HER ADVERSITY: Chapter 21 – 30

Chapter Twenty Two
GRACE POV
After some minutes of staying in the living room, I decided to go to the study room to continue the experiments.
One hour was gone already and all we had left was three hours to be done with the experiment on osmosis.
I sighed feeling a bit nervous as I opened the door to the study room and then I walked in but not without noticing the figure of a person sitting on a seat.
It was Dylan!
His eyes were glued to his phone and the way his attention was focused on the screen made me feel that whatever he was staring at was surely important to him.
“Uh…sorry for coming in late”.I didn’t know if I should have apologized but I said it anyway and I can’t possibly change the hands of time.
As usual, he kept quiet.
It wasn’t a surprise to me. I mean, wasn’t he regarded as a quiet devil in school?
I shrugged and kept some materials for the project on the only table in the study room and just then, his eyes moved to the materials on the table before he dropped his phone aside.
Okay?
I wore my gloves and checked out the experiment we carried out yesterday on osmosis and a smile crossed my lips when I observed a rise of sugar solution in the main experiment while the control experiment didn’t show any change.
“Oh My Goodness! It worked, it truly did work! I did it, we did it!! Yeppi!”.
I yelled with so much excitement in my voice as I fling my hands in the air dramatically but suddenly, when I felt Dylan’s eyes on me, I stopped and blushed embarrassedly.
“I didn’t mean that… It was not intentional. I was just happy, I couldn’t control my feelings then it happened and….”.I stopped talking when I realized I was talking too much.
“Am sorry”.I added lowly and cleared my throat, feeling the awkwardness in the air.
Okay, that was so embarrassing. I know I shouldn’t have done that but I was too happy. I mean the experiment on osmosis worked perfectly well and that means we done and dusted with osmosis. So, we can now proceed with Diffusion and Haemolisis.
Dylan scoffed loudly and stare back at his phone.
I began wondering why he is always with his phone but I didn’t want to ask him.
Anyways, I sat on a seat and thought of what we were going to carry out today.
Diffusion or Haemolisis? But I don’t know why I feel we should take some rest today and do those experiments tomorrow.
“Hello, it’s the maid!”.Someone said as she knocked on the door.
The voice was like that of Mrs Skylar and that means only one thing, Mrs Skylar was the one knocking on the door.
I waited for Dylan to say come in since he was her boss but he kept quiet and in order not to waste her precious time, I replied instead.
“Come in!”.
The door creak open and Mrs Skylar came in with two glasses of juice on a silver tray.
“Am so sorry to interrupt but I think you both might um… need this”.She said with a faint smile as she dropped the tray on the round table in the study room.
It was more like a reading table..
“Please, excuse me”.She added and with a slight bow, she left the room immediately.
Geez! Left again with Dylan?
He seems boring. He hardly talk, the only thing he know how to do is operating his phone.
Like seriously, why was I paired with him? Damn! I feel so bored. Gish! That teacher, Mr Kelvin, he is to blame for all this.
I sighed and tried to take a glass of juice on the tray but my fingers mistakenly brushed on Dylan’s arm.
He was also trying to take a glass of juice on the tray!
My fingers shook and I stood frozen as I felt Dylan’s hard green veins which were kind of popping out of his flawless skin.
I gulped my saliva without blinking as I felt my cheeks turn hot from too much blushing.
I was embarrassed, nervous and of course scared.
Dylan seem to have noticed my frozen state cause his eyes glanced at my fingers which was still touching his arm, and then he glanced at my face.
Before a minute could pass, he did something I never thought he would do again.
“Be free with me, puppy!”.He spoked.

? JEANANN’S RESIDENCE
Authoress Prosper POV
Jeanann glared hard at Angela who was shivering so hard that her eyes were now rotating.
She was standing outside the living room door, she only came to carry out the experiment but the way Jeanann was glaring at her was making her feel lifeless.
“I…only came to…”.
“Leave!”.Jeanann scowled at her and she gasped with her eyes popping out of their sockets.
‘Leave? What does she mean by leave?’.Angela thought, confusedly.
“I don’t under…”.
“I said leave, you fool!”.Jeanann cut her off angry.
“But…”.
“Oh! Do you want my palm to caress your ugly cheeks?”.Jeanann asked and Angela breathe out heavily.
“No! Am sorry, I will leave now”.She said and quickly ran out of the environment.
Jeanann sighed trying to calm herself down but it wasn’t working out.
Like…what the hell? How could that bich, Grace, dare hang up on her? Who does that? Who dares hang up on her?
She growled and threw a flower vase on the wall. It scattered and the pieces came crashing on the floor.
She ruffled her hair and released a loud scream which could possibly be heard two streets away.
The bch should be happy she is even asking her to be her friend cause the Jeanann every one know doesn’t beg, she commands!
Her phone began ringing but she ignored it, when her phone rang again for the sixth time, she tiredly picked it up but was surprised to see that it was Kyree’s call.
Here she was, thinking it was the bch who was calling her.
“What’s it, Kyree?”.Her voice was harsh.
“Hey, chill! I didn’t call to waste your time, just meet me up at the Goodies immediately. It’s urgent!”.He said and before Jeanann could say a word, he hung up.
