Time: 1513 hours
Location: St Joseph's College

Its 15:13 that means 47 more minutes of sitting here and pretending to study while fighting sleep that is threatening to pull me under. Also its incredibly hot today so that's not helping *fans self*. Don't get me wrong here I would gladly give in if it wasn't for the flat faced prefect that keeps sending me death glares, so no sleeping.
That leaves me no choice but to start thinking about him, everything I touch or look at all leads up to him. For instance the chemistry textbook Luther is drooling on reminds me of he came to my classroom earlier to borrow one, but of course I don't have one....so I had to settle on watching Thando flirt up a storm with him while I was completely ignored. No fault of hers though since I'm socially handicapped when it comes to him... and people I don't know in general.

I wonder if its illegal to force some to live with you until they fall in love with you.....no that's totally kid napping...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The siren goes of and I let out a sigh of relief, I thought this day would never end. I pack my bag, making sure to keep my diary at the very bottom. Its a Thursday so that means its our group's turn to sweep the class. I start stacking up the chairs on the desks while Moreri and Thabang argue about who should sweep outside, I did it last week. After a few minutes the winner of the argument, Moreri, joins me in sweeping inside the class. I'm almost done with my half when he starts talking.

"So...Tlhalefo?"

"Yes, what do you want?" I sigh as I drag a chair slowly on the concrete floor hoping the plastic and concrete combo would irritate him enough to leave me alone. But no such luck.

"How could you?" He fake gasps and look at me with fake hurt."I'm not always looking to freeload off you...well at least not today. "

"Oh joy." I say flatly.

"Today I want to give you an offer you can't refuse. I know you have been single since.." he pauses for a second and pretends to calculate something before continuing. "...you were born so I have a proposal for you." He says with a toothy grin

"Not that I'm gonna take it but spit it out, I'm curious to see what you came up with this time." I say as I stack the last chair up and turn to look at him.

"OK so how about you let me be your make out buddy for a small fee say for P50 a month I teach how to treat you future boo thing  right." He says goofy smile never leaving his face.

"So you are prostituting your lips now Moreri? I'm gonna tell your mom. And no thanks, you probably have herpes. And oh I'm perfectly fine with my inexperience." I smile and he gives me the middle finger

"I love you too." I say sarcastically

By this time we are done and I go get my bag which is waaaay too heavy for someone my size then walk out class and make my way to the school gate to find my school bus.

But before I make it to the gate I spot a large of students gathered at the notice board. I try to get around them to see what the fuss is all about but I give up after someone crushes my small foot under their overly large one. I curse them and their ancestors as I limp away in pain not even bothering to see who it was.

I'm a few meters away from the board and the crowd when a familiar voice calls behind me.

"Hey?"

Its him. 

There is no way he is talking to me to I keep walking... no limping away to the gate.

But then a hand touches my shoulder making me stop and he stands in front of me and I almost gasp.

"Hi I kinda sort of stepped on your foot by accident back there...sorry." He says with a sheepish grin as he looks down at me.

I don't say anything for a few seconds because honestly I can't believe it and he looks at me awkwardly.

"You OK?"He asks a tad bit concerned and amused at the same time.

I blink and finally answer him"Y...Yeah I'm fine. It...its nothing"

"You sure? Because you are kinda limping." He asks

"I'm good really...don't worry. I will walk it off.." I spit out, stumbling over my words

"KHRISTIAN!!" A voice screams his name in the distance

"Sorry again...what's your name I didn't get- "

He is cut off again by the voice screaming his name

"KHRISTIAN THE SCHOOL BUS IS HERE...WE GONNA LEAVE YOUR ASS"

"Shit gotta go. Bye." And with that he sprints to the gate.

I stand there for a few minutes frozen and buzzing with excitement

HE TALKED TO ME.
