.. Then Frederic went on his way while Vania knocked on the door. Zed came quickly to open it.
"Oh you are there!" he said "Yes, can I come in? Or are you with a girl?" asked Vania "Hmm no you can come in." "Wow, I hadn't noticed how small our room was, yours is even bigger." Vanya exclaimed. "Really, please sit down." said Zed Vania sat down on the sofa and put two books and a pen on the small coffee table. "So Zed where do we start" she questioned? They exchanged a noncommittal smile and then Zed sat down next to her. "You have some good books, I've been looking for these authors for a long time, I like their theories on media communication so much," says Zed. Vania smiled wanly. They spent some time studying and making short presentations. After a while Vania sighed: "I think we've studied enough, I already have everything I need for tomorrow." "Are you sure ?" asked Zed "Certainly." answered Vania "I can already imagine you wowing the audience who are watching you attentively." said Zed smiling "I don't know if I'll make it Zed" says Vania "I know you'll rock." reassured Zed "It's easier to say it. What do we do now?" asked Vania "What time is it ?" Zed replied. Vania glanced at her cell phone. "Soon 8:00 p.m." she announced Zed felt his blood circulation stop. He was starting to sweat😓 "Oh are you hot?" Exclaimed Vania, "yet there is air conditioning" "No it's okay" Zed said. He wanted to tell her that it was over and that she had to leave already, but the silhouette of Frédéric imposed itself on his mind. He saw him again in the spirit of saying to him: < > "You don't feel well, it shows" resumed Vania in a lugubrious tone. "Vania, can I speak to you frankly?" he asked in a gravelly voice. " All right." approved Vania "There, I had to tell you this for a while but I didn't really know how you would take it." said Zed "Well what Zed?" asked Vania "I like you a lot. I can't detach from my mind. And today when you smiled at me while I was facing my opponent I felt like enlightened." confessed Zed Vania looked him straight in the eye without interrupting, her hand on her chin. She should surely take pleasure in his speech. "Your presence played a big role," Zed continued. "We are fighting for a trophy but for me the best trophy would be the gift of your heart I think I love you more than I can express to you." he concludes "Wow! I'm flabbergasted Zed" said Vania. "I saw it in your eyes that you were mentally devouring me." Zed frowned. "So what do you say now? You're giving me a chance to make you queen of my kingdom." asked Zed Zed himself couldn't believe he had said that to Vania. "Hum you know it's true that I find you very nice Zed but are you sure that you and me can work?" Vania worried. "It's not about whether or not it will work Vania, it's about giving us a chance to open a new page and write our story there. Maybe we'll both end up at the end of the book…" reassured Zed with romance. "So I never imagined you would say that to me. I really want to give you a chance, Zed." said Vanya "Really?" asked Zed "Yes." answered Vania She had that snake look on him. Zed was about to give her a kiss when Vania's phone rang, it was her friend Yvette. "Hello my darling, we're looking for you everywhere, you left without telling us where you were going" growled Yvette "You were still sleeping when I left. But I'm with Zed we study together you know tomorrow it's our turn." said Vanya "Ah OK." Yvette exclaimed. "I'll come when we're done." said Vanya "Great see you soon!" said Yvette "Yes not soon." answered VaniaThen she hung up. "So where were we?" she asked, putting the phone down on the coffee table. "I believe you were confiding in me." replied Zed "Okay, I'll give you a chance. But you have to promise me that you won't be one of those who play with the feelings of the Zed girls." said Vanya "I think you know me well enough not to know that playing the Don Juan is not my forte." said zed "You never know huh" says Vania "I love you very much Vania and I want if you want I will make you the woman of my life." replied Zed " It goes straight to my heart Zed I love you too. But everything is not sure yet to consider the best and the worst, we must finish our studies before tackling the question." said Vanya "That's good. Are you thirsty? I paid for some sodas." zed asked "Oh yes very thirsty." answered Vania Zed went quickly to unpack his packaging and took two sodas from it. Opened it for Vania and handed it to her. "Take care of yourself my darling!" "Cheers my darling!" replied Vania After taking a sip Vania asked: "Can I ask you a question Zed?" " Yes go ahead" "How many girls have you courted?" "Hmm, I don't have a mania for flirting with anything that moves Vania." he answered "Oh please don't tell me I'm your first love?" said Vanya "And why are you interested in the question?" asked Zed "You are young and beautiful and surely you will find other girls prettier than me" said Vania "If it can reassure you Vania in my eyes you are the last prototype of beauty that God has created. I don't think any other girl would look prettier to me than you." replied Zed "You make me dream Zed. You're trying to drive me crazy about you that's it huh" exclaimed Vania smiling "Why not" replied Zed, smiling too. "I want to be honest with you. There was a guy at my university who was chasing me. I was about to crack when we were announced for the conference and luckily I passed the test and I been selected." confessed Vania "Now you're worried that when it's all over he might start again and you'll accept his advances?" asked Zed "It's a bit of that. But rest assured sweetie. I fell in love with you Zed since middle school and you were too dumb not to see it." reassured Vanya "Hum, I remind you that there was this photo story that ruined everything." Zed reminded "It's true that everything went into a spin at that moment. When you turned your back on me that day, I cried all the tears in my body..." confessed Vania " That's true ?" asked Zed "And even worse it was the same day your dad got killed Oh my god you have no idea how I felt when I heard the news Zed. It all happened so fast." replied Vania "Indeed yes, it is a moment in my life that I remember with bitterness." said Zed"And since then you haven't set foot in college again. I thought it was because of me." said Vanya "It wasn't your fault my dear, by the way I kept your image in my head." said Zed "What a beautiful old time huh you remember your friend Nathan?" asked Vania "Yes, we saw each other once or twice after my father's death, at that time we were already preparing our trip." replied Zed "He was very upset you left you were his best friend." said Vanya "He was too for me." replied Zed "Can I ask you a question Zed?" asked Vanya "Hmm again!" Zed exclaimed. "Tell me why you were always late to college?" asked Vania "Let's say I was up late" replied Zed "You were the king of delays" said Vania "And you the brawl queen" replied Zed "Oh never I never fought in college" answered Vania "You were looking for fights and your friends were ending them. Everyone was afraid of you." said Zed "Even you huh" replied Vania "At least I had the chance to approach you and I remember this #Stella who she thought she wanted all the guys to bow to her" says Zed "She had her ego. And you know what happened to her?" asked Vania "What did she die?" replied Zed "No, pregnant shortly before taking the baccalaureate exams. Her incorrigible father forced her to marry." replied Vania "Oh, with his grimaces and his airs of Queen Elizabeth, a guy dared to impregnate him?? How I would like to shake his hand that one" laughed Zed "Don't make fun of her. She was also my friend." said Vanya "Ah what a beautiful time, I still remember like it was yesterday." said Zed Vania put her half-empty soda on the table next to the books. "Enough about the past sweetie. You know we'd be forced into a long distance relationship since we live in different towns." she says "I know. But you know my uncle Yannis still lives in the same city, during the holidays I go to his house and soon it will be the Christmas holidays we will meet again." said Zed "Do you promise me that you will come?" Vania asked. "Promising you is not enough I guarantee you that I will come from time to time." reassured Zed "Okay. I love you my darling" said Vania "And me even more my darling. Can I ask you something?" asked Zed "What ?" retorted Vania "Can you give me a kiss I'm dying to kiss you Vania." asked Zed She gave him a dazzled look. "Oh men always too anxious." said Vania "It's because you're so beautiful." said Zed "Ok just a kiss I have to go home already" Vania gave in. Zed leaned into her lips and snatched a fiery kiss from her. Vania had to pull away from his lips. "Oh that's enough! Do you want to rip them off or what" she moaned. "Sorry the taste of your lips intoxicates me." Zed apologized Vania picked up her books from the table. "There I have to go." said Vania "See you tomorrow darling I wish you good luck with your debate." said Zed "Thank you darling bye and good night." said Vanya "Thank you too I love you" said Zed "I love you Zed" says Vania Then Zed closed the door behind her. He went to throw himself into his bed. He dreamed of her with his eyes open…. He never felt in his skin as he was. He remembered his conversation with Vania. Thus Frédéric was right: Once you get started, you will be amazed at the fluidity of your words… Vania met her friends who were waiting for her... "You look good Vania, were your lessons with Zed?" Launched Yvette a little ironically. "Let go of me, I'm tired" replied Vania.Then she went to lie down looking pensive. Surely she must have been thinking about that time spent with Zed… Zed hadn't slept a wink until Frederic was back. "What's sleeping like that man?" Asked Frederic Zed flashed a bright smile. "Fred guess what!" "Oh oh let me guess you did it??" Frederic asked " YES !!!" Zed replied he had almost shouted. "Oh no, I don't believe it, you finally succeeded" said Frédéric "You were right, it wasn't as complicated as it looked." said Zed "And I who thought you were going to play the sissy again, go give me Five" said Frédéric Zed gave him a hand. "We have to celebrate that" suggested Frédéric. "Yeah but there's nothing to drink." said Zed "These idiots forbid us to go out after 10 p.m." said Frédéric "But who said that to drink you just have to go out, you just have to order the hotel service, I have a little change." said Zed "Good idea, what are we ordering champagne?" asked Frederic "Hmm no vodka." said Zed Frederic jumped on the landline and placed the order. A few minutes later, a man came to deliver the drink. 4 bottle of vodka. "I have a feeling it's going to be a party, my friend," said Frédéric. "You have to let off steam a little, you deserve it." "Yeah man you don't know how glad I am I even kissed her." said Zed "Oh the cow! So you assured go mole there." Frederic said They spent the time chatting. "Come on man tell me everything" inquired Frédéric. Zed began to narrate everything without omitting any detail. " Wow I'm proud of you. But you know I don't like long distance relationships." Frederic said "It's not that complicated. I'll spend all the holidays with my uncle, we'll see each other often." said Zed "Cool, I'm raising my glass to Zed, the man who finally knew how to break the ice in front of his beloved Vania" commented Frédéric raising his glass. The boys drank too much alcohol and fell asleep half drunk……… To be continued!….Zed began to narrate everything without omitting any detail. "Wow I'm proud of you. But you know I don't like long distance relationships." said Frederic "It's not that complicated. I'll spend all the holidays with my uncle, we'll see each other often." said Zed "Cool I raise my glass to Zed the man who finally knew how to break the ice against his beloved Vania" commented Frédéric. The boys drank too much alcohol and fell asleep half drunk…… The next morning around 7:30 am as usual, all the students met in the great hall for a lunch before the start of the lecture. Zed and his friend Frédéric occupied a table at the back of the room. "I don't like these stupid vegetables they take us for vegetarians or what I want to bite into a beef steak!!" growled Frederic "I'm fine with me" said Zed "That's it and you'll end up herbivorous" replied Frédéric "Stop your bullshit." said Zed "By the way, I haven't seen Vania and her gang" said Frédéric "I've been trying his cell ph
EPISODE 08 ….Zed came and sat next to Vania. "So darling what is it?" "I got a call from my sister saying #Kalvin came home," she said with trembling lips. "But who is Kalvin???" Asked Zed who understood nothing "It's a long story Zed" answered Vania Vania "But go ahead and tell!" said Zed "Well guys I think I have to leave you!" Frederic said heading for the door. "Okay man" Zed agreed. Then he turned to Vanya. "So darling what's the matter?" "By the way Kalvin is the son of a friend of my dad's. We were friends when we were still kids. Kalvin's father, because of their friendship, proposed to my father the idea of marrying off their children. In this I was just a kid at the time. My father accepted and promised that after my studies the marriage would be concluded. Kalvin went to Japan to study automotive engineering. I had almost forgotten him. But tonight As soon as I wanted to take my notes to read a little, my sister called me and informed me that Kalvin was pa
Episode 09 …..Jessy indeed came to join them. "Please Frédéric, my phone is running out of charge yet I have to make an urgent call can you lend me your phone?" She asked looking worried. "Oh sorry mine stayed in the room at least my friend Zed has some. Can you help him Zed?" Frederic asked "Okay no problem, hold on." gave in Zed Zed handed his phone to Jessy. " Thank you very much." said Jessy As she picked up the phone Vania and her gang entered the gym. She looked suspiciously at Zed as she saw Jessy fiddling with her phone. She concludes that the girl gave her her number. Slowly they approached Zed and his friend. "Hi girls, you're all beautiful" launched Frédéric question to lighten the atmosphere. "Hi guys I see you're busy…" remarked Vania "Hi honey, this is Jessy." Presented Zed embarrassed "Oh Jessy we are delighted me it's Vania and here are Mya and Yvette" said Vania Jessy shook everyone's hand. "I'm glad to meet you too," she replied. "Pardon my curi
…..The looks they exchanged were more than spellbinding. Zed began to kiss her Vania seemed to be carried away by the voluptuousness of the action. Suddenly the door opened abruptly… It was Frederic who was back… Vania and Zed jumped as if electrocuted. Zed released her. "Oh sorry I didn't know you were there Vania" apologized Frédéric "It doesn't matter, I already wanted to leave" sighed Vania Zed didn't flinch. "Good night guys especially rest tomorrow is a big day" she said before closing the door behind her. Frederic took off his jacket, suffocated by the heat. "Dude I know you're mad at me but trust me I didn't know she was there" he shuddered as Zed still kept his cool. "It'll be fine man" he finally said. "But frankly you couldn't land at our moment you put us to shame" said Zed "Mdr, so you already wanted…." Frederic said "Hmm I don't know anyway things were getting out of control" said Zed "Hum you have to be careful my old man you risk getting pregnant since y
…..Everyone laughed. The nurse was amused by the question. "Well, you just have to get sick huh" she answered before continuing on her way. "Dude, I've never seen anyone who wishes they were sick," Zed whispered. "Because I won't be treated by just anyone..." said Frédéric A car was already waiting outside. They were brought up to return to the conference… The protest had continued under other questions in an attempt to keep the guests busy. When the speaker was informed of Vania's condition, he announced his participation in the proceedings and placed her second in his team. So it was Zed and another student from another university who would open the ball. "So my dear students, you will first talk briefly about journalism, then you will confront yourselves with questions that are either in the perspective or the challenges of the profession of a journalist" announced the speaker. "I therefore give the floor to Mr. Zed to begin." "Thank you very much Mr. Speaker, it is a g
…Everyone chuckled. After the 15min. The speaker took the floor again and said: "His Excellency Mr. President, dear professors, dear members of the World Press Rights Organization, distinguished guests in your respective titles and capacities, we thank you for having taken part in this scientific conference in the field of journalism and media communication. Several students came from 4 corners of our country to participate but only four made it to the final. These students deserve your encouragement. Without further ado, I invite the president of the jury to publish the results." announced the speaker Everyone's hearts were pounding as the president of the jury took the stage. He spread his paper on the apron and said: "His Excellency Mr. President, dear professor and members of the World Press Rights Organization, these days that animated the unique conference will go down in the scientific history of our nation. These young and brilliant students have given us gave hope an
…Zed reached into his pocket. "This beautiful little watch I bought in one of the supermarkets." said Zed "Wow she is beautiful thank you so much." said Vania After she put her on her arm, she gave Zed a hug. Then she went to the departure lounge where her friends were waiting for her. A few minutes later, we heard the grunt of a plane taking off. "I will really miss her" whispered Zed Frederick frowned. "What I'm going to miss is this city." he said "Shit! If the conference could last all year" "You're just a show-off man." said Zed "I'm telling you the truth just in one week I met 9 beautiful and pretty girls, you have to believe that this city is the pantheon of glamour." Frederic said "Stop your spiel, our boarding is at noon we still have 3 hours ahead of us." said Zed "Great, and I keep wondering why this hostess is staring at me..." said Frédéric " Who is that ?" asked Zed "Look at the one checking the bags." Frederic said "No, but it's not going well Fr
…"Well listen madam, I wouldn't want to abuse your hospitality. You've already done a lot for me now, I have to get back on my way" said Zed "Please just wait a few minutes for my husband to be back. It won't be courteous of you to leave without saying goodbye to him. Besides, I asked my daughter to make you some lunch," the lady said. "Well ok can you hold on to it, I'll wait a moment" Zed yielded. A few minutes later, the man returned accompanied by his son and daughter. After an animated greeting, the man said: "It is an honor for me to have you in my home." "I don't know how to thank you Mr François." said Zed "It's not worth it. I present to you my son #Joshua" said François "I'm delighted he looks like you" said Zed "Yes and my second daughter #Miriam" said François “She has all the traits of her mom,” Zed joked. "Exactly" interjected the mother. A few minutes later, the eldest daughter came to announce that lunch was ready. The lady set the table and we came to pu
