JOE'S POV :
Dad I am all done I said standing up from the dining chair as I straightened my shirt with my palms trying to smoothen it.
Ok I will just go grab my car keys he said standing up as he rushes upstairs to grab a hold of his keys
Let's go he said walking down the stairs in less than 3 minutes
It was already the first Sunday of a new month and as usual for each Sunday at Ivory hills, we do have a visiting day which means each student gets to have his relatives ,parents and loved ones visit them also returning students get to coke back to school immediately on that Sunday. It took me almost 2 months to resume school but well ivory hills I am so here we go.
......................
Bye Dad I said hugging him tight in the car before slamming the door shut as I place my blazer on my body with my bag on my shoulder
My Guardian Mr John helped with my provison by calling some fellow junior students to help carry them to my hostel Flora house ( Maroon house) . I was in SS1 so at least i had that privilege as a senior already .
There were different students each with their relatives and loved ones around them I smiled as I greeted those I walked past. Upon reaching my room ,I noticed the door was slightly open so I peeped a bit only to find a figure that kept me in shock.
I saw a bald girl with only a breast standing Infront of a mirror as she buttoned her shirt . Upon seeing me she quickly turned looking at me .
Ermmm...sorry I must have mistaken my room for someone else's I said trying to make an excuse but then I looked up and I saw Room 4 which clearly is my room then I looked back again at the girl this time around with a puzzled looked
Joe right? She asked a bit surprised
Hi I'm Yuna , your new roommate she said
Oh hi i responded back in a friendly manner
Please come in why are you still standing by the door ? she said dragging me into the room
I found it hard to keep a normal face like I didn't just see what I just saw so I forced a smile on my face as I sat on the bed.
You don't have to force a smile on your face you know she said adjusting her neck tie
I have cancer she continued
Which is why I got a chemotherapy on my left breast leaving me with one breast, my right breast also my bald head and yes it's that bad she added
This time I felt so bad that I began sympathizing with her through looks
She laughed
Now you don't have to feel bad ,apart from you and My other friend Nasreen you two are the only two that made me feel okay to be sincere with you
Upon mentioning that name I felt a hint of familiarity somewhere like I have heard someone mention the name Nasreen before
Here let me show you something she said placing my hand on her left side.
It was totally empty and it made me open my eyes wide in shock before I retracted my hand
I'm... I'm..I really am sorry I said stammering feeling a bit ashamed of my behavior
It's okay she only smiled before standing up to pull out a wig from her luggage as she placed it on her head firmly.
There we go .How do I look? she said twirling in the room.
I gave a thumbs up indicating she looked great
She giggled out loud showing her perfect white tooth.
Speaking of great Yuna was the most beautiful girl I have ever seen in Ivory Hills, she was tall, slender in shape ,had a pointy nose , pink lips and ofcourse one could tell she was an interracial (African and Asian).
I will be heading off to the auditorium for the visiting day . Would you accompany me ? She said
I don't really think so I have this banging headache which I would really love to calm down after taking a quick nap I said
Sure ,I have pain killers in the locker next to my luggage ,take two pills . There's a bag of bottle water at the last locker below.I will be out now she said closing the door from behind.
I looked at the now closed door smiling brightly as I walked up to the lockers and took the medicines before falling into a deep slumber.
Next thing i woke up to was the aroma of delicious food. It was the aroma of my favorite ( porridge). I opened my eyes only to find a well decorated plate with porridge beef, an iced hibiscus drink with small chops placed on our room's table with a little pink letter note that has " Eat well roomie "written on it .
I smiled for the umpteenth time today before giggling as I sat on the sit and dished out on the food.
I could hear the sound of water being splashed in the bathroom so I knew she was in bathing. I eat to my satisfaction until I decided to sit back on the bed and wait for my new roommate to come out of the bathroom.
