Episode 34
Jeremy’s POV
After dressing up, I gr@bb£d my bag and my phone and walked out of my room and down the stairs.
Eaten earlier so I walked out.
Moni’s probably in the kitchen, so I just walked out, to my car and drove off.
……………………
I got to Andra’s house and when I pressed the doorbell, she opened immediately.
I smiled.
She look so cute like always.
“Hi bestie.” I said.
She smiled but her smile wasn’t so bright like it use to.
“Hey, I don’t like that smile.” I said, giving her a pla-yful smile.
“Huh?”
“Your smile ain’t so lightful like it use to be. Are you fine?” I asked.
“Ye..Yeah.. Im fine.” She said.
“Then just smile again so I’ll know you’re fine?” I said.
She hit me, laughing wi-dely.
“You’re so crazy Jeremy.” She said.
I smiled.
“I guess I am. What about Lili?” I asked.
“She’s in.” She said.
“Told her about my dad coming back today?” I asked.
Alexandra’s POV
His question made me recall the dream..
I feel scared and worried..
I wish I can tell him but I can’t.
“Yeah I did.” I said.
“It took you quite long to answer that. You okay Andra?” He asked.
“Yes I am.” I said.
But the truth is that, I ain’t!
He took my hand and we walked to his car.
……………………………………
“Talked with your dad today?” I asked him cos I can’t st©p thinking about that. aweful dream.
“Yeahh. Told me he’ll beon his way to the airport soon.” He said.
I stared at the windscreen.
“Okay.” I said coldly.
He glanced at me.
“You are beyond nice Andra.” He said, smiling.
“Huh?” I said, and looked at him.
He smiled more, his dimples ma-king my stomache ti-ght£ñ.
“You just asked about my dad. Molly’s my girlfriend and she haven’t called to ask if he’s really coming today.” He said.
I swallowed..
Is he tryna say im better than Molly?
………………………………………………
When we got to school and he pu-ll-ed to a st©p.
I got down down from the car and waited for him to come over so we could walk together to clas-s.
But then, I couldn’t believe the eyes that fell on me.
Okay, there were always eyes whenever I step down from his car but today’s was damn suspicious.
I swallowed and Jeremy c@m£ over.
I couldn’t help but ask him.
“Why are they so many eyes on me?” I whispered.
“On us.” He said as he took my hand and smiled.
Gosh! This punk!
We walked down the hallway, with him still holding my hand.
People still stared, and with him holding my hand made it worse!
And I could hear mutterings now.
He’s the girl on his facebook post.
Oh my! I can’t believe it.
They had fights! but they are holding hands now. Unbelievable.
Wow. She’s the girl with him on the picture!
Alexandra?
They are holding hands. Wow.
New friends?
Wow..
.
.
Facebook?
Picture?
What are they talking about?
I glanced at Jeremy and he’s face’s straight.
He look so handsome but that’s not why im looking at him!
“What are they talking about?” I asked him, nervous and anxious to know the thing he posted on facebook.
“I’ll explain later Andra. Just ignore them okay?” He said.
The mutterings were so much that I was wishing I could shut their mouths up!
And so many eyes on us.
I cann’t wait to get to clas-s and Jeremy just held my hand ti-ght and don’t wanna let go of it.
“The stares are so much. Just leave my hand plea-se.” I said.
He just smiled.
Argh! I feel like hitting hin ha-rd !
Why’s he smiling like what I said is funny huh?
He didn’t let go of my hand till we got to my locker.
“Oh, you finally did huh.” I said, glaring at him.
“Did what?” He asked,smiling.
“Let go of my hand.” I said.
“I enjoyed the stares.” He said with a wi-de smile.
I finally got the chance to hit him.. and I did.
I hit him on his arm.
“Ouch! That hurt Andra.” He said, pretending like it hurt.
I know it didn’t.
“I must hit back.” He said, acting like some kid.
I rolled my eyes and turned to my locker. Dropped my book, and got my English books.
…………………………，
We turned and headed to clas-s.
All eyes fell on us as we walked in.
Everyone.
Chris, Molly, Eve. Everyone!
But they stared mostly at me!
I swallowed.
The stares were so much that I felt embarras-sed.
I was about walking to my seat, when a hand pu-ll-ed me back.
Jeremy!
Huh! I looked at him in utter shock and confusion.
What do he wanna do?
Is he the reason for all this stares?
I got scared.
I swear I did. I felt he wanna embarras-s me again.
But then he gave me an as-suring smile that tells that he wanna do something sweet rather.
Then I glanced at the Clas-s.
Chris was smiling, Molly’s face was dangerous.
Eve was smiling broadly.
She looked so cute.
Others just stared..
I looked at him, he was smiling.
Argh! Cutieeeee!
I wonder what you wanna do! in front of your girlfriend!
Did I do so wrong by accepting to be your girlfriend huh!
You make me feel so scared!
He held me ti-ght, and made me stand so close to him that our arms t©uçhed.
“HELLO GUYS..” He began.
And my heart jumped and began beating fast.
I looked down cos I can’t dare look at anyone now not even him.
I’ll have to face whatever that comes..
“I WANNA LET YOU GUYS KNOW… THAT THIS CUTIE HERE,..”
Oh my God!
Did he just call me ‘cutie in front of everyone here, including his girlfriend!
Argh Jeremy…
My heart is beating so fast.
“…MISS ALEXANDRA GRANDE, IS NO MORE MY ENEMY. WE ARE OFFICIALLY FRIENDS NOW… SO EVERYONE SHOULD SEE HER AS MY FRIEND FROM NOW ON..” He announced.
Oh my God!
Oh Jeremy… What did you just do!
I shut my eyes.
I dont wanna see Molly’s face but I did open my left eye to check Eve and she had her palms on herl-ips and her eyes wi-de open.
UHH!
But then my pulse st©pped when He turned me to face him and… and.. then he k!$$£d me on my forehead.
Whaaaaaaat!!
They was a shout out of, “WOWWWWWWWWWWW!!!” from the clas-s.
I swear, I heard my heart beat.
It was so loud.
“You didn’t expect this right?” He whispered in a way that only I could hear.
“…I just wanted everyone to know we are friends now cos so many of them still thought we are enemies, you know. Im happy that we are friends now. Jeremy is happy to be your friend. I promise to make you happy and protect you. Be there for you always.” He said.
God! Why’s he ma-king it sound so ro-mantic like I just accepted to be his girlfriend when it’s just mutual friendsh!p.
Then he left my hand and… and I managed to take one seconds glance at Molly..
And I got scared for my dear self.
Her eyes were on me.
And they told how angry and furious she was.
Oh Jeremy.
You shouldn’t have done this.
I said within as I sat down on my seat and got my head on my desk.
Jeremy’s POV
When she walked to her seat, I inhaled and walked to my seat.
I smiled at Chris.
He’s been smiling like an idiot.
I punched him slightly..
“Hey dude, what’s up?” I said.
“I enjoyed every bit of it.” He said, smiling.
I punched him slightly again.
Molly was looking straight.
But I called her anyways.
“Hey Babe.” I said.
She ignored me.
I know she will..
“That picture on your wall was superb. God..” Chris said.
“Talking like you ain’t the one who took it. punk.” I said, smiling.
He laughed.
“Your dad’s still coming today?” He asked.
“Yeah.. I can’t wait dude. I miss him.” I said.
“We miss him too,.you know. Ellas do.” He said.
I smiled.
Then Ms Lorrane walked in.
…………………………………………
Alexandra’s POV
As Ms Lorrane taught…
I wasn’t concentrating.
I was thinking about that horrible dream that I had.
I wanna tell Jeremy. I can’t hide it from him..
Im gonna tell him.
I let Ms Lorrane get throu-gh with her teaching, and when she left, I stood up and walked to my locker to s£nd Jeremy a text message, but I met three girls standing in front of my locker.
“Hey bit-ch..” The tallest girl among them said immediately I got to them.
“Excuse me?” I said.
“You so ugly. Ugh! You shouldn’t be friennds with our handsome Jeremy.” The second girl said.
Really?
“She’s a dummy.” The third girl said and they laughed.
I rolled my eyes.
“Get away from my locker.” I said.
“And if we don’t huh?” The first girl said.
I was about replying them when I saw Molly walk in.
They turned and walked away immediately they saw her..
She walked up to me.
Her face expressionless. I wonder why she’s here..
To make troubles?
“Hey..” She said just immediately she got to me and stood in my front.
“Molly..” I said.
“What if I congratulate your friendsh!pwith my b©yfri£ndbit-ch.” She said.
bit-ch?
I could reply her in which ever way she wants.., but I got more important thing to do now,
Texting Jeremy..
I wanted to text him to come out of clas-s that I got something to tell him. But since this devil is here.,
I’ll just s£nd everything to him.
Tell him about that horrible nightmare that I had.
Im scared that I can’t keep it away from him.
I turned to my locker to open it.
But..
“Hey, you gotta look at me when im talking to you.” She said, as she f0rç£fully pu-ll-ed me to face her.
I breathed and just stared at her.
“Im gonna warn you girl,..” She said, taking her eyes down from my feet up to my head.
“…Stay clear from my b©yfri£ndcos he don’t fv¢king nee-d any fv¢king female friend.”
Seriously?
I crossed my arms and still stared at her.
“..Im the only girl for Jeremy.. Im the only girl so close to him, im his girlfriend. so don’t fv¢king bring your damn self close to him ever again or I’ll make you un-derstand what it means to step on my toes, bit-ch!” She said.
“You’re his girlfriend. Everyone knows… And he knows that you are. You shouldn’t be paranoid that he made me his friend. It’s never gonna change the fact that you are his girlfriend and he is your b©yfri£nd.” I said.
She rolled her eyes.
“Ohh, gosh! you so disgust me!” She said.
“Im not gonna warn you next time. Stay away from my b©yfri£nd. He’s mine alone. Get that into your dull skull!” She said.
“Im not gonna do that Molly.. Jeremy and I are friends now and you can’t st©p me from being his friend.” I said.
She scoffed a laugh.
“You know, you’re so stubborn though. It’s a warning Alex. Stay away from my b©yfri£nd.” She said.
Just then, I saw Jeremy, he just walked in and stood a bit far.
Molly was backing him so she can’t see him.
Then our eyes met and he began walking towards us, his hand in his pockets.
“Hi bestie..” He called and walked to me, crossing his arm over my shoulder.
Argh! This crazy guy, why’s he acting crazy in front of his girlfriend!
“You fine?” He asked, looking at me.
“Not really.. I’ve got something to tell you.” I said.
He looked at Molly.
She was fuming, I know.
We are just friends. Why would she be so upset about it.
Is he thinking she is included in what I wanna tell him?
Jeremy’s POV
I was in clas-s when I saw Molly walk out, just after Andra did.
I knew Molly is up to something and it got to do with Andra.
So I got up and c@m£ over.
I saw them talking back at each other and I was right.
I hate Molly now. Im seriously hating her and I got no idea why.
She’s my girlfriend, yeah, but the truth about it was that we did a game. It was Truth and Dare game.
We pla-yed it some night at the club, Tht was three months ago.
Chris, I, Molly and some other crazy friends, we pla-yed it together.
Molly and I were just friends then.
It was time for Molly to ask me and I said, Dare.
And she dared me to make her my girlfriend for two weeks.
I laughed and accepted and it was fun.
And when the two weeks ended, I couldn’t break up with her cos I was enjoying our game relationsh!p.
She was a fling and I loved it.
So she just went on being my girlfriend.
Not that I fv¢king love her or gat any fv¢king feeling for her.
I just like her craziness and her p@rty freak ways.
But now, I just think Im gonna end this game $h!t.
And I know it’s cos I got Andra.
Though she’s just my friend but I feel… I feel im gonna try something stupid soon.
Ask her to be my girlfriend.
Weird!
She saw me and when our eyes met, I walked over to them.
“Hi bestie..” I said and walked to Andra. And crossed my arm over her shoulder.
I looked at her.
“You fine?” I asked.
“Not really.. I’ve got something to tell you.” She said.
Something to tell me?
I looked at Molly.
Did she hurt Andra ?
I’ll deal with her if so.
I don’t care!
I promised to protect Andra and i’ll do just that.
I turned my eyes back to Andra.
“Come,” I said and walked away with her.
Molly’s #POV
I felt like yelling out so loud when he walked away with her, without even talking to me!
fv¢k it!!
I clenched my fist and clenched my teeth in so much anger.
Gosh! I can’t bear this!!

Jeremy’s POV
We walked down the hallway and to the small hallway that leads to the long staircase..
I st©pped there, at the hallway, facing each other.
“What do you wanna tell me?” I asked her.
She went silent.. Like she’s finding it quite ha-rd to say out.
“You wanna say that im handsome?” I asked and smiled.
She glared.
“No uh!” She said and got her face down.
“So what’s that? You ma-king me eager to know.” I said, having the weird feeling that she wanna say,
‘I LOVE YOU JEREMY..’
Lol..
“It’s… its just that.. I.. I” She stammered.
$h!t. Why’s she stammering?
Just say it out.
I Love you Jeremy..
you punk!!
Argh!
“I had a scary dream..” She said.
“Huh?”
Scary dream!
What thefu-ck!
“..And It’s about your dad Jeremy.” She said coldly and looked up at me.
“My dad??” I asked, feeling my heart beat raise alre-ady.
I hate scary dreams!
“it was a hospital and he was in a coma, still and not moving at all.. And you were far at the door, calling out and crying..” She said and her face had grew pale and her nose red.
My heart beat raised.
My dad,
In a Coma..
And im crying.
“I feel so scared and im worried sick. I told Lili about it and thought of not letting you know but then Im so worried that I can’t keep it away from you.” She said.
I swallowed.
“Im scared Andra.” I said and quic-kly got out my phone and dialled my dad’s line.
He picked up just immediately, which gave me relief.
“Dad..” I called.
“Hello Son.. My flight is taking off in the next ten minutes. I can’t wait to get home and spend time with you..” He said.
I inhaled.
“Dad, My friend, She had a scary dream about you. I just wish you could go back.” I said.
“Oh son. Dreams don’t happen. I always tell you. Don’t worry about that. I’ll be in Florida in few hours.” He said.
I shut my eyes.
“Okay dad. plea-se come home. I miss you.” I said.
“I will son.”
Andra was shaking her head ra-pidly in a sign that I shouldn’t accept.
“Dad.. Are..re you gonna be fine. Promise me.” I said.
I wish he could just go back and come home some other day.
“Of course son. I gotta be on the plane now, bye dear.” He said.
I inhaled.
“Bye dad. See you soon.” I said.
The call dropped.
I looked at Andra and she looked too pale and scared.
Her eyes dull.
I can’t believe she’s worried sick for my dad.
This cutueeee..
I pu-ll-ed her into a hvg.
“It’s okay Andra. He as-sured me that he’s gonna be fine.” I said.
“I want him to be fine. I really want him to. I feel so scared.” She said.
“I feel scared too. I hate scary dreams.” I said and chuckled.
“Me too.” She said.
Then I pu-ll-ed away and took her hand.
“Can we go up the stairs to the balcony?” I asked.
I just some atmosphere to forget about the dream and all the scared, worried $h!ts!
And I don’t want her to be damn worried as well.
“No.. We got Biology and the syairs is so long.” She said.
“Oh c’mon. If you get tired, I’ll carry on you on my back.” I said, win-ked and pu-ll-ed her along.
“Jeremy!” She yelled.
I laughed and walked over to the stairs and began climbing.
I still held her.
“If you get tired, I’ll back you Andra.” I said again.
And I meant it.
She hit me.
It was ha-rd tho
“Ouch!” I yelled and wanna hit her back when she pu-ll-ed away and began running up the stairs.
I smiled and chased her.
“Im gonna catch you cos you gonna get tired soon.” I said as my voice echoed.
“No way. You can’t.” she said and ran on.
I did caught her from the back and held her.
It was sort of a back hvg.
She was breathing so ha-rd and quite sweaty.
Including me.
“I caught you Andra. You see im a good runner.” I said, smiling.
She was laughing.
Hummmm..
I breathed within.
I love this catch.
From the back… Where I held her ti-ght.
“Hey, you holding me so ti-ght.” She said.
“Shh…” I said, b!owing air at her n£¢k.
“Orsh! Why you doing that?” She asked.
I smiled.
“Cos your n£¢k’s sweaty and I wanna dry em up.” I lied.
Sweet lie, cos I did it again.
“St©p that Jeremy.” She said and f0rç£d herself out of my hold.
She turned to me and tried to hit me but I gr@bb£d her hand and she smiled.
Cutie friend.
We walked up the last steps and went throu-ght the narrow hallway that leads off to the balcony.
“I don’t wanna fall off here.” She said when we got to the balcony.
“I’ll never let you fall.” I said.
I pu-ll-ed off my pu-llover and spre-ad it on the floor.
I sat down and she did too.
We ba-rely had space, cos we got attached cos of the pu-llover was small.
“We sit and watch the roads and houses afar …
and watch the birds flying high up in the sky
and let the pas-sing air..
b!ow throu-gh our crazy hair..” I said.
It sounded like a poem.
She laughed. “Sort of a poem. You might be a great poet someday.” She said.
I smiled.
“What do you love to do?” She asked.
I smiled.
“I love to get on her nerves then, pu-ll her hair. And those times I love to k!ssher..” I looked at her.. okay, at herl-ips.
That was where I was looking at now.
“…to k!ssher..l-ips.” I said.
She pushed my face away.
“St©p saying nons£nce.” She said.
I smiled,
“I love to pl@yfootball and I love race game. When I was nine, my dad and I love pla-ying Piano, but st©pped when I turned sixteen, cos he started being so busy.” I said.
“Will you guys pl@ypiano together when he he’s back?” She asked.
“Yeah, but not like we always use to do those times.” I said.
“It’s great that he still has little times for you. So many dads don’t.” She said.
I un-derstood.
She’s kinda talking about her dad.
So I squee-zed her hand slightly.
She laughed.
I love the way she laughs.
“What about you Andra? What do you love to do?” I asked, and looked at her.
“I love writting.. I love listening to music and I love swimming but I’ve not gotten chance to swim ever since I c@m£ here. I’do swim when I was in Texas in our house and at my school. I won prizes tho.” She said.
“You’ve not gotten chance or you’ve not seen where to?” I asked her.
“Kind of.” She said, smiling.
“Steph didn’t tell you we had that here in the school?” I asked.
“She did.” She said.
I smiled and shrugged as I pictured her in swimming p@n-ts.
“You’do look damn good in that.” I said, smiling
“In what?” She asked.
Swimming p@n-ts.
“Nothing.” I said.
She hit me.
I hit back.
She hit me again and I held her hand.
“Andra..” I said.
“What?”
“Thanks for being my friend.” I said.
She didn’t say anything.
So I just held her hand as we stared at the roads and houses afar …
and watch the birds flying high up in the sky..
As the pas-sing air.. blew throu-gh our crazy hair..
