First love
Nadia being at home has been really fun and kinda off distracting. I and Ralph haven't spoken since she came because I have been busy with preparation for university and the process of part time schooling in Windsor university.
Today Ralph call me out for a date, I tried to giv excuses but he was so persuasive about it. the venue was where we first met in the lake.
Nadia help me to dress up
Cousin you haven't told me who is this Mr prefect of yours
Well cousin he is ...
A call interrupted me, It was Ralph
Hey teddy bear
Hey love
So are you ready
Not really
I am already there
My love please just wait for me
Ok then
Bye love
Bye love
It looks like this your Mr prefect is also a patient guy Nadia said
Off course he is
True, he has no choice to be patient, don't he know that his girlfriend is an Elison
Don't start with that
Ok ok just come back on time
Ok ma
I pick my bag and make my way to the sitting room, aunt Tonia was reading there I decided not to disturb her as I made my way to the lake.
I got there and the lake side was arranged with flowers and lot of things
Ralph what's all this
My love, I decided to do something nice for my girlfriend is that a bad thing
No baby I am just surprised
We sat down on the mat lay on the floor as we observed our picnic there. We are and laugh cuddling and gisting until Ralph phone rang he excuse himself to answer it then he came back in another 10 minutes his phone rang again and he left to answer this happen conciously until I got feed up
Ralph who is calling you
It nobody
It nobody and you are leaving to answer the call
I said it is nobody Sophia he shouted
Ooh ok then. We will see anytime you don't have a phone call to answer.
I left angrily, I got home and just buried my head in my pillow.
Nadia notice my mood and left the room for me. What exactly is happen why is he acting out, Ralph has never shouted at me this is so off. I tried to calm myself by thinking of our nice moments together. I guess he will come back to himself soon let me just give him space I think that is what he needs. Nadia enters the room
Cousin are you ok
Off course I am
Hope Mr prefect did not hurt you
No nothing of that such happened. We just had a little argument,but we are fine
There is no relationship without an argument, I remember my ex we always had to argue who was going to get the ice cream at the end of the day it was him.
Nadia let out a relief smile
Cousin love is sweet, enjoy it while it last
Thank you Nadia, we need to finish up packing
We still have one week left Sophie calm down
Ok ok I have heard you
Let go get ice-cream
We took the car to get ice cream, we got there and all eyes were on us I can't really say is but all eyes were on Nadia. We made our way to the counter and Nadia decided to use her charm to get us ice cream at a lower price. I couldn't believe Nadia was flirting with the ice cream guy. It looks like the guy fall for it he collected and her number and gave us three ice cream instead of two with extra toppings. I wanted to talk but Nadia gave me sign to keep quiet. I guess being beautiful pays off after all.
We enter the car and made our way home we decided to link our ice cream in the playground then going home because we know if we went home they will make us buy for everybody and I wasn't interested in doing that.
When we were done weade our way home pretending like nothing happens. We got to the house and met dinner. After dinner I went to my room to apply for one of the best rooms in king's according to what I have heard if you do not apply on time you won't get a reasonable to my luck Nadia had already applied for a room for the two of us and it was the best two man room. How exciting can today be.
Nadia enters the room on a phone call. It looks like the person she was talking to was giving her a hard time. When she was done she lay down on the bed and face the opposite side
Nadia what is the issue?
It not cousin I just want to sleep
Ooh ok if you say so, I am here if you need anybody to talk to.
Ok , good night
Good night
I faced my table as I open my laptop to type lately I have been working on a novel and I plan to finish it before I leave for college. It will be nice to get Mrs. Bronte to read it. I started typing as the words flow though my head to my pen sounding like a prefect rhythm of music.
I looked at the time and it was 2:00am I really need to get some sleep I have been writing since 10:00pm. I saved the update and close my laptop and went to bed.
Trying to sleep the thought of Ralph came up I don't think Ralph is ok or am I the problem as usual what is questions ringing in my mind I finally gave in to sleep.
****
It has been three days and I haven't heard from Ralph I decided to reach out to him but he didn't answer my calls as usual in three days time I will be off to London and I don't know if I and Ralph relationship can survive long distance, this thought as really crowded my feelings for Ralph and I wasn't sure I still wanted him.
Getting ready for school shopping I heard someone sobbing in the restroom I open the door just to find out it is Nadia
Nadia love what is it
Andrew just broke up with me
I thought you guys broke up before
Yes we did and we came back together
Ooh I see
Now he is saying he doesn't want to have anything to do with me
Nadia stop crying, remember we are going to kings and in that place there are many fine guy who will love you for you so please stop crying. Saying that to her made me remember Ralph the first guy that loves me for me. I console Nadia and we dressed up for shopping.
Aunt Tonia came to call us as she was the one taking us shopping I like when aunt Tonia takes us for shopping then mum because she let me buy what I want not what she want for me.
We arrived at the shopping plaza, I and Nadia made our way inside the plaza. I went towards the canvas obviously I wasn't going to wear hills in college, I look at my left and a figure that looks familiar was standing there I went closer and found out it was Ralph when he noticed I was coming closer he started walking. Why is he avoiding me. I increased my speed and cut up with him
Ralph what is wrong with you
I should be asking you that question
Why I ask looking confused
Why are you stocking me
I wasn't, I came here to shop, why are you avoiding me Ralph
I am not
Then what I'd happening
Sophia I am not in the right stage of mind to explain what is happening
At least just call me
I am not Sure I can do that
Are you breaking up with me Ralph
No teddy bear, right now I just need space and I want you to know that it is not your fault
Ok then
He hug me and lay a kiss on my head and left. Something is definitely off about Ralph I just hope when the time is right he will open up to me.
Aunt Tonia approach me as she gave me three hills
I know you don't like hills, but a girls warrobe is incomplete without hills, this hills are colours you can wear with any clothes black, gold and silver
Thank you aunt Tonia
Don't sweat it , I don't know if your cousin is buying the full place
I laughed. We met Nadia who had four bags filled up indeed she was buying the full place. Aunt Tonia paid for things as we went home.
.....
The day I have been afraid of the day I have to leave for London is here. Nadia seem excited while me on the other side was afraid.
We did our final packing, I decided to bid farewell to Ralph when I got to the house only Mrs bronte was home so I left her a note to give Ralph.
Looking at the time it was an hour for my flight I pack my bags to the car my mum and dad bid us farewell as aunt Tonia decided to see us off to the airport. We arrived at the airport it has really been long since I travel.
In less than an hour I heard the flight attendant call my name followed by Nadia name aunt Tonia kiss us on the head and bid omus farewell I was about entering the plan when I heard someone call my name I look back and it was Ralph he was running to me.
When he got closer he hugged and said
"My teddy bear I am so sorry for the way things has been going just know that you are always in my heart."
We kissed and I enter the plane.
