EPISODE 3
Tracey dragged me to the cafeteria and we both ordered our lunch and went to sit down at corner.. Actually a table far away from other table.
âso what were you saying, you like James?â she asked.
âyesâ I replied sternly.
âbut I thought you said love was just a word that carries a lot of magical words but doesnât mean anythingâ
âyeah, I said that, I like James, I donât love him, loving someone is different that liking someone how dumb are you to know thatâ I rolled my eyes.
âplease refrain from insulting meâ Tracey said and I sighed and turned to my food.
âlook Sam, what Iâm saying is, If you like someone, you have to be nice around them, you need to act gentle and Charming so that person can see how beautiful you can be with all your good features and then fall in love with youâ Tracey explained and I looked at her.
âreally?â I asked. She is kind of right. And I havenât like anyone before and I want him to like me back.
âyeahâ she smiled.
âand you canât like Jamesâ Tracey said.
âwhy do you say so?â I asked.
âdonât you know? James is actuallyâ
âhey Trace⌠Someone interrupted Tracey and when I looked up, I saw a girl with blonde hair like mine who smiled and sat down on one of the chairs.
âhi..â Tracey said happily seeing the girl.
âhiâ the girl said to me and I raised my brows at her.
âSamantha, meet my friend Esther, Esther Lopez, the schoolâs president and Esther meet Samantha also my friendâ Tracey said and I turned to her. âweâre not friendsâ I said sternly and she laughed. And I didnât get what was funny.
âwe are trust meâ she said after the laugh but I ignored her and turned to âEstherâ ⌠So sheâs the school president,..
âhi..â I smiled at her.
âwow youâre prettyâ she said and I nod, âI know, I get that a lotâ.
âso how does it feel to be the schoolâs president?â I asked as I placed my fork down on my tray
âthatâs such a weird question to ask but, Iâll answer itâ itâs nice being the schoolâs president but itâs stressful sometimes but Iâm used to it anyway, why do you ask?â she asked
âno reason!â I lied, maybe being friends with her I can also be popular.
âwould you like to be my friend?â I asked immediately.
âuhm ..yeah sure.â she said and glanced over at Tracey.
âgreatâ I smiled.
âanyway, my friends are waiting for me over there, I just came to say hiâ Esther said standing up. âIâll see you guys later, and Samantha it was nice meeting youâ Esther said before walking away.
âsheâs so nice. isnât she?â Tracey asked as she watched her leave.
âyeah,â I said.
âthatâs why she was made the schoolâs president, cause sheâs so nice and smart, but niceness comes first thatâs why she was voted as the schoolâs presidentâ Tracey explained.
âreally?â I beckoned and she nods.
Wait. Iâm smart, Iâm nice.. I can totally be the schoolâs president.
âso letâs talk about James, why so interested in James?â Tracey asked and I sighed.
âwell normally, at my old school theyâre many cute guys youâd totally want to hit yourself on but James, James just caught my attention. I donât know what he has that I suddenly became interested inâ I said truthfully, I donât know why James just attracted me, heâs too beautiful to be a boy.
âokay, you like James and you want to go out with James, well try being a little nice to himâ.
âI am nice, how much nicer do you want me to getâ. I scoffed.
âso much nicer that James will think being nice is creepy, and also you have to be nice to Kaden cause James and Kaden are close and if youâre being rude to Kaden, heâs just going to feed James pretty bad things about youâ Tracey explained slowly chewing her food.
âI think you just want me to be nice to be Kaden because you like himâ I primped.
âno Iâm serious, you have to be nice to him⌠Oh speak of the devilâ Tracey said and looked behind me, which made me turn, to see James and his friends entering the cafeteria, Kaden hands crossing James shoulder and both of them laughing together and heavens, James looked beautiful, and I couldnât help but smiled as I watch him laugh, what I liked most was the way his eyes shimmered.
Kaden and James noticed I and Traceyâs stare and glanced at us. Tracey quickly looked away and I rolled my eyes at her and kept on staring at James who shyly looked away pretending he didnât see me.
I stood up wanting to go meet him when Tracey pulled me back.
âwhat are you doing?â she asked.
âIâm going to meet Jamesâ I tell her.
âno youâre not, if you donât want James to hate you sit your butt down and let him beâ Tracey said and I sat down.
âHave you dated anyone before?â she asked as I sat down.
ânopeâ I replied.
âno wonder youâre being like this, you have to be free around the people you like, donât make them see you like a burden and just flirt with them charmingly when youâre around themâ Tracey explained and I chuckled. âyeah right, like youâve dated anyone beforeâ I said sarcastically and he grabbed my hand and pointed to the table James and his friends were seated.
âsee those guys there, the one with brown hair, the one beside Kaden. Heâs name Jerold and heâs my ex..ex boyfriend. So yes Iâve dated someone beforeâ Tracey said proudly and I slipped my hand from her grip.
âwhat made you two break upâ I asked.
âhe said i was too clingy and that I was a burden, and that was it, he broke up with me!â Tracey explained and I gasped.
âwhat? What a rude boy, how could he do such a thingâ I exclaimed. âtell me about itâ Tracey rolled her eyes.
âIâm going over there to give him a piece of my mindâ I said standing up but Tracey pulled me down.. âyou donât even know him why would you give him a piece of your mindâ Tracey said.
âit doesnât matter if I know him or notâ
âlook just leave Jerold out of this, what Iâm saying is you shouldnât be too clingy with James or youâll be hatedâ Tracey said and immediately we heard the bell.
Everyone went back to class, and we did four more subjects before school was over. Immediately Tracey came over to meet me.
âso.. Getting ready for drama class?â she asked as I shoved my books in my backpack.
âdrama what?â I asked and primped my hair back.
âdrama class! Donât you remember itâs among the schoolâs three main after school activity?â Tracey said and I breathed out an âohâ remembering when the principal mentioned it.
âwell since you mentioned it, we Better start going, early birds take the morning breadsâ I quoted and Tracey laughed.
âwhere the hell did you learn that, it doesnât make senseâ Tracey said still laughing and I joined her. âI just made it upâ I laughed.
Itâs odd laughing with someone other than Naomi, but still feels great.
We were the first to get to drama class and I met with the drama teacher whoâs almost in his 50âs I didnât have to introduce myself to him cause the principal already talked to him about me.
The people attending drama class were so many, but amongst the full crowd I could still see James. The drama teacher taught so much about drama the prose and other stuff and after that we were dismissed and all went home.

I sat down on my bed and placed my laptop on my th-gh. Streaming the novels to read, but just then my room door opened and Naomi Walked with her curly black hair swaying around her face as she walked happily to my bed.
âhi Sam. I came here as soon as I heard youâre from schoolâ she said and sat down on my bed opposite me and I closed my laptop and smiled at her.
âwhat? Was school that fun today?â naomi asked and I moved closer to her.
âit was fantastic. I made a new friendâ.
âreally?â
âyeah.â
âmale or female?â Naomi asked.
âfemale duh!â I rolled m eyes
âwhatâs her name?â
âTraceyâ I replied
âwow she must be real nice and understanding to be your friendâ Naomi said and I tilt my head and looked at her.
âare you saying I canât make friends easily or Iâm impudent and hĂŚrd to understandâ I asked moving closer to her and she sacredly moved back.
âno.. I-i-i.. Just mean that youâre so pretty and nice and not anyone can fit to that standard to be your friendâ she said and I smiled and moved back my hair. Sheâs right.
âbut naomi.. I called and she looked at me.
âwhat was more captivating for me in school today was that I have be threatened with a lover?â I said and placed my hand on my chest dramatically.
âA lover? Wait. Like you, Samantha kress, youâre crushing on someone?â Naomi asked and I nod.
âa girl or a boy?â she asked.
âwhat the hell do you mean a girl or a boy, a boy of course.â I replied.
âwell, cause you never liked any boy all your life and Iâve been thinking maybe you were destined to fall for girls instead of guys but I guess my instincts was wrong, but still whatâs heâs name? Is he cute? Handsome? Dreamy? Chaâ
âNaomi, one question at a time okayâ I laughed.
âIâm sorry, youâre the one with a new school and a new crush and Iâm the one getting happyâ she squeaked.
âanyway he happened to be in my class, his name is James and heâs not only dreaming or charming, heâs cute and has this feminine beauty, dong get me wrong but for a boy to have such a feminine beauty mean his handsomeness is spectacularâ I said remembering James face and Naomi laughed.
âI never believed youâd like a boy, the almighty Samanthaâ naomi laughed and I primped.
âIâm human tooâ I said and she nods âyep, youâre right, but does he like, flirt With you or show any sign that heâs crushing on you too or youâre just secretly crushing on himâ Naomi asked .
She asks annoying but true questions sometimes
âhe.. h-he.. Likes me too, and whenever he talks to me I just play hĂŚrd to get even though I like him, he was even on his knees today saying he wished to date me cause Iâm too pretty and I couldnât help but like him the moreâ I explained and Naomi grinned.
âwow.. You are indeed an eye catch for boysâ .
We both talked about James for a while, and Naomi wished she could see him while I told Naomi more about James.
