"Did you hear me the first time ....I am not sharing this room with you so get out " Mira said to David.
David stood back and sighed. Watching her dry her hair, she had just taken a shower.
"I am sorry but it seems the other rooms are unavailable " he muttered.
Mira scoffed glaring back at him, "Is that a joke ?".
"No, I just spoke to Karlye " he replied.
Mira noticed his serious look and sighed.
She moved to the bed and lay back "make sure not to even try to touch me . If you do ....your sleeping outside in the hallway" she said.
David moved to the bathroom to take a shower too. And when he returned she was sound asleep.
Quietly he moved closer and glanced down at her.
"Why do you look so exhausted " he muttered ,dark circles under her eyes where visible now without makeup . Moving his hand to her face but then stopped midway, remembering what she had told him.
He pulled back, dried his hair and lay down beside her. He sighed gazing at her back facing him.
Suddenly Mira moved turning to his side. Slowly, she shifted to him. David didn't move and watched Mira cuddle into his chest with ease as she had always done.
He smiled gazing down at her .
"I guess your body still wants my warmth " he muttered.
He slowly placed his arm on her back .
"Goodnight my sweet peach " he murmured holding her closer.
...
Do you want more ?" Karlye asked Andriana.
"Can I have some strawberries " she pointed them out.
He chuckled, "Not until you finish this ...come on " he brought the spoon to her mouth.
Andriana pouted but opened her mouth.
The others at the table stared at them with awe...it was like none of them existed to the two. They were in their own little world.
Rosie giggled, "It's like you're feeding a baby "
"Well she is a baby to him ...and Andriana seems to be experiencing baby brain nowadays" said Mira.
"Huh...I am not. I just forgot things easily now. And I...I " she turned to Karlye for support.
"It's not that big of a deal, I can help you remember. You can turn into a baby all you want " he said.
"Huh....but I am not ...I don't ". Andriana could hear the others giggling.
She glared back at them including Karlye.
"I think it's time you all left for your respective duties " she got up.
"Love you haven't finished your breakfast " Karlye said to her.
"I am done " she replied walking to her sister.
She placed a kiss on her forehead and wished her a good day at school.
Mira opened her arms too, asking for a hug. Andriana smiled and moved to her side hugging her.
"Call me when you get time " she whispered to her.
Mira smiled nodding.
They got ready and headed out.
"Rosie should I drop you off at school ?" Mira asked.
"I will be taking her today " Karlye spoke out as he gave Andriana a goodbye kiss.
"Oh...." Mira and Andriana exclaimed.
"I asked him to take me " Rosie let out following Karlye to the car.
"Okay, have a nice day at school " Andriana waved back at her sister.
David glanced back at Mira before he got into the car.
"Did you work things out with David ?" Andriana asked.
Mira looked at her, "So it was you who planned it ?".
"I just want you both to work things out. You look so gloomy nowadays, I hate seeing you that way " she replied.
Mira walked to her car, "I am fine ".
"Stop lying, Samantha told me you zone out sometimes at work. You barely even eat your favourite snacks. " You're not fine at all " Andriana said back at her.
Mira waved back at her as she got into her car.
"Have a nice day and I love you " yelled Andriana.
Mira lowered her car window, "I love you too " she smiled back.
Andriana returned to the house to get ready and head to her own business.
....
"Your here ,can we talk ?" Arthur said to Rosie.
Rosie ignored him walking to her seat.
"Please Rosie ....can't you just .. ".
She looked up, "Arthur I thought you heard what I said last night? Please stop doing this ".
He sat down in front of her "I am leaving in a few minutes. My brother is taking me aboard ".
"What ?".Rosie glanced at him.
"Did you say anything about us to Mr Lockhart ?" he asked.
Rosie blinked, "Why do you ask ?".
"Cause he told me brother he wants to talk to me today ...and my brother didn't seem to like that " he explained.
Rosie blinked ,"I...I didnt say anything . But he found out about the bullying done by your girlfriend".
"Huh?!". Arthur frowned.
"I don't know what he wants to say to you but I don't see how much of a big deal it is to get you to leave "she added.
Arthur breathed, "if my brother wants me to leave ...it is a big deal "
Rosie sighed remembering her conversation with Karlye.
A teacher appeared in the class calling Arthur out.
"Someone is here to see you, follow me " said the teacher.
Arthur got up glanced back at Rosie gave her a small wave then walked out.
Jenny and Susan came to her seat asking what Arthur was saying to her.
She didn't reply and pulled out her phone sending Karlye a text.
"Are you mad at Arthur ?"she texted
"Mad ?...no I am not " Karlye replied .
She was going to send another text but the teacher entered the classroom .
...
Arthur arrived at the office and got in, he paused seeing Karlye seated waiting for him.
"You don't look happy to see me ...I thought you knew I was coming " said Karlye.
"Oh I thought it was a house visit later after school "said Arthur.
Karlye gestured for him to sit down.
"Come on take a seat so we can talk " he said.
Arthur moved and sat down gulping.
"So tell me why you failed in the one thing I entrusted you to do " he muttered.
