130 130. Beautiful Stalker
“Who are you?” Sofia was startled. Her eyes widened in shock. She was like seeing a ghost, a kind one because the ghost brought her dream apple pie. “Are youing with my brother?”
ra couldn’t answer Sofia’s question, who asked her identity. They didn’t even know each other. What would she say to the girl as an exnation?
‘I’m the stalker of this man.’
That would sound very fishy and horribly wrong. She would sound like a criminal.
‘I only intend to give this apple pie to you.’
That would sound far-fetched. Who would believe it? Sounded like an overly good woman like Cindere’s fairy godmother.
Meanwhile, Sofia was still confused about ra’s presence at her house, and she suspected Samuel. “Is this woman making youte home, Sam? Because of her, you didn’t buy me apple pies?”
“Sofia! None of this is what you see!” said Samuel defensively. “I don’t even know who she is.”
“Later I will report your indecent behavior to Mom and Dad,” Sofia threatened. She widened her eyes and ced her hands on her waist. “Father, Mother, you will not believe it. When you two left the two of us at home, Samuel brought a girl home from the side of the road. They spent a happy spanky time in Samuel’s room.”
.....
“Sofia!” he snapped.
Sofia then looked at ra, then grabbed the box of apple pie, and said, “However … thank you!”
Sofia smiled briefly, looked at the box containing the crumbled apple pie, then said again, “Better to have a shattered apple pie than nothing.”
The fragrance of apples and cinnamon entered Sofia’s nose as soon as she opened the small box that she took from ra’s hand. Sofia’s demeanor, which was like a wild horse whose tail was burned, suddenly became gentle, calm, and controlled.
That’s the magic that no other kind of food would do to Sofia. The adoration of the fragrant, sweet and creamy cinnamon apple filling would make anyone suddenly hungry, including Samuel and ra who were now drooling as they looked at Sofia, who was picking small apple pie crumbs with gratitude. Moreover, the delicious smell of cinnamon invaded their noses as well, making them only able to swallow hard because they knew that Sofia would not be willing to share with anyone.
Suddenly, ra’s stomach growled. She had not had time to eat anything. She didn’t even have time to buy anything but shattered apple pie crumbs. Even then, she didn’t eat the pie because she nned to give the food to Samuel.
Sofia nced at her brother while putting her hands on her hips. “Oh my, you brought a girl home without giving her food? Do you even know how to treat a girl? No wonder you got rejected.” The high school girl shook her head, swaying it yfully, making her look like a bunny because of the ponytails on both sides of her head—the way she was going to sleep.
“Come in,e in, please. We’re eating something!” ask Sofia then.
Sofia, who had be a tame dove, gently tugged ra’s hand, who was still dumbfounded and led her into the house, heading straight for the dining table. The girl then called a maid, asking them to set the table.
The maid then opened the cab to take out three white ceramic tes. She brought the cutlery to the table and set it quickly on the table.
“Thanks,” ra said politely as the maid poured apple juice into her ss.
Sofia licked her bottom lip as she stared at the apparition of apple pie in front of her. The young girl then excitedly lifted the parchment paper that lined the apple pie and arranged it on her te. “This is for me. What do you want? Cheese bread, cheese pie, melon bun, apple bun?” Sofia asked ra.
ra justughed at the change in Sophia’s attitude and then took a melon pan wrapped in baby pink food-grade paper. “Thanks, I’ll just take this. You can eat your favorite apple pie.”
Sofia smiled confidently while observing the woman in front of her. ording to her, the woman was beautiful even though her face was a bit sad. When the woman took off her winter jacket, she still looked elegant. She knew how to make every move to stay graceful in other people’s eyes.
Hungry, Sofia immediately sat down and took her te. She used a fork and knife to make it easier for her to eat the scattered apple pie. However, it didn’tst long. She put aside the fork and knife roughly, then ate it with her hands, not caring about manners any more.
Of course, that amused ra even more. She was unable to prevent her lips from smiling when she saw that funny scene.
“I will only eat gracefully when my mother is by my side,” Sofia said defensively as she chewed her food. “Hmm, this is really delicious. You are my life savior. Thank you, yeah, uhm .… What’s your name?” Sofia asked, realizing that she didn’t even know the name of the girl Samuel had brought home.
“You brought a stranger into the house, and asked her to eat together, but didn’t know her name,” said Samuel, imitating Sofia’s nagging style.
Inevitably, raughed and made the cold air in the room melt. Who didn’t like to see beautiful womenugh?
“I am ra Deck—”
ra paused. She remembered what had just happened. She was not the legitimate child of the Decker family.
“Just ra,” ra continued with a forced smile.
Sofia nodded, showing rows of white teeth. “Okay, ra! Eat first. Eat a lot. You need some energy to wrestle with my brother in bedter, don’t you?”
Samuel who was munching on a cheese pie suddenly choked and coughed hard. He didn’t expect his sister to say that. That was gross.
“Hey! Why are you so impolite? I told you I don’t know this woman,” Samuel defended himself angrily. He then turned to ra and looked at the woman with a look of disgust. How could he follow her home? Boldly. “Say something! Exin to my sister! I don’t want any misunderstandings.”
ra then smiled at Sofia and said. “Our rtionship is not that far. We only practiced a french kiss. Never go all the way in bed.”
Sofia’s face suddenly turned red. While Samuel, who was drinking soda, once again spouted the orange liquid in his mouth.
“Crap! How could you!”
