Grace*

I knew I shouldn't have been here in time and I still came on time anyway. I'm sure the poster at the hallway said " book review at 4:30 not freaking 6. But yet again this are first years ... always have something to show they are cool and don't arrive on time. Wake up tards this ain't Africa. Wait till I become president and you'll know what it means to be on time. Jason said he would be here by 5 since he was running late some place I don't know and it's now. 5:33 . Wait what. This watch has got to be messing with me. I could have sworn it was 38 10 minutes ago. But why was life so unfair to me.
"Hey Anna ...sorry...Grace"I recognized the voice behind me. Jason. Right now all I had to wonder was wtf did my crush just do."Did you mistake me for another person or are you thinking of them so loudly."I looked to him . through him infact just to let him know it kind of meant something. But all he said was "What do you mean?". Clearly he ain't suited for drama I wonder why he's into novels this much anyway. So I decided not to go further and tell him
I'd kill him if for the second option.
And smile at him and say " nevermind.. come sit..no one's here yet except for that guy at the back there." Clearly I needed his help. It's just that this is JASON BLAKE. The one boy you don't get to not-be-friends-with. I mean he's so perfect. I mean who can mention his name and not think of eloquent

soft-spoken

smart

charming

and to top it all with
what I think of alot when I see him
sexy
.Jason is that guy. And no way I'm i avoiding him. Especially not at a book review.
As we waited,.... "together"...oh my Goodness I just said the word together. Why does it bother me. It's Jason. And I'm with Evans. wait do I love Evans or am i committed to him?.  fuck .
FUCK.
GRACE HILLERY KEEP IT TO fucking GETHER.

I checked my phone and found the group chat some debate about Africa. And yes I giggle. Just a tiny bit. But it did not miss Jason so he asked. "What's so funny.."closing the book the book he had held in his hand. As if to imply speak to me cherry I've paused a novel for you. 
If he sold attention. I think many girls around here would buy.
And now I had it just like that. It sure does count to be this attractive.
I wanted to go on and tell him how some students were arguing about Africa. I mean how bored can people get when there's so much books to read.
But then I noticed the man standing tall to start a conversation.
How silent can it get when a crush is this near you. Or rather how loud can it be on the inside. Because I did not notice the group that had joined us.
Then I decided to shut my phone and engage in the discussion about to begin. What brought me here in the first place. Or was it a boy?.
Before tapping shutdown. I saw a text popup.
*Loml : do you like traveling?

*Jake

How far can tomorrow be? Dad said the flight would be on Monday. Today's Sunday, but if it weren't for some woman who got late to give her family's documents, we'd have been to Africa by Friday. It would be a warm Sunday afternoon for me. I suppose. But they say Africa is hot not warm. Hot weather is fine except for the sweat part. I mean I get to dress light. Maybe even get some African girl to like my triceps. But I've seen African men. On some TV show I think. And boy they are B.I.G.
I heard the door unlock.
My Dad and Mom were home.
"Hey son, have you said goodbye to your friends yet?". Mom began as she took dad's coat. "Yeah. I went by Andrew's yesterday." I replied as they walked upstairs to their room.
I went for the one friend I have she approves of. The rest are just unnecessary. No not Jesicca. Jesicca is special.
I mean I nearly declined this just to be at her birthday next week. So yeah. She's special.

Evans*
My weekend was fairly good. And the best part about is that I just learnt that Denzel's and Angelina were coming to Africa too. Turns out the Mendys were on flight to Africa. What a lucky time to be alive. I would lose Grace because I knew she would never agree to come with me leave alone her strict parents say on the matter. What is it with wealthy families? They always have a way to criticize everything. Either way..life could not deny me Angelina. And now I have a Denzel too. The latter could just lay back. I mean not that I plan on doing any end year exams any time soon or anything.
But it is what I get. And I'll gladly take the whole package. At least if I was going to get swallowed by a stray Giant dog. I wasn't going to be alone. I hate dogs. Especially when people get so touchy with them. My hatred for the touchy species however supercedes that of dogs.
It was 1:30 and our flight was an hour and a half later. We were headed to the airport having carried the essentials we would require. I basically had not so much to pack a bunch of T-shirts ...shorts some earphones and my laptop. That was just about enough.
But wait till I saw Angelina's bags at the airport.
"Jeez , Angel it's Africa not Mars"I tried not to laugh. She brushed me on the shoulder. The only human I would allow to get hansy around. Except for Grace. And my mom. The rest either get fist pumps or just a nod of the head. Like I said I don't trust touchy beings.
Denzel was yapping something to Jake about how Africans shake hands vigorously and I nearly puked.
"Very funny Anderson." She faked a smile but I noticed the giggle in it anyway.
"Prompt as always huh" I said to her trying to ignore the thoughts of Denzel's words in my mind while changing the topic.
"Yeah...you know how dad likes his schedules.." she denies it but promptness runs in the Mendys DNA. I mean neither have I ever got her late to anything or her brother for that matter. But forget her brother. That guy is either very ill or some special type of special.
I mean who is told about going to Africa and gives a reaction like. Is the continent safe from the incoming tremors.
