KISS ME OR KILL ME

JOHN'S TEXT

The past few days after what happened at John's place were not that easy for me and John didn't reach out to me not even through a call. If grandma wasn't there for me at every end of the day after returning from work I would have totally broken down,my mind was filled with questions and I got confused with my feelings for him. " Eliza, if something is meant to be, it will be!"she said, and that kind of kept me going for the next days. At work, my boss, Mr. Allan realized I had become so silent he then gave me a day off, he then said " Ms. Elizabeth, do you mind me driving you home? ",I had no chance of accepting his kindness because I didn't want to mix my boss into my personal life. "Please, I insist, you seem stressed, " he begged and I had nothing to do but accept his offer. On the way home in Mr. Allan's car, it was too quiet because we did not have anything else to talk about besides work, then we arrived at my house, "Have a good day, Mr. Allan!" I said, " Take good care of yourself, Ms. Elizabeth," he replied, then he drove off.

On opening the door, my grandma was surprised to see me, " Did something happen at work? ", What's the matter, Eliza?" she asked, I ran to her, hugged her and cried out my pain. Grandma consoled me, while lying on her lap I did not realize how sleep took me till i woke up at four o'clock that evening I had a shower, then cooked a meal as grandma had a chat with her friend, Mr. Tom who was old but quite funny his house was just next to ours and by the looks of it they enjoyed each others company very much. Meanwhile, I had my meal, went up stairs and laid on my bed in thoughts, that's when I got a text, it was surprisingly from John," Can I meet you at the coffee shop? please!!! " it read. In no time I was already on my way to the coffee shop, I really wanted to hear what John wanted to tell me and I really needed answers to erase my confusion. I found John already seated inside the shop though he seemed disturbed in his mind from a distance, I then walked to him and sat right opposite him. " Am sorry I couldn't reach out to you for the past days, I have been so busy lately, "he said, I on the other hand kept quiet and calm, stared at him, all I needed to hear was about how wrong it was to have had a kiss with him, he then said," I want us to just stay good friends." And I nodded my head yes because I clearly got it, John did not want a relationship with me. We had our coffee and I said " Goodbye,John! " and headed home. I had now really known my stand in John's life.
