Some weeks later, I was starting to get the feeling that the whole scholarship of a thing was all a prank, is been two weeks now, and no news yet for the people that participate in the exam, if they pass or not. Sonia could tell what I was thinking by my sad and pale looks, both of us were busy bringing out the washed clothes from the washing machine.
"you don't have to look like that though, I am sure the result will be out soon". she said calmly trying to make me relax, I smiled at her forcedly and continue with what I was doing, suddenly my phone beeped of incoming messages, I reluctantly bring out the phone from my bag and started scrolling through the message, suddenly I gasped in surprise to see the message was coming from Valley College, it stated on congratulating me for passing their exam and that I was given the admission.
" Ahhhhhh!" I screamed out excitedly and it got some of the workers' attention including Sonia
"What?" she asked seeing how surprised and happy I am at the same time, I turn to her and show her the message on my phone, she glance through it quickly and gasped."oh my gosh, you passed!"
"yes!" I muttered excitedly and she gave me a tight hug
"Congratulations! I knew you could do it" we pulled away from each other." I am so happy for you, finally your dreams are coming through, I am going to miss you once you leave for Los Angeles".
"me too". we hug again and everyone in the room was smiling at us...later in the day I and my mom made a little celebration over my admission to my dream school, it was an amazing day for us, and she told me not to worry about where to stay, she has a friend who stays over there and she will be so happy to see me and to stay with her. I could see the sadness on her face because she will be alone once I am gone.
" don't worry Mom, I will make sure I call and text you every chance I get" I reassured her and she smile even though I know it was a fake one.
"I will miss you so much, now I will be all alone in this house " she sobs and I pat her shoulders tenderly.
A month later, my mom drove me to the airport with my best friend beside me, we talk and chatted on her way and we finally arrived, I couldn't help to see their sad faces, we hug and cried before I pulled away from them and bide each other goodbye immediately I enter the plane, a tip of tear crawl out from my eyes seeing the people I love the most will be far away from me .... a few hours later the plane landed in Los Angeles, CA, USA airport, it was an amazing view to behold, I took my bag and left to wait at the lobby for my mom's friend to come to pick me up, I brought out my phone make a phone call across my mom and Sonia and I informed them about my arriver, we talk for almost thirty minutes before I hung up and started taking pictures with my phone, uploading them to my social media.
"you still haven't changed for a bit, why still have this scaring look on you?" I heard a lady's voice from my front talking seriously to a guy on a face cap who was sitting beside her with his face bent to the ground, and I guess he was operating his phone ignoring the young lady, I took a proper look at both of them. the young lady was whitish with her gold hair with a tip of a brown color, slim in shape, I pull a little closer to see she has a silver eye color that looks very beautiful, and her skin glowed .with the way she was dressed and the way she looks no doubt she is from a wealthy family. I couldn't get a proper view of the guy, only the color of his brown hair was what I could get. I focus on my phone but still paying a little attention to their talk." are you even listening to me, you better put on a charming face, and stopped chasing the pretty ladies away with this ugly look. "the lady said and I giggle, I could notice her gaze on me.
" um, am sorry, I didn't mean to laugh, is just that you sounded funny when you said the 'ugly' part".I said with a smile the lady turn her gaze away back to the guy not minding my words.
"do you understand what I am saying?" she kept bugging the guy and suddenly the guy rudely interrupt her, his voice sounded lovely and angelic
"Will you stop bugging me, your annoying words are irritating me, I don't even know why you are here with me in the first place, if you can not stand my sight, why not get your pathetic body out of my sight!" he yelled at her rudely, I could see the embarrassment on the lady's face as she titles her face to the ground avoiding the gaze from other people.
"That was rude! I blurted out angrily and stood up from my seat in front of the guy, I was caught off guard by his cute, smooth, and handsome face, he has this amazing dark-blue eyes like that of a cat, I could feel the blushes on my face, this guy is damn cute, but I manage to control myself not to fall under his spell and I could see the dark stare on his face." you have no right to talk rudely to your girlfriend in public like that!"I said with my hands folded across my breast and the lady interrupted me.
"um, sorry, am not his girlfriend, we are cousins". she corrected
"Thanks for the correction, like I was saying you have no right to speak rudely to your cousin like that, she is human, not your maid you order around, she was only giving you a tip of advice which I didn't doubt, you are the ugliest person on earth!" I said rudely back to him, I could see his piercing gaze on me and the surprising look from his cousin, but I didn't mind.." now apologize to her"I voice out, I could see his face getting darker from rage." didn't you hear what I said, I said to apologize to her, don't make me use force on you".I was losing patience to see he is not making any move, suddenly I grab unto him and gave him a hard kick on his leg and he fell to his knees in front of his cousin, I bend his hand hard to the back and he groaned in pain, his cousin was in shock to see the move I made on him and the people around was staring surprisingly as some brought out their phone making a video of the scene." now apologize!"I squeeze his hand hard and he grunts in pain, trying to be stubborn not to apologize, then suddenly I heard his voice out in pain.
"am sorry"! he said in pain and I let go of his hand, he was still on the floor groaning in pain and refusing to stand up due to the embarrassment.
"Good, next time, you will learn to address a lady well in public, "I was satisfied with what I have done and started hearing cheers and applause from everyone, I smile showing them my kind gesture, suddenly I heard my name from behind, and I turn I saw an elegant Lady of late thirty with fair-skinned, dark hair that matches her eye, due to her age she was still looking hot and sexy, she moves closer to me and gave me a warm hug.
"I am so sorry I kept you waiting". she pulls me away from her hug and smiles lovely at me.' you look so beautiful and charming"
"you must be my mother's friend".
" yes, but just call me Alice ".
" Okay, Alice "
"Well let's go," she helps me with my luggage.
"bye angry bird, bye everyone " I wave at them and stare back at the guy who was already seated with his face bowed to the ground and his cousin was trying to console him...
