Pretty big enough

I wake up to the annoying sound of my alarm and groan. I try to block out the noise by covering my ears with my pillow and go back to sleep. But then my mimi comes in and shakes me awake. I sit on the bed with a pouty face and say, "Please mimi, just give me five more minutes and then I'll get ready for school." I try to flop back onto my bed, but she pulls me off and drags me to the bathroom, shoving me inside. She closes the door, saying, "You can talk to the wall in your bathroom because I'll never believe what you say." Ugh. I grumble and start my morning routine because I know I have no other choice. I come out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped around my body and another wrapped around my hair. I go to my closet, grab my uniform shirt and skirt, and put them on. I was just looking at myself in the mirror and noticed my perfect curves that would make guys drool, but I'm not the type to flaunt my body for everyone to see. I prefer to keep that special for the person I love, even though he happens to be in love with someone else. It's disappointing because I always thought he was the one for me, ever since I was a kid, and never really considered anyone else. I let out a sigh, feeling disheartened. Maybe I'll find someone else in the future, but right now I'm not looking to commit to anyone. I stepped out of my room and instantly caught a whiff of the mouthwatering scent coming from the kitchen. Without a second thought, I dashed towards the source and found her setting the dish on the table. Sneaking up behind her, I attempted to startle her, but before I could even attempt it, she called me out. "Don't even try that, Aurora. Aren't you tired of doing the same thing for years?" Her words made me pout as I hugged her from behind. "Mimi, at least pretend to be scared of me," I pleaded, knowing that she had never once been frightened by my attempts. Shaking her head, she instructed me to sit at the table and finish my meal. Obediently, like a good girl, I devoured my breakfast without leaving a single crumb behind. After devouring that yummy dish cooked by my mimi, I complimented her saying, "It's scrumptious, Mimi!" She flashed a smile, planted a kiss on my forehead, and warned me to be careful. I nodded in response, hugged her tightly, and bid her goodbye before stepping out of the house. As usual, I strolled to school on foot instead of taking a car or bike since I couldn't afford them. I really appreciate this simple life, where I don't feel the need to flaunt my wealth or engage in the so-called activities of the rich. I just prefer leading an ordinary life. Both me and my grandma were there for each other, and we didn't need anyone's help. We had some money from my grandpa and parents, and my grandma was crushing it as a top chef at the best restaurant in city because she cooks like a boss. It was plenty of money to keep us going in our daily lives. Out of nowhere, he jumps right in front of me and totally freaks me out. I was so surprised, my eyes practically popped out of my head. He says, "Hey Aura, want a ride?" I was kind of surprised to see him there on the road. It's not that I wasn't expecting to run into him, it's just that he appeared out of nowhere, right in front of me. I couldn't figure out what he was up to because, to be honest, I had been kinda creeping on him and stalking his moves. But then I tried to forget about him and move on with my life, and bam! He shows up out of the blue, trying to invade my life. We barely even talked during that whole year we studied together, and when he helped me that night, he didn't even recognize me as his classmate. So why all of a sudden is he acting like this, it's like he's stalking me or something. I asked, with a slightly puzzled expression, "A ride? But how, by piggybacking?" He got closer to me and whispered, "If I can't give you a ride, maybe you can ride on me." His not-so-innocent words made my cheeks blush, and I promptly pushed him away, continuing to walk. "Maybe you should ask your girlfriend that," I retorted, and he chuckled, coming up beside me and walking alongside me. "Hey, I don't have a girlfriend, you know," he said. Upon hearing his statement, I turned towards him and gave him a glare as I replied, "Oh, really? Then who was that person you kissed in our class yesterday?" I asked, allowing my voice to sound irritated. His lips twitched into a smirk, and he responded, "Are you getting jealous, Aura?" My glare intensified, and I gritted my teeth before saying, "Why would I be? It's not like I have a crush on you." His smirk grew wider, and he said playfully, "I didn't say that. You're the one who said it." Frustrated, I shouted at him, "Go to hell!" and began walking faster. He was laughing so loudly right behind me. And then he says, "She's not my girlfriend, she's our new chemistry teacher." I couldn't believe my ears, so I looked at him with wide eyes. I mean, how could he have kissed our teacher? He's seriously shameless. I shot him a glare and hurried my pace, and soon enough we reached school. But on the way, he just wouldn't stop talking and managed to annoy me the entire time. I went to my locker and grabbed my stuff, but this guy wouldn't leave me alone for a second. I turned towards him, annoyed, and told him to "go away." He took a step closer and asked "why?" I frowned, about to snap at him, but then my savior showed up and snapped at him, saying "hey boy, I told you not to bother my baby, didn't I?" Upon hearing her, he turned to her and asked, raising his eyebrows as if he couldn't understand, "baby?" "Yeah, baby. Now get lost," she said, grabbing my hand and dragging me to class. Our steps halted when I heard him say... "Hey but, your baby is pretty big enough to make a baby with me," I spun around, my eyes widened in shock. This guy has absolutely no shame, can't believe he said that in front of everyone. I could feel my cheeks burning with embarrassment. I clenched my teeth, frustrated, annoyed as hell, and marched towards him, determined to give him a piece of my mind. But, before I could get to him, he took off running, laughing his head off. I screamed in frustration as he ran away, "You...!" This guy is seriously something. How could he flirt with me like that? I mean, I know he doesn't have a girlfriend, but that doesn't give him the right to flirt with me. He's a Playboy, and I try to remind myself of that because my love for him died when I saw him kissing that girl, no mam, ahh, whatever. So, I need to bury that childhood love and move on. I waited for him for years, and what did I get in return? He was happily living his life, flirting around. 'Get a grip, Aurora,' I try to tell myself. 'Forget him, or even better, hate him. He doesn't deserve your love.' Someone shook me, snapping me out of my thoughts. I looked to the side and saw Elena looking at me with a frown. I cleared my throat and tried to speak, but she raised her hand and said, "You just zoned out, right?" I smiled sweetly and nodded my head like a child. Seeing me, she shook her head and started to walk away. I quickly ran after her, calling out, "Hey girl, wait for me!"
