I Hate You, But I Love You novel Chapter 3

SWEETS and desserts are my weakness. I will never give up chocolates and cakes. I can't do anything with the fact that I really enjoy the food.

Treats are always first on the list of things I want to eat. Especially cakes, cupcakes, and chocolate chip cookies. And I can eat them for free at Lover's Café.

I'm sexy and I'm the only one who knows it!

I also believe that being sexy cannot be measured by the body. For me, a person is sexy if they have a sense of humor. If smart! Coincidentally, I understood that word differently than others did.

Their knowledge is limited. And one of them is Kier Williams!

And surprisingly, I’m not yet used to those antics of Kier. I was even surprised even though I knew the sarcasm and insults he was throwing at me.

If I had high blood pressure, he would definitely be the cause of my death.

Knock on wood, don't!

I am not numb, I am secretly hurt.

"OH, my, Tristan is really handsome." I heard Kim whisper.

I winced because of what my friend said, she was looking out of my bedroom window.

Kim smiled as she watched Tristan, he was playing basketball with his friend Kier.

"Hey, Kim! Your mouth is open. There might be a fly here in my room and it will enter your mouth."

"Oh, my God! His abs. Hot, hot, hot!" said Kim, and bit her lower lip. It seemed like I wasn’t next to her and she could only see my brother, Tristan. "Architect, Tristan Madrid. The boy-next-door type. Clean and boyish-looking. Son and the heir of one of the huge 'Madrid Advertising Company'. You're like a camera, you've captured my heart so much."

Ew, she's corny! I whispered to myself and rolled my eyes.

I almost poured the Milky Iced Tea I was drinking on my best friend to stop her mania. I don’t want to hear how hot or sexy my brother is.

I can no longer remember when Kim’s attraction to Tristan started. And I can’t even remember how many times my friend told me that she would forget Tristan when she found out my older brother had a girlfriend. But when Tristan is single, Kim hopes that she will be my brother's girlfriend.

"Oh my gosh! His muscles, God! I want to squeeze them," Kim added. She looks like a kid blinking her eyes – beautiful eyes! "I want to kiss him. Tristan, my love!"

I couldn't stand it anymore. I picked up the soft pillow and threw it to her. Kim was hit in the head. She turned to me and frowned. Still not satisfied, she glared at me.

"What's your problem, Fatima?" Kim growled at me. "You're ruining my moment!"

"What moment? I'm horrified by what you're saying. Yucks!" I said frowning. I even pretended to be shaking for extra effect. "Stop staring at Tristan, he might melt."

When Tristan's name was mentioned Kim's facial expression changed. Her aura was happy again and she smiled sweetly. My friend ignored me again.

"Tristan. My Tristan… My one, and only love." Kim said dreamily. She's back to the illusion of love.

I let Kim fantasize about my brother. That's all my friend can do. The sneaky looks from afar.

When Kim is in front of my brother, she looks like a wet chick hiding behind me.
