Chapter EightIt was finally My Big day,"Happy Birthday Honey", my mom screamed out and scared me the morning of November 18. But it was surprising and nice of her since she wished me before anyone else. It was my eighteen birthday and it was my day. While looking out the big windows in my room, I thought to myself, I will do what satisfies me today, but wasn't quite sure what? I didn’t receive any calls from my friends, or other relatives. Nobody was home either besides my mom with whom I can’t make plans because she got her own work to do. It depressed me because it seemed like this was going to be one boring eighteen birthday.After half an hour of waiting for someone to call and my sister and dad to come home also thinking about what to do. I gave up and went to take a shower. When I came out, my bed was made and my mom called me down for breakfast, which I didn’t feel like having. I just drank a glass of orange juice. My mother went to the porch to sit. After a few seconds I deci

Chapter TenOn the morning after Christmas, the mind drifts back to sweet memories of familial joy, of Aunt Mary who I wasn't able to talk to due to my friends raucous laugh and Uncle Larry’s delightful mirth. Or maybe it’s a day defined more by the fact that Rey and chloe still hasn’t gone home.I secretly long to be at the mall, purging the bad, starting anew, hoping that next year I’ll be a more grateful person. Or get better stuff . Chloe went home already while Rey went to my room to get ready. He came downstairs when he was done the sat beside and decided to break the silence."Issa!" He called my name passionately "Would you like to go on a date with me?, Me, you and food,” He asked. “I’d like that a lot,” i answered . Rey asked: “Lol, the food part?” to which he replied: “The you part. Okay I will"Alright I will pick you up tommorow evening"he said and Gave me a forehead kiss *THE NEXT MORNING* 🌸Isabella POV🌷When I woke up this morning all I can think about is
Chapter ElevenHe leads me to a small table in a quiet restaurant. A late hour for dinner, most of the tables are empty. He pulls out a chair for me. I sits. He sits across from me. The only light is from a few well placed candles. A waiter approaches and, without saying a word, pours us wine and leaves the bottle. No menus. He has ordered for them in advance. There will be no interruptions from wait staff aside from the bringing and clearing of the courses.🌺Rey POV 🌸Iwatched her as she sips the wine. She noticed. And blushed. A shy smile slips out. I loved watching here. A voyeur looking into a secret world. I smiles warmly back as if to comfort here. It does.She began to enjoy his gaze. Soaking it in. Feeling my eyes move over her. From her eyes to her nose, cheeks, lips. The curve of her neck. Slope of her shoulders. Her chest. The tiny bit of cleavage just peeking out from her dress. "Gosh what am I doing?"Again, she blushes. This time. Back to sipping wine.🌷🌺❤️❤️❤️They lo
Chapter TwelveAfter i drop her at her house I went home, I walked inside and my mom was standing right there. She asked “how did it go” and I said, “Mom,it was amazing.” She pulled me to her self and sat me down on the sofa "Tell me more" "Mom I'm tired"Please honey or did she break your heart?.No!Ok I asked her to be my girlfriend and she accepted "OMG We are both going to her parents house to greet them. "Mum,that not necessary ,she just my girlfriend. "Yeah I know I could feel the connection when you two were kissing". "WHAT! were you spying on me again?. "Maybe a little".

Chapter Thirteen.I got up early in the morning due to an improper sleep during the previous night. It was due to the anxiety to start fresh with my new life. I was determined to be the best in whatever it is that I do, so that I would have something to be proud of in the pages of my life. Due to the fear of reaching late during my first day, I reached one hour earlier than necessary and decided to spend some time at GHS which is located right beside the University. I was hoping that time would move a lot faster because I wanted to find out about what was going to happen next. But it is a common fact that if we are anxiously waiting for something, time would seem to crawl a lot slower. When it was finally the time to head back to the campus, I hoped for everything to go on smoothly, just as how I expected it. I braced myself and went to meet Sofia, who was responsible for the new students, to inquire about my Lecture room. After being instructed on which room to go to, I started walki
