High school romance

Irene sat her bed playing games on her phone

She doesn’t study anyway

Her phone started to ring but it was a Restricted number

“Hello? ”

“Irene, it’s me ” she heard her mom’s voice on the other side of the phone

“Ah…………..”

“I’m outside Mj’s house, can you come out for a while ” she said and hang up

Irene took her jacket and walked outside the house, she saw mother sitting on a bench and she walked up to her

“Have you been well?” Her mother asked and she scoffed

“Do you expect to be well? My father was accused of murder and imprisoned and my mother abandoned me” she smirked

“I’m sorry, i miss you that’s why I came to see you ”

“Too bad. For a single day, I never missed you” she said and turned to leave

” I want to get married to Mj’s father ” her mother said and she stopped

“You should be ashamed of yourself, you abandoned me to marry a rich man, you are really something else!”Irene half yelled and her mother sighed

“I’m sorry Irene, I know I did wrong, please forgive me, I’m your mother ”

“My life has been tough, I have up to 7 part time jobs so that I can pay for my house rent and feed myself, my classmates make fun of me that I had to change my school” she said as tears gathered in her eyes

“I will become a good mother ”

“Good mother my foot. You are not my mother, so do whatever you want ” she said and walked back inside when she bumped into mj

“Where have you been, let’s eat, I just finished cooking ” he said proudly

“Eat yourself, I’m not in the mood ” she said but mj noticed her eyes were teary

“What happened ” he asked and she tried to control her tears but she couldn’t

She suddenly burst into tears

“What’s wrong? ” Mj asked

She wanted to say something but she couldn’t find her voice

“can I hug you? I’m not doing it because I like you but when I was young, my mother used to hug me whenever I cry ” he said but Irene didn’t say anything

He moved to her and hugged her

Leo opened the door and saw the both of them , he turned back and closed the door

He walked outside and sat on a bench

“What are you doing here? ” he heard his father’s voice behind him

“What of you? ” He asked and his father sat beside him

“I came to check on the both you and mj but it seems you are doing fine in his house” his father said and he shook his head

“I’m not doing fine ” he said and his father looked at him

“Why? ”

“Dad, Whenever I see her, I want to hold her, if she is not with me, I miss her, when I see her with another guy, it hurts my heart, I want to be with her everytime ” he paused and looked at his father
“What are these feelings? “he asked

“It’s Love ” his father said and looked at him suspiciously

“Is it that girl Irene? ” he asked but Leo didn’t say anything

“Just tell her the truth before she gives her heart to someone else ” his father said and stood up

“I’m going ” he said and walked away
Leo sighed and stared at the sky

“Why do I feel like a loser ” he thought to himself

**************,**********

Mj disengaged the hug and Irene wiped her tears

“Thanks ” she said

“Of course, you should be thankful, my clothes are wet because of your tears ” he said and Irene glared at him

“Why did you cry? ” he asked

“Ugh? ”

” I said why did you cry?” he asked again and Leo entered

“Leo, where have you been? ” Irene asked smiling and mj scoffed

“She’s smiling in front of him again ” he murmured

Leo looked at mj and then he looked at Irene before going to his room

“That son of a b***h” Mj rolled his eyes

“Did he just ignore me?” Irene asked and mj nod
“Is he sick? ” she asked and followed him to his room

“Leo, are you sick? ” she asked and touched his forehead

“No, I’m okay ” he said and sat on the bed

“Where were you all day, I was worried ” she said and he looked at her

“You were worried about me? ” he asked and she nod

“Of course, you are my friend ” she said

“I won’t ask you the reason why you and mj are always fighting anymore but can you try to make things up with him, whenever I see you guys fighting it breaks my heart a lot” she said and looked at Leo but he wasn’t looking at her and he wasn’t saying anything

She sighed and turned to leave but Leo held her hand

“I think I like you ” he said and Irene looked at him

“I like you, I want you to be mine ” he said and Irene wanted to talk but he stopped her

“Don’t give me an answer now, I’m not yet ready ” he said and walked outside

The next day at school, Irene sat in the library when Zoey ran to her

“Have you heard the latest ” She asked and Irene arched her brow

“What? ”

“The actress that will act as the heroine in Mj’s upcoming drama ”

“Yeah, what’s up with her ”

“She’s switching to our school ” Zoey said and Irene nod

“I’m not surprised” she said and continued what she was doing

“Why are girls flocking around Mj, I’m sure she is switching because of Mj ” Zoey said

****************

Mj sat in the school garden when Leo walked up to him and sat beside him

“I heard an actress is switching to our school because of you ” he said and Mj scoffed

“And what does that have to do with you? ”

“Let’s be friends again at least for the sake of Irene ” Leo said and Mj stood up

“I don’t want to be friends with you so stop bothering me ” he said

“I don’t want to be friends with you either, I’m only this because of the people who cares about us ” Leo half yelled

“Have you forgotten what you did in the past, do you still want to be my friend after doing that? ” Mj asked and Leo sighed with frustration

“The past is gone, I want to be your friend again ” Leo said and Mj smirked

“I will never forgive you Leo, don’t even dream about it ”

” What happened in the past? ” they heard Irene’s voice behind them

“This has nothing to do with you “Mj said

“What happened in the past, tell me ” Irene asked again looking at the both of them
