My Alpha Mate's Christmas Gift novel Chapter 74

  Best friend

  “I’ll do it!” Roxanne let out as she entered the house.

  Her sudden noise roused the one who was staying there, a stranger she didn’t recognize.

  “W-Wha…?!” Roxanne stuttered, lost of the right words to use.

  She was confused at the sight of the young lady in front of her, no older than she was. She looked around the house in order to make sure she was in the right place, but after taking in the familiar house smell and ambiance, she was certain she was in Rita’s home. So who was this girl?

  “Uh… Um… You are…?!” Roxanne said as she looked curiously at her.

  The mysterious girl also stared at Roxanne with shock in her eyes with her mouth slightly open in surprise. When Roxanne started to stutter, this surprise turned into amusement as the girl broke into a smile and made a chuckle.

  “Ufufufufu… I’m sorry, I’m sorry…” The girl said with her very soft voice, her tone sounding melodious with every word she said.

  The girl stood up from the chair, which she sat down on comfortably prior to Roxanne's sudden entry and walked toward Roxanne, her smile remaining on her face.

  “I seem to have startled you… My apologies” She said.

  Roxanne couldn’t reply immediately. She was still taking in the appearance of the girl. With a dark shirt and faded blue jeans, she moved forward. Her dark hair flowed behind her, long enough to go beyond her shoulders and nearly touch her behind.

  “N-No, it’s no problem. It’s my fault for simply rushing in like that, haha…” Roxanne said, feeling the level of awkwardness in the room as it kept rising.

  “Oh, that’s fine. For you to do such a thing, it means you must be quite close to Rita. How curious… She never mentioned anything about you the last time we spoke, or even the time before that…” The girl's voice trailed on.

  “Well… I just arrived here last Saturday. It hasn't even been three days” Roxanne quickly stopped her.

  “Ah, I see. My mistake then.” She responded with her charming smile.

  Her deep dark eyes seemed to pierce Roxanne's, making her feel very uncomfortable in her presence, though she didn’t want to show it.

  “So, um, where is Rita…?!” Roxanne asked.

  “Really? Since when?!” The girl exclaimed.

  “Uhh… Since last Saturday…?!” Roxanne replied with an obvious tone, making the girl flush a little with embarrassment.

  She had mentioned this fact previously, so for the girl to have asked a question on that… It was clearly embarrassing.

  “O-Okay then…” The girl answered, slightly flustered by Roxanne's response.

  “Heh, finally got you too!” Roxanne thought within herself, happy to have made the girl hesitate as well.

  “I'll be in my room then! If you’d excuse me…” Roxanne quickly said, walking quickly away from the girl.

  She slightly bumped into her shoulder, but she didn’t mind much, after all she had told her to excuse her. Instead of her to move aside, she kept her stationary position, leaving Roxanne no choice but to brush her shoulder as she passed.

  Without bothering to look back, Roxanne retreated to her room and heaved a sigh, feeling a tinge of guilt, but reassured herself that it was the other girl's fault.
