I headed back to Natalie..
"what took you so long? "she asked me as soon as I got back to our table ..
"a guy just watched me change "

"what! Was he cute? "
Is she seriously  asking me that right know??
"shut up! "I chuckled.. "I didn't  even know  he was there .I did not even feel like anyone was watching me. "

"Do I know him? "
"I doubt because I've never seen  him before. "I replied.

"oh my Gosh,is he one of the new guys? "
"maybe, I mean who else would he be? The new janitor?"
"was he hot?"
"yeah,, he was so amazing"
"see what I was telling you about?"

"just because I think he is hot doesn't necessarily mean that I like him.I don't like his attitude "

"how would  you know? "she  asked me,.
I looked at her.. She read my mind.
"oh my God, did you talk to him? "

"yeah, and trust me,, it wasn't the best conversation. "
"what did he say? "
"please let's not talk about him."

" wow.. I can literally  feel something "
She wiggled her eyebrows.. Damn,, she always did that  when she was trying to prove a point...
And I hated that she was right..
There was something... And it was hate... I hated the way he was so blessed  in every other aspect, but not on the character ...

"shut up, let's leave.. Or we'll be late for class"

I had not even eaten anything, so I just decided to drink some passion  juice, that I had brought.
I did not have any appetite.

Nat had carried peanut butter and jelly sandwich and the peanut smell made me nauseous .
i was allergic to peanut but she loved it so much.
I'm a good friend so i just let her eat it anyway.

We left for class.
i had a home economics class.

i loved that class especially when it came to cooking.

Nat headed for English.
i got to home esc class
But the teacher was not in..
I sat at my usual seat.

I know I wasn't supposed to let it get to me,but did I really look that bad in red?
Seriously people had been staring at me ,I almost thought I had bird poop on my dress.

But I've checked it for sometime.

No stain and its not torn,like,not at all.
It doesn't even have creases.
Who was that guy anyway and what was wrong with him?
Let's assume he was high and when I see him again he'll be nicer .

Not that I care but.....whatever ..

I removed my phone from my bag and texted Nat
To Bestie::Hey,my lesson sucks .no teacher
From Bestie::Mine too,you know I hate school.Let's ditch
To Bestie::Meet me in the parking lot.

This is not the first time I'm  going to ditch school but its going to be the first time I'm ditching a home economics class.
.
But in my defense, there was no teacher .
So practically I missed nothing.
I met Natalie in the parking lot.

when I reached where he was,she looked at me from top all the way to my sneakers.
"Okay tell me, Do I really look this bad in red what's with all the staring?"

"You look amazing and if people have been staring its because you look so hot"
On you face janitor boy.

stupid highschool kid.
"Thanks."
"You should wear more dresses though, you've got pretty legs."
"Stop flattering me Nat."

"I'm serious  Kris,if I were a boy,I'd totally do you."
"Enough of all this,let's leave before someone notices." I said and opened the door to her car.

Yeah she drives.

I'm afraid of driving.
Actually I never even used to ride in a car.

I used to take my bike.
Every time I'm behind the wheel ,I feel like I won't make it,like I'm going to crash.
The feeling is strange.
I hate it.

I however can now get a ride in  Nat's car.
I got used to it.
I feel safe with my best friend.
I always trust that she won't hurt me.
And my dad too.

They always have my back.
She drove to my place.

My dad works till late in the evening. So we knew he wouldn't be home.

We had to finish watching the last episode of Katy Keene.
We reached the gate ,but before we could get out of the car, I noticed a Rolls Royce was parked right in front of the house next door.
I actually thought no one lived there since miss Padmore moved out.
"I think you guys are going to have neighbours." Nat said while locking the car as she followed me in

"I just hope they are good neighbours"
"They have a Rolls Royce,what else could you ask for?"

"Nat I said good neighbours, not rich neighbours."

"It somehow sounds the same."

"It doesn't,and you seriously had to ditch an English class." I joked and she laughed with me.
She stopped laughing an looked at me as if she had an Idea .

"So why don't we take some of your famous cupcakes next door."

"I am not doing that.What am I?a 40 year old who wants to beg her neighbours to join a bookclub?"

"Come on,don't be silly,its just a good gesture .it will be our chance to meet them and snoop around a little."

She's the most curious person I know..
"What are you thinking about Kristen,start baking." She insisted.

"We were supposed to watch Katy Keene and our new neighbours will probably wonder why we aren't in school."
"Good point." She said
"See why you need in your life?I help you reason."

"Oh stop it."
"At 3:00 we are baking that cake." She said.
"But Nat,you don't know how to bake"
"You're right, I don't.

At 3:00,you are baking that cake."
