Chapter 3: The delicious treat

As the surrounding gets brighter and hotter, Airin sighs and mumbles about the heat that the Sun gives out as her Swiss watch ticks to noon. She glances at her watch as the needles ticks slowly to every number. ‘What! It’s noon already? I must get home quick before I fry myself here by the heat of the blazing Sun.’ thought Airin as she shuffles into her uniform pocket and takes out a white cellphone cover by a light blue handkerchief.

Flipping the cell phone open with her thumb, she presses the middle button to enter Menu option. Searching for her father’s phone number, she enters her father name on the search box.

Michael.

The search box then shows the only name that she type. She then didn’t hesitate to dial the number by pressing the green button on the left side of the middle button.

Placing the phone beside her left ear, she waits for a respond from her father’s voice. “Hello?” says a calm, hoarse, dry voice. “Uh… Hello, dad? Can you drive me back home now? I already receive my results from the teacher who is in charge.” replies Airin quickly as she looks around her with lazy eyes. “Alright, I’ll be there in a minute.”

“Okay. Bye then!” replies Airin happily as she closes her cellphone and puts away in her uniform pocket. She then slowly walks to the front gates, looking only to where she wants to look. That is the hot blazing seat under the Sun. ‘Just for a while, be patient now…Even though this heat is slowly murdering my white pale skin.’ she thought to herself, walking to the hot cement that shape like a tree log.

She stares at the cement for a while as she glances back up to her left to see if her father is already there waiting for her in the car. “No, he still isn’t there! Running late as usual as always.” she murmur and sighs heavily.

Waiting for her father like hours under the blazing Sun, she was about to give up on waiting for her father. She stands up from her seat, suddenly seeing a white Viva car coming from afar. “Is that what I think it is?” she murmurs under her breath as she tries to identify the car by protecting her eyes with her hand from the bright sunlight.

Before she could even identify it, the car parks beside her and a man in his late 50s wearing a black sunglass glance at her, waving his free hand at her to come here. Airin smile with happiness as she quickly walk to the car and gets on it.

The man then locks the car’s doors as Airin gets in and drives away, shifting the gear as he lets go of the brake pedal slowly and pushes the gas pedal then. Looking outside the car’s window, feeling the cool breeze that blows by, Airin closes her eyes for a moment and smile as she sniffs the cool fresh air that surrounds her.

“So…What did you get for your big exam? Hmmm?” says the man as he concentrates on the road. “Well…I’ll tell you when we get home~!” replies Airin smiling at the man and looks back at the side of the road seeing anything that catches her attention. “Alright then, your brothers too are waiting for your results at home. So I think it is best to show them too.” says the man again, giving the left signal sign as he takes a left turn and slows down the car, parking it at the corner of the small road side.

“Anything you want to buy, Rin?” ask the man unbuckling his seat belt and takes off his black sunglasses. “Hmm…I want ice cream!” replies Airin happily as she unbuckles her seat belt too. “Alright, go and get them.” murmurs the man, unlocking the car’s doors and opens it. Airin quickly opens the door and closes it back as she cross the little road wanting to go to the store on the other side of the road. Looking the ice cream sign, she quickly dash to it and look through the glass to find her favorite ice cream that she desires on this hot sunny day.

Waiting for Airin to choose her ice cream, the man walks up to the payment counter and ask the cashier about the usual thing that he always brought. The woman nod and goes from the counter and walks to the back to find it.

‘Hmmm…Which one…There is so many! But not the favorite Magnum that I wanted is in here…Hmmm….Oh well, Vanilla flavor will do anyways. I could use this thing to cool my throat from this boiling heat!’ thought Airin as she slides open the freezer’s door and takes out the ice cream that she pick awhile ago. Sliding the door back close, she then walks to the man and puts her ice cream on the bright color red counter.

“Anything else?” says the man looking down at Airin. “Hmmm…No.” replies Airin smiling as she takes her ice cream and peels off the cover, she then eats the ice cream with full of joy as the rich flavor of Vanilla overwhelm her taste buds.

‘I’m in heaven~’ Thought Airin joyfully as she licks some more of the delicious flavor.

As the cashier gets back behind the cash register, she puts down a white with green stripe box. “So, how much?” ask the man, taking out his black leather wallet from his back torso pocket. “Including ice cream? All of it…$16.00, please.” says the cashier, pushing the buttons on the cash register to total it all up in a receipt.

The man opens up his wallet and takes out a $20 bill, then gives it to the cashier as she takes it and pushes a button on the cash register to open it. She then gives back the change to the man as she rips off the receipt and gives it to him. “Thank you, please come again.” says the cashier as she closes back the opening cash registers.

Airin quickly runs to the car and gets inside it as the man pushes the green button on the car key to unlock the lock. Walking to the car, the man then opens the door and gets in it as he start the car’s engine and closes the door back.

Airin only smile as she continues to eat her ice cream up before it melts away by the heat of the unforgiving Sun. Licking it up, some of it gets soak onto her uniform without her notice.

They both then drives away from the shops and takes a right turn, passing by some of the small housing areas trying to get to the main road just up ahead. “So…How many A’s did you get? Hmm?” ask the man, while focusing on his driving.

“Well…Hmm…When we get home, I’ll tell you, okay~?” replies Airin childishly, eating off the last piece of the ice cream as she chomps it with her teeth. ‘Guu…That’s cold!’ thought herself as she shivers.
