"Ok, head over to the dining table, I'll bring your food over there"
They do as they are told
"Where's Benjamin, Joshua and Kelvin?" Bethany asks
"Benjamin went out to play, Josh and kel just left and said they'll be back "
Bethany lowers her head, preparing to start eating her late breakfast alongside Angel
"Ok, I guess they're free of their shackles now that mom's gone" Bethany jokes with a tint of laughter
"Yes, Madam is quite strict with you guys, she's just worried that's all"
"I hope you're right"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
After breakfast, Angel and Bethany go to study in Bethany's room, both seated on Bethany's study-table.
"So, which grade are you in Angel?"
"Umm.....well, I'm in Grade 9, what about you Bethany"
" I'm in Grade 11" Bethany says, voice full of boast
" How come when we are of the same age?"
" Nothing much, just that I started school earlier that others and the teachers say I'm smart enough to be in that Grade"
" Oh..... lucky you, then teach me how to solve these confusing simultaneous equations madam Bethany"
" Ok "
Bethany taught Angel and also told her to polish up her handwriting because it looked like it was written by a duck's feet, she was having a hard time deciphering What she wrote; be it words or numbers were unrecognisable.
Soon the Day came to an end and it was time for Mrs Angel and Angel to head to their respective residence
"So, I won't see Angel for the whole of next week?" Bethany asks Mrs Angel
"Yes, just focus on your tests and you won't even notice she's gone, besides, once you guys close and are on holiday... You can see her everyday" replies Mrs Angel
" Can't she stay over today?, You can get her tomorrow since Monday is a school day and her school's probably far from here, you can get her tomorrow... "
" What about Church? We go to church early in the morning, I won't have time to come by here"
" She won't die if she skips one Sunday"
Mrs Angel, seeing how Stubborn Bethany is, uses her soothing voice to compromise with her
" No Bethany, you'll be fine even without her, I mean you've made it till today without her haven't you? So just wait for schools to close, ok Darling?"
Bethany, seeing that she can't win, eventually sighs, a sign of giving up
"Ok, I'll see you next week Angel!, Don't forget me!"
Angel smiles, waving goodbye
"I won't!"
'how can I?'It was only after they left did Bethany realize........................
"Damnit, I forgot to get a goodbye Hug..."
