(Theo's Sister)

The quiz is few weeks away and I need to prepare.
My books were piled on my reading table, Six large textbook. My goal was to read at least 100 pages of each textbook, daily.
It's midnight already and I'm yet to start with the first textbook.
Just when I opened the first page, I heard a noise outside my window.
My heart skipped a beat.
I stared at the window. It was dark aside so it's almost impossible to see.
I ignored the noise and started reading. After five minutes, I heard the noise again.
This time it was like a knock on my glass.
Fear gripped me.
I hurried to my wardrobe and quietly brought the gun Theo gave me.
I pointed my torch at the window and I could see a man on mask, with his face pressed to my glass. I let out a terrified scream.
And then the glass opened and the man or boy jumped into my room.
Just when I was about pulling the trigger, he unmasked himself.
It was Smith.
He grinned, "Sorry I scared you".
I gave him a terrified look, then said "What are you doing here?"
He sat on my bed and smiled, "I came to see you."
I said in a serious and stern voice "Leave my house now or I'll call..."
"Theo?" He asked.
I sighed. "I was about saying, *the Cops* but I wouldn't mind calling my brother if you don't leave now"
He stood up and walked slowly to me, he wore a hurt expression in his face.
With a voice which could melt any girls' heart he asked me.
"Why do you want me to leave" His face was few inches from mine.
I could feel his breath on my face.
I said nothing.
"Do you hate me?"
I bit my tongue and tried not to answer.
"Tell me, and I promise If you say yes, I'll never disturb you again"
"I don't hate you. But I don't want a relationship with you" I said matter-of-fact.
He frowned for a moment and walked away from me.
He sat on my bed and stare straight at me.
"We could be friends at least." He said.
I hesitated, "my brother don't approve friendship"
"I know that...we could be secret friends. I can come here every night
and we could meet at secret places like the school library."
