That night after getting ho, Paige took her alarm clock and sneered ''think you can find a way to trap ? If I were to be easily bullied, then I won't have co this far. If I don't get you a hot coffee tomorrow at exactly 7:00AM, then I will call you daddy. I will set an alarm that will wake up tomorrow. I will make you the world's best coffee tomorrow Jordan Attoh''
Paige set the alarm as she murmured and mistakenly set the alarm for the next day at 6:30PM without realising. She placed the alarm by her bedside and went on to sleep.
....
Paige woke up naturally at her usual ti. She smiled and stretched herself as she turned around to look at the ti and it was already 7:30 AM and she let out a scream. She picked the alarm clock and looked at it horrified as she realised the mistake she made.
''How is this possible? I set the alarm to wake up at 6:30 AM, not 6:30 PM?'' Paige got down from the bed and rushed into the bathroom. She took a quick shower that didn't even last past 3 minutes before she went to get dressed as she picked her phone dialling Carlien's number.
''Paige?'' Carlien answered the phone after the first ring.
''Carlien, if you don't help , I will end up calling that brat Jordan Attoh my daddy today'' Paige whine over the phone as she pulled her trousers up her legs.
''What happened?'' Carlien asked and chuckled.
''That's not important. Are you already in campus?'' Paige asked hurriedly.
''Yes, I am, why? Don't tell you woke up late again?'' Carlien asked knowing her best friend too well.
''Yes, and I'm about to get screwed over. I want you to get a cup of coffee and wait at the entrance for . I will be in school in about 20 minutes' ti'' Paige said and could almost picture Carlien shaking her head.
Paige hung up and took her bag, rushing out of her room. She found her father eating breakfast and she said to him ''dad, I'm sorry I won't be joining you for breakfast''
''Why are you in such a rush, child?'' Mr. Thomas Payin asked.
''Dad, if I don't hurry, I will be calling soone else daddy today. Bye'' Paige kissed her father's cheek and ran out.
Her father looked confused.
.....
Jordan Attoh leaned beside his car as he looked at his watch counting the ti down to 7:00AM.
''9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, and...''' he looked up and saw Paige rushing towards him with the coffee in her hand.
Paige stopped in front of him, panting for breath as she stretched forth her hand towards him saying ''I'm here, sir. Your coffee''
''Quite punctual. I hope you didn't poison my coffee?'' Jordan took the coffee and raised his head to look at her.
''You know, I thought of that but I changed my mind again. Soone as petty as you, won't die in my hands'' Paige said to him and smirked.
''What?'' Jordan asked and placed the cup of coffee on top of his car. He suddenly closed in on Paige and she stepped back, hitting her back against another car that was parked behind her.
'"What are you doing?'' Paige stuttered as she felt cornered.
''What do you think?'' Jordan asked as he lowered his body to her level.
''Soone as petty as ? Soone as an as , right? No one is here. Is still early. I could actually kiss you here, you know'' Jordan said leaning much closer to her and Paige flushed, closing her eyes.
''You. Are you not a gentleman? A gentleman doesn't force a kiss on a lady'' Paige murmured still with her eyes closed and she heard a chuckled closer to her ears, turning her ears red.
''You haven't had your first kiss yet, right? How about I be the first you do that with?'' Jordan asked and Paige pursed her lips up tightly.
Jordan looked at her and felt like laughing. He was just ssing with her and her face was already red ''what do you say?'' Jordan whispered the question into her ears. They suddenly heard a car horn blowing and turned. Paige opened her eyes and saw Mirabel walking to them after getting down from her car.
Paige held her bag tightly and turned to Jordan saying ''we are no longer alone, you bully'' Paige kicked his leg and ran away. Jordan rubbed his leg that had been kicked and smiled.
''What were you doing with that girl?'' Mirabel asked irritably as she glared at Paige.
''She is not a girl. She is a lady and her na is Paige and she brought coffee'' Jordan said and picked the coffee from his car, walking away. Mirabel ran hurriedly after him.
''Jordan wait for . I have your class this morning'' Mirabel clung unto Jordan as they walked towards the Pharmacology departnt of the University.
.....
After they disappeared from her sight, Paige walked out of her hiding place and placed her hand on her beating heart murmuring ''holy cow!! What was that about? Was he teasing ? But, why did my heart beat when he drew closer to ? Asssh, I must be going crazy, thinking about it'' Paige said and shook her head. she turned to go and bumped into sobody and her bag fell down to the ground.
''Hey, what are you thinking about?'' the guy flashed her a smile as he asked. Paige looked up and saw him and mumbled.
''Beautiful man''
''What did you say?'' the guy asked and smiled again.
''Huh? I'm sorry'' Paige said and took her bag from him.
''If you are sorry, then how about you show around the school?'' the guy asked and Paige blushed.
''Are you new here?'' Paige asked.
''Bingo!! I just ca here a few days ago. I transferred here from Cosmos University'' the guy said.
''Cosmos University? I see. I am Paige Payin'' Paige said and stretched her hand to greet him properly.
''Hi, I am Anthony Badwin but you can call Tony'' the guy said finally ntioning his na.
''Oh. Okay, well, the administration block is down there at your left. We have the lecture halls over there. which major are you offering?'' Paige asked and looked at his face. He was also looking at her intently making her feel a little awkward.
"I am here to continue with my previous major which is General and clinical anaesthetics'' Anthony said.
''Oh that is what my best friend is also majoring in. I can call her to show you the way out. I am not familiar with that departnt though so of our lectures are combined'' Paige said and took out her phone to call Carlien but Anthony snatched it from her saying.
''I want you to take around the school, not your friend''
''Oh. Then, this way'' Paige said and started walking away towards their University's Administration block which was a far left to where they were currently.
Once they got to the administration block, they stood in front of the school's big na plate that read 'City View Scientific Research University'
''This is our administration block but mind you we have different departnts and each departnt have their own staff block in this University. For you, your departnt block is just opposite to mine which is the General and Clinic Surgery departnt'' Paige said to Anthony as she pointed at the various buildings since they were standing at a pivotal spot in the campus.
''You will be able to find the General dicine departnt just adjacent to the Pharmacology departnt'' Paige added and looked at Anthony. He seed to have paced out as he stared into her face. ''Hello, are you listening to ?'' Paige asked.
''Yes, take to my departnt. I need to et our head of departnt for so souvenirs for my lectures tomorrow'' Anthony said and held Paige's wrist, walking towards the departnt she had just showed him. Jordan walked out of the Pharmacological departnt that sa mont and saw Paige been pulled along by Anthony and he looked at them with a conflicted gaze and a frowned could be seen on his face.
.....
''Thanks for showing around and bringing here, Paige'' Anthony said as they stood in front of the General and Clinical Anaesthetics departnt.
''You are welco. I have class so I will take my leave now'' Paige said and turned to go away.
''Have a nice day and see you around, Paige'' Anthony said and Paige simply smiled and walked away.
''Wait, Paige'' Anthony said and ran to her. Paige stopped and turned to face him.
''Is there sothing else?'' Paige asked him a little confused.
''Will I see you again?'' Anthony asked.
''Yes, I think so, since we have most of our classes combined'' Paige answered and looked at him amusingly.
''Then, can I have your number? I will call you and you can send the combine class schedule later on'' Anthony said.
''Okay'' Paige said sceptically but still took out her phone to take his number. ''Here, put your number and na there, I will send the class schedule to you later''
''Okay, thanks'' Anthony took the phone and dialled in his contact and saved it before going it to Paige.
''Then, I will see you later'' Paige said and walked away. Anthony looked at her and smiled as she went away.
