young love

Chapter twenty two

Brian's POV
It's been two weeks since I came back to school after my short visit home to see my girlfriend Anna.No one else apart from my nanny Anna's mum and grandma know about our relationship. So far, everything is going well for me because am happy and am healing from my previous relationship.

I don't know when I'll inform my parents about Anna, they have met her before and I noticed they didn't like her.

The way my mum glared at Anna, I knew then that she detests her.My dad on the other hand, pretended to like her.But I don't blame them at all,my grandparents did a bad job in their upbringing.Both of them came from rich families and from what I heard their marriage was arranged to maintain their family businesses at the top.

Am glad we're in the 21st century where marriages are no longer arranged.Besides I wouldn't let my parents arrange a bride for me never, that's why am keeping my relationship a secret for them for now.

It's only a week till I get to see the love of my life again. I can't wait to see the shock on her face when she sees me in the same school as hers.

************************************
Am so excited right now, today is that day Anna is joining campus. I just want to find out the hostel she will be staying in. I thought of letting her come stay with me in my house but I remembered us agreeing to take things slow.Believe,I wouldn't control myself if I bring her to my house.

It's feels like have known Anna,all my life but they are things I still need to know.like who's Anna's dad,if he is alive or dead.She has never spoken about her dad and that's why I'm scared of bring that topic up because it may trigger sad memories or she may hate me for prying alot.So,I just want to give her time so she would trust me enough to talk to me about everything.

I also want to come clean about my past so she wouldn't have to find it from someone else. I mean,am not greatful about the things I did before. I want to tell her everything but I don't know how and when.Am scared she may hate me or leave me and I don't want that.

For now I'll focus on school then I find the right time to tell her.Things are great at the moment and I don't want to ruin anything.

The only problem I have now is Mark, this fool has been disturbing my peace with phone calls since I moved out of the hostel.He has been texting and calling every time, even when I ignore him he doesn't give up.He wants us to talk and I don't have his time.He should be greatful am ignoring him because when I meet up with him, I will punch him hard on the face again until he looses other set of teeth for the second time.

Meanwhile,am in my house studying and doing my assignments as I wait for noon to kick in so I would rush to campus to search for Anna.Today is Friday and it's the day she's admitted to Golden bridge university. I don't know how she will react upon seeing me,I hope she doesn't get mad. I wanted to surprise her one of this days and show up on her hostel but then again I saw it best she find out soon.Besides, I remembered Anna isn't good at making friends and I also don't want her to fall for the wrong people.

When I spoke to her earlier she sounded scared about campus because she is afraid she will be bullied.And I don't want Anna to be scared or worried about anything. I hope she gets a good roommate or even better stay by herself so she would have her own privacy because I noticed she likes that just like me.

I plan on giving her short tour in and around campus when she settles first in her hostel so that she wouldn't have a problem of locating places before Monday because it's always a busy day for everyone.

Well,it's twenty minutes past twelve noon,am currently rushing out of my house for my car to get to campus on time before I miss out on Anna.I know how the administration block would be busier. I just hope Anna is already in the campus premises so she would have humble time for her admission.Because, the all process of admission feels like a student joining highschool due to harassments from the deans and lectures who want to get ahead of time, when they are checking if all the necessary requirements needed are brought.

I packed my car at the packing lot few metres from the administration block.It wasn't busier as I thought, seemed like few people had arrived because about ten cars were packed at the packing lot. I was lucky to find a spot where I would be able to spot Anna her mum or her grandma from my car. I lowered the window of my car so I would spot them well.

Anna told me they would use the car her mother had rented for them,it would be much easier for them than public transport. I wish I could pick them up with my own car but that would raise suspicion because they don't have any idea that I am in the same university Anna is joining today.

Right now am hoping they would not be angry at me when they find out am in the same university and I didn't tell them earlier.

I have stayed inside my car for about thirty minutes but I haven't seen them yet. It's only ten minutes to 1:00pm and the campus has started getting busier because of new students and their families getting in.I badly want to call Anna and know where she is now but she said she would call me when she is through with admission.

I checked my phone for any call from Anna but there was none. I started getting worried for her.Fear crept inside me and bad thoughts clouded my mind, that's when I decided to call her myself. Just as I was dialing her number she called. I was relieved and I picked up the call immediately to hear her out.

I spoke with Anna for about thirty minutes  asking her alot of questions which am glad she responded to all of them,then we decided to end the call so we would talk later. I was glad she was able to get here on time,I bet Melissa had a hand in this.She is really a time keeper.From what Anna told me,is that her admission was easier because she was among the students picked out for scholarship program.The only thing she had to do was show up to meet with the Senior dean in the campus to help her and the others fill some documents for admission.

She didn't inform me immediately because her phone battery had died. Am glad she found one of the best hostels to stay in,I knew immediately when she told me her hostel number because I used to visit Jedidah around there when she and I dated. Anna also told me her roommate is a quiet person and she's glad because everyone gets to mind their own business.

I have decided to go back home and let Anna rest because she says she's tired.let me just go and think of how I will surprise her tomorrow.
