Repaying The Favor

[Akeem Ten-Amen]

Akeem decided to repay Ellen Banks the favor. First time he met with her, she walked in his dorm with no care in the world whether or not she was invited. He could do the same. He wanted to speak with her and somehow was under the impression she would avoid him should he ask. Besides, he shouldn’t have to ask like she was the freaking queen of England and he had to ask for an audience with her. If he wanted to talk to her, he should just talk to her.

He got in while she was not there. And the waiting was long. Perhaps he should have texted her but he doubted it would have made her run to her dorm had he done so. No, it was best to make it a surprise. And what a lovely one it was! When he first waited, he walked around the living area of her dorm, looking around and what differences there might be between this dorm and the one he resided in. They could decorate it after all and he tried to see if there’d be any of Ellen’s touch in there. He bet not. She should be glad he was not in her room though. It would have been really easy to just convince those she resided with that he could wait for her there. But there was a limit how far he’d go, despite what she might think.

In the end, he lounged on the couch and watched the television. He didn’t want her to expect him there but he was starting to get bored waiting for her. Shouldn’t she be coming soon? She better be or else not only she’d have to deal with the things he meant to tell her that would just flip their relationship upside down, but she would also have to deal with an impatient Akeem. And that might not be a good thing.
