I am not having a tea party with you. This is a serious matter and it needs to be addressed now.

Everyone instantly went silent and Jerry stares at her in wonder. “We have been in this DAMN office for fifteen minutes and neither of you is ready to SHUT UP! I am sick of listening to meaningless screaming and quarrel! If you all can’t settle your differences like normal people, at least be mature to do it!” Maria expresses.“You know I didn’t want them here but you let them stay.” Rex points out to Maria.“Son, why are you referring to us as strangers?” Marcelo frowns at Rex.“You are been strangers since you and mom left!.” Rex snaps angrily.“Rex!- I’m sorry Sir Angelo, Rex is a little… confused an

COLLEGE LIFE DAY 2:School resumption. Last night was a different story. I woke up early this morning for my first day just as Janet told me, we have to be in school on time. I lazily reached out for my phone on the dresser by my bed to check the time ‘6:30 am, still early for me. If I can get ready within an hour, thirty minutes is a small time to dress up. Our bedroom was dimly lit, when I looked across my bed Janet wasn’t on her bed. I assumed she might have woken up earlier and probably gone downstairs. Living in a five-star hotel dorm tempted me into missing my first day, no, no I am not taking that chance. So I got up, took my clothes from my last bag that I haven’t sorted out, and head to the bathroom. I’ve calculated my timing, everything I am about to do, out of thirty minutes I used fifteen minutes to shower. It was amazing, my body felt great from the warm water beating softly against my skin. After my bath, I got dressed then arrange

I don’t know… I don’t remember the room number. She is very gorgeous and pretty though.” One man compliment to the other.“I know right, but I bet she is not from around here.” The second man replies.“Yeah Gabe, I know. I like her voice and the way she walks… it’s so-- pleasant.” The first man commented with a dreamy smile on his lips. From the corner, just few rooms from them. Freddy glared at both men.

He promised to send me one last month so he sent two this month to make up for last month. It’s how we say sorry to each other.” Janet spoke in a dreamlike manner. She is sure in her own fantasy ‘weird roommate’“Are you a foreign student?” I changed the topic, I think I was done listening to her weird love tales. If I want to be friends with her I need to know who she is and what she’s capable of.“Not really.” Janet shrugged and kept patting this parcel she was yet to reveal. Not that I want to know what is in there but we are humans and humans get curious ‘Lorena do not try to peep into the parcel’ I warn myself.“Not really?” I repeated her question.“Yeah I am sort of in between

We both entered the luca carrier as Linda calls it. From my thoughts and slight fear for elevators I expected the old fashioned thing to fall off, hang or do something out of this world, but I can’t believe it actually worked perfectly. My percentage for trusting this thing was very low that I was very positive it won’t be able to carry both Linda and I, much less carry much weight like my heavy bags. But- but it proved me wrong and carried us to the third floor without any problems and for the first time my phobia didn’t embarrass me.Linda opened the skeleton door for us and gave me some room to push my trolley out. I quietly followed Linda through the narrow hallway but I wasn’t sure when we will ever stop with this large door to door rooms and unending hallways, then I chose to start a conversation so as not to make things more weird.“Um Linda, can the luca carrier be also used as an elevator? Um- just in case we need some lifting asi

I mean what if I don’t fit in here? What if coming here was a big mistake? God I should have talked to my pastor about it. I groaned knowing there was not backing out from this because I chose to do it.‘Lorena, it is not everything you got to tell your pastor, look for instance the word sex and baby making.’“I know but don’t you have better examples?” I cringed at how dirty my other self was.‘of course I could bring suggestions like no other, but you know what I mean when I talked about the pastor thing’“I could have agreed with you but I can’t and that is not the reason I am bothered.” I tell Lil ora.
