Chapter 72:Whatever it is, I Like it
Marcus POV
That is exactly what I would do to anyone that could do what this girl did me, grab the person from the neck and strangle him right now,
But look at me, I was captured by the sight of her deep green eyes.
I had no idea I was bleeding not until I perceive the smell of the blood while she scream at the same time,
“You are bleeding!” Zena loudly whisper, and she brought a white handkerchief and placed it on Marcus' nose, she was on the verge of wiping the blood that stain Marcus's lips while Richard ran towards the exit doorway and paused,
“Do you know him? Is that your boyfriend?” Marcus calmly enquired while Zena turned at the same time to see who Marcus was talking about and she said,
“Yes!” she loudly affirmed but stammer a bit as she tries to clear her statement,
“I mean no, not my boyfriend but I know him!”
Marcus was still gazing at Richard, and he nodded his head as he clearly understands what Zena meant,
Although, Richard might have heard part of the statement the other question Marcus did not get that part.
But he clearly heard Zena say, I know him and he boldly walk close to Zena and said even though Marcus and he were staring very close like they had a fight in their previous life,
“Are you okay Elizabeth?” Richard asked,
“Yeah I'm fine, as you can see, I injure him.”
“Oh sorry, manh” Richard display his hand for a handshake but Marcus could not shake him because his hands were stained so Richard took back his hands.
“What's your name?” Marcus ask,
“Zena! or Elizabeth!” Zena said as Richard takes her by the left side while both walked out of the rain to get the block B side for the lecture.
“Zena!” Marcus murmured while still holding the white handkerchief and a few seconds.
He watched Zena disappear into the building then he entered the Art department.
“Thanks for checking up on me!” Zena appreciates and Richard announced,
“I was not checking up on you at my own will,” he stopped walking the moment they got to a class of students with familiar faces from the previous class and Richard continued,
“Prof Wilson asked me to fetch you!”
“Who is Professor Wilson, and is Professor by the way?
Is that his name? ” Zena sincerely asks,
Richard just had his taste of curiosity question from Zena and immediately he understood Zena kind of personality and he answered calmly,
“The lecturer you just had his class a few minutes ago, and professor are rank in studies a lecturer attains and its the highest level in academics.”
“Hmmm!
I would love to be a professor!” Zena affirmed and he replied,
“Then make your book your middle name.” she smile and said,
“I get that! study hard!”
Both of them chuckle and join the noisy class but it did not take long for the lecturer to enter the class.
The lectures ended an hour and thirty minutes while Zena and her new friend left at once back to the previous they were before.
But then again, on their to the class, Marcus was patiently waiting for Zena like he knew she will be definitely returning to the class.
Zena and Richard on the way to the exit walkway, Marcus called,
“Zena!, can I see you for a minute” she paused climbing the two-step layer to reach the exit door,
“Catch you later but don't be late for class!” Richard advised and left Zena while he left for the class.
Marcus left his spot while he move too close to Zena as she also had to walk close to him and the moment they got to each other Marcus said,
“Can I ask you a question?”
“Sure!” Zena announced as she raise her head a bit high while she gaze at him and he said,
“Can I be your close friend?”
Zena announced again,
“Sure!”
Marcus smiled relieving his nice teeth that make his smile perfect and he said,
“I hope you understand what I mean by a close friend!
Since we are close we can stain each other bed!” he moves his head like he wants to nuzzle Zena.
That was confusing that Zena had to ask after she had thought about Marcus's phrase 'stain each other bed',
“Please what do you mean by staining each other bed?”
Marcus then smile again, and this time, it cut Zena off guard that she did not know when she glow and admire his smile and she said,
“You look cute!”
It was like Marcus has been waiting for the words that he shortly applaud,
“Thanks!
No one has said such a thing to me ever before,” he smiles while he compliments.
Zena was swept into his nice and cute smile especially the well arrange teeth that are clean and sexy,
She stood close to Marcus that he almost nuzzle her but was cut off when Richard yelled from the door,
“Zena! You have just a minute to get here.”
Zena halted from raising her feet, and she took a step backward with a frozen smile on her face while Marcus did the same too.
They both smile at themselves, and after having taken six steps backward, she turns and rushes up for her lectures.
She was just entering the class and the lecturer was beside her entering too.
Both of them had entered but Zena doubles quickly got to her seat before the lecturer set for lectures.
The lecture was fun as usual and Zena had only glared behind Richard's seat ones.
Although Richard had expected her to turn, as usual, she never did again after she had turned a few minutes ago while having the class.
The class ended and she immediately picked up her notes and purse, on the verge of leaving her seat Richard halted her,
“Are you busy at home I can come to visit you right?”
Zena smiled as she said,
“No way!
My mom is a cop and she forbid me from having anything to do with a guy for now.”
“Really???” Richard asks in a poor lonely tone,
“Mmh!” Zena replied as she adjust her purse's hand on her shoulder after she had flicked her hair backward and placed it behind her ear.
“So I will see you tomorrow?” she said,
“Tomorrow then!” Richard answered while both of them left the class to the exit door.
The moment Zena and Richard busted out of the door, Zena saw Marcus standing where she had left him.
This time, she walk to him and said,
“Are you waiting for someone?”
“Yes!
And that person is right before me, wearing my most favorite color 'Red wine' on her head.”
Zena had forgotten she is wearing a wine red baret and she flick her sight in search of the person with the wine red while she was still sticking a lovely smile on her face.
After searching but could not find anyone or pick anyone she said,
“I can not find your favorite color anywhere.”
Marcus calmly replied,
“You haven't searched-”
Suddenly a trice car horn paused Marcus and both of them looked at once, it was Zena's mom, Mercy.
