Melina - Episode 34

 

From the film house, we got to the house after she has picked one of the Disney series and then we have gotten a bucket of pop corn.

Things were returning to normal, my dad on his feet and her dad almost recovering 

The end of the year exams by the next week.

When we got home, we went to our room, we have been room mates, she changed and got her self into my hoodie, I looked at her and how small she looked inside the hoodie, I chuckled but everything made perfect sense.

I picked up a blanket and then we went down stairs to the sitting room.

We ditched dinner.

We sat on the floor , kept the bucket of popcorn, I watched her go insert the movie plate and then I had time to examine her the thousandth time.

She got back into my laps curling, I covered us with the blanket and then we fixed our gaze on the television even though it felt like I was loosing every bit of maturity.

"Next Friday is my own movie night and we are watching horror" ... I said sticking my tongue out.

"No problem, in as much as  I don't freak out" ...she replied.

We continued seeing the movie, eating popcorn, bringing merry to out door post .

When we slept, we didn't know, I just woke up to see Lina curled in my arms, I pressed my lips on her after watching her beautiful face .

She woke up seconds after our lips disentangled.

"Good morning Riel" . . Joy in the morning, soothing voice in the morning.

"Good morning Lina"..

. I said.

We got up, arranged the house, made breakfast and then headed to the hospital to give them food.

From their we went to school to catch up with Henry and co, exams was Monday.

-----------

Exam day.

"Good luck babe, I know that you will excel, we have read, so believe in yourself" .. I kept on telling Lina.

She had this exam fever, but I was sure she was going to make it better than the last semester that she was stocked with some bunch of schooling drop outs, who never lured her into reading.

Some friends are bad for us though.

We left the house, we went to the hospital first.

"Good morning mommy, good morning daddy" .. She rushed the greeting.

"Morning my dear" .. The mommy replied" keep the food and you guys should get to school as fast as possible so you won't be late for exams.

We left the hospital and go to school an hour before our exams started.

I called henry who told me where they were revising.

We joined them and then fixed lunch after the exams.

-----

"How was the exam Lina" .. I said as we all walked into the pizza hut.

"Easier than I thought, I was the first to finish, it was surprising to my course mates though" .. She replied with much confident.

I smiled.

"Well ours was as good as yours too, three of us left the hall minutes after each other but henry was the first to leave" ..

We settled on a corner, and then we ordered for a big pizza to celebrate it.

I looked at henry and Susan who were side talking, nothing will make me believe that they ain't a thing, even if they try so hard to hide it, but the chemistry in them was shining.

When we were done from the pizza hut, Lina drove, we played songs inside the car and almost shouted the car down.

We dropped them in their places to pick up tomorrow's subject, since we are reading together.

Lina had to convince Susan's parents to allow her stay with us after we had bribed the senior brother Francis.

We reached the house, made dinner and then took our books to the dinning to burn the candle.

We continued this routine till the last paper day, then when we got to the hospital before the last paper, we met Lina's dad with no bandage again.

He was going to be released on Monday.

"Boys, I am celebrating a recovery party by next week Friday, you all should come , it is a round table for just family, and you guys are family, invite your parents over please".. Lina's dad informed us.

"We will" .. We replied before with left the hospital.

It was time to surprise them, my dad's leg and how he had started walking, all thanks to my soul mate.

We reached school, got into our different halls and kicked the hell out of the last paper.

When we got out of the hall my phone buzzed.

I checked and then I saw a message from a foreign e-company.

****** on your last spin and win, you won 50,000 dollars, make available for us your PayPal so we can make instant payment **** 

I tried so hard not to freak out, but the last time I did spin and win, I just did it for fun, I was surfing the internet and then I came across it, I never believed in it, I saw it as normal online scam but I just did it out of impulse.

I sent my PayPal account details to the number without wasting time and everything still looking unbelievable.

***** delivered **** my phone buzzed and I read their message.

I went to my PayPal to check and it was all true.

I didn't jump up, I kept mute even though the cash was driving me crazy, but I wanted it to be a secret too till when it is time to show them.

I walked with them but I was flying, I laughed abnormally to every little joke till we reached the car park to meet Lina.

I hugged her like I never did before, carried her up and spined, I kept her  and planted a kiss on her lips, she was confused but she wouldn't deny my sugar Coates lips.

"Why are you so excited" ... She asked.

"We noticed it, it started some minutes after we got out of the hall" Hillary added .

"Its nothing guys, let's go celebrate the end of year one". I said and we all entered the car and off.
