Monae's POV

I need coffee, a hot cup of coffee.

I yanked the sheets off me before getting out of bed. I looked around for something to wear since I was only in panties. After coming back from class yesterday, I stayed up in my room all day long to study my ass off for the online exams we had later in the evening but it lasted through to 11:30 pm and I ended up exhausted afterwards so right after I took my bath, I slipped on panties and climbed straight to bed.

My eyes fell on a bathrobe on the vanity table, I must have forgotten about it last night. I picked it up, slipping it on the same time I put on my slippers and left to the kitchen after I checked the time on the wall clock, it is still 5:50am.

That means most of the people in the house are still in bed, no one will see me in this short bathrobe if I hurry my ass up to the kitchen and get myself a cup of hot coffee to awaken my senses and body which seem to have fallen numb after the stress last night.

School keeps getting stressful everyday as we level up to more advanced stages. I wish I was done with it already and setting up my own business. I threw back in laughter, "look at you, you haven't gotten to level 200 and you're wising for that." I shook my head and entered the kitchen.

Just like I expected, there was no one around so it was just me. I instantly made for the cabinet where Asabrewaa keeps the coffee powder and tea bags and pulled out one coffee bag then went over to the gas cooker.

I removed the water I had boiled from fire onto the marble counter to allow it settle for sometime as I walked to the fridge, taking milk from it and went back to preparing the coffee.

Bringing the cup to my nostrils, I inhaled the smoky and herby scent of coffee, a smile instantly found its way to my lips before I took a sip of it. I moaned, I usually don't make coffee because it isn't something I like so it really isn't my expertise unlike tea but I can say this coffee tastes phenomenal! I couldn't stop myself from gulping it all down and fixing myself another cup.

As I leaned on the island table with my second cup of coffee in hand, sipping, my thoughts travelled to my adopted family. I wonder how they're faring and if they miss me like I do. I'm sure Imogen would and maybe Rex? Yeah, but I'm sad no one has made any effort to get through to me, you know like try to find out if I'm okay, where I am now or how I am doing.

Sadly, nothing of that sort has happened. I haven't crossed part with any of them, not even Imo who knows where my school is located, she could have come over there to check up on me or something but no.

I exhaled heavily, I guess I wasn't as important to her as I thought I was, she didn't consider me a sister like she always told me. Sadness washes over me as it dawned on me, I meant nothing to her all this while when I found a sister in her, someone I could relate as my own though we weren't blood related.

"Nae?"

Oh that voice!

I quickly wiped the tear that had fallen before I spun around to face Michy. What is he doing here? I asked myself as I took in his appearance, it doesn't look like he had just gotten up from bed. I gulped, feeling a wave of excitement rush through me, my face heating up instantly when I saw his shirtless body standing not less than ten steps away from me.

My heart was beating so fast in my chest, it felt like it was going to burst any minute. I have a weakness for muscular sweaty body and this guy was proudly flaunting his in my face.

I continued to stare as swear trickled down his chest to his flat stomach that I wish was mine till they disappeared into.....

Oh shit!
