EPISODE 41

when i turned around and saw her staring at me,
i quickly grabbed my towel and tied it on my waist and ran inside my room.
Chai! I don die,which face will i use to stand before her again???
Who even told me to open the bathroom door??
What will she be thinking naw???
But wait, why was she staring at me??
Many thought were running through my mind for that moment.
She called me and i worn my cloth sharply and
rushed to her room door.
She told me to come in and i entered
while my
heart was beating so fast.
She continue looking at me,
she was staring at me for more than
3mins and i was like, God what have i done to myself??
I wish that Moment,
that the ground will open and swallow me. ***
