I don't know why he was so calm, and not saying much, but the way he was looking at me, really got me thinking that we might just have the time tonight. Maybe I really could tell him all that is needed to be told.I made him Coffee and sat close to the fire house with him. I had him covered, while he sips on the coffee."You know, I was scared today". He says and I nodded, that I could relate with what he just said."But why did you take it, when you know you are allergic to it? I didn't want to blame him, but I just needed to ask.I mean, you are very choosey, you should be careful with the things you take, and you know your health condition too". I added, but he raised his hand to stop him."If I am able to tell her about my allergies, I cannot tell her I have health issues too. it will scare her, and I don't want that". I was surprised that he didn't think he could share with her, whatever is bothering him."How can you not tell her that you are sick, even though it is well manage
I had a blast with Myles, and I was very happy that at last he felt better to even drive me home with all the stuff he got me from Wallingford.In his usual Manner, when he got to my door step, he still alighted, to walk me into my house."Is mum around? He asked, looking as though he would be spanked, for keeping me with him for so long."I am not sure". I answered, trying to indirectly urge him to come inside, since I was not really ready to allow him go. I enjoyed, every minute I spend with him and I want more of it."That is good then, so I don't get to explain". He says as he helped me get the key from the door mat and opened the door to get my things inside the house.After he was inside the house, and had carefully dropped my things in my room, he came back to sit down with me, holding my hands in his."Thanks once again for yesterday". He says and I nodded my head.We still have few more days before we will leave for school, but I will go before the time, to ensure that your r
I allowed the phone ring for a while, contemplating if I should take the call or just pretend to be tired, but after the first ring, I was reminded that something may have happened, which needs my attention, and so I quickly picked my phone."Hey! I answered, forgetting that the number is a strange one."Hey beautiful, how are you doing? I heard his voice and I didn't need anyone telling me whom the voice belongs to."I am fine and you? I asked, sitting up on the bed, after hearing Darius's voice. I am okay now that I can hear from you, for my night was really bad". He says and I gasped in shock. No matter who is involved, I hate hearing that someone is having a bad day or had a bad day."Oh my gosh, what happened? "Wow! Look how shocked you sound, you really must have goodness in you, but the truth is that, I was thinking about you, all through yesterday and I didn't know what to do, I thought of calling you at that time of the night, but then I was reminded that the time is ungodl
Darius didn't look like a guy who would give up easily, for in the evening of that same day, he came by the house with Ariana."Now you know her house, can I go now? She asked and he nodded, asking her to go, I just stood outside the house, wondering what the both of them were up to.Ariana left with her car, making me wonder, just how Darius plans to go back."What are you doing here Darius? I asked."I was worried. When you ended the chat, you didn't come back online and this is already night, it is not possible that you are still taking a nap? He asked."Actually I just woke up". I said to him and he smiles."That means, you need to move about a bit, you cannot be home all day? I was no longer seeing him as a pest, I was admiring the fact that he was giving me attention and if I really want to take my mother's advise, I might need to work with him, maybe forgetting Myles, won't be such a bad idea."So what are you suggesting? I asked, wanting to hear from the expert, to know what
Just a few more days to leave the city for school and I could already tell that my mother is missing me already. "I will really miss you". She says and I smiles, making a face that says, I will miss her too, but I am happy to be away from the house for once in my life."I know, but it is not like I am going too far, Myles didn't make that happen, so we are still in the same area". I explained to her, and she winked at that, for she knows she will always come looking for me in school whenever she misses me too much."Yes, Myles did well in that aspect. By the way, this guy that have been coming around for some time now, who is he and what is the relationship between you two? She asked me. I had expected her question about Darius sooner, but she seem to be waiting for me to tell her on my own."He is just a friend. He is the cousin, to Myles' girlfriend, so somehow, he is family". I explained, so that she doesn't start thinking. "But he is coming today right? She asked and I nodded,
I didn't want him saying anything to him, that would further annoy him, but I didn't say much to him, I told him I needed to leave."Are you going to him? He asked and I nodded as to say yes.But you said it yourself that the rehearsal is over, and he just called you, going there now won't change anything, it won't make it start again". He was right, but I just needed to leave, I was no longer feeling comfortable staying there. I started feeling like I should have never denied my feelings for him, or abandoned him.Mother was right, Darius was making me forget Myles, but I cannot say, if it is in a good way, or a bad one."Darius, it is already late, and you know I didn't tell my mother I was going out, she wouldn't want me to stay out late, so I need to leave". I was looking him in the eye, while talking, and I could see that he felt hurt that I was almost pushing him aside. "I will take you home, or do you want to go to his house? He asked me. I felt bad, that I decided to just st
How I went through the night was what I could not explain. When I got home, I explained all that happened to my mother, and she could only laugh."I am sure Myles will understand that this is a different phase in your life, and he will understand that you don't have to be with him all the time, or do everything together. He is your best friend, you guys could always still be there for eachother, but it doesn't seem fair, if you inconvenient yourself, just to make him happy. Friendship is give and take, it doesn't hurt, and it is not one sided". She explains, looking into my eyes, knowingly, because I will surely have something to say to backup everything."But I promised him mum. I promised to be there for him. That was the the same thing he said, that if I didn't want to, and that I had other engagement, I should have just told him, which I didn't, for him to make other plans for himself, and since I didn't, it hurt him even more". I was almost in tears."I know, you forgot, you are
He saw that I was not answering him and he clearly didn't know what to do, so he sat on the stairs, and kept staring at me, when I still didn't say or do anything to show him that I had seen him, he got up and came back to me. This time he was standing Infront of me, with his hands in his pocket, but his eyes was on mine, even though I wasn't directly looking at him, I could tell everything he was doing with his eyes."You are still beautiful even while angry". He says, trying to be humorous, but I still was not moved.Are you going to keep quiet forever? He asked, and I only looked at him for a second, before looking away, with my hands on my waist. He took my hands into his gently, and went on his knees as though he wants to propose to me.He might as well propose to someone he doesn't know. We were only friends and he kissed me. He should have started by asking for courtship first, before going too far to kissing.Common Kiki, I am sorry". Hearing him call me that didn't help matte
