Chapter 8 - chapter 8

Time to go.

Let's see how my presentation will go. I believe I will do the best. Because I am the best. Whether he believes or not.

Again I ended up by thinking about him. What's happening to me????🤦🤦🤦🤦

I am in a cab now. TPS I mean superior booked it for me. He is such a nice person. He took me to his home, and even for my comfort he called his mother over there and Had the breakfast, I made. And booked a cab for me too.

I am going to home now. Rachelle must be waiting for me. I told you about my roommate and my best friend. Yes, her name is Rachelle. She is doing a fine arts course here. She has potential in fine arts. When I decided to come here for my internship, I told her about my plan and then when I asked my parents and they agreed, I asked her to come with me. We together talked with her parents. Just like my parents, her parents was a bit hard but we made it. And we came to this city together. She joined a 6 months course of fine Arts.

"Miss, we are here." The cab driver said.

I got off the car. And said " thank you for driving me here safely."

The superior has paid the fare.

We are at my home. It's not posh and big but a safe and sound place to live. I rang the bell.

Rachelle has opened the door. She looks very mad.

Rachelle is a nice girl. She is shorter than me, she is fair and she has long hair. She is like a kid always smiling and cheerful. No worries at all.

" jazzelle, where the hell were you? You aren't answering my phone. You know, you scared me to death. Why are you standing still. Answer me." She started shouting at me and didn't even let me in.

" will you let me in first." I said very calmly.

I got in and sat on the dining table. I drank water.

Rachelle constantly asking me where was I? And why didn't I came home?

I took a deep breath and said,

" I was at my superior's house."

She was very shocked. She loudly said, " what?? Do you mean that dracula?

I said, " why are you calling him dracula. He is such a nice person. You should respect him."

" you spent a night at his home and your behaviour towards him changed so suddenly. What's going on? Are you two????" she asked with a sceptic face.

"It's not like what you thought just now. When you called me last night, I told you okay but then when I checked my handbag I get to know I forgot my keys at home. So I couldn't come to home. I was in his office at the time, he heard me crying and said

" want to take shelter at my home, it's unsafe for a girl to stay outside at night."

( I was somewhat doing his mimicry)

She was listening to me quietly but she was a bit shocked because she knows what kind of relationship I have with him. She has always seen me swearing at him, and now I am praising him, it's an indigestible thing for her.

She is very quiet so I said, " now say something."

She loudly shouted my name, " jazzelle,"

I exclaimed and said, "hmmm???"

She sat on the chair next to me and pulled my chair near her and she came very close to me and said,

" you and him!!!!! Alone!!!?? At his home. Tell me the truth, what he did to you."

I pushed her slightly and said,

" come on. Don't you know me? Nothing has happened. And we weren't alone. He especially called his mom over there."

She stood up and said, "what?

Jazzelle, I know about you, but this guy!!! He is so boring."

I stood up and bumped her head and said,

" idiot, he is gentleman. Now stop thinking too much. Have you had breakfast?"

"Yeah." She replied.

"Now show me your work, you must have drawn a picture yet." I said like I am her teacher or something.

"Yeah, I did." Her confident voice is appreciative.

She took me to show her paintings. And here is the painting.

" it's good. Keep practicing. Do you have classes today?" I asked

" no everyone is tired. So...." She stopped and looked at me like she wants to say ' you know what I mean, right?

I smiled and said, " okay, I am not making lunch today, I am in a hurry.. I'll have my lunch there."

" Then me?" she said like hello kitty.

" there are some instant ramen noodles over there. You can have your favourite one."

" you are the best. And be careful with the food. You have many kind of allergies." She hugged me and said.

I hurriedly prepared everything and left the house. Rachelle fall asleep. She must be very tired.
