My First love - Angela Jerica (easy books to read .txt) 📗

as I got back to my senses I pulled out and gasped for air.

I didn’t know what to do so I just looked at him with my what-did-you-just-do eyes.

“I’m so sorry…” he said as he let go of my waist and I jumped out of bed.

“ I gotta go.” I said as I walked to my stuff.

“Please stay… Let’s just finish the report.” He said.

“HELL NO.” I shouted. “ So you can kiss me again or who knows what you wanted to do to me?” I shouted.

“Well at least just let me drive you home. You can’t find your way back.” He said. He was right,   his is place was further to mine so I couldn’t walk back home.

“Ok then I’ll stay…but only for the report. And don’t you even dare come closer to me.” I warned as I got back to the bed. I tried as much as I could to avoid his eyes or even looking at him.

He took me home when we were finished with the project. He dropped me outside my house and shouted

“I’m sorry Alex.” He said.

I didn’t even look backwards as I got into the house.

 

I turned on my phone and found missed calls from my mom and messages saying that she and my mom are going to be away for a while so I should take care of Mike. She had assigned someone to stay with us for that time and look after Mike when he comes from school because Mike only stays for halfday of school.

 

I went to Mike’s room and found him curled up in his bed.

“Hey, what’s wrong champ?” I asked he’s never like this.

“Finally you’re home. I thought you went with mom and dad too.” He said.

“I’m so sorry my phone was out of power so I didn’t see mom’s texts.” I told him.

“ Where have you been?” he asked. “ I saw Tasha at the coffee shop and you were not with her.”

He continued.

“I was with doing a science project with a friend.” I told him. “And what were you doing at the coffee shop alone?” I asked

“ I was with the nanny.” He said.

“What nanny?” I asked.

“She’s in the kitchen, didn’t you see her when you were coming?”

“ Ok then. I’ll go take a shower then I’ll be back ok?” I said.

“Ok then.” He said.

 

I took a shower then texted Tasha on what happened between Jake and I. She kept on teasing me until I decide to go downstairs to check on the ‘nanny’. After dinner Mike and I stayed and watched a movie till he fell asleep and I had to carry him to his room. He is so heavy when asleep. I went back to my room and Jake had sent me a text saying that he was sorry about earlier. I didn’t wanna reply so I just watched a movie till I fell asleep.

The next morning I woke up when the Nanny, Susan, was preparing Mike for school. I wasn’t feeling well so I was gonna stay home on that day.

“Hey, ain’t you going to school today?” Mike asked when he saw me.

“No. I’m not feeling that well so I’ll just stay home.” I replied.

“Should I call your parents?” Susan asked.

“Don’t bother, I’ll just tell them myself.” I said. “ Do you need any help?” I asked noticing that she was making breakfast at the same time.

“No, I’m fine besides you’re sick.” She said.

“Ok then, I’ll be upstairs if you need me and Mike have fun at school?” I told them as I went back to bed.

‘Hi Tasha. Not feeling well so I’m staying home today. Please bring me any assignments.’ I texted Tasha and she replied almost immediately.

‘What’s up? Did Jake’s kiss come with a bacteria or what? Hahaha. ’ She teased back.

‘Fuck you Tasha.’ I replied.

‘Ok. Anyway, get well soon. I’ll come to see you after school.’ She said.

‘Ok…see you soon.’

 

Just when I was done, Mike came in,

“Bye Alex, I’m leaving now,” he said.

“Ok, say hi to Shana,” I said. Jake had told me that she went to the same school and was in the same grade with him so I figured out they knew each other.

“How did you know her?” he asked.

“OH. I forgot to tell you. I am in the same school with her cousin Jake. He is the one I was doing the project with. Now go to school or you’ll be late.” I said as I hugged him.

“I think you have a fever, you’re really hot. You should call mom and dad,” he said.

“You don’t worry, I’ll be fine, ok? Go to school now.” I told him.

 

I also texted Jake and told him to send me any assignments in Science class. Which was obviously a bad idea coz he would have to come to my house. I called my mom and told her that I stayed home because I wasn’t feeling well. She was all mothered up at first then I told her it was just a fever and a mere stomachache.

 

I then fell asleep and woke up when Mike was already back from school. I had not eaten anything since morning but I wasn’t hungry anyway. I went downstairs to grab something to eat so Susan fixed me a sandwich but I didn’t even finish it. I didn’t feel like eating anything so I just went back to my room and watched a movie with Mike.

 

School was already over so Tasha was to come any time soon. She came straight to my room and she helped me study what I had missed in school. After a while she went back to her house to have a shower and change. Susan then came to my room.

“There is a guy called Jake waiting for you downstairs.” She said.

“What does he want?” I asked disgusted just by that name.

“I don’t know. Just go and see him.” She said.

“Okay.” I said and she left.

I waited for a while then got out of bed. I felt a sharp pain cross my stomach and I groaned in pain and held my stomach tightly. Mike hurried to me

“What’s wrong Alex,” he asked worried.

“Nothing. I’ll be fine. Can you help me downstairs?” I said as he helped me get up.

He’s short but still helped me gain my balance. I wasn’t really okay but I just said that for him not to worry. My stomach really hurt a lot as we got down the stairs. Once we were down, I noticed Jake coming towards us to help Mike. I couldn’t stand the pain any longer so I let out a scream and fell down.

“Alex, please get up.” Mike said while crying and that was the only thing I heard then I collapsed.

 

9.My first love

When I woke up I found myself in a hospital bed and Jake, Tasha, Susan and Mike were there. Mike was crying and Tasha was trying to comfort him. He broke out of her embrace once he saw me awake and came to me.

“Alex,” he said as he came to hug me.

“What happened?” I asked as I tried to sit down. The sharp pain again cut across my stomach and this time it was much painful.

“Ouch…” I cried touching my stomach. A nurse came in and told all of them to go out.

“Hi. I’m nurse Angie,” she said. “We contacted your parents and they are on their way here.”

“What? You called them without asking me?” I asked knowing how busy they were.

“We had to considering how serious your case is.” She said.

“What do you mean by serious?” I asked.

“You have appendicitis and you might need an operation. You are even lucky that you were brought here earlier,” she said

“What do you mean?” I asked.

“ Had you delayed for another two hours, you would have died.” She said.

 

I was shocked by the news that I didn’t know how to reply to that. Tears fell down my cheeks at the thought that I was almost dying and more so that I was gonna have an operation.

“Hey there,” I heard Jake’s voice next to me.

“What are you doing here?” I asked. Trying to wipe off my tears.

“Your folks are here, they’re talking to the doctor now. I just wanted to check on you before I leave.” He said.

“Okay, you can leave now,” I said.

“ Not until you tell me why you were crying when I got here.” He said as he sat beside me.

“ I’m sick…the nurse says I would have died if I had delayed for two more hours.” I said and started crying.

“So it was better I brought you here earlier.” He said.

“ Wait, so you’re the one who brought me here.” I said.

“Yeah, you collapsed when I came to your house and Tasha wasn’t there so I just carried you to my car and drove you here.” He said.

“ Then I owe you my life.” I said.

“Hey there,” I heard my mom at the door.

“ Mom…” I said.

“Am I interrupting something?” She asked.

“ No mom, meet Jake. Jake, my mom,” I introduced them.

“Hi Miss…” he started, “I don’t know Alex’s last name so I don’t know your name.”

“It’s ok, I’m Mrs. Jones.” She said.

“I’m Jake Miller, nice to meet you Mrs. Jones.”

“He is the one who brought me here.” I said.

“Oh. Thank you so much Jake, I owe you for saving my daughter” She said.

“No ma’am, anyone else could have done that.”

“How did you find her in the first place?” she asked.

“She is my science partner in school so I had come to give her an assignment when she collapsed,” he said.

“Thank you so much for bringing her. Mind my asking but are you John Miller’s son?” She asked him.

“Yeah. How do you know him?” he asked back.

“He’s partners with her dad.” She said.

“Speaking of dad, where’s he?” I asked.

“He’s signing you operation form.” She said.

“So it’s true I’m having an operation,” I said.

“I’m really sorry baby, why didn’t you tell us earlier you were having pains?” She asked.

“I didn’t wanna bother you guys coz you were sort of busy and I though it was just a stomachache.” I said.

“No baby. Being sick is not disturbing. Like in this case what if Jake was not there, and you stayed for long, you would have died.”

“I’m sorry mom.” I said

“I guess I should go now.” Jake said.

“No. You a can stay here and look after her.” My mom said.

“Why not Tasha?” I asked.

“She went back with Mike so I have to go and check on him. You must have scared him when
