Chapter 9

The cab dropped us right in front of the mall and drove off after being paid. She stretched and smiled at me saying. "Let's go get you some wears Seth" and walking in. If she had yell like always she would have sounded like I have no cloths at all.

Its all her fault not telling me we were spending the night here and here she is sounding like I get no cloths. I followed her behind and before I could ask her to stay put, she had already disappeared to the girls side to test almost all the nice things that I know she won't wear some.

I picked up two pears of shirt and jeans before heading to her side, she had made all the female works allow her test all the cloths. I only came to ask if she was done so we'd go but just then I was sat to help choose a favourite outfit for her.

*What a pain*

I sat and watched her test all the out fit she has chosen, some look smart, crazy, sexy and cute on her but she ended up picking only two. We went over to pay when i sighed her staring at a sliver pendant on the jeweleries glass, she was amazed with it but then she frowns and walked away from it immediately.

She most have thought of it again. It was finally our turn to pay for our outfit, got our receipt and left. i thought its best we get something to eat in case we get hungry during the night. We were finally done and heading to the apartment at about 5:45pm when the sun is almost down.

We dropped all that we had brought close to our bag pack, she felt she was stinking and headed to the bathroom to get some shower while, I try to set everywhere for us to feel comfortable.

"Seth" she called from the bathroom "Yes" I answered "come closer to the door please!"

I walked to the door. "What do you want?"

"I forget my towel in my purple bag and also my lotion. Would you please help me with it?" She asked and without a reply I went over to get it. I hesitated to open the bag cause I feel I'm trying to invade in a woman's privacy. But maybe she has nothing to hide since she's letting me take something from the bag.

I gathered a lot of courage by inhaling and exhaling before opening the bag and immediately, I froze to what I saw, my body, eyes everywhere was trembling. Its not something I can just make myself say it out.

I took out the white towel and her lotion and passed it under the door by opening the door a little, I heard her mumble a 'thank you' but I didn't stand to reply her.

Not long she came out dressed in her purple pajamas with her hair parked in a bun. "Do you wanna shower?" She asked and I nodded wrapping my towel around my neck as i walked pass her.

I didn't take more that ten minutes I came out, I met her scattering all the crispy chips in a bowl and dropping it on the center table that I almost forgot to mention earlier and some chess board and other forms of game, I am not a game person so I don't even know how to play or how it works.

"What you doing?" I asked sitting on an arm chair beside hers as I look at everything around, I sighed trying to hold myself, the place I have arranged has been shattered. It made me remember Michael who always spoils all that I have done to prove his better but for once I never tried to beat him but a day would come where no one would be able to save him.

"So Seth, let's play this chess board game?" She asked and I shook my head. "I can't play it, maybe something easier." I answered and I watch her place her hand under her chin thinking of a game for us to play.

She then finally clicked her finger after getting one. "Let's play rock, paper and scissor, I know you know this one right?" She asked and I nodded.

Despite, while I was a kid I watch my friends or should I say classmate play, I was never interested in learning but I read in book that it just to have fun nothing more. Maybe I should give it a try.

"First rule, no cheating, when you fail the winner ask you a dare or truth and you choose one, understood"

I nodded.

"Rule 2, no changing of question, you must answer or your life would be reduce by taking all your scores understood."

I nodded again, this might end up being tough. "So then let's start. "Rock, paper, scissor" and we both had a fist boom.

The second she had a paper and I had a rock so she cover me and I lost. "So, truth or dare?" She asked.

"Truth" i answered without hesitation.

"okay, listen to your questions, how do you feel spending this time with me?" She asked and I smiled with a shrug. "It was fun actually having you around, I mean like I said I don't keep friends so maybe after we return home everyone goes his way right?" I asked and she shook her head.

"Nope, next round"

The next round I got a scissors and she got a paper so I was to cut her and ask her a question, which I don't know what to ask.

"Truth or dare?" I asked

"I'll go for truth"

"So, what were you like as a kid?" I asked when I had nothing in mind, she smiled and Crossed her legs on the arm chair and looked up at the celling. "Here I thought you don't care about people. But your asking me, well when I was a kid, I was quite a stubborn girl and a troublesome one, and also friendly and emotional. At age 10 they found out about my sickness but it was unremovable. But they removed a kidney. I almost missed a year of school due to being in such situation."

"I always get ill and would be admitted at the hospital, my mum and dad kidneys weren't a match to mine at the time they were finding, the second one got infected immediately. At this age I was lucky to survive actually but back then because of my sudden sickness they thought they'd loss me but they were lucky".

"My one kidney that remains is getting affected, I wonder why I still live"she said looking down at her feet so sad.

"Would you be given an additional kidney, if they match?" I asked and she shrugged not having any idea. "I'm willing to offer you my kidney at least so you can survive to see the beauty of the world" I said out of the blue and she looks at me in shock, her face heathen a little as she burst into a strong laughter. It might sound unserious to her but to me it is.

"Your joking right?" She giggles and I shrugged. "Let's just continue" I says after staring at me for a moment. I know she doesn't wanna hear it so we continue, she kept winning asking me all sort of stupid questions about my girlfriend and what I feel for her, we almost forgot that time has pass, we ate to our satisfaction until she couldn't move again.

"You should head to bed" I said but she insisted until we play one more round, we did and she got a rock while I got a scissors, "so what now?" I asked standing behind her as she sits on the ground. "A truth or dare?" She asked me and he chose a dare.

"I prayed for you to choose that, so I dare you to take me to bed" she said and i froze, i thought it was a joke but she was serious. I have to play my duty. I grabbed her in my arms and laid her comfortably on the bed and asked if she'd want to drink water.

She nodded and so i headed to the fridge

Wheb I returned with two bottle and asked if she still want but I didn't get an answer. I opened my bottle and drank enough then turned to drop the bottle when I heard her call me. " Seth" I stopped.

"Does it really hurts to die, I mean I am very scared of dying anytime I think of it, I fear a lot but have no idea on what to do" she said as i felt my heart aches, I recalled what i saw in her bags again. Now I feel the fear she is feeling.

Its does hurt to die and it also hurts the person when his lived one is gone yet everyone will die. immediately I recalled again. I did not answer and I watch her roll on her right facing me.

"Would you mind sleeping next to me?" She asked politely, I wanted to object but at least let me fulfil the wish before I can no more. I nodded with a sly smile and walks up to her as she laid beside her, we shared the blanket but we both looked different side.

She wished me a goodnight and I switched my lamb off so do her, I closed my eyes to sleep when I heard her sniffing in her tears, I felt It ache but I ignored it to sleep.
