The next Monday was Ann’s usually meeting with Rex for their tutoring session and she couldn’t help dressing up beautifully. She was dressed in a blue skinny jeans, a white crop top and white old sneakers with her backpack securely behind her. Her face was bare, she just used her normal serum and sunscreen with a touch of lipgloss. After waiting for Ann for almost thirty minutes was making him restless, patience wasn’t his greatest virtue. She was usually the early one but currently it was pass their usual meeting time, he was beyond frustrated and ready to leave at any time but taking one last glance at the walking path, he saw her walking in a hurry from the distance. Taking in a deep breathe, he relaxed back into his seat taking his phone out and pretending not to be waiting for her anxiously just a few seconds ago. After a few more minutes of waiting impatiently and playing games on his phone absent minded, he heard the seat beside him pulled back and someone seating down with hea

The hallway was packed with students ready to start their daily activities. Some were morning people who were very energetic this morning whilst some were obviously not with hard look and frown on their faces.“Hey! Hey you, stop!”, Judith was stopped by the nervous looking Rex looking amongst the crowd as if looking for something or someone, he stopped her at the entrance of the campus with a tag on her school bag. She stopped mid-way and turn to have a look at her stopper. Noticing Rex, she discreetly fixed her appearance and turned to him with the sweetest smile she could master. “Hi Rex.....”, she stood there smiling and twirling her hair with her fingers whilst jumping from one heel to the other. She was anxiously waiting for Rex to educate her on the reason he stop her at the gate.Rex nervously looked around and cleared his throat loudly to get rid of his frustration.“Have you seen Adorabele lately? I can’t seem to find her anywhere, like she vanished from the surface of the w

It was a mystery for Ann how she got home that faithful day after the kiss, she knew she had been running and wasn’t thinking straight but the next thing she knew was she was at the door of her apartment and was already unlocking the door.When she finally unlocked the door and entered her apartment, she slide slowly on the floor and that was when the tears started to flow as a water fall unto her clothes and thereby wetting it completely. She felt used and disgusted with herself. She couldn’t believe she let that happen, she couldn’t believe she let him take her first kiss the way he did. She was greatly disappointed in herself and was beating herself up because she should have known where he was going to with all those g****e eyes, flirty gestures and how he was ready to get her food and anything she wanted when they were together. She knew he wanted something else besides the tutoring, she knew it but instead of being alert like she was in the past, she craved in and got closer to h

Ann was so engrossed in the book she was reading that it took a lot on knocking on the door to get her attention. She jumped up slightly in startle and made her way to the door. Thinking it was Judith coming to check up on her, she walked to the door with a teasing smirk on her innocent face.“ Jud in my paradise? This has never happen before! Judith doesn’t usually come and check up on me, I wonder what changed this time around that made her come here or she’s here because of an emergency?”, she thought to herself.Dressed in only lounge wear, she burst open the door in curiosity, by the look of things, it seems the person have been knocking for a while now,”Judith you don’t you have a key to this place? Why….?”, she stood frozen on the ground and her mouth gaped open immediately she identified the knocker. Words failed her as she stood rooted in the ground staring at the unexpected handsome man in front of her. She can’t remember how many times she had dreams about him nor how many

Waking up in the morning, Ann had the brightest smile on her face. The previous night was amazing, it was all she imagined her first time to be and more.

His side of the bed was cold and empty, she looked around and their clothes scattered on the floor last night was reduced to hers alone.

Go home, we will talk later and you’d tell me everything. This isn’t me asking, this is me commanding, I want to know everything. This has been going on for far too long..... shoo shoo go away.” He chased her away that hot afternoon.She smiled at the fond memory, bored at home and getting emotional because of the fla
