On his way to school Leo couldn’t stop thinking about what just happened, he couldn’t believe that Melissa could do such a thing, although he liked what she did and how it made him feel.
‘Wow Melissa has the perfect body, and anybody would die to be with her,’ Leo thought.
He got to the bus stop and waited for the bus to arrive, he was sitting and waiting for the bus as he mind went back to Melissa; he kept on fantasizing about her and didn’t realize when the bus arrived.
“Are you not going,” a lady said to him from behind as she walked to the bus and entered, that was when Leo looked up and saw that he was the only one at the bus stop and that the bus was about to leave, he waved his hand at the bus driver and urging him to wait as she stood up quickly and entered the bus, he made his way to the second row and sat down.
As he turned his head to the lady sitting by his side and flashed a smile at her.
“Thanks,” he said to her.
“You are welcome,” the lady said.
“I hope you are okay?” she asked.
“Yes, why do you ask?” Leo asked her.
“That’s because you were so lost in your thoughts,” she points out.
“Oh, that, I am good,” Leo replied again, not wanting to tell her anything.
He would go to the grave with what he saw today, and would want to discuss it with anybody not even his mum.
Leo got to his stop and said goodbye to the lady as he came down from the bus and waved again to the lady as he watched the bus leave.
When he got to school the class teacher wasn’t there yet and there were only few persons who had arrived, he went over to his sit and sat down as he rest down his head on his desk.
Leo was already sleeping when someone tapped at his back; he slowly raised his head up and saw Mike his friend smiling at him.
“Hey mike,” Leo said in a whisper and faced him.
“Hey,” Mike took his sit.
Mike’s desk was behind Leo that Leo had to turn around from his own sit so he could face Mike.
“What’s up with you?” Mike asked.
“How do you mean?” Leo answered.
“Why are you sleeping this early, it’s everything okay?”
“Sure everything is fine, I woke up really early today,” Leo said.
“Okay, I thought you wouldn’t be in school today?”
“Why won’t I,” Mike answered.
“That’s because you are never interested in extra classes.”
“Well, I have to be here, because I don’t want my parents to fill that I am unserious,” Mike said.
The class was becoming noisy because more student were trooping coming in, today was different from every other Saturday when they had extra lessons, maybe because exam was fast approaching and everybody wants to pass.
Leo and mike was still talking when their teacher walked into the class, he urged everyone to settle down and bring out their books so he could start his lessons.
The class was quite as the teacher solves algebra mathematics on the chalk board.
After which he gave time class work and them to solve it and submit before the end of the class, Leo was every good at Mathematics that he finished his solving first and submitted it before every other person.
After which the teacher marked the books and made some corrections for those who didn’t get their answers right, by noon he dismissed them, and told them to go enjoy their Saturday.
“I will see you all on Monday, and ensure to read your books this weekend,” he said and left the class.
Mike and Leo walked back to the bus stop where they departed because they weren’t going the same direction.
Leo took the bus home; on getting to the house he went straight into his room and lay down to rest a little before doing his laundry.
Melissa called her mu on the phone and she didn’t pick up, with that she called her dad and waits for him to pick while the phone rang.
“Hello dad,” Melissa said, as soon as her father picked up the call.
“Hello Melissa, I didn’t know you are the one calling, sorry I had to leave the house so early without coming to see you,” her dad said.
“It is okay dad,” Melissa said.
“I want to ask you for a favor,” Melissa told him.
“Go on my baby,” Her dad said.
“I need money to shop, today is Saturday and I would love to visit the grocery store down town.”
“Okay, you go into my room and take the credit card there, you can shop whatever you want,” he told her.
“Thanks dad,” Melissa said excitedly, she had always loved her parents, and was surprised over her dad’s found love for her too.
“You are welcome.”
“And make sure you go with the driver,” Her dad told her.
“Yes I will daddy,” Melissa said, and dropped the call.
She looked at her wrist watch and saw that it was already noon, as she went over to the mirror tied her long her into ponytail and applied lip gloss on her lips, she smacked her lips together making sure the lip gloss blends as she walked over to her wardrobe and took out her hand bag, crossed it over her body, wore her white canvas and left the room.
She went straight to her father’s bedroom and saw his credit card lying on the table; Melissa picked it up and put it inside her bag as she came downstairs to let Catherine know that she was going out.
When she got to the kitchen she didn’t find Catherine, rather she saw Rosita who told her that Catherine was at the back yard speeding clothes on the rope.
Melissa thanked her and went outside to meet Catherine.
“There you are,” she said on getting to her.
Catherine turned and saw Melissa looking beautiful.
“Going somewhere? She smiled at her.
“Yes I am going to the grocery store,” Melissa said.
“Would you want me to get you something?” she asked.
“That would be so nice of you,” Catherine said.
“Okay, see you later,” Melissa hugged her and left.
‘She is so beautiful and I am proud of the lady she is becoming,’ Catherine shrugged and continued with what she was doing.
Melissa got to the front yard and signaled the driver to come take her to the store, she entered the car and the driver drove off.
