“Geez Rissa. You come get it yourself. My hands can’t get to it.” Everly said and Rissa turned to look at her.
She was actually seated, reading a book.
“Please Everly. You’re a bit taller than I am. Try, you’ll be able to get it… C’mon.” She pouted, making a cute baby face.
Everly shook her head and turned to the shelf. She stood on her toes and tried reaching for the book.
Rissa chuckled and turned to the book she was reading.
Everly was still trying to reach it when someone help her with it. She turned to see Marcus smiling with the book in his hand.
“Hey.” She smiled at him.
“You didn’t reply my text last night.” He said and Everly’s eyes widened.
She remembered she was about replying when Wanted came in. d@mn him!
“Oh… I’m sorry, It-”
“C’mon Everly, the- hah! Marcus!” Rissa gushed seeing him.
“Hey Rissa.” He called ruffling her hair and she giggled.
The two went to seat beside her.
“Here.” Everly gave her the book which she collected.
“So what are you doing?” He asked.
“Reading a novel.” She replied.
“What’s the name?” He asked.
“To die for love.” She replied showing him the book.
“Whoa! To die for love by Eleanor Rogers?” He asked and she nodded.
“Wow, I’ve also read it. Eleanor Rogers is my favorite romance writer and this book is my favorite, I don’t mind reading it over and over again, d@mn!” He squealed.
“Really? Eleanor Rogers is also my favorite writer.” Everly said and he smiled.
“Guess we have the same taste for novels.” He said and Everly chuckled.
“I guess.”
“Can I have the book?” He requested.
“Of course, sure… I’m done reading it actually.” She said and gave him the book.
He stretched his hands to take the book and their hands brushed in process.
They both stared at the hand and looked at each other, their eyes locked.
Rissa looked at them and cleared her throat loudly and they broke the stare.
He smiled at her before taking the book.
“Uhmm, Everly. I’ll be in the class.” She said and Everly nodded.
“Okay.”
Rissa smiled standing up then she began leaving the library. She paused at the door and turned to look at them, then she smiled.
Maybe she and Marcus didn’t have any destiny and besides, they look good together with each other.
She thought as she watched them talk and laugh and that brought a smile on her face.
Marcus isn’t a bad guy, he will be a nice pair with her. She thought.

Sienna sighed coming out of the restroom.
She was walking past the male restroom when she began hearing hot Mõ@ns of pleasure.
She frowned. “Geez! Disgusting.” She muttered shaking her head.
She was about walking away but paused, she turned back with a creased brows.
Her feet began walking on her own towards the door. Just immediately she got there, the door opened and Winter walked out, arranging her hair. She paused when she saw her.
Sienna scoffed seeing her. She has always thought of her as a bítch anyways.
Winter rolled her eyes before walking away, swaying her big @$$.
The door opened again and Reddy walked out, adjusting his belt. Sienna’s mouth fell seeing him.
“Sienna.” Reddy called with widened eyes.
Sienna let out a fake chuckle.
“Of all girls, it had to be her… Geez, you really lack taste of women.” Sienna said and started walking away.
“At least, she’s better off than a girl who dresses and act more of a man.” He said with a smirk, walking behind her.
“Then go be with her.” She huffed before walking away.
“Geez! She really has a temper.”
°°°
“Lewis!” Rissa yelled, waving at Lewis who was at the far end of the hallway.
Lewis smiled walking to her. “Yo girl, where are you off to?… Without your friends?” He asked and Rissa chuckled.
“They left me… Everly is busy with Marcus and Daphne,,, ion know.” She said.
“Where are you off to?” He asked.
“LH… You?”
“Same.” He said.
“Alright, we could go together.” He said and they started walking there with Rissa blabbering on and on.

“Seven years ago, Mrs Lina Garcia was accused of murdering her husband. She was trialled in court and found guilty. Then she was sentenced to life imprisonment… Rumors had it that she was wrongly accused… Make out an investigation, proving whether Mrs Lina Garcia is guilty or not.” The lecturer said.
“She has already been proven guilty, why waste our time on this?” Lewis rolled his eyes, saying that aloud.
“Don’t question me Lewis.” She sent him a glare.
“Your assignment must be submitted two weeks from now.” She said sternly and picked things and left the class.
“Geez, this will be one hell of an assignment.” Rissa exhaled.
“I guess we’ll be paying Mrs Lina Garcia a visit.” Everly said.
°°°
She furrowed her brows. “What’s he doing here?” She asked herself and just then Wanted turned to her.
“Finally, you’re done. Let’s go.” He said walking to her.
As he walked towards her Everly couldn’t stop herself from swaying. She began noticed his physical appearance and his charismatic walking steps… His handsome face which had a smile on it was enough to give her butterflies.
WTH!
“Hey.” Wanted flicked his fingers on her face and she jolted.
“Dripping already?” Wanted smirked, brushing his hair backwards with his fingers.
Everly gulped.
“Wow… This is new.” He smiled wryly.
“Let’s go.” He said holding her palm and Everly could swear she felt a spark immediately his palms touched hers.
Unlike when Marcus held her earlier today, this was completely different. It was like an electric spark…
She quickly withdrew her hands from his.
“What’s wrong?” Wanted asked as she was staring at him with wide and puzzled eyes.
Everly shook her head when she couldn’t utter a word, then she began running away, hurriedly like she was being chased.
