De Nelson's Senior High

Chapter 30- He's.....Comely

" Do you know him?" He asked after a brief silence.

" Obviously not that much, that's why we're going out." Ciarra tells him.

" Okay...no problem. See you in class tomorrow then?" Kobby agrees so he doesn't seem like an overprotective boyfriend. But she going out with him was a big problem to him.

" Sure, bye." She says and walks away towards Fedes. He smiled when he saw her and that literally ripped Kobby's heart out. After a few words, he leads the way out of the room.

" Oh lord have mercy." Samed sung, " Guys check his heartbeat."

Benard placed a hand on Kobby's chest and he quickly slapped his hands away.

" Charley, this one ibi hundred beats per minute." Benard cracks up laughing in the pidgin language most of the boys in the school had adopted.

" Kobby, shun, shun." Anel advises him, " Don't think about it."

They could all tell he was hurt by how he was standing still and quietly.

" Don't say anything, if you have anything to say put it into a song." Anel tells him since they could clearly see he was short of words.

" Guys, I have just turned Ciarra into someone else!" Kobby gasps then turns to Anel," But still I'll sing the song. You guys go be background acapella for this song."

" Don't worry, just start." Benard assures him whiles the others laugh in the empty church auditorium.

" The way I dey love you nerr

OoO

The Café felt warmer and cozier because of the cold outside and the smell of freshly baked goodies didn't escape anyone present's notice.

Fedes chose a booth further back from where she and her friends usually sat to prevent drawing undue attention. He was so sweet and easy to talk to because he always had a question or a thought in mind that always seemed to keep a conversation going.

Calvin smiled their way especially at Ciarra as he approached their table. Veronica had earlier given her a note to him, informing him that she wouldn't be able to meet him that Tuesday because of a punishment she was still not done with but instead they could meet up on Thursday Eve.

" Cocoa, you?" Fedes asks her.

" Decaf." She replies and slipped him the folded envelope with a wink to which he grinned before leaving, " You're not into coffee, are you?"

" Surprisingly no, I can't take the rush. I prefer to do things with the adrenaline rush I already have instead. You didn't order for whipped cream or creamer?."
