When I sat well on the chair, I said, "so what's up?, and Brian being so much of an idiot replied, ' the sky is up Ellie", I rolled my eyes and opened my can of can( I think I was getting addicted to coke). Christiana asked Brian to get up from his seat and I refused to. I said, ''Brian, sit your sorry ass on the chair. You came here first so no one has the right to get you out of your seat. Feel comfortable,'' I said while looking at Christiana. Brian said, ' Ellie, you are talking to me, so I don't expect you to be looking at Christiana,'' I laughed and smiled. I dipped the fries in the ketchup and ate as if no one was standing there. Christiana furious as ever said, ' Ellie, what is your problem? I already apologised and you don't want to accept, is that my problem? give me a break."

I giggled and said, ''Yes, and you're here, trying to take ssomeone's, and if the person won't get up for you to sit, is that my problem? And apology does not actually do anything in this situation. I'm sure you have no idea how I was feeling when you kissed Terry. Go on with your relationship. I will forgive you anyways but I will spend this week in Cobby's house. But that does not mean Brian is getting up.''
She smiled and hugged me. I did this because of Cobby. He was a lover and did not like fighting. I ate and chatted with the boys. Our conversation was interesting, Kelvin asked Tinasha and I a question, "so what do the girls of this generation expect from a boy?'' He said rounding his hands signifying all the girls on the table.

I sat comfortably and answered, "that's easy, we need a man who holds us when we are sad. A man who tells us we are beautiful even after we have cried our eyes out and are looking like a mess. A man who sings music with us in the car. A man who will allow us to have his shirt when we want it. A man who will spin us around and tickle us and make us laugh. A man who will always be there for us. A man who with one hug can take away all our pain, a man who is loyal, and not forgetful. Before I forget, a man who is about 6.5 inches tall, God fearing, a man who will serve me breakfast and dinner on bed, and one who will take me to Paris anytime its my birthday. Right Tinasha?'' She nodded her head in agreement and all the boys on the table started laughing. I got confused and asked, "what's funny?'' Kelvin shook his head and said, "is that what the girls of your generation want from a man. Like what the hell, that's too much from one being. Now what we the men want from the girls. We want women who have hips and butt and boobs but are not fat. A woman who is ready for sex whenever and wherever. A woman who will produce the finest type of children. A girl who has a lot if hair so it transfers to our children, a girl who makes any meal I want and has it ready before we, the men come home from work. A woman who will remove our shoes and massage our feet with a. Sweet smelling perfume every night after work. A hardworking woman and a funny, God fearing, a bit cocky woman.'

Now I started to laugh hysterically. My ribs began to hurt and I smiled at him and, with the remaining breath I had after laughing, I said, "hold up, boys, when you dream, dream biiiigggggg, cook for you? Can't you prepare you own meals. Please. And can you explain to me how a girl can have hips and butt and not be fat? She'll be fat,she can be slim and have all that."I was getting confused. "Nope Ellie, we have girls like that. They're simply slim thick. Someone like...., someone like you Ellie. You're not fat, you have it all but you're still having the perfect body." I smiled and nodded shortly, it still made no sense though.

With that, Tinasha and I picked our trays, said our goodbyes and left the table for class. When we reached the class, I told her what Mrs Cardbury had said earlier and told her that we would be doing the auditioning the next day. We discussed the students who have the potential and all. When the bell rang, I went to Miss Stenly to ask for permission to announce it during our assembly. She agreed with me and I stood in front of the whole school. That's when I realized that Forestgroove was not a small school at all. "Good afternoon boys and girls. I have come to give you an announcement. So tomorrow, we, that is Tinasha and I, are having an auditioning for people who will like to join the school choir. It'll be taking place at the music class in the Secondary school block, at 10:00am. So if you think you have the potential to sing, beautifully of course", I giggled and so did they, "you can come to us tomorrow. That's all I have to say. Thank you and have a good evening." After that, I heard a round kf applauds and I quickly went to join my grade mates. Since we were about to write our End of term exams, we had after school classes. Today we had Information Technology for another hour. So we all licked our bags and moved to that class.

After about 20 minutes of settling and learning, Cobby came to get me from class. I placed my head on the table because I had no idea what he was doing here. He came to the class in a haze, he greeted my IT teacher and said, "I'm so sorry sir, but Ell, sorry Ellie is needed in the hospital as soon as possible. Her brothers' girlfriend was just admitted after she had suffered a serious injury. Please can she skip this class, I promise you that, all the notes will be copied.'' I shot my head up when I heard that news. My IT teacher nodded in agreement, Cobby walked over to my table and picked my bag and we walked to the parking lot and as soon as we got into the car, I said, "what happened? spill! now! Cobby."

''Okay Ell, it was all a lie. I just needed to get you out of school early because I missed you so much,'' I screamed and hit his shoulder, "you have no idea what I'm gonna go through tomorrow at school. It will be all like, how was Ariana? I hope the injury is getting healed? How did the accident happen and those things." He smirked and said, "all you gotta do is lie baby." "It's not that easy Cobby, not everyone is like you. I'm really disappointed. Mr Speech guy came to pick me up from school because he couldn't control himself." I said and sighed. " Oh, so you want to go back to that boring class. Okay sure, you can step down. I don't really care." I heard giggling from the back so turned my head to look, I saw three different guys today. I was getting to see more hot guys each and everyday since I met Cobby, it was actually amazing.
