NOVEMBER’S MANSION
“Where are you coming from badass?” Monique asked as she came in.
“The grocery store” she replied, falling on the couch.
“With who?” Dahlia asked.
“Ricardo” November smiled
“Thought you both are enemies” Monique said.
“We were, but we made up, he’s actually cool and I’ve never had such fun for a long time!” November smiled.
“Tommorow is the working out parade” Dahlia said.
“Oh it’ll be Sunday tommorow” November said.
“What are you gonna be wearing?” Monique asked.
“What do girls work out with?, Thighs and singlets” November replied.
“You’re gonna ki|| them all again, I can’t wait” Dahlia said and November grinned.
“Heard Barron is still at the hospital” Monique said
“Wasn’t expecting less, I beat him real bad” November replied.
The doorbell rang and Dahlia went to get it.
She opened the door and Ixora came to view with Eve.
“Girls!” Dahlia smiled .
“Is my role model in?” Ixora asked.
“Of course” Dahlia ushered them in and shut the door.
“Role model!” Ixora gushed, hugging November.
“You’re not hurt from last night’s fight are you?” November asked.
“No, thanks to you, and I’m not an easy target either” Ixora smiled.
“Hi Eve!” Monique waved.
“I really wanna be a good ballerina dancer like you” Eve said and Monique smiled.
“I don’t dance as good as November, I and November learned ballerina for a year, same academy” Monique replied.
“Really?, Role model can dance ballerina too?” Ixora said surprisingly.
“Well….yes but please don’t tell me to dance, I’m really not in the mood to dance right now” November replied.
“By the way thanks for teaching Wendy and Binta a lesson, and I heard Bora fainted” Eve laughed.
“The hotness made me jealous trust me” Ixora winked.
“I wish I had your hips” Eve said.
“I wish I had your @zz” Ixora said.
“Aww, I’m flattered” November smiled and they all laughed.
“It’s Saturday night, what are you guys planning?” Monique asked.
“Should we go to the cinema?” Dahlia asked.
“We mustn’t always go have fun, let’s read too” November replied.
“True, let’s visit the library tonight” Monique said.
“We’ll go get our books, let’s meet at the library” Ixora said and left with Eve.
November’s phone beeped, it’s a new message.
*CAN WE MEET AT THE FLOWER GARDEN NOW?, PLEASE*
She wondered who it was so she texted a question.
*WHO ARE YOU?*
Almost immediately, the reply came.
*CISCO*
She sighed and wondered what’s wrong with him.
“Going somewhere?” Dahlia asked.
“Yes, I’ll be right back” she replied and left the house.
She had barely walked for three minutes when he saw three guys kneeling in front of the gymnastics hall.
She wondered why but she later thought they’re getting bullied so she started walking to the hall but Newton suddenly came out of the hall with another guy.
The guy’s face was bloody and swelled up.
Newton faced the kneeling three.
“Why beat up a fellow student like this?” He asked .
“He called me a bastard!” The first one said.
“He said I’m a monkey” the second one said.
“He said I’m a fool” the third one said.
“You all beat me up for no reason, that’s why I called you names, I didn’t intentionally do it!” The bullied guy replied.
“So….you all beat him up without a reason?, You think that’s normal?” Newton faced the three bullies.
“He’s a LC student, we just craved to beat someone, that’s why we got him” one of them said .
“They craved to beat someone?” November said, feeling like pouring urine in the mouth of that particular guy
“Really?, So as the president of this college, I can beat you guys too if I crave to beat someone” Newton said and they all went quiet.
“You all are rusticated” he said and November’s eyes widened.
She wasn’t expecting that.
“President !” The bullies shouted shockingly.
“Are your ears not working well?, Y’all are rusticated from my college, first thing tomorrow morning, pack your things and leave the school” Newton said.
His eyes caught their tags and he smirked.
“Middle category students?, And you all have the nerves to bully a LC student?, It’s the height of it , get out of the college tommorow, I just made myself clear” Newton said .
“Leave my sight” he said and the three stood before walking away regretfully.
He faced the bullied guy.
“I love you president” he said.
“Go get yourself treated at the clinic, I’ll give them a call before you get there” Newton said and the guy bowed respectfully before leaving.
Newton sighed and turned to leave but he met November.
She’s smiling widely at him.
“November?” He said surprisingly.
“You looked hot when you were ordering earlier” she said, walking to him.
“Really?” He smiled, walking to her too.
“Yes, I wish you’ll be like this always” she replied when she finally got to him.
“I wish too” he said.
“Newton marry me!” She said cutely and he laughed.
“That sounded like a message from K-pop fans to their idols” he said.
“I’ll get you a girl soon, not someone like Bora though” she winked.
“I don’t want any other girl” he replied.
“Really?, Well cool but please continue behaving this way, it fits you perfectly” She said.
” Where are you going?”
“Secret” she replied and poked his cheek.
“Bunny!” She winked and rushed away.
Newton smiled, touching his cheek.
“How adorable” he chuckled.

FLOWER GARDEN
It didn’t take long before November found Francisco.
He was walking around, checking out the flowers when she found him.
He just plucked a dandelion when she got to her.
“Hey” she said and he stood, attaching the flower to her hair.
“Gawd!, I h@ťě flowers!” She said and he smiled.
“I wasn’t expecting a tomboy to love it” he said.
“It makes me look like an old grandma, right?” She said, looking at herself in her phone screen.
“No you look more beautiful” he replied.
“So why did you call me here?” She asked, brushing back her hair.
“I needed someone to talk to” he said and she faced him.
“Is something wrong?”
“No, let’s just say I wanted to spend some time with you” he replied.
“Why?” She asked curiously.
“I don’t know, I felt suffocated at the suite” he replied.
She sighed and continued looking around.
“What do you like?” He suddenly asked.
“What aspect?”
“Everything”
“I love The Fray songs, skating, strawberries, fights, ballerina dance, learning new things”
“I would never have guessed” he replied and she laughed.
“I know”
She sighted a butterfly and smiled.
“I love butterflies too” she said and went after it quickly.
Francisco stood and watched as she chased after it, admiring just everything about her.
Since she arrived, confusion has been his best friend because his heart started wanting him to choose between Keaton and her.
Keaton is the first girl he has ever had a crush on but this thing he has for November is just crazy too.
He craves for her attention and always wants to be with her than required.
As he watched her chase the butterfly around in the illuminated garden, he started going after her.
His fast steps finally took him to her and Just when she was about to get the butterfly, he held her and she faced him swiftly.
“Francisco….
He came for her lips instantly and her eyes widened.
A part of her wanted to close her eyes but another part remembered Monique and Keaton.
She stepped back and Francisco let go of her, coming back to his senses.
“I’m sorry November” he quickly said.
She rushed out of the garden.
