GIGI
I had taken dinner in my room because I wasn't in the mood to talk to anyone, not to think about those lectures my parents would give me. I wanted to rest early before mom would come up to check on me.
I brushed my teeth and slipped into my pajamas and retired to bed. Not long had I slipped into the quilt when I heard Livia's voice.
"I'm asleep." I cautioned her but she kept on knocking. I got up and opened the door for her. I don't know why a two-month old pregnant woman was stressing herself with a teenager. If I were her, I'd be probably asleep or being cuddled by my husband, but no, she wasn't that kind of woman. She could hustle and bustle around the house like mother hen making sure that her chicks were all together.
"I know you haven't yet slept." She invited herself in and I had no option but to let her in. She was such a darling but even so, we were not that close.
"It has been a rough day and I have tried my level best to get sleep."
"So, what is this all about?" She asked.
"Nothing much, the need to work harder and improve my grades, that's all."
"Really?"
"What else could it be?"
"A guy perhaps.... you're at that age and I wouldn't be surprised if you have found a guy for yourself." She smiled fondly as if she was my mother, too irrational.
"I'm not into guys." I muttered.
"What? Gay?" She covered her mouth in shock.
"No, I meant that I love studies for now..."
"Oops! Sorry, I thought you were into girls or something." She apologized for her mistaken thought though I had to ask her what it meant when a guy looked into your eyes so deep that you'd want to look down or blush or get carried away.
"But...I have meant to ask what it means when a guy looks at you intently, like so much staring until you feel something...I don't know."
"Hey, I do understand what you mean, you don't have to get yourself worked up. When a guy stares at you intently can only mean one thing, he's into you. There's something he can feel about you, when the two of you make an eye contact without looking away, it simply means the beginning of something maybe incredible."
"No way!" I blurted out.
"Is some guy wooing you?"
"Nope, I've never cared to know. There's this guy, he helped me out this morning and then he went extra."
"Did he kiss you?"
"He put his hands around my waist. Is there something wrong with that?" I asked her, with the way she was smiling sheepishly, it clearly had some meaning to it.
"The first time your brother put his hands around my waist, was when he was kissing me, pulling me closer to his broad chest."
"So to mean that he could have kissed me?" I shrilled.
"Maybe yes, maybe no. It depends Gigi. He could have put his hands around your waist to satisfy his curiosity about your curves or hips. He might be interested in you as well, it's pretty simple."
"He has girlfriend though." I pursed my lips.
"Having a girlfriend doesn't prove anything, he might be into her but at the same time eyeing someone else. Guys are like that, polygamous."
"That's why I'm not ready to date, my studies come first." I concluded.
"But don't play too hard to get, sometimes let yourself loose, you'll need a guy to give you your first orgasm. It'd be great, trust me." She put her hand over mine and assured me of the same.
I shrugged while irking my brows not knowing how to respond to such.
"Well, it's time I get going, my baby and I need a lot of rest. Goodnight Gigi."
"Goodnight." I muttered as she walked out.
After that, I turned and tossed in bed replaying the part where Chevy put his hands around my waist. I don't know why my heart throbs whenever his image, pops up on my mind.
