Chapter 36
” What do you mean? ” He asked.
” Um.. I didn’t mean it like that, I just.. Sorry ” I muttered and he chuckled.
” I’m his foster brother ” He replied and I turned to him at once.
” Really? ” I asked and he nodded.
” Does she know? ” I asked and he shook his head.
” Everyone knows except for her ” He replied.
” But.. why are you telling me this? ” I asked.
” ‘Cause you asked and I kinda like you ” He said with a big smile on which I find flirty or it’s probably just my thinking.
” Are you a flirt? ” I asked, dimming my eyes to his and he chuckled.
” You’re so funny ” He responded with a loud chuckle that sounded cute, really cute.
I was about saying a thing when a shadow I couldn’t see clearly standing some inches away from us called him.
” White ” His voice came out gently and even without seeing him clearly, I could recognize that voice of his, Tyler.
” See you later ” He said and then touched my hair slowly before standing up and then walking away to him.
He got to him. ” She’s here? ” He asked and Tyler nodded.
” Let’s go then ” White said and then hurried off, down away while Tyler stood still, watching me there in the dark.
Why’s he acting weird? He’s creeping me off seriously.
He then began to walk away.
” Tyler.. ” I called out slowly before I could stop myself. He stopped, with his back against mine.
” Sorry.. I didn’t mean to call you, you can leave ” I said fastly and expecting him to give a reply, he only walked away.
Alright that was cruel, what’s with him anyways?
** Next Day **
It was a Sunday Evening and hostel was kinda boring, every student busy in their rooms, probably studying but I could hardly see anyone around the balcony. Maybe the girls hostel only ’cause I could hear some noises coming from the other part of the hostel big building which belonged to the boys.
The school is like a big, really big widely spaced environment, a big gate leading to it.
In it was the main biggest building which was the school, and at the opposite part which was divided, not divided but a big waterfall Infront of both buildings to separate them, not totally since it was in the middle and there were the other sides where once could take to lead to the main building.
The other big building which is as big as the main building was the hostel.
A part of the building belonged to the girls and the other part for the boys.
” Where are you going to? ” Anita asked as I approached the door.
” I wanna go read some texts in the library ” I said, showing her my little note and pen and she nodded. ” Alright, I will come join you there later ” I said and she nodded.
School’s actually opened everyday, you can go in whenever you want.
” Alright, see you soon then ” I said and then walked out of the room.
Amy was somewhere with Alina, studying I guess. Their course ain’t really an easy one, they have to study everytime.
I walked in through the school’s big building and walking through the balcony, there were some few students in here, some chatting, some roaming around for one thing or the other.
I walked in through the first nearest library but walked out immediately.
Two lovers were in there eating each other’s face out. I have no other choice now than to go to the other library.
There are like ten big libraries in this school.
I got to the second one and they were many students in here, not many but.. I want a peaceful environment and they didn’t seem like they were studying, they seem to be chatting.
They could do all this in one of the classrooms though, why choose a library?
I heaved a sigh of relief when I walked into this peaceful library and no one was in. Just perfect.
To cut the story short, I had actually walked into about three more libraries after the first two and there were students in them all.
I’m glad I found this peaceful one. I was almost walking to a preferred seat I had chosen when I saw a figure sitting some inches away from me.
He was boy, I could sense that. His head bent low and his face buried in a book, more like a novel.
I recognize that.. his hair, it’s him and confirming my suspicions, he raised his head and our eyes met.
Yeah it’s him. I looked away and dropped my note and pen on the table I choose to sit in.Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.
I walked over to the shelves and began going through the racks to find the book I was looking for.
Great, found it! I stretched my hands the more to get it but I couldn’t, even with standing on my toes, I couldn’t get it.
I was about laying my raised toes down to the floor when his hand reached to the book, making our hands touched slightly and I stepped my raised toes to the floor, making me step on his legs slightly but I was quick to move backwards.
” Thanks ” I said and stretched my hands to take the book from him but he pulled back making me raise my brows.
” You didn’t take them for me? ” I asked confusedly.
” You’re going to act like this? ” He asked, making me furrow my brows the more.
” How? ”
” Like we’re strangers? ” He asked.
” Are we friends then? ” I asked and he released the book to me and then walked away, back to his seat.
Wait, I didn’t do anything wrong did I? I was only joking, he didn’t realize that? And why’s he mad? Didn’t he act like he doesn’t know me?
Alright, I should clear things up and tell him I was just joking.
I walked over to him and tapped his table lightly.
” Hey! ” I called but he gave no reply.
” Hey, I was just joking, I didn’t mean that ” I said but once again he gave no reply.
I snatched his book at once and he in a swift, stood up to take the book but in the process, I almost fell but he swiftly pulled me to him and the book fell in the process.
Instead of picking the book, he didn’t move and instead even before I could blink, his lips landed on mine shocking the hell out of me.
What the hell!
I tried to struggle but he deepened the kiss and slowly I melted and began kissing him back, my arms hanging around his neck and his hand wrapped around my waist pulling me closer.
” Marvy? ” We were interrupted and he let go of me immediately and I immediately turned to Anita.
” Hey ” I said nervously.
Tyler only took the book that was dropped to the floor and sat on his seat while Anita kept giving me confused look and looks that reads “you have to explain”
” My seat’s over there ” I said and she nodded and we both walked over to my seat. I sat down, avoiding gazes with her and she sat opposite me.
” Now explain! You said you two never spoke? ” She said.
” I lied ” I muttered without looking up but I could guess she had her brows raised and yeah she had them raised. I raised my head to her.
” You two dated? ” She asked and I shook my head slowly before explaining everything to her.
By explaining, I told her I visited them on a holiday and how Tyler hated me before it was some days to me leaving and he suddenly confessed that he liked me.
Totally removing the part that I have a child for him and he doesn’t even know, and also the part that we were supposed to get married and he rejected me.
” So, how did this happened? ” She asked.
” I don’t know, I seriously also don’t know, he just kissed me and I foolishly kissed him back ” I muttered.
” And that means he meant those words he said to you then and he probably still likes you ” She said and I gave a fake smile.
” Right. But he never bothered to call me during those times we were apart and what if we never met here? His lips were probably itching him and I was the only option left ” I chuckled at my own joke but she wasn’t feeling it.
” I’m damn serious. He wouldn’t kiss you of he doesn’t mean it, look over there.. he isn’t even concentrated on his readings anymore ” She said, gesturing at the other side and I turned to see Tyler’s eyes heavily on mine.
