What it meant...

Angel

I closed my eyes in my room. Obviously happy and proud of how well I had cleaned it up. The place was a mess. Having to deal with my numerous classes, assignments and some crazy lodge mates who would never stop fighting, I haven't had the time to clean up my room. It was a Saturday morning so I had dedicated my day to cleaning and washing. Now I was done, I could smell the freshness that came from the lemon detergent that I had used.

I closed my eyes and in no time I had fallen asleep.

In the dream world, I saw him. He was chasing me with his manhood stuck out like a dagger. Horrified at the sight I ran till my heels literally touched my head. It was a dream so I found myself flying away. I looked down and I saw him, his attention was not on me anymore. He was looking at a child in her crib. The baby was crying and he headed toward her. I shouted.

Sweat dripping from my pores I forced my eyes open. "This dream again " I screamed within. I was used to it by the way. But this new twist, the baby, what did it mean? I was too exhausted to think about the dream. I shoved it aside and with that I heard a rumbling in my tummy. I was hungry.

Phone rings...

Getting up from her little reading table, Angel searched for her phone. She sighted it on her bed. She reached out and grabbed it, it was Ann.

"Ann baby, how are you doing?" she asked taking in a spoon full of jollof rice she has made.

"It was horrible, Angel. My first day was horrible!" You could sense that she had cried so much her voice cracked at every word. The plans she made, everything she had expected. Maybe the outside world wasn't as rosy as she imagined.

Angel smiled, "it's just your first day dear. It will surely get better with time" she consoled. Angel knew only her words could console her little sister. She tired not to make Ann noticed how funny the situation was. She too had a bad first day in school. But now she was the class assistant course representative, respected and loved by all. She was already making great achievements despite her bad first day.

Ann on hearing Angel's success story once again smiled and hung up the call.

"Annabelle" Angel called out and giggled, realizing that Ann had cut the call. She dropped her phone and concentrated on her food. Putting a slice of fried plantain in her mouth there was a gentle tap at her door. She mumbled some curse words, threw another plantain into her mouth and rushed towards the door. She wiped her mouth and swallowed hard, then she opened it.

"Chris" she held her mouth from screaming. Wide eyed she stared at the handsome figured that stood right out her door. Almost 6ft tall, dark with his long pointed nose, and a stupid smile on his face. She peered into the hallway to make sure he didn't miss his way. This only made him laugh.

Chris was Angel's best friend, yea he was, till life happened and they weren't so close anymore. They still talked tho, but he has never visited  her ever since she moved into that apartment.

"So you mean I can't come and see you?" He interrupted her thoughts. Realizing he was not lost, that he actually came to see her, she ushered him into her room.

"Wow am really blessed. I came at the right time" he said making his way to the food Angel was eating and took in a spoon. "oh now am so lucky" they both laughed.

"What are you doing here Chris? I must confess this is quite a surprise" she was really surprised, her eyes were still wide open, revealing her soft brown eyes.

"It would look perfect in the sun" Chris found himself thinking aloud, that was meant to be in his head but well it slipped out.

"and what's that" she asked dryly.

"your eyes"

Angel chuckled and roll her eyes a secret way to reconfigure her head. "That wasn't what I asked you, Mr sweet mouth."

"Well I needed to talk to you." Chris said leaning forward.

AN: Glad to see a little bit of Angels world. Quite perfect?
Let's keep discovering shall we.

Thanks for reading
