Jealousy Is Showing, Rocco.

It has been a few weeks since Rocco and Maya have seen each other.

Maya started avoiding him because she didn't want her heart to break again. Every time Rocco would try and talk to her, she would try and come up with an excuse to leave the conversation.

As Maya walked out of his office after they discussed a student, someone put his hand on her shoulder startling her.

"Do you think that he deserves to give you an explaination before you leave?", a voice asks her. She turned around to see that it was her cousin Hamza who was her Aunt Ayat and Uncle Naeem's son.

She was surprised to see him there as he had gone out of the country for almost two years.

"Asalam Aleikum. How are you doing? What are you doing here?" Maya asks, smiling happily and hugging him.

They both didn't know that Rocco was watching them more like glaring at them trying to control the anger and jealousy that he feels for the guy that was hugging his MayMay.

Who is that guy hugging her as if he knew her? Why can't she talk to me like that? Maybe even forgive me.

"I am here as a teacher. Well, history teacher and I am starting today. And I didn't even know that you would be here in this school", he tells her knowing what he meant by this school.

"Yeah, I started a few weeks ago and it wasn't my idea to come and work here. Jade suggested that I do whats best for me and that's what I did. And I am here teaching the same subject mamma did", she answers him while he was looking at Rocco who was trying to control his anger.

Hamza couldn't help but chuckle at the sight of him.

This is why Aunt Layla wanted me to accept the teaching position at this school. This will be fun as Rocco has never met me since I have seen his picture in the yearbook.

"What are you looking at?", Maya asks as she turned to see what he was looking at but thankfully Rocco had already left.

"Nothing, just wondering if you would have lunch with me?", he asks her knowing that Rocco would be there where they were going.

"Sure but is it too early for lunch? We still have half an hour left. We will go after the half and hour has gone, okay? Now, we can get back to class", she tells him. "And goodluck you will need it", she added leaving him to get to her class.

"Okay Hamza, this is it. He might or might not approach you. So just be prepared to say it", he gave himself a pep talk and started walking to his class.

Meanwhile, Rocco was fuming mad about what he saw. His MayMay hugging a man who wasn't him. But he needed to stay calm and not show his emotions to the student that was in front of him.

Ryan needed to control his anger toward the other students in his class. Rocco didn't want to be a bad example to Ryan.

"You don't need anger to express yourself. You can do it without being angry. Anger will make ypu lose a lot of opportunities in life. Put it aside and you will know what I am talking about. But for you are to help me arrange the files for a week. That's your punishment. I don't want to give ypu detention", Rocco tells him.

This surprises Ryan as he thought that he will be in big trouble for what had happened.

"You can go to your next class", he dismissed him.

But Rocco couldn't help but remember the guy who hugged his MayMay.

Yes, she is his and no one else.

Meanwhile, Hamza was trying to get on his nerves ever since he started working at the school. One time he would just go and hug Maya for no reason.
