- (To be your girlfriend?)
- Kendra's POV
- I turned around and went back to the place kora asked me to wait for her.
- Before I got there, I saw her pacing up and down probably wondering where I went to.
- She sighted me and came to me.
- "Kendra, where did you go to?"
- "You kept me worried" she cooed.
- "I'm so sorry,I just saw Rico and decided to follow him secretly but he caught me anyways" I explained.
- "Huh, you followed him?" She asked puzzled as we started off again.
- "Yes, I just wanted to no where and what his up to" I replied.
- "OK then, here take this" she said handing a paper which I guess should be the time table to me.
- I collected it and kept it inside the bag I was carrying.
- Yes I carried the bag with me.
- "And wait...."
- She said and paused again.
- "We need an empty locker, gosh!!" She said placing her hand on her temples.
- We forgot that one again.
- "Well, remind me to get it for you first thing tomorrow" she said as we walked.
- We got to a place and wow!
- It was the canteen.
- Its really huge.
- Wow!
- Everything in this school is perfect.
- Super perfect.
- We went to an empty table and kora beckoned on me to sit.
- I sat while she went to where the food sellers are.
- I kept looking around in amazement.
- Its beautiful.
- She came back few minutes later with two trays.
- She placed one tray in front of me and one in front of her.
- It contains the same meal.
- Waffle,sausage,grapes, apple and apple drink with vanilla cup ice cream.
- "What??" I exclaimed in shock and she looked at me puzzled.
- "You bought all this just for lunch?" I asked with wide eyes.
- "So??"
- "But I thought you don't have much money?" I asked.
- "Well, yes but this are cheap, but not that cheap" she replied.
- "Let's just eat okay?" She said and started eating.
- I joined her, after a while I started hearing giggling, cheers and silent talks.
- Looks like everyone was looking in one direction.
- I turned towards where they were looking and there I saw Rico, Mason and Jason coming in.
- Woops!
- Rico was in the middle of em.
- Some ladies were even smiling foolishly and waving at them but they seems not to care.
- They went to a table and sat.
- I noticed that table and chairs are kinda different from the rest.
- It was more big and more chairs where arranged round it away from the rest.
- They sat down roughly and brought out there phones.
- Three fruit sellers showed up with trays and placed it in front of them.
- Jason whispered something to one of the sellers and she left and later came back with a cup of juice.
- Do they eat fruit all day?
- Goodness!!
- I took my eyes away from them and continued with my unfinished business and after a while I heard same noise raise up again.
- Okay? What's going on this time?
- Is it the country's president this time? I wondered.
- I turned my eyes to the direction of the door and saw Rico and his brother.
- They walked pass us and wanted to sit at a table but cole paused and looked at Rico who was already glaring daggers at him.
- Cole smirked and left the chair he was pulling out then turned.
- He ran his eyes all over as if looking for someone.
- All attention were placed on him.
- What or who is he looking for?
- Then his eyes met mine and my heart missed a beat.
- I quickly took my eyes away from him but noticed him coming close to our table.
- Hold on; hope its not what am thinking.
- He got to our table and stopped.
- I raised my eyes again to look at him and the spoon with me fell off.
- What??
- His more handsome when his closer.
- "Hey" he cooed and I turned to look at kora who was also puzzled.
- She was starring at him nonstop.
- We both kept quite starring at him.
- "Can I sit with you?" He asked and kora and I looked at ourselves at the same time then back at him.
- Who is he talking to exactly?
- "Can I?" He asked after we didn't reply.
- "Y..Yes" kora replied and he sat down.
- He snapped his hand and a Waiter walked up to us.
- "Get them what they want" he said and I gulped.
- What's this guy saying?
- Did he say them??
- Maybe I heard wrongly.
- We don't even no each other.
- He might be here for kora.
- Its best I leave them be.
- As the waiter talked to kora asking her the things she wanted.
- I stood up slowly and was about leaving but his voice stopped me.
- "Where are you going?" He asked and I gulped hard and turned to look at him.
- Kora was also starring at him.
- What am I saying? The whole school were starring at me.
- Even Rico and the twins.
- I suddenly felt sweat forming on my fore head.
- What's happening?
- "Where to?" He asked after he noticed my silence.
- "I...um.. I wanted to leave you two alone" I replied and he scoffed.
- "Am actually here for you" he said and I became more confused.
- I looked at kora who was also starring at me.
- "Me...Me?" I asked pointing at myself and he nodded.
- "Sit" he said and I sat down back.
- My gaze focused on the table as the waiter asked me what I was gonna take.
- I'm..I'm..okay already" I replied and heard cole scoffed.
- "Am not taking that for an answer" he said.
- I looked at kora and then to the waiter.
- "Get me what she asked for" I told her and the waiter left.
- "Alright seems this won't do Kendra" cole suddenly spoke up and I raised my head to look at him.
- What is he insinuating?
- "We're gonna do this some other time, I'll fix another meeting with you later" he said and smiled.
- "Later" he cooed and went to meet his brother.
- Before he sat he took a glance at Rico before sitting.
- I don't understand all this at all.
- Kora kept starring at me.
- "Kendra, what just happened?"
- "Do you no each other?" She asked.
- "I swear that I've never met or talked to him before kora, am as confused as you" I replied and she sighed.
- "Something is up" she said under her breathe.
- The waiter returned and served us what cole bought for us.

- Cole's POV
- "You must be kidding me right?" Nick yelled.
- "Stop yelling bro" I hushed as I took a sip from my shot.
- "You're gonna ask her out? Like ask her to be your girlfriend for revenge?"
- "Are you kidding me??" Nick continued yelling.
- "So what?" I asked as I looked up at him.
- He was standing at my front.
- "You can't" he said bluntly.
- "Why can't I? That nigga disgraced and accused me wrongfully."
- "You just can't cole, there are a lot of reasons why you can't do it" nick said.
- "What's number one reason nick? Tell me?" I demanded.
- ''You're gonna fall in love with her" he cooed.
- "I can't and won't" I replied.
- "Who are you kidding Cole? You will."
- "You and I no that you fall in love at the snap of a finger and once you fall in love with her its dangerous for you" he said.
- I said I won't" I insisted.
- "You will because that kendra is really pretty and who knows if you haven't already" he nagged again.
- "I said I was won't " I yelled and threw the glass cup with me on the wall breaking it in the process.
- He sighed knowing fully well that I've gotten angry.
- "Suit yourself" he said and left while I continued drinking.
