2nd Update today😊

........

That evening I was sitting on my bed with Emma and Bridgette talking about musicians. Tonight was Akwabafest. A musical concert done to welcome first years into the school. We had LA meme gang, R2Bees, Shatta Wale and Kwesi Arthur performing.

"I'm so excited. I'm so dying for Kwesi Arthur" Emma said her hands on her chest

"Have you actually taken a good look at mugeez and Omar?" Bridgette asked her

Dramatic Emma gasps and holds her heart like she's so hurt "who doesn't love Kwesi Arthur? He's like a god"

I sighed I was so bored I didn't want to go to programme. If stonebwoy was performing, I would have considered going. But I didn't like the musicians coming. I rolled my eyes at the girls. Can't they get something better to do? One thing that amazed me was that my dear roommate was holding onto her book she got this morning. I bet shed send it to the program and end up reading over there. I chuckled at my own thoughts.

"Let's ask Nattie......kwesi Arthur and R2Bees who has better songs??" They asked me and I looked at them confused. How was I supposed to know? I'm not a fan of them "Aren't you going to talk or say something?" Emma asked

"Huh? Talk?"

"Yeah talk you know, opening your mouth and closing it to make sound that can be understood? Or you still don't understand? Should I explain further?" She sarcastically answered

"She probably doesn't know any one of their songs" Bridgette said looking into her book.

"Hey I'm not boring I know most of their songs" I defended myself

"Okay mention just two of kwesi Arthur". Emma challenged. I sucked on my lower lips. I clearly didn't know its not my fault I prefer foriehn music rather. "Fine I don't know any". I admitted and the two burst into laughter.

Just then the door swung open revealing a very angry Nat. He entered the room and Emma swallowed her laughter at once. Something flashed in her eyes but I couldn't tell what it was. Nat looked at me then at Bridgette and at Emma even longer. He was breathing heavily and I could tell right away that he was angry.

" Pii? What's wrong?" He raised his hands and I shut up. Then one last stare at Emma he stormed out of the room.

"Excuse me" Emma said and run after him

"Okay so that was weird. Are they like seeing each other? You know? Secretly??" Bridgette asked amused. I raised my eyes at her

"Those two fight a lot its not a new thing. Your love book are getting into your head young lady. Those two cannot like each other it would be too weird" I said and then burst into laughter this girl reads too much it has over her.

"Hmmm. Its just a thin line between hate and love. You never know girl, maybe they are meant to be" she said whiles changing into her bathing robe

"Keep on dreaming" I said and my phone viberated.
A message came through. It was from a strange number. I rolled my eyes and stretch my body on my bed when my phone viberated again. I didn't like replying to odd numbers so I didn't even bother. I took my laptop ready to watch a movie when my phone rang. I checked the caller ID it was from the same number I ignored earlier. I I ignored it again and started my movie. 15mins into the movie my phone rang again. I began to get curiously. My mind wandered through a lot of thoughts..... A lot of what ifs. I shook those thoughts away and decided to answer the phone but the person hanged up. "Wasn't my fault" I muttered shrugging my shoulders.

And just like that my room door flung open and Jo stepped in frightening me

"I see you don't answer strange numbers. I should have saved my number on your phone" he said smiled.

"I'm sorry". I was all smiles. Of course the fear faded away the moment I set eyes on him. I didn't mean the apology. If that's all it took for him to come visit then why not.

"never mind" he said sitting next to me on my bed "what movie is that?"

"Kissing booth. You never watched it?" I asked surprised.

"Nope" he shook his head. "Start it. It almost in the middle".

I restarted the movie. Through out the movie, he kept passing funny comments about Ell and how she's so short and stubborn, comparing Noah' body to his. This boy is so egoistic. He made me laugh so much. I'm not sure I've laughed that much in days. I was so comfortable until he shifted closer and our bodies were touching. I began to feel nervous and wasn't concentrating on the movie anymore

" I needed to come closer so that the earpiece can stay in my ears it kept falling". He explained, sensing my uneasiness. Of course how can I be so stupid? Its because of the earpiece not me. For some reason I was sad. I couldn't even concentrate on Noah Flynn's gorgeousness. Not when there wasn't any space between us for Jesus to sit and that was because on the earpiece not me. I sucked on my lips frowning

"You should stop that its distracting" Jo said. I felt my cheek heat up and goose bumps spread all over me. I released my lower lips immediately

"You see its swollen?. Why do you even do that? He questioned. I wanted to talk but I couldn't you know why?. Because he was so close his pink lips looked so tempting. I couldn't help but stare at it.....

" hey Natt........what the...?" Bridgette voice sounded through the room making us both jerk away

Jo stood up "I'd see you later ...I have stuffs to do" he said and left. I closed my laptop ignoring Bridgette.

"Not a word about this to my brother" I said and stretched my body on the bed shutting my eyes avoiding any conversation with her

But I couldn't sleep. I know I didid nothing wrong but I felt so guilty. Sure he made me happy and all but it just didn't feel right. Or is it because I've never been that close to a boy who isn't my brother?
Because at home on Friday at Nat ,Danny and I would sleep in one room. We'd pick who's room to sleep in and you know, watch movies play and catch up on each others lives till we fall asleep. I always loved Fridays. But doing it with another boy was still fun but felt wrong.

I stood up and picked my maths pamphlet to solve some questions and take my mind off him.
