Chapter 2 : Flashbacks

It was a rainy day , in college had alot ahead of me and I was on my way to my dorm just a good girl and there he go bumped into me knocking every paper I had for class falls out my hand and into the rain right along with his. I was mad , pissed so i hit him and started running away to my dorm room. I was chit chatting to my roommate about the situation and I get a knock on my dorm door I came to the door asking him what he want & why he was here telling him I don't want to talk to him, he was handing me the papers that was ruined in the rain. I snatched it telling him " thanks alot but I got 24hours to have this paper in before tomorrow so yeah bye ". He kept trying to talk to me but I just wouldn't give him the time. My friend/roommate handed him my number but I couldn't be mad he was fine and chocolate just had this cute look on his face that I couldn't resist his teeth was pearly white. I just grinned days past by I seen him again he's helping me with my pages for class basically tutoring which I respected. I asked him to tell me about himself with a smile plastered on my face he looked at me with eye contact and started telling me his major and what was eventually going to do with his life and I couldn't be more intrigued i took a break from the work because when your in college or school generally it can be really stressful at times but I was doing this for my mother so I knew I couldn't give up so as we're walking down the side walk I was upset about the grade I made on my pages and he told me "I'm sorry I didn't expect this ". Me either I said to myself I told him I never knew I was even going to make it to college anytime soon how I'm suppose to make my mom happy if I'm not passing I want to be just as good as my sisters in the middle of the talking I was told some devastated news I felt my heart collapse through my gut getting the call that my mother who raised me has passed away I cried so much I couldn't even hold it in. Fast forward he walked to my mom's house after the funeral he came into the house only to see my sisters and their husbands one of my sisters called out to him " excuse me who are you ?". He said " my name's Robert ". My sister stared at him do you have a last name ? , Do you have a job ? He answered " Gayle, no but I'm in school majoring in engineering I got schalorships .Everyone introduces themselves to him & even my old ex boyfriend who showed up to support me in my time of grief. Robert ended up trying to leave but I run to see why he's leaving so soon he tells it's family and I think you may want time to spend with them I insist on taking him home so I begged him to let me get my keys I ran inside grabbed my keys minutes later we pulling up to his home which was a trailer home I didn't judge him I asked him can I come in.
