After Divorce I Became A Zillionaire

Donna

I’ve been looking for ways to approach him and tell him just how much I love him, but the fear of getting rejected by someone like Xander keeps pulling me back everytime, I’ve had a crush on Xander since the first day if college, but I’ve done well in hiding my feelings, especially when him and his brothers are wanted by almost every girl in college and since I wasn’t from a rich family and don’t have much to offer him, I did my best in marking my feelings and watch him leave the best of his life,

It hurts me so much every time I see him flirting with any girl it hurt me deeply to my soul, but I don’t even have any right to be angry so all I do I’d go to the school roof top and cry out my eyes till I couldn’t cry anymore, I wasn’t that pretty so obviously someone like Xander would never look my way, but recently I made a decision

We will be graduating soon, and there is no point in hiding my feelings anymore. I have decided to confess to him and even if I get rejected at least I won’t have any regrets In life because I tried. Today I made up my mind that I will be confessing to Xander, and since this morning I have been practicing thousands of ways to confess to him. but my clumsy self will make a mess and that’s for sure. I tried searching through google but . I didn’t like what I saw so I aborted the idea. I wanted the confession to flow so naturally and everything I will say will be from the deepest part of my heart.

When I say I’m not rich like the other student I meant it, I only have my mother in this entire world, I don’t have friends and was able to get into this school through scholarship and that’s more reason why I kept my distance away from Xander and also hide my feelings but what’s the point of hiding my feelings when we will be graduating soon, the most important thing is that I confess my love to him

Whether I get rejected or not is left to fate, the most important thing is that I won’t regret not confessing to him. I was done getting ready for school. I came out of my room and saw that my mother had already set the food on the dining

“Good morning mother”

“My pretty Donna, how was your night?”

“It was fine mother” I smile sitting down already as I munch on my food

“So what about what we discussed, hope you’re still going to confess to him??”

“Of course mother, I promised you already” I smile

“That’s my baby girl”

I was so close to my mother, since I don’t have a sibling or a friend I could talk to…my mother became my best friend, I was so grateful that I have a mother like her who listens to me and understands me, she know that I have a crush on Xander and she persuaded me to talk to him about my feelings else I might regret it later in the future, and that’s why I decided to confess my feelings to him today.

My father died when I was five, and since then it’s been my mother and I against the world, I know I don’t have anything to offer to Xander, is not like I’m attractive and that’s why I have this feeling that there is ninety nine percent chance of me getting rejected, of course someone like Xander has different beauties running after him.

I got to school that day feeling so anxious and nervous, my palms were cold from nervousness, I have been sitting at my usual spot which is the window side, waiting for Xander to walk in anytime so I can approach him and tell him how I feel

I have been waiting for close to a hour but yet there is no sign of Xander anywhere, I was almost at the point of losing hope when he finally walked in through the door with his brothers, I wanted for them to take their seat, before I stood up, I breathed in and out building my courage, it’s either now or never. I left my seat and started walking to Xander, his brothers tapped him when they saw me coming

Could it be that they already knew of my feelings? I got to him and bowl slightly to him and his brothers

“I…. I…. want to talk to you” I stuttered,

“Excuse me” I was forcefully pushed by the side, and when I turned to see who it was, I saw Ella the school most popular girl

“I’m here to talk with Xander” She said throwing death glares at me

“Get out” Came Xander’s cold voice, I turned around in disappointment

”I’m not talking to you Donna, I mean her…” I heard Xander’s voice and turned to see him gloating at Ella. I was shocked, Xander rejected Ella and chose to talk to me…

“Bitch…..” Ella curse in anger and stormed out of the class, Xander rolled his eyes at her drama,

“What do you want to talk about?” He asked me,

“Ehh…. can we talk at the rooftop” I manage to asked, and he nodded immediately without rejecting, all these is catching me by surprise, first was rejecting Ell to talk to a nobody like me, and now he even agreed to go to the rooftop with me

“Let’s go” He said to me as he stood up, I nodded and allowed him walk first while I followed behind

“What do you want to talk about?” He asked as we got to the rooftop bit it felt like all the courage I built all disappeared at once, but then I remembered my mother’s words, “avoid regrets”

“If you won’t say anything then I’ll leave” He said and started walking away.

“I love you Xander Michaelson!”

He halted on his steps and turned to look at me

“What do you say?”

“I said I love you Xander Michaelson”

He smiled with his two hands tucked in his pant pocket

“Make me fall in love with you” He smirk

“Huh?” I was confused

“You love me right?”

“Yes I nodded”

“Then make me to love you back” He shrugged

“Wait…. you don’t care that I’m not pretty?”

“You’re pretty” He said immediately with a serious look

“I’m not rich….”

“But I am”

“Huh?”

“Are you in or not?” He said ready to leave

“Of course I’m in” I said with my face beaming with smile

“Good luck” He winked and left.

“Ahhh……!” I screamed in excitement, at least I wasn’t rejected but how do I get him to love me, damn … . mother I need your help…..!
