NATASHA

NATHANIEL

NATASHA

But Nathaniel didn’t reply, he sits on the bed facing the door while the banging on the door continues but this didn’t move him, he feels like opening the door but he was avoiding her by all means, the banging later stop which means Natasha has gone, he swoosh out air from his nostrils and lay on the bed lost in thought.

Natasha angrily shut the door of her room, she was fury now, how can Nathaniel refuse to see her, she toss round her room, she was in shock, and this got her to wonder what was really happening, where has she gone wrong that Nathaniel is avoiding her this way, she didn’t know when she broke down in tear, sitting on the floor she couldn’t hold back her tear as it flow freely on her cheek.

Nathaniel wake up with a slided headache, he looks at the time it was 9:34pm, he might has doze off while thinking about Natasha, he gets up and head to the kitchen because he needs a glass of water, he opens the fridge taking out a bottle of water, he was about pouring the water into a glass cup he has collected earlier when Natasha walks in, Natasha had saw him earlier when she came out of her room and decided to use the opportunity to talk to him, Natasha rest her back on the kitchen door, immediately Nathaniel sees her.

NATHANIEL

NATASHA

Nathaniel pour the water on the glass

NATHANIEL

NATASHA

NATHANIEL
(Annoy)

NATHANIEL
(Shouting)
