Melina - Episode 7

 

"Hey bro!! "
"I am back to school you dumb ass just get your Ass here, fetch Hills too " ..
"Welcome back bro, I will be on my away asap, just hope there is chocolates for the boys ".... I replied excitedly.
When I got to Henry's house , I met him offloading, I am always there before Hills who takes his time to prepare to please the ladies, I have started my part time work immediately school just started and I was off for the afternoon.
"How are you bro"
I asked after the long "welcome back " hug.
"I am all good....God you are getting fat, what's the secret, please tell me so I can add it in my to-do list " ....he teased.
"You should be the one I should be asking that .....you mofo!! " ... I teased back.
We were discussing about the holiday, throwing up and down clothes and jumping on the bed, I had missed the play, not too long, the door went ajar and Hills walks in like a newly admitted idiot.
"You both haven't grown up yet " ...he asked laughing and pointing at us.
"Look at this matured baby, come give me a hug bro, I have missed you" ... . Henry replied as I was busy laughing .
I wanted to tell them about me and Lina , but the fear of Henry's reaction didn't allow me to, I remembered his reaction during the exams time, I don't want that again so I kept it to me and me alone.
"I met Susan on my way here and she asks asked of you "..

. Hills cuts the both of us off by surprise.
"What did you just say? "...i asked pretending not to hear, so that he will repeat what he said.
"You both heard me right, I think Henry did, if he did, then there is no need repeating myself "..... he said, as I turned to look at Henry who has this red face already.
"Will you not tell me about that silly girl in this life again or I will be tempted to kick you out of my house "..... Henry threatened.
Hills let out a big laugh which surprised we both, before he said something.
"Okay bro, you are just refusing to accept what is there "...
****************
Henry's POV.....
*****************
When Hills spoke about Susan, I wasn't angry, I just didn't want to have a thing with girls after what my sister has done, I have encountered Susan so many times and she has been a conviction but I don't need my sister in my life.
Outside the fact that she slept with some guy on my parents matrimonial bed, but she has been jumping on every man she meets and I took that to be how every girl behaves.
I have been low key, watching and monitoring Susan, she is smart and I don't see her with boys outside the "hey" " hy", to her I am her worst enemy but I know I have been a secret stalker.
I just couldn't allow her so easily, what if she has just been covering up, I better keep being rude and get rid of nonsense.
***************
Gabriels POV cont....
***************
When Hills made that statement, the reaction Henry gave to it wasn't what I expected, he just silenced it off, I know he was in thoughts but I just overlooked the whole drama.
"So you are kicking off school tomorrow " .. I asked Henry trying to change the topic.
"Yaya, you guys should tell me how boring school has been without me? " ...he said covering up his face with a fake smile, he just wanted us to get rid of the topic.
"School has been Cool, just that hills has been a hot flirt this days, and the lecturers are becoming more annoying, and oh yes!! Your dumb coursemates and their low dramas, imagine your class two couldn't spell "IMAGINATION " ....." I explained laughing
"You must be a clown for including me in this story, by the way flirts are smart people " ....Hills defended himself.
"LMFAO you both are just stupid, well tomorrow let's rock it down there" ... Henry said.
"And guess what?! "...he added
"You know how bad am at guessing? , and you know Hills is bad at guessing too , so tell us " ... I said with a chuckle.
"Nothing big, I got us chocolates ".... he said laughing at our high hopes..
"Bleep you bro!!!!!? " ...Hills couldn't hold his laughter again.
"That's foul language " ... Henry replied, bringing out the chocolates.
"Son of a b**ch, get it here " ...Hills snatched it.
He likes chocolates above all.
When I got home, I have been thinking on wether to open up to my friends, about me and Mels or to just keep quite till everything falls in place , I know that Henry really hates her but I am seeing my self falling for her, she talked to me, she collected, the way she talked and her smiles showed positive vibes, just then one thought came " she has not called yet ", what if she never really meant that day?
Just then my phone light popped and my phone cried.
A strange number and I picked up.
"Hello " ... I said gently awaiting introduction.
"Hello, I am speaking with Gabriel right? "
"yes you are "
"Okay, it's Lina, sorry I didn't call since then"
"Ohh!, Lina, how are you? "
My mind flipped, she called her self Lina.
"I have been okay,  we can have lunch tomorrow please? "
"Erm, okay, what about you choose a venue?
"Erm okay show up let's take ice-cream at the ice-cream hut, 1pm."
"Okay I will be there " ... I Assured her
