MY TEACHER

06

The ringing of my phone woke me up, searching for my phone I answered the call rubbing my eyes. It's morning already?.

"Am here" I heard a familiar voice and I woke up fully then.

Christian.

I checked the time 12:45am.

"Ok I'll come outside" I tell him and he hangs up.

Damn.

I put on a huge hoodie that cover my nightgown. I rinsed my mouth with mouth wash then washed my face to get rid of my sleepy eyes.

I pulled the grills silently as possible letting myself out.

His car is parked on the first lane to my yard.

I got to the car and he let me inside.

"Hey" I greeted and he has his head straight ahead.

"Are you pregnant" he asked not wasting any time.

Pregnant?

"No I'm not pregnant" I said with a small chuckle.

"So what did you call me for" he asked in a stiff tone shrugging his shoulders.

What's up with his attitude.

"Jeez your attitude" I called him out and I heard a long sigh.

"Mi nuh come here fi argue with you so ask or tell me what you're saying because I don't got all night" he said in a hostile tone.

"What's your problem?" I looked over at him and he's already peering at me.

He didn't say anything.

I don't even want to bother ask him anything. This whole idea was stupid anyways. What would I say...how are you?
..its obvious he's not in his best mood.

"You know what..don't bother am sorry I wasted your time" I reached to open the door but I soon hear it locked.

He let out a humourless chuckle.

"Hailey tell me what you were gonna ask"

"It doesn't matter... it was stupid anyways" I said hoping he'll just let me out now so I could go cry myself to sleep.

"Tell me" he insisted.

"I just...I just wanted to ask how are you" I said not meeting his eyes. He's probably laughing at me in his head.

"I'm good, how are you" I heard him say and I rolled my eyes.

"Well you didn't look like yourself from that night" I told him looking at him and as expected his eyes were on me.

"What is looking like myself?" He asked and I gave him a deadpan look.

"Your normal look..you looked sad or rather perplexed I don't know which" I said and the more I'm looking at his perfect face the more I fall deeper. It's hard to read him sometimes.

"Why"

"Why what" I asked confused

"Why do you care" he snickered.

I shrugged.

"My father died..and you left me" he said and I gasped softly.

"Christian!" I exclaimed. I was not expecting to hear that news.

"I'm so sorry for you loss...my condolences goes out to you and your family" I said in a remorseful tone. I knew how how it felt to loose a parent.

"yeah it's good" he said brushing it off. It's obviously
