Chapter 7: After the date...

The Romance of the Unfortunate Girl

I have nothing against you Destin. I replied. So she doesn't hate me at all? Destin thought. It takes a lot for me to hate someone, alright. I replied. Destin was speechless. I see mister someone is becoming too shy for his own good. Charlotte replied. Don't Charlotte. I replied. How about you finish this off by walking her home. Charlotte replied. Do you want too? I asked. Sure I will. Destin replied. Charlotte texted Destin the directions to my house. Destin picked up her shopping bags. As we were walking to my house, the girls from school were shocked and one of them texted someone from the distance. Hey, do those girls give you a hard time because of earlier this week? Destin asked. Yeah since you apologized, I am not self-conscious about the matter anymore. I replied. When we reached my house, Elizabeth was sitting on her porch. Let me help you put those bags in your house. Destin replied. You know you sound nicer and more polite than the media perceive you. Elizabeth replied. Liz, you can't judge a book by its cover. I replied. Really that is not what you were ranting about earlier this week. Elizabeth replied. That was until he finally apologized to me properly.  I replied. As soon he put everything in the house, I directed him to my room. You know for a girls room, you have a lot maps in here. Destin replied. When I get out high school and go to college I want to major in Geography. I replied. At least you have a plan in life instead of Charlotte. Destin replied. Destin, you can put that in my closet over there. I replied. Am I in a girl's room? How do I talk to her? Destin thought. After that, Destin lost focus for some reason. Hey Destin, watch out for my trunk over there. I replied. Where is it? Destin asked. When Destin turned around he bumped his toe against the trunk. Auh my toe. Destin replied. Destin, please take your shoes off. I asked. Why would I take my shoe off? Destin asked. You could have cut your toe or bruised your toenail. I replied.  When Destin took his shoe off, his toenail turned black. I am so sorry, Destin. I replied. It is fine, you warned me but my mind was somewhere else. Destin replied. Are sure you are fine? I asked. I am fine, Gabriella. Destin replied. Are you sure, I am really concerned? I asked. Soon as I said that my mom appeared out of nowhere asking if something was wrong. What is going on here? Ghita asked. Destin bumped his toe against my trunk. I replied. I told you to move that damn thing. Ghita replied. It's ok, Mrs. Pereira. Destin replied. Oh, Pereira isn't my last name, it's her mother's maiden name.  I am sorry for mixing it up. Destin replied. You are fine, Destin. Ghita replied. Oh ok. Destin replied as he put his head down. Stop that and let me see your toe. Ghita replied. What did he do? Charlotte asked. He bumped his toe against my trunk in the corner. I replied. Oh is that so? Charlotte replied. What are you thinking about? I asked. Oh, nothing. Charlotte replied. Charlotte has come up with some kind of conclusion and I am curious. I thought.
