When The Stars Shines, You Would Be Mine

Chapter 2❤❄

★★★

Finally! The bell rings to signal the end of this boring class. I turned my back, some of my classmates were asleep, our History  teacher  saw this but he just didn't say anything, because he knows at the end of the day. They still pass the exams, hehe, he never knows how we do that though. Winks.

Micheal, my best friend walks over to my desk, his brown comb tucked in his full hair. "Hey bro, how far na?" We exchanged handshakes, seems like a ritual nowadays.

"I'm good. I am just tired. I wanted to sleep off there. Next time, I'd buy a bubble gum to keep me active to prevent falling asleep in Mr Anthony's class." I tell him.

He clicks his tongue, "Guy, you have gotten it. He was just talking and i was just wondering who exactly he was talking to, definitely not to us, half of the class were asleep and the other half were just in a trance.

I agreed on that. I packed my books that were under my desks into my bag and we went out of the class, strolling around the corridor.

Michelle and Ronke waved at us, and we went to meet them. Michelle was another one of my closest friends, we were also in the same class. I hugged her, she tapped my back, "God, Den, you are squeezing me!"  I laughed lightly and released her from my bear hug.

"What happened on friday guys, I didn't come to school, I just heard Henry and some other students talking about the "thing"  that happened on Friday. Anytime i asked what happened or what they were talking about, they just laughed and they asked me to ask Denzel." Ronke faced me and waved her hands.

Friday....What happened on friday? Oh yeah. I was roasted by Arabella. She resumed the first session with us. We haven't really had a conversation, if you counte just exchanged notes and greetings, but i liked her,and she was  really pretty, I mean the girl was really beautiful.
So, last week friday, I tried my luck, I asked her out in front of the whole class. I don't know what was going through my fucking mind, I have been watching too much of these high school love shit. Asking their crush out, putting posters with the words "Would you go out with me"

She rolled her eyes and looked at me, straight in the eye, "No, I don't want to to go out with you. Leave me alone" she said with a flat tone. I was hurt, I was just like okayyy, okay, okay, okayyy.

I just made our relationship, if there was even any "ship" to begin with an awkward vibe.

I told Ronke and the rest the full gist, they all laughed as well as they did last week. "Dude, I don't even know what to say apart from Emotional Damage!" Michael tapped my back. I pushed his hands off my back.

"There are other fishes in the sea my bro. Just take your rod and start fishing, you would catch a lot, I can assure you man" Micheal says, still tappping my back.

"Fuck off bro" I shoke his hand away from my back "It's okay. Let's not bring back those memories. Okay guys?

"Okay!" They all ushered.

                ~♥~

The whole day went by so fast, i switched on the TV to find any available channels to watch, my sister flopped on the couch besides me, a bag of potato chips in her hands. "Did mom tell you to open that?" I asked her, pointing at the bag of  chips she was eating.

She just shrugged and continued eating, rolling her eyes. "Yes she did, stop being such an annoying brother!" She growled in a very un-lady like manner

"Oh, I am annoying? Or you are annoying? Just shut up, okay, i'm trying to watch something here." I locate my phone, unlocked it using my thumb.

I was tired, more than usual. I tap on messages, there was a boy in my class who I've seen once or twice talking to Arabella and she laughed when she was around him, maybe if i chatted him up, he might give me her number.

Did I seem really desperate?
That's a rhetorical question, I know I am desperate. Sighs. Here goes nothing.

I typed in a text.

- Dude, can you send me Arabella number?

He replied, - Sure thing my gee. here, 0819827184.

- Thanks ;)

I quickly added her, and texted her on WhatsApp. Goody, she was online.

She is typing....

A-  Yeah....heyyy?        

D-  Umm, Evening. It's Denzel.

A-  Ohh, how are you?  

D- I'm good, as usual

A- That's good to know

D- Yeah, it is, not all people are really doing all great. Yk

A- I see...🙂

D- Come on, don't be sarcastic

A- I'm not,tch.

D- Umm, So... i'm really sorry if i said something bad or hurtful to you last week

A- Umm. Okay, you didn't hurt my feelings by the way

D- Oh really?, ok, we cool then?

A- Yes, we are :) .
