CLAIRE AND DIANA

BURDENED FAVORS.

CHAPTER NINE,"Why did you help me?" Clair looked up to Luan."Because of the brownie you offered. As I said earlier today, I don't keep the burdened favors." Said Luan without looking back.Clair's eyes seemed as if she was studying Luan from behind. He was a charming guy with brown eyes, the same as honey. His Black silky hair shone under the bright sunlight in the hallway, before she could study more, they reached the table. Luan took out the chair to sit back but as soon as he lowered his body to sit, the bell rang. Clair who had unfinished lunch took a long breath in and said: "I guess I'll have to eat on the way". Diana took a sharp look at her and remained quiet.The break was over. Everyone was headed towards the classroom Clair who couldn't finish her lunch was walking while eating the brownies she bought. The four of them walked toward the classroom in complete silence. Aiden felt weird for not understanding earlier, to break the silence he said."Oh, so you were the one who made those brownies?". While touching the back of his head and grinning.Clair nodded her head as she looked at Aiden and said "I watched a tutorial".Before Aiden could open his mouth again Diana jumped in front of Clair out of excitement and her grey eyes were full of happiness. "OH GOD! SO YOU ARE TELLING ME THAT YOU WORKED OUT HARD TO FEED US". The two boys were stunned to speak."No actually what happened was, I was home alone and hungry when I saw the recipe book on the cupboard, And then when I looked through the book I found the easiest recipe ever known. So I decided to make it for myself and when I took the first bite of it, it was so good that I couldn't resist but to make it for you". Said Clair in one breath and winked at Diana.Diana replied "AAA!!! I will make something for you tomorrow. You just wait". And ran into the class. Luan and Aiden hurried to class as well. for Clair only because she had to finish her lunch he walked slow and was late for the class. As she was entering class she saw everyone standing. The teacher was at the back scolding some backbenchers and everyone was paying attention to that. Clair sneakily rushed over to her seat and stood as if she had been present there since the beginning.The teacher walked to the front and said "Does anyone else have issues with it?" with his eyebrows twitching. And made an eye contact with Clair. The teacher was confused and glared at her and later said."No one does? That's good. You Clair come here and write your name on the first sheet" pointed at a folder on the teacher's desk. Clair had no clue of what she was getting into.She walked to the desk and took the sheet. Wrote her name on it and showed that to the teacher. The teacher nodded his head and told Clair "Thank you, go back to your seat and sit." Clair followed his commands because she had no other options.When she sat down the teacher yelled. And said:"Look!! What a respectful student she is. Anyway, now I'm going to make teams since I have chosen team leaders. Derrick Smith, Eva Robbinson, Clair Briar, Nia Cole, Kevin Elwood, Aaron Heron, and last Maltida Owens. All seven of you make a group of four so that all of your twenty-eight classmates are included. Now come and get the forms from me and right down the names of your group mates with their consent and submit me by the end of the day". Poor Clair who didn't know what the hell was going on in her class ended up becoming team leader, she took the form, Wrote her name and Diana's, and went blank, The teacher had left one of the girls came to Luan and said: "What's your student I'd Luan?". Luan looked at her a grasped "Oh sorry but I have already joined Clair Bri-" he was midway to his sentence when the girl didn't hesitate to ask Aiden "Aiden you are joining me then" with a smile on her cheeks "Oh no Maltida, Luan is my oxygen and I can't join without him so I'm joining Clair too." On the other hand Diana received invitations from everyone but Maltida Owens. Clair felt she was being watched so when she looked around there was no one Aiden leaned towards Clair and said "My full name is Aiden Lorenzo and Luan's is Luan Warner, and my Student I'd is XXX-XXXX " and he grabbed Luan by his shoulder and said tell her your student I'd. Luan told her his student ID as well, when Clair was done she asked the two of them since Diana was busy rejecting invitations. "What is happening??" Clair looked tensed.Both Luan and Aiden looked at each other in disbelief, They both were stunned to speak
