āHey,it seems some new people have moved in next doorā Jamal said as he looked through the window.
I joined him to look,i saw two people, I think they are husband and wife.
They were with their luggages,while the maids were helping them with somethings.
āI pray they have daughtersā Jamal said and i smacked his head.
āOuchā
āJammy,you are such man-whoreā i said and he chuckled.
āAm going to my room,i have homework and am sure you do too so stop staring and go do your homeworkā i said and turned to leave when I heard him mutter āNerdā under his breath.
āI heard thatā i said and went up to my room.
I got to my reading table,i looked out my room window.
I could see the next room,it looks like a guyās room,there was a guitar.
I love it when someone plays the guitar.
I quickly ignored it and focused on my homework.
āHeyā i heard someone say, I looked up and it was a guy with brown hair and hazel eyes.
The guy had a look of shock,i was confused on why he was looking so shocked.
āYour eyes are amazingly beautifulā he said, then i quickly remembered that i wasnāt putting on my contact lenses.
āOh,f*ckā I said and quickly closed my window.
Oh,am so stupid,i have never let anyone apart from my family to see my eyes.

My parents finally arrived and as usual,they were on the phone talking to some business partners.
āHey,my little princeā My mom said and kissed my cheeks.
My dad just walked away Leaving i and my mom in the living room.
āI see my dad is so happy to see meā i said sarcastically.
āDonāt mind him,he is just tired from the ride here,has my little prince eaten?ā
āYes,i have and stop calling me little princeā
āBut you are, arenāt you just 17?ā
āMom,am 19 and you would have known that if you were actually around during my birthdaysā i said and walked away before she could say anything.
I entered my room and slammed the door,they only care about themselves.
My own mother doesnāt know my age,so pathetic.
I wanted to pick up my guitar when i saw the girl next door.
I think she was doing her homework because she seemed so focused.
āHeyā i said,she looked up at me and i swear i literally froze when i saw her face,she was so beautiful and her eyes are grey in colour.
With her black hair,she looked like an angel.
āYour eyes are amazingly beautifulā i managed to say.
Before i knew it,she looked surprised and she quickly closed the window.
Why did she run away?
I only wanted to talk.

āSo you are saying a guy saw your real eye color and your hair?ā Jamal asked.
I was in his room, I watched him put on his jacket.
āYeah,i didnāt notice that i wasnāt with my face cap and my contact lensesā
āGigi,but it isnāt bad,your eye and hair are natural and it supposed to be seenā
āNo, Jamal,you know it is what caused me so much pain,it was because i was too open to everyone,that horrible night that still haunts meā
Jamal came closer to me and hugged me.
āSis,you know i donāt like seeing you like this,i wish i could find that bastard that hurt you,but i swear to you that if i find him,i will kill himā
āYou are such a caring twin brotherā i said and he chuckled.
āSo what are you gonna do to the guy next door, itās not like you can erase his memoryā
āI will just try to avoid him, itās already bad that his room is so close to mineā
āSis,i gotta to goā
āWhere are you going?ā
āOn a date with Madisonā
āMadison? Seriously?ā
āYeah, whatās wrong?ā
āYou like her?ā
āNo,i canāt date someone who throws herself at any guy just to get what she wantsā He said and i giggled.
āJust be carefulā
āI will, love youā he said,kissed my forehead and he walked away.

I was walking through the hallway trying to find Ashley.
I was carrying some books when someone bumped Into me making the books fall.
āOh,am sorryā
āSeriously,are you that blind?ā I asked harshly,we both bent down to pick it making us bump our heads.
āOuchā we said at the same time,we finally looked up at each other.
Oh, no, itās the guy next door, heās attending this college?
š Alexanderās P.o.vš
I looked up at the person i bumped and it was my neighbor but she had a different color of eyes.
āWhy are you starring at me like that?ā She asked as she packed her books.
I tried to help her but she smacked my hand off.
āAm just trying to help youā
āI donāt need your help, itās bad enough that you are blindā She said and stood up.
āAm not blind,am just looking for the music departmentā
āWell, thatās your problemā She tried to leave but i held her wrist.
āDonāt touch meā She said and yanked her hand away, sheās so aggressive.
āCan you give me directions to the music department?ā
āAsk someone else,leave me the hell aloneāShe walked away.
I watched her stop, then turn around,she walked back to me.
āListen carefully,Hazel eyes,i know you are my next door neighbor and you saw something,i donāt you telling anyoneā
āAnd if i do,what will you do?ā
āI will shave your hair off and make you eat them allāShe said with all seriousness.
āAm Alexander by name but you Call me Xanderā i said and she rolled her eyes.
āThe music department is by the left next to the engineering departmentā She said and turned to leave.
āI didnāt get your nameā
āItās not importantā
What a weird person.
š Giannaās P.o.vš
āAm telling you,Gigi, itās just this guyās first day here and he is already making news, heās already part of the basketball team,they say he is really goodā
Ashley was ranting about that guy called Xander, sheās not the only one, girls are practically drool over him, itās so annoying.
First it was my brother,now this guy,am sure Madison will be ontop of the world.
āXanderās singing in the hallwayā someone said and everyone except me rushed out to see him.
āCome on,Gigi,you will miss itā Ashley said.
āNo, i think am fine hereā
Ashley rolled her eyes amd dragged me to the hallway.
š¶And if you feel you are sinking,i will jump right over into cold,cold watee for you.
š¶ And although time may take us into different places,i will still be patient with you.
š¶I hope you know i wonāt let go, Iāll be your lifeline tonight.
š¶I wonāt let go.
Everyone surrounded him as he played the guitar and sang,Maddison was in front of him smiling like an idiot.
They all cheered for him as he finished.
āThanks, everyoneā he said,our eyes met but i quickly looked away.

āHeās a really good basketball playerā Jamal said as we got home.
āI really need my ear to rest from Xander this,Xander that, itās so annoyingā
āYou gotta admit, the guy can singā
āYeah whateverā
āGigi,you told me you liked it when guys played the guitarā
āI was really little back them,Xander is annoyingā
I went up to my room,i freshen up so i decided to read a novel.
I opened my room window and i could see Xander sitting by his window.
āFinally,i was waiting for you to open your windowā He said and smiled.
āSo you mean to tell me that you donāt have anything useful to do?ā
āWell,i was about to play my electric guitar but i thought of talking to you, Giannaā
Who told him my name?
āSurprised how i know your name, your friend, Ashley is a really nice person,she even showed me aroundā
Oh, Ashley and her big mouth.
āLook,dummy, donāt think am like those dumb girls in school,if you touch me,i will kick you in the ballsā i said and he chuckled.
āI know you are not like other girls, thatās what makes you interesting,i want to discover you, Gianna Floresā
āJust because we are neighbors, doesnāt mean you and i are friendsā
āWe are not?ā
āNo,we are not,now if you excuse me, I would like to read a novelā
I brought out the novel and started reading.
There was slience and i thought he had finally gone inside.
āSo why do you wear contact lenses when your natural grey eyes is amazing?ā He asked and i sighed in frustration.
This guy is a pain in the neck.
āGoodbyeā i said and closed the window.
Finally some piece of mind.
I was just about enjoying the peace and quiet when i started hearing electric guitar noise,that idiot was playing too loud.
I tried to ignore but it was too loud,i couldnāt even hear myself think.
I went to my window and opened it angrily.
āOh,hey,you came backā he said and smirked.
āWhatās your problem?ā
āI donāt know,you tell meā
This guy is getting on my nerves.
āAs much i really want to put a knife down your throat,i also donāt want to go to jail,so am asking nicely, please play your guitar quietlyā
āOkay,am sorry,i will play quietlyā
āThank youā i said and closed my window back.
I havenāt even sat down when he started playing again.
I opened the window again and angrily threw my book at him,it hit his head and he fell down.
āAre you dead? Please tell me you are deadā i said.
āNo,am not,am indestructible,now that i have novel, you are not getting it backā
āStop being childish, give me my bookā
āRemove your contact lenses firstā
What kind of person is this?
I donāt think i can survive if this guyās room is close to mine.
