Chapter 3: Chapter 3 I Am Feeling Sorry
"Let us hurry, Khaye, Jazzy. I can only go until 9 o'clock in the evening." As I dragged Khaye and Jazzy.
"Slowly, we might still stumble." Jazzy is trying to stop me.
"I need to see Apollo before my time is up." I stopped for a moment and then ran again.
Cloyd texted where they were. I want to go to the places that Apollo also wants to go. I want to know all his trips and learn to like them too so we can jam together.
Cloyd is really reliable. When he saw us he waved and then secretly pointed to Apollo's seat. They were accompanied by their male friends and some women. They are just hanging out in a restaurant that has just opened here. I do not mind even if he has a woman next to him.
"Hi, Pot!" I feel like I am in front of him.
He is laughing with the lady so I suddenly disturbed them. They looked at me at the same time.
"Who is she?" Poor lady's question.
"I am Zaphia. Who are you?" I am a little bit sarcastic. Yeah! I admit that I got jealous of this lady.
"I am Ayra! Apollo's date." This lady is a bit arrogant too!
"Really? Well, I don't care about you. I am here for Apollo.
You are not good together." After I said that I left.
I really got hurt! He is dating another lady. I run off. Jazzy and Khaye followede me.
I invited them to come home. As much as I want to stay and mess with Apollo and Ayra, I need to go home. I cannot disobey the order of the dear queen because I will not be allowed to leave at night again. My mom told be I must be home at nine o'clock.
"Did you see the lady next to Apollo?" I asked when we were in the cab.
"Not so much. Who is that?" Jazzy ased.
"She is a jerk. Apollo allegedly dated her." I still frowned.
"It might have been true if Apollo hadn t reacted. Zaphi, maybe he really wants someone else. "Khaye looked at me because she was in front seat.
"I do notcare about that lady!" I was even more frustrated.
There is no other woman who matters to Apollo but me. He is a prince and I am a certified princess. I never thought I would like someone this way. I do not know how to give up. I am not tired. I am hurt but I will my best to get rid of that lady.
At the university ...
"How much?" Apollo asked when he ordered food.
"It is free! It is from her" I requested the seller to give it to Apollo and I already paid for it.
When Apollo looked at me, I waved at him.
I smile.
When I saw him approaching my seat I adjusted myself.
"Miss, the man should be doing this to you. You shouldn't be doing this to the man." He said seriously and laid the food in front of me.
"No, no, that is really for you. Then again, my name is Zaphia. You keep on calling me Miss. If you call me Miss again, I will kiss you." I joked mischievously with him and brought the food back to him.
"It is as hard as pronouncing your name. It is easier to call you Miss." His face is still serious.
"If you want it easy, just call me Zaf." I suggested him.
"Fine! Can I ask you a favor?" Maybe his personality is really calm. Emotionless?
"Me too! I will ask for a favor. Can you smile first? Just make -up good vibes." I really want him to smile at me too.
If he is handsome when he is serious I am sure he is even more handsome when he smiles.
"Take back what you told Ayra that we are not good together. I feel like she will answer me, but she refused because of what you said the other night." He focused both hands on the table.
"No way! I just told her the truth.
She is too skinny. She looks sickly. "I said frankly.
"I don't care care how she looks lime. What like about her is her attitude." and Apollo was about to leave.
"All right, just like that, I will help you woo her." I suddenly thought to say.
"Wow! You must be kidding." He turned to me again.
"I am not. I will help you." I assure him.
Looks like it is a good idea. Because when I do that I will be closer to Apollo. And he will treat me nicely too.
I slowly started by saying sorry to Ayra. I had to build up Apollo with her. And because of that, I can be with Apollo when they have a date. That sounds great! So that they do not end up being turned on. And when Ayra is close to answering Apollo, that is the best time to do my power to stop it.
"What are you doing?" Apollo asked me one day when we are still waiting for Ayra to come.
"Haven't you tried it yet? It is so delicious when you dip the fries in ice cream." While I was still eating.
"Your trips are really weird, aren't they? It is dipped in ketchup, not in ice cream." His advice.
"Just try it. You will like it too. It might even be your favorite." I dipped one and then I was ready to suck on it.
I thought he wouldn't eat but gosh! He ate it! I'm so excited! To the bones! I feel like the two of us are dating.
"It is not delicious." He said.
My cellphone rang and I received a text.
"Pot-pot, Ayra cannot come. Suddenly, her mommy is not feeling well." When I report to him.
"What about Ayra? We have been waiting here for a long time and then she won't come." Then he dipped the fries in ice cream.
"All right! That food really reduces stress." I said smiling.
And that is right, instead of them dating, Apollo and I just strolled. This is great. It is nice to feel that he is with me and he is not mad at me. We are like good friends now. I hope someday he will hold my hand while strolling. That would have been more perfect!
One day....
"What's this? The amount of colored papers you're carrying." When I met Apollo in the library.
"You know, we ladies love things that take effort. In our time, men just flirt through text and chat. Write a letter to Ayra. For sure she will be happy. "I suggested to him.
"Really? All right, help me because I don't know how to work on it." He said softly.
I nodded. Every time I was with him and talked to Apollo I could not really get the smile off my lips. Thanks also to my two best buddies for helping me sabotage all of Apollo's plans for Ayra without them noticing.
I have to let Apollo realize that destiny doesn't want Ayra to be his girlfriend.
"I am sorry, Ayra is really different. She throw away your letter. I really feel like she's on drugs. The letter we wrote is so beautiful, so meaningful. She is playing hard-to-get. If I were you, just flirt with others. There are many more other ladies out there. "From a distance, Apollo saw what Ayra had done.
"Maybe I should stop chasing Ayra. Maybe she doesn't really like me." Apollo said sadly.
That is correct! And then I will sympathize with you so that you can turn your attention to me. What a silly girl I was!!!
