Her eyes wandered to the building. The lights were turned off just as she left it.

Thank God.

Miracle rounded the hood and opened the door for her. She swung her bag on her shoulder and lingered.

'Thank you.'

'I should thank you. It was a pleasure having you around.'

She strode to her gate, glanced back at him while he waited for her to go in, she rushed back, enveloped his lips in an intend quick kiss. She noticed the shock, a smile formed on her lips triumph. When she wanted to pull away, his hand cupped the back of her neck, fixing her at a point as he devour her lips; a taste he could not get enough of. They broke off in mutual need to breathe.

'Good night.' She stepped back and walked in, leaving him perplexed at what he got himself into.

It was all strange to him, he was always the one to take the lead and leave the other perplexed. However, he was in a reverse role and was not certain if he liked it one bit although, the fluttering in his belly said otherwise.

         'Drop me here. I'd trek the remaining distance.'

'If I can drive you this far then I can as well take you home and make sure you're safe.'

'Is this a masculine type of thing?'

'Call it whatever you like. Now which turn should I take?'

She contemplated giving him the wrong direction but knowing the kind of person he was, he would still find out.

'Left.'

He obeyed.

They slowed down to the  last building which was a maisonette in a not so calm neighborhood. People hung around at corners and bars where loud music was played.

Deborah opened her door and walked to her house. At the door step, she remembered her manners and waved.

'Since you're here, you can as well come in for a drink.'

He turned of the ignition and followed her in. The scent of home and food welcomed him.

'This is homely.' He commented as they walked in, she chuckled.

'Homely as in not elegant and extravagant? I know this isn't what you're used to.'

'Right and wrong. I'm not used to this. I meant homely as in domestic. Domestic is nice.'

'Thank you.' She muttered and her siblings rush out.

'Debby is back, Debby is back.' Two pairs of arms wrapped round her and he understood what she said in the car; coming home to the untainted love, the reverence, the happinesss, was something he did not know yet he got the picture.

'Welcome Debby. Did you get us something?' The enthusiastic ten year old girl pulled her backpack, going through it like every child would go through their mother's bag.

'Let her rest first Lucy.' The six year old boy said before Deborah carried him up, comfortably placing him on her hip.

'Did David eat today?'

'Yes Debby.' Lucy sighed and dropped the bag.

'I see candies. Here, have one.' She handed her younger brother and paused, staring at Stephen with narrowed eyes.

'Are you Deborah's boyfriend?'

'Lucy Matthews! Where are your manners? Did you even greet him?'

'Good evening sir.'

Stephen grinned and squatted to her level.

'Good evening young lady. How are you?'

'I'm fine. So are you my sister's boyfriend?'

'Nope. I'm just her friend. We go to the same school.'

Her jaws dropped.

'The rich kids school? Debby said I can school there after I pass my common entrance exams.'

'Of course you can. The school can't get enough of pretty and intelligent girls like you.'

She squealed and hugged him. He was taken aback yet he gently patted her back before she released him.

'So if you're not Deborah's, will you be my boyfriend?'

'Uhmm. Let's see.' He scratched his jaw in mock thoughts, seeing the horror in Deborah's eyes at her sister's attitude.

'Before you'd grow to my age, I'd be very old and ugly. There'd be other cute boys that would beg to be your boyfriend.'

'Sounds better.' She turned to her older sister and brother who had fallen asleep.

'I like him.'

Deborah shook her head and went inside to drop David. He had troubles letting go and cried a little more. When she succeeded in calming him, she came out to see Lucy sitting by the dinning table with stacks of paperbags.

'Where's he?'

'He left.'

'Who brought these?'

'Him.' Lucy shrugged.

'He said they're gifts for David and I.'

Helen balled her fist and snatched her book. 'Thank you idiot!''Idiocy is failing twice. You don't know anything.''At least, I can solve mathematics with my eyes closed and still beat you. Everyone's good in their own way. Enjoy the limelight for now, that's if you got an A.''Oh spare me, who'd pick A plus and F over an A and B or two B plus?

'But I have me a girl here who'd strike better.' He winked at Christina who did the same thing with her friends. 'Kingsley would show you guys how winners do.' She puffed out her tongue.
