Chapter 88 - Weird Neighbor

Annie decided to take April and Sky for a vacation. It has been a while since the four to take a vacation. It was already winter in their state, so they decided to go south but still stay within America.

April took the chance to recommend Los Angeles. She had never been there and she was curious about this city. It had been the home of the most popular celebrities in the country. Even though they wouldn't be able to enjoy the sea, there were a lot of attractions in the city.

Ted tagged along with his family. These two women are his treasures in life. Anything they want, he would gladly offer and do. Since his wife wanted to have a family vacation, he gladly took off from his work for a couple of weeks.  He even asked if they want to go out of the country but his daughter declined. Saying that it's too much of a hassle. The smiths had a house here too but he declined to stay there. He wanted to provide everything to his family himself, so he followed the two's decision on where to stay.

It had been day 5 and April decided to stay in the hotel. She wanted to read some novels online rather than go out. Her feet had been hurting from walking a lot yesterday. She was having fun this week. She had decided to forget everything in the meantime. April would face her problems when she got back to England.

As she was reading some novels online, she decided to stay in the veranda to smell the ocean while doing so. The hotel they stayed at had been close to the seaside. Perfect for this vacation. 

She had been out for 30 minutes or so when someone caught her attention. Someone talk to her out of the blue and it scared her for a second. As she looked up, she saw a familiar face. She felt that she had seen him before but her memories weren't that good to remember where she had seen him. She also noticed the shocked look on his face, but he instantly covered it by smiling.

"Are you asking me?"

"Yes, who else is laughing hard just now?" The man smiled sarcastically.

What a rude man,  she thought. "Sorry if I disturbed you. I'll try to be quiet." Without waiting for his reply, she continued reading.

For a while, she didn't hear anything from the upstairs neighbor. If she was loud, it would be her fault. She didn't know that she was laughing too loud. The scene was just too funny in her novel. Hence she didn't hear anything back, April assumed that the man probably left. After reading another 30 minutes, she paused.

Her sitting position was hurting her back, so she paused to stretch her body. As she stretched, she accidentally looked up. Her face was shocked, as the man was still there gazing at her. He even waved at her when he caught her looking.

Seriously? Is he a pervert or something? She couldn't help but think so. She felt goosebumps on her arms. Without waving back, she took her tablet and went inside her room. She loudly banged her doors. What a weird man, why was he staring at her?! What up with that?! April shook her head. She decided to forget about it and take a shower. Her son sleeps with her while her parents had their room beside her. They didn't bring any servants this time, they wanted to act like how a normal family does on a vacation. Since she decided to stay home today, her parents took Sky out.

After showering, she decided to head downstairs to eat. The hotel restaurant wasn't crowded since most of the guests prefers to eat out. As she sat down on the table, another person sat down on the front of her too.

"You..." She said. She couldn't believe it, it was the neighbor upstairs who was mocking her earlier.

The man didn't reply and only smile as he sat down.

"I got this table first." She reasoned out. The restaurant wasn't full at all, so why would he sit here? Is he a pervert?! He had a handsome face, tanned skin, young face and tall. He didn't look average and acts like he owned the place. Seeing that he was ignoring her by looking down at the menu, April got up and went to move to a different table. That man was getting on her nerves.

As she sat down at a new table, the man showed up again and sat in front of her. What the hell? Can he be that obvious? In public too!

"Seriously! Why are you following me?!" She couldn't help but raise her voice a little higher. The guy finally looked at her and gave her a warm smile. A smile that could change someone's life.
