I call the shots
Chapter 9
Lewis was in his house
when he heard the doorbell go off.
🔔🔔
“Lewis get the door”, his mother yelled.
“Sure mum”, he said, heading towards the door.
He opened the door and
saw Chantelle standing there.
“What are you doing here Chantelle?” he asked frowning.
😣😣
“Can I come in?” she said slurring her word.
“Are you drunk?”
“Mhmm😆”.she said grinning.
“Come in” he said, giving her way to come in.
“Don’t make a sound”, he said, sneaking her to his room.
“Who was that, Lewis?” His mum asked from
her room.
“Chantelle, she came to drop off something”.
“Okay”.
As they got to the
room, Chantelle dived on Lewis’ bed giggling.
😂😂
“Chantelle are you fine?”
“Yeah😁, but my mum isn’t fine😆. She’s a bastard😯
and my dad, he’s just so in love🤣 and is so blind to see that she’ll be the one
to set our home on fire”, she said giggling.
😂😂
“And my brother, he’s too busy being a good boy😣 and being
obedient to my mum like a dog, everyone in that house is messed up and they
call themselves Christians😂😂. ”, she said slurring
her words and giggling.
“You need to rest, Chantelle”.
“And you Lewis, why do you care about me so much? I cheated
on you Lewis”😁
“Chantelle, you need to sleep, we have exams tomorrow”.
“Lewis, I love you so much, but you’re just too good to
me. I want the badass Lewis I fell for”.
“You can have the bed, I’ll be on the sofa”, he said
getting up, and leaving her to talk herself to sleep.
“Lewis, I want you on the bed with me”.
😆
“Chantelle sleep”.
He went to the sofa and
laid there thinking.
He really loved
Chantelle, but what she did really broke his heart. But he felt that he
deserved it because he took her from her previous boyfriend.
He was indeed a bad-ass in the past, but he
fell hard for Chantelle and changed for her, but she doesn’t like the
change. She hurt him, but he still cared and it annoyed him.
Chantelle was finally
asleep. He covered her with his blanket and he hoped that she was going to be
fine the next morning for their final exams.
▪**********************
“Lewis, where’s she”, Amanda asked, worried.
“I don’t know when I woke up this morning, she wasn’t in my room,
I called her, but she didn’t pick”.
“Miss Hastings, please take your seat”, the
examiner said.
Amanda went to her
seat.
“It’s 9:30, you may start work”.
Amanda looked at Lewis
worried.
It was past 20 minutes
and Chantelle wasn’t there.
Lewis was really
confused and worried.
After 25 minutes,
Chantelle walked in like she owned the place.
“Young lady, can you please step out”, the examiner said.
“Why? I’m not late”.
🤷🏽♀
“I’m sorry, but it’s passed 30 minutes”.
“Please check your time correctly”, she said.
The examiner looked at
the clock.
“I’m sorry; you may take your seat”.
Chantelle smiled and
took her seat.
▪***************
After the exams, Lewis
quickly rushed out of the exam hall and Chantelle went after him.
“Lewis, wait up”, she said, catching up with him. But he ignored
her.
“Lewis, please wait”.
“What is it Chantelle?”
“I’m sorry for everything I’ve done and I shouldn’t have come
to your place yesterday and….”
“You had all of us worried. Why didn’t you pick your
calls?”
“I’m sorry, but I wasn’t in the mood and…..”
“It’s alright, I have to go”, he said, walking
away and Chantelle let him go.
She stood there for a
while and her friends approached her.
“Where were you Chantelle?” Amanda asked.
“In the library prepping for the exams”.
🙂
“You had us all worried”, Betty said.
“I’m sorry about that, but I was pretty wasted yesterday and
didn’t get the chance to revise. So, I got up early in the
morning, took some aspirin, had a cup of coffee, cleaned up and I got to school
as early as 7am”, she said smiling.
“You’re pretty determined. That’s great”, Amanda said
smiling.
“But why did you drink?” Betty asked.
“Long story, but guess who’s losing her medicine
career? Me this girl”, she said, lifting up her hand.🙋🏽
“What? what happened?” Amanda asked.
“My mum happened, but I don’t want to talk about
it, and we have to get going, exams still continue”.
“Hmm, if you say so. I’ll see you girls
later”, Amanda said waking towards her car at the car park.
“So, have you heard from Reece?” Betty asked.
“Don’t mention his name to me, please”.
“I’m sorry”, she said.
“It’s fine. I’ll see you tomorrow Betty”, Chantelle said, and
she left.
