After graduation, Jamie had three months to await his results that would take him to the next level which was Senior High School. Jamie was much of an indoor person and didn't really like outings. His normal routine everyday was to wake up, bath, eat and sleep again. There was nothing to learn so he stayed away from all learning activities to relax and have some quality time for himself and thinking of the next opportunity he would get to meet Linda again. He had never experienced how it was to hold a pad to play video games due to his family's situation of being poor and even though there were a lot of gaming centers around, not once did he go there. He said to himself,"Man, home is boring,and the days are not moving any faster and there's nothing to do." He then remembered that one of his friends who lived about 20 miles away from his house Kobby Walker popular known as "Bykez"talked about having an XBOX 360, while they were still in school. He quickly contacted him to ask if he was at home and that he wanted to pay him a visit.
He then dressed up and informed his mom that he wanted to visit Bykez. She agreed and in no time he was at the doorstep of Bykez residence and asked him ,"Bro, do you still have your game console you used to talk about?" "Oh yeah I do. Would like to play?" Bykez replied as Jamie nodded his head saying yes as he was given a warm welcome into the Walkers Residence and they began to play. It was the first time Jamie had held a pad which made it quite difficult for him to play but he managed as Bykez took his time to show him.
While he was playing,he had a call from his mother telling him to rush home immediately because Linda's family had relocated to their area and they needed help moving into their new house.
Linda's father had died a week after the examinations which caused them to relocate.
Hearing this made him consider that day,the best day of his life because he had the opportunity to see Linda again. He quickly stopped playing and quickly left as he wanted to see the girl of his dreams. In no time he was at home and his mom directed him to their new house and he went there, he got there on time as they were still offloading their stuff from the moving car. When Linda's mother, Mrs.Lawrencia was so happy to see Jamie.
"Heey Jamie,look at you all grown up. How are you doing?"she asks him upon being suprised seeing how big he's grown. In response he says"I'm fine auntie,thanks for asking. My mum say I should come and help you out with offload your stuff." "Well okay,we can use all the help we can get." She said to him as he joined them to offload. Linda came out and saw him and waved at him as usual but Jamie noticed she was moody and decided to talk to her after the work was done. Eventually, they completed the work and it was time for Jamie to head home."Jamie,why don't you stay and have dinner with us?" Mrs.Lawrencia asked Jamie."Thanks a lot Mrs.Lawrencia but it's late and I have to get home"Jamie replied." Oh okay if you say then. Tanx a lot for your help,I really appreciate it. Say hi to your mother for mom. Linda,why don't you go escort him home?"she said. Jamie was so happy within him that he started smiling. Linda escorted him and as they were going, they had a conversation. Jamie said"I heard about your father's death,my sincere apologies.""Don't worry it's okay" she said. "So how's life been after school?" He asked. "It's not been bad,a bit of outing here and there so that I don't get bored. Maybe we should go out sometime"she said which made Jamie very happy and he agreed as they parted ways.
Weeks passed by as they got closer to each other and became good friends. Jamie now had to think of how to tell her how he felt about her. He tried on many occasions but he didn't have the confidence to do it forgetting that time was passing by and if he didn't tell her, someone else was going to. He went to his friend, Bykez to ask him for guidelines on how to do that since Bykez had been in a relationship before. "Bykez,how do I tell a girl that I love her?,I really like her but don't know how to do that please help me out man before she's taken."he told him as Bykez gave him guidelines and made sure that he was ready. He picked up the phone and was ready to confess his feelings to her.
