My Ex Next Door

Selena watched Kirby as he unlocks the door, she has been crushing him since she was ten, and thought that they will be together but, unfortunately, the man has a girlfriend whom his parents want him to marry.

She heard from Daniella that it's a fixed marriage. Which means he doesn't love the woman. She tried everything to know his feeling but, he's been avoiding her like a person with a contagious disease since she came back from her vacation five years ago.

She was heartbroken when Kirby didn't attend her 16th and 18th birthday. She thought about moving on but, Daniela said that she needs to know Kirby's feeling first so she will have no regrets.

So today, she had one mission, and that is to know Kirby's real feeling.

When they entered his apartment, she smelled the manly scent around. She looked around and found that everything was the same as the last time she was here.

The living room was the same or even looked bigger because of the furniture around, he only had a sofa, a center table and a television pasted on the wall.

There's only one bedroom in his apartment since he's living alone and, his parents were living in the other city. She heard he was living with his parents when he started to work as Evan's assistant but, after he got the promotion and became the Vice President of the company, the man moved to the city to focus in his work.

"You and the triplets can stay in the bedroom" Kirby spoke.

"ok" she replied and ask the triplet to wash their body.

Leo and Ethan went to the bathroom first after throwing their backpack to the couch, while Alexa opened her sling bag and took the money her uncle Ken gave and handed it to Kirby.

"Is this enough to pay for a room for two nights?" she innocently asked.

Kirby was stunned to see Alexa giving him the money. He squatted to adjust his height to her and smiled.

"Since you're so pretty you can stay here for free" he winked at her.

Kirby chuckled when he saw Alexa's chubby cheeks blushing, he got up and looked at Selena.

"have you eaten dinner?"

Selena shook her head in response.

"ok. You and I don't know how to cook so what do you want me to order?"

Selena observed him, the glasses he had was making his aura sexier, and unlike before, his voice became more manly that every time he talks, her heart pounded like crazy.

She had never seen his body but, she believed it to be as toned as her uncle's body. She started imaging herself touching Kirby's body, kissing him. With all those thoughts in her mind, her lips curved a smile.

(I can die in peace if he allows me to touch his body) she daydreamed

"stop daydreaming and tell me what you want to eat" Kirby pinches her cheeks.

But Selena's mind was still in paradise, she watches all the movements of his lips in slow motion, so when she heard his question all she could say was.

"you"

The man in front blushed but, Selena didn't notice it. She bites on her lower lips while smiling from ear to ear like a psycho.

Meanwhile, Kirby cleared his throat repeatedly and snapped a finger in Selena's face to get her back.

Selena blinked and pouted her lips, "since I can't have you, can you at least allow me to fantasize you?" she murmured but, Kirby heard it.

"what?" he asked in surprise.

Selena covered hand on her lips, shocked that Kirby heard it. Her lips quivered as she tries to find a good explanation by what she meant.

(Damn it!, I should stop listening to Daniella's advise) she curses inside.

She gulped repeatedly and sweat, "I – I mean nothing I didn't say anything" she stuttered.

"No, I heard you said something" Kirby tilted his head in confusion.

Selena rose an eyebrow.

"really? What did I say?" she asked

"well... since I can't have you, let me fantasize you" he spoke in an unsettled tone.

Selena bites her lips, Kirby's voice was like a piece of soft music in her ears.

"ok" she replied with a playful smile on her lips.

Kirby creased his brows in confusion.

"what ok?" he asked.

"I said ok. I allow you to fantasize me" as she said those words, Selena turned her back before Kirby could response.

Inside, she let out a wicked laugh (I am so clever!) she blurted and went to the bedroom with Alexa

Before she could touch the doorknob of the bedroom, Kirby rushed and stopped her. She looked at him in confusion after seeing him in panic.

"what is it?" she asked innocently.

She could see Kirby's Adam's apple moved, anxiety was written all over his face.

"I - I didn't expect you to come here and the bedroom is dirty. Can you wait" he spoke in a stuttered voice.

Selena narrowed her eyes in suspicious, and curiosity rushed in her body.

"ok" she spoke and turned around.

When she heard the door opening, she let Alexa's hand go and ran inside.

Her lips parted in surprise as she scans the whole room. The bedroom was big but, she didn't expect it to be clean.

"this is not dirty" she murmured.

She was expecting to see a room with a lot of clothes or dirt around but, instead, it was clean, not a single dirt was on the floor.

She roamed her eyes around.

There's a king size bed with a brown sheet in the bed matching with the brown curtain hanging on the window. The wall was painted in white and the only furniture in the room was the tall closet, bed and the bedside table with a lamp on it.

In the corner of her eyes, she saw a big frame hanging on the wall, she' about to look at it but, Kirby covered her eyes and carried her body like a pillow out of the room.

Selena nibbled on her lower lips, now she understands why Kirby doesn't want to let her inside his room. And it is to hide the frame, the picture she saw in the frame made her lips curved up a victorious smile.

She remembers that picture.

The woman in a champagne-colored dress sitting on a princess -like chair was no other than her. It was the time when she celebrated her 18th birthday. When she thought Kirby was not on her birthday, he was actually there.

She suddenly felt the hot liquid forming in her eyes, overwhelmed by her own feelings. She wanted to scream and laugh but she tried to hold herself.

When the door opened, Kirby was avoiding her eyes.

"What is it in the frame?" she asked ignorantly. Kirby looked at her in shock, and she saw the relief in his expression.

"It's nothing..." he replied short and left to get order food.
