Jake's POV
I entered the lecture room all eyes set on me the guys eyes showed jealously while the ladies eyes showed lust. There was no seat left except one beside a young lady I walked up to her and was surprised she didn't even notice my presence. Hi! Finally she slowly raises up her head and looks up at me I was expecting that lustful look but all I saw in her eyes was worry and pain. I sat by her and was about to start a conversation when the lecturer walked in. He greeted the us and told us to introduce ourselves. Fortunately I was at the back row so I was able to stare at her beautiful face, she looked different from other girls and I felt love for the first time all the other ladies I have been with were all lust but now the true feeling is surfacing, I began to imagine all sort of nonsense with her when I felt a tap at me back. Yes, yes. It's your turn to introduce yourself a guy said. Ooooh thanks, am Jake Paris the pet son of the CEO of Unitex resource company I said boastfully. When I was done with the introduction I noticed an increase in the lust in their eyes. I sat down proudly and noticed a little smile surfaced on her face.
Ruby's POV
A guy was sitting directly opposite me, I was so surprised when he introduced himself as a son of the popular Mr Paris. A smile surfaced on my face cause I felt like there's something I love about this guy and he is also the first guy am having a crush on. Maybe that's because he looks handsome and well built. I wonder what he is thinking of because he just kept on staring at me. I began to feel uneasy and different thoughts flashed through my mind " Maybe he thinks am not to good to be sitting next to him or to ugly to be next to him or am just a piece of trash" while this thoughts were going through my mind I felt someone cuddling me and then lifted my head I was so surprised to find out that it was the guy. You have been crying; what's wrong? he asked. I touched my face and found out that I was actually crying I became confused and embarrassed. Never mind it's alright he uses his handkerchief that was when I noticed that lecture was over and everyone eyes were on us I felt really shy and quickly withdrew from his arms. What is your name he asked. Ruby...Ruby Sam I replied. What a nice name would you respond if I call you cupcake he said. Why I asked. Cause Ruby brand is the name of my favorite cupcake he replied. I looked at him and smiled, okay I quickly stood up to leave cause as every second passed I got more shy. Wait can I at least have your number he said I.....I...I... don't give guys my number I said. Why! I....I..am being monitored. Monitored! he asked. Goodbye I said and left. He doesn't know what am going through my phone and everything all about me is being monitored am never free I don't know why my family maltreats me so much for the death of my mum how on earth can I kill my mum for goodness sake, I like this guy but am definitely going to regret it if I give him my number.
