A glimpse...

Chapter 36

“ so your only pretending to be busy?” she says walking towards me her hair pushed back

“ just came over to hand you your mission.”

“do you love her?” she asks

“What…” I reply confused at her question.

“do you love her or not? Answer me?”

“define love since you seem to know what it is…”

“love…is like tending to a flower. If you like it you pluk it, but if you love it…you care for it so you can watch it bloom occasionally….”

“then I guess I must not like or love anyone.”

“let us keep it that way,” she replies grabbing her folder walking towards her motorcycle

“Wait!” I yell running towards her, “ we need to talk…”

“about what, me being a substitute again or about you breaking my heart?”

“we spoke about this Aaminah. I tried, I just could not love you.”

“and her, you only met her yesterday….but you seem very cosy around her and what does she have that I don't, I'm 10 times more prettier than she is...im way younger than she is!”
