Melina - Episode 8

 

Was supposed to leave work at 12pm, but my replacement wasnt at work on time, she came at 15minutes to 1pm, before I had to go home to prepareprepare, I knew I was going to be latelate, but I tried to be fast so I can catch up, with hope that she is not gonna come early based on her Calibre .

At exactly 1pm, I had her call, she was sitting there already .
"Hello gabriel whatsup?"...her sweet voice went on air just as I was about to put on my shoes.
"Lina , are you there ?"....I asked expecting her to give a negative answer .
"I have been here since 10minutes to 1pm though , where are you ?" ...she surpried me, I believed the school notorious Melina will fix a date with me and be there earlier before time .
"The lecturer didn't finish class on time, so I was delayed, I am sorry, I am on my way though, I should be there before the expiration of five minutes, don't be angry "...I stated.
"Okay, take your time "
I hurriedly left the house to the ice cream hut, when I got there, she was in a fine tight blue gown, she dressed like a goddessgoddessf, it was obvious she dressed to impress, but she really impressed, her dress showed her amazing body curves, her makeup was peferct, I have never seen her this beautifully made up before .
"Hey" ...She broke my thoughts with her breath taking voice.
"I know am a bad person, but I can explain, sorry for standing you up a lil, the lecturer....."
"Don't worry Gabriel, the good thing is that you are here now, sit let's take ice cream and talktalk, you are welcome " ...she cuts me amidst my words.
"But why the sudden change of attitude", I kept on asking my self, I was not even sure if she remembered I was the guy at the walk way ," maybe she doesn't know ".
"So what do you take, I asked her ?"...I had carried small money .
"You don't have to get something for me, I brought us out so keep calm and allow me handle my date " ...she said smiling .
"So what do you take " ... She asked, I can read her lips and imagine it on mine, I imagined how soft it would be, and then I come to my senses .
"Erm any chocolate ice cream, I will take "..

. I managed to say .
"I like chocolate ice creams too , we have something in common I think "...she said as she stood up to go get us ice cream .
As she was walking to get the ice cream, I took my time to take a good look at her, and ohh she is very beautiful, her catty walking steps, everything about her was amazing, I never believed I will have a girlfriend real soon, and I never imagined falling for someone I had a bad encounter with in the first meeting.
"So tell me, about you? "..she asked starting a conversation.
"Well there is nothing interesting about my life, I am just a normal student, I am 19 though, I do civil law and I have just two friends here, I seldom relate with people, people are dumb shaa ..." I explained avoiding saying about my family and my father .
"What about your parents and siblings ?"...she asked, the question I was praying she doesn't ask .
" they are finefine, they are just civil servants working hard to get their only son through school " .....I said before moving on o ask questions so that she doesn't ask further questions.
"So tell me about you ?" ...I asked
"I am Lina, I think that sounds good, even though it's better when it is coming from you, I am 18, I am here for history and international relationship, I have two female friends, I am naturally rude but my hatred for boys grew for some reason shaa, boys are wicked though, and I don't relate with people much because I feel we ain't in same class "....she stated smiling .
"For some reason ?" ...I asked with curiosity.
"Yes , I have had a boyfriend but he never loved me , he had the guts to bring a girl to the house I rented for him, I helped him get a job through my father's connection and he paid me back with sleeping with a low class girl, since then, I have this believe that boys are ungrateful".....she stated bitterly .
"So that's why you acted like that towards me at the walk way the day I stepped on you ?"..I asked smiling, the look on her face showed she doesn't remember.
"Wait , you were the guy I and my friends assulted at the walk way ?' ..she asked, her face on the ground, I could see her face defining remorse.
"Gabriel I am sorry, please forgive me, I am really sorry, I don't have anything to explain but I am really sorry ".... She pleased holding my hands .
I was melted by the softness of her palms
"I am over it already, don't worry lina, we are cool " ...I said , trying to make her smile .
"So tell me about your parents and siblings "... I asked trying to swerve the emotional drama .
"They are fine, my dad is senator though, so he doesn't stay here with us, he stays at some senate arena at the federal senate base, my mom owns the famous casino center in town, and I am equally the only surviving child after I lost my senior sister last year "....she said .
"Sorry for your lost " ....I said, sounding sympathetic.
We spoke about school, we spoke at length laughed at every joke, acted like we knew for ages .
We left the lunch place at 3pm, I was escoting to pick a taxi when she stopped at the car pack, and pressed a remote for a blues porshe .
"Is that your mom's car ? " ..I asked as I was surprised to see the car I always see in television.
"Nope it's mine, get in let me drop you please "...she replied smiling.
"Nope, I can find my way from here " ..I said, avoiding to show how timid I was.
"Please Gabriel , this is a favour, will you turn me down ?..." She pleaded.
"Okay" ... I agreed reaching for the door that I had difficulty with opening, but I still opened it against my timidity.
She drove, we didn't talk much in the car as I was just giving her directions, she stopped me in front of my house, I managed to say a fainty " take care of yourself, bye" before I alighted.
She didn't reply as she was just watching me .
When I got to my apartment, I found Henry and Hillary playing games with my Xbox , when I entered .
"Where were you since dude ?" Henry asked
"He had a date, I guess, what will take him out in this afternoon that he has no lectures and no work " .... Hills added laughing .
They both didn't turn as their gaze was fixed on the television.
"Well Hills is right, I had a date with someone you people don't want to hear "...I said
"Who !" .. two of them said together facing me and leaving the game.
"Erm Melina"...I said under my breath .
"What!!!!! That girl, that girl that is rude on boys on campus, please how did it happen, which charm did you use, who suggested the date " .... Hills who was oblivious about my encounter with her asked surprised.
"You are insane " ...Henry said and turned back to the game .
