THE NERD

CHAPTER 4!!!

Hi. So I decided that since I really love writing I am just going to continue even if you don't reach the target. Thanks for reading this now. Hope you enjoy the story.

Lynn's P.O.V

The weekend was just the usual. I spent time at my mother's clinic writing lyrics of my favorite songs. I told her about me and Nicholas and she acted as if I had just told her he had proposed.

"Oh my God! My daughter is finally growing up."I rolled my eyes at the obvious. "Remember those times when you didn't want anything to do with boys?"I laughed softly. So I understood where she was coming from remembering that I was an introvert and I only had one friend who was a boy. The rest were girls and after he passed on, I decided never to have boyfriends since I believed they would all die.

Well now I was all grown up and I realized at that particular time in my life I was a child and I couldn't understand death. I remember the moment I saw his corpse in a black casket with glass at his top half and I laughed. Laughed at the fact that I was awake and he was asleep or so I thought. He hated sleep especially when I was awake since he believed there was something he was missing out on. I sighed heavily as I let go of my past. It was eleven years ago anyway.

"So when will I meet him?" She asked and I looked at her as if she had grown another head. She was acting as if Nicholas was my fiance.

"He is just a friend and he might come home on Tuesday to TUTOR me." I said saying the word 'tutor' loudly so that she didn't imagine things that weren't possible.

My mum was just a very awesome person. She was the most understanding human being that ever existed (apart from my dad of course). We were really close and even though our family was sort of broken (dad not being present all the time) she was this glue that made us stick together somehow.

"Kierra?" Her fellow colleague called her. She left the papers she was holding neatly before she excused herself. I stood up quickly and gathered my things which consisted of a thin sunset orange hoodie and a sling bag and pulled her gently before she left.

"I guess I better be going." I told her though her jungle green orbs pleading me not to. Every weekend I always spent my time with her in her clinic since we barely met during the week. It was kind of a re-union after a week of not talking. She'd try to spend ample time with me though sometimes she was called to see a patient or do something with the accounts. I appreciated her effort in keeping me company though sometimes it seemed I was distracting her like right now.

"See you soon honey." She said before kissing my forehead. Something good about her was her ability to read eyes. She could tell I was bored and even though she wished I could stay a bit longer, she let me leave.

"That boy is really rude." I said while sipping my soda.I looked at the earlier mentioned kicking a girl's leg. I was now at the school's dinning room having my lunch with my newly found friend.

"He isn't rude" Nicholas said barely averting his eyes from his phone.

"But...but he just..."I stuttered away not knowing how to express myself better. How can you call kicking someone's foot and in this case a girl's foot not rude. I mean the aisle was big enough and clear for that matter. He didn't have to pass there.

"But he just kicked the girl's foot?" He asked still looking at his phone. "That's what Aisha (the victim) wants everybody to think"

"How do you know" I asked him clearly amused by his statement but not actually understanding it.
