"You are always on her side and you are doing this just to make her feel good. That is not how it should work Monica. Learn how to talk senses into her." Arnold dropped the face towel in his hand on the dressing table.
He was just coming down from the gym when I started this argument.
"Senses you said? Is she a kid Arnold? She is old enough to sleep in her man's house, she is old enough to have someone by her side, a companion and you are against it. Where has she gone wrong?" I followed him as he paced around the room.
"She is old enough, but she is not mature enough. Loveth still act as a kid, don't you get? I don't want her to think she is independent, as long as she still lives with me then she should let me make the decision for her. I know what I am saying." He halted and dropped his hand on his waist.
"You think you can? But I can't make decision for her? Right? Isn't that what you think? Am I not like a sister to her?" I dropped the dress I was fo
"Ai!!" Mum screamed out my name. I still didn't volume down the loud music buzzing all over my room. "You need to hurry, you are late for school.""I am coming mum." I responded in a loud voice as the music swallowed half of my voice.I moved my body and sang along the hip hop music by ed-sheeran and Justin bieber titled "I don't care". I flicked my white, long sleeve, well ironed shirt onto my back, then I buttoned up as I shook my head to the song.Yes! This is what I inherited from my parents', neatness. I picked the short plitted skirt on my well laid bed in pink bed sheet.Yeah! When I'm with my baby yeah! Oww! I packed my long hair– just like mum's in buns, then I flipped my back pack on my back.Set for school. I checked out myself at the mirror. My colorful tie was well placed, and my hair was well combed.I turned off the music that played through the pink MP3. I inspected my room once again as my eyes bumped into the well decorated wall by my parents' of course.My pictures w
"Hey you!"I stopped at my pace.Was that to me?I looked back to see a short dark skinned boy in the same uniform as mine. I scratched my head and wrapped my arm over my bosom, waited up for him."What's up?" He got to me and stretched his hand forward for a handshake."You are so rude you know?" I rolled my eyes at him and walked away."Hey! I just asked for a handshake. Is that too much to ask for?" He met up with me."Why must you want to shake hands with a girl? Respect ladies, that should be the rules. Right?""I don't think I disrespected you that way." I stared into his black eyeball. He had an attractive look on the face and a full hair in the eyes."According to my parents' which I know myself it is right, it is disrespectful." I halted and his silky hair brushed my eyes.He chuckled, "really? OK, my bad. I am Brayden and you?"Was that funny? If not for his cuteness, I would have just ignored him, but he was still nothing compared to my dad. I must say, mum chose smartly."
"Come on Ai!" Brayden dragged me out of the class like a hero he thought he was, down to the school corridor where had became silent.Teachers had got themselves in each classes, students' had been engaged in school activities too. The few sound that was heard was that of the teachers as they gave their explanation and few chortled of students' that must had been the result of teachers funny gestures. I jerked my hand away from him. I took over the grip ness and we both headed down to the terrace. I paced down to where flowers are being used as decoration. Students' project of plants was placed carefully at the corner of the terrace.I turned back to see Brayden wrapped his arm around his chest. I could saw he was expecting me to say something."Why did you interfere?" Word found itself out. "You should have just let go, why did you do that?" My voice raised up unexpectedly."I can't sit there and acted like nothing is wrong. I gat to do something." He defended, of course he would def
Kelvin yanked Brayden hair while he knelt on the floor. His lips bled in blood, his face had already been branded with little bruises. He groaned as his hair was almost pulled out.A tall and slimmed figure, one of Kelvin's squad smashed the bucket of water in his hand to Brayden's face. He breathed in and out as his eyes almost closed.Kelvin let go of tbe hair, then Brayden ended up laying on the floor. He groaned as Kelvin kicked him with his heavy boot – there were three tall guys that stood behind Brayden, included the one that splashed the water, where two of those are SS3 students', can't believe they could be so dumb to call their junior 'boss'. They folded their hands on their loosed tie. They rolled up their sleeve and had their upper button opened, their shirt was turk out of their trouser. They smirked as Kelvin do justice to the innocent new boy."Next time, you don't messes with me and if you failed to show up by 7:00am tomorrow, you will be ruined." He kicked him again
"Hey! Brayden! I have been here for few minutes and you just sat down there acting du–"Gosh! Calm down Ai!"Dumb right?" He feasted his eyes on me while he plopped down on the wooden chair at the library. "You can insult me as you want Ai, go on!" He focused back on the physics textbook in front of him.I grabbed the chair in front of the long table and dropped my hand on the table. "Sorry! I– I am sorry for what they did to you because of me. I am sorry for not appreciating what you did on my behalf. I am sorry for my rude behavior towards you and I am –""It is fine Ai," he leered at me. "I am not angry at you." His voice came out calmly."Are you sure?" I gaped at him."Yes, I just wanna avoid a close relationship." He focused on the book like I wasn't the one he was talking to."Are you kidding me? Why? That means you are still angry at me. I am cool to be with, I –""Ai! I am not. Can we just end this discussion right now.""Is it Kelvin?""Ai! Please!""Al–"Just then, Kelvin s
The sunset showed it ray of yellow colour from a distanced to me, closed to where the students' played football. Some set of people ran after the ball in different colour of sports wear. They had their coach, Saleem. And they had an average guys as their post keeper.Few ladies jogged around the field making sure they were not closed to the football field. The whispered of the footballers took over the whole field.I walked down a little longer and viewed Brad and Lina chatting closed to the audience section. I stopped as my hand was on my bag handled. Lina released her beautiful smile, and he did the same.I wondered what this was all about.They took a glimpse of me as they both tilted their head to my direction. Sweat slipped down his forehead, then a small dropped of the liquid was visible on his small beards. I wrapped my arm around me. They looked back at each other, smiled and waved hands as Brad scurried back to the field."Hey babe!" Lina rushed down to me."What was that abou
"Do you also think I am proud?" We both sat down on the bench attached to the wall at the terrace. My head was on his shoulder. Tears couldn't find itself."No! I am actually lucky to know someone like you.""Really?" I raised my head to stare at him."Hmm! Hmm! From the first day I met you, I know you would be a unique person.""Eish! I am not flattered.""That makes you different." He said with a smiling face."Are you trying to ma –"He burst out laughing."Kidding me?" "I am not. Not even a single tears fall off Ai. I am scared of you right now." He teased.I let out a giggled. "I don't know what is wrong with me. I am okay actually, but will you ever stop intruding." "Maybe if it is all about you. I will never stop," he held my hand on my lap. "Ai! I am sorry for earlier.""For what exactly. For messing up my hair or for thinking that of me?" I still put on a smiling face."For all!" We both laughed out loud. "For Kelvin too.""I am not hurt by whatever happened down there. I am
My eyes landed on a fair skin lady that has her sit beside ours. She had her hair bonded like mine and she was chatting with a guy in front of her."Guess you are playing games with me kid." Kelvin sit back, relaxed.I glared at Brad as his gaze were still on Kelvin."Now I get this. You have been avoiding me because of him right?" I looked back at Kelvin. "Do you threaten him to stay away from me?"He cackled irritatedly. "It is just a deal. He will never stop interfering," he shrieked, "because he is in love with you, right kid?""Hmm!" I ogled at Brad, then he just smirked."Even if you keep interfering, that won't stop me from moving close to her." He grabbed me on the arm aggressively."Hey!" Brad screamed, full of raged."Calm down. Since you don't keep your promise then, I won't keep mine either.""What the fuck is going on here? As Ai becomes a deal between you guys now?" Lina said in a verge of tears."Hey you!"Lina gasped out anxiously."Hey!" I yelled back at him, then ever
