I yawned tiredly, rolling to the side as my hands touched something β or someone! I got up swiftly.
βMm, look whoβs up,β
βPhilip!β My sleepy eyes stood active. Philp, what are youβ¦?β
βRise and shine, sleepy head! Breakfast is ready.β He announced and added with a grin, βThought you might be hungry.β
I pulled the mattress down to my legs and looked down at my bosom, realizing I still had his oversized shirt on. βGod, my head.β
βDoes it hurt?β He asked, placing the tray on my legs. βLet me see.β
βItβs only a headache, you know? Iβm not dying.β I smiled as he went on examining me.
I loved his kind gestures towards me; the way he cared and didnβt mind if I was a bother in any way.
Last night when he asked me to put on his shirt having a pineapple design on it, I had thought he was joking,not until he insisted that I put it on, since there was no way I could sleep with a party dress on.
We talked in the process as I ate the slices of bread laced with jam, and the cup of cocoa he had served me with.
I had breakfast with him and we talked. I wondered why he didnβt want to eat alongside, and I asked him, βWhy donβt you want to eat?β
He moistened his lips and answered. βIβm not yet hungry.β
I frowned and shrugged the feelings off. βWell, if you say so.β
I arched forward, getting a hold of the teacup as my hair came lose. βOh, not again!β
βHere. Let me.β He said, and took the ribbon from me.
He pulled behind me a little, taking my hair in his hand, as he got it all fixed up.
βHad a little sister once,βHe said, and I looked at him.
βHad?β
βYep! She had pretty brown hair like yours,β He went on.
βW-well what happened?β
βWell, months after my parents died in that car crash, and my brother, Lionel, was no where to be found β my little sister, Rachael grew ill of pneumonia, and after few days of battling with it, died.β He narrated, the sadness in his voice clearly made out.
I couldnβt believe his parents werenβt the only people he had lost. Poor guy, tears dropped from my eyes as I listened, and I quickly wiped them off. βIβm so sorry, Philip. I canβt believe you went through all that.β
βHeh. My lifeβs really complicated,β He chuckled and got up. βYou should rest a little before you go shower. You know, cause of gas.β
Not being able to say a word or anything, not after all that Iβd heard, I just gave a nod as I watched him leave.
My conscience pricked, knowing I was keeping something from him β something only I knew. I felt really sorry knowing how wrong it was doing so. And, also how bad it was keeping him in the dark. I have to make things right. I really have to.
DEREKβS P.O.V
βWhat have I done? How am I going to tell my friends that MΓ‘rcia and I broke up?β I talked to myself, having no idea when my roommate walked in.
βDude, whatβs for lunch?β
I chuckled and shook my head. βYouβ asking me?β
βCome on, bruh. Manβs down.β He walked sluggishly to the cupboard.
I scoffed and ignored him, taking out a cosmopolitan magazine from the drawer beside, putting on my headset.
He took out a cereal pack and showed it to me, uttering something I didnβt quite figure out. Man, whatβ you saying? I canβt hear you from here.β I groaned and took off my head set.
βMaybe, you shouldnβt wear that.β He said.
βIβve got no time for your jokes. Iβm busy now.β
βYeah, busy staring at my ass,β He slapped his right butt cheek and laughed.
βYouβre crazy, you know that?β
βNot now Iβm knowing,β He shook his head and focused his eyes on the cereal. βWant some?β
I shrugged. βNah. Iβm good.β
I fixed my eyes back on the magazine, my mind totally not on it as Tricia ran in it. Wait a minute. What if I could bring Tricia instead?
My face grew pale, remembering how terribly she hates me. But I could try my luck. Yes! Thatβs what Iβd do. I smiled in delight and eased my mind at the thought.
Later in the day, I went to pay her a visit at Marionette β not like she was aware.
I waited for her at the place I had seen her humming, and I hoped and prayed for her to come.
After an hour of waiting, I saw her walking towards the bench I was seated on, and then I knew she had sighted me from afar.
βDerek, now what do you think youβre doing here?β She questioned harshly, rolling her eyes at me.
I breathed and thought of an answer to give, as she said, βI mean, what brings you here?β The anger in voice disappeared.
Is she really being nice to me? I looked in astonishment, trying to make sure I wasnβt talking to someone else. βAre you okay, Trish?β
She smiled and placed her right hand at an angle. βWell, why wouldnβt I be?β
I swallowed hard, thinking of what to say.
βWell, why are you here?β She made funny movements with her eyelashes.
βWell, um,β I made to talk, placing my hand on the bench. βSit, please -β I motioned to my side, and she sat.
I was actually liking this side of her β the side that actually portrayed her meekness.
I cleared my throat and began talking. βSo, Trish. Thereβs something I need to ask you -β I examined the look on her face for a second. Finding not a hint of anger, I continued. βSomething I know you wouldnβt agree to,β
βWhy did you bring it up, then?β She sprang up to her feet.
βJust listen!β I rolled my eyes at her, and she breathed and sat back down.
βWhat do you want?β
βI justβ¦β
βYes?β
βUmβ¦ I was only thinking if you couldβ¦β
βTricia!!β An angry black girl made towards. βHow dare you try to kiss my girlfriend?!β She spat furiously.
Tricia got up instantly. βKaren? Karen, when did you get back?β
βIt doesnβt matter.β She snapped at her. βNow tell me why you tried to make out with Lilian when clearly you turned me down?β
I stood stunned by the scene. What is she talking about? How could Tricia have done that when sheβs not even gay?
βKaren, I can explain,β Tricia looked at me and back at her. βI never tried to kiss anyone, Karen. Lilian was the one that came at me andβ¦β
βYou big lying brat!β She landed a slap on Triciaβs face before she could finish her sentence
βHey, hey! Just who do you think you are?β I pulled Tricia behind me, boiling hard.
βDerekβ¦β
βNo, Tricia! I wonβt allow this!β
βYou wonβt? Well, why donβt you ask your good-for-nothing girlfriend what she did?!β She gritted and said to Trish, βYou should count yourself lucky that your boyfriend was here to defend you. Bitch!β
I turned to Tricia the minute she left and I could tell how shaken she looked. βIs what she said really true?β
βDerek, please donβt make things worse.β She sighed and threw her face away.
βThen your answer says it all!β
βDerek, please!β Her lashes shot up. βAnd what was that about you defending me back there?β
βHuh?β
βYes! You shouldnβt have done that. I mean, why canβt you just leave me alone?!
βWell, thatβs the problem, Tricia. I canβt!β
βAnd why is that?β
βBecause I love you!β
~~~TBC~~~
Derek leave our Tricia alone na. Itβs not by force πππ
