"The guy asked me if my butt grew bigger every minute because after minutes of staring he thought so, I mean , who uses a 'flirtatious' line whilst learning computing? , I smacked him on the head and he had to yelp so loud for the lecturer to make a scene after that ,.. using 'Botox' as a topic!"
"So you decided to leave the lecture hall?"
"Well what would you have had me do? , stay in that premises and have my pride trampled upon?!"Sandra screamed dramatically as we made our way back to the hostel. She stomped her foot angrily , walking past a few students , I followed her like a lost puppy.
"Slow down Sandy , it's not really a big deal"I huffed.
I soon regretted that sentence.
She sharply turned and scowled at me.
"Well sorry Mrs Kayla Leo Banks , I guess I'm overreacting after having everyone in a lecture hall staring at my ass"She growled.
I tried smiling.You want to die don't you?
"What are you smiling about you lad"She barked.
"Your eyes twinkle when you frown"I lied.
She rolled her eyes.
"Was that a line your incredibly breathtaking spouse used on you?"
"Watch it woman"I smacked her arm.
"I need five bowls of coconut ice cream"She whined.
"Caesar sent in a few boxes of strawberry and chocolate ice cream , that's all I have for you"I raised both hands in surrender.
"I'll take it"She unhesitatingly answered , dragging me along as she entered the hostel.
We settled in , a large bowl of strawberry ice cream and lecture notes in hand.
Sandra had already taken a few spoons of the ice cream before scribbling down a few notes from the computing slides I read.
"—It's more like a program that helps the user perform many specific tasks"
Sandra nodded , scribbling.
"Well that's actually what you missed when you left the class , hope you get it now"
"I do , thanks a lot Mrs Banks"She gave a mock salute , earning a snort from me. She took another scoop and glanced at the photo frame on my study table. It was a picture Caesar and I took while at the Maldives island.
"When is he coming back? , I know you don't say it , but it's obvious you wish he was here. How long has it been?"
"A week"I whispered , gazing at the photo frame , I had the widest smile on my face as Caesar kissed the crane of my neck , his arms on my bare tummy , after having whispered a few words concerning hitting the photographer on the head if he kept on staring at me like 'that' , I couldn't help but chuckle and scowl.Oh you liar , you were grinning like an idiot from all the attention Caesar was giving you , no scowling , I repeat no scowling!
Leave it to my subconscious mind to spoil the moment.At your service whether rain or shine.
"That must be hard , I would follow my spouse every where if I was married you know , at least I would not stay in class and be mocked at for having a great ass"She hissed.
"Oh my goodness Sandra , let it go "I laughed out briefly ,"But you're right , I do miss him , but I should learn how to get used to this , I can't cry over his absence everytime he has to leave the country"I said convincingly, more to myself than her.
"Uhuh ,(she licked her spoon teasingly) , the ideal wife"
"Oh please"
"Oh drop the charade lad , I know you're sulking over Caesar , let it out Mrs Banks , after all he told me to take care of you whilst he's gone"
"A bad idea on his part if I think about it"I dropped my spoon in the now empty ice cream bowl.
"Well I managed to drag you out of your mansion—"
"Hey hold up , I was the one doing the dragging after you went round the house—"
"Mansion Aniya , Mansion"She corrected.
I grinned , my new home coming back to memory. After a week of spending time together , playing husband and wife( Something I took years to train for , as a matter of fact , thank you very much) , He left for Britain for one of his business meetings.
"Whoa.."I sighed , feeling nauseous in a split second and losing balance as I tried to get up.
"Are you okay?"Sandra got up from the bed .
"Hey , sit back down Aniya" Sandra pulled me down on the bed.
"I'm fine , just a slight second of—"I rushed out of the room to the bathroom unpreparedly puking my guts out. Sandra run after me , joining me in the bathroom.
"Kay , What the heck ?!"She gaped.
