LOGINKehlani “What would you like to eat?” I asked him, tapping my fingers on the table. He shrugged lazily. “I don't know.”I thought for a while. “Well, would you like chicken noodle soup?”He scrunched his face and shrugged.“Vegetable soup?”The same expression. I rested my hands on my hips and stared up the ceiling. “Okay. I could make rice porridge.” I laughed. His gaze lingered on me through half lidded eyes and hummed. “Well, maybe. I don't know.” He replied, unsure. I sighed. “You seem to be a patient that would stress alot.”“Don't blame me. Blame it on my taste bud.” he swallowed and his face scrunched up, the sore throat would have been so painful. Oh, damn. I feel so sorry for him. I was about to say something before his therapist, jade interrupted me. “I wouldn't make rice porridge if I were you.” We both turned. She was coming downstairs and now she was in a pair of leggings and an oversized sweater. So, that was what she wore when she came in. She stopped by the table
KehlaniShe clutched her chest. “Oh my gosh.”I swallowed and held the medicine bag tight so it wouldn't let go of it. I don't understand what's going on and why there's a woman in here. Why is she halfnaked? Who's she? My fingers tingled and my brain is still trying to process what I'm seeing. “Who are you?!” We both blurted together, then the hallway fell silent. She's a blonde lady. I looked at her face, then her pointed nose and down to her body. Skin like milk. So, Trevor has a nice taste for ladies? And he lied to me he's not seeing anyone. By the way, did he do this on purpose? He knew I was coming and now I'm meeting a lady in a bra and panties. What the hell is going on?I cleared my throat. “Um, hi. I'm just here to see Trevor.”She dropped her hands from her chest revealing her full breasts. “So, who are you?”“I'm his….” I paused. Should I say fake girlfriend or just girlfriend? “I'm a friend.”She flipped her hair. “Well, Trevor isn't himself right now. He doesn't need
Kehlani I stepped into campus when the afternoon was bright and windy. Something caught my attention from the massive digital screen that showcased him. I blinked just to ensure I wasn't seeing things and it was true. Trevor was on the screen. So, he's gotten this popular? How come I've never heard about him? The words flashed across the screen : Manhattan blizzards best player. A small crowd had gathered beneath it, watching. Some girls were talking about how handsome he was. I smiled while watching before walking away. Adjusted my hand bag and found my way to the Art Section. Later, I found myself in the usual lecture hall. The room buzzed and I'm surprised to see Andy in school. He came. He sat beside me and I smiled. “Hey, Kehlani. How are you?” He took the seat next to me. “Hi, Andy. I'm cool. What's up? You came to school today.” I tugged my hair behind my ear. “Yeah. Just decided not to skip today.”“Mhm. Wonderful.” I nodded. “Hope everything is going well for you? And
Kehlani A grin plastered on his lips. “Hey.” He said to me, “Hi.” It quickly came out of my mouth. “Hey, Casper.” The guys walked towards Trevor and they shook hands. I saw his name on the back of the shirt. Brooks, 8. He must be the Noah Trevor talked about. They both said something before he trailed off. Trevor then stared at me, keenly. “What?” I smiled. Suddenly, the quiet locker room began filling with voices and laughter. Bags but the floor and guys cheered. Someone shouted. “Yo, Casper!”Another player looked at me. “Oh, who do we have here?”It came to my senses that I was the only woman in their midst while some guys started to pull their hoodies, and another reached for his jersey. Heat rushed through my cheeks and I stared at Trevor shyly. “Uhh, I think I should go.” “Yeah.” He gently reached for my hands. “Come on.”I looked down at our joined hands for a second before following him. His teammates watched us leave and one yelled. “So, that's your girlfriend.”“Mind
Kehlani The moment the doors slid open, cold air greeted me. Not exactly freezing but the air was crisp and everything smelled fresh and clean. The floors were polished and they gleamed beneath the bright lights.“Whoa.” I stared at the enormous photographs that lined the wall of players celebrating the championship with historic goals and I whispered. “This is amazing. I'm glad my project is about hockey.”“You've never seen inside a professional arena before?” I laughed. “Not like the one we had in high school.”“Yeah. That one sucks.” We continued walking down and some guys passed us, staring at me somehow. They don't pass without greeting him. He seemed to be quite popular. I opened my notepad and typed: he's free with everyone, everyone knows him and he treats the staff member cool. “Trevor. Do you think I'm supposed to be here? I don't see any girl around here.”He smiled. “I may be violating the rule but who cares?” He grabbed my arms. “Hold on to me tight.” He smirked.I s
Kehlani My car was brought just exactly as Trevor promised. I checked through and everything was working accordingly. I thanked the engineer and he left. But I don't think I would drive the car to his place. Anyways he had one we could both use for mobility. So I dressed up and took a cab to his place. I got there at 1:30pm. I stopped at the gate and called his phone. Soon, he was out. A part of the gate slid open and he smiled. “Hey.”“Hi.” I responded back and walked in. He closed them and I found my way in while he followed me behind. I sat on the couch but I saw him climbing the stairs. “Kehlani, I'm in my room. You need something. Just come up.”“O-okay.” I nodded and he left. That reminds me. I haven't even been upstairs. Gosh, I needed a drink. I walked to his kitchen and grabbed a juice box and opened the cap immediately. I drank and walked back to the living room. Then I climbed the stairs, his place is just so fine. When I finally took that last step into the hallway, I
Kehlani My day just got a lot worse. I couldn't even concentrate in class. I love Trevor too much that I still wanted to talk to him. Still wanted him to give us a chance to date again. But he doesn't want that. I think he's scared, so maybe, maybe I should just do as he says. It's time to…..move
Kehlani I got back home. I didn't want to leave but I did anyway, because I couldn't force things. Definitely, Elliot must have tried to call me. But I blocked him. I got home and sat on the chair by the porch. I tried the breathing technique to calm myself down but it was working, the door opened
Kehlani For a while, everything paused. I just stared at the message that popped up.(Congratulations, Kehlani Cole. You won the Golden lensArt scholarship program…..)The words blurred and I opened it with shaking hands.(We are pleased to inform you, full tuition coverage, mentorship with top in
Kehlani I kept on thinking wildly, imagining the worse that could happen. What would they say happened to him? Who last visited him? I'm going to jail. I cried inwardly. Dad had gone upstairs and came back down in casual wear. Today was also a day of rest since he just came back from travel. He we
