Chapter 3 Maria

Chapter three

"I'll be going home soon". Maria said. She was already done with writing her notes. She took her notes to her locker.

.

"Please wait for me, let's go together. Kylie was still writing her notes. I'll also take the bus, my mom is too busy today so she won't be able to pick me up" Kylie said.

"Okay then, but please hurry up, don't wanna get home late".

When Kylie finished writing, she arranged her books and we left the school for the bus station.

"So will you still be going to Harvard University"? Kylie asked.

"Of course; you know it's my dream to attend Harvard and become a medical doctor" I chuckled. The fact that my parents promised to send me to Harvard always made me happy.

"How about you Kylie, what University would you like to attend?,I remember you told me Landville University or have you changed your mind"? I asked.

" Uhmm... I don't know for now. When I told my parents they said the tuition fee is very expensive and you know that recently my parents have been facing some financial problems" Kylie told me.

"My dad got fired from his job and it really affected him and everyone so for the meantime I don't want to bother him" Kylie further said.

.

I noticed she was getting emotional already, so I decided to change the topic.

"Just have faith and pray" I told Kylie then I hugged her to comfort her.

"Thanks ria" she sobbed.

"Don't worry, I'm here for you" I replied.

We talked about a lot of things till we got to the bus station. When we arrived there was no bus so we had to sit and wait for the next bus to stop.

The bus finally arrived and we got in. I got to my destination first.

"Bye Kylie" I waved as I came down from the bus.

"Bye Maria" she replied.

My house was not far from the bus stop, it only took about 8 -10 minutes to walk.

It was already late so I tried to walk quickly.

I was walking fast with a mind full of hunger when I heard someone shout.

"Hey, beautiful wait please"! he shouted

I turned; but I tell you that was a mistake, I think it was kind of a reflex action. I didn't want to be rude or anything so I decided to wait for him.

The young man approached me. He had brown hair and was also tall. He was light skinned, with a cute face.

"Not bad, but not my type" I thought.

"My name is Will I live two blocks down that road; he pointed at the road but I didn't bother to look.

" None of my business" I thought.

"You are very beautiful" he complimented me with a smiling face. "I see that you always take this route everyday around this time," he said.

" So you've been watching me" I said with a not too loud voice.

"No no it's not what you think, I work around here and I'm always seeing you, I'm not watching you" he said with a smile.

"Okay then if you say so and thanks for the compliment" I said.

"So can we be friends"? wil asked

"Sure" I replied

"Can I please have your phone number"? he pleaded.

"I don't have a phone" I told him with a straight face.

He looked at me suspiciously and said "you're lying".

The thought of not having a phone always changed my mood. "I said I don't have a phone".

"I know you're lying," he huffed.

"Look, believe whatever you want!!" I snapped and walked away.

I didn't turn back as I walked away, I just looked forward till I left his sight.

I was kinda embarrassed, I blamed myself for stopping to reply to him in the first place.

I walked home in a pissed off mood.

I walked in, still pissed off. "I'm home" I said as I headed to my room.

"Welcome princess" my dad replied; "how was school today"?

"School was okay, nothing unusual happened", I answered as I left to my room. I pulled my uniform and took a hot shower.

"Dinner time"!! My mom shouted.

"I'll be down soon" . I replied.

I put my clothes on and left my room. I headed to colys room first.

I had to knock on the door because the door to his room was always locked.

When I got to his room I knocked.

"Who is there?" he asked.

"It's your dear sister" I answered him.

He didn't say anything for like 10 seconds.

"Open the door"!! I yelled as I knocked on the door. "What do you want"? he asked as he opened the door.

" I wanna see you, I miss you" I teased him.

"Oh please cut that crap out" he said with a disgusted look.

"You've not answered my question yet, why are you here?'' he asked again.

"I know you and you hardly come to my room unless you need something....." he asked.

I smiled as I walked to sit on his bed.

"Well mom and dad have something important to say over breakfast. Do you know what it is?" I asked.

"How would I know, if anyone should know first if anyone should know first it's supposed to be you, because you're their favorite child" he taunted.

I smiled.

"Well you always come home earlier and I was thinking you must have heard something" I said.

"Well I didn't". If that's all you have to say you can leave", he opened the door.

" Why are you being cranky this morning?" I asked him.

"None of your business, just leave my room so I can dress up" he cranked

"Whatever...."I stood up and left his room.

He slammed the door on my face.

You're so rude I yelled at him as I kicked and bagged the door.

He is soooo annoying.

"Ugly ass, I'm sure you enjoy spoiling my mood"!! I shouted as I walked away angrily.
