Kaylie!!! Kaylie!!!! wake up, we are going to be late again.
urgggh... Kaylie groaned as she buried her head into the pillow and drew her blanket over her head sleepily.
we don't have to be there until 9 right. there's still time, she groaned. she was never a morning person.
Joan rolled at her eyes at her, clutched the edge of her blanket and yanked it off. she looked like a child, rolled up into a ball.
lemme sleep some more, she murmured as she shooed Joan away with one hand.
Don't you dare, it's already 8:35am. we are going to be late.
What!!! Kaylies eyes shot open as she stood up and stared at the clock adjacent her bed.
shit.... 8:37.
she jumped out of bed and ran into the bathroom comically taking off her clothes one after the other as she ran.
This is exactly what I thought would happen, Joan burst into laughter.
Joan and Katie had been friends since highschool and now they are in their final year of college.
Kaylie was a final year student with major in business administration while Joan majored in home management at the institution of arts Oakland, New York city. The final exams was scheduled to take place 2 weeks from now.
Today was supposed to be a breakfast meeting between the staff and the final year students and they were going to be late again as usual.
Joan opened up the blinds and rays of sunlight illuminated the room.
They lived in a modest two bedroom flat, two blocks away from the school. The building consists of 5 flats and theirs was the second to the last floor.
Joan wandered into the kitchen to get a cup of coffee to fully awaken her and charge her for the day ahead.
She poured herself a cup after it had finished brewing from the coffee making machine. she blew on it and sipped it silently as she got lost in thought. Her parents has rented the apartment for them when they got into the school and now after 4 years of studying, independence and craziness, they will be moving back to Seattle to look forjobs and start their life. They had already submitted applications to a few companies and were awaiting favourable replies.
Ta- da, how do I look ? Kaylie asked appearing from no where and surprising Joan as she twirled around, breaking Joan's train of thoughts and bringing her back to present.
what are you thinking about?
it's nothing. Mi amor, you look beautiful.
Gracias. Kaylie laughed as she twirled again and courtesied. she was dressed in a plain white long sleeved T shirt with plaid pants with a pair of low heels. Her ombre blonde hair was packed up into a pony tail with tendrils of hair that escaped the scrunchie lying at the sides of her face, no jewellery. she looked gorgeous.
You sure know how to turn the ordinary to extraordinary, Joan gestured.
Why thank you Miss Joan Jones, one of my many talents, Kaylie laughed as she bowed playfully.
Well if you done entertaining me, we should get going, so we don't become late.
After you, madam. Kaylie picked up the car keys from the counter and handed it to her.
Joan picked up her jacket and opened the front door.
out you go... come on.
I suppose there isn't time to quickly rush to Starbucks and grab something to eat.
Miss Kaylie Acreman.... Joan shouted as she opened the driver's door. Don't you have any shame.
I'm just kidding, Kaylie laughed as she got in. where is your sense of humor?
it better be a joke because we are already late, we will get Starbucks after.
okay ma'am.
now fasten your seat belt, let's go attend that God damn meeting.
Joan reversed, drove to the gate and honked.
The security man came out and opened the gate.
Good morning Joe, they chorused.
Morning girls, have a nice day. He waved as they drove out.
THEY got to the school at 8:54 am. The valet collected the keys and drove the car away while the girls silently hurried into the auditorium.
oh my God, people are already inside, Kaylie whispered.
I told you, Joan glared at her as they hurried to their respective seats.
I'll deal with you later.
Few minutes later, after everyone was seated, the proprietor of the institution came in and commenced the meeting.
one hour later, the meeting ended and the students trooped out of the hall.
Kaylie wait up, Sasha called. Sasha was also a final year student of business administration. she was already engaged and planning to get married next month.
Hey, what's up?
Nothing, I just want to see if you wanted to grab something to eat.
Ohhh, you read my mind, I'm so famished. let me just let Joan know.
She looked around and saw Joan standing on the other side talking to some of her course mates. she gestured at her and Joan nodded in response.
okay let's go, before I faint.
Sasha laughed as they walked out of the hall. They cornered into a small cafe in the next block" Twinings cafe" an extension of Starbucks and sat down. The waiter came to attend to them almost immediately.
I'll have a cup of English breakfast tea and some chocolate chip cookies then a bag of bagels to go. Thank you, Kaylie smiled.
while I'll have a cup of espresso and some pretzels... Sasha answered as she handed the menu back to the waiter.
so what are you guys plans after graduation?
well Joan and I plan to move back to Seattle, rent an apartment and start working right away. how about you?
well I plan on getting married to my fiance and go on our honeymoon, Sasha answered dreamily.
okay... then what? Kaylie asked.
Then I'll stay at home and raise our children.
While working or no?
Daryn said he wants me to stay at home and take care of the children. he's going to take care of all my needs.
so you are going to be a house wife? Kaylie asked.
Yes, she smiled. is there a problem with that? Sasha raised her brow questionly?
no of course not, Kaylie put on a fake smile. if that what you want.
yes, that's what I want. He will treat me like the queen that I am.
sure... Kaylie murmured.
The waiter brought their food and served them. He then handed over the bag of bagels to Kaylie. they started eating and engaging in small talk when
SUDDENLY, girls started screaming.
All those crazy fan girls, Kaylie sighed.
oh my God it's Thai Rivera.
