Shopping can be soul draining for real, particularly grocery shopping for me.
I discovered Micah and his friends are the only ones who stay on the last floor of this huge skyscraper, it's not a business building but the boys hostel....
Sheesh! Who the hell are these people to own the most important and biggest part of this building.
Do I want to find out?... No. Hell no!
It's not my business. I came here to study and that's what I'll do but why do I get this feeling that I'll be doing more than that here.
"She's hot for real. You gotta see the way her pink lips looked kissable, her hair was braided beautifully, her dark skin glowed" someone was describing me to someone I don't even know.
Isn't that Dom?, Whose the other dude...
"Woah... What else" the other guy asked..
"She has doe eyes, and puffy cheek, and she's rather short, with curves, you can literally see her big boo-".
"That's enough, shut up" Adonis spoke up now, I moved to the kitchen or what looked like it, too embarrassed to go into the living room. That dude... I'll teach him a lesson.
I tried to listen in on what they said, but it was just muffled sounds.
"Uhm Mickey where do I put these stuffs, I am worn out and hungry, thank goodness tomorrow is a Saturday" I said, while rubbing my forehead. It's a die hard habit for me.
"Don't worry let me handle it, while you start your cooking. I'm sorry you had to hear that, you must be mortified." He said, while stacking some stuffs into the cabinet.
I shrugged a bit, "well what can I say boys will be boys."
Oh Dominic my boy, you have no idea what's about to hit you....
"Uhm, can you ask everyone to gather in the living room, I have an important announcement to make."
"Sure" Micah said, already heading out to the living room.
Here goes nothing....
I walked into the living room and they're all there, but doing other things, the other guy and Jake are playing a video game, Dom is checking himself out with a mirror, Micah is going through his phone, Adonis is lying on the couch his eyes closed. I'm surprised he even came and Ezekiel is just reading a book.
I cleared my throat to gain their attention which seemed to work except Adonis eyes is still shut.
"You aren't deaf right?, You must've heard me cough, so open your eyes" i crossed my arm, while coming to stand in front of him.
"And who are you to tell me what to do?" He said with a smug smile..
Oh my boy, mama doesn't like disrespectful creatures.
I saw a cup with water on the table while I was coming in, the rest seemed scared as they figured out what I was about to do, but Micah had an amused look on his face.
Splash!!!!
I downed the whole cup of water on his face, and returned to sit on a stool facing the whole lot, a smug smile of my own coming into play as I enjoyed the surprise look on his face.
Beauty with arrogance is no beauty at all my darling Adonis.
I heard him grumble curse words as he tried to make his way out the living room.
"You're not going anywhere till I have made my announcement Adonis. Sit. Your. Ass. Down." I said, shooting him a glare.
"I thought you said she's like an angel" the other guy whispered into Dom's ears. He's really bad at whispering because I heard Micah scoff at that.
"I thought so too" Dom whispered back.
Well that was mean, I can be sweet when I want to, I'll show them.
"Uhm Adonis please have a seat, I apologize for my rude behaviour a while ago but please listen to what I have to say" I said smiling sweetly at him.
And looking towards the guys I apologised for any inconvenience I put them through.
I also found out the name of the other guy, it's Hudson....
......
"What! She has to stay here?" Adonis growled.
"Temporarily" I added, gosh what's up with this dude.
Since there was silence, I decided to hit the nail on the head as to why I had them all gather here.
"Well guys... I'm sorry for the inconvenience but I'll be here only temporary till there is enough space for one person in the girls hostel"
"You can stay here for as long as you want" Dom added, giving me a wink with his legs crossed but immediately kept shut when Adonis threw him a menacing glare.
"Uhmm as I was saying, while I am here, things will be done in a coordinated manner, work will be shared amongst you all no matter who they are." I said throwing a look to Micah and Adonis mostly as I noted the look of displeasure on both their faces.
"I will be in charge of the cooking, but rounds will be made by each person to clean the kitchen, same goes for the living room, toilet, everywhere asides your bedroom, it's up to you to do whatever you like with your bedroom."
"And who are you to order us around in our turf." Hudson all but growled.
"Do you know who we are?" he carried on.
What's with this damn question every single time.
"Look listen here, holly or whatever you call yourself, I don't care who you are, you can be the devil for all I care, but you will do as told." I said getting upset.
"May I?" Zeke said smiling.
"Sure"
"Listen here, before you came into this place we have patterns for doing things, we have maids, and it's our dorm isn't it, we can do whatever we like with it... But I guess there's room for change, so I'm in." He said looking at the others.
"So am I" it was Dom who spoke next and the rest joined in, including Hudson and Micah after much persuasion but Adonis got up and left.
That night we all got to know eachother, well all of us except Micah who was busy with business deals and Adonis who still hadn't returned from God knows where....
I told Dom I heard what he said to Hudson about me and he didn't even care to deny it... I'll have my revenge soon enough but for now I just need to rest.
After eating dinner, we all said our goodnights.. and Micah showed me to my room, it was nice, I'd have to decorate it soon...
I took my phone as my fingers hovered over Kai's number... He hasn't cared to call since I arrived, does he really not care at all? I didn't even notice the stray tear that left my eyes until it dropped onto the screen of my phone.
That night I cried myself to sleep, promising myself to let go and move on. I'll surely try my best to forget him.
