Patience

Chapter 7

Nyla's POV

*One Week Before Mocks*

"Okay, White Chicks or Little Man." I said to Jonathan while on FaceTime. We had recently started asking each other trivia questions instead of the basic 21 questions. It was so fun and always ended up with the two of us arguing about which option was better.

"No, I refuse to answer this question." He said while rubbing his hand down his face to indicate how stressed the question had made him.

"You have to thats the rules and you know it." I said while laughing.

"I'm serious I just can't do it."

"Why not Nath, its easy."

"Okay if it's so easy then what would you pick?"

"You do this every time knowing that it's against the rules." I argued.

"Fine Mrs Follow Every Rule, I pick Little Man." As soon as he gave his answer my mouth widen in shock.

"Are you actually being serious, White Chicks is a classic and definitely the Wayan Brothers best film." I said.

"I'm entitled to my own opinion Nyla and i'm not changing my mind this time." He replied.

I rolled my eyes and asked him for the next question.

"Okay, um Dubai or -" he asked before he was interrupted.

"Nathan, come downstairs please." I heard his mum shout.

"Well I have to go, i'll snap you later." He said while sighing loudly.

"Bye." And with that I quickly hung up.

I was having that feeling again. The feeling where my stomach felt like it was going to explode. I knew that I definitely had a small crush on Jonathan, but I wasn't going to say anything to anyone because I didn't know what it meant.

It was a bit weird pretending just to be normal around him, but as we've grown to be friends i've enjoyed his company. I wasn't ready to ruin that because of my silly feelings.

My mum had been preparing for our big family dinner this Sunday. I had heard that my grandparents were visiting along with April's family. And possibly my Dads brothers but I couldn't really remember. Natasha had also informed me that Nemo was coming along to dinner.

Since I found out that Nemo had been ignoring me I was quite nervous to see him after almost 3 months.

I decided to message him, just so that he could know that I was still thinking about him.

To Nemo
From Nyla;

Hey Nemo, I miss you x
I just wanted to know if you were coming to dinner on Sunday, everyone's gonna be there.

What had annoyed me about Nemo was that his Uni wasn't even far away. Sure it might be long to keep coming home but it wouldn't hurt for him to check up on us, or even call us.

I don't know what I did to make him so upset with me, but if it really bothered him then he would've call me to straighten it out. But I guess his pride is bigger than our relationship.
