What is it?
Dorothy stared at him and came to where he was seated.
“What is it?” Calvin asked.
“Nothing, I just wanted to do this,” she replied and kissed his forehead.
She left the living room after that.
“Mia, my daughter I am going to miss you” Calvin’s father said to Dorothy.
“I will miss you too but don’t worry I will visit soon” Dorothy replied.
“What are you guys still waiting for?, use the door already” Calvin said.
“I can’t believe that you are chasing us out of your house” his mother said.
“You better believe it Mrs Dennis” Calvin replied.
“Come on Honey pie, be nice” Dorothy said.
“Leave him Dorothy, thanks for taking care of me” Mr Dennis said.
“It is my pleasure” Dorothy replied.
“Good bye” they said and wanted to leave when Calvin stopped them.
“Wait I am coming” he said and left the living room.
“You forgot this,” he said, dragging Kelly into the living room.
“Leave me alone,” Kelly said.
“We are leaving Kelly,” her mother told her.
“No I am not leaving, Aunt Doro said that I can stay here” she replied.
All heads turned to Dorothy, “is it true Doll?” Calvin asked.
“Yes it is true” Dorothy replied.
“No, she should go now and come back another time,” Calvin said.
“Please Honey pie, allow her to stay” Dorothy said.
“Okay fine but any misconduct, you are gone” he said.
“Thanks Honey pie” Dorothy said.
“Okay then Kelly bye” her parents said and walked towards the door.
“Bye and send my clothes for me,” Kelly said to them.
She then turned to Dorothy and said “thanks, Aunt Doro”.
“You know better to be calling her that” Calvin said.
“You know better to be calling her that’ Kelly said, mimicking Calvin’s voice.
“You brat” Calvin said and came towards her but she ran away.
“She actually did your voice very well,” Dorothy said.
“I am letting her stay here because of you,” he replied.
“Go and sleep,” Calvin said when Dorothy yawned.
“I am not sleepy,” she said.
“I know,” Calvin said, taking her by the hand and leading her towards her room.
He reached there, opened the door and gently pushed her inside.
“Get some sleep” he said and closed the door.
Dorothy went to the bed and laid down on it, “how can I sleep when I am not sleepy” she said.
She started doing the breathing in and breathing out routine to help her sleep and soon she started sleeping.
Kyla was in Edward’s room applying finishing touches of her makeup, she was already dressed up and ready to go.
After she was done, she carried her bag and walked to the door.
“What do you want?” She asked when she opened the door and saw Levi.
“Where is Edward?” Levi asked.
“Don’t know, don’t care,” she replied.
She came out of the room and walked away.
“Where are you going?” Edward asked when he saw her in the way.
“I am visiting my parents, my mom is having her birthday today” she replied.
“Oh, I am sorry I didn’t know,” he said.
“No it is fine, I know that you were busy and don’t worry about presents, I brought some with your money” she said.
“Send my regards to her” Edward said and started walking away.
“Ed” Kyla called and he stopped.
She walked to him, when she was close to him she tiptoed and kissed him on his lips.
“I have something for you when I come back” she said and left.
Edward stood staring at her till she was out of sight.
Dorothy woke up to the sound of someone eating noisily.
“Can’t you eat quietly?” She asked.
“I am sorry,” Mia said.
She got up and went to the bathroom to urinate.
“Your food is here Doro” Mia said when she came out.
“I am not hungry,” she replied and went back to bed.
“Okay, I am going to eat it all by myself,” Mia said.
“Whatever” Dorothy muttered.
“What should you do when your crush likes someone else and they are dating?” Kelly typed at her google.
“Ask him if he likes you back, move on?, stupid shit” she said and closed her laptop.
“I know what I am going to do, I am going to just be myself,” she said.
“I really hope that I can be myself,” Kelly said, adjusting the quilt and laying on the bed.
“I like the egg so much,” Kelly said, stuffing her mouth with scrambled eggs.
“If you don’t stop talking, you are going to eat your food in the kitchen” Calvin warned.
“I am going to endure whatever you do to me brother” She replied.
The dining room opened and Dorothy walked in, “you are late for breakfast” Calvin said.
“I know, I parked mine,” Dorothy replied.This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
“Just wanted to say goodbye to you” she added and pecked his cheek.
“You won’t tell me goodbye Aunt Doro” Kelly said.
“Oh I am sorry bye Kel” Dorothy said to her.
“Bye,” she said.
“Doro be fast!” Someone called from the door.
“Honey pie, I will be going now bye” Dorothy said and rushed out of the room.
“Were you feeding him there?” Mia asked as they walked out of the house.
“Yeah I was,” Dorothy replied.
They entered the car that was waiting for them and the driver drove them to school.
“We are here Madam” the driver announced.
Dorothy and Mia came out of the car and rushed into the school.
They ran towards their classes and settled down for the lectures.
“You know what to do right?” Celine asked the girl who was sitting beside her in the car.
“Yes Miss S” the girl replied.
“If you fail what will happen?” Celine asked.
“You are going to destroy me” the girl replied.
“That’s good, I am glad you understood what is at stake here” Celine said.
“Now get out and do your job” she added.
“Yes Miss S” the girl said and got out of the car.
Immediately the girl was out of the car, it drove away.
“Brimford university, Sydney Australia, here I come” the girl said and went into the school.
“Dorothy Dennis, can we see your sketch?” The lecturer asked her.
“Sure” Dorothy replied and gave him her sketchbook.
“Magnificent, class what do you think?” He asked showing the sketch.
“Wow, it is great, amazing” the class said.
“You will be representing our school in the upcoming fashion show, you will be the lead fashion designer” the lecturer said.
“Sir but…”
“There is no but, you are a good fashion designer so you are the one I chose” he interrupted.
“Okay sir, thank you so much I promise to make everyone proud” Dorothy said.
“I know you are going to do that, okay let’s get back to today’s lecture” he said and continued teaching.
“Wow that is really big” Mia said.
“I know right, going to the fashion show is going to help me a lot both in skills and connection” Dorothy replied.
“Yeah this calls for a celebration, wait we have a pending celebration right?” Mia asked.
“Yes, we are going to celebrate them all today” Dorothy replied.
“Let me order more food” she said and went to the bar to get more food.
“This new girl is something else, I think she hates wearing clothes” a girl that was also buying food said to her friend.
“She is definitely here to seduce boys are not to read” her friend replied.
“Look at her” the girl said.
A loud commotion was heard and Dorothy looked at the place to see a semi naked girl walking towards the cafeteria.
The girl got closer and Dorothy gasped as she recognized the girl.
She turned to the counter immediately, “what the hell is she doing here?” She thought.
The boys in the cafeteria started whistling and Dorothy knew that she has arrived there.
“What should I get you babe?” Dorothy heard the sales boy asked.
She looked and saw that the girl was already in the counter.
“No attend to others first” the girl replied.
“What do you want?” The guy asked Dorothy.
Dorothy didn’t reply but walked back to their table.
“Where is the food?” Mia asked.
“We will eat later, let’s go” Dorothy replied.
“Why, I am still hungry” Mia said.
Dorothy pulled her up from the chair and dragged her out of the cafeteria.
“Doro, what is going on?” Mia asked when they were outside.
“Nothing is wrong, I just lost appetite to eat” Dorothy replied.
“Are you sure?, cause you seem tense” Mia asked.
“I am fine Mia, let just go back to our classes, I promise that we will celebrate later” Dorothy said.
“Okay fine” Mia says and they walked back to their classes.
All through the classes, Dorothy couldn’t concentrate.
Forgotten memory kept replaying in her mind and she tried to shut it out but to no avail.
