the bus turned around and went back to the school. 
she was hoping that it would be him. 
him to be boarding the bus.

and to answer her prayers 
she saw him running through the school gates 
towards the bus.
sweat glistening on his forehead as he got onto the bus. 

'im sorry. we had a biology test and the teacher didn't- let us- go until it finished.'
he spoke completely out of breath

some other seniors probably his class, wanted to discuss something so we went further back. 
leaving his everyday seat alone. 

she felt disappointed but there was nothing she could do.
in the end, she wasn't in the position to be disappointed anyway.
