Falling for the enemy

Forced partners

"You know that my new seatmate... Frank"

"Yeah"

"Wassup... You like him, or he's admiring you..."

Which of the above?

"You should trust me"

"You are something else"

"I lent him my Anatomy jotter...'"

"Ohh "

"What about your seatmate"

"You mean that rude boy"

"Rude?"

"Yeah"

"What did he do to deserve that harsh word"

Emm... You know first impression matters?

"So the other day he didn't even bother to ask who was sitting next to me..."

He just sat there without even a 'hi',

Very rude and annoying"

"Ouch, so that's it..."

"Is it not worth annoying"

"For me.."

'No'

"Why"

"Because maybe he wasn't in a good mood'"

"Never still, everyone has their personal issues"

"Hmm...true my dear"

*************

"In our next lesson we are going to have practicals"

"Note that we are dealing with humans

now not as usual and your partner is your seatmate"

Whispers erupted the class after Prof.Lawson made the statement.

"Silence...." he yelled.

Silence returned to the class as if it had gone for a break a few moments ago.

(At the cafeteria)

"What!!!"

"I can't believe Prof. Lawson would make that kind of combination for our practical"

"It's not funny, stop laughing" Ellie said annoyed as Yvonne tried not to laugh.

"So I'm going to work with that rude boy who almost behaves like a sadist"

"Here he comes" Yvonne whispered ...

"Write your number here, so that I can at least reach in arrangement for our practical"

'Don't you have manners' - yelled frustrated Ellie.

'Imagine the guts'

Eddie just turned away and left"

"You see, I told you, very rude and..." Ellie stammered

"Chillax..." Yvonne tried calming her best friend

"You are already stammering"

"Why don't you go to the hostel first"

"Let me have some things sorted out"

"Actually... this is her number..."

Yvonne said handing a note to Eddie

"Ohh, I was already planning to have a C in the course already"

"Thanks".

"Can you even imagine that girl"

"I, Eddie want to ask her for her number"

"And she was reacting like someone that had lost her sanity"

"But you ask her for her number to ask her out"

"Mee"

" never, she's your crush not mine"

"Maybe she wasn't in a good mood or something happened"

"I knew it, I knew you were going to defend her already"

"lover boy"

"You know what, forget it. It's my fault for asking"

*************

Did you give her a call"

"Emm, no I think I have misplaced the paper"

"Thanks.."

"Don't worry about that"

Babe what's wrong?

Yvonne asked

"I feel so weak and cold"

"Sorry and I forgot your hoodie in the hostel"

Eddie said

'if it's possible for you guys to meet, he's not going to be around by tomorrow

"I'm not even in the mood for his bullsh*t"

"He said he had an urgent call from home"

"Hmm, since when did you turn his P.A"

"Whatever"

. . . . . . .

"I don't think I can make the meeting with Ellie today"

'Excuse me'

as he tried to get Yvonne's attention.
