Chapter Four :Bag Of Surprise

Start from the beginning
                                        

"Well I, uh, I, ummm if you say so, what can I get you? I'm really sorry you caught me like this"

Inner thoughts :A stick of cigarette🙄, get us food please

What is wrong with you? "My mouth fell open as soon as I realized what I had said out loud

Excuse me"? He asked

"Sorry I wasn't talking to you "

" you seem to do that a lot, you say something but then it's always difficult to find out who you are referring to'

My self" I replied slightly embarrassed

He laughed and repeated what I had said

Inner thoughts :you couldn't even keep our secret, now he'll think your crazy 🤦‍♀️

"well I think it's cute that at least you have someone to talk to,I find it difficult to talk to people without sounding ridiculous "He ended with a smile which was breathtaking and the ooze of the cigarette did in fact take my breath away

"Ummm David, do you think you could brush your teeth or something, it's really. Your breath is quite bad" I finally got myself to say

"Sorry, I'm so sorry, I'll fix myself up, I told the cook to get you something "
he left and he came back the food was already served, he was shirtless this time, he decided to have a bath all together. He scrambled to his feet and started clearing the place

I dove into the food as a means to distract myself from looking at him, I stared everywhere else but him
"Do you want to maybe, grab a snack later? "

Me? " I replied absent mindedly still lost in the sweet taste of the delicacy

Inner thoughts : No he's talking to the wall🙄, get yourself in order please, you're embarrassing me

"I would love to, but I have something important to do, could you please put something on"

Inner thoughts : Just when I started to enjoy the view, how wicked!

When i finished eating we played games and before I left I decided to make a small request, courtesy of all the years of morals being driven into me by my parents and the information from school and cigarette packets.

"David, I know it's not easy to handle things and I know you get tensed easily but ummm do you maybe think it's possible to quit smoking? You can always talk to me when you're not feeling okay, plus if you had become a doctor, you'd know the danger those things would cause you"

"I'm really sorry if that makes you uncomfortable, you are my one true friend . I'll try to stop doing that but promise me that you'll always have time to hangout with me. I love the idea of having a friend "

I promise"

I hugged him before leaving, of course I had to prepare for my fourth date. This time hugging David felt different, it felt soothing and comfortable but I also had to wiggle out of his grip.

Inner thoughts : he needs to learn to hug and withdraw, holding on too long makes him look sad and lonely

"He was sad and lonely "I retorted

Inner thoughts : easy there, sheesh, you're now defending him how cute

"Friends defend each other"

Inner thoughts :😂😂😂what a poor excuse, careful there amaka the smoker is getting under your skin
