1105 Words
"O my God! I am late" I exclaimed in realization as my sleepy eyes flew wide open, the wall clock ticked in front of me. I quickly jumped from the bed, my eyes scanning my room as I gazed in confusion. Quickly, I entered the bathroom, glared at my reflection in the mirror with my early morning scattered hair staring right at my face. Ignoring it, I picked up my toothbrush and brushed my teeth, quickly, I undressed and took a run-up shower. After bathing I decided to wear a blue pair of jeans and a white turtle neck top. With my fingers wrapped around my hairpin, I walked towards my mirror, packed my hair in a bun, and placed the beautiful butterfly hairpin at the side of my hair, my lip stretched in a smile on how lovely it looked. Diverting my gaze away as I walked towards the bed, I picked up my bag, placed it on my shoulder, and walked out of my room closing the door behind me as I heard my sister's voice down the dining room. "Sandra, I packed some food for you, you didn't have breakfast," Kate said handing my food to me as I got closer to her. With a smile on my face, I placed it inside my bag and walked towards the front door, my eyes on my brother whose attention was stuck in his phone. A car horn drew my attention, I looked out of the window and saw Charles waving at me. I waved back, turned to my sister with a teasing look on my face, she laughed and walked towards me, "Charles decide to pick us up today, come on, let's go" she gestured turning the doorknob, and stepped outside. I followed Kate behind and watched her as she got into the front seat with him while I opened the car door and sat at the passenger's seat. Thankfully we got to school on time due to Charles and I was grateful for that. I quickly walked towards my locker, took out my textbook, and ran into my class. I was a minute late for my history class, I sighed glancing at my wristwatch, with my friend's eyes on me, I entered the class, apologize to my teacher, and went towards my seat. Pearl looked at me giving me the "Why are you late?" sign. I just smiled and focused on my class. After class, Pearl walked up to my seat with a funny expression on her face. "You slept off right," she asked laughing. I laughed back with a pen in my hand as quickly close the history textbook on my desk. "Yeah" I replied adjusting my hair. Stylishly, I glanced at Bella who stood in our class doorpost talking to our teacher. Minutes later, she walked towards us announcing that there will be a history play at the school theater hall next week and our teacher wants her to take the leading role in the play. Well, Pearl and I were not surprised, it's not a new thing for Bella. Bella informed us that after school activities today she will have to wait behind for practice. As we chatted, our English teacher walked into the class, we knew it was time for business, so Bella and Pearl walked back to their seat, our class became silent as we stared at the lady before us. Everything went fast and closing hour came by, Pearl and I decided to stay with Bella at the school theater hall. I called Kate to inform her about it and to also tell mum that I will come home late, of course, she was fine with it. During practice, With our hands crossed, Pearl and I became bored and hungry, we decided to go to a nearby burger shop not far from our school and get snacks. Pearl kept on discussing Mr. Mike and their pleasant date. "When he looked at me, honestly I felt like jumping on him and kissing those gorgeous lips of his, "she said dreamily. I laughed "Chill girl, why do I get this feeling that you only lust after him" I raised an eyebrow in defense. Pearl stopped and glared at me "I don't care if it's lust or not, I just want to get things done with him, call me desperate, I don't care," she said and we both laughed. We walked into the shop, bought the burger, and head back towards our school. With our attention fixed on our discussion, the road was busy with racing cars. A few meters away from our school, we heard a car horn beside us which drew our attention. With weird expressions, Pearl and I looked towards the direction the noise came from. Lo and behold, a familiar figure processed out of the car, a ravishing handsome figure that was smoking hot and glancing at him felt like a lightning thunderbolt. My eyes enlarged in surprise as he became visible, "It is him...yes him, the mysterious guy from my dream!" I screamed to myself in total astonishment. He got out of his car and head towards us, I could not breathe for that moment as I stared at him, who is this strange guy that makes me feel this way, I don't even know him! Each step he took made my heart race faster, it was like he walked in a low motion, each step felt like several hours passed by. He got closer to us, smiled cheerfully as he revealed his white dazzling teeth. Still uncomfortable, I manage to smile back but Pearl was cheerful towards him as she greeted him and shook hands with him so freely. "Hi stranger, how can we help u?"Pearl asked smiling. "Well.." he said with his deep muscular voice. Yes!!..that voice...I heard it in my dream. I inhaled deeply as I felt a knot in my stomach. I tried to wake myself up as I twisted each finger but everything happening right now is so real. He looked at me with some expression written in his blue eyes, an expression that I can't detect what is, what is he trying to say to me? Does he know my name?, What is he doing here?. All these questions ran through my mind as I looked up at him, his full eyebrows, tighter chin with a devilish smile on his face. Is he smiling or everything is just my imagination. I couldn't tell, his eyes were trapping my soul as he glared at me, I felt lost wondering what this bizarre guy wants from a girl like me.
