It was a stressful friday in school.. I came back very weak
and tired,with hunger pangs gnawing at the wall of my
stomach..
.
I lazily fell on my bed,trying to gather up some strength
before looking for what to eat.
.
Then nature took me by surprise..
.
Kpom! kpom.. I heard a slow and steady knock on my
door,which weakly woke me up from sleep..
.
I opened my eyes and was stormed.. The whole room was
dark. I searched for my phone,which I found wrapped up in
my bed sheet..
.
I checked the time,it was 8.49pm at that moment,the same
knock came again..
.
I sluggishly stood up from my big family sized winco
foam,perfectly placed on one corner of my room..
.
I headed for the door with the help of light flashing out from
the screen of my phone..
.
I cluelessly unbolted my door without demanding to know
who was knocking..
.
There stood Stephanie,hands in her jean bum-short
pocket,smiling at me..
.
Stephanie was an attractive female,who caught my fancy
right from the very first day I packed into the new lodge
(Hostel).. She was my opposite door neighbour. Unlike
most girls,she kept to herself. She also had a roommate who
helped in adding salt to her non socializing life..
.
I was able to see her on my first day in the lodge because of
water issue and everybody was forced to come down and
fetch water from the General lodge tap…
.
Since then, I never set my eyes on her till this. very night…
