Incase you're wondering, the kiss didn't do shit. I still passed out; moral of the story, don't believe everything you watch on TV, yes i'm talking about that awesome Tv series Teen Wolf and also not every panic attack patient is the same now moving on

"why did you kiss me?" as you can see I am feeling somewhat better, after my attack I passed out, I got better though but I was feeling too weak so I fell asleep and when I awoke it was late and the man that caused the attack in the first place is still here not that I wanted him to go anyway

"because I thought it would help"

"did it though?"

"no"

"you just took advantage of my vulnerability"

"i did not, i actually thought it would help"

"i do not believe you" i believe him, i actually do it's just fun to poke him a little

"i want to kiss you every time i see you but not without your consent, this one time i did it because i thought it would help that is why i am taking my time to explain this to you else i'll leave you to believe what you want" i will not lie i would like to kiss him again, intentionally this time. it's been a while i had urge to do any of this with anyone so i would be lying if i said i didn't want to kiss him but the problem is... i do not want to hurt him

"why did you stay over" i shoot another question

"because I had to I didn't want to leave you alone"

"why didn't you call Ayo to come over I'm sure you have his number" i'm glad he is here in Ayo's stead

"I did after you passed out, he came but I volunteered to stay and watch you" i think i hit my head when i passed out because thoughts of hm staying with me is looking yummier by the minute

"I don't need watching you can leave" stay i thought

"I can't do that" he refuses and i lick my lips to contain my smile

"and why not" stay with me i thought again but my poker face could win an award

"because I just can't"

"get out of my house Mr. man" why is my mouth vomiting things i do not mean!

"I'm tired and it's late, I prepared pasta if you're hungry" his nonchalance towards my words is irking but i like that he wants to stay

"leave. My. House" if you leave my thoughts will consume me, i can't keep them at bay alone anymore

"seems you aren't hungry, I'm going to bed goodnight, wake me if you need anything" he took a pillow and went to the couch in my bedroom and lay down

"eiss, Oga! Leave my house" he didn't even turn to face me

"I love you too, goodnight baby girl" I smile. Why the fuck am I smiling now i'm sure that i hit my head when i passed out

"you'll leave tomorrow morning" I say and I went to bed

"Ala" he calls

"what?"

"if you ever need someone to talk to, I'm here I'll always be here for you" I smile to myself and think one day, one day i'll bare myself to you

"I did not beg you" I say but I'm joking. It's nice to hear someone say that to you

"I mean what I said" it is nice to hear someone say it to you and mean it

"don't disturb me I'm trying to sleep" thank you for staying Ogochukwu

"you need deliverance" he says but I can hear him chuckle and it makes me giddy for reasons unknown to me

"you'll soon sleep outside" I respond

"sorry oh landlady"

"better"

"I love you Ala" that was how I slept with a smile on my face for reasons my brain hadn't communicated yet to me

MORNING

DAY 31

I woke up stretching and cracking the bones in my body like a crazy person, I fumbled for my phone just to hear a voice ask

"what are you looking for?" my popped open as I froze who the fuck is that? I thought to myself. I slowly move my head to the direction the voice came from and I saw Ogochukwu. Ogochukwu slept here? I ask myself scanning my memory

"I slept here, your couch is very uncomfortable I had to move to the floor" he said and just then it clicked, he slept here. I sigh with contentement

"how did you know I was confused?"

"it was boldly written on your face"

"okay, what is the time?"

"say please"

"please"

"past 10 am"

"what! And you let me sleep!? I am so late, Ayo will kill me and the damn exhibition is fucking next week" I rolled out of bed which made me fall on my ass like a bag of garri, I didn't care though I stood up and running to my closet looking for what to wear to work while I keep mumbling and cursing that man sitting on the couch drinking whatever it Is he is drinking hoping he would choke on it... he didn't

"Ala" he calls calmly

"what is it?" I reply in haste

"Ayo called said you can work from home today" he smiles. I blink once, twice then three times

"and you allowed me grumble and almost scatter my closet like an old mad person!" this boy is still smiling at me

"it was quite a sight" he smiles more. Choke on your spit please

"get out of my house" I tell him but he ignores me and looks at his phone

"Ayo told me you like to sleep in a lot so I left pasta in the microwave for you but I didn't make coffee for you, do that yourself" he stands up "if you need me I'll be in the parlour – he moves to the door but stops – "

"did you forget something honourable house owner?" I dip my question in sarcasm

"no, just wanted to tell you that you fart quite a lot in your sleep, freshen up we have somewhere to be" with that he leaves the room and I am stuck looking at the door he closed clothed with the garment of embarrassment

"that asshole" was all I could say
