"And that will conclude the lesson of today." The lecturer said

Every students favourite part of the day and on cue the classroom was filled with noise and chaos , the bell ringing after was of no use. I swear this guy sees the future or maybe he never liked school growing up his punctuality when it comes to dismissing us never ceases to amaze.

'Have you ever thought maybe he basically hates you guys' my subconscious mind makes a powerful pointer.

Stepping into the  the hallway it was already filled with chaos and noise as people prepared for game night.I successfully navigated my way in the sea of over excited college students to my locker and pack my books before my locker was shut infront of my face followed by Elena's voice clearly unfazed by my shock.

"Oh my God did you see Jose , he's walking from the gym and oh my God those muscles ,that chin,-" she shuts her mouth as l take a deep breath from her rant

"A warning would have been awesome." I exclaim

"Does he do chin workouts. Cause damn it's illegal to have that chiseled chin." She abruptly stops and looks at m

"Hi to you too. I am so fine you know after last week of missing school and yes my little angel she's doing okay. How you,". Rolling my eyes at her opening the closed locker once again.

"I was rambling right?" She asks with guilt laced in her voice

"I am sorry how's the fever now." She tries to give a half smile apology and she offers me her chocolate as peace offering.

I brush it off as l tell just how fine both Kayla and myself have been as we head towards the parking lot where we find our gay best friend Grayson leaning on my car.

"Looking much better mamacita." He greets me with a cheek kiss and giving one to Elena as well. His handsomeness and voice will make other girls want to change preferable sexuality but trust me and believe l am past that stage. I got eyes and they see things too so don't be too quick to judge me.

"Much better thank you," and l give Elena that 'take notes 'eye and she scoffs in response

"Pep rally today?." He asks typing away in his phone.

"Movie night with Kayla." My response came out automated winced l always use Kayla as an excuse.

"Obviously wouldn't miss Josė's game for anything." She happily nods in his direction like a lost puppy .

"Okay see you tomorrow okay," Grayson walks away,

"That's definitely a booty call." Elena states looking at his figure before it disappeared in the crowd.

"Yep.You  dropping by my workplace after the game."

She nods and bids me goodbye as she makes her way towards the library to probably check out some Mills and Boon books and. l get in my old well taken care of car to pick my little angel from her pre school. Kayla greets me with a kiss that never fails to brighten my day at any time of the day.
.
"Hi mommy." She flashes her million dollar toothless smile

"Hey monkey." I kiss her forehead "how was school." As l buckle her seat belt.

"Oh my God you won't believe what happened today ...."

And she starts to rant about how her day is always better than as we drive towards the diner , my workplace as l happily listen to her voice. Arriving at the place Kayla sprints to Mrs Jackson's office

"Slow down." I yell after her

Exchanging the shift , l notify everyone how packed it was going to be because of the game night and l quickly slipped away from the room before they give a million reasons on what l am missing because apparently game nights were the best part of college according to them.
