Chapter 4: The Date

From that point on, Guruji came to her house almost everyday. Aliyah and Guruji’s relationship had blossomed into a warm friendship.

“Guruji?” Aliyah asked.

“Hm?” Guruji looked over with a small piece of a ramen noodle stuck to his face. Aliyah giggled, took a napkin and wiped it off his face.

“Why do you hang out with me? Our science project is done. Most guys would’ve been long gone and would pretend as if they didn’t even know me.” She said, with her head down.

“Because I’m not like most guys. I guess the fact that I was raised by my grandma also has something to do with it.” He answered, scratching his head.

“You were raised by your grandmother?” She asked, surprised.

“Yeah, my parents died when I was 5. I don’t even remember them, but my grandmother used to show me pictures of them all the time when I was young.” Guruji replied.

“So, you just have a mom?” Guruji aksed gently.

“Mm hm. My dad died when I was 10.” She answered.

“Oh.” Was the only thing Guruji could think of to say. Silence reigned for several minutes before he asked Aliyah something he’d been wanting to ask for a while.

“Do you wanna go out with me tonight?” He asked, rubbing the back of his neck nervously.

“You mean a date?” She asked, surprised.

“Well…yeah.” He said nervously.

“…Okay…” She said hesitantly.

“But could you maybe leave the trench coat behind? You can still wear a jacket with a hood of course, I just meant tha-” She cut him off by putting a single finger to his lips.

“I get the message, I won’t wear this trench coat on the date.” She said, with her head down still.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

They set their date for 7:00, so they could eat dinner first and go to a movie after. Aliyah stood at her closet, figuring out what to wear. Finally, she decided on black capri’s and her hip-length black jacket with a hood. She went over to the mirror and applied her makeup. Even though she didn’t need it, she always wore makeup, not because the black makeup she wore helped conceal her face better under the hood. She refered to it as her, “camo-wear”, to keep her face as well as her shame under cover of darkness. Just as she finished getting ready, the doorbell rang. She looked over at her alarm clock that read 6:40.

‘He’s early?’ She thought, bewildered that a guy would come on time, let alone early, since she often heard stories of guys coming sometimes hours late. She ran downstairs and opened the door. Guruji’s eyes roamed over her body.

‘She has a beautiful body.’ He thought, surprised. Aliyah kept her head down, blushing from his intense stare. He finally snapped back to reality and held out his folded arm.

“Always the perfect gentleman I see.” Aliyah said amused, still not lifting her head as she slipped her arm into his.

“Only for you Aliyah my dear.” He said smiling.

Dinner went by well, Guruji kept Aliyah’s spirits up by telling her amusing stories from his childhood. He did most of the talking, she just listened. They finished dinner with time to spare, so they leisurely made their way to the movie theatre to see, “50 First Dates”. During the movie Aliyah had to use the restroom, so she got up and went. When she went inside there was no one else there. While in the stall, she heard the bathroom door open and someone walk in. Thinking nothing of it, she went on with her business. She got out of the stall and washed her hands, then dried them off with a paper towl. Suddenly, the stall behind her opened. She looked up at the mirror, only to see Gujju.

“Well, well, well. Looky who came out of her hole!? Aliyah the freak! Who are you here with dear? Hm?” She asked as she circled her. Aliyah opened her mouth to say something, but before she could, Gujju grabbed her by her hood and slammed her against the bathroom wall.

“Look you little wh*re, I know you’re here with Guruji, so don’t play dumb. You may have him right now but sooner or later he’ll mine again, so don’t get too close or you’ll end up getting hurt in more ways than one. Understand?” Gujju hissed at her, while Aliyah kept her head down to make sure Gujju didn’t see her.

Gujju pushed off of her and sauntered out, sending her an evil smirk over her shoulder.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Guruji noticed that when Aliyah returned that she wasn’t acting the same as she was before. Even though her couldn’t see her face, he noticed that her attitude had changed immensely. The movie ended not too long after she returned, so Guruji took her home. When they got
to her house, he opened the car door and escorted her to the door. They stood there for a moment. Aliyah looked down at the ground while Guruji contemplated on what to do, since this was normally the part where he got to kiss her, but he knew that would never be acceptable.

“Well, I know this is the part where I’m supposed to kiss you, but how about a goodnight hug instead, eh?” He said sheepishly.

Aliyah smiled under her hood. As she nodded in agreement to his idea. Guruji smiled and embraced Aliyah in his arms in a warm hug. Aliyah felt so safe in his arms that she didn’t want to leave, but finally, Guruji broke the hug and said, “Goodnight. I’ll see you tomorrow.” And with that said, he left as Aliyah watched from her window.
