"Hurry up Reenay ,ion wanna miss this exam "
"Yeah,me too,it has an higher unit" Ariana backs me up as we have little time left and Reenay is busy searching for her ID pass to our exam.
"I found it" Reenay says this amidst heavily breathing.
"Okay let's go girls,you're certainly driving us since you delayed"
"That's not a punishment in case you don't know" Reenay says this and we all laugh as we head out for our exam.
Well...we all must be wondering how we get here but don't worry, I'll explain.
After the whole game back at school,Spence wanted to see me and I was so happy about it as I thought we'll be having a fresh start.
"Hey...!!! Uhm..I heard you were looking for me" I say this with so much joy but he's expression is looking kinda sad
"Yeah..I actually wanted us to talk about something"
"What do you wanna talk about?" I know I'm happy if we get back but it feels just too sudden and I can't say so no to him cause I know that's what he's definitely gonna ask
"US"
"Okay..go on" God ...I wanna smile hard but he's looking so scared n ion wanna scare him so I put on a hard face
"Let's forget what we have"
"Yes!!!" We both say our words at same time as I was expecting something else.
"Wait what did you say?"
"Yes to what?" We speak at same time again.
"Okay..wait, I think you should talk first Spence"
"No Mira,ladies first"
"Ju-just for-forget w-what I said" There's no way I'm gonna cry in front of him. I try my best to control my emotions.
"Okay fine. I just don't think we can do this relationship thing"
"Why?"
"We just graduated and we both know that our choice of university is different"
"Distance doesn't stop Love, that was your exact words"
"I was blinded by my obsession for you then. Let's face reality now"
"So...you have a new obsession uhn"
"Don't bring Layah into this Mira"
"I didn't even say her freaking name"
"Well we kissed today so I obviously knew you'll be jealous"
"Wow!!! Applauds, you really know how to stick words . You won in using the Almighty Mira Browne tagged " book worm "
"I never used you okay. I love you and I always do"
"What the fuck I'm gonna use your love for if we ain't together"
"I..shit!!Mira this is just for the best. I'm sure you'll found someone cooler than me pretty soon"
(Laughs) "Oh sure I will,have a nice day"
"Hope we are cool" He says this while holding unto my hand.
"Don't you ever lay your freaking hands on me" He makes no attempt to unlock our hands and so I use my other hand to remove he's hands whilst looking directly at he's eyes.
"Mira !!!Please..."
"To think I thought I was selfish when I told you to wait. I actually took the perfect decision"
"I really did love you"
"Tell that your new toy. Bye Spence Kimberly"
"Mira!!!" I feel a pinch on my skin and I can't help the scream.
"Ouch!!! What was that for?"
"Well..I've been calling your name for up to minutes now"
"So sorry girls,I just remembered something"
"Let me guess,your stupid ex from high school" Ariana says this with so much ease
"Ariana!!!"
"What Reenay!!! He's the only one giving her that expression on her face even when she has Landon on her neck"
"I do like Landon"
"Lies!!!"
"Okay forget it. Let's go for the exams okay"
"We'll gonna talk about this when going home. " Typical Ariana says this. She reminds me so much of Aisha,I really wish she made the exams but she didn't so she had to try out another university. I really do miss her.
**************
"I officially hate this lecturer"
"You've always hated him Reenay" I say this mockingly
"Seems like someone did a great job today"
"Not really Ariana. I just think I'll get a pass"
"Lucky you" Reenay says this whilst wiping fake tears off her eyes
"Come on you both,we studied hard for this and whether he likes it or not we'll definitely pass"
"Are you sure Mira"
"I've never been so sure" I say this and we all laugh. I'm about to open the car door and then a hand pulls me.
"Spence!!!"
"Hi Mira" He says this with so much smile
"How did yo-u..." I can't complete my statement as I'm shocked
"I school here. If that's what ya gonna ask"
"Oh...well OK"
"Its been a while "
"I know. Three years ain't joke"
"Mira!!!" Typical Impatient Ariana yells my name
"Uhm..I guess I'll catch you later, my friends are waiting for me"
" Can I get your number?" Of course he doesn't have my number as I purposely changed my line.
"What for?" I don't mean to be rude and I might be sounding immature but like I need to know
"I could use a friend around here" He gives me a smirk and..it's still kinda charming but I got to think this through and ...I guess I'm curious as to what Jaden told me.
"Jaden!!! What are you doing at my house. Perry's not here"
"I'm here for you and can you please let me sit at least"
"Oh sorry" I say this as I notice he's just stuck outside with me holding the door half open.
"Good enough. Won't you offer something for me to drink"
"Forgive my manners. What would our Majesty want to drink"
"Just kidding Mira, I actually want us to go grab an ice cream at an eatery close by"
"As much as I love ice cream, ya being suspicious Jaden"
"Can't I just want to take you out"
"No! You can't . We all know ya stingy except to Perry, don't get offended"
"Yea..I accept"
"So just spill" I say this with a strict face
"I just missed you"
"Jaden!!!"
"For real" He says this walking up to me and then removes strands of hair from my face flirtatiously
"Your girl friend wouldn't like what ya doing and I know you don't wanna flirt with me" I say this whilst removing he's hands
"Okay fine!!! Spence send me to bring you"
"What!!! Why!" I say this angrily and I can feel the venom in my voice
"I don't know but he really wants to see you"
"Why didn't he come here himself"
"Come on Mira. You know you've been avoiding him"
"Well...I've just been busy"
"You ain't right now so just go"
"I don't want to"
"This last time Mira. Just go"
"No...we are OVER"
"You'll regret this"
"Ion care"
"Fine!!! suite yourself"
"Mira!!!"
"Oh..sorry Spence. Your phone please"
"Uhn"
"Thought you want my number" I say this, rolling my eyes.
"Oh yea" He stretches he's phone and I notice those cute ass dimples I fell for over three years ago and he's smile looks more great than ever. Goddd..shot me and my thoughts.
"Here you go,just text me and I'll save yours" I say this and walk off,not even giving him a chance to answer.
"So..who was that hot dude that you kept us hanging for?" Reenay asks with so much interest
"Should.. I say my ex crush or ex lover?"
"What!!! You should have told me so that I'll kick He's ass"
"Really Ariana?Ion think so Mira. She was literally drooling at him"
"I wasn't okay"
"Whatever girls..just drive" I say this while laughing. I won't quite blame Ariana, Spence is really looking so hot, too bad he was a total jerk.
****************
I get home and decide to come online as I've not really been chatting so well because of exams and then I start getting many unread messages and there's a particular one from an unknown number.
I'll kill Ariana if I find out she gave my number out to a stranger again as she's fond of setting me up with guys.
Mira: Uhm!!! Who's this?
I send this as my reply immediately
Unknown:Its Spence
Wow...that's actually kinda quick and I can't believe I forgot that I actually gave him my number.
Mira:Oh..right,Hi
Spence: So..how have you been?
We keep chatting until my mind clicks to why I actually gave him my number
Mira:Can I ask you a question?
Spence: Yeah sure
Mira: Jaden told me something three years ago and I didn't care more or less about it but now I'm inquisitive
Spence: What did he tell you?
Mira: That you had something to tell me at an eatery
Spence: What was it about?
Mira: He didn't tell me but he said it's important
Spence: What if I said I don't remember
Mira: That will be a lie
Spence:Okay fine, I remember
Mira: Okay go on...
Spence: Let's just let it slide,you didn't show up that day after all
Mira: What if I did?
Spence:Don't be smart Mira, you'll know what I was supposed to tell you if I answer that question
Mira:Fine!!!Please just tell me
Spence:Okay....Let's talk this out doing dinner
Mira:Are you asking me out on a date
Spence: What if I said yes
Mira:I won't go
Spence: Then. ..its a friendly outing then
Mira: Lol,what time
Spence:Tomorrow by 5
Mira:Location?
Spence: I'll come pick you
Mira:I'm not gonna tell you my house address
Spence:I have my ways
Mira:Good luck on that
I go offline after and I'm wondering what would have actually happened if I had gone that day. Well... most movies I've watched always have a happy ending but as for mine, ion know what to call it.
Do I regret liking Spence?,no. Are we gonna come back together?, I definitely don't know.
One thing I know for sure is that this is just a beginning of another adventure and there are lessons I'm gonna learn. I'll just live life and enjoy the best moments of it,first;I'll start with watching the stars from my window. The view here is really nice.
The End
