Beautiful Imperfections

THIRTY FIVE

School had not closed and I mentioned in the text that we should meet when school closes.

I really had to tell him what was on my mind and he might leave if I kept him waiting. Nahh he won't. He's in love with me so he'll do anything but it'll hurt if he leaves. I then replied.

**where are you? **

**first car park**

**I'm on my way**

I turned to Janie and she looked back at me. "Why're you looking at me like that?"

I didn't say anything but stood up again and began to walk away. I heard Janie groan behind me.

"Where're you going young lady?"

I turned to our lecturer and put my hand on my stomach. "It still hurts. I'm going home."

Her face became sober. "Okay red head, go home and take pills, okay?"

I nodded like I was in pain and dashed out of class. It was like there was no use of me coming for lectures today.

My legs were moving too fast because I didn't want him to leave but I needed them to be slower because I hadn't formulated the words I was going to say to him.

Look, I'll just say it how it comes out. It'll be good. You'll be good girl.! I kept saying to myself and then I saw him standing there with Collins.

I wanted to turn back but he had already raised his hand with a grin. I heaved and walked towards them and smiled at Collins.
"Hey." He said and I looked away.

"Uhhh this conversation was meant to be between David and I."

"Oh! I'm aware of that. I'll just excuse you both." Another brilliant Britain accent. He moved away and I faced David.

"Rude." He said.

"Look I just want to get to this quick."

He frowned. "What's that?"

I had to do this fast before this bold girl part of me will fly away.

"Uhm you know....when you came over to my house, I thought you were still into Selena and that was what has been on my mind till that day at Janie's."

He shook his head. "No. Pearl. Don't tell me you're gonna say this." He knew already.

"I have to David. I'm sure you thought I was into Brad but I'm not into him..." I took a break studying his emotions. He was getting sad like he didn't want to hear what I was saying. I thought he'll cheer up when I said I didn't like Brad. "Instead, I'm into someone else..."

"Lemme guess Trevor." His voice began to rise and I stepped back.

"Guessed right."

He closed his eyes like he was disappointed and then I added. "I just didn't know early that you were into me which was...." His eyes flicked open.

"So I'm sure you think he loves you!" Now, he shouted. This was bad. I wished I took Trevor's advice and just let them catch their sub.

"I just need you to understand." He busted into an outrageous laughter making me very confused.

"I'm sorry for you cause you picked the wrong motherfucker Pearl. Do you think this is some movie or a fairytale novel? I loved you sincerely and then you chose the wrongest person on this planet! The person who brought up the fucking idea at first!" People passing by began to stare and I got embarrassed.

"Please calm down David. What idea?"

Collins then held David. "Calm bruhv."

"I'm calm! I'm calm!" He was still shouting and then I shouted back. "It's not my fault that I fell for him so stop behaving like a fucking child!"

He rolled his eyes. "You are so foolish! God! Fucking how I still love you that way! You're dating a monster that you're unaware of!"

David just insulted me infront of everyone and then I smacked him hard on the cheek with all my strength.  Collins and everyone gasped. I began to breathe heavily. "You're in no place to insult me you bastard." My voice was low but loud and clear enough for him to hear.

He stepped closer to me and Collins held him back. "Watch it man."

"Go ask your pretty black boyfriend what he's hiding from you." He said heartlessly and walked away then I shouted back. "Go fuck yourself!" People around gasped and I walked away too.

Lucky for me, most students were still having lectures so there wasn't a crowd. I kept walking fast thinking of only one thing. What's Trevor hiding from me? I didn't even think about the insult or the slap I gave David.

David's words kept playing in my head as I was walking. I didn't even know where I was going all I just wanted to do was to get out of that premises.

The person who brought up the fucking idea at first?!

What idea was he talking about? I had so many things running through my mind. David didn't want to say anything so he told me to ask Trevor by myself. I got out my phone and decided to dial Trevor's number but no, I couldn't.
He wouldn't tell me anything. I was very sure he wouldn't say a word but I could just try so I called him and he picked.
"Hey babe." His voice was quick. "I'm still with Isa. We stopped by to get lunch." I checked the time and it was 12pm.

"That's healthy. Well, are you hiding anything from me?"

There was a long silence and I broke it. "Are you there?" I was still walking fast and my voice was shaking.

"You talked to either of them, didn't you?" Oh my God. He was actually hiding something from me.

"I'll ask one last time. What are you hiding from me?"

"Where are you? Are you still in..." and then I hung up. I couldn't hear anything from his sexy lips apart from what he was hiding.

My heart began to beat faster like it was about to break out from my rib cage. I saw a bar by the road side and I got inside finding a chair by the corner. I sat down on it holding my chest.

What was Trevor hiding from me? My mind couldn't get off that. I needed to do something that'll make me stop thinking this hard but I couldn't drink. I had to think straight. I had to figure this myself. No way else but to ask Ahneeka. Maybe she'd know and of course she'll tell me because she would do anything to break my relationship with Trevor.

What if what he was hiding wasn't bad? What If it was something good? But the way David said it. Nahhh it was something bad and people hide bad things from people cause it's bad. That's the point. I got out my phone and saw five missed calls from Trevor and two from Janie. I ignored them and messaged Brad to send Ahneekas number and in no time, he did.
