What should I call this? Sunday update or Halloween update?
David's POV
Dealing with Kiki's sickness has been taking a toll on me.
I've been more cranky and snappy these days.
I feel like a girl on her period
I barely managed to write the first test with my sanity.
The doctor had told us that her sickness is starting to chew on her organs or something like that
"What's up bro" Liam tapped my shoulder as he got into the car.
I tried to tell Mum to let me stay with Kiki in the hospital but she declined. So presently, I'm on my way to school.
I shrugged his arm off and brought out my phone.
There was basically nothing to do on it but I just wanted to look busy so Liam wouldn't disturb.
And it worked
We got to school earlier than expected. As I got ready to alight, Liam stopped me.
"By the way David, Tamilore is a fun girl to hang out with. It's so cool we're buddies right now" He said and got out of the car.
I sat rooted on the same spot.
His words were booting in my head.
I ran out of the car and hurried to class to search for him but he wasn't there.
It was like he's hiding.
I could still remember his exact words of 2 years back like it was five minutes ago.
"watch your back especially your little crush, lover boy"
I can't let him get to Tamilore.
Ever!
Farayola's POV ( Temilade's Best friend)
I smiled nervously as Liam got nearer to me.
I couldn't understand my strange reactions to him these days
"Hey pretty" he flirted
"Hi Liam" I replied
"Come on, don't I deserve a compliment back at least" he joked
I broke our eye contact and looked away shyly
What on earth? I am not the shy type..
"Soo how was your weekend?" He asked
"Pretty stressful. I had to study hard so that I can improve in my grades. I'm having a little trouble with Technical Drawing and I really need it for the course I want to study. I can't have a client coming up to me to design a structure of their house and I'm drawing the toilet like a size of a pickle. Who would even use it, it won't contain the size of a human. Mehn I'm doomed. I can't even draw a well structured house what of if I'm told to design the structure of a school or an office. Jeez I don't want to be a laughing stock to my enemies especially Lisa. You might not know her. She's my imaginary enemy. I kind of love to imagine my future in my head and I'm sure I'll have an enemy in the future most specifically my work place and..." I paused and widened my eyes in shock and embarrassment when I realized I've been talking for too long.
I looked up to find Liam with neutral face just a little smirk which was barely noticeable and his eyes dancing with amusement.
I lowered my head in embarrassment but I felt a finger below my chin which lifted my head up.
