Chapter 17I had goosebumps all over my body as I walked away from him. I got to my bed and I laid on it and the scenes kept flashing through my eyes you have pretty eyes goblin, I like them too. Wait what are you doing? the familiar voice that always stops me from my thoughts came in. I’m doing nothing I replied, are you thinking about Davis? Davis Garraway? Sub con asked. I rolled my eyes at her I’m not. Wow you really are, I thought you hate him, I did, huh I mean I do; I do. You do, and you are thinking of someone that just asked you if you are scared, he will hit run you again like he did before. You are just unbelievable.I just felt shock over what just happened I mean why did he say all those things he did to me, they all sounded sincere as he said all of them and why didn’t he try to retaliate after I gave him a piece of my mind, normal Davis would say something to try spite me as well, but he did not do that not seem a little off to you? Whether off or not still does not c
Chapter 18Davis Garraway and I grew up together, we were always together. Or technically he was always following me around in his ploy to taunt me.“Hey goblin where are you going to”“Goblin your hair is stuck in that door”“Now you goblin will carry my bag for me for 2 weeks”In the space of almost his lifetime that I have known him, he had never offered to see me politely it was always a commanding statement where he makes it look like I am his property and he bought me on discount sales. Everything he had wanted from me he ensured he got it by hook or crook, I mean we can use that night as an example. And then suddenly he stops a black BMW in front of me and requests to see me, he does not tell me or tell me it is fixed and he does not want disappointments, but he requests to see me, well that’s a first. Then he even offers to buy me ice cream just so I will come. And then why is he so upset that I’m going out with Derick, I mean he has a girlfriend, practically she is not his gi
Chapter 19Chillz n more, probably the biggest ice cream parlor in the whole North America, with branches everywhere. With the headquarters in California, yep California, Oakland precisely. Oakland houses the headquarter and the most expensive ice cream parlor in all of North America. That’s why I told you it was an honor to be studying at a school in Oakland.“We are arriving Chillz n more ice cream parlor just few miles left” the car’s GPS tracker spokeYep, he was taking me to Chillz n more, I was surprised and speechless. Like why would someone waste the money, time and effort of taking just anyone to Chillz n more for a supposed apology. And it is not like I am his girlfriend or something, neither am I his friend. Well technically you are, sub con spoke. I am not we are not friends have you forgotten? Well the both of are basically seatmates, you sit together in class and go to cafeteria together and you are technically sitting in his wine red SUV as we speak going with him on an
Chapter 20The outing was well spent, the evening was as beautiful as the sky that had appeared that night. I got to know a little about Derick Mclean, turns out I went for ice cream with a junior lord. Derick ensured that my night was eventful, after getting ice cream and talking, we went for a walk and came across a lake. We stood there and looked at the lake for a while. The moon had settled at the other side of the lake and it’s ray reflected so beautifully on the lake. It was indeed a beautiful sight. We played hide and seek at some point too.“Thank you for offering me ice cream at the library” I spoke“The pleasure is all mine” he responded “No, for reals this is the most fun I have had since I came to college” I added as he smiled“And you might not know but I enjoyed it way more than you did, I saw the most beautiful of smiles today” he said as he walked towards me What is happening champ, Derick is coming close to you. Mehn what should I do? You have 10 seconds to stop him
Chapter 21Davis finally agreed to help me and I followed him to his apartment. Davis stays outside the school, although his apartment is not that far from the school. We got to his apartment, it was a two bedroom apartment, with a sitting room and a kitchen, yep, I know it is a very comfortable apartment for just one person. It was had an aesthetic design. I figured it should, since we were kids, Davis had always liked aesthetics, he was into drawing, so yes, he would paint his room the way he wanted with the designs he imagined and they all turned out amazing so I would not argue the fact that he might be the one that styled the interior of his apartment.“Let me guess, you painted the interiors?” I asked“Nice guess goblin, I guess you might not be fully stupid after all” he repliedThe sitting room had a dull green and white shade, yep, the shade looked like his eyes. The painting looked like it had a deep meaning, if I would say it represented something but I just did not figure
Chapter 22The morning was bright and beautiful. My eyes were not opened yet but I could sense its beauty with the rays I received and the excitement the birds had in the tone they used to sing the morning song. I smiled in my sleep as I do not know why but I was abnormally happy that morning. I guess it is a sign of a good thing about to happen to me. “Wake up sleepy head” someone spoke as I felt someone tucking my hair behind my ears.“You look better this morning that you did last night” the voice spoke again and it sounded so familiar and it was definitely not Tiffany or Sam. I opened my eyes slightly and I saw a pair of perfectly shaped abs that stood like strands of hair in front of me. What the fuck? I can recognize that ab structure from anywhere, it was Davis Garraway. But wait what is Davis doing in my room anyways. In your room, seriously champ your room. Sub con spoke. As I opened my eyes and the dark greened eye fellow was leaning close to me and he gave me a slight k
Chapter 23It was Monday already; I know right time really flies. Well, the weekend went on faster than it usually does. After I had explained everything to my roommates, they told me to hang with the both of them separately and observe them then I will figure out which one I actually have the most feelings for. Hold up feelings are we talking about feeling, when did we reach the stage of feelings champ? Sub con spoke after a long while. Well sub con, where have you been all these time girl, you have missed ginger, spice and a touch of meatball. Okay that line was epic. I know right, I am now full on everything epic. Okay, okay, but seriously champ, feelings? What feelings? Feelings for who, feelings for what. I decide to go on a vacation for few days, few days! Emphasis on the days, and the owner of the mind I reside in decides she is all grown up that she does not need her sub consciousness anymore, quite disheartening. Stop with all your mellow drama sub con, listen it is not much
Chapter 24Parties in Starman college were not like regular parties, Starman always had unique parties. Regular parties will not require you dressing extra and all, but a Starman parties means you dress to impress. If you dress less, you will end up being the talk of the entire party and maybe the entire week or month depending on how the situation goes and how long it takes for someone else to claim the crown of shame. We arrived at the party, it was a business themed party, yep that was what inspired the dress I wore. You know when a CEO of a starting business especially a lady attends an event like that she dresses to seduce the top notch businessmen and claim her place at the top through manipulation, and yes I have watched a movie about that. So, we arrive at the venue and I see that everyone dressed their best and as usual I steal the spotlight unintentionally. “That dress is fire”“Woah, is that Gucci?”“She is always making us feel little about ourselves with her dresses” N
CHAPTER 33 The sight, the sight that was before me, was wondrous. a white frothy cascade of water falling into a plunge pool, the rocky outcroppings lined up vertically close to the pool, lichen, moss spread out on the horizon, slippery rock to walk on across the fall, lush grasses of pale green adding to the aesthetic, plants and flowers of different sizes, colors and shapes, i could have i sworn i saw one shaped like a butterfly, a light fog by the waterside, sprays on light water touching the rocks, rainbows, ripples and droplets on the grasses by the horizon, trees clinging to cliffs and overhanging the pool, butterflies sucking pollen from the flowers,birds flying in groups above the sky, flies of colors catching flights with the birds, dragonflies speeding past the eyes, fish splashing in the pool, sun baked rocks, soft beds of grass nearby… I can't even describe all, I looked and I was dumbfounded "This...This is bea
Chapter 32Lying on the bed staring at the 7 inch ceiling decorated with a nice work of aesthetics, I could only imagine the grid of suggestions Tiffany would bring to the table to spice up the whole room. I could not speak nor feel the pain that was draining my breath. I did not know how but drops of tears kept rolling from my eyeliner down to my cheeks, I could not bring myself to recognize the direction at which the pain had engulfed me so much that I produced those tears running down. I knew. I knew she was not coming back, I just wanted her to style me once more, for her to tell she puts on me seems to look stunning on me. She was already planning her 21st Birthday party. Tiffany believed so much in birthdays especially those that came with special entourage, but now sadly she could not turn 21 after all. She just died and left everything, absolutely everything.“But why, why” I kept asking myself or possibly the universe, as that night the world looked unfamiliar and through my
Chapter 31“Does it mean Davis has a thing for me now?” I asked myself as I laid on the bed in my room staring at the velvet color mixed with chocolate and milk colored ceiling. Although my relationship with Davis had gotten better, my full emotions had always been locked down with the belief that maybe, just maybe, Davis is playing with my feelings. But then after what he had said to me that evening “I could not bear seeing the both of you together” I have always heard that the only thing that would make a guy display jealousy for a girl is only when he is into her, does it mean Davis is really into me? Well damn girl, he was jealous? Sub con asked. Well yeah, I mean he said it himself so yeah, yeah he was. Woah so Davis, the Davis, Davis Garraway has shown interest towards you, I mean you. The same girl he calls goblin, well that is a really big twist to this story. You really do not need to rub it in that way sub con.Although sub con’s analysis was rather heart breaking she was rig
Chapter 30The afternoon was chill, it was cool and calm, with the cold breeze blowing from every direction, I could feel the wind blowing through my hair and into my ears. I felt peace and everything calm. “So, what will you have?” Derick asked Yep, we were already seated in a restaurant, the Jin&Jin. A British themed restaurant, well after we had our little British America face off and me stating the fact that the English are not one of the people I fancy, Derick decided that there was no other way top make me see the light than to experience it first hand. So here I am seated in the Jin restaurant waiting to be served“Soda water! What will you have?” Derick asked again“Anything American” I said flashing a smile as he chuckled “I see what you are trying to do young lady” he responded “You see what?” I asked“You asked me to place an order and that is what I am doing now” I added“Soda water” he added chuckling “I said place an order from the menu” he continued while I gav
Chapter 29I tried giving her the look of disapproval but my mom being who she is would certainly act like she does not understand the meaning. But hold up champ, what exactly is your problem with Derick coming over to your house for a meal. Well incase you have not realized it all these years but mom hardly invites people to the house for a meal. Well unless she believes it will benefit her in one way or the other. And so? How does that imply to Derick. I mean he is just your department mate who she picked interest in. I see you are not getting the point here sub con, but I would rather not stress it. let us wait for her to make her actions more understandable.Derick looked at her for a while and then he accepted her offer “I will be glad if you do. I will tell Charity to inform you when I have a suitable day within this week.”“Okay Mrs. Goldtown” he replied as he looked at me and winked “I will get going now Soda Water” he concluded as he left. I watched him walk away, well we
Chapter 28Well, I guess life has taken a good turn around for me, I was starting to feel good about myself, I now storm places like I am king. Yeah, storm maker, I do not remember asking for aid while I was talking sub con. You do not need to ask for help I am always available for you whenever you need or do not need me champ. I do not need you to add parts to my narration. Narration? Which narration? The narration where you exaggerate, day dream and then add parts that are not real? Since when do you storm places like a king champ? Lol. Okay I think that enough for now you can now leave. Well harsh, you do not have to chase me away that way champ, I literally come to show you what is true, when you are lost in your own day dream. Well, I do not remember asking you to aid me leave my dream. You can leave now sub con, bye bye. Fine I am going. Well screw that, where was I? oh yeah so, my life took a turn for the better, everything was looking good, I think I had lost that naïve res
Chapter 27“Hey ladies, did anyone order pizza” Davis spoke as he winked at me “Well yes and we got a hot boy as bonus. I should really start ordering pizza” Tiffany responded“So you work there?” Sam asked as she pointed at one of the pizza boxes. Then Davis chuckled and walked towards her “No sammy, no” he replied“Then what Davis”, Tiffany immediately added“Well I know this will sound as a shock to you guys but I paid the pizza delivery guy to hand me his attire and the pizza boxes” he added as we all stared at him in shock. “Woah, unlike Davis” Sam respondedWell love has the power to do anything. I mean he is obviously heads over heels for yours truly. Sub con added as she took a bow. Shiii do not say anything that is technically false. “And yes 20 pizza boxes? Who would eat all of those?” he asked as he sat down“Sam of course” Tiffany added “So, the both of you do not eat junk” Davis asked as he looked at ne“Well for me it is a maybe I am watching my weight. I added weig
Chapter 26That night was much more beautiful, than the other nights we spent together. By morning I woke up and I could not find anyone in the bed. Did he leave? He must have left. If he left then he is a jerk. I was still speaking to myself, when someone climbed in through the window.“I left to go get you hangover drugs, you were pretty drunk last night” Davis spokeI stared at him speaking and after he was done speaking. I did not know the words to use I was anxious inside and yes I could say now that I have fallen for Davis Garraway. “Did you hear me” he spoke again as that broke me from my trance. “What yes” I replied He came up to me and sat on the bed “How are you feeling” he asked as I looked at him. It was not something Davis would do taking care of someone, being nice to someone. Not just anyone but me, goblin. Oh that was not supposed to be included but anyways I saw a different side of him and that side had made me forget about the hate I had brewed in my heart for
Chapter 25The party continued but we had stopped playing the game prior to what Derick had said. We drank and drank; okay I drank and drank till the alcohol was in control. Shortly after I went to the dance floor and I danced. Just then shape of you by Ed Sheeran started playing.“This is Charity’s favorite song” Sam spoke On hearing this Derick stood up immediately and went to the dance floor and Davis followed him.“May I have this dance my lady” Derick spoke as he stretched out his hands. I was about to take it when Davis intervened “No, you may not, the dance is taken” Davis replied“I do not remember asking you Garraway” Derick added“And I just informed you Mclean” Davis responded as he grabbed my waist“I do not think it is polite to grab a lady’s waist whenever you feel like it” Derick spoke“Well Mclean, if that lady is your I think that that polite gesture is not quite needed” Davis responded Immediately Derick grabbed my hand and pulled me towards him “I got here first
