There's Something About Him

Love me like you love him

Okay guys, the quiz begins now, remember it's not necessary to answer the questions, if you don't know the answers you can just leave but you will be disqualified" the dean announced while we were situated in arranged seats, given small notepads which had pre written questions and pens attached to them. Then we started answering the questions given.

I guess you are wondering how we got there....
Well it started this morning where we each got an email from the dean telling us there will be a tour today, so we all got ready and started going out.
That's when I received a text from Ayanda before I left...

Ayanda: there is going to be a quiz about the tour, goodluck xoxo.

"What?" I asked out loud staring at the message. Hakeem came closer to me, I quickly put my phone away, he then eyed me quizzical
"What's going on?" He asked, he was wearing a black short sleeved shirt with khaki trousers paired with simple black shoes.
"Nothing, just pay attention to the tour today it might be part of the competition" I said eyeing both Hakeem and Ibrahim
" uh huh, and you know this how?" Hakeem asked raising a brow.
" it's just a feeling, and I said it might be part of the competition " I said taking my bag avoiding his stare.
" Come on guys we are going to be late" Ibrahim announced he was already at the door, one hand holding it ajar. I was the first to get out followed by them. We arrived at the entrance of the hotel where to SUVs where waiting for us, most of the students were already there including the dean, who when he saw that we have all arrived announced.
" you know the drill, half this car and half to the car upfront, now get in and enjoy the tour, Mr Salim will accompany you and I will meet you all here when you return. Remember to have fun" he said then turned to leave. We all started boarding the SUVs,
" Ibrahim, wait for me " It was Tanya, pushing through the crowd to reach Ibra, who was standing beside me and Hakeem.

" great, we will be riding with the all season bitch" Hakeem said
"Hakeem!!" I scolded, he just rolled his eyes and tugged my wrist ushering me to enter the car, where Hakeem and I sat, Ibrahim and Tanya came to seat behind us.
" Hi Saul and Hakeem, it's a good morning right " she said as she sat down clinging to Ibrahim's hand like a life line. We just smiled at her.
" Ibrahim I missed you bunny, it's been so lonely without you" she cooed loud for us to here
"I-I missed you too" Ibra said. Hakeem snickered at the reply, I gave him a slight shove.
" and you look really good today, Saul don't you think Ibrahim looks good today?" She asked
" yeah, he does" I answered without looking back at her, I held on Hakeem's hand tighter
"Hey Tanya, your mouth is moving a lot like a rat, yapa yapa yapa! Shut it please, we are trying to listen to the tour guide" Hakeem said loudly, which made the whole car burst out laughing.
"Stop it Hakeem" I said in between laughs, he smiled. The ordeal worked because Tanya kept quiet for the whole ride.

Johannesburg was a sight of art, culture and modern life, we went to many beautiful place, we even went to the beach and ate the local sea food. We even toured to the local markets, which sold different products, Hakeem bought me a hand made bracelet.
"Where did you get rands?" I asked as he put it on my wrist.
"Did you know they have a bureau de change in the hotel? Esma sent me some cash so I withdrew them in rands, there, it looks good on you" he finished smiling at me, I smiled back then looked at the bracelet, it was beautiful it had little dangling metal stars that reflected the light beautifully.
After the market, we went to a restaurant nearby and they fed us different kinds of cuisine both local and international. All was well until Tanya puke all over the place even on Ibrahim's shirt.
Some girls who were with us came to help and took Tanya to the restroom, leaving Ibrahim standing there trying to clean himself up with a tissue. Hakeem got up.
" Am going to help him, be right back" He said then approached Ibrahim still scrubbing the vomit out.

Hakeem's POV
I approached him with a smile on my face, not that I really cared, but I could see the concern on Saul's face and I didn't like to see that, so here I am.
" hello damsel in distress I see you are in need of a knight in shinning armor" I said standing infront of him careful not to step in the vomit.
" Please Hakeem, not now" He said not looking at me just standing there scrubbing away furiously.
"I.." I wanted to talk but he cut me off
"Please" he begged again, I could see desperation in his eyes, I sighed then took his hand and led him to the men's restroom.
When we reached there I took out my phone then texted Saul.
