Because Of Her.

88 | Bachelor's Night.

Originally, this chapter was around 18k, hence the reason behind my delay. When I sat down to edit it, I got so burned out because I wrote half of it in one sitting and then went straight to editing. It took me a whole day to edit it, so I thought you would get pretty bored and lose interest halfway through reading such a long chapter, so I ended up splitting the chapter.

This schedule is hella exhausting, not gonna lie. One week seems less when you have so much in your head that will happen in a particular chapter. The need to fit everything gets so strong that it makes me lose track of time. So yeah!! That sums up the reason behind the delay.

I hope you like this chapter. Up until now, this one really took my blood, sweat, and tears. (⁠༎ຶ⁠ ⁠෴⁠ ⁠༎ຶ⁠)

Warning —So much POV switching!!

"Did we miss the turn?" I ask Drake when we crossed the intersection as per map but yet we are not at school.

"I don't know it says we already at school."

"Where is the fucking school? This is just hotel over there."

"I don't know man; it says the—"

"Do you even know how to read fucking maps?"

"Shut the fuck up Dora, it's literally saying over here we are at destination. Look!" He pushes the phone screen on my face and I see that he is right.

"But then where is the—" I stop when I see there is no hotel mention in the map even though we are near one. I look outside the window and see the structure of grand wall, loaded with greenery. Creepers all over even reaching out to the board which reveals the school name.

New Horizon Senior Secondary School.

"That is a fucking school?" I say and Drake looks at where I am looking both of our jaw dropping.

"I thought it was a grand hotel."

"I thought the same." I say and turn the car towards the entrance seeing no one is coming out of the school.

"Are we early?" I wonder.

"This is a school?" Drake gapes as he bends his neck outside the window. The security guard on seeing us walks towards us, asking why we are here. Drake tells him we are here to pick up are known, they make him write the entry along with writing the number plate of car before he lets the gate open telling us to park inside.

"So children are not allowed to roam outside?" Drake wonders as we see cars piling ahead as some leaves the premises after taking whoever they are here for. The ground...fuck the parking lot is so big consist of school buses in which students are sitting while on other side those who comes on their own have their means of transportation.

"How fucking loaded they are to send their children here?" I murmur when I park near an area.

"Didn't Anna and Amelia also study from private school?" He asks and I remember Rose told me about it.

"This is really some fancy shit. Look at all these students and their rich ass dresses."

"Suddenly my high school seems like a joke in front of this."

"Their parking lot was my school."

"Come on, we gotta roam around for them. It's not like they know we will pick them up."

"I think I've a slight idea where we can find Shawn." I tell him as we get out. I pull my shirt down as I feel like its bunch up and ruffle my hair. This fucking humid state is really testing me and my black fabric. My dark hair is really all sweaty and I put on sunglasses before walking ahead.
