It has been months since Chris and I talked. Two months into the second semester makes it over four months we talked. I feel like a burden over my body, making me weak sometimes. I miss his jovial side and I hate that I had fallen for him deeply. He no longer wants to talk to me, making me wonder whether this, all that happened was my fault.
I did go home during the break of four weeks, making it kind of relaxing to finally be with my family. My brother, Mark, was over the moon when I explained how campus life was. The hassle, work, stress, and how some set of crazy lectures can kill you with assignments and research.
I still thought of Chris during my break home but it was less than that of being in that hostel of ours. I see him everywhere.
I almost froze at the realization of close contact with my body. I felt my body almost turning into jelly, wanting to rest my body on his, as his hand laid on my stomach. I breathe in the nice cologne as I realize who he was, Christopher. I felt my heart beat fast as I stood in the same position."I am sorry", his soft voice, with a hint of remorse and pleading penetrating through my ear making my stomach churn with mixed feelings.I turned as his right hand held me back, making me closer to him, a few inches apart as my hands fell on his chest. His eyes locked with mine as I could feel my inner mind telling me to get over the trance I am in as fast as possible.With my stomping heart, I moved ba
Things have been going well these past few weeks. Christopher has been the epitome of gentle nature and sticks to some important rules. To reduce the risk of giving in to our sexual cravings, we both decided to keep our physical distance to a minimum, which he adhered to willingly.Chris frequently visits his workplace. According to him, he applied for a part-time job in a mall during the whole scenario between us months ago. For now, I am mostly home alone, eating, sleeping, doing more of my snacks practical as well as sulking in my books."I learned you guys will be accommodating some students from other departments during the next semester", Joy said, breaking me out of my thoughts.
My heartbeat as I gazed at Raphael, who looked rather calm. For some seconds, the only thought that came to my mind was that he wanted revenge."Truth", I finally talked, as everyone's attention was on both of us." You are sure a scaredy-cat", Raphael teased, as a smirk grew in the corner of his lips."Abeg, you do not need to change his thought", Abigael pinpointed." It is okay. I choose Dare", I voiced out, to avoid any cause of quarrel.The look on everyone's face showed surprise, making me ask myself if I was sure of what I chose."Are you s
I stared blankly at my book, as my mind kept wandering at Chris's words, even though it has been months since he used those words GETTING PLAYED. It is already a new semester, the first one into my second year at the University.It has always been a morning anthem for Chris to remind me to be careful around boys. As much as that sounds a little bit off, I still listened to his instructions, staying closer to the girls than the boys.My attraction for Christopher keeps deaccelerating every day, as I am beginning to see him in a new form, more like a guardian. I once asked him whether he still has feelings for me but his response is vague, filled with uncertainty. Most of the time, he changed the topic ignoring what I asked him.He still goes for his part-time job, which gave me the vibes that he might still not have gotten over me. Maybe I'm overthinking but when I am conscious of something, it is always true or close to it. I have no
I gripped harder on the books in my hand as I saw him. Our eyes met, making me turn abruptly making my way to where I was seated before, a designated part of the lecture room, at the rear.Why does he look so much like him? The person I saw bears a strict resemblance with Ethan. The only difference was that the person I saw has pink lips instead of full red lips Ethan has. He also is taller than Ethan, with that more mature look and perception.I glanced slightly over to see if I can see him, as he was standing with the boys not too far from where I was sitting. He must have seen me earlier when we made eye contact. For some reason, I saw him turn back to look at me as he kept whispering something to his friends. I instantly covered my book as I rested my head on the desk. This is a nightmare.Time passed as they started moving out of the lecture rooms. Abigael said goodbye, seeing I still want to stay behind. The lecture room later became scanty a
He moved closer, his hands behind his back as I try to seem quite unbothered." I never wanted to be in the Medicine department. My dad forced me to since he is a Medical doctor", he said, and I could not help but stop on my track."I love observing plants and animals and wish to go into Biology. While my sister likes the medicine area, It gives me a headache sometimes with the chemical properties, blah, blah, blah all about medicine", he explained, his voice quite cold.I looked up at him, not sure of what to say." You are supposed to make your decision all by yourself. Don't feel sad about it, your observing skills will be helpful in terms of the surgery aspect especially. As for the tutor, I will try my best in that area", I voiced out finally giving in to his request, as he stared at me, a smile on his face."Really? Thank you very much", he said almost pulling me into a hug, which I stopped as I offered a handshake
My eyes flickered, slowly opening as the light from the bulb caused me to close my eyes again. I feel a hand around my body, my mind wandering. Opening my eyes again, I turned to see Joseph close to me, as he held me.I sprang out of the bed which startled him, as he woke up, rubbing his eyes slowly. At a thought, I looked down to notice I was still in the clothes Joseph gave to me."Hey, you are awake. I feel like still sleeping beside you", Joseph sat up looking at my afraid self." Why did you move so close to me? The bed is spacious enough. How did I end up on the other side of the bed", I asked feeling irritated even though I knew I was supposed to not argue with him, especially since I have spent a long day here."Oh! You are a pervert. Your body was quite warm, that was why I cuddled you, I want to feel warm too. Do you still want to stay here", he rambled on as I shot him a glare.I feel as if I have been exposed even though I haven
I could not help but keep staring at the person in front of me. He looks cuter than before, I thought. Standing sideways with his body partially resting on the door frame, his pink lips fuller. Dressed in a blue round neck, which made his abs revealing coupled with his new haircut. My eyes gaze down as I take in the nice smell of his cologne and view of his exposed legs which were hairy, making him more of a perfect body."Checking me out? Not bad.", Joseph brought me out of my reverie as my face flushed instantly.I can't believe I was mesmerized by his look. I'm so stupid. Trying not to be obvious with my liking for him, I hissed." Why are you here? I thought I told you not to vis
