✰[NICE B@@bS, BTW]✰
“Who…are you?” Jade asked, slowly.
“Hello. I’m Whitney Kennerson and I wanna ask if you need a new roommate?” The girl asked, carefully.
“Huh?? Uh…Maybe? Ah…Yeah. Yeah. I do. Why?” Jade asked, with widened eyes.
Whitney inhaled.
“That’s good then. I would like to be your roommate if you don’t mind”
“Excuse me? But,,, don’t you think you’re being too fast? We don’t know each other. You didn’t even ask for an introduction” Jade forced a nervous chuckle.
She was suspicious of Whitney already.
“Are you kinda suspecting me?” Whitney suddenly asked.
Jade widened her eyes the more.
“Huh!…Uh…I wouldn’t say that. Anyways, Who are you really? What is your major? What year?”
“Economics. Final year” Whitney smiled.
“I’m also in my finals. wow. And guess what, I’m Economics too. Is this fate?” Jade raised a brow.
Whitney just scoffed, in a laughable way. It was short and obnoxious.
“Can I have a good look at the room?” She asked, trying to get in.
Jade, however, stopped her.
“Hold on. I haven’t accepted you yet. I haven’t seen you in WSU…So,,, How did you get here? Your face doesn’t look familiar and it doesn’t ring a bell either”
“Then,,, I suppose you know all the students in WSU?” Whitney asked, back.
“Nah…I mean the fact that I don’t see you during class. Your face doesn’t ring a bell at all. You sure you even study here? Economics? Final year? You sure,,, your- Jade paused and coughed, dramatically.
Jade pointed to her head.
“Your brain still intact?” She asked.
Whitney frowned lightly.
“Pardon?”
“Whitney? Where’s your room?” It was her mum’s voice.
“F*ck” Whitney whispered and looked in front. She displayed a sweet smile on her face and nodded.
“Yes mum. She’s my roommate” Whitney quickly held Jade’s arm.
“What are you doing?” Jade demanded.
“Sshh…Please,,, help me” Whitney whispered.
Jade looked in front and her eyes fell on a tall beautiful lady. She seemed young though. She is actually Mrs Kennerson.
She wore a black well fitted short gown over red heels. Her cleavages was exposed.
She had curly blonde hair which fell on her shoulders.
On her hand was a black designer’s purse.
“Is…she your mum?” Jade whispered.
“Yes” Whitney whispered back.
“Wow” Jade muttered.
“Hi…You must be my daughter’s roommate?” Shannon asked.
“Huhmmm…
Whitney quickly pinched Jade who was still humming.
“Ow” Jade Mõ@ned.
“You alright?” Mrs Kennerson asked.
Jade forced a chuckle and nodded.
“Yes Ma’am. I’m Whitney’s roommate, Jade Hawkins. I’ve heard a lot about you from…Whitney”
Mrs Kennerson smiled.
“Oh…I see. Whitney can be a blabber mouth, you see”
“Uff! Nah…Its fine. We’re great. She’s the best roommate ever” Jade looked at Whitney who smiled nervously at her.
“I’m glad you both get along well. See you both later. By the way, I’m Shannon Kennerson” She stretched her hand.
“Oh…Its a pleasure to meet you, Miss Shannon” Jade gave her a handshake.
“Same here, Jade. Same here. I’ll leave you both alone now to catch all the fun” Miss Shannon smiled and looked at Whitney who quickly gave her a big fake smile.
Shannon winked and walked away, swinging her moderate but elaborated hips.
“Wow. She’s so pretty” Jade cooed.
She looked at Whitney who was still on the lookout.
Jade scoffed and jerked her arm off Whitney’s hand.
“I’m truly sorry about that. But thanks. You saved my life”
“Can you explain everything? Like girl!! The h*ll”
IN THE ROOM**
“I actually got transferred this week to this university here after relocating with my family but I didn’t wanna come. Mum gave me enough money for tuition and lodging but i-
“You spent them all?” Jade cut in.
“No!” Whitney shook her head and waved her arms.
“Actually,,, I paid for everything except my lodging fee. Its still intact though. Actually,, I’m a kind of girl who doesn’t like interacting with new people. So,,, I- Whitney paused and breathed in deeply.
“I stayed at a late night studio instead. I didn’t want to be known around Washington, its school and its lodging area” Whitney said.
Jade shook her head.
“I guess I was right. You did skip class. So,,, for a week now,,, You’ve been at the studio?”
“Only during nightfall. I work at a convenience store during the day” Whitney explained.
“Where do you once live before relocating?” Jade asked.
“Florida..” Whitney answered.
“Oh,,, I see” Jade nodded.
“I see you don’t interact. You aren’t the social type?” Jade asked.
“Hmm,,,You could say that. I just do my things and leave,, that’s all. However, I’m a social type. Its just I prefer to do things without people”
“Why not?”
“People never last”
“Huh? Why do you say so?”
“I live with my mum and little brother and for years now,,, we’ve been moving from one state, and place to another all over USA. So,,, Its better I don’t get attached to people. It’s a waste of time since I’ll end up leaving again”
Jade smiled and held her hand.
“Do you wanna get the feeling of real attachment even if it’s just for a short period of time?” She asked.
“What do you mean?” Whitney asked.
“Be my roommate” Jade smiled.
“Don’t worry, I’ll take care of you” She winked.
Whitney smiled.
“I wanted to ask if your dad. and why you and your family move around but I thought it would be something personal” Jade said.
“Well. It is. Sorta” Whitney shrugged.
“Wait…” Jade took out her phone.
“Can I get your phone number?” She gave it to Whitney
“Sure” Whitney said.
“I’m also on WhatsApp” She smiled.
“Great. Save your contact, Go to my WhatsApp and leave a message on your contact” Jade instructed and stood up.
“Lemme get you a bottle of…juice?” Jade smiled, walked further and opened the small refrigerator.
Whitney went to WhatsApp after saving her own contact. She dropped a hi on the inbox and sent it.
Whitney smiled when she heard a beep on her phone.
She noticed something on Jade’s phone though. Her WhatsApp wall paper, precisely.
She used a very handsome and hot guy.
“Wow. He’s so handsome. Could it be her boyfriend?” She muttered and looked up to see Jade coming forward with a smile on her face.
She had 2 bottles of lemon juice with her.
