COLLEGE DIARIES
EPISODE:11
...That day I walked home alone as I waited for Ethan for five more minutes and when he was nowhere in sight, I decided to go home, besides I had a class to attend that day. I returned home and Lucy was as usual baking. Many of my friends in high school used to ask me about Lucy never going to school or something and I would just reply by saying, 'Oh! She's home schooled' and before any of them began to ask why I would just change the topic. The truth was Lucy had 'Agoraphobia'.It came out when she always rejected to go out of the house even when grandma forced her to. So now, she was on therapy for it.
Anyways, when I returned home she said,
"Hey, Daisy! How was your day?"
"Cool.Thanks for asking.", I said and hurried up to my room. I freshened up, ate lunch, and sat on my bed for a whole five minutes..figuring out how fast the days are processing...my thoughts were interrupted by a phone call. My heart sank as it was an unknown number but still there was that curiosity. I picked it up and said, "Hello?''.Thankfully and gratefully, it was none other than Ethan.
"Yes Ethan...", I said.
"Hey,!Sorry for today, I couldn't come...you can blame Mr.David for that. But still...I am very sorry.", he said.
"Yes of course you should be.", I said and smiled. I saw the clock on my pink wall...it was four o'clock...I was already late!
"Okay bye, Ethan! I am already late!", I said and hurried off to the 'Marx Audit' where I taught martial arts.
****************
I returned home at five forty-five and I was so tired that day that I finished eating dinner till seven and slept at eight. I woke up at eight the next morning...but I decided to stay in the bed for some more time as it was a Saturday morning which meant-holiday for college. I was reading a book called 'The Puppets' and I was in a completely different world. There was a bell at the door...I wondered for one second who it was because...
1.No one ever came to our house so early in the morning and
2.I was already being stalked.
I heard Lucy calling me from downstairs.
"Daisy! It's someone for you, come down!", she said.
"Who is it?", I asked.
"Well, just come down."
I looked at myself in the mirror fixed just beside my bed...I looked shabby! I was in my silk blue night suit and my blonde hair looked very crazy. Very very crazy. So, I quickly brushed them so that they look somewhat better.
"Daisy!", I heard my name again.
"Coming Lucy!Wait!", I shouted back and hurried downstairs. I walked up to the door, I was shocked! It was Ethan!
"Hey! Good Morning!", he said, his voice sounding bright as always.
I smiled at him and said, "Good Morning. What makes you visit me?"
"Well..", he said and showed the blank side of the placard he was holding behind. I gave him a confused look.
"Guess what?", he said, his voice still very bright.
"What?", I said. I was so shocked and stunned at the same time when he turned the card around. It said, "WILL YOU COME TO THE DANCE WITH ME?" in block letters. I looked at the placard and then at his deep brown eyes...
"So, will you come with me?", he asked with a warm smile.
"Yes!How sweet this was Ethan!"
"And to make things sweeter..." he removed dairy milk from his pocket and said, "Here!".
I laughed and said, "Thank you for everything! You made my day."I literally just felt like hugging him when he did all these things just for me! (But of course, I didn't)
"K Daisy...Gotta go to college on a holiday also...before you ask why..? Well, Mr.David.", he said.
I laughed and said, "Yeah! Mr. David".He walked up to a green sports motorbike which was parked right outside my house. I called out,
"You can ride that?"
He sat on it, put on the helmet, looked right at me, and said,
"Wanna have a ride?"
I looked at myself and laughed, "In a night suit? Next time sure!"
"Okay!Bye!", he said and waved off.
