On
their way to town Nohata screamed with a sharp voice "NO"! What's wrong
Nohata? He asked. "I forgot my phone on the bed, please we have to go back
in case my grandparents call, I need to get my phone"! She panicked. Don't
worry please don't ruin your makeup with those tears am seeing in your eyes, what
time are they coming back? He asked. They are coming at 5pm that's why I want to
be home before them so that I can cook supper, she said. He pulled over and said
"See in no time we will be back home, if we start driving back home it will
take time, besides we are half way there please calm down I don't think they will
call you for anything am sure they are busy with the meeting" he said
assuring. Are you sure?
But
my grandma likes to give a lot of instructions I feel she is going to call, she
argued. You are a smart girl, you look and act more mature than your age that's
why I like you and I know we will make good friends cause we both think outside
the box, but listen dear I assure you I don't think they'll call please relax we
will be back home. She was quiet for a while then she said okay fine let's get going
already then. He got back on the road and he drove on.
They
got to "Uncle Ben's Pizza" he is known to make the best pizza in town
and usually has a lot of customers and that was Ernest's favourite place to eat.
He ordered two medium pizza's, drinks and salads. As they were waiting for their
order "Do you have a boyfriend"? Ernest asked, Yes I do, he is our bishop's
son, his name is Manish, she answered. Oh really! So for how long have you been
together? He added "We have been together for two years now, we were best friends
and we ended up getting more attached to each other". "Two years? How
old are you then? You've been together for a long time are you sure he is the one
for you! I hear pastors sons are the worst players on the planet" he said mockingly.
"I am 16 years old, I was supposed to be in my eleventh grade but due to my
family's business we stayed in different countries which disturbed my education
because sometimes we would move to between a term and I'd have to start all over.
Manish
is a good boy, am actually his first girlfriend and he is my first too and I believe
he is my last. We have known each other for a long time now am sure if he was a
character I would have noticed cause I believe you can't hide your behavior and
habits for a long time, he is loyal I am certain. Wow I admire how you speak so
highly of him, he said.
The
food was served and they were ready to eat, but Ernest was looking sad. "Yummy....this
pizza is the best I've had, it's so delicious" she said with her eyes closed
as she chewed softly. Yeah it is, he said "Are you okay? You suddenly sound
low and grumpy why? Tell me about yourself do you have a girlfriend? No! I am
actually super single I broke up with my ex because she cheated on me and said I
was too busy with work and that I nearly gave her attention. Awwwwww sorry Ernest
you're a good guy I believe a good girl will come your way, let's eat up I don't
want to be late remember. It was 2pm and they were ready to hit the road, he was
just quiet while he was driving back home. Thanks for lunch I really enjoyed it
I think I will ask my grandparents to bring me to town for lunch again. I enjoyed
it too, he said with a serious look on his face. They got home by 2:40pm and Nohata
hugged him and said thanks once again as she rushed to open the door so that she'd
check if she missed any calls
Ernest
went to change in to something more casual and he got out of the house angrily,
he was disappointed he wanted Nohata for himself but he couldn't have her because
she has someone.
He
started the engine and Nohata rush to meet him "are you going out already,
anyway I just wanted to say you were right nobody called. Why do you look so upset
is everything okay?" "You are welcome please excuse me we will talk later"
he drove off.
