This Is It.

Chapter 11

Bianca

The past few days were so hard on me. Ms Moreau was literally ignoring me every single time and made it obvious. I'm just glad that the holidays are coming through and I can just rest. This was my last day at work.

While I was busy cleaning after myself. I passed by Ms Moreau's office and kind of eavesdropped on a conversation she had with Leesah.

I was a bit jealous ofcourse that she could talk to her with treating her the way she does me. My head was circling around the fact the she came all the way to the art studio when they could have just met at the dance studio. While I was still lost in my thoughts, they busted me standing right at the door.

"Ah, eavesdropping now are we," Leesah chuckled. "Actually no. I was just about to knock," I said as if it was the most flawless thing ever.

In a way, I was hoping for the 'dragon' to say something but she didn't. She didn't even look my way. I made a lousy excuse to leave and thankfully, they bought it. Everything was fine until I heard them talk about me whilst making their way to the reception.

"That girl is just a lot man. I don't know what she wants from me."

"What do you mean?"

"I don't know. I just think a lot about..you know, when I'm with her."

"Ah, I see. Seems like you need a stress relief. Tonight. Don't be late," Leesah said and blinked at her as she left.

I actually thought she was not going to reciprocate but I was wrong. She smirked at her and licked her lips. I looked around the studio just to see if people actually saw what I saw but everyone was just minding their business. At that time I didn't know how I felt. Whether I wanted to find out what she meant by her saying she, thinks about something when I'm around or whether she is romantically involved with Leesah.

"You're in your head a lot today intoni[ what is it]? Siya asked. "Me? What? I'm just waiting for the boss. She's still showing her friend out," i said emphasizing the word 'friend.'

"Oooh I know what this is," she snickered making goofy expressions. "You are jealous. I can smell it. I laughed so hard after she said that but i still kept her poker face. "I'm not. Wft! I was just saying what I saw. How long have they been dating for anyway," I stammered scratching my leg.

"See! See! I knew it. Why would you think they're dating? Because you're-,

"Okay back at it again I see. Gossiping." Speak of the devil. "Actually no boss Bianca here wanted to know how long you have been in a rela-" I quickly put my hand over her mouth so tight that it hurt. Ms Moreau was just keeping her usual stoic expression but it was clear that she wanted to know more.

"In a relationship with who Bianca?" She asked and I swear I wanted to faint. "Yes. With who? Are you in a relationship?" The words just came running out of my mouth before I could even think about an answer. I removed my hand from Siya'a mouth and covered mine instead.

After realizing what just happened I went to the painting room in a rush. I needed something to clear my mind. I started painting. Luckily no one interrupted me until I had to clean up and put everything in place.

I heard the door open and then close behind me. Judging by the silence, I knew that she was in the room with me. I carried on putting stuff away and only stopped for a short moment when I heard her talk.
