*Aaliya's P.O.V.*
I quietly walked to my room with my blanket and pillows. I sat them on my bed. The bathroom was vacant so I took my stuff and went to have a bath. I felt bad for sleeping outside the last night because now they'll think I don't trust them and I have stay with them for quite some time and I can't mess up and cause trust issues. I put on the shower and had a nice bath, wore my outfit for the day which was a baseball shirt and skinny jeans.
I then stepped out of the bathroom and decided to do something good for my roommates. I went to the common kitchen and made some tea for all of them. I made some pancakes, (yes pancakes yum) and walked to the room.
"Gooooooodmorning sunshines!" I screamed.
"Shut up Al", they said in unison. I rolled my eyes and kept the pancakes in the center of the room. It took a minute but then Sam's head popped up, "Are those pancakes I smell?", she said.
"Did someone say Pancakes?", Felix flung himself towards the food. Will came running and they all murderously gobbled down the pancakes and sipped the tea. "Oh my god, I think I am in love. If this pancake was a person I would marry it 178 times already", Will said.
I laughed, "Well, lets just say I'm a writer cum chef."
They all hugged me like little school kids and thanked me. I felt happy that I could do something to cover my stupid behavior up. "I am going to look for work", Sam declared.
Oh shoot, I didn't have a job yet. I had applied in many places but none of them had responded. "I'll call up my workplaces today and hope for a job", I said.
Will accompanied Sam and I was left behind with Felix. I took out my laptop and began dialing numbers on my phone and inquiring. Felix sat against the window with earphones plugged into his ears and his head was bobbing back and forth to probably Cheap Thrills haha.
I called up all the listed places and they said they would get back to me, sigh. You know what "getting back" means right?
I sighed and closed my laptop and lay on my bed. Just then my mom called. Shit.
"Hey ma! What's up? Ah, nothing I'm just sitting in my room", I said.
Then she asked me the most dreaded question.
"What are the names of your roommates Aaliya?", mom casually asked but it hit me like a truck.
"Uhhh, my roommates? Well, there is me Aaliya, there's Fel- Felicia, Samantha and Wi-Veronica. YEAH, that's about it", I spoke trying to sound calm while I was almost shitting my pants. Before she could ask me their countries, I quickly said, "Mom, I'm getting a call. Maybe it's from the University. I'll call you later. Bye! Love you and Nupur." and I cut the call.
"Phew. That was close", I said.
Just then Felix looked up from his laptop screen and said, "Felicia? Really? Is that the best you could come up with Al?"
My eyes widened and he burst out laughing. "You were eavesdropping! You little bitch!" I screamed as I threw a pillow at him.
"Ow! You're gonna pay for this", he said as he got up. He ran towards me and we had a huge full fledged pillow fight. After all the pillows were transformed to a pile of feathers on the floor I pushed him onto the pile beaming with victory and seconds later he pulled me down with him and I landed right next to him.
"It's a tie okay? Don't be so happy", Felix said as he panted for breath.
"Yeah whatever, except for the fact that I won", I said as I chuckled.
"Fuck you."
"Fuck you too."
and then we got up and started laughing. We spent the next 2 hours cleaning the room. A pillow fight has its cons too okay?
"Let's go up to the roof. I want to sit there", I said and we took our phones and went to the roof.
"So Aaliya, what secrets are you hiding under those black locks of hair?", Felix asked as we both sat down on the floor.
"What do you wanna know Felix?", I said.
"Let's play a game", he said.
"21 questions it is!", I said.
I smiled at him and I din't have the slightest hint of what was soon coming my way.
*Hey people! Sorry, I had a busy day yesterday and couldn't update. But here I am! So Aaliya and Felix are going to play 21 questions. What do you think will happen next?
