Chapter Two
After few minutes of drive, we arrived at my house, he pulled over and I thank him before walking out of the car in a haste not even giving the change to respond.
“Hello! am back” I said loudly as I walked into the house.
I saw Risa running to hug me. I carried her in my arms gave her a peck.
“how was your day at school today?” I asked her.
“It was good” I smiled and put her down then went to my room to freshen up.
I and Risa talked for a long time before mum came back from work I know she was tired so I made the dinner.
We had to wait for Dad to come back before we start to eat.It was late in the night already ,we all went to our various room, except for risa insisting she wanna sleep in my room .
that’s my baby sister for you, Always coming up with deferent dramas.
the following morning, I repeated my usual morning routines.
I stood before the mirror to recheck my dress once more.
My hair is neatly parked into two pony tails, I don’t do makeup just a little face pond and lipgloss.
I’m all Clad in my uniforms, short black skirt a white long-sleeve, and a big pair of black boots to my match. My socks? just above my kneels.
I reach from my school bag on the dresser, I went to the dinning and had a quiet breakfast with my family.
As soon I stepped out of our house, I saw a familiar car parked a few distance away. that’s the same spot car of yesterday.
Only one name calls to mind; Rey.
What the hell is he doing here again. I decided to act as though I never noticed it, I continue walking forward but the car went on motion and stopped right in front of me. Blocking my path.
And as expected, rey walked out of the car. He is clad in his uniforms and his golden hair curled. Yeah rey is quite good at changing hair styles giving him that devilishly sexy looks.
He stood before and I felt as though I was standing before an iroko tree or give me a name for the most tallest
Thing in the whole world.
Without even greeting, he asked me to get into the car.
“Have you ever heard of manners?” I muttered and I believe he heard me though but he acted as though he didn’t as he walked to the car to open the back door for me.
“I’m not going go school with you and don’t even tell me you don’t take No for an answer.” I walked past him but I felt a strong yet soft grip at my wrist.
I knew it was rey of course.
He twirled me to face him and my eyes met with his hazel eyes. We locked gaze for a while.
“I insist” he said breathlessly and I felt dragon rising in my stomach.
His eyes and his voice made my vulnerable. I never even knew how I had gotten into his car.
While the car was already on montion I fell back to my senses.
“Hey, stop the car I’m going out. Why the crap are you even doing this? What are you up to huh?” I started rambling behind him.
He glanced at me through the mirror and I saw the corner of his lips curved into a smirk.
“Chill out okay, I’m just helping”
In few heartbeats, we arrived at the school compound. Rey drove into the parking lot halted.
Once we alighted from the car, I felt eyes boring at us from all anger.
Student were hovering around us and most the girls are sending me daggers.
If looks could kill then I would have been rotting 6 fit under just for the few hours I’ve alighted from the car with rey of all people.
this exactly was what I’ve being avoiding, taking in deep breaths, I managed to walked past the pissed girls as I headed for my class. My head was down all the way.
Halfway to my class, I was stopped by some bunch of girls and with look on their face, they were like roaring lions ready to pounce on top me.
But before either of us could say anything, a hand grip my wrist. the girls in front of me cars and their eyes popped out to humanly possible as though, staring beside me as though they’ve seen a ghost.
I turn to my side and Rey was standing beside me holding firm to my wrist.
In next seconds he is pulling me along side with him. I was scared but allowed him. He literally saved me from those lions.
“OMG”
“Are they really dating”
“Isabella is so disgusting”
“I Know she seduce him” my ears caught the petty gossips from the girls.
I cared less.
When we got to the the class, rey sat on his seat while I took mine. the seat beside me was empty. and that was weird. Chloe never skips school and most especially she’s always an early bird. I was expecting her to come maybe later but she didn't and it was getting me worried.
What if something bad had happened to her?!
Or maybe she’s just sick?
Rey noticed
Then he came to me and asked
what happened
'nothing much' ,I replied,
I knew something was wrong with her so I decided to sit beside her , then noticed that Chloe was not there . Oh! maybe that the reason why she has a worried face, thou she looks cute with the face, but I don't want her to frown . So I decided to cheer her up ,
Mind if u wanna play some games , she gave me a no , so I decided to brighten the day then I asked her to tell me more her
why do u wanna know
she asked
Why shouldn't I know about my Friend

Chapter SixWakie wakie! I heard Rey's voice "Sleepy head,wake up" I felt his hand on my forehead, I slowly blink my eyes open to meet the reflection of the sun dimming in my eyes. The rays made my vision blur for a while.

Chapter EightIt was finally My Big day,"Happy Birthday Honey", my mom screamed out and scared me the morning of November 18. But it was surprising and nice of her since she wished me before anyone else. It was my eighteen birthday and it was my day. While looking out the big windows in my room, I thought to myself, I will do what satisfies me today, but wasn't quite sure what? I didn’t receive any calls from my friends, or other relatives. Nobody was home either besides my mom with whom I can’t make plans because she got her own work to do. It depressed me because it seemed like this was going to be one boring eighteen birthday.After half an hour of waiting for someone to call and my sister and dad to come home also thinking about what to do.

Chapter TenOn the morning after Christmas, the mind drifts back to sweet memories of familial joy, of Aunt Mary who I wasn't able to talk to due to my friends raucous laugh and Uncle Larry’s delightful mirth.
