Zendaya's POV
"Hi Zendaya"
"Hey Regina, you weren't in Microbiology class" I stated
"Yep, I'm sorting things out with my courses but I'll attend subsequently" She responded
"Coming to the party?" She inquired
"What party?" I asked puzzled
"Today's David's birthday, aren't you aware?" She announced
"No, I left the lab immediately after class so I did not hear about it" I confessed
"Okay, it's at 9 pm tonight"
'My curfew is by 9, besides I'm not really the party type" I added
"Are you fun at all? If you're not reading, you're.......I don't even know what you do. Chill girl"
"I'll talk to my parents about it" I stated
"You don't stay in the dorms?" She inquired
'No, I'm off-campus" I answered
"Wow" She appended
"See you tonight" She declared and left
"I'm not attending" I screamed
************************************************
Later in the day
"Zendaya" I heard a masculine voice call
"Oh! Hi Adam" I responded
"Coming tonight?" He inquired
Why is everyone speaking about this party? Well, college should be fun but this is just day two!!!!
"No" I answered
"Why?"
None of your business!!!!
"Curfew is by 9 besides, I have no idea where the party's going to hold" I added
"Richard did not give you information about the address?" He asked
"No, he did not"
"Sorry about that, it's at my house" He added
"Okay, I'll text the address on the class group" He declared
"Okay," I said and left
****************************************
I gave my number to Regina who added me to the group chat.
Regina added you to the X generation
What a weird name
Richard changed his name to Werewolf
I'm not surprised, this guy is a freak
Werewolf: The arrangement still stands
Adam: No.5 Brad Street, adjacent Baptism Church
Regina: I see you're online Zendaya. Changed your mind?
Zendaya: No, still not coming
Werewolf: No one invited you
Adam: Richard????? Be polite
Werewolf: I did not say anything wrong
Zendaya logged out
That Richard of a jerk, I detest him. He insulted me about my bike saying" Do you really own this?"
"Of course, and what's the issue with that" I responded
"This is....."
"Hold it right there. Look, I don't know your problem in life but I advise you to stay out of my business. It's not your bike, go your way and I'll go mine." I stated
"You sure have a lot of guts" He appended
"Let me make this clear to you, I do what I want to. And about the CD class, I'm not leaving. In your own best interest, stay out of my way"
"Okay, I'll see how you do in class" He stated and left
"Trash" I muttered
I may be a cool-headed nerd, but no one insults me and goes scot-free.
************************************************
Time: 7: 10 PM
"Zendaya, we're expecting you downstairs" My mum shouted
I looked at my watch, 7:10 wow, time flies so fast, I've been reading since I returned from School. I did not even have lunch. I'm not hungry, stored glucose is doing its work.
"Coming mum" I responded
Back to my family's tradition, we're having dinner together
(Downstairs)
"Have you been hiding all day?" My mum queried
"No, just reading" I responded
"Look, I'm not saying you shouldn't read but cool down. You've been in your room for five hours, reading" She declared
"Okay, okay" I added
"Hey dad, I've not seen you..."
"You were reading, I didn't want to disturb you"
"Okay" I answered
Reading is part of me, I do it every day. Everyone should, not attend parties every night
"Are you attending your coursemate's party?" My mum asked interrupting my thoughts
"What? How did you know?" I asked suspiciously
Are you stalking me?" I added
"You know the mother we have, she knows everything. She should have studied psychology" Kenzie commented
My dad laughed
"I'm not stalking you. I know better than to do that. I saw a message when your phone beeped in the afternoon, so I kind of read it" She replied
"That's not fair" I whined
"Sorry about that but I think you should attend it" She stated
"Weren't you the one who stated the rule about curfew?" I asked
"Yeah, but you should make a great impression. Be sociable, you're too cultured" She added
"That was unexpected. Anyways, don't check my phone without my permission, that's snooping" I appended
"Okay, let's have dinner. Kenzie do the honors and pray" My mum declared
