Chapter 2: Chapter 2

Confused Boyfriend

Frank's POV

"AAhhhi.....Hi" I said to the very pretty girl but it came in a stammer and she ignored me.

I felt.. embarrassed.

"How has your day been Frank? " The principal, Mrs Megan asked me.

"Very good ma'am" I replied with my gaze-focused on the pretty girl.

"Meet Paulina Brown" Mrs Megan briefly began the introduction.

"Hi" Now the Paulina girl said to me.

She stood up from the chair she was sitting on, faced me and stretched her right hand for an handshake.

I smiled and received it willingly. Oh My Goodness, I swallowed my saliva if not, it would drop.

She is extremely beautiful and touching her soft skin, it's heart chilling.

"Paulina, meet the school senior prefect, his name is Frank " The principal told her.

Paulina took a good look at me and smiled again. Whao! The smile, it reminds me of Angela. Whata Beautiful smile.

"Take her around the school and tell her everything you think she needs to know" Mrs Megan is actually giving me a permission to be alone with her, this tailless marmaid. I just hope I won't collapse?

"Al....Alright ma'am" I responded trying not to stammer then I led her out of the office.

I felt somehow. Should I use the word shy?

So I walked ahead of her but the over beautiful Paulina walked and caught up with me then she held my hand.

I felt cold shiver run down my spine and the hand she held (my hand) vibrated as if electric current passed through it.

It made me stop walking.. She looked at me and smiled: "What is it? " She asked.

Oh My God, her voice.. So sweet and angelic.

What has she done to me?

What did Tyler and George do to me?

What has Mrs Megan done to me?

And what have I done to myself?

She doesn't only look like a marmaid, she looks like an angel too..

No, an angelic marmaid.

"What is it? " She asked me again.

"I.. a..m..fi..ne" I stammered.

"Okay! So where are you taking me to? " She asked me.

"The.. The music-house, so so let's.. go" I continued to stammer.

"Are, are you a stammerer? " She asked.

"No" I blurted.

"Oh Okay! " She said: "Let's talk about random things, well it could be an introduction for a start but let's just talk while you lead the way to the music house and other classes and buildings" She said and I was quiet throughout.

"Just like the principal told you earlier, I am Paulina Brown. I'm a transferred student from Dream High" She said.

"Dream High? That school is far away from here" I exclaimed.

"Yeah, I just moved here with my aunt, so I had to change schools too" Paulina said.

Aw! She's so sweet and Jovial.

"Oh I see" I remarked speechlessly.

"Staring at these tall buildings and the students roaming around, I do hope I'll love your school" She said.

"Of course, you will" I told her.

"Tell me about yourself" She suddenly asked.

"Mmme? " I stammered.

"Yeah, I mean the only thing I know about you is your name, Francis right? "

"No, It's Frank"

"See, I don't even recall your name. Why don't you tell me more about yourself?" She asked me.

I tucked in my hands into my trouser pockets and cleared my throat, then resumed;

"My name is Frank Collins, I am the school senior prefect "

"Then definitely, you are a nerd" She said smiling.

"You can say that again" I said:" We are in the same class" I added not knowing what else to say - this moment.

"Yeah, I know" She bit her lips.

"Here we are, the music house or room, which ever way you prefer to call it" I announced.

"Whao! Beautiful infrastructure and facilities" She commented.

Lol

"The field we passed through earlier before we got here is for gymnastics" I told her.

"I thought as much. Oh My! I love your school already " She weened.

"The painting alone is so attractive"

"I heard the school has been existing since eight years ago and it's being repainted annually" I told her.

"Whao! Whao! "

I stared at her with so much interest, she is more beautiful when she smiles. I hope she will see me too as handsome?

"Show me the library please? " She requested almost pleading.

"Sure, let's go" I said and this time, I held her hand and walked out of the music building.

Oh I so love the touch from her skin.

"My former school, I was the school Liberian" She said and I nodded like a lizard with bone hooked in it throat.

"I love reading books so much but I won't call myself a nerd like you" She said and we laughed as we headed towards the library.

"We are almost there" I announced.

"Less I forget, you are not done telling me about yourself" Paulina reminded.

That's true but I don't know what else to say..

"I... Yeah, what else should I tell you about myself? " I asked her.

"Do you have a girlfriend? " She asked and my eyes widened and almost bulged out.

This angel here is asking me if I have a girlfriend. What should I say? Yes or no?

Flora

"Hey Flora"A voice called,followed by a tap on my shoulder.

I guess it was Mom but why is she waking me up when i can sleep as much as i want to...

"Mom"I muttered and yawned. Then began to stretch my hands.

"Good morning mom"I said rubbing my eyes.

"Mom? "

Now the voice doesn't even sound like my Mom's..

It was a Muscular voice! What? Who could that be?.. The voice wasn't even familiar.I didn't bother opening my eyes. I locked it.

"Flora"The muscular voice called again.

I finally opened one eye and then i opened the second.I almost screamed but he close my mouth with his palm when he observed that i wanted to.. Then i remembered where i was.

"I'm so sorry" I said removing his palm away from my mouth.

He chuckled;"I understand. Just go and prepare breakfast"He ordered and then left my room.

My room?

Yes, My room.

The Housemaid's room.

**********.

Flora's POV

I knocked on his door.

"Come in"He responded.

I opened the door and entered.

Whao!

The room was more than i expected,it was bigger than mine and it painted in purple colour.The colour of the curtin was Purple, his wardrobe was furnished with purple even the bed spread was colour purple.I then guessed that his best colour is purple. That's fantastic. I smiled.

"Are you just going to stand there? "Peter said.

Just then,i realized that i was still standing in front of the door.

"Ohh.."I rushed in.

"There"He pointed at a small stool. I dropped the tray on it.

"What did you prepare?" He asked.

"I fried potatoes and i fried egg"I replied.

"Is it Delicious? "

"Yes, it is"I replied smiling.

"Alright"He suspended what he was doing on his Laptop then drew the stool closer.

"Good morning" I said because i just remembered to.

"Morning to you too"He replied though i thought he wouldn't.

"I'm so sorry for what happened earlier this morning.I had totally forgotten that i wasn't at home"I apologized.

"I already told you that i understood"He said then sipped half of his drink.

"And i'm sorry for preparing breakfast quite late,henceforth,i'll adjust"I said.

" Apology Accepted " He said and stopped eating.

"How about Ma'am?" I asked.

"Mom travelled"

"Ohh yeah, she told me she will"I said.

"so, can you leave now? " He asked kinda feeling uncomfortable.

I guessed i was being loquacious or rather i'm just too inquisitive .

"Sure"I manage to smile then i hurriedly left.

Later

Peter's POV.

"Hey Francis"I called simultaneously waving.

"so you finally came today"Francis said having an handshake with me.

"I never said i wouldn't "I said.

"But you hesitated"He argued.

"Anyways,what about Vincent? "I asked 'cos we three were supposed to run some miles.

"There"He pointed at a distance away which i traced with just my eyes.

"Monica also came"He added.

" What's she doing here? "I asked.

Just then Vincent and Monica started walking towards us.

"She said she wanted to be with you"He told me.

"Is she dumb or something?"

They finally came closer.

"Peter"Monica said hugging me while i stood still.

"You aren't supposed to come too"I said withdrawing my body away from hers.

"Why? "She asked gazing at me.

"Can you even run a mile? "I asked.

"And if i fall, you will raise me up,when i'm tired you will put me on your shoulder.Won't you? "She said smiling.

'What's she saying? "

"Waow!.That's cool"Vincent said then hit me playfully.

"Monica, you should go.I'll come see and you tomorrow"I said.

"No"She insisted.

"Go"I said kinda harsh

"C'mon peter, she wants to be with you.Francis said.

"Peter is it wrong to love you just too much? "Monica muttered as if she was going to cry. I don't really care even if she will.

I didn't say anything else rather than to stare at her for some moment.

"Peter"Vincent broke the silence.

"Let's resume"I said and finally stopped gazing at the uncomfortable figure.

********

Peter's POV

I arrived quite late that evening.

I didn't enjoy the race,Monica ruined it.

I staggered into the living room just immediately Flora opened the door then i laid on a chair.

"I didn't know when you left"Flora complained.

"I'm sorry about that"I muttered even when i'm not supposed to apologize.

"You missed lunch too"She said.

"Get me dinner"I said.

"Besides, where did you go? "She asked.

"Flora, my legs aches. Just get me something to eat then i'll go sleep"I ordered.

"I have pain reliever"She exit instead.. then returned after some minutes.

I laid still watching her drama. She rubbed something i couldn't see clearly on my leg.I m0aned.

"Flora"I screamed and took her hand off my legs.

"What? "

"Just get me food and I'll be alright "I said.

"Hmmn, Ok"She said and went away with her pain reliever or whatever she called it.
