**********
(Emily's POV)
I got home after a long drive from school and rushed to take my bath, Coming from home everyday was really stressful..
I thought of getting an accommodation with Debbie and we spilt payment of bills.
" I will discuss that with her tommorow " I said to myself
I was having my bath when my phone rang, I had not dried my body so I left the call.
" I will check who called when am done" I thought
*******
(Jasper's POV)
I got to my lodge but I couldn't stop thinking of the beauty I saw . She made me feel like the old me.
" Let me check up on her" I said as I dialed her number
It rang but she didn't answer so I assumed she was busy, so I stop calling so I won't disturb her.
A text from Debbie distracted me.
"Hey babe wassup"
"What do you want?"
" Are you still angry with me?"
" So tell me who is Daniel?"
" His just my friend"
" Just your friend and you slept with him?"
"Don't you trust me?"
"Trust? Are you seriously talking about trust now?
" Am not in the mood for this"
Debbie quickly went offline after sending her last message. I was so angry and felt betrayed
" How could Debbie do this to me" I cried
I threw some punches in the wall but a call distracted me from doing more damage to myself.
I looked to see who the caller was
"Emily"
I wasn't in the mood to talk to her because I didn't want to pour the anger I felt on her.
*******
(Emily's POV)
Immediately I was done bathing I reached out to check who called. It was an unknown number so I dialed the number again to know the identity of the caller.
" Who knows it might be my Destiny helper" I thought
It rang but there was no answer so I left it.
I went to dress up and cook something I could eat.
It was already 7pm when I was done with everything so I decided to come online to reply messages and chat with whoever that was online.
The first message on my chat list was from the same number that called earlier. I opened it and it read
"Halo Emily, it's Jasper Sorry I missed your call earlier"
I jumped for joy seeing the message and held myself from screaming my lungs out.
" He finally texted me" I said
He was online so I thought of making my move.
" Hi, Jasper
(with a smile

How are you
doing?
Am fine
and you?
Am not so fine
that's why am
online so that
I could chat with
you.
My eyes opened in shock, I had to process the words carefully and read them word by word to ensure I wasn't seeing things.
" He just started having feelings for me" I shouted as I jumped on my bed. I felt my phone vibrated and saw another message from a random guy , I just hissed and quickly replied Jasper
Am glad to hear
that but chatting
with me is not
free.
(Smile emoji)
How much
is it?
Just 5 dollars
per conversation
(Laughing emoji)
Your really
funny Emily
So why are
you not happy?
It's just my
girlfriend or
should I say my
soon to be ex
after today.
" This message deserves loud music" I thought
I quickly grabbed my headphones and started playing some banging music.
I felt like I had finally achieved something great.
Are you still
thinking about her?
Yeah, my heart
doesn't want her
again after
everything she
did.
"This calls for a celebration" I said to myself
The next message he sent made me realize he definitely was having a crush on me.
Where do you
want to go
tomorrow? I was
thinking
Somewhere private
and alone. Just
you and me
That's okay
by me
I replied immediately to prevent him from thinking it was a bad option.
I will call you
tommorow.
Sleep tight Beautiful
" He called me Beautiful " I smiled to myself
Surely this guy was already into me .
" Maybe I will start counseling guys I have crush on" I thought and smiled sheepishly
I was so happy that I couldn't reply the last message he sent .Thank God he wasn't online again.
" Am a bad girl" I screamed and this time my mum came banging at my door.
I could hear it despite the earphones I wore
" Hope she didn't hear the bad things I said" I prayed silently opening the door
" Are you gradually going insane" my mum asked
" No ma " I said facing down to show I was remorseful.
She left immediately and I locked the door and heaved a sigh of relief....
