Part 42
ELLEANNA
"Where are we going?!" I yelled at Jerick and hugged his waists because of the speed of his running.
"Somewhere!" He replied and laughed. He accelerated the motorcycle even more. I don’t know but I closed my eyes in fear. For a moment I felt Jerick turn so I hug him tight and saw that we had entered an alley and when we came out the city opened up to me where vehicles were passing on the highway.
I also heard the honking of cars. I don’t know where Jerick and I are going. He just kept on running our motorcycle so I was all over his stomach and scared of him.
Moments later his running slowed, "We're here, finally!" He said and stopped his motorcycle.
I was surprised so I looked at a place where I saw in the big logo of this building was Ice cream Palace, so my eyes widened and looked at him. "What are we going to do here?" I ask him. I don't know where did he drove me, we skip class also and made me a little bit worried for some reason.
He took off his helmet then I saw the smiles on his lips, "We need to cool down," Jerick said and walked it in first.
I followed him and wondered here, as we entered I was amazed to see the design inside, there were large freezers on the side but I paid more attention to the Ice creams displayed in the counter area. So I hurried over to it and stared at them.
"I bet this is delicious!" I said and couldn't stop drooling at the Ice creams in front of me.
"What do you want to eat there?" I heard Jerick ask. I looked at him and saw that he was smiling as he looked at me.
"Hmmm. Choco mouse and cookies and cream will do, but I need to save my money. So you just eat," I said to him and I heard him laugh.
I was about to walk out when he held my hand and I stopped walking. I raised my two eyebrows, "What's wrong?" I ask him curiously.
"The reason why we are here is to eat," he answered.
"So? I don't have money. So you just eat, I'll be there for you," I said and I sniffed there at the tables to indicate that I would wait for him there.
He laughed softly and nodded, "Okay, wait for me there," he said.
I walked over there and sat down. And again I rolled my eyes at the same time to admire the designs that are here-- the wall was painted in beige and they have cute stickers. It was a comfortable ambiance, so I love this place. Moments later I caught a glimpse of Jerick talking to the crew of this store.
Moments later they go to the Ice cream section and choose. I crouched down at the table and thought I would go back to this place so I could also buy the Ice cream I wanted to eat.
"I'll be back here and eat some Ice cream here," I said to myself. But in the depths of my mind, I heard the sound of something on the table so I looked up.
"Oh! The serving here is so fast," I said to Jerick. He smiled at me and handed me a cup. I frowned when I saw it.
"Here," Jerick said.
"Huh?" I wonder question him.
"It's yours. My treat," he said and he held it tightly.
I took it and he sat on the other side where we were facing each other. "T-thanks ... but it's embarrassing," I told him honestly.
He smiled when I said, "You don't need to be shy since you came out with me. So this will be my treat from our cutting class," he reasoned.
"It's like you're still making us look bad students because we came here just to eat Ice cream," I said laughing.
He also laughed at what I said and shrugged. "Shall we?" He asked and he showed her the cup he was holding.
I gasped as I got what he was hinting at, "Ohh... Okay, okay," I said and I took the cup he gave me. I looked up and my eyes widened when I saw its contents.
"Chocolate Moose and Cookies and Cream ... also, the topping ... Oooh! I love this," I said with an uncontrollable thrill. I looked at the cup and noticed it was large.
My eyes widened and I looked at him, "Can we finish this?" I asked Jerick curiously and he smiled at me then nodded.
I gulped, even though I wanted to gobble up the food I couldn’t because I was in front of Jerick. It was also embarrassing to him that I would eat classlessly. We should look like a fine lady to him.
We had already started eating and I couldn’t stop myself from consuming them. "Don't eat too fast ... that won't go away," he said laughing. So I stopped eating Ice cream and looked at him.
"Elleanna, you should take it slower. Are you out of your mind ?!" I blame myself. I couldn’t help but bow in front of Jerick and laugh.
"D-don't be embarrassed," he panic. So I looked at him.
"The Ice cream will melt," I said to him-- which is true, so when Mama buys me I can quickly consume it as I can't eat liquid Ice cream.
Jerick smiled and took the tissue, "There's Ice cream on your lips," he said and someone noticed it in me.
"Where?" I wondered to ask him I used my thumb to wipe it.
"Lower ... 'he said so I went down.
"Where?" I ask him but he laughed and he stood up in his seat.
"Here," Jerick said and he wiped it off. I stared at him as he did so.
Again, my heart beats so fast as I look at him.
