HEY CRUSH!!!!

Chapter 14

                       

Ayrah's POV

It's 2days already i have been avoiding Imam because i want him to feel what i felt when he was ignoring me...

I am in cloud 9 though because omg he said he love me and all those text message oh God can't stop reading them..

The day he professed i was happy but alittle sad at thesame time,,he knew all along who i was but still treated me that way,i was torn between wanting to tell him everything is okay and wanting him to feel what i felt so i called my best friend aysha...

She was the one that told me to ignore his calls and block him on whatsapp i didn't want to do that but she slept at my house that day so i had no option but to do as she says....And in school when ihsaana said he was looking for me aysha told me to leave the school and switch off my phone even though i so badly want to see him,in her words "kidan garashi kadan den tomorrow u should go and talk things out",,i reluctantly agreed but deep down i want nothing but to go to him...

The next day we were having lunch at the school market,Anty rahma was showing-us  videos of her niece janaan,,we were all laughing when suddenly her phone rang,,it was industrial chemistry class rep khareema she picked and said "salam" "Wslm rahma ashe malam Imam is sick fa,we have a class with him today but he is absent,so i called his line and his sister picked and said he is in the hospital"  "eyyah wish him quick recovery i was supposed to go and collect our assignment script but i forgot that's y i didn't know but why are you telling me sef"Anty rahma asked smiling "ke gulma wlh"they both laughed and said their goodbyes...

Something just washed over me like cold water i couldn't say anything imam dina is sick ya Allah,,should i call him? i was thinking of so many things but nothing is tallying up with my though...

I stood up abruptly wanting nothing but to leave that place and cry "ayrah where are you going"mustapha asked concern laced in his voice i looked at him and said "i just remember that umma sent me to unguwan sarki and i don't want to be late bye"i hurriedly left the place i know they will pay for my lunch so i have no worry...

When i was out of sight i ran to a nearby empty class and cried my eyes out i just pray Imam is not sick because of me and i pray it's not serious,,i love him so much wollah,,now that i know he does too why is all this happening??i hate myself for not waiting to hear what he had to say,,,at the back of mind i am angry with aysha she made me block him but i can't help but think of the fact that she did all that for my own good....

I decided to stop wallowing in self loot and focus on the matter at hand....I stood up to leave the class making my way home,,on the way back i called aysha and told her Imam is sick and i am unblocking him so she should not say anything,,she laughed and said "naji din,go home kinji don't call him today leave it till tomorrow then u surprise him at his office" "what if he is seriously sick and can't make it to school tomorrow"i asked on the verge of tears "don't worry i know someone that knows him,i will ask for you" she said "who is that send the persons number please"i said pleadingly "nooooo bye"and just like that she hanged up i stared at the phone for some seconds thinking so hard of what she just said "who is that person?"i asked no one in particular,,with so many questions in my head and nobody to give me answer i reached home.....

"I am back Umma"i yelled for my mom to hear she is at the other side of the house so she poked her head from a corner and smiled "u are back early today lafiya dai ko?" "Fyn umma i need rest that's all,where is sayyid?" I asked of my younger brother "he just left for islamiyya"she replied "okay"i replied back and went straight to my room i picked my phone and put it inside my wardrobe because if i am seeing it i know i will call Imam for sure...

Around 9:30pm aysha called me from umma's phone she told me he was discharged from the hospital and that he is fine and would come to school tomorrow i was literally happy ,,i asked her where she got the information from but she laughed and said "nobody babygirl goodnight"i opened my mouth to argue but the yeye girl hanged up againnnnnn.....

I was happy with the information so i slept early wanting nothing but for me to open my eyes and see me Imam......

The next morning i got dressed in a dark blue abaya which fitted my chubby body i looked at the mirror and smile 😃 ooooooohhhhhh i look gooooddddd,i put on my signature lip gloss and was on my way out when Umma called for me i entered her room  "salam good morning Umma" i greeted her "Wslm  morning ayrah i have something to discuss but i see u are ready for school" she said while looking at me "when u get back kizo Ina nemanki" i answered with "okay bye"

Upon arriving at school i went straight to imam's office building,, not many student were in school because it still early,I pressed the handle on the door and pushed but it is locked i sighed loudly and rest my back on the wall waiting for him to arrive..it didn't take long when i heard footsteps i knew it was him so i looked up and yeah he was staring at me too i smiled and said "Hey"
