I woke up the second day as the morning breeze blew into my room
I sat on the bed and stared at our beautiful garden through the window
I was relieved and happy
I stood up from the bed and went to the bathroom
I had my bath and left the bathroom
I dressed up and was set to go to school
I carried my bag and left the room
I walked downstairs and met my Parents seated on the chair in the dining room
I smiled as I saw them
I walked to where they were and greeted them
How are you dear; my mum asked
Im fine ma, I said
Have your seat; my dad said
Ok, I nodded and sat down
I have something to discuss with you; my dad said
OMG, I hope its not about yesterday oh; I thought staring down
What is it sir? I asked
You mum told me everything about him; He said and my eyes widened
Gosh, I hope he doesnt oppose it; I thought squeezing my face
You love him right? He asked
What? I dont believe this; I thought
Yes, I nodded
Well, I cant tell you not to love because you are grown enough to know what is right or wrong so I give you the permission to do whatsoever you feel is right but on one condition; He said
One condition? I asked
Yes, always remember the child of whom you are, dont let love lead you astray, know how to control your feelings in some circumstances, and remember that all guys are not to be trusted, lastly, dont use your body as a sex machine that is, do not have sex until your wedding night. Is that clear? He asked
Yes dad, I promise not to go against your words; I said
Alright dear, give me a hug; He said gesturing her hands for a hug
I stood up and went to hug him
I love you so much dad; I said as I hugged him
I love you too daughter; He said
We unlocked from the hug and I went to where my mum was
She just keep smiling
I hugged her too as tears rolled down her eyes
Lily, please dont forget you are our only child and always make us proud as you use to do; my mum said in tears
I promise you mum; I said cleaning her tears
We unlocked from the hug and we all started eating
After we were done eating and I was about taking my drugs, we heard a knock on the door
Its Nicky; I thought
The maid went to open the door and truly its Nicky
She smiled as she saw me on my uniform
She ran to hug me
Baby, thank God you are going to school today; she said
Yes oh, I thank God, I really missed school; I said unlocking from the hug
So are you set to go? She asked
Hmm, let me take my drugs first; I said
Ohh, thats true; she said
Good morning dad and mum; Nicky said facing my parents
How are you dear? My mum asked
Im fine ma; she replied
Thanks for yesterday; my dad said to her
No problem sir, she said smiling
Lets go, I said to her
Oh, you are through right? She asked
Yeah, I said carrying my bag
Bye; I said to my parents
Bye dear; my dad said
Take care guys; my mum said as we opened the door to go
We walked out of the house and entered the car
The driver drove away

After some minutes, we got into the school compound
The driver parked at the car park area and we got down from the car
We walked into the school building and after some minutes, we got to the class
As I entered, I stared at the direction of my seat
Wow, Scott is already seated
I smiled as I saw him
He also stared at me and smiled back
I walked up to my seat and sat down
Welcome baby; He said
Thanks; I said
Not long after, the lecturer entered and started teaching
I didnt really focus on the lecture because I could sense Scott staring at me
He kept staring at me in the class
I faced his direction and he quickly stared away
OMG! His stares is really killing me; I thought
Not long after, the electric bell rang and the lecturer walked out
Thank God its break already; I thought and heaved a sigh
Immediately; Nicky walked to my seat and sat on my table
Good afternoon; she said to Scott
Afternoon, how are you doing? He asked her
Fine; she replied smiling
She then stared at me
Baby, lets go have our lunch; she said to me
No; Scott cut in
What? I asked facing him
She is having lunch with me today; Scott said
When did we decide that? I thought squeezing my face
What? Really? Nicky asked facing me
I just stared at her
I dont even know what to say
Well, alright; I will eat alone then; she said standing up
She walked out of the class
I stared at him surprisingly as she walked out
When did we decide that? I asked squeezing my face
He just smiled and stared away
Lets go; He said holding my hand
I was really startled
Hey, drop my hand please; I said to him
No, he said standing up
Gosh, this guy is really making it hard for me; I thought
I also stood up and followed him behind
We walked out of the class and I heaved a sigh
We got to the elevator and entered
After some minutes, the elevator stopped and opened
We walked out of the elevator and turned to the direction of the canteen
We got to the canteen and picked a seat
We sat down facing each other
We brought our food and started eating
Suddenly, he picked up a meat from his plate and placed at in front of my mouth
Gosh, everyone is watching
I stared at him squeezing my face
Please baby, my hands are paining me; He said
Gosh, this guy want to kill me, my heart is really beating fast;I thought
I opened my mouth and he placed the meat into my mouth
Perfect; he said smiling
Ahh, he said opening his mouth
OMG, this guy will not kill me; I thought squeezing my face
I also picked up a meat and placed it into his mouth
I feel so shy now
Lets go on a date; He said and my eyes widened
The fork dropped from my hand immediately
What? I asked
Lets go on a date; He repeated smiling
Gosh, that word really shocked me...
