ZLS Chapter 14 -- Drumming Love

     We reach at the town park, it’s a huge park and a really nice place to chill and get some fresh air.  The sun shine so bright which is a really good weather to spend a day in outside.  Zayn wore his glasses and cap, so we can’t get mobbed by the fans. The park is so crowded, loads of people enjoying the sun shine and playing around. We take a seat in the middle of the park, get some ice cream and watching some children playing around.

“I have a good news for you” Zayn said to me.

“oh yeah! What is that?” I turn to him excitemently. He smiled and run his thumb across my lip.

“look at you! How come 17 years old girl messed up while eating an ice cream?” I just giggling, take Zayn’s hand off my lips and hold it tight.

“just tell me the good news! I love good news!”

“well ... ermm ... I have a few days off before we start our tour “ he smile and wrapped his arm around my shoulder. “and ....”

“and?”

“I’ll take you to Bradford to meet my family”

“w-what?” I looked at him, get shock. “but honestly Zayn, I’m not ready for it”

“why?”

“I just ... I’m just not ready for that. I don’t know why”

“you weird” he said and messing with my hair.

“I am ...” I smiled and turn to face him, being serious at this time. “but Zayn are you serious will take me to meet your family?”

“I’ll never be joking about my family and my girl”

“why if they don’t like me?”

“It won’t happen. My family are so lovely and opened” he interwined his fingers on mine. “They’ll love you. I asked them to watched your video covers on Youtube”

“you what?” my eyes  gets wide and he just giggled.

“they like you, trust me!”

“here we areeee!” Zayn exclaim as we arrived in his family’s house.

“Zayn ... I’m nervous” I bit my lip and fisted my hand.

“what are you nervous for? You don’t need to be babe. They’ll love you” Zayn reassured

I exhale-inhale and trying to relax myself when Zayn knocked the door. He notice my concerns, he chuckled and wrapped his arm around my shoulder.

“relax, okay?” He said and I just nodded.

“oh hai babeee!” a beautiful lady came out and hugged Zayn tightly. “I’ve missed you so much Zayn”.

“I miss you too mum” Zayn said and hug her. So, this beautiful lady is Zayn’s mum.

“sooo, you must be Vanessa” she said to me after he release her hug from Zayn and then hug me. “you look so much more beautiful than what I’ve watched on youtube” she added and release our hug.

“you watched me on youtube?” I asked and frowning, disbelief.

“Zayn asked me to, so I did” I give him a glare and he just smiled. “come in, I’ve cooked something for you guys”

This house isn’t too huge but not too small either. I look around the house, there’re loads of family photo hanging on the wall. I smile when I look at Zayn’s photo when he was kid, what a cute kid he was. Well, he still cute til now anyway.

“what do you guys want to drink?” Zayn’s mum asked and asked me to take a seat in the couch, but I refuse to. I’m still looking at the family picture.

“anything” I answered.

“I’ll get you an orange juice. Enjoy the photos Nessa” She said and winked at me. I chuckled.

“I’m cute, huh?” Zayn said and standing behind me.

“was” I correct.

“liar!” he said and pinched my cheek. “mum, where’s the girls?” Zayn approached his mum.

“on their rooms. Playing games I think” she answered and Zayn left to the other room. “so, how’s your college Nessa?”

“great, I really enjoy it”

“you live with your family here or you stay at the dorms?”

“I stayed at the dorms for about 3 months then I moved to my family’s house”

“but your parents are still in Indonesia?”

“yes they are. I always miss them a loads” I said and she stopped stir the juice.

“oh honey, Zayn’s father and I will be your parents in UK. Don’t be sad, just come here if you miss your parents” she said with look me in the eyes. I saw sincerity in her beautiful eyes.

“thank you auntie”

“auntie?”she’s frowning. “told ya, I’ll be your mom so why you still call me ‘auntie’? Call me mum!” she asked me and smiled.

‘Mum’ I feel a bit strange to mention someone who isn’t my real mum. But I think, she’s the only exception, I already love this woman tho.

“okay, mum” I said and smiled. “where’s Zayn anyway?”

“at the girls’ room I think” she answered and chuckled when she saw my reaction. “his sisters”

“oh yeah. Where are they? I haven’t meet them in person”

As I said that, I saw a little chubby girl came out and smile. She walks to approach us who standing behind the counter.

“Safaa, this is Nessa. You’ve must be already know who she is” Mum Trisha said to that girl. Safaa, Zayn’s little sister. She nodded and smile.

“Zayn’s beautiful girl” She said and smiled. I leaned down to hug her.

“you’re so cute” I said and kiss her on the cheek.

“after she watched your videos on Youtube, she always talking about you. She said that she wants to be like you someday, to be able to playing drum” Mum Trisha told and giggling. I chuckled listen to her.

“did you?” I look down at Safaa, she nodded and giggled.

“you are the coolest girl I’ve ever know”

“becauseeee?” I asked her and seat on the couch.

“you’re beautiful, you’re smart, you have a good sense of fashion and you can playing drum” she answered. I look at her with amusement. What cute she is.

“how did you found out about that? I mean, it’s our first meeting”

“Zayn”

“oooh yeah I’ve must be know about that”

“Nessa?” she looked up at me.

“yes?”

“promise me, you’ll be my sister-in-law” she asked me with her innocent smile. I choked immediately.

How come a little girl who just been talking to me less then an hours asked me to marry his brother? Even Zayn and I haven’t talk about the marriage’s thing.

“what?”

“I really want you to be my sister”

“I’ve been your sister already babe” I smiled and wrapped my arms around her shoulder.

“I mean, I want you to marry with Zayn” I chuckled cause seeing her face when she asked me to marry with Zayn.

“marriage isn’t that simple. We need to know each other before marriage. Zayn and I haven’t known each other, we’ve been together for just a couple of months, so we need more time for it” I explain to her and she nodded. I can’t believe that the first time I talked about marriage thing with this 10 years old kid.

I spent a whole day with Zayn and his family. I had met with his dad, Doniya and Waliyha. I’ve also met Danny and Anthony, Zayn’s bestfriends. They are all so kind and lovely. Danny and Anthony are very funny lads. Waliyha is a bit similar with Zayn, she’s quite but very sweet. Doniya is very gorgeous and mature, she’s a really great sister. The rest of Zayn’s family and relatives are very kind, lovely and pretty. I swear, his family has pretty face.

“So, Nessa will you have sleepover tonight?” Zayn’s Dad asked me after we finished our dinner. All eyes in this room staring at me, waiting for a response.

“huh?” I still don’t have an answer.

“Stay here for a night. Zayn will be on tour in the next few days. Let’s enjoy the quality time with him before he’s on tour for only God knows how long” Mum Trisha explained to me and the rest of the people nodded. I turn to Zayn, he nodded and smile.

“well, okay. But I have to get back to Oxford tomorrow. I have something to do” I said and smile.

“oh honey it’s okay. Zayn will drive you to Oxford” Mum Trisha said to me with a beautiful smile.

“as I know, he can’t drive” I correct her and chuckled.

“oh girl! I have a driver. You don’t need to worry” Zayn speaks and wink.

“right! We have a Pajamas party tonight then!” Doniya claps and put a wide smile on her beautiful face.

“I’m going to sleep beside Nessa!” Safaa added.

“hey baby! I’m the only one who allowed to sleep beside her”. Zayn speaks to Safaa and she just make a sad face, which is really cute.

“you can sleep beside her whenever you want, but me?” I coughed of what I just heard. Safaa just said that? Seriously? Gosh, I don’t know what Zayn has taught her.

“Safaa” mum Trisha aware her.

“I want let the rest of the family knows that I’m Vanessa’s biggest fan!” she added and I just smile.

“no. I’m Vanessa’s biggest fan. Real and massive fan!” Zayn argue her.

“Nah!! It’s me!”

“hey kids! Just stop arguing each other and go eat your dinner”. Their dad stops their silliness.

Doniya, Waliyha, Safaa and I spent a night at Doniya’s room. It’s like a girl night party. We take a loads of photos from webcam, talked about many things, eat some chips and ice cream. All of sudden we forgot that we can get fat if we eat loads of those kind of food at night.

“can I join with you gurls?” someone speaks behind the door. Definitely Zayn.

“noooooo” Safaa shouted to him, but Zayn opened the door already. “it’s a girl party. A boy doesn’t allowed to join with us” she added.

“my cute beautiful gorgeous Safaa, I hope that I’m the only exception for this” Zayn take a sit beside her and wrapped his arm around her shoulder.

“hmmm .... just for a half an hour” Safaa said to Zayn and he hug his cute little sister tightly.

“thank you sweetheart” Zayn said and kissed her on cheek. “well, what we gonna do?”

“no idea” Doniya speaks, she’s on twitter and replying some mentions from Zayn’s fans.

“are you on twitter?” Waliyha asked Doniya from across the bed. Doniya nodded as a reply.

“how about a twitcam?” Safaa suggest. “I ever did a twitcam with bajee Waliyha and I thought it was fun. Hope we can doing that anymore”

We’re all exchanged look, not sure of Safaa’s idea. They’re focused their eyes on me. I already know what they all are thinking about.

“no it’s fine. I’m okay with that” I assure

“you sure?” Zayn asked me.

“100% sure! It’ll be fun. Let’s do it then” I reassured them.

“yeaaaaah! Let’s do it” Safaa cheeers and hug me.

“use your account then” Zayn said to Doniya who still on her twitter.

“alright”

Zayn, Waliyha, Nessa, Safaa and I will be on twitcam. Whos goin to watch? x

I saw Doniya tweet and put the twitcam link.
