Beautiful Things

Episode 25

It took me a while to find my room, ooooh i thank goodness i found you i said to myself before going in. Then i saw a guy about my size, dark complexioned and was on low cut.

Boy: hey man whatsup

Me: am good and u?

Boy: Am fine, and am harry

Me: Am desire, nice to meet you.

Harry: so whats gym??

Me: Uhmmmm i dont really do sports

Harry: then i guess your a singer then??

Me: nope

Harry: come on man then what do you do?

Me; nothing i just go to school learn and head back home.

Harry: really?? Dude your amazing you mean all your days in high school you werent on any team?

Me: yup, and what about you man

harry: Am a full time rockstar he said grabbing his guitar and i play soccer.

Well naturally i am an introvert, i like listening to music in a cool and calm places, i never liked parties or clubs because of it rowdiness. Harry seemed to be an outgoing and fun loving person and i kinda liked that.

Me: so can i see you play that alittle bit, he played and sang, while i just listened and he was really good at it. Harry lemme see that, i said pointing at the guitar. Then he tossed it to me. I was really a fan of music, sometimes i wonder if theres a song i havent heard.

I caught the guitar and smiled at him, am not as good as you though but i’ll try my best. I sang and play “tears drop on my guitar” by tailor swift. Finally i was done and his eyes were wide open in amazement.

Harry: woooow why aint you on the school band?.

Me: cos i dont want to and by the way am still a rookie, just then he moved to my bed and showed me some stuffs. Which i practiced and kept failing though, i tried and tried and finally i got it and i played it for a while with my eyes closed felling great, then checked my time and it was 2.am. I was not suprised, cos this wasnt the first time i forgot to sleep while trying to learn something, i dropped the guitar and slept.

The next day i walked round the school and everyone was busy either @ the band, hand ball, soccer, dance crew or the movie club. I havent seen my princess today i thought, so i headed towards the football peach and sat alone in the large audience seat that was well arranged in descending order, it was really cool up here, and i really felt great. The players were all lined up for trainings, the cheerleaders too in there usual uniform and while the training commenced they danced, jumped, and jamed there cotton balls together like they were clapping and did some stunts, i could see dera smiling beautifully and i kept my eyes fixed on her. Just then the speaker anounced that all staged practice is scheduled @ noon. Then i saw dera fall while they were trying to some complicated stunt, before i got on my feet, i saw them laughing, i breathed down heavily relief and sat down, ooooh i havent completed my speech about greenville high school i remembered. I wasnt holding any writing material, so i just making a mental note of what i was gonna say. Then i saw harry on the field in his training outfit, i decided to watch him for a while, and he wasnt that bad afterall. But i think his musical skills was better than his football skills.

Joe

Have exhausted my 3 launch dates with millicent, i tried my best to make her fall for me too, and now its time to check if she did, so i decided to wait if she’d call, and i’ve been expecting her calls for days now, when suddenly my phone ranged and it was millicent.

Millicent: hello joe, can you lend me yourself this evening

Me: haahaha whats the problem girl
Millicent: i’ve been invited for a cocktail party organised by my friend, and you would be denied access without a spouse. Strictly on invitation

Joe: lemme guess, you want me to be your spouse, i said smiling

millicent: kinda

Joe: alright then luckily am not gonna be busy tonight, i will be there.

Millicent: thanks dear, i’ll text you the address byeeee.
