CHAPTER Forty five
It was another day in school and Romeo intended meeting up with Bianca to know why he had acted in such a harsh way towards Giovanni. However as time went on, he couldn’t locate her, causing him to get worried about her safety. Knowing the tyoe of person Giovanni was, he could do anything which would intend to hurt her.
“Hey” He was brought out of his thoughts by Doris’ who had a kind of gloomy face.
“Hey” He replied.
“Seen Bianca?” She asked trying to clean up a tear dropping out of her eye.
“Nope. What seems to be the issue” He asked feeling empathy for her.
“Nothing. I will uhmmm be heading home now. See you around” Before he could stop her, she was already off. He sighed and went back to the cafeteria to get something to drink.
While drinking, he had a thought; Doris would probably open up to whatever that was causing her go emotional in a private space. The only problem was thaf he didn’t know where she was staying. He picked up his phone and ringed Bianca up and she picked
“Yeah” Her tiring voice spoke through the phone.
“Why aren’t you in school?” He asked through the phone.
“Had some shits to attend to”
“We gotta talk Bianca” He indicated
“About what?” Her curious voice got him chuckling
“Don’t worry it isnt a thing to be worried about. Anyways, know where Doris stays?” He asked
“Yea I will text you the location. Any problem?”
“Not really, I intend to go pay her a surprise visit” He said with a smile
“I just pray she doesn’t get pissed with your unannounced visit” Typical of Doris, Romeo knew that she loved her privacy more than anything.
“I don’t think she will” He said.
“Anyways, I will text you her location soon enough, just hold up a bit” She said, hanging up the phone.
Few minutes later, he got the location. He hurriedly adjusted his jacket and dropped his bill on the buttom of the drink and left the cafeteria.
It took Romeo an hour getting to the described location Bianca had texted him; Doris sure lives rally far way from the school he thought to himself. When he came face to face with the structure of her apartment, he stared in awe; Doris apartment was huge and could possibly make for a family apartment. He wondered how rich her dad could possibly be but shook the thought off his head. He wasn’t here for money but to know more about why she was emotional. He pressed the door bell and waited for a response and didn’t get any. He pressed the door bell once more and didn’t get any reply. He tried opening the door and surprisingly, it wasn’t locked and head inside the house. He checked to see her car packed but the garage was opened and so he wondered why she hadn’t responded.

Doris was in tears, crying her eyes out when she heard the sound of her door opened, she looked up from her bed and was surprised to see Romeo standing at the door.
“How, how the hell did you get here” She said in the midst of her teary state.
“I have my ways” He said surveying her room “Nice room though” she said getting really impressed by the interior of her room
“Yeah thanks but what are you here?” She asked again. Romeo slowly approached her bed and sat dow, staring at her closely.
“I couldn’t help but noticed you weren’t looking like the Doris we all know. What seems to be the issue?”
“And so, you decided to come over my house to tell me?” Romeo couldn’t understand why she was suddenly getting pissed with him.
“Doris, I understand that I broke the rules of breaking into your space unannounced but I couldn’t help it” He said.
“You could have just ignored Romeo. Like you already said, I am a very private person and I sure can be really pissed if someone breached my privacy. So I will advise that you just leave me alone and leave my apartment immediately” Romeo thought for a moment; would it be safe to leave her in this state? Knowing the type of girl she was, there was all tendencies that she could harm herself.
“I am not leaving until you tell me. I promise you, I am not the type to ever snitch” He assured her.Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
“Look, I don’t want to call the police on you for trespassing into my property and so I will advise you leave” She Instructed.
Romeo stood up and was about leaving when he stopped for a moment and turned to look at the drugs on her table. He got curious for a second and went to check them out.
“ROMEO!! GET YOUR HANDS OFF MY SHIT!” Doris rushed out of the bed to snatch the drug from his hand.
“What the fuck?” He said in disbelief seeing the content of the drug before it had been snatched from his hand.
“Were you really trying to kill yourself?”
“Fuck off!” She replied stepping away to place the drugs at the top of her wardrobe.
“Leave Romeo” She replied after placing them successfully at the top of the wardrobe.
“Or you will call the police on me for trespassing?” He asked holding his waist.
“Yes”
“Well, I could possibly call the police right now and inform them about your attempted suicide. I may not fully know anything about the law but I do know that suicide is an offence” Doris sighed, returning back to her bed.
“What is the issue Doris? You can confide in me and I assure you that I will keep it a secret” he said approaching her bed.
“You really want to know?” She asked looking at him
“Of course, I want to know, I could possibly help with the situation if possible” He informed her
“I don’t think you can” she replied.
“Tell me then” He moved closer to her, holding her hands.
**********
“It’s my ex, I honestly thought he loved me. I never knew he was a certified Play boy. I had gone to his house uninvited. When I got in, I heard strange noises coming up from his bedroom and i thought to myself, he could possibly be watching porn; I mean who on earth gives that kind of excuse when it is clear that he is having sex. I opened his room quietly and caught him in bed with two separate girls and guess the hurtful part, read girls happen to be my cousins! He was hitting my cousins comfortably” It took every ounce in Romeo’s body not to stand up and punch the wall. He was really pissed and he was ready to kill anyone in this state.
“I wish I had known, I out up my emotions towards him and I never knew he was cheating” She indicated.
“Cheating? Were you two dating?” Romeo asked confused by her words.
“Uhmm…. Not really but hey I imagined myself as his girlfriend…. Crazy right? Yeah I know, I acted so foolish because of love” She replied with regret laced in her tone.
“Don’t be hard on yourself Doris” Romeo moved closer to her, rubbing her back in a soothing manner to comfort her.
“I was foolish to see that I was only chasing the winds!”
“No you weren’t, Jace was only a jerk” He tried to make her understand.
“A really big one” She replied. “I don’t think I could ever love again” Those words hurt Romeo; he really need her to see how true love worked.
“Don’t say that!! I believe you will find the right guy for you. Someone that could understand you, willing to grow with you, and ready to face the challanges that you will face too” Doris looked at Romeo surprisingly.
“Really? Can I find someone like that?” Romeo smiled at her and closed the only distance left between them on the bed
“You may have probably found the one” He said with a smile on his face.
“Who?” She asked still confused.
Romeo knew this was the opportunity; he either kiss her now or forget about it. He knew this was the only way to show her how he feel. He crashed his lips unto hers and it caught Doris in surprise. His eyes were shit as he enjoyed the intense moment with her. Her lips tasted like candy and moved them slowly, asking for entrance into her tongue. Doris was sure she wasn’t in her right state of mind and was trying to get herself to let go but she couldn’t as she was also intensified by his touch in so many ways.
Romeo was enjoying the moment until it was caught short by her and a slap afterwards graced his cheek.
“What the fuck!”
