Guessing Game

A boy was answering his homework when someone plays a game of 'guess who' with him.

I wrote on the sheet of paper. They were answers for the questions on page 143, but you’d never guess that since my handwriting look more like chicken scrawls. I wasn’t even sure if I got them spot on, but since I went out of my ways just to write them, I’d say I did them quite well. They were pretty easy, after all.

Question three, especially, was a piece of cake; my hand started even before I finished reading:

The effects of a high rate to the company--and then I paused.

Hands slowly slid by the sides of my head and covered my eyes. They were soft hand, and I knew whose they were. My lips revealed the amusement. I was about to call out her name when--

“Guess who?!” I heard a friend of hers call out somewhere from my right and I couldn’t help but smile all the more.We’re playing this game? Are they serious? I was pretty curious on how people around us reacted. Well, who cares.

I felt her giggling behind me, and something warm coursed through me. I sighed. Alright, I’ll let her have her fun. I placed my hands over hers and returned a small laugh. Hmmm… I hummed out loud, tagging along. I wasn't giving up before her; she'd reveal herself before I mention her name. She felt the challenge. Ha! As if I didn’t know her well enough.

“Guess who? Guess who!” Her annoying friend continued. Didn’t she notice the change in atmosphere here?! My miss soft-hands probably got annoyed as well and couldn’t help but shush her friend. I laughed at this.

Miss Soft-hands’ next attempt was comical. She tried to deepen her voice to ask Guess Who herself and it sounded like an old lady with a cough or something. I laughed of course, but it was funny, and that was one of the things I love about her.

Hmmm…. I teased. I wasn’t giving up that easily.

I tried to loosen her hands. Perhaps playfully peak and give her a quick peck on the cheek, but she didn’t allow that and tighten her hold all the more. I sighed, but after taking a deep breath of her wonderful scent, I hoped we would stay like that. Oh, how I’d wish time would pause right that moment.

“What’s wrong?” She asked, alarmed. I did sigh twice already, might it be she got worried? She was about to let go so I held her hands tight.

I gave a soft smile. Hmmm… I continued playing, and she gave a blissful laugh.
