ate some food, she was the only one there, so maybe the nurses were busy and she was hungry too.

When I arrived in front of the hospital, I parked the car and got out of the car. I almost forgot his food. After I got it, I went inside, I went straight to the information area, I walked to my sister's room after signing in the information area.

When I opened the door, I saw her staring at her laptop, she looked up at me and raised an eyebrow. I finally entered and placed the food I bought for her on the side table.

"Are you sick and still working?" I sarcastically asked and sat in the chair near her bed.

"This is not always what I do." She fired back while still focused on her laptop. 

I did not answer and just took the food from her side table and took the contents and gave it to her. I was shocked that she did not take it and still kept looking at her laptop and typing.

I also closed my eyes and sighed "Are you sulking again?"

"Wow, relationship strength," she replied and took the food from my hand and ate it. I stood up and walked over to the chair full of his dirty clothes, I took them and folded them one by one.

"When will you be able to leave the hospital?" I asked.

"Hmm, today,"

My jaw immediately dropped "What? Why did you just tell me now?! Why haven't you fixed it yet?!" I asked the next question and my eyes widened in shock.

"Hmm, I'm just waiting for you."

I didn't answer and just folded his clothes while he was busy with his laptop, when I finished folding I put it in the bag. Sister went inside the bathroom to take a bath, I also prepared the clothes for her to wear.

I left her room first to give her privacy and get dressed, I went to the information area to arrange Ate's papers here at the hospital so she can go out.

"Huh?! Devi?"

I quickly turned behind me when I heard someone call my name, Tim. I immediately smiled at him while fixing the paper I was holding.

"It's been said and it's you!" He said while still shaking his head, I smiled at his reaction.

"By the way, do you mean something too?" I will ask.

"Yes. I'm going first, there's someone waiting for me outside." He said goodbye and walked away in front of me.

I went back to Ate's room and saw her already dressed, I told her that I would take her things to the apartment by car. He also told me that he would just come downstairs because he was talking on his cell phone when I said goodbye.

I took his things and left the room. I pressed the elevator, I waited a few minutes before getting on the elevator. When I got to the bottom, I left the hospital building, I opened the apartment of my car and put Ate's stuff in there, I closed it and opened the driver's seat and got in.

I took my cellphone and texted Ate that I was waiting in front of the hospital, I was scrolling through my I* news feed for a while before deciding to start the car engine. I didn't start it yet. While I was waiting for Ate, I went out of the car to buy something to eat, since I haven't had breakfast since this morning. It's scary, I might be caught in the middle of the flight and the call of nature might also call me.

When I came back, I checked to see if my sister had sent a message and she was right on the way down. Ate also texted me that she was on her way down so I turned it on to take my car out of the parking lot.

My eyes widened when I heard a noise in the back of my car so I quickly got out of the car, I saw even more when I realized I had bumped into a white Montero.

"What the hell..." I whispered and rubbed the bridge of my nose, I'm nervous!I looked up when I heard the door open, my lips parted when I saw the owner of the car I hit. I straightened up and bit the inside of my cheek.

"Y-you hit my car!" I opened up to him.

"You're the one who bumped into my car," He said while the both hand are placed on both of his waits "You don't look in your side view mirror," he added.

"You're the driver, so it means you saw me coming out of the parking lot, you should be the one to adjust, not me because I signaled indicators!" I replied with a frown while looking at him but he immediately turned away when he turned to me

"Fine." he whispered. Wow! It seems like I'm really the one who's wrong here?!

I frowned and did not know what he meant, I frowned even more when he took out his wallet and walked towards me. My eyes widened as he took my hand and laid four thousand on my hand, I looked at him in shock.

What was he thinking?! I can't afford the work done on my car?!

"What the mea--" he cuts me off.

"Bought a new car." that was the last thing he said and left the shock here.
