9 Chapter 9

Kyomi's POV:

I was going insane, ever since Dante had approached me yesterday ... ever since he'd told me that he wanted me and touched my shoulder with his hand, not to mention kiss my finger with his lips.

I couldn't get him out of my God damn mind!

I kept looking over my shoulder expecting to see him. I wasn't sure whether I kept looking because I was afraid that he'd try to come talk to me again or whether I was actually waiting for him!

I had to be going insane for everyone knew Dante didn't attend classes during the day, he'd set all his classes for the evening ... That's if he actually went to any of them, I didn't pay that much attention to him but I did hear rumors that he barely attended any classes whatsoever, just took the notes from whoever he'd wanted to.

"Kyomi?"Mandy called, her voice breaking into my thoughts.

"You've been zoning out on us since this morning." Bridgette pointed out. "Is everything okay?"

I finally looked at my friends and realized that they were all staring at me with concerned looks on their faces.

"Now she's staying quiet and not even responding to our questions." Alisha added while studying me.

I shook my head at them as I forced a smile onto my face. "I'm absolutely fine, I've just been really stressed out lately with all the work being thrown at us and then having to deal with strict parents isn't the easiest thing in the world."

Mandy twisted her mouth into a frown. "We always knew your strict parents would eventually start to affect you."

"Yeah." Bridgette agreed. "I could never understand how you always did every single thing they asked of you, like not having any friends of the opposite gender ... That's insane, I can't imagine not talking to a single guy other than my brother my entire life."

"Not to mention she'll have to marry the man her father chose for her, so basically whoever she marries would be the only man she'd have any sort of communication with other than family." Alisha said shaking her head.

Hearing my friends talk about how pathetic my life was only made me feel worst, who would my father even choose for me to marry?

What kind of man would he be?

And would I ever love him?

Would he be as handsome as Dante? That thought completely surprised me, why was I thinking about him yet again?

"Good morning ladies."

I froze, surely that wasn't who I thought it was?

I slowly turned on my sneakers to come face to face with the man who'd been on my mind since yesterday.

Dante.

What was wrong with him ?

Why was he here?

"Hi sweetness." He whispered.

My eyes widened and totally embarrassing myself, dropped the books from my hand in shock.
