"Why are you looking at me like that?" Diaz asked, distracting her. Afika's reverie was instantly broken. She soon realised. She was currently trapped in one place with Diaz.
Reflexively, Afika covered Diaz's mouth with her hand. "Don't make noise! I think someone is coming here," she informed him.
Diaz locked his mouth tightly. Afika's hand was still on his lips. The girl also looked outside, was it safe out there? Eh, who is that? Isn't that Carla, her classmate?
"Eh, what is she doing?" Afika became curious herself.
Oh my! Afika immediately widened her eyes in shock. She witnessed her classmate kissing a boy behind the arts building. She couldn't stop thinking. This was a school, why would they dare to do such a disgusting thing here?
"What are you looking at?" It was Diaz's turn to be curious. He turned his head briefly and took it for granted. It’s like he doesn’t care and doesn’t want anymore else’s business.
"Are they allowed to do that here? Is this a school?" Afika wanted to protest but instead she asked the wrong person.
Diaz was indifferent to what his friend was doing. Why make a fuss about it? He thought simply.
"No need to be jealous. They do that because they like each other. They are free to express their feelings anywhere," Diaz whispered to Afika.
"But, does it have to be at school? It's like there's no other place," Afika grumbled. She disagreed with Diaz's opinion.
"I think it's very challenging. It's an adrenaline rush for both of them. Do you want to try it? Let me feel the sensation myself," Diaz teased.
Afika immediately made an ugly face at Diaz. She also showed her fists if Diaz tried to mess with her.
"Besides, why do you bother with other people's lives? It's like living your own life is already right," Diaz quipped.
"Already, don't make any more noise! You'll get caught," Afika warned Diaz. The bloke immediately shut up in front of Afika.
After the situation was deemed safe, Afika and Diaz were about to leave their hiding place. "You go first! I'll follow," Diaz said.
"Yes, but my foot is stuck on something. I can't move," Afika struggled to break free. It looked like her foot was stuck between the roots of the trees.
"If you don't come out first, I won't be able to come out later. What do you think?" Diaz fumed. "Hurry up and get out first!" he urged.
"How can I? I told you my leg is stuck, you don't believe me," Afika insisted. She insisted and said she couldn't get out.
Afika tried to get her stuck foot out. At the same time as Diaz was trying to get away from that place, suddenly both of them fell to the ground. It happened so fast and somehow now Afika's body was on top of Diaz.
'Eh! Why is it in this position?' Afika pressed down on Diaz.
Deg!
It happened so fast. All of a sudden, Afika's body was on top of Diaz and pressing down on him. Not only that, Afika's position was arguably a very awkward position. Because in addition to sitting on Diaz's chest, the position of her lips was also pressed against the lips of her senior.
How awkward!
'How can he be this close to me?' Afika blinked her eyes. Diaz did the same.
'Her lips taste sweet,' Diaz said to himself.
Both of them stood still for a few seconds. It took a while for them to realise something had happened between them. Eventually, both of them realised and kept their distance from each other. Although Afika had not moved from Diaz's body.
"Heh! Get out of my body!" Diaz said, breaking Afika's reverie.
"What?" Afika's hands and feet were shaking. What had she just done? She was so embarrassed now.
"You're crushing me and your body is really heavy. Please move away!" Diaz emphasised again. This time, the expelled Afika felt the strength to get away from Diaz immediately. She immediately left without saying goodbye. She ran away.
Oh my! What was that? Why is that? There were so many questions in a row that occupied all the space in her brain. Afika turned her body round. She couldn't hide her face that was flushed red with embarrassment for Diaz.
Ah, damn! The situation and conditions were so awkward like this. Where was Afika's face in front of Diaz. If one day they met or crossed paths in the school corridor. Even though she tried to deny it a thousand times, she still felt guilty. How could he have kissed her first? It was just an accident.
Yes, Afika thought so. Let's just say that she didn't do it on purpose. Diaz would know that the kiss was completely unconscious. You can be sure that it was just a coincidence. Something she hadn't planned.
"AFIKA!" Gina half shouted at her. Gina and Febby saw Afika in the school corridor who was staggering.
Afika was still imagining the unexpected events she had just experienced. In fact, she was still groping her own lips.
"Fik! You didn't change your clothes? Hurry up! Break time is almost over. Let's wait in the canteen!" Febby tapped her shoulder. And Afika immediately woke up from her long daydream.
"Ah, yes. You guys go ahead! I want to change my clothes first. It's hot," Afika said reasonably. She waved her hand towards her face. It was a sign that she was getting hot.
She had just kissed a guy behind the arts building. Oops! Afika had to cover her mouth tightly. Don't let anyone know about the incident. Especially her classmates. The whole school would be in an uproar if the rumour got out.
"Alright, hurry up! We're waiting in the canteen," Gina reminded her again. Worried if Afika forgot because she had an appointment with them.
Afika nodded slowly. She looked like an idiot for gawping incoherently when her two friends promised to meet at the canteen. She was still in shock. So, she hurried to her classroom. Get some clothes and head to the canteen! If you have time, go to the canteen too.
Diaz returned to her classroom. He would prepare the books for the next lesson. After break time, he had a lesson in the biology lab.
Unlike Afika, Diaz looked calm and 'so cool' when he arrived at his classroom. Although that afternoon, many people cheered him on because Afika was caught cheering him on.
"Ciye ... how does it feel to have a fan?" asked Helmi, his already curious seatmate. The annoying bloke was suddenly curious and asked questions beyond Diaz's comprehension.
