"I mean it, I feel fine, father. Mother, tell him I'm okay." Anayah smiled.
She was in bed for several days, after she was discharged from the hospital. Her parents obviously had a panic attack in fear of pneumonia.
The doctor did say she should keep warm for a couple of months, other wise something terrible would happen to her.
"I haven't been to school in a week and half. Mother's been taking good care of me. As well as Analeigh, and Ronné and Brad, who use my supposed illness as an excuse to skip class." She giggled, "But I'm great. Thanks for all the presents and stuff I forgot to thank you for. It will surely be a birthday I will never forget."
"Yah. Unfortunately." Ashley sighed, and Danilo continued,
"Wish you could forget it all. But since you're fine now, we can still throw you a party or whatever you want, mija."
"Nope. No need. Birthday was about a week ago and I'm not in the mood for parties. Just pray for me. I need all your blessings. Although... I Do need more gifts." She smiled toothily.

Anayah was on campus after two weeks but she felt as if it was after a year. The environment felt different. She decided to go for a swim. To skip class for the last time and relax a bit; get used to the environment, I guess.
She took a shower, put on her swimsuit and got in.
Five minutes had passed and Anayah was floating on the water, lost in thoughts.
She hadn't seen Renar nor Dylan in two weeks. Ronné told her that they did stop by, several times, but her father didn't allow them to see her. Bummer.
She closed her eyes, giggling at the thought of her father throwing them out.
So lost in thoughts, she didn't notice someone creep up behind her in the water.
I mean, she noticed but didn't notice. Don't know how that happens, but it does.
Floating for a second more, or two, her head lightly bumped into something in the water and she immediately opened her eyes and positioned herself well.
She was faced with a handsome, shirtless brunette, who was looking down at her.
"Careful. Don't want you swallowing too much water." He pulled her closer to him by the waist.
Anayah just stared at him, noticing how close they were to each other.
"I'm Christian. Single." He smiled lopsidedly, holding on to her.
"You're Christian Single? Nice name." She smiled.
"No, I mean, I'm Christian and I'm single." He laughed.
Anayah forced a smile, "I don't know what I'm supposed to do with that information, but nice meeting you, Christian. I'm Christian too, but my name's Anayah."
"Funny and Beautiful. I bet you're intelligent too." He laughed.
"You can let go now." Anayah laughed as he slowly withdrew from her and they both got out of the pool.
"The pool's freezing today." Anayah grabbed her towel.
"Really? It's not." He smiled at her, getting closer to her.
"Uh... Never mind." She proceeded to wipe her hair when the towel fell from her hands and into the pool.
"Great." She rolled her eyes, got it out and squeezed it.
Christian just chuckled and put his dry towel around her, his hands on her shoulders as he looked into her eyes.
They were in that position for a few seconds until Anayah cleared her throat and looked away.
