“You can’t be serious!”  Austin’s Father fumed as he barged into his room. “Get up from there now”


    Austin used the pillow to cover his head to prevent himself from hearing his father’s voice. He felt his father aggressively grab the pillow from him


    “What is it this time?” Austin reluctantly asked his father with his eyes still shut.


    “I said, get up!”


    He slowly stood up and sat at the edge of the bed.


    “I know your mother’s death has been tough on you”


    “Oh please dad” He interrupted his father immediately, standing up to leave, but his father grabbed him by the arm and pulled him back to the bed.


    “Listen to me! I have condoned your disrespect and every other thing, but so help me God this continues. I’ll…”


    “You would what?” He stood up immediately facing his dad with no space left between them. His father was dark as night, his beard rough and hair scattered like he had no time for himself.


    “What would you do that you haven’t done before Dad?”


    His father held his fist and sighed slowly with anger building in him.


    “Go to school today”


    “I can’t, I’m suspended ”


    “I don’t care what you can do and cannot do, go to school or else you better find somece to stay because you are not going to live with me with this shitty attitude” his father instructed him as he left his room leaving the door wide open.


    Austin let out a sigh of relief as he threw himself back on his bed, how could his dad wake him up by 5 am just to say this, when then did he get the news? He had hoped the principal wouldn’t call him but it happened anyways and how would he get back to school? All these thoughts made waves in his head. He couldn’t sleep anymore so he took to doing his chores that morning. He might not enjoy listening to his father but he couldn’t bear the sight of dirt around him, so he made it a point of duty to always clean.  He couldn’t go to school as early as 7:30 am because he was sure the principal would be hanging around the school entrance. Following the bus wasn’t an option either. He couldn’t stay home, this morning incident showed him a side of his father he had never seen and he wasn’t sure he was ready to leave his house yet.  Yes! The thought struck him, N would dly go with him if he called her, the only problem was she hadn’t returned any of his calls and that meant she wasn’t ready to speak to him yet.


    He left home with his usual pocket money left by his father and started his journey on foot. After walking for a few minutes almost at the school, he could see ady with her head held down, swinging her hands and walking slowly. Her blonde hair was not styled and it suddenly dawned on him, that was Tasha. He was surprised she was still here. Swallowing his pride, he crossed over and approached her.


    “Hey, you are still around?”


    Tasha raised her head slowly, with her eyebags swollen like someone whocked a good night’s sleep. She didn’t look happy to see him either, he could tell.


    “Oh, if it isn’t our perfect gentleman ” she greeted him, feigning a smile.  She walked right past him.


    ” Hey, you don’t look so good” He held her back. She stared back at his hands boldly stered on hers and looked back at him.


    “Let’s get something straight Austin” removing his hands


    ” We aren’t friends, you don’t care! So why are you bugging me?”


    “I’m sorry for yesterday, I shouldn’t have left you”


    “That’s you apologizing twice in a space of two days, how often do you piss people off?”


    “Oh you don’t know the half of it” Austin smiled


    “It’s not funny”


    “I’m sorry Tasha, you don’t look so good”


    “I know right ” Tasha sulked as she looked at herself from head to toe with specks of dirt all over her. ” My life was better in Brooklyn, Trust me. You would be begging me to talk to you”


    “And how did that get into this context?” Austin questioned


    “I’m just saying, Incase you feel I’m not attractive”


    “Well you are not”


    She looked at him interrogatively  “you know that’s not true”


    “Well you look like shit right now, you shoulde to freshen up at my ce, then you could hang around and I’lle to see you off at the park this evening after school”


    Tasha was silent for a bit, indecisive about what to say. This was the same boy who left her for dead yesternight. She couldn’t have one minute of rest as she was at war with mosquitoes who came to camp with her. But he seemed like a nice person amidst all his terrible attitude, she thought to herself.


    “Well then, let’s get going. Wouldn’t want poor Austin to bete because of me” she gestured to him to lead the way.


    *Oh I’d be the president of the Late colony if there was something like that” he chuckled.


    “So what grade are you in?”


    “None of your business Tasha”


    Austin had here with him and looked at his cell phone to check the time. His father should be out already, he thought. The road was free and silent like a graveyard and he was d. He wouldn’t want neighbors seeing him with ady this early, talk less of her looking unkempt. They got to his ce and he told her to wait while he went inside to check for something, he only wanted to be sure that his father was out.  He came back and told her she coulde in. Tasha walked in looking around the house, the red carpet with Tiger skin made herfortable, at least her legs needed the change. The sitting room was filled with just three red leather seater couches.


    “You could have just told me you wanted to make sure no one was home” Tasha spoke up as she followed Austin. She saw a family photo hung up on the wall. Two short boys with ck dyed hair and a man and woman standing in between them.


    “Who’s that other boy, because I’m sure as hell the ugly-looking boy is you” Tasha questioned him as she stopped, fixing her gaze on the photo.


    “Let’s just make sure you freshen up and leave here” he replied her and Signalled her to follow him up to his room. After she got in, she took off her gown immediately and Austin quickly turned his face.


    “What’s it” Tashaughed, “you can’t tell me you haven’t seen ady naked before”


    “Well…you.. should have just told me before you took it off” Austin stammered as he backed her.


    She smiled, she couldn’t believe it. He hasn’t been with a girl before. She took off herced panties and she wasn’t on bras because she hated them. Standing naked, She looked around his room and it had nothing, Just nothing. No basketball-rted photos, pornographic pictures, Just nothing at all. You couldn’t get any impression from being in the room.


    “Your room sucks, are you this sad?”


    “Can you get into the bathroom already?” Austin replied with his back still facing her.


    “Or what?” She muttered slowly walking towards him, Austin could feel she wasing and felt his leg shaking again.


    “Come on, Just turn a bit. Have a glimpse” she tilted her to look at his face to face with her body still behind him.


    “Just go Tasha, I don’t want to bete for school”


    “But you said..”


    “Forget what I said and go and take a shower”


    Sheughed and went into the bathroom. Austin immediately sat on his bed with his hands on his chest, he could hear his heart pounding. After some seconds, he could hear the water sshing in the bathroom.


    “Get me some clothes” Tasha screamed from the bathroom


    “I don’t have any sisters, remember? So what would you wear?”Content is property ? N?velDrama.Org.


    “Just get me any of your clothes, dumbo” she replied


    “God she’s so annoying” he whispered to himself.


    He went into his wardrobe and shuffled his clothes, his ck T-shirt was too precious to him for her to have it. He got his yellow armless Lakers Jersey with Durant’s name inscribed on the back and one of his ck Pants. He went over to his bathroom and knocked twice, opened it slowly, and put his hands in stretching his hands to give the clothes to Tasha.


    “I can’t reach it”


    He leaned a bit further, lost his bnce, and ended up on the floor.


    “Ouch,” he whimpered in pain as he grabbed his head with his hand. Forgetting she was naked, he looked up and Gulped down hard. Droplets of water run down her caramel thighs, her tits perfectly shaped and her nipples pointy which were a bit darker than herplexion.


    “Hello! My Clothes!” Tasha asked, bringing back to reality. Austin hurriedly stood up and dropped the clothes on her hands.


    “I’m sorry, I’m sorry” he stuttered as he went out of the bathroom immediately.


    “God she’s a goddess”, He thought, the picture of her naked constantly reying in his head.


    “And those are my Clothes, not your Tasha!” Austin screamed.


    Tasha smiled as he heard him “I’m surprised you found the voice to say something after what happened” she replied while styling her hair with hisb there, she found his bathroom amazingly neat for a guy. She stretched her hair with theb and made sure it was straight as ever without leaving any curly parts.


    She came out of the bathroom and saw Austin busy with his cellphone


    “How do I look?”


    He turned and looked back at her. His Jersey perfectly fit her body, she looked lost in it but her slender arms and shoulder striking beauty. The pants folded at her feet as if it wasn’t her match. Her smile caught his attention as she asked him the question, lost in every minute of it as her lips got wide with excitement.  Her skin was glowing like the best thing he had ever seen, she was everything beautiful to him.


    “You could easily pass as my younger brother,” he managed to say.


    “What?”


    ” You heard me”


    He peeped at his wall clock, “we have to go now, I should be in school already. Where would I find you?”


    “I’ll find you,” she said smiling


    Surprised by her statement and still looking puzzled, “well that’s not creepy” he said.


    He and Tasha made their way out of his house and He locked up


    “I’ll see youter bro,” Austin said to her as he made his way to school again


    “Ha, ha so funny” she fakedughter as she waved him goodbye smiling.
