I was flabbergasted because she was my classmate. As a matter of fact, she sat beside me in almost every class back then.
The real Engender for all is the fact that she was at our family party. Gazillion questions rushed in my mind, wondering, is she part of the family? Is she my close relative? No way! I said a lot of things in front of that kid!
The thing is, my first day at school was a veritable nightmare for me. There was this big guy named Tony. He is a Retaker in Advanced level, so he’s like an Alpha Lion in the Jungle or Silverback gorilla in the pack! The lecturer wasn’t in class.
“Hey kid, what’s up?” I slowly raised my head to see this guy sitting at my writing desk with complete confidence. In my head, I still wasn’t comprehending why he’d call me a “Kid” while I was 20 years old!
I realized it was a bully already, so I didn’t say a word and instead reached my bag for my glasses. Deep down in me, I knew that If I answered him, we’d end up fighting, and I’d be expelled from the school on the first day. Why would I get expelled? Oh yeah, glad you asked: I am a martial artist and I have a black belt, so I can knock him down in no time.
“Whoa! This kid has glasses. Let the Auction begin!”
He said, laughing hysterically as he pulled my glasses off my hands. I just cooperated, otherwise I’d end up breaking my glasses.
“they cost a fortune though!” He said, heading in front of the class, grabbing his water bottle and heading to the lecturer’s table. Then he sat down.
Using a water bottle as a gavel, he was shouting as he banged it to the table, mimicking the Auction
“a cent one... A cent two.... And a cent.... “ He didn’t finish his sentence as a Calm and Tall girl entered the class. All the students were laughing at me and cheering that Tony guy but suddenly they were all quiet like they saw a principal or some authority or staff member!
I thought she was a lecturer, but it felt absurd because she was like 19 years old.
She said angrily, “Auction? That’s ridiculous! Is this how you treat a newcomer?”
I realized that she might be a leader or something in the class.
Tony stood up and headed back to his seat, handing me my glasses.
The Girl saw an empty seat beside me and she approached me, throwing her bag to the floor and shaking my hand simultaneously.
she said, “Hi, I’m Taylor”
“Dave,” I said nervously as she sat down with me.
Normally, when I was a kid, I used to bend my fingers backward when I was nervous. But now that I’m grown up, I can’t do that anymore! Plus, there was a girl besides me.
Luckily, a couple of minutes later, the lecturer came in and we started class.
The bell rang. It was recess time. I didn’t want to leave the class and suddenly she would not go out either.
“So you’re new in the school, huh?” She said, turning her head to face me.
“um, yeah I’m a newbie here!” I answered, trying to look cool, but I was really nervous.
Well, at my age I’m not supposed to be that nervous in front of girls, but I didn’t know if I would crush on her instantly or if it was something else.
“I’m a headgirl in this class”
“headgirl?”
“yeah kinda like Class Representative, but at Grade level”
“oh yeah, I get it now”
We continued talking. but honestly, deep down, I wasn’t interested in conversations! My mind was noting and registering every single character of hers. That’s when I noticed that she was so beautiful.
After class, we continued hanging out a lot, until she took a bus to her house and I went home too.
So it shocked me to see her in the dining room, wondering how she got there to begin with.
She saw me too, and she choked on her drink!, but she didn’t show it to anybody. I bet she had some questions like mine in her mind. Only the two of us knew what was going on.
After dinner, through the conversations, that’s when I came to realize that Taylor was a neighbor of my aunt, and she invited her to the family party just because she likes her. Taylor was supposed to spend the night with us and the next day on Christmas she’ll go to her family, so I had plenty of time to talk to her.
It was time for a movie and chatting, that’s when I approached her to hang out a bit again.
“So this is your family?” she asked
“Yeah, sure. How did you even get here? I thought you lived in a metropolis”
“oh yeah, we live next to your aunt and since she has no children, I end up helping her out with chores and everything. She loves me so much that she thought it would be a good idea if we came here together”
“wow so cool”
We continued talking and laughing, and then we watched stars together. That’s when I realized that she was so beautiful and kind too. She was very attentive to everything and, unlike me; she was an extrovert. That’s why I liked hanging out with her.
I have this habit of writing almost everything new and remarkable to me in my diaries, so here’s how I described her :
«At the first time I thought I was hallucinating or something but I realized I wasn’t.
Taylor was this light-dark brown-faced, with few blemishes which are fading away. She had few eyebrows and few lashes; had small lips and snowy white teeth. Taylor had these relatively small eyes, which were blue but not too much. She had beautiful, splendiferous Afro hair which is black. She had dimples down below the corners of the mouth. Had black lips, a relatively normal-sized neck, and she had arms with very few skin pores. Had an S-shaped Fuselage, with big well-shaped hips. She had beautiful legs with normal width, which was less hairy, and delicate feet with long toes, which made her look absolutely beautiful.
I was so obviously impressed with the Beauty of hers. Her Physiology was very Captivating she is the true meaning of beauty!»
After reviewing what I just memorized about her in that short time, I surprised myself! And I was like:
“Ooh boy, you really have a serious crush on her!”
The next question was "Are you going to shoot your shot, or you are going to shoot your shot?"
Though everyone was supposed to spend Christmas with their families, my dad convinced everyone that they were going to be with us on Christmas day and they both agreed. Christmas morning, everyone was excited but me. I don’t enjoy those gatherings where they’ll ask for a firstborn to deliver some speeches: it’s just I am not that social. Taylor and Cory were helping mum and others in the kitchen, I and Dad were finishing some decorations, While Brittney was playing with Billy. After a few moments, everything was ready, and the party began. As usual, it was my turn to deliver a speech, and I did well as it was a kinda family tradition.
I opened the door and entered the house directly, heading to my room, which is upstairs. Threw my bags on the table and I laid down on the bed while patting Billy. I took my diary and wrote “I asked her out, and she was completely Janus-faced! What should I do? I don’t want to lose a Lover and a Best friend” I closed the diary and pulled a comic from the shelf and started to read. That’s when Cory called me. It was lunchtime, and I went to eat. At the dining table, I kept hearing my telephone chiming over and over again. But we all know, it’s a family code that all kinds of gadgets are strictly prohibited an
“Hey, what’s wrong? Wait a minute, I know that look,” she said, looking at me. “um, I think I forgot something” “like a credit card?” She said, completely confident. “I think so” “Fear not, for miss T will save the day!” she said posing like a superhero! I sighed in relief and laughed “saying oh! No save me, save me!” mimicking someone in trouble, which made both of us crack a smile. Normally she was extroverted, unlike me, but by hanging out a lot, she ended up being infected by my secret introvercy. Like me, when she’s around unfamiliar company, you might think that she’s deaf or something. But she’s not exactly l
I found it difficult to sleep after what happened. Frankly, I expected her to say "I love you too" or "I'm not interested" (which she couldn't) but now that she thanked me, I was in a dilemma, not sure which side she was on. After one sleepless hour, I turned on the internet again and streamed some white noise music to help me to fall asleep. After like one minute still struggling with sleeping, my phone woke me up with a message. "Hey, I love you too. I have loved you since the beginning, but I was waiting for you to take the first step. Good night Davis"
Before going to bed, I took my diary and wrote down a quote from Lise Kiberwa's poetry collection called "Wind", Completely for no reason at all!: >>Like the wind, I don't want to belong anywhere. Just like the wind, I want to be felt but not seen. Like the wind, I want to both strengthen and extinguish the wildfire. Like the wind, I want to stress some poor old lady gently sweeping her compound by bringing all the dirt she's been removing. Although I want to be like the wind, my vulnerable heart needs a home.<< That night, we chatted about that day and how her adopted parents are my real parents. she was totally stunned but I can tell that she already knew ab
The next Friday, I watched over my sister and Taylor while my parents went to work. I also changed my names across all my social media platforms, from Dave Robinson to Davis Depp Jackson. My parents would come back in the evening, and we would watch animated movies together. Me, Dinah and mummy, we like animated movies, but Taylor and Daddy don’t. They just like hanging out with the family during movie time. Saturday, my parents invited all the family to my welcoming party, majority of them who didn’t even know me. I met my cousins, my uncles and my aunts; they told me that I had no Grandparents because they had died many years ago.
She drove me to the metropolis and after saying goodbyes she headed back home and I proceeded to the agency responsible for trainees. Because I was the top in my class, I became so popular on the board that I started to make money by working along with actual engineers. Operating engines, repairing hibernation pods, repairing and designing 3D printers, and all sorts of mechanical and technological development were my specialty, plus I had knowledge about programming and geography so I wasn’t treated like a trainee but a normal scientist. ASB had a mission to go to space on ISS in the next two months, so they thought that it would be a good idea if they added a program of
After not being able to identify what’s wrong with pumps physically, we ran the full diagnosis of the captain’s deck to see whether it was system glitches. Everything seemed normal, but the progress was stuck on 87%. That's when I told Tom that we can copy the system data to my drive to study them later. In the process, we managed to pass all restrictions by using a Magnetic fields generating device to override the systems because the normal procedures required Admin’s Authority, and it was against laws to have a copy of the project like that on your computer. &nbs
CORRY'S POVRegnum is a realm that's located between Earth, hell and heaven. It's like another world, but way more different than any celestial body. Our climate is very cold compared to that on earth where mortals live.It's always snowing on the Regnum, and there are no plants in the planet. Dwelt are the different creatures compared to humans. All People on Regnum, have superpowers. Among Our abilities are Shapeshifting, precognition, psychokinesis, teleportation, and Ability to live forever, unless you are killed by one of the loyal family.We possess the capability to communicate directly by psychic means or the sympathetic affection of one mind by the thoughts, feelings, or emotions of another at a distance, without communication through the
I don't know if I was still listening to what she was saying verbally, but one thing for sure, I was instead watching everything she said Visually! I could see her eating raw meat, with her fingers dripping blood while she licked them, yuck! That was disgusting. Inside my mind there was a loud audience, everyone giving their own suggestions about what I must do. I came to realize that all those nonsensical nightmares with Arachne-like women were actually true. That also explained the spidey Humanoid we saw lurking in pictures taken by the cameraman during the previous wedding proposal. After saying so, she stood up and walked toward me staring directly into my pupils, I could feel like staring directly into my soul. Even though I was afraid as heck, I resisted and let h
Mid-party, I also saw that parrot still hanging on the chandelier. That time I decided to ask mummy how she managed to be a fan of birds. “Hey mum, congratulations!” “oh thanks son. I’m the one supposed to be congratulating you” “no mum, I’m not referring to the marriage thingy” “What do you mean?” “I’m glad that you finally managed to get a parrot pet” “heck no, I own no birds. You know I’m allergic to their feathers right?” “Then what about that parrot on the chandelier?” “where? I see no parrots”
A week later, as we agreed with both of our parents, it was the day that we were going to visit them. A Vibrant Saturday, everything seems disoriented. I didn’t expect a busy weekend like that, actually, Saturdays were the quietest of the week because the majority of our neighbors were home, but then, it was the Loudest one! The machines were whirling everywhere, peeking through the Needle-sized hole on my Welding helmet, I saw a monkey delivering packages to our address! Walking cars honking, cows driving trucks at insane speed, I even saw a Lady with half of a human and another half of a spider! She seemed familiar but I was in a hurry to catch my flight which was already in the sky. Then I saw a large pair of Scissors cutting strings attached to my arms, legs, and head!“babe……Babe….. Davis?” a steady voice of Taylor called.
Six months later, It was my payday. It's a kind of Company routine that after a payday, almost all employees are given a week-off, then the Trainees or students in internships take over almost all of the work with few actual employees acting as supervisors. Well, it sounds crazy but that’s how we worked. Meanwhile, Taylor was unemployed but paid by the ministry of defense for some reasons I don’t know! Maybe it's compensation for doing experiments on an unwilling subject or something. ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ Although Taylor was Cold-blooded when it came to Romantic issues, I loved her in the way she was. She allowed me to love her and accepted what I was offering. Frankly, that was enough, all-in-all she was So beautiful. That time I was ready to risk it all (well, not that RISK
I spent the night without closing my eyes, watching over Corry, as she laid on the hospital bed, not talking. Her eyes were moving under her eyelids like when you’re dreaming, but she couldn’t move a muscle. I took my phone and read her a book. After a few minutes, her eyes stopped moving. I realized that she might be sleeping, so I stopped reading and laid down on the couch inside her bedroom. Before sleeping, I called Taylor. She told me that everything was okay, that she was coming to the hospital the next day. I also called my Parents (not the adopted ones) and it seemed like they did not have any idea of what was going on in the hospital. My mother told me that she was going to come to the hospital with Dina the day after. The night lasted fo
Sunday evening, the sun was fading away, illuminating the sky with it's beautiful Orange hue. Outside, Taylor and I were reading a book together, admiring the sky and breathing cooler air outside. Obviously, it was a beautiful evening and a nice moment to be, especially with a Partner. Everything seemed to be Normal, Until unexpected happened. My phone rang, and I picked it "Hello?... Hello… hello I can hear you," That was me trying to hear and figure out why Ms. Robinson, my adopted mother, was not speaking to me. After a short moment, about 40 seconds, I hung up and called her back. "hello?" I said "Hi Dave, it's me," answered my adopted sister Brittney. "aaawn! How are you, Babe?" I said smiling "I'm fine" she answered "Where is mommy?" I asked "at the hospital!" she said.
After that Survey, the next few days went downhill! Because we knew what makes each other feel loved, we tried to do it. In my perspective, it was an easy-going Experience because I already had that Romantic experience in me. Or rather compared to her!.Taylor tried all her best to take care of me and show me love in every possible way she could. One day she surprised me with an unexpected Gesture! It was Saturday, I was home because on weekends we don't work. She went to the store nearby to buy groceries and she bought me candy! Well, I'm too grown up to be eating candies, but the Audacity of her buying some candies for me made me fall for her surprise! That made me feel loved and happy for her.The next day I sent her an email, I called it "When love turns into addiction" which read:°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°
Coming back from the mission, I found out that Taylor was working with the National Defense force. They arranged training to train them so that they could hire every student from the third year, because there had been terrorist attacks on their base, and they ended up killing all Engineers in their laboratory. During their training, we had a fixed time for talking. In the morning before going to work I’d call her, and then in the evening after work. Everything followed a typical pattern until one day it all changed! One morning I called her as usual, and we
