Chapter 10 Sparks Fly.

"Yes. I guess you could say that... By the way, are you ready to go home, Auntie?" Cherish said, as she abruptly changes the subject.

"Yes, I can't wait to go home, dear. We have to go now, Hiro. Have a great evening and see you again tomorrow, okay?" Aunt Feliza said goodbye to Hiro.

"Be careful on you way home. Have a great night and see you tomorrow Nurse Feliza... And Cherish." Hiro said, while staring at Cherish without almost blinking.

While Aunt Feliza and Cherish are walking away, her Aunt asked her a question rightaway.

"What was that all about? Why you and Hiro looked so awkward awhile ago?" Aunt Feliza bombarded Cherish with questions.

"It's nothing, Auntie. We were just talking about Grandma Cherish." replied Cherish.

Feliza didn't dare ask her niece some questions again because she knows that Cherish won't give her straight answers. But one thing is for sure. There's something going on between Hiro and Cherish.

At the same time, Hiro's eyes follows Cherish, until she disappears from his sight. He can't explain why, but he is clearly.

Cherish feisty and frank attitude made her even more attractive. When it comes to physical aspect, Cherish is pretty, and she has unique charms that made him really attracted to her.

Cherish's simplicity is the grace that makes her beautiful.

============================

It's Cherish's day off at work, and she is having a good time with her twin cousins as they watch movies at home and eating their favorite snacks. After their movie marathon, they've decided to clean up their mess. They are in the middle of cleaning up when they g

heard the doorbell rang.

"I'll get it, guys. Just continue cleaning up." Cherish ordered the twins.

She opens the door to see who rang the bell. chime...

Cherish saw a man who's smiling at her. He looks like a boy-next-door type, wearing peppy clothes, and he looks cute and presentable.

"Hello, I'm Shun Hasegawa, and I am the twins' new Math tutor." the man politely introduces himself.

Cherish remembered that the twins told her that they will have a new private Math tutor. And this is their new tutor.

"Oh, right! By the way, I'm Cherish, and I'm the twins' cousin. Please come in!"

Shun Hasegawa enters their house.

"Justine and Jessica, your new Math tutor is here!" Cherish calls out for the twins.

Cherish guided Shun towards the living room, and the twins were already waiting for their tutor.

"Good afternoon, Sir. My name Justin."

"And my name is Jessica. We're so glad to meet you."

The twins politely introduces themselves.

"Nice to meet you as well, Justin and Jessica. I am Shun Hasegawa, and I'm going to be your Math tutor from today. Let's do our best." the tutor smilingly introduces himself as well.

"Mr. Hasegawa, you can go ahead to the study room with the twins. I'll just prepare some snacks and drinks." Cherish instructed the new tutor in a polite manner.

The nee tutor and the twins are now climbing the stairs to go to the study room. Afterwards, Cherish decided to go to the kitchen to prepare some sandwiches and drinks for them...

==========================

Back at the Nursing Home.

Hiro is watching his grandmother playing BINGO with the other elderly residents. His grandma is clearly having a good time, and he is glad that she is enjoying her time.

However, he feels a bit antsy because Cherish is not at the Nursing Home. Some of the staff told him that today is her day off, so he won't be seeing her around today...

His realized that his day is not complete anymore if he doesn't see Cherish. She is the one who can make him laugh, smile and feel amused. He misses her sarcastic remarks towards him. She miss seeing her lovely face...

"Oh, well. I'll just endure it until tonight, and I'm going to see her again tomorrow." Hiro whispers to himself.

========================

After two hours on intense studying in Math, their tutoring session is finally finished. As of the moment, Shun, and the twins are having an enjoyable chat, as they get to know each other. Cherish also decided to join their conversation...

"Thank you very much for sharing your knowledge to my cousins, Mr. Hasegawa." Cherish stated.

"Please, let's drop the formalities, shall we? Just call me Shun." the man smilingly suggested.

"Is it really okay for me to call you by your first name? I mean, you are a teacher..." Cherish was a bit hesitant."

"Well, I am not a school teacher, but I am a teacher for private tutoring, so it's really okay to call me on my first name." Shun confidently reassures Cherish.

"Alright then. I'll call you Shun." Cherish nodded in agreement.

"Can I also ask you something?" Shun asked again.

Cherish puzzily frowned.

"Hmm? And what is that?"

Shun sheepishly smiled first before he spoke again.

"Uhm... Can I call you by your first name? Is it okay to call you Cherish?"

"Oh my goodness! I thought it was something serious! Of course you can. We are now friends!" Cherish smiled at him.

Shun chuckled in return.

"So, I'll call you Cherish and you'll call me Shun from now on. Is that a deal?" Shun announced, as he raised his hand for a handshake.

Cherish accepted Shun's handshake with a smile.

"It's a deal... Shun." Cherish finally said.

"Great!" Shun's happily said.

After a few seconds, Cherish politely withdrew her hand from Shun's grasp.

"Well, I have to go. See you again next week, Cherish." Shun decided to say goodbye.

"Yes, see you next week." Cherish said in return.

"See you tomorrow, Cherish." said Shun.

Cherish and the twins walked with Shun towards the door. After Shun was finally gone, the twins started teasing their cousin.

"Are you thinking what I'm thinking, Jessie?" Justin smilingly asked.

"I think so we're thinking the same thing, Justin." Jessie amusingly responded.

"Stop playing cupid, guys. There's nothing!" Cherish replied, as she shook her head helplessly.

The twins didn't believe her, as she continues to tease Cherish...
