Yash's pov

I'm sure she waiting for her second one.

I initially tried looking for Daisy but I soon gave up. I saw her bag but she wasn't in the classroom nor was she in the library. Where could she have gone?

Suddenly, I heard some noises in the changing room. I decided to check it out.

Hmm, seems like a girl, arranging some things, omg Daisy

So this is where she was. What's she doing here anyway?

I crept into the room and check out what she was doing.

It's probably a staff that asked her too.

Oho, she just turned back

Ahhhh!

I jump a little "A teacher told me to help you out" I blurted out quickly trying to hide my shaking hand

She smiles at her work, and I chuckle. She always does that once she feels she's done a good job.

I was about to rub her head, but I decided not to.

Instead, I told her to close her eyes.

She gladly did, I guess she knows what I'm here for then

I licked my lips nervously. I wasn't as nervous as the first time but I felt like we skipped so many procedures already.

I pecked her... for a long time- felt like an eternity.

By the time I left, my lips mark was imprinted on her cheek.

Oops!

Wasn't planning that.

I left after seeing the look on her face

She looked so cute blushing

That made me smile.

The whole week was filled with a lot of pecks and holding hands.

I even tried feeding her which she shyly accepted.

She'd close her eyes savouring the food, making different sounds that could make me redden. I don't know if she's doing it intentionally. But it was obvious she is a foodie.

She's so cute.

I didn't want this week to end to be honest, cause it meant that I'll have to share her with everyone.

Once we resumed we all tried to prepare for the exam, and I tried my best to read with Daisy any time I got and even though everyone looked at me weirdly, I knew it'll pay in the end. She's smart kiddo.

*End of the year

Woah, she bold, a hug uhn? No problem.

End of exam

"So the hug" She looks up at me. I was about to laugh because of how nervous she looked. It's just a hug, besides you already had my permission yesterday.

Seeing that I wasn't intending to say anything she went for it.

Huff!

That's one tight hug, she so soft. Like a cushion. I resisted hugging her cause I thought it was going to look like 'who's going to hug me to death first ' and I didn't want to be part of that.

Phew!

I'm finally released from the gorilla hug. She looked up at me again

"What does she want me to say" I scrunched my nose while looking into her brown eyes.

Oho!

She looks disappointed

"Does she think I don't like it?"

Without thinking I grab her hand and drag her close burying her in one f my hugs.

*sigh*

I finally breathe in, I guess it's a bit different when you're the one giving the hug. Her cherry-filled scent is so soothing, it made my eyes look heavy, Omg! she's driving me crazy

Just then she returns the hug. I grin, this feels so amazing. I wish time could just stop allowing me to savour this moment. But then she pats me on the back

Time to go.

I release her and ask" Are you okay" While looking at her both eyes.

She nods

Errr what now!

I keep looking at her and then she smiles

Okay, I'm about to burst out laughing, but then again I don't want to ruin the moment. So I hold her gaze a little longer before she looks down.

I guess she's not going to talk then.

I peck both of her cheeks (Her eyes open, I was more confident than the first time), though she stills flinch then ... blush.

We both left the cases and soon enough, we went home. Such a blissful way to end the term.

***

Second term.

Finally!

I'd see everyone again. I was so happy to resume that I forgot to brush my hair before running down the stairs

"Your hair?" Dad said looking at me with one of his brows up

I smiled and rushed back upstairs.

"Unlike my mum who wears the cape of 'the scary crone', my dad is the exact opposite. He is my best friend and my role model. I want to be as good as he is now and maybe even better." I thought while brushing my hair "I guess I have a long way to go" I sighed dropping the brush and admiring myself in the mirror. I quickly rushed down and that earned me a stare from my mum "I think she has anger issues" and I fear that I have those too.

***

"I won't be coming tomorrow" Daisy spilt out

"What!" I internally screamed. Ral and I faced her immediately, our eyes bulging out.

It took me some minutes to process the information and I wished she said a "Gotcha" after she said that.

I opened my mouth to finally talk but, her mum was here for her already.

Why today?

She could've just left her to follow Mr Dales.

"What are you gonna do" Ral looked at me, curiosity spelt on his forehead.

I collapsed into my chair and stared at the ceiling. I thought fr a while and then turned to face him, "What can I do?"

Ral got up from his chair and walked towards me"Hang in there bro"

That's all he said then he left.

We were just busy comparing his relationship with Aba and my relationship with Daisy.

Turns out Aba doesn't look at him as anything but a friend. And I was just advising him. I told him to look at me and Daisy. Who would believe we were not friends at first.

So much for giving advice.
