Friends

After lectures I went back home (not my home actually)

I went up to aunt and ask if she needs anything from me ,she noticed my mood and told me to go upstairs and rest.i love this woman  

I was about reaching my room when diamond call out to me 

"You are back so early"he asked 

"Yeah I don't have much lectures "I replied 

He noticed my mood and walk up to me .

"Is something wrong "he asked 

I look up to him but couldn't find any word to say .

"Do you wanna talk about it "I have a listening ear ".he spoke with a cute smile on his face

"You just met this morning "I replied him with  a frown

"People can be friends within a minute"he replied back to me ,this time he was coming closer 

"I'll go if you don't want to talk about it "he told me and was about walking away .before I call out to him 

"Where should we seat"I asked

"Let's go to the garden then ."he smiled at me and walk away .

When I got there ,he was already seated,I joined him and sat on the chair close to me 

"So you and Anthony attends the same lecture".he asked

"Unfortunately yes "I replied 

"His he the reason you are in this mood ".he asked 

"Why do you think so".I asked

"I'm just asking"he replied back 

"He called me a church rat today ".I replied

He was quite for a while before he look up at me and came closer.before I could process what's was happening .he instantly hugged me 

I was shocked but volunteering hug him back .his scent was so good and tempting ,I didn't know when I felt tears coming out from my eyes .I started pouring out all the tears I have been holding back .he just kept mumuring little words to me that I cant hear or understand.

After a while I move away from his arms and wipe away my tears .he gave me an assuring smile and move away.

"Sorry I ruined your shirt "I told him 

"It's okay "it was worth it".he replied

I didn't know when I started talking 

"I lost my parents to a car accident ,and after the burial aunt penny decided to take me in .I don't know what i did ,but as soon as I walk into this house , Anthony hated me with passion ,I try to be friendly with him but it's keeps getting worse .

He keeps reminding me how  we weren't in the same class and all that .I did my best to be on his good book but realized it was getting worse .so I decided to play his game with him ".

After I finish speaking those words diamond move closer to me and held my hands .

"I'm here now ,and I'll make sure he doesn't hurt you. "he said those words looking straight into my eyes 

"For how long will you be here"I asked 

"Four months ".he replied 

"So can we be friends ".he asked 

I brought forth my hand to him and he took it 

"I'll take that as a yes "he replied me with a smile
