Recho

"Guys..." Jaffery Lutta wanted to tell the youths something but when he glanced in front of him, his eyes lit up.

In front of Jaffery Lutta, there, she was. Jaffery Lutta's crush.

"I now know why I am still in this school even though I believe I am wasting my time here." Jaffery Lutta murmured to himself when he saw his crush.

"Oooh no, she is coming this way." Jaffery Lutta quickly patted himself to get the dirt off himself and then fixed himself properly.

In this college, Recho Wairimu was the only girl who could give Jaffery Lutta some face, this was because Recho Wairimu and Jaffery Lutta came from the same highschool and coincidentally, they found themselves joining the same college.

Unlike Jaffery Lutta, Recho Wairimu came from a well-off family though her grades in school were a little bit bad and that might be the reason why she was forced to join this college. Recho Wairimu was not like Jaffery Lutta who was clever as Jaffery Lutta was to join a top university because he got a high grade but because of Jaffery Lutta's foolishness that made him join the hawkers association at that time instead of joining this university, made Jaffery Lutta to miss this opportunity.

But who could blame Jaffery Lutta? Just hawking some few stuffs in the market made Jaffery Lutta to hold so much money than that of what his parents were getting, this made him to be rude and proud, forgetting about school, so, when Jaffery Lutta now wanted to join this university after getting 'enough' money, the opportunity was no longer there, forcing him to join this college of boredom and hopelessness.

Even if Jaffery Lutta was a pauper, Recho Wairimu never treated him badly like other of his fellow students out there and this was what made Jaffery Lutta to want her more. Yes, Jaffery Lutta wanted to make Recho Wairimu his, he didn't just want to make Recho Wairimu his part time girlfriend, no, he wanted to marry Recho Wairimu, that's what was in Jaffery Lutta's heart.

Everywhere, every time, Jaffery Lutta would simply be thinking about Recho Wairimu. Jaffery Lutta had not even made the first step by kissing or wooing this lass but in his mind, he had already married her and he could see himself and Recho Wairimu cradling with each other, sometimes Recho Wairimu would be on top of him and vice versa.

Yes, in Jaffery Lutta's mind, he was already having sex with this girl of his life. He could feel her scent, her feminine side and everything about her because her body was now his, he could play with her the way he wanted. Furthermore, Jaffery Lutta could even see that they already have kids who called them dad and mom and Jaffery Lutta could not help but smile, his smile turning into a grin.

Pa!

"I have to wake up." Jaffery Lutta slapped his cheek to wake himself up.

All that was in his thinking, it had not happened.

"Recho Wairimu's parents are rich and she is also assured of getting a job after she finished studying in this college. Moreover, Recho Wairimu also has a chance to continue with her studies because her parents have money to further her studies but me on the other hand, let's even not talk about my parents, I don't have anything, how will I marry Recho Wairimu? I must have Recho Wairimu for myself but how? I wish I was a wealthy dude, Recho Wairimu would have simply fell on my laps, whether she liked it or not, this poverty has taken many of my chances. FUCK YOU POVERTY! Why did you take a liking on me?" Without even knowing, Jaffery Lutta found himself hollering gibberish. His fellow students were staring at him weirdly before they just shook their heads and turned to leave, there was nothing that they could add.

Recho Wairimu had also stopped and she was talking to her friends when she heard what Jaffery Lutta was hollering, she could not help but glance at him with a look of pity before she left the group and walk towards Jaffery Lutta.

"I still have a chance. Yes. Even if you come from a well off family, so what! I must woo you to make you mine." Jaffery Lutta's eyes sparkled with resolve. After all, Jaffery Lutta had read several novels of poor dudes who managed to catch the heart of well-off girls and they would then marry them later. Who knew that maybe, this could happen to Jaffery Lutta? He would even chance to gain in this relationship, right? Jaffery Lutta knew too well that Recho Wairimu was the only child of her parents so, all the wealth of her parents was her's to inherit, if he managed to marry Recho Wairimu, he would have gotten the woman of his life on his side and also removed his poverty status.

"There she comes." Jaffery Lutta pacified his throat and stood in the middle of the pavement gentlemanly.

"Did you just call my name?" Recho Wairimu asked when she came closer to Jaffery Lutta. Recho Wairimu might not have heard most of the words hollered by Jaffery Lutta but she clearly heard him calling her name, this was why she came.

"Uum! Cough! Cough!" Jaffery Lutta coughed for a moment before he took an unfathomable stance and said,

"Recho... Recho... Recho. I have wanted to tell you something for a long time but I just didn't find the chance to tell you but now that you are here, I think I have a chance, right?"
