Love is not a crime

Were you able to complete yours?"

Tucking a strand of hair behind her ear, Stacey hesitated, "Not really. I'll do all of it when I get home."

Her course-mate nodded her head with a smile and hugged her 'goodbye' before leaving.

Stacey glance at her watch and took a deep breath before turning around to take a move only to bump into someone. "Ouch..." She rubbed her nose and inched backward.

"I'm so sorry, are you alright?" He asked while trying to tilt her chin for attention.

Already knowing who it was, Stacey vigorously nodded her head and quickly excused herself from his sight.

Winston awkwardly scratched his head and foolishly followed her behind.

.....

Stacey sense some footsteps approaching behind her, she stopped and turned around asap.

He stopped too and pretended to be busy with his phone.

Stacey frowned and intently stare at him for quite some time before continuing her journey.

At the time Winston realized that she has walked few distance away from him, he shoved his phone into his pocket and head-on.

.....

Outside the school gate

Stacey stopped and annoyingly spill around. "Why are you following me?" She snapped at him.

Winston got startled instantly by her sudden fierceness. She was seriously mad.

When he hesitated, she gave him a quizzical look, "Is there something you want or you just wanna keep following me?"

Winston scratched his neck and nervously chuckled, "Well umm...I-"

"Please get lost. And stop following me because I won't fall for a womanizer like you. Sex yourself in hell and stop bugging me." Stacey snapped and left without waiting for him to say anything.

Winston took a deep breath and patted his chest to calm down. She is furious. Why is she? And who gave her such right to call him a 'womanizer'?

The few students who were still wandering around and stopped when Stacey snapped at him, codedly chuckled and walked away.

Winston felt embarrassed of himself, but not that much at least she could say to herself that someone is pestering her and she is knocking him down.

He chuckled foolishly at himself and quietly walked back into the school premises. Whether she likes it or not, he is going to be her boyfriend and nothing or anyone can say anything to defile his words. It's a promise within his spirit, body and soul.

Fine, he knows very well that he has never played a boyfriend in anyone's life before but he believes practice makes perfect.

Every expert was once a beginner, right? So for him to practice a perfect relationship and play a portrait boyfriend in someone's life, it has to start now.

He likes her and it's unexplainable. He won't stop lingering and loitering around her not until she gives in.

As for his little stubborn sister, he knows how to handle her part very well. He'll do everything he can to express his true feelings and intentions towards her.

He doesn't care how this is gonna work or how it'll look or sound but all he wants is for her to see the true side of him and believe. Love is not a crime, right?
