"The clock is round,
The clock owns twelve,
Day and Night,
The clock is Time
And currently the only thing
Keeping me here today",
"Come on hurry up and be 3:00pm already" Alex mumbled to himself,
"Will you like to share what you were talking about with the class" Mr. Yeboah asked.
Alex was in a predicament, if he gets reported to the principal one more time he was going get expelled, he needed a way to get out of this situation without getting into trouble luckily it was 2:57pm, he just needed to delay
"Uhm, Sir, I was just..." Alex abruptly stopped just to delay time
"You were just?!" the teacher enquired, "You know, I-I-I just wanted to...2:58...
"I was just checking whether, you know...". "What" the teacher asked angrily "What do you know". Alex looked at the time........ 2:59pm
"Almost there" he shouted accidentally "Mister! you are starting to get on my nerves, report to the......
Just then the bell rang interrupted the teacher. Alex dashed out before the teacher finished his sentence. Alex is a 14-year-old with perfect black hair, deep blue eyes, and even though he didn't go to the gym he had the body of an athlete, and to make things worse he had white skin in an African country. Alex was an unusually smart student, in fact the smartest in his school even though all the teachers knew him as a trouble maker. On several occasions he just wanted to drop out of school but the orphanage doesn't allow it.
Yes, Alex lived in an orphanage, he knew it as his home ever since he had been 8 years old. And today, the orphanage was open for people to come in and start adopting. So, he was lost in thought as he walked outside the gate,
Just after he started walking out the gate, a sleek black Jaguar XF pulled up in front of him. The tinted back window slowly rolled down' showing the face of a woman who looked to be in her early thirties( or so he thought)
"Get in" the woman shouted. Alex looked over his shoulder to see if he was alone, when he realized the he was alone, he started panicking , he had watched too many spy movies to know what will happen next, he quickly turned to run when he felt a sharp sting at the back of his neck and passed out
Two hours later
Alex slowly regained consciousness and looked around, he was familiar with this place all too well
