A light flashes on my face.
It was then I realized that whoever is there is taking a picture of me.
I was relieved and scared at the same time.

Relieved that the person wasn't holding a gun, just as I thought.

And Scared...scared because he's taking a picture of me🥶

Suddenly, he entered his car and drove off.
I panicked so much that I almost fell from the ladder.

Tonia gasped as I jumped into her house from the window.

"How long will it take you to stop being frightened whenever I come" I said.

She sighed and said nothing.

She sat on her reading desk and sighed again.

I studied her carefully "What's the problem?"
She said nothing.
"Are you uncomfortable with me staying here?" I probed.
Again, she said nothing.

"I can leave if you want"

No answer.

I started walking out. Still she said nothing.

I turned and stare at her "Could you please talk to me"

She didn't even look at me.

"Goodnight" I said and hopped out of the window.

As I walked back to my hostel I noticed I was crying and I don't know why.

The slap was loud. It reverberated in my ear causing a resonating sound.
The second one landed directly on my cheek, my teeth shook.
The third one was on my ear again.

She was about giving me the fourth, when Mrs Orwell rushed to the bathroom.

"What the hell is going on here?" She asked.

She stared at Elizabeth naked and foamy body, then she stared at me, half naked, with full erection.

"Beth?  Smith?" She surreptitiously at the both of us.

It was the most awkward moment of my life.

Elizabeth was still glaring at me.

Then suddenly, she took her towel and left the bathroom with anger.

Mrs Orwell gave me a long gaze before finally following her daughter; Elizabeth.

Alone, I slammed my fist on the bathroom wall "Gosh, I fucked up"

As I left the bathroom, I heard Elizabeth yelling at her mother.

"Mum, if you don't chase that guy out if this house, I swear I'm gonna leave and if I leave, I'll never come back."

Mrs Orwell said something which I didn't hear.

Then Elizabeth yelled again "He tried to rape me for God's sake.!"

I couldn't stand to hear anymore. I rushed to my room.
...................
The next morning, I hurried off to school as early as 5am.

No one was in the class so I sat alone and busied myself with my laptop.

The first person to arrive came around 8:25am. More than three hours since I came.

"Hello Jimi" The girl waved at me.
