CHAPTER 6
STILL TEARS
ZARA's POV
Who else thinks that Early morning Cappuccinos is just the right way to start a good day, it's just so tasty.
I was in the Kitchen fiddling with the tea cup when the door bell rang out Continuously
Ding and Ding!it cried out
"I'm not getting it" I and Vanessa said at the same time as we both let out a chuckle which turned into a full blown laughter.
I love having Vanessa around, she makes everything fun. She's been sleeping over at mines for sometime now
"Hey Zee, I got the door the last time so you do it" she yelled from the sitting room
"Goshhhh , Vanessa you are just some feet away from the door" I said with a smile as she gawked at me with a broad smile, obviously not ready to move
"Ok I'd get the door" I said as I walked towards the Living room
Oh now I get it, Vanessa was pinned to the screen by her favorite show "Judge Judy" no wonder! Once that show is on, Everything else doesn't matter to Vanessa. I thought to myself as I let out a chuckle
On reaching the door, I took a peek through the door hole to check who it was, but no one was there
I gripped the door knob towards the left, on opening the door, I saw Bouquet of rose flowers
"Ishhhhhh....Not again" I said to myself as I let out a sigh.
I picked up the Bouquet and shut the door
"Hmmm.....Zee .this is the sixth time you are getting a flower this week" Vanessa said, her eye still glued to the O-LED Screen.
"Nawaooh, Me I'm tired ooh, no be flowers I dey chop now" I said jokingly
"Does it say who it's from this time" She asked
I'm beginning to get the creeps, each bouquet I found at my doorstep came with a love note. Now the question is From Who?. The note doesn't state who it's from, Anonymous indeed.
"Nope it has no name on it, Just a note as usual" I replied
"Ah Oya now, what are you waiting for? Read it out na, Loud and Clear ooh" Vanessa said as she gave me an intense look as a smile ran through her face.
Her eyes away from the screen, Hmmm! That's a First
"Babes this stuff is creeping me out oh, I keep getting flowers from an anonymous someone isn't it strange" I asked, my voice obviously tensed
"Ahah Babe, isn't it obvious yet?" Vanessa asked
"Obvious? What's Obvious" I replied
"Hmmm...." She let out a sigh
"Omo you have a secret admirer" She said as she with a slight chuckle, her upper thirty two visible.
"Secret Admirer ko!, it's not only secret ooh, open is there too" I said with sarcasm as Vanessa burst into laughter
"Madam, read the note na...oya if you don't want to read give it to me" She said as she walked towards me
"You know this guy seems to be a poet, his notes are just too romantic, Just the kind of guy I need I my life right now" She continued jokingly
"Omo! You can have him for all I care" I said with a funny tone as I handed her the note
"Mhmm...Hmm" She cleared her throat
