55、Mike surprised visit
“Sleep head. How can you sleep in broad day light after drinking bear.?” Sandra asked in the most surprised force she could muster.
“Yeah. I guess I passed out a little bit..” Jennifer said as she yawned. “You look nervous. Is there anything?”
“No, not at all.” Sandra replied.
“Are you sure.” Jennifer asked, smiling and looking at them. James was about to say something and a faint knock landed on the door.
“Are you expecting anyone?” Sandra asked Jennifer.
“It must be Ruth.” Jennifer replied. “Can you go and check?”
Sandra stood up and headed to the door.
Jennifer watched Sandra as she walked to the door and swung her head to her brother, “Did anything happened?”
“Are you suspecting anything?” James asked.
“I think I heard something.” Jennifer said and smiled at him.
“Maybe the television.” James said.
“I’m not a kid. You have a room.” Jennifer said and James smiled and returned his attention to the television.
Just then Sandra returned and smiled at Jennifer. “You didn’t tell me he’s coming. He’s waiting for you outside.”
“He? Who is that? I wasn’t expecting any he” Jennifer said in confusion.
“Don’t keep him waaaiting.” Sandra sang and sank down the couch. Jennifer stood and headed to the door. She was shocked when she opened the door and saw who was standing.
“Happy birthday.” Mike said, standing with the bags of gift. Jennifer didn’t know how she felt at that moment. She was surprised and felt lovely as she saw Mike, standing with birthday gifts.
She was forced to hug him excitedly and say thank you but she remembered all the things he did to her and decided to pay back.This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
“Sorry sir, but who told you that today is my birthday.” Jennifer asked.
“I will prefer if you can call me by my name. We are not in school.” Mike replied.
“Mr. Mike, how did you know that today is my birthday?” Jennifer repeated.
“I happened to find it somewhere and I thought it will be nice to surprise you with some gifts.”
“Gift for me? Why?” Sandra had walked closer that she was hearing what they were saying.
“You are a good student. My best student. Good student always have rewards.” Mike replied.
“But this is personal and not school.” Jennifer said.
“Anyone you call it, I just came to wish you happy birthday.” Mike replied.
“I’m sorry but I can’t take it from you. You are not my boyfriend and don’t act as if you are a potential one. Take this gift. I don’t need it.” Jennifer said and Sandra was shocked from where she was hiding. Mike did not expect that from her. He thought she would be excited to see him and happy about the things he bought.
“I can’t take it back home. I bought it for you.”
“And I said I don’t need it. I’m sure you have other girlfriends who will be very happy to collect it. You can go and give it to one.” Jennifer said but deep down inside her, She was very happy. She felt like kissing and hugging him tightly, but she need to control her feelings and prove to Mike that she’s not loose to him.
“Please don’t ruin my day. Just collect it from me.” Mike said and stretched it to her.
“Ruin your day when you have ruined mine twice.” Jennifer said in her mind.
“You can’t force someone to take gift from you. Take it back home.” Jennifer insists.
“You can give it to someone else if you don’t need it.” Mike said and made his way out of her house.
“Come and take this trash out of here!” Jennifer yelled at him but he didn’t look back. He got to his car and drove off disappointed. Just then, Sandra came out of nowhere.
“Jennifer! What the fuck is wrong with you? Why did you reject the gift.” Sandra asked Jennifer and picked up the bag.
“What are you trying to do?” She forcefully took the bag from her. “Who told you I don’t want it?”
“I heard everything.”
“And so? You want to take my birthday gift?” Jennifer asked.
“You said you don’t need it. Now you are talking it away from me.
“So if I leave the gift for you, you will take it?” Jennifer asked.
“You told him you don’t want it. Wait… So you were pretending all these while. Why did you do that?”
“I’m paying him back for hurting my feelings. I know he’s hurt and I’m happy.” Jennifer took the bag inside and headed to her room. She doesn’t want anyone to see what he bought for her.
