The Distinctions between us

Destiny

Noah Ross

Today I was supposed to fetch my brother after school and have our bonding time. So immediately after his classes I went to fetch him but I didn't get out of the car of course or else my beloved fans would scream out my name and others would cling onto me ,Cause chaos perhaps.

I was just inside my car,waiting for my younger brother ,Calvin when I caught a glimpse of her.Her beauty was breathtaking ,very innocently walking out of class .

"Hey Seth,see that girl wearing a headscarf, the muslim .Her name is Latifa . I want you to bring her to me,"I ordered."yes boss"he replied giving me a half salute.

Seth went for her and it seemed like she refused because next thing Seth carried her on his shoulders while other people stared at them as he made his way to my car.
I narrowed My eyes at him. Stupid bodyguard!Now he has probably ruined any chance I have with her.

"You didn't have to embarrass her like that Seth,"I scolded Seth immediately he put her at the passenger's seat."I am sorry boss but that was your order,"he answered returning the blame.

"Austin?"Latifa asked turning to me. I saw Seth try very hard not to laugh when Latifa called me Austin. He was literally making funny faces.I gave him the look that said I will strangle you if you don't get out of here now.

Thank God he understood and left us."Hello Latifa . I am sorry for that. He's my bodyguard, Seth.I ordered him to bring you to me.I am really sorry.please forgive me,"I explained.
"Ooh...it's okay."what a forgiving soul,i thought.She really loves to forgive."Why didn't you go after me yourself and why are you here?,"she asked out of nowhere.

Because I am a celebrity and fans would freak out if they saw me."I came to fetch my brother.He goes to school here."I answered instead.

"Ooh!i had no idea.D...did you... want anything?"she asked.I then saw Calvin approaching my car.

What did I want from her? I had no idea why I even had her brought to me in the first place so I said"I wanted to show you that God has made us meet and that destiny brought us together too,"she gave me that warm smile that reached my heart and lighted it whole as she her cheeks a bit rosy.

"To be honest Latifa,I wanted to ask you to go out with me ,sometime later since I have plans for today"

"Huh? I don't know ,I'll think about it"But I saw how shocked she was. She looks so cute.
"And ,can I have your phone number too?"I put on my sweetest face.

She was reluctant and i also saw that she thougt about something before she said"uh..okay".
she gave me her phone number before she said goodbye.
"I'll meet you soon,"I told her as she got out of the car just in time to meet Calvin.

I saw a smirk on his face.
"Now you're dating girls from my college?"he started as soon as he entered the car.Seth got in the car and started the car."No.I am not dating her".but I couldn't wait. "we just met the other day.so today,I wanted to take her out but thanks to our bonding that can't happen "I bailed myself out.
I saw confusion written all over his face but that's the only thing he's getting out of me.

"You won't believe what that chick called your brother,"Seth had to open his big mouth soon as he got in the car. "Austin?"he imitated Latifa, his voice sounding a lot girlie than Latifa's while Calvin broke into a laugh.They laughed so hard that tears welled in their eyes.

I glared at them and could actually feel my ears burning up.

"Stop right there Seth or you'll get it from me."They saw My red face and went quiet. "First,She's not a chick,She's Latifa .Second, She doesn't know I am Noah the celeb and I'd like very much for it to stay that way.okay?"I asked looking at Seth through the rear-view mirror.
"Yes boss"
I turned to Cal,"Especially you,since you go to school here .Don't ever tell her about my real identity."
"okay bro.Anyway what's the big deal.She's just like any girl and you always love fame since women throw themselves at you without hesitation,"he knew me well.

"I don't know.I just think she's not like any other girl, in fact she's different. "I answered as i also Digested the statement.

"whatever you say Noah"Cal shrugged.
"Hey boss .She's the knew thrilling adventure you were talking about."Seth had figure it out.I just nodded .He parked at our usual restaurant.we  went in to the restaurant but Seth stayed out while Cal and I did some bonding over lunch.

Afterwards we went and dropped Cal at my parents house.He lived with our parents and my sister Jacqueline and since I had a gig tonight  we went back to my flats,changed my clothes and left.

After performing, I took some pictures with my beloved fans and i few autographs .I call them beloved because they are the reason behind my music's prosperity. They have supported me and made me reach this far.Then I headed home and had dinner.I  ordered pizza and found a soda in my fridge.Sipping and munching, I thought over what mom had said. Someone to cook for me and get cozy with sounds really good.But who? I was not one to even try a relationship thing. I only did flings. I shrugged it away. That could wait anyway.

After shower,I went and climbed on my bed. It had been a hectic day but totally worth it because at the end of the day I was happy to meet Latifa again and get her a number too. So damn fortunate .

Her number. I have her number.I immediately took out my phone and texted her.

"Hy,its Austin."I felt guilty for lying.Maybe soon I'll tell her the truth.

"Oh.Hey Austin."she wasn't a big talker and I understood.so I was the one to text a lot.

"About taking you out ,have you though about it yet?"It was killing me inside.
"Yes and it can't be tomorrow, I have work . I'll be going to a client's house." She had no idea how excited any other person who knew me as Noah would've been.
"Then when will you be free?"I asked almost sounding needy.

"How about Thursday lunch?"
That was two days away,I know ,call me desperate for all I care .This girl did something to me I couldn't understand.I just wanted to see her, smell that unique fragrance.

"Okay"I couldn't say 'not okay ',we only met twice after all.
"Goodnight Austin,"she sent me some sleepy emojis.Although I wanted to keep on chatting since I was clearly the only one participating in this conversation but I hesitated .maybe she had a hectic day just like me.
"Night too ,Latifa "

It should have been easy for me to sleep already because of how tired I was but instead I tossed and turn till late night when I finally let sleep take me.
