“What's wrong baby, why are you crying?" I asked as I was very worried.“Please tell me, why are you crying?"Whilst still crying. “Please I need to see you," she pleaded, her tears tearing up my heart.I was so concerned and worried. What could be the matter? I have to go and meet up with Sandra to find out what's wrong. She is all that really matters now. She had told me to meet her at her friend, Cynthia's place and that's exactly where I am going but first. I went back to meet Funke and Emeka. It seems they haven't been talking even though I was outside receiving a call all these while.“Funke I am so sorry I have to go. We will have to do this some other time. I have to leave now." I informed her in a rush as I was in a hurry to leave. “Wait, you can't just leave me here alone. Where are you going?" Funke didn't look pleased at all but what can I do?“I am sorry, something important just came up. I am sorry I have to leave and besides you are not going to be alone, Emeka is goin
.Miss Esther, visibly distressed, continued pacing in her sitting room as I poured out the chaotic events that led us to her doorstep. Her shock was palpable when I revealed that Sandra and I had taken the drastic step of running away.“You did what?” she exclaimed in disbelief, her eyes widening with a mix of concern and incredulity.“We had no other choice. Please let her stay here with you for the meantime,” I implored, desperation clinging to my voice.“This is crazy, Chris. I don't know if I am really able to do this. I mean, I could get arrested and charged for kidnapping,” Miss Esther expressed her genuine worry, and I understood the weight of the situation. My plea had thrown her into a dilemma that could have serious consequences for her.Sandra, silent until now, observed the exchange with a mix of anxiety and regret. The gravity of our actions seemed to settle upon her, and I couldn't help but question if my impulsive decision was indeed the right one. Doubts crept in, but
“I can't stay here, I have to go home. I am low on cash." I informed Miss Esther.“Alright but be careful," she said, her words soft and tender.“Yeah I will plus I don't think anyone is looking for me. Sandra's parents don't know that she is with me," I said, feeling safe and relaxed.“How can you be so sure? What if her friend out of fear told Sandra's parents that she was with you? Have you thought about that?" Miss Esther said and that kinda spiked my anxiety level.I thought about it and Cynthia is capable of doing something like that.That girl isn't someone I would put my trust in. For the fact that she is hitting on me despite claiming to be Sandra's best friend. She can do anything but I gotta go home to get some cash regardless.“Maybe." I said, my voice laced with a bit of doubt and worry.“Just be careful," she said, giving me a hug and was about to give me a kiss when..Sandra started rolling on the couch as she slept like she wanted to wake up and after a few seconds she
Chris POVIt has been raining cats and dogs for about 5 hours now and by the looks of things it does not seem it's goingto reduce any time soon, it's already5 minutes was 8AM. I guess I will be late for school today. I am already late just like how I have been coming late to school for the past weeks, but I guess this time I have a good excuse to give for my lateness.Who am I kidding, Mr Uche (aka Mr President) does not care if it's raining fire or lightning. Am sure he will still be taking notes of late comers, and he will be keeping an eye for me especially because I have become his regular customer this past weeksWe gave him the nickname Mr President because this guy knows how
Saturday went very fast, I played football with my guys, talked about girls and other stuff before I knew it, it was Sunday already. I went to church, came back. Slept and woke up around 9:45pm because I remembered there was one movie I wanted to watch. My friends have been talking a lot about the movie called AVENGERS and I want to see what the fuss was all about.Sliding the DVD disc into the DVD player and it started playing.I lay down on the couch comfortably watching the intriguing actions that were taking place in the movie. The movie was quite interesting and before I knew it, it was already 12:00AM.Jesus!!! I exclaimed.When will you learn Chris, I said to myself, if I arrive late to schoolagain Mr President will surely kill me. I don't want that besides I think it's time someone else starts to cry, and that should be his daughter. I quickly turned off the TV and set my wall clock alarm to 5:AM, the same as my phone alarm and went to
We both left for my seat, leaving Emeka hanging there, looking all hopeless and shocked as how I just came and took the girl he was trying to impress and woo.I would pay a million dollars to see the face Emeka made in a permanent portrait hang on my wall. it was just so priceless really but I am pretty sure he will not give up so easily. As I said earlier he is very competitive especially when it comes to girls, he always have this saying’ Every girl has a price, and he is every girl's dream. 'What a guy! So full of himself.“ So why did you leave your former school, didn't you like it there? " I asked her once we were seated.“ I
After having that weird conversation with Ayo I went back to my seat to meet Sandra.How can I possibly hurt someone as beautiful and lovely like Sandra, it's been more than a day but it feels as if I had known her my whole life, I could tell she had 5 smiles.1when she is smiling normally.2When she is smiling, something slyly just happened.
Tuesday morning.There was something about this morning the sky is not as bright as it should be this should be 6:00 am but everywhere is still dark, I check outside my window and outside was just as dark as the inside, I quickly turned on the lights in my room to check what's say the time on the wall clock.... But to my surprise it was only 1:00 am!I haven't slept at all, how could I sleep? when I was having nightmares about Sandra.There was one where she was flogging me with her father's cane. Mehn that was horrible, there is no way I can sleep again. I have to just stay awake till 6 am before taking my bath....The time passed slowly but finally it was 6 AM, I quickly went to take my shower, had breakfast and then rushed off to school.Due to hectic traffic on the road I didn't reach school on time I barely made it for assembly, I kept wishing no one had told Sandra any thing, when I finally got to school the prefects had already arranged stud
