"Coffee"

Chapter 4

I put on my jeans rolling off the bed as I ran late for my first class of the semester. I picked up my bag and ran out the door grabbing a granola bar. "Hey girl"
I saw Isabella waving across the hall. "I will catch you later I'm so sorry I have 5 minutes to get to it, text you later?" I said as I tied my laces
"For sure and please do something about your hair" she pointed at my nest. I gave her a thumbs up and ran down the stairs. "Why didn't I just use the elevator" I looked at my watch and ran across the street. Good thing I don't live too far from campus. I ran across the sidewalk bumping into everyone I could and stood in front of the campus. I walked towards the west wing and found my class, good thing I watched all the demo videos without those I would be a running fool right now. Right before the last second I sat in the very corner of the classroom. I am not the shy type but for the first day I think I ought to stay as an introvert. A mid 40 with white hair lady walked in carrying a brief case. I might as well pretend I'm in how to get away with murder. Ms Keating is that you? Focus on the study today Del if you get questioned don't want to look like a clown. "You all can call me Ms John" feels like an English teacher talks like a math teacher and she is a law professor. "Any questions for me?" She asked with a deep hoarse voice. She wouldn't be hearing from me a lot. "Let's start with some reviews today" she gave a wicked old smile before eyeing everyone up and down. Please be my lucky day. "Delilah Collins?" Someone shoot me right now.
"Yes?"
"Why did you choose this school?" That's not a review question. I looked at her confused and smiled with her confidently "I think it can give me the intellectual life I dream of"
"What is that becoming an international lawyer? Or travelling towards deeper connections into law"
"I made a deep connection with law not for the rules or the regulations it set a goal in my heart to at least help one or two people"
"Why not some community work?" Is this an interview?
"I think I can do more but with a major backbone called loyalty. Be loyal to your passion works like a charm"  she narrowed her eyes smirking at me and moved on to the front bench
"How about you what do you think?" She pointed at the front bench to a boy with glasses on. He stood up and continued with his explanation.
"How's class so far?" I picked up my phone to check a text from Ade
"More like an interview"
"Waiting for details :)"

I walked out of class and searched up the nearest cafe. "I need coffee"  I whined as I started walking to the cafe "also a car". I looked at the clouds clearing up as the sun shone bright in my eyes, I pulled my hair up in a bun sweating as I walked down the street, I grabbed my phone and looked at the Lock Screen. It was of Lilo and Stitch in a supermarket. He was twirling her around in the middle of the market and laughing his head off as she closed her eyes. Makes me wonder of so many scenarios. How does it feel to be loved? Will he accept me for me? Will our love ever change? What if I'm not pretty enough or good enough? Will I be twirled in the middle of the markets? Held in front of everyone owning me like his trophy? Will he have this obsessive love for me or someone he can have when he is bored? Will I be his time pass or his forever love? Will I ever find love? I don't need to look for it do I? So many questions and non answered. An instant thought popped up as I answered my own questions. Who was it last night? It couldn't be him. He doesn't even know where I live it can't be. I sighed walking to the cafe as I looked at the colourful cupcakes and macrons in front of me. I smiled at the thought of Ade munching on them all she is obsessed with them. I walked to the counter and smiled at the waiter "Hey what's the best drink you got here" he nodded and picked up a cup "I got you"  I moved aside while he got my drink ready and looked around at the decor of the place. It was soft, coloured in baby blue. "Are you new around here?" I nodded at the the guy in the green shirt. "You can call this one Kawaii" he smiled at it "what does that mean?"
"It's a cute bubbly pink drink"
"Like Starbucks?"
"Only better" he winked at me as another guy came in from the corner looking exactly like the one in front of me. "Twins?" I asked and he nodded
"I am Alex and this is Leo we own this little cafe and you're Delilah" I looked at him confused and he pointed at my cup and I nodded.
"It was nice meeting you both maybe I'll see you around soon?"
"For sure let us know if we can help you move around"
"I will thank you and this is awesome" I pointed at my drink as I sipped it
"Check out my fancy drink, Kawaii ;)" I snapped a picture of my drink and send it to Ade moving forward towards the rest of the day.
