What the fuck Is going on in her mind?!
First she accuses me of something I know nothing about then invites me over to apologise but instead throws another weird girl in my face.
I gathered the courage to tell her how I felt and she made me and my feelings look stupid.
I'm done with girls forever! Are they all crazy like Riona?
Then why are you low key standing in the spot she left you? You're waiting for her to come back.
"No." I voiced out.
I'm leaving! Even if she tries to speak to me I will ignore her before I go crazy as well.
With a sigh I walked to the spot where my car was parked and drove home still feeling confused over the encounters with Riona.
"Leon," Leah called me as I parked my car and saw her coming out of her black Mercedes Benz. "Are you okay?" She questioned when she walked up close to me.
"Your gender drives me crazy!" I blurted out in frustration and stormed into the house.
I spotted my mom instantly as she was the only living thing in the room filled with expensive furniture and art pieces. She was seated on the white smooth arm chair while a magazine was in her hand.
"Hey Mom," I greeted as I walked towards her direction to kiss her cheek.
"Hey Leon! How was school?" She asked with a smile.
" Don't want to talk about it." I let out a sigh and took the seat next to her.
" Carter!" She yelled into the air and our Butler jogged into the living room. "Can you get Leon a cold glass of water?" She continued.
"Right away ma'am. Welcome back home Leon." Carter greeted before walking towards the kitchen.
" What happened? I told you to express how you felt to your crush, don't tell me it didn't work." Her expression showed concern.
" Your water sir and a cup of Jasmine tea for the ma'am." Carter placed both on the tray.
" Thank you Carter." My mom and I said simultaneously and chuckled afterwards.
"It didn't," I shook my head. "I think she hates me now." I completed.
My mom took a long sip of her tea before placing the delicate cup on the tray.
"Why would she hate you?" My mom eyes showed concern.
" Were you able to do me the favor I asked for a while back?"
"Well-"
"Mom!" Leah called as soon as she entered the living room.
" Hey sweetie!" Mom answered back with a warm smile.
"Leon yelled at me." Leah reported when she saw me seating with her.
"Snitch." I eyed her but she only stuck out her tongue.
" Leon!" My mom narrowed her black eyes at me. " Why would you yell at your little sister?" She asked.
" She's exaggerating," I defended myself. " I didn't yell, I only said something with a higher pitched voice than usually." I completed.
" I only asked how he was and next thing he yells is 'your gender drives me crazy'" She reported.
Screw your perfect memory.
" So my gender drives you then?" My mom chuckled.
"Not you mom, you're perfect." I held her hand. "People like Leah drives me crazy." I pointed.
" I'm assuming you finally found yourself a girlfriend? Finally Kara can leave me the fuck alone." Leah let out a sigh of relief.
" Language miss." My mom scolded.
" Sorry." She apologized immediately.
"Has Kara been bothering you at school?" I curiously asked.
"She has been coming to my class, buying me lunch and taking me out shopping all so I could put in a good word to you."
" But you never mentioned Kara till date."
" Oh yeah, it's not like I didn't want to, I just forgot but hey it still turned out good, I mean you're dating her now."
" Yeah right." I chuckled. " No sweet little sister, I'm not dating Kara or anyone else at the moment." I explained.
" Well I guess more Kara then."
" No, I'll tell to stop bothering you." I assured her.
" Mom do you know your son's so cute that even the most popular girl in his year results to bribing his younger sister?"
" Of course, he has my genes after all." My mom pulled my cheek.
So you both should go take a bath and then come down for dinner.
"I'll go up then." Leah excused herself before making her way upstairs.
"Mom did you do that special favor I asked?" I asked her.
"Yes, I went to the hospital today and everything is sorted now."
" Thank you so much Mom." I kissed her cheek again while feeling excited.
I'm glad that's sorted out now.
"Now go take a bath! Now my tea is cold thanks to you and your sister." My mom complained.
" You should blame Leah, she loves talking."
"Like you don't as well."

My day was as boring as usual, Keith didn't come to school today so it was extra boring but I was a little bit glad, at least I wouldn't have to watch Riona and him play fight in the cafeteria today.
As I dropped my tray on the aluminum table, a figure approached me. I lifted my eyes to see Riona taking a seat next to me.
"Can I talk to you?" She whispered loud enough for only me to hear.
"No. I'm busy." I took my tray and left only her on the table.
I felt hurt doing that but she hurt me more the past few days.
After lunch was Spanish class which I also had with Riona but I sat at the back but then Kara took the seat on my left and flashed a smile at me but I turned the other way.
About a few seconds later, Riona walked into the class and our eyes met for a brief second but she looked down again.
I faced my desk and let out a sigh.
"Are you alright Leo?" Kara questioned and I nodded.
"Is this seat taken?" A small voice questioned and I looked up to see Riona hanging her bag on her back.
I didn't answer but she settled on the seat on my right and smiled at me for a brief second.
Could she be bipolar? Why's she doing this to me? I'm trying to forget you and you're not helping.
I can't concentrate on Spanish this way! I took my bag and got up to my feet.
As if on cue Mr Enrique walked into the class and I had to stay in my previous seat.
"Leonardo can we-"
"No." I interrupted her without turning to face her.
Try one more time Riona, please try one more time.
