A ride home

The class went on smoothly with nothing special happening and without Lina dozing off again. After the classes were over Lina and Ivy were walking to the bus stop when suddenly a car stops before them and just one glance at the car and you'll know it was worth millions. Ivy was at the point of shouting at the stupid driver who almost had them killed when the window of the car was rolled down and the face of the driver was none other than the David Robinson. Right at that moment Lina starts praying to the gods above that they should accompany her to get her certificate and she should leave the school before she loses her mind over this spoilt brats walking and flaunting their wealth when ever an opportunity shows up. "I'm sorry if I scared you I just wanted to asked if I could give you girls a ride back home" Dave ask them. Lina was at the point of saying a solid no when Ivy close her mouth with her hand and agrees with Dave suggestion, when Lina gave Ivy a questioning look Ivy simply explain "It would help us save some money and we get a free ride back home" and Lina at that point had nothing else to say since she knows her friend is right and she needed to save money seriously because she was planning to buy her mom a gift on her birthday so she silently entered the car and they told Dave their destination and he started driving. The ride was too silent and awkward for Ivy's liking so she was thinking about a conversation topic when Dave suddenly broke the silence "So since you accepted my offer those that's means you've forgiven me Lin??" he asks Lina stays silent looking at the street through the window as if thinking about something, she really wanted to ignore David but she couldn't since she was in his car she then flashes David a force smile and replies "Yes" since she was afraid he might throw them out of the car if she dared say no while David was quite happy because he has accomplished his first step that is gaining Lina's forgiveness if only he knew that Lina didn't care about him or so she thought. After some minutes of driving they finally reached Ivy's place and drop her off Lina wanted to go with Ivy but she immediately close the door and runs off giving her friend a chance with Dave. They continue the journey in awkward silence with Dave occasionally peeking at Lina "Didn't your mom taught you it was bad to peek at someone??" Lina ask, Dave ears had a little tinge of red when Ivy expose him without holding back "Yes she did but she did tell that when I see a beautiful piece of art I can admire it all I want, so t...to me you're one of the most beautiful work of art I've ever seen" he replies scratching his neck with a silly smile on his face. Lina blushes but tries to keep her cool and says "Your playboy tricks doesn't work on me and I'm sorry to disappoint you but I don't fall for such petty tricks I'm not one of your girls you just toast around as it pleases you" Lina replies, Dave tries to reply but Lina didn't give him the chance to and says "You can leave me here my house isn't far from here so I'll continue on foot and thanks for the ride you helped me safe..." Lina couldn't complete her statement because David cut her short and says "I don't mind I can drop you directly at your place it's no big deal and I can wait for you to drive you to your job sit" he said wanting to spend more time with Lina.
