We stand in silence, with my head bowed down.
"Bro I can't believe Miss V canceled our trip."
We lift our heads instantly after hear a voice coming in our direction.
"Hide," I whisper to her and she ducks behind a wide tree.
The voices sound closer and closer until I see two grade 9 boys wearing the rugby training kit.
"Wussupp Lolly." one of the boys say giving me a fist bump and the other a high five.
"Sure sure boys."
I wait till they've turned around the corner and I help Cuma up from behind the tree.
"I should get going, my mom's probably looking for me."
"Yeah.....right. Bye." I say as she walks away waving at me.

5 weeks later; month of May
{Friday}
It is the last day of our exams and after this we're on a going on a school break but as for me, I'll be shipped to the UK.
Cusses at that thought.
We finished writing hours ago and now we're in our homeroom classes, waiting for the bell to ring for 12 o'clock.
Today, only Physics and Economic students were writing, Cuma does take any of those subjects so she didn't come to school.
Learners chat away about their holiday destinations, laughing and creating a hell of a noise while I read a novel Cuma sent me last night.
Pests.
"Im gonna miss you so much!" Naomi says behind me.
"I'm gonna miss you more my friend. But atleast your going to Barcelona for your HOLIDAYSSS! " Laurie says replies. And they both squeal really loud making me take off my AirPod Max.
Yes I'm listening to music and the volume is on 100, but I can still hear their conversation.
I sigh then turn my chair to them.
"Ladies, do you mind keeping it down. I'm trying to read." I flash my IPhone 14 pro max in their faces.
They look at each other then giggle. I give them a death stare and them stop and turn around.
***Bell rings***
Thank goodness.
I roll my eyes at them and I grab my backpack and I walk out.
"We're sorry Missssster." they shout from their seats. I shake my head at them and I walk out the door.
"Bafo." Siya greets taking my under his arms.
"Don't be late for my birthday dinner."
I chew on gum. "Wouldn't miss it for the world. It could be your last birthday party with me."
"Eish, I still can't believe your parents are actually doing this."
"It's too late for that, my flight is in the next 3 days. There's no turning back."
We walk in silence until school gate, being saluted and and he dab each other up before going to our drivers.

"Get uppp! How long will you keep crying yourself to sleep. We've got a dinner to attend." Mpumi says pulling me up from my bed.
I groan.
"There's no point in going. Next thing you know there's a picture of us going viral on Twitter."
Mpumi turned to the mirror next to the bed, rolling her eyes while applying lipgloss. Then after a minute she turns back to me.
"You have 5 minutes to get dressed." she clocks her head with a stinky smile.
I throw myself back onto the bed and next thing you know I'm dressed in a black tight dress with black Versace strap heels.
The theme is Black tie with a touch of silver.
Accessories that I added a silver necklace that matches with a bracelet I'm wearing and a small side bag.
"How did you convince me to go to this stupid party." I ask applying brown lip liner on my lips, in the uber.
"Hey! It's not a stupid party. Remember, this is Siya's birthday celebration." she says putting emphasis on Siya.
"A pathetic one that I shouldn't be going to."
"Yazi ntoni, I'm not going to listen to your negative thoughts. I'm going to have a good time tonight with my man." she says closing her eyes as if meditating on her last sentence.
The uber drops us off at Sandton and we split up, Muni rushes to get Siya his watch from Swavorski while I went to go get his favorite protein bars and white roses. The roses and watch were from Muni and I got him.....protein bars. A day doesn't go by with out Siya munching on a— protein bar.
Yeah, protein bars . Don't judge I'm really bad at gifts. But I'm sure do know how to write a killer note to go along with the trashy gift.
Muni and I meet at Nelson Mandela Square and we them in one big gift bag.
