Maria's POV
I'm glad you are over him, i have never seen you cry like that. Keisha said. To be honest i don't know what really made me cry, i can't tell whether it was my falling grades or the fact tristan was graduating. I said. Yeah, those two clashed and if i didn't know you better, i would have said you used your falling grades as a guise but i know you hate failing. Keisha said. Well, i can say I'm okay now and i am just gonna focus on my studies, next year we would be seniors too. I said. Yeah, i really can't wait to leave high school. Keisha said. Yeah, Me too. Do you still have problems figuring out your Major? Keisha asked. Well, yes but at least i have options now so i am keeping them open. I said. Hmmn... that's nice. Keisha said. Hi Girls, Jasmine a classmate of mine greeted. Hi, we chorused. Have you ever spoken to her? Keisha asked. Who? I asked. Jasmine, i mean i don't think i have ever seen the both of you talk. She said. Nah, not really, i don't like her. I said. Why? She asked. You know what's funny, i don't know, maybe because she joined us in sophomore year or because she had a cousin in this school that i didn't like. I said. Typical Maria, you like nobody. Keisha said. And what is that suppose to mean. I like you and few others. I defended myself. You learned to like us, I'm sure you'll learn to like Jasmine too because she is a sweet girl although i think she is very Naive. Keish said. Maybe, i want to take a Nap now, I'll talk to you later, i said and went to sleep.

So he came back, unbelievable, some said he came with his younger brother. I wonder how Maria would react. I kept hearing them mumble in my sleep. What is this about and why can't i have a peaceful Nap. I said. I'm sure you would want to hear this, i mean you won't even believe. Keisha Said. What is it? I asked. Eric is back. She said. Eric? Who is Eric? I asked. Eric your Nemesis, the one you hated his guts in Freshman year. Keisha said. He is back, to do what, did he forget his freshman result in school? I asked Sarcastically. He he... Very funny, he is joining us and he is here with his little brother. She said. And how did you get this piece of information? I asked. Jasmine saw him because the principal asked her to guide him. Harley said. But Jasmine doesn't know Eric. I said. The principal told her about him. Harley said. Hmmn... Whatever, pls y'all should tone it down, i really need to sleep. I said. I couldn't sleep back, i mean how could i, what is he doing here again. The thought of him being my classmate is annoying as i think about it. Well, I'm nt Maria of freshman year and I'll just be on my own and hope to never cross his path, not like we are even in the same department. I said myself.
I still can believe he came back. Keisha said to me. Aren't you going to say anything, in fact you look unpuzzled about the whole thing. What do you want me to say? And how should i look, should i look disrupted because i don't like him and he came back, really i don't care. I said. Woah... You really are grown. Keisha said. You can say that again, i mean I'm not the freshman Maria, next year I'll be a senior so it will be a shame if nothing has changed about me since freshman year. I said. And that is so true. Keisha said. Please add more ketchup for me, I'm obsessed. Keisha said to the chef. Sure the chef replied and added more. What about you? More ketchup? She asked. Nah, I'm good. Thank you. I said. Woah.... Isn't that him, harley who was sitting at the table with keisha and i said. He looks nothing like freshman year, he is so hot, i swear i can see his abs through his shirt. Keisha said. See that beards, so neatly shaved, omg... he is so handsome and see how cute his brother is too. I guess it runs through their vien. Harley said. Please can you guys stop drooling over him, he is just plain. I said. Plain.... Maria Raquel Downs, you didn't just say a guy as fine like that is plain. Keisha said. Why did you have to call out my full name because i said you are exaggerating his looks ? I asked. He isn't just plain, he is hot, sexy, handsome, fine...and all the words used to describe a mini god i can't find. Mini god.... Come on, you know we have a meeting to catch up with so eat fast and stop admiring him. I said. Really??? I feel like someone is jealous. Keisha said. Jealous.... Why should i be jealous? You are drooling over someone we knew is a troublesome prick in freshman year and you think I'll be jealous of that? I said. Well, i see all the "I'm not the freshman Maria" talk was just for a show. You still hate him. Keisha said. I don't hate him. I just don't think he is someone you should be drooling over, come on keisha, you are way too beautiful for that. I said. Whatever.... She said. I'm done eating. We need to be hurry up or we would be late. I said. I'm done too, let's go. Keisha said.
Hey Gina. I greeted. Hey Ria, Hey keish, she greeted us. Welcome y'all. I surfed through the internet and i was able to gather few questions and i think they are good, we just need to adjust and make some amends and we would present it to the rest of the team, what about you Gina? Keish asked. I also did some research and this is my list of questions, she said giving it to Keish. What about you Maria. This are mine, i said handing it over to her. Good job guys. Let's review it now, let's start with Gina's. Keish said. We spent an hour fifteen minutes on review and we were able to agree on the good ones and compiled them into one. Good job guys, I'm so proud of y'all. Keish said. Thank you. Gina and i said. I think that is all, We should all leave for bed now. Keisha said. Good night. Gina said. Good night. Keisha and i chorused.***
I feel like there is something between Jasmine and Eric. They are always together. I said. And why do you care? Keisha asked. I don't but you know i like giving couples name. How about Ermine or Jaser ? I said. No comment, keisha said. Well, I'm going to talk to jasmine then. I said and walked towards her table. Hi, Jas. I said. Hi, Ria. She said back. I really like ur bag. I said. Thank you, my mum got them for me. She said. Wow, your mum got eyes for beautiful things, well I'm not surprised, she gave birth to you. I said. Thanks for the compliment. She said. No thanks, i was just stating the obvious. How is class for you especially now Eric has joined. I heard you were pissed at first because it been only girls in your department. I said. Yeah i was but I'm not any longer. Eric is so cool, nice, smart and fine. She said. Really??? Do you like him? I asked. Nah, i just like him as a friend. She said. I doubt it. "Erine or Jaser" which do you prefer? I asked. What are those? She asked. Your couple name, Eric + jasmine. Ermine or Jaser. So which do you like? I asked again. None, we are not couples. She said. Trust me you will soon be. Have a good day. I'll be shipping for the both of you. I said and left. So what were you discussing with jasmine. She looked so uncomfortable. Keisha said. I think she is just shy. I said. Don't tell me you asked her if she liked Eric? Keisha asked. Yes i did and can you believe she denied it, I'm going to do everything to get them together. I said. Are you alright? Keish asked. Maybe, Maybe not. I said. Hi Maria. Eric said. Hi... I greeted back. Can i talk to you for a few seconds? Yes... I said. I wanted to ask you if you can...Hi guys, how was this chapter, i think it was short.
