"Bella, I think we should get our stuff ready " Joshua said still looking at his wrist watch and she turned to look at him "it's almost time to go home" he said with a smile looking at her "oh really" Bella said and looked at the wall clock and turn to him "okay, I should start packing my bags and what about you" Bella said " I will go do same " he said and went to his seat to get his stuff and met his friends talking and after getting his stuff ready he joined the conversation and after a while he thought of looking at Bella to see what she was doing and he caught her starring at him and she couldn't hide it so, she smiled at him and Joshua return the smile with a beautiful smile accompanied with a wink which made her smile shyly and then he continued with the conversation he was having with his friends. Bella didn't stop starring at him and he caught her so many times. then precious and Vivian came along and they started talking. Joshua's gaze was still on Bella seeing her smile softly made his smile grown wider on his face and he wasn't paying attention to what they were discussing and that drew Frank and victor's attention and they looked at the direction that Joshua was looking and they saw Bella talking with her friends and they both smiled "Dube, are you listening to me at all" he saw that Joshua was distracted "Yes, I'm with you" his attention was back to what they were discussing and few moments later it was already time to go home and Bella and her friends stood up and walked out of the class room. "Do you mind if I walk with you" Joshua said standing by the door post with a smile she turned around to see who was asking "Joshua......" she turn to her friends looking at them "I......I......I....." still looking at her friends and she didn't know what to say, whether she should go with him or not "No, she won't mind " Vivian said looking at precious with a nasty smile "infact, we are out of here" Vivian concluded dragging precious by the arm and they both left leaving Bella and Joshua there."Are you waiting for someone" Joshua said looking around "No" Bella responded "so, shall we?" he said gesturing for her to move along "yes" she smiled and went ahead and he followed closely and the both left the class premises and walked straight to the car Park "where is your car parked " Joshua asked looking around "My driver won't be coming to pick me up today" she said "so, how will you get home" he said looking curious "I already booked a. ride home . it will be here soon" she said "I won't allow that" he stood in front of her "let me bring you home... you're more save with me." he said "Joshua, no it's going to tell on you and I...." he cut in "I'm not asking you... I'm telling you" he said and those words felt like cold water running down her spine and his voice was so confident and demanding and she couldn't say anything more "My car is parked there" he pointed to the direction his car was parked and held her hand in his and they both walked to his car.
