Samra p.o.v
Am a bit nervous about Brian, he's absolute cute and sexy but at the same time I fear that I might cause trouble for him.
He's not like us, born rich he worked hard to be here and to know everything about him, I did some background checks and he happen to be one of the students whom my mom has offered scholarship to.
I don't want to be the reason he loses his scholarship for and am not judging his lifestyle either but am afraid to be left alone am already used to the fact my mom chose her career over me.
But if I choose to take the risk am scared to be left alone again, people might envy me for having such a powerful mom but they don't know the story behind me.
I might have everything that every girl desires but am still empty inside and now I happen to like someone who not even close to have what I have.
He lives in an ordinary life which means he doesn't meet my standards and for that am afraid mom might reject him for it or even take back his scholarship.
I don't to cause drama where people start spreading rumours about me,especially when am the daughter of a woman with power.
People might praise her and respect her for her generosity and supportive to the society but only I know her true identity and how judgemental she is with people who have financial difficulties.
Am afraid she might treat him like some poor boy and get him cancelled by the school.
Here I am now standing in front of him as he asks me out, am afraid to give him false hope and I can't even say no either.
As he spoke almost I did was to stare at him and not utter a word all I did was nod and walked away with Martha.
As we entered the class for English literature, martha nudged my arm and raised her head in disbelief.
"What?" I asked as I I whispered to her.
"Why did you walk away when he asked you out?" She asked.
"I don't know, I just had no other way to respond to him" I defended myself.
"You could easily reject his offer, you left him standing there like a fool someone might think he got rejected since you walked away rudely"
"Hey... I... I just don't know what to say, I didn't want to reject him and I can't give him empty hope either" I said as I thought of it.
"What do you mean you can't reject nor give hope it only one, you either accept him or reject him simple" she said as she balanced her hands.
"No it's not simple, maybe for you not me I..." the teacher entered before I could say more.
"Are you for real samra, sure it's simple just choose one" she said as she opened her book.
Easy for you to say.
I didn't say anything else so I just listened to the lecture when suddenly Martha nudged me again and I looked at her,she pointed behind her and looked at what she was pointing.
I saw Sophia sliding a paper to Brian, he looked at it and the next second he was scramble it and his facial expression showed that he didn't like what she wrote to him.
I looked back to my book when martha whispered something to my ears.
"Do you think she might confessed her love to him that's so embarrassing" she whispered.
I didn't say anything but what she said made me think if that might be true.
Maybe could that be possible.
Soon the class ended and I closed my books to pick them as I stood up,I looked back to see Brian but he was already gone.
Martha and I left together, as we were heading to our lockers, sophia appeared in front of us.
Out of nowhere, martha said that she would be embarrassed if she confessed her love just to get rejected.
I didn't understand why she was saying out loud until I realised who she was referring to.
Sophia stood still and then turned to us, she and martha had a heated argument until everyone who was standing by heard everything.
Some were whispering to each other and I couldn't take it, so I pulled Martha away and we both came to our dorm room.
"Was that really necessary Martha?" I asked as I was angry for what she did.
"Why are you angry for,besides I stated the fact its obvious she confessed her feelings to him" she said.
"How could you be sure that she was confessing her feelings, maybe she was asking about his injuries " I said as I remembered seeing her that night.
"Injuries?what are you talking about, don't tell me he got injured when he sneaked into your house Oh..My God samra" she squealed.
"Martha shhhh be quite and yes Brian came to see me that night and am assuming she was the one with him when I saw him limping as he got into the car " I said as I wondered whether I was right or not.
"Who knows only he is the one to tell but anyways it could be what am assuming too,samra stop thinking about your mom and make a move already or else you will regret it " she encouraged me.
"You're right I should but am afraid to get caught, you know how things work, I might get hate for being the one who gets him expelled, what do I do Martha?" I whined.
"Your mom isn't here right,then why don't you date him as she's always busy, you don't think she has you being followed around does she?" She asked me curiously.
"I don't think so, she's not the one who can do that can she?" I asked her.
"You seem to forget that your mom is a powerful woman and has guards everywhere she could be having one to follow you around" she said.
"You coul be right but I don't think that no, she wouldn't do that who am I kidding she obviously does that " I said.
As I remember a time when a guard took me out of a hospital when one of my friends got injured in an accident.
She made sure I wasn't involved in it as a witness. She made sure that I never testified against the person behind it.
Now am scared to get myself involved with Brian am having difficulty in making a decision but i can't let this chance slip away either.
"You're right am going to do it" i said as i smiled at Martha.
"Really? So you're going to take a risk and date him?" She asked.
"Yeah I am, tomorrow morning I'll accept it and go for it." I said as I thought of him.
Hopefully nothing goes wrong and that I won't regret this, I can't deny myself happiness because of what my mom might say or do.
Am not sure about the outcome of this but I can't just think of negativity am going for it now....
