Kyle brought his face closer to her, kissing her on the lips again.
However, it was just a brief kiss before he let her go. She stumbled back a bit, and he steadied her with one hand while grabbing his shirt with the other. He gently pushed her to the back and stepped forward.
He held the shoulder part of the shirt and flicked it hard, sending sprays of water outwards. A slight scream was heard as a person who was outside got hit by the shower of water.
"Oh, I'm sorry," Kyle said innocently, "I didn't know anyone was there."
Dina had covered her face when the water came spraying at her, and by the time she looked up, Kyle had already worn the shirt and was buttoning it up. She was so focused on trying to see the bare skin that she didn't even bother to look up at his face at all, or answer.
Kyle smirked and turned his body to face Sari, who was behind him. Dina tsked as she barely managed to see the firm pecs as it flashed by when he turned.
To think that this person had hidden such a physique under such baggy clothes was such a waste. It didn't make sense that he would hide it, and suspicion arose in her heart.
She looked up to study his face, but Kyle had his head lowered and was facing away from her. Dina wanted a closer look at that face, as she did feel he had looked familiar but had put it down to having seen him at the convenience store.
Maybe it was something else?
She didn't remember anyone with so much facial hair, though.
Kyle took Sari by the hand and walked passed Dina and her friends as they went out of the bathroom. He had brushed his hair to cover his forehead and eyes a bit and squinted his eyes in order to hide them.
They managed to leave without Dina or her friends stopping them (or talk to them). As Dina watched them go, she frowned as she tried desperately to think. She hated when something seemed like it was right at the tip of her tongue but she couldn't remember.
"What's wrong, Dina?" one girl asked, upon seeing that expression on her face.
Dina shook her head.
"Nothing," she mumbled, "Let's just wash this. Urgh. My night is ruined."
As for Kyle and Sari, they went out of the school building. Going back to the dance hall wasn't that suitable even though the damp shirt didn't really bother Kyle. Sari insisted, saying that he should go back and change out of the dirty clothes.
Kyle looked apologetically at Sari, and said as they headed out, "I'm so sorry that your prom was ruined."
Sari smiled, and shook her head, saying, "It wasn't."
"But it's still so early," Kyle said, looking at the time. Only one hour had passed from the time they arrived, so they had another 3 hours to go before her curfew. He sighed.
"Why don't we go back to your place first?" Sari suggested.
Kyle blinked and then looked at her in surprise.
Sari, upon realising what she had said, widened her eyes and smacked his arm as she said, "For you to change! Then we can just have a normal date elsewhere. With Kitty!"
Kyle grinned, kissed the top of her head and agreed.
.?.?.?
Sari gulped.
Even though this had been her idea, to actually be at Kyle's house right now made her extremely nervous. This was the first time she was at his house, and she was partly curious, partly scared.
It was a guy's house.
Her boyfriend's house.
At night.
Only both of them were there.
She gulped again.
Kyle opened the door and led her in.
She was surprised that it was a house, actually, rather than an apartment. It was a small single storey house, and located deeper into one part of the housing estate. It was only 10 minutes away from the convenience store that he worked, so everything was accessible.
It was the 'last' house at a cul-de-sac, and though the house itself was small, the lawn area was huge. It was as if the house was an island in the sea, with the lawn being the 'sea'.
Sari was completely ignorant of market prices and value of houses, so she had absolutely no idea that the small house that Kyle lived in, was actually valued at a couple of million.
It was located in one of the golden areas, and the value of the land itself was high. Land was scarce nowadays, and the more recent housing developments would be apartment blocks. Landed properties, like Kyle's, was rare and thus, expensive.
It was getting to be something similar to the situation with Country Sg. Scarcity of land, rise in population - you get the idea. If you owned a house, it meant you were rich.
"You live here? All alone?" Sari asked breathlessly, her heart lurching thinking of how lonely Kyle must be.
"Yeah, no biggie," Kyle said, "I have Kitty now, right?"
"I'll give you a tour later," Kyle said, "You can wait for me in my room while I shower and change."
"Huh?" Sari said, this time it was her blinking in surprise.
Kyle grinned, "Kitty stays in my room. Don't you want to play with her?"
"Oh," Sari said, blushing.
They passed the living room, and into Kyle's bedroom.
When Kyle opened his door, Kitty was already sitting there on the other side, her eyes in excitement as she waited expectantly. She pounced upon his feet the moment he opened the door, and he scooped her up immediately.
She was purring loudly as he gave her a few kisses on the head and passed her to Sari.
"Make yourself comfortable," Kyle said as he took out some clothes from the closet, "I won't be long."
Sari nodded as she watched Kyle enter the bathroom.
