HIS BADDIE NERD - Episode 15 & 16
{GIRLFRIEND?}
~LAVENDER MANSION~
Twinkle watched as Ciara moved closer to him in shock, he obviously was not expecting that from her.
“Why are you doing this?” He questioned with a deep frown on his face, his countenance clearly showed that he was not pleased with her actions.
“I just want to feel your touch, I want your hand on me, I want you to work wonders….
She paused bitting her bottom lips as she noticed the state Twinkle was giving to her, like she is someone who just descended from the moon, like she had grown ten heads.
“You have a boyfriend so you should stop this madness, Ara “He snapped pushing her away from him
“But I want you” She pressed on
Twinkle stood up from the bed heading for the door, he had almost twisted the door knob but what she said next made him stop right on his track.
“You still call me Ara, do you still have feeling for me?” She inquired. Twinkle didn’t bother to reply her, he just gave her one hard stare before leaving the room finally
******
~LIVING ROOM~
Vince looked up from the video game he was playing as he heard footsteps, his gaze landed on Twinkle. He was surprised to see him heading for the door
“And where are you going to this late?” He asked but got no reply, not like he was expecting a reply.
He sighed deeply turning back to what he was doing but he couldn’t concentrate anymore. His mind drifted back to when himself and Twinkle were still very close but everything changed three years ago, that was also when Twinkle started fooling around with ladies.
His thoughts were disrupted Ciara alighted the spiral staircase. Her eyes widened on seeing him, shock was evident in her face
“I thought you would be in your room” She stated nervously
“And I thought you left already, why are you still here?” He retorted standing up from the couch.
“I got lost trying to find my way from your room but luckily, I am here. Can you give me a ride home?” She replied
Vince tilted his head in a way that showed that he was not satisfied with the explanation she gave.
“Babe?” She called when she was not getting any reply from Vince
“Huh? Yeah…. sure” He said

~GRACIE ORPHANAGE~
Miss Gracie sucked on her breathe as she heard a knock on the door, even without being told, she already knew who it was. The door opened and it was just like she expected; Rose and Nuella.
“Miss Gracie, you were joking earlier right?” Nuella began
“Was there a smile on my face when I said that?” Miss Gracie retorted
“But… she did nothing wrong to you, nothing I can think of. Why are you pushing her out? And this late?” Nuella questioned
“It I My orphanage and I decide who I kick out and who stays. Your time is counting, Rose” Miss Gracie said in a cold voice
Rose went down on her out knees, tears were gathering in her eye already.
“Miss Gracie, I… if I have ever offended you, just please forgive me but please don’t do this to me. I don’t know anyone I can turn to at this point, i have nowhere to go” Rose pleaded with her both hands clasped together
“Three minutes more!” Miss Gracie said instead checking her wristwatch.
The tears were rolling down her eyes already as she raised her head to look at Nuella who was still stunned by the whole thing. Nuella helped her up and they both left Miss Gracie’s office.
Miss Gracie sighed deeply throwingvhwr head backwards in a way that showed dejection, she palmed her face with her hand.
“What am I doing? Is this the right thing to do?” She asked herself
“I’ll n the bad person for once, it’s just for your own safety, Rose” She added
******
Rose dilated her eyes in shock she watched Nuella pack her bags. She was just shoving any of her clothes she could come across into a suitcase.
“What are you doing?”
“I am leaving with you, do you think I’ll be that crazy to let you go on your own? And at the time?” Nuella replied
“But she only sent me out and not you” Rose mumbled with a slight shrug
“And we’re stuck together hun, it’s better we spend the night in the bridge than I should let you go alone ”
“But I’ll be fine, you don’t have to risk it for me” Rose said
“Just stop saying you ‘re fine when you are not!” Nuella snapped
“I’ll just pass the night at a friend’s place, I’m sure that she will let me in” Rose said taking her bottom lips in, she just lied, again!
“Are you sure?”
“She is really a nice person and I’m sure if I explain my predicament to her, I’ll get a roof over my head” Rose said with a smile getting her suitcase
“My time here is up” She added
“Just hang in there oaky? I’ll make sure to change Miss Gracie’s mind” Nuella said confidently.

~BUS STATION~
Rose kept on looking around the bus station despite the fact that there were street lights around and the place was lit up, she was still scared. She could feel her heart slamming against her rib cage.
The cold breeze swept pass her causing goose bumps on her skin. She hugged her knee tightly trying to hold back her tears. She felt like the whole world is against her? There is no succor anywhere, she was feeling alone with no one to turn to, no place to go.
The weather went really hard on her as the the cloud became really dark, and then thunder struck making her flinch. She looked up to the sky and it appears as if the rain will fall anytime soon.
Just then, someone rushed to the bus station and also say on the bench. Rose adjusted to the extreme feeling uncomfortable already, she is not used to being with strangers.
The lightening came again and rumbling thunder accompanied it. Rose let out a shrill scream jerking off the seat and she landed on her butt.
Twinkle turned to her with a raised eyebrow, the lightening that came next shone on her and it made it possible to him to see her face.
“Rose?” He called out
“Twinkle?” She answered standing up from the floor and she sat on the bench again. The cold was eating deep in her and soon, her whole body was trembling and her teeth were clenching together.
Twinkle removed his jacket and wrapped it around her. She muttered a thanks. The thunder came again and this time it was louder. Rose shifted closer to Twinkle holding him really tight
“I’m so scared” She whimpered
“You don’t have to be okay?” He reassured her, wrapping his hand around her. She snuggled closer to him buryingher face on his chest.
After a while, the cab that Twinkle had called for arrived.
“Rose” He called tapping her lightly
“Are you planning on staying here? You should go home at least, the cab can take you home” He said
“Home? I don’t think I have a home any more”She replied with a sad smile. Twinkle trailed his eyes to her suitcase and he understood the whole thing.
“Do you have anywhere you can stay for the night?” He inquired, she shook her head in negative.
“Will you spend the night at my place then?”
Rose looked at him for a while as if she is accessing him before nodding her head, not like she has a choice.
He helped her with her suitcase and they both entered the cab.

~GRACIE ORPHANAGE~
Miss Gracie rushed into the dorm and met Nuella awake looking through the window. The rain was pouring heavily
“Where is Rose? Is she still here? She has gone to bed already right?” She rushed in her words breathing heavily
“She has done as you commanded, she is out there in the rain heading to God knows where” Nuella responded almost close to tears
“We both know how she h@??s the rain, how is she going to do? What if she catches cold? Will she even survive it?” Nuella added
Her words were piercing Miss Gracie Deep down, it was sinking in.
“What have I done?” Miss Gracie wondered aloud ruffling her hair like she is about to go crazy.

~LAVENDER MANSION~
Vince sprang up from the couch as soon as the door unlocked. He hasn’t slept a wink since he got back from taking Ciara home, that was when the rain started too.
Twinkle is actually not tolerant to cold and catches flu easily.
“Where have you been? Do you know how worried I was? You should learn to pick up the d@mn phone…..
Vince paused on his words as Twinkle took a step forward that was when she saw Rose who had been hiding behind Twinkle the whole time thanks to her small statue.
“Rose? What are you doing here? Why are you here?” He diverted his questions to her
“It just happened, I followed Twinkle home” She responded forcing a smile, she was trying hard not to meet his gaze as she was feeling embarrassed already. She knew she was not looking okay coupled with the fact that she was drenched right in front of him.
“Why?” Vince pressed on further with a frown on his face.
Rose meant to reply but that was when Twinkle came with a cup of hot coffee, he gave it to her.
“Drink it to warm up, I’ll take your suitcase to the guestroom” He said butting into their conversation.
Rose took a sip from the coffee but spit it out almost immediately as it burnt her. She blew air in it for a while and drank from it.
“Are you one of his flings?” Vince blurted out causing her to choke on the coffee she was drinking. She looked up to look at Vince who had this expressionless countenance.
“You got attracted to his handsome look or his sweet words” He added
“What…..
“Why would you follow him home then? Do you follow every dude you are home?” He cuts her off
“What are you saying? What do you take me for?” She retorted with her voice quivering, her heart was bleeding. That feeling when you get accused of something you did not do, that feeling when you g it looked down on by someone you like.
“I expected better from you” He mumbled before leaving. Rose watched his retracting back view with teary eyes, the liquid again! Each step he took away from her breaks her heart.
“Why is he angry for no just cause?” She wondered bitting her bottom lips

~MAYBELL COLLEGE●NEXT MORNING~
The students were outside waiting for Twinkle to arrive as usual. The crowd of studentsmainly consisted of girls and a few boys too.
Twinkle’s car pulled up and that caused screaming from the crowd. Everyone was struggling to be at the front row just to catch a glimpse of him.
Twinkle opened and door and meant to get out of the car but he turned to Rose who just stayed still playing with her nails.
“Aren’t you getting down?” He asked
“You can go down, I’ll just stay inside here till the crowd leaves” She answered
“Is that the extent of your shyness?” He chuckled lightly
“You have to trust me okay? I’ll be right beside you when you get down” Twinkle tried reassuring her but to no avail.
He pressed a button in the car and the door opened.
🗣IT’S A GIRL!
🗣IT’S THE NERD!
🗣WHY IS SHE WITH TWINKLE?
🗣DID SHE PREHAPS SEDUCED HIM?
🗣I h@?? HER GUYS
🗣FIRST TIME SEEING A GIRL IN TWINKLE’S CAR, NOT EVEN BERYL
Beryl cleared her throat feeling uncomfortable at the whole thing. She moved to Twinkle with a smile on her face, she broke her word of not going to him first.
“Babe….
She crawled trying to hug Twinkle but he pushed her off stylishly. Beryl staggered backwards but soon maintained her balance.
“Why did you come with this thing?” She asked
“Mind your words Beryl” Twinkle warned going to Rose’s side. Rose had her head bent the whole time as she was not used to the attention she was getting at that point.
“She’s a thing obviously! I’ll just rephrase my words, she is a slüt, a ?îtçh” Beryl snapped already getting pissed that Twinkle was defending Rose.
“She is my girlfriend” Twinkle said aloud for everyone to hear.
“What!!?”
🗣SO SHOCKING!
🗣WHEN DID TWINKLE GET A GIRLFRIEND?
🗣WHEN DID THEY START DATING?
Even Rose was shocked too, her eyes bulged out in shock as she turned to look at him. Twinkle was lookinga s serious as ever.
“Let’s go sunshine” He added interlocking his hand with hers.
🗣WOAH!!!
🗣SO SWEET!
🗣THAT WAS UNEXPECTED!
Beryl stood rooted on a spot, she couldn’t do anything. She could slowly feel her oils leaving her body.
