"Ouuu Owen guess what" Samir taunts me I start to panic screaming 'no' he runs over to him and I run after him Owen turns around with his light brown curls falling ever so perfectly on his face and his face lights up with a smile seeing Samir running towards him. He turns to run away from Samir and we chase each other for 5 minutes until Samir finally gives up and stands still I run up to him and push him down "don't you dare say anything loser" he laughs at me as the teacher walks up to me and yanks my arm to sit me in time out. She was fired the next day for yanking me. When I got back from my timeout I walk over to Imani and sit next to her she looks at me with a 'what was it for this time' type look "he was going to go tell him about the thing that he somehow found out about" she understandingly nods and goes back to her conversation. Samir and Owen walk over to our table and sit across from us "so Zuzu who do you like" my eyes go wide at Samir's boldness I shrug and mumble 'nobody' he laughs at me with a cheeky look "oh that's funny because last time I heard was that you liked Owen" my eyes go wide and so does Owen's "what the heck Samir" Imani sticks up for me and slaps him "where'd you hear that from" I try to remain as calm as I can. "That doesn't matter let's see if Owen likes you back" he taunts at me everyone looks at Owen... -------------- Zuri is finally starting her last year of high school with the people she started with she has always caught everyone's eye but for years only one guy has caught her eye.
