VIOLET’S POV
Last summer. The summer than I have been happiest than the way I have been since I was born. The summer that I met Noah and my life has never been the same without him.
I left Malibu last evening because the schools were re-opening, and well, I had to study.
It was a tough moment leaving Noah. He had given me so much to remember and now that I was going to leave me made me cry.
He was there to hold me as I cried in his arms.
He also had to look for work, now that he had graduated from collage sometime back. That explains why he couldn’t just give up his future for me. Neither could I, no matter what, I know studies comes first. Yea.
He kept calling me quite often and that did not make me feel that lonely. At least I have someone who truly loves me and cares from me. I have been bullied all my life and please don’t think that I am taking this too far.
Noah is a special guy in my life and trust you me, after I am done with school, I will make our relationship happen. He is a gem that deserves to be kept. Don’t think that I am the one forcing issues here, he also wants the same thing with me. He urged me to work hard at school and make it to collage and from there, we can take care of our children who would come later on in life after he marries me.
My aunty and my cousin are the ones who took me to the airport. I fell asleep throughout the entire flight. I was lucky I did because in my dream that come with the sleep, I dreamt about Noah.
Finny as it may seem, but Noah come to be with me and we finally had a happily ever after.
After I landed, my mother was there, waiting for me. I was happy to see her after not seeing her throughout the entire summer. She is my number one love and I can’t explain how I truly love her so much.
She asked me about my stay at my auntie’s place and I told her all the tiny details leaving the fact that I met a guy. I didn’t want her to overreact. No, she is a cool mum. Let me just say this, I will tell her about meeting a boy later on, not now.
I kind of come when we were almost opening and that means that I had a day to relax before I can go back in school to start my senior year in High School. Finally, I was going to leave this hell of a high school and I will be happy again. f**k them all, f**k all the bullies who thought that I would be miserable all my life.
Out of this high school walls, I will make it. I will not be bullied again. Noah had told me to be more of myself but I don’t know if I can do it.
I know that I have to stand for myself but I really don’t know if I can do it or I will just relapse back to being that bullied girl in a hoodie and also baggy jeans.
The evening before school, I went with my mum for grocery shopping and also to buy stationery for school. All was well until I saw Titus. The guy who gathered his happiness by bullying me.
I expected him to ignore the fact that he had seen me but he didn’t. Instead, he gave me a killing gesture telling me that he is going to murder me on of this days in our High School Hallway.
My mum didn’t notice this yet but she did later on when she noticed that I was not taking as much as I was well before Titus killed my moods immediately.
“Are you okay, you seem off,” She was always concerned about me. That is right, a mothers love.
“I am okay mum, I am just feeling a slight headache,” I lied to her. I hate doing this to her but it is for her own good. The last thing I want is for her to keep worrying about me.
“Sorry baby,” She placed the back of her palm on my forehead to feel my temperature.
I followed her to the pharmacy where we bought some meds before we went back home. I hel0ed her prepare dinner for the two of us. After eating together and taking my meds, I went back to my room.
I closed my door tightly before pulling out my computer. I wanted to have a video call with Noah and the last thing I wanted was my mother knowing about us right now. It is too early for that.
“Hi baby” Seeing him alone made me smile. He was the man who brought all this happiness in my life.
“Hi love, I have missed you,” I told him this pushing my tears back. Thinking that he will not be around as I step in that hell of a place tomorrow made me feel bad.
“I miss you too Vee,” That was the nickname that he had given me.
“How was the job hunting process for you,” He had initially told me that he is going to apply for work at different schools in Malibu.
“I gave them my resume, I am just waiting for them to call me in case they would wish to hire me. I have crossed my fingers, please pray for me,” He mumbled.
“I will dear.” I gave him a yellow smile.
“Okay, let us talk about you, are you going to do what we decided on tomorrow when you go to school?” He asked me and I was lost of words.
How was I going to tell him that if I wore heels and wore a skirt they will shame me? They will even fight me and push me to the ground and that will be embarrassing. I hate that Titus guy and the rest of the students at Liberty High for making my life a living hell.
“Vee,” He called me when he realized that I had not answered his question.
“I will stick to the plan, “I lied or maybe I will just do that after all. I mean, if I die, I die.
“I am proud of you baby, I will call you tomorrow to find out how things were. Trust me, nothing will happen to you, okay?” I wish it seemed easy as he said it.
“I hope so too,” This was actually my prayer.
“Goodnight baby, I love you Vee. Dream of me,” He said this to me.
“Goodnight too love, I will definitely dream about you,” I replied before hanging up.
Wow, that was intense. Am I really able to do this? I asked myself as I looked at my wardrobe which was filled with hoodies and baggy jeans.
I had to check somewhere else. I removed my dusty suitcase and there is where my real; cloths were.
Taking out a stripped crop top and a small leather skirt that would only cover my thighs up to my mid-thigh, I was good to go.
I had an ankle boot and that would complete the look.
I hope I was not planning on attracting bullies to my space by dressing like this. I hope things will go well as Noah had promised.
