Hidden threats

.........

Annie grabbed the knob to her new room and turned it. She pushed open the door and entered the room.

 As soon as she entered the room, her jaw dropped, she looked at her her room in shock, her eyes dangling through the whole room.

 She gnawed at the room as us walked further in. She felt like she's in some rich billionaires room.

 The room was designed so beautifully, it had to be the best room she step in so far.

 She looked at the belongings there and saw that they were hers, Zayan truly sent maids to go and pack her stuffs.

 She was still lost in the admiration when Zayan entered the room.

 He walked toward her and lean a little bit closer to her ear, " Is it that beautiful? "

 " Ah! " Annie flinched in shock, she looked at him like she had just seen a ghost.

 " Would you stop scaring me like that? " she punched him casually.

 " I didn't know that you're such a weakling " he said casually.

 He entered the room as Annie walked after him.

 He didn't even act like it's not his room, he went on to sit on the sofa.

 " Now that you're close to me, there are rules you must follow " he said.

 " Like what? " Annie asked.

" As you know, my brother's resuming soon, never talk to my brother, we hated each other " he replied.

 " And? " Annie asked.

" If you can keep to that, we're okay " he smiled.

 " Care to come to my place tonight? for a little housewarming party? " he asked.

 " Well that won't hurt but is that alright? " Annie asked as she nodded her head slowly.

 " Like won't the school object? a man and a woman? alone? in a room? " she said one after the other, putting stress on each words.

 " Come on, I'm Zayan. Who the hell do they think they are to control me? I do whatever I'm pleased with " he replied with a chuckle.

 " Okay then, see you tonight " Annie said, expecting him to stand up and leave her room.

 Instead, he became even more laid-back, resting his back on the sofa.

 " Ain't you going out? " she asked.

" I just want to stay for a little while, pudding " he smiled sheepishly.

 " Huh? pudding? " she exclaimed.

" Yeah, your personality really resembled pudding " he replied.

 " How did I resemble pudding? " she asked with a creased brow.

 " You look tough on the outside but when one gets to know you, you're soft and sweet " he replied with a more beaming smile.

 Annie couldn't help but to eye him, is this a prince or a playboy who loved to rizz?

 " Get out of my room, see you tonight " Annie said and pulled him up.

 She dragged him out of her room.

" Wait..I.." he wasn't able to finish his words when she slammed the door in his face.

 He was dumbfounded, " I thought I gave her this room " he muttered like a confused soul.

 ......…..

 Just as Zayan promised, Linda has already gotten a new roommate. It's a young mistress from a very wealthy family.

 " Hi, I'm Linda Stuarts " Linda stretched her hand to the new girl, a beautiful smile lightened on her face.

 The lady on the other hand, just looked at her hand and didn't reply, she didn't bother taking her hand.

 " Well that's rude, ain't you supposed to at least tell me your name? we're roommates for goodness sake " Linda said.

 " Amanda Luke " she said briefly and started arranging her stuffs.

 " Well, little miss Amanda seems to have a temper, did I anger you somehow? " Linda asked.

 Amanda stopped what she's doing, she raised her head up and looked at Linda.

 " How the hell did you convince Zayan to make me your roommate? " she asked.

 "Oh, so it's about the prince " Linda rolled her eyes.

 " If not? Zayan would never trade me for anything but just some words from you made him give up on me " she said.

 " Well, it's because the prince is interested in me " Linda said with pride, as she brought out a nail filer and start filing her nails.

 " You? did you look at yourself in the mirror this morning? I think you didn't, with your cow like bruises, do you Zayan is blind? " Amanda scoffed.

 Linda looked at Amanda and said, " If not? tell me why he'll agree to make you my roommate? " 

 " What exactly do you want from me? why do you want me? " she asked.

 " Darling, you're asking the right question at the wrong time, that should be your first question " Linda said.

 Linda rested her hand on Amanda's shoulder, " because you're too close to Zayan, I figured out that he may love you so I'll trade my dumb roommate for you " 

 " What if Zayan then turned out to like your roommate? " she asked.

 " Although my roommate is pretty, she's dumb and she's from a low background, Zayan would never like her and with time, I'll be closer to Zayan " Linda smiled.

 " I thought you ran away from home? to escape your stepdad from satisfying his lust from you? " Amanda smirked.

 " Your investigated me huh? I came here for Zayan, I want to be his wife so that everyone that made me suffer would bwo at my feet " Linda replied.

 " Then I bet we won't have it easy Linda, because I'm not gonna give up on Zayan and he's not gonna give up on me because I'm his most open loose end " she smiled victoriously.

.........

 Annie is already dressed for the housewarming party, even though it's only next door, she still wanted to look good.

 Even though things here is not really eventful and exciting, she found the life here better than at home.

 She exit her room and walked toward the room next door, she knocked on the door.

 As if someone is already waiting for the knock, the door immediately opened, revealing the already excited Zayan.

 " Welcome to my room pudding " he smiled, gesturing her to enter.

 Hearing his ridiculous nickname, she smiled and entered.

 " Click! click! " camera flashed two times. Behind the corner of their walkway, someone was secretly taking pictures of them.

 " Done " the person muttered as he posted the pictures on the school website.
