Chapter 4

Grace's POV

I watched Stella's face turn green with anger, I Laughed like a maniac, she got served, she left with tears in her eyes, such a cry baby.

" Barbie what is your name?"  I abruptly stopped laughing, did she just initiate a conversation with me?

" Grace my name is Grace and you are Mercy do you see what I see" I gave her my best smile.

She hit her head with her palm " what have I gotten myself into" I heard her muttering I beamed " you have gotten yourself in a friendship with the best"

She rolled her eyes I chuckled, i heard her voice "Barbie  I will call you Barbie,  it suits you well" 

"For you anything my lady" i hate being called Barbie I sure do look like her but I am not her I am me , some how hearing her lazy voice call me Barbie makes me happy. I smirked, finally she accepted me as her friend, even though I can tell she is still reluctant, " by the way why did you call her corpse?" 

" because she looks like one, don't tell me you have not noticed how much powder she use? Besides the looks her brains are empty, more reason you should not associate yourself with her okay? Let her bark as much as she want, do not retaliate, do not give her the satisfaction to see you stoop so low like her and her minions just avoid them as possible as you can, do you understand? Unless of course, they get physical "

I bobbed my head indicating that I understand, her mindset is so different from our mates, she does not care about what people say and think of her, but getting physical with her I think it will be calling upon Satan's best representative, I can tell by looking in her eyes, and the tone of her voice changed from the bored tone she usually uses around me to a cold one which caused shivers to run down my spine, I do not wish to be on her bad side.

" so you said if I want to be your friend I should not associate with corpse, does that mean we are friends now?" I asked her excitedly.

"  I do not know why you want to befriend me so much before you sign in the friendship contract with me, there are few things you need to know,  I am not rich, I'm so poor so you will have to buy me lunch every day and when we go for shopping you are paying, a few clothes items are nothing to you"

I  could tell that she is still looking for a way to get rid of me, not a chance not after getting so close to her, " deal" I beamed with excitement " let's go shopping after class what do you say, we shop till drop dead"

My my my I got her back, her  eyes almost popped out of their sockets and mouth forming an O shape, I smiled at her, " no shopping no buying me food, what can I do to get rid of you?" the last part came out as a whisper, she is not as cold as I thought she just does not know how to behave around people, or what friends do, she thinks it is immature and boring to do all those things like shopping, going to the saloon e.t.c so after confirming that she accepted me as her friend I called my mum I was over the moon, I told her that the fish is hooked she too was over the moon finally.

Mercy's POV

Being around grace was hard but not as hard as it was the first time we met the girl is too chatty, she never shuts up, I went home later than usual she dragged me to our campus nearby ice cream shop.

I opened the door of our apartment Tom was not there, it was pitch black, I sighed turning on the lights " working overtime I guess, dinner alone again "  I marched to our chamber I was so exhausted, I could not keep up with Grace's energy, the girl is too hyper.

I went to take a shower after showering I went back to our room, I missed Tom for 2 weeks he comes late from work when I have already fallen asleep, leaves early when I'm still in dreamland, it feels like he is avoiding me.

I rummaged through Tom's shelves, I found a White round-neck t-shirt I snatched it, and put it over my head pulling it down to my bare body without my undergarments.

I went to the kitchen to make myself something to eat, instant noodles that is the only thing I had on my mind, I microwaved them, then headed to the dining table with my fork and bowl of hot noodles I sat my butt comfortably at one of the seats ready to dig in my food.

I heard the sound of keys rattling at the door, I checked the time it is 7 p.m, I guess Tom decided to home early today.

He walked in more like dragging his body inside, at one glance one can tell that he is exhausted. He glared at me, his eyes were blazing with fury, his eyes moved from my bowl to my mouth, I gulped down the noodles I had in my mouth embarrassed, I licked my lips and my head hung low in shame and regret. 

He strolled to where we keep our food, he opened the first shelve which's where we keep our junk food.

" you have been eating noodles for the past few weeks?" His voice was dangerously low, I know that tone he is trying to lash out at me.

" I did not think you still care about me, besides what is the point of cooking when you only come home to sleep and leave early in the morning"

I heard him sighing " I am sorry okay, l will update you next time, the   office was in chaos" he walked to me and kissed my forehead taking my bowl of noodles at the same time " now let me take that, it does not belong to your tummy but the bin" 

He did not give me a chance to protest, " what do we eat now cause you have thrown my meal in the bin" I pouted. 

 He snickered " you will eat me, I see you are even prepared, wearing my fav T-shirt with no panties "

Shoot I have forgotten that I should not have stood up, I ran to our chamber with a redden face, I grabbed my undies, and put them on with sweatpants.

...........

 After eating our dinner which Tom cooked we cuddle, watched TV, kissed, talked, and laugh, it was Friday night after  even braided my hair, he was so serious when he was doing it, such an adorable soul.

"Baby remember Barbie?"

" yeah, why do you call her Barbie" 

"She looks like her, she is cute just like that, I wish I had her looks" I buried my face in his check, he cupped my face,  " I love you this way"
