CHAPTER FOUR

It's Sunday night and I am cramming to do all my home works and outputs to be

submitted tomorrow, I have the whole weekend to do so, but sleeping is more fun. You got to

relax all your muscles for the whole week of stress.

After I’ve done my work and found that it is still too early to sleep, 11 pm. I visited my

social media accounts just scrolling to feeds finding something worth my eyes.

I almost jumped out when a video played. It was Celine's video, singing.

Chest to chest

Nose to nose

Palm to palm

We were always just that close...

Wrist to wrist

Toe to toe

Lips that felt just like the inside of a rose

I zoned out, this was the first time i hear her sing and her voice makes me so calm. It’s as

if something was pulling me more into that voice. The voice I wanted to scream my name. fck

that thought.

I wake up the next morning and get ready for school. I fall asleep listening to Celine's

voice, and today I felt ecstatic to start my day.

As I climbed up the stairs through our room, I heard giggles and basically gossiping girls.

Ugh. Too early. I made my way silently hoping they would not notice me but a voice stopped

me.

"Max! Good morning!" Jane smiled and the rest of their group greeted as well. I saw

Celine from the corner of my eye and I absentmindedly check my watch 6:56 am. And as if

Annie knows this, she spoke...

"Celine's early now. We know max, we know" they all laughed making Celine slap

Annie's shoulder.

"y-yeah. That's nice. You'll not miss some lessons anymore" I smiled referring to the

lessons she'd missed because of her lates. But there is this little voice in me saying how pretty

she is today.

"I just moved in. my apartment is 10 minute-walk to school now" she replied coyly

"I wonder what makes you moved in" Sarah said

"..or whooo" Annie smiled knowingly looking at me as if I have to do with it and again

she gained a slap from Celine. We all laugh at how Annie and Celine bickered like cats and dogs.

"mind if we get inside now?" looking through my watch saying it’s time for us to get in

They all nodded and we walked through the hallways altogether.

The class gives us all headaches considering it was just Monday to start with. With all the

projects and pressures that demands students to excel. I think every student needs certain

motivation but not always just excel but also to learn and have fun while studying, how can

students learn if people kept on giving expectations and put them down when those expectations

were not meet.

Anyway, Gideon and I decided to go to the cafeteria to buy some drinks.

"One lemonade please" he shoots me a questioning look and I immediately answered him

"and iced coffee" then gave our money to the cashier.

We are waiting for our drinks when I saw Celine and some girls walking, seeing her from

the back I noticed how sexy her butt moves as she walks and hot long and slim were her legs but

then, I overheard two girls passing by. That's my super powers.

"you knew Celine?" my ears ticked when I heard Celine's name, as the girl with a red hair

ask the other girl who seemed to look at Celine and her friends. She looked at Celine with an

intent.

"I liked her a lot but, she just broke my heart"

That's the last thing I heard before the bell rang indicating that our break was over and we

just gotten our drinks. I have somewhat had an idea of what was happening but I doubt it.

"Let's go" Gideon grab my hand and we head out the cafeteria.

The whole time my attention was not in the discussion but with what I had overheard.

Broke her heart? Is she Celine's ex or something? Does Celine know her? and lastly... is Celine

into GIRLS!??

I don't know why but somehow I feel a little pain in my chest thinking she could be

Celine's ex yet a tingling sensation knowing Celine’s into girls. Why?
