“So you’re telling me you met a super hot stranger that’s probably around our age and there was another hot guy that pulled him away?”,Alicia asked getting excited. “Yeah he was so hot and he looked sexy.” “Ooh spicy I guess Cody isn’t the only hottie”, Alicia said teasing Grace. “Yeah whatever”, Grace said rolling her eyes. “Mira did you at least get to know him.” “His name is Greyson.” “Greyson short for Grey”, Alicia said waving her hands in the air. “Honestly, Mira you messed up big time you could have at least found out his school”, Alicia said sounding playfully disappointed. “Yes I know”, I said fake crying and rubbing my eyes. “Let’s just hope we meet again maybe this might be destiny.” “Yh from all the Cinderella Mira has been watching why won’t she sound like this”, Grace said giggling as her phone rang. “Hi dad I’m still with my friends”, she said looking at us. “Right now? Ugh! I’m coming”, she said ending the call looking pissed. “Sorry my dad said he needs me so I guess we would meet later.” “Sure no problem we still have tomorrow to hang out a bit”, I said checking my phone for the time. It’s 5:45 and Alicia’s mum hadn’t called good at least she wasn’t being paranoid today but I guess Alicia was a bit time conscious. “Mira actually I wanted to spend some time with my family you know Sundays are like a bit choked so I think I might bail out.” “Oh that’s fine maybe we could go after school because we still have other things to do.” “Yeah maybe I will see you later you know how my mum gets when I’m not back home by 6.” “Sure we would see later”, I said sipping on my drink as she walked away. I opened my phone and scrolled on t****k for like about an hour forgetting I still had to go home. It was almost 7 and mum hadn’t called. Mum was always chill with all of us so she wasn’t really bothered unless I wasn’t back home before 12am. It was like mum was born to be the way freer parent though my dad was chill not just as chill as mum. “You need company?”, a voice said from behind interrupting my thoughts. It was the guy I met earlier Greyson. “I don’t know.” “Mind if I stay here?”,he said pulling a chair to sit. “No you are free.” “I didn’t get to introduce myself. I am Greyson and my friends call me Grey.” “Nice to meet you Grey I am Mirabella and my friends call me Mira”, I said feeling a bit shy because this was someone I was drooling all over like few hours ago. “Nice so Mira do you play any sports or have any interests?” “I am actually into dancing I don’t do sports”, I said giggling a little. “You can show me your moves.” “No not here.” “It’s fine I always wanted to know how to dance but you know dancing isn’t for everyone so I stuck to playing football. So when did you learn?” “At 5 I started with ballet classes then I stopped for a while and went for dance lessons at 8 so I have been dancing my whole life.” “Where was I when you learnt all this?”, he said sounding playfully annoyed. “It’s kind of stressful so your probably lucky you didn’t have to juggle school work and dance lessons,” I said as I looked at my wrist watch. It was already 8pm and I had to get back home. “It was really nice meeting you Grey. I need to go home maybe we could meet some other time.” “Yeah can I have your number?”, he asked as I quickly put it on his phone. “Here you go”, I said rushing out of the mall to find an Uber. Before I left I overheard Grey’s friend talking to him. “Who’s that fine shyt? She looks oddly familiar.” I walked faster cos I didn’t want to be introduced and I was a bit flustered.
