My Roommate is a Boy THE GLITCH
RIVERI stepped out of the hall; it was my final paper for the first semester, and I finally felt a huge burden being lifted off me. I had some kind of satisfaction because I knew I had done better than expected. Elise and Lana were waiting outside for me. “So glad that is finally over,” Lana yawned as she grabbed my hand and pulled me closer. “Me too,” Elise said with glee. “There is a party tomorrow,” she said, already snapping back to being the social butterfly that she was. Lana and I rolled our eyes at her. We couldn't believe that even now, she was more worried about partying than the tension of the results. “We have done our best now to love like young college girls,” she declared. “Before that, the guys’ showcase is tonight, so that means…” “We have to be there,” Elise finished for Lana. They had both teased me about Taylor when I finally told them. “I told you that would happen,” Lana said with a squeal. “Side by side, they look like the perfect couple. A bad boy and
My Roommate is a Boy RUNNING LINES.
RIVERTaylor is leaning casually on the doorframe when I turn around. Tears are welling up in my eyes as I stare at him. He moved to sit beside me on the bed and wrapped his arms around my shoulder. I explained the entire call to him and watched the smile on his face grow. “He wants us to come for Christmas,” I murmured gently. “I think that’s a very lovely plan,” he murmured back. I turned to him gently, and he kissed my lips before pressing his forehead to mine, our breath mixing gently. I felt my cheeks get hot from the contact, and my stomach swirled with joy, but it was the first swirl I had had in two weeks. I knew his forgiving me meant I got my allowance back, but I wanted to keep working. Even if it was something less tedious, I liked feeling more like a big girl now. “You are no longer the good girl who follows just rules.” He cupped my cheeks and lifted my face to meet his eyes. “You are now a woman who is paving her own path.” Those words warmed my insides and resona

RIVERRiding Taylor’s motorbike, which I was sure was a death trap, had now become a new normal for me. He brought it one night, claiming it was faster and he wanted to get me home in time, so I didn't miss my morning classes. Since I had no other option, I hopped on and held on too tightly to him. Since then, he'd bring the motorcycle and shrug. “To get you home faster.” I didn't mind riding on it anymore. Most nights, I was too tired to even try to make sense of the ornery one back home, and I was trying my best not to fall asleep on the bike. Taylor was too intentional about keeping the romance alive. He'd swing by once a day to just say hi and then hand me something to eat. And every time we got the chance to, he would order something sweet and make me eat it on the floor. “We are having floor dates,” he would declare when we ate from takeout boxes as he memorised his lines and I tried to understand all the jargon. Aunt G was occasionally checking in on me. She sent a few buck
My Roommate is a Boy REALITY CHECK
RIVER“Sorry, your card has been declined.” My head goes up too quickly to meet the eyes of the cashier at the bookshop. There is a line behind me, and that statement from him is enough to start gossip. “If she can’t afford it, why is she holding up the line?” “Oh gosh, I hate poor people.” I murmured an apology to the cashier, who threw me a sorry expression. I returned the books to the shelves and made my way out of the store. The eyes of the people on the line follow me as I walk out with my head hung as low as it could get.My father had always known that I didn't have useless expenses and saved money as much as I could, so why would he cut me off so easily?I couldn't believe my father had been so quick to cut me off without thinking twice about it. How was I supposed to survive in school without any money? I had not expected him to act this fast. I tried a few places on campus that might need a part-time student, but with my pharmacy schedule and the hours I'd have to work,

RIVERThe room that carried his voice dropped silent. The kind you can cut through with a butter knife. This was not how I expected anything to go. I had a perfect plan in my head. The only problem now was that everyone refused to go along with the role I had for them. Taylor moved quickly and pulled me in. As soon as my body touched his and his scent filled my nose, tears dropped down my face, and my body began shaking so uncontrollably that I was not sure if I would be able to stop crying. His hands wrapped around me as he swayed me from side to side. Finally, the tears dried, and he pulled away, guiding me to the living room couch. He brought a glass of water, and I tried to smile, but I was sure I was failing too well. “Here,” he murmured as I took the cup from him. Sipping on it and then realising how thirsty I was. “I think the relationship between my father and me is now successfully ruined. I have managed to do the words….” Tears began to flow down my face as I spoke. The
My Roommate is a Boy PAPER TRAIL
RIVERI couldn't sleep that night; my mind kept on wandering to my father. I had promised him that he could trust me, and now I was lying again. I opened the door and slipped out, trying my best not to wake my dad and Aunt G. I tiptoed to the kitchen, determined to work my mind to tiredness so I could fall asleep quicker. I open the fridge and begin to reorganise, wiping down every surface with a wet rag. It had been a while; I had to try out my mind and body so I could fall asleep. A door creaked open; I froze at the sound. I turned to see Taylor holding the face of his phone. I guess I was not as quiet as I thought I was being. He hurried to me as soon as our eyes met. “Sweetheart? What are you doing here?” He asked, setting down his phone and pulling me to him. “Organising the fridge” “Because you have something on your mind?” “No, I don’t…” “I know you, River; you are hiding something from me. Remember, we said no secrets whatsoever. Whatever it is, we can get through it to
