"Mr. R?"
Why and what is this man doing here. I swear to god I'm not participating if he's here. I already suck at gym and with him watching. Hell. No.
"Hey Mr.R are you our new gym teacher?" Aliyah asks.
Obviously he is because our teacher was a lady. Unless she turned into him.
"Yes. Only for today though. Your teacher has suddenly fallen sick and no one else is available to be a supply so therefore they called me from next door" he says while looking, no cross that, staring at me.
Whew God bless my soul he's only here for today.
"Alright girls listen up. Some of you might know me and some not. For those of you who don't I'm Mr. R. Since I'm a supply for today we will be doing something easy. Which in our case will be basketball. Grab you balls and get into groups and play. It's a free period." He says.
YAHOOOOOOOOO WOOOOHOOOO free effing period. Best day of my life. Now I won't be embarrassing myself in front of him. Goodness. Halfway through the period my head starts throbbing like a bitch and I kind of feel dizzy.
"Dude lets go talk to Mr.R he might be a help." Aliyah suggests.
"Nah man I'm okay. Don't worry," I tell her.
I just stand in a corner for a moment to calm my dizziness down but it's getting out of hand. From the corner of my eye I see Mr.R and Aliyah coming. I'm slowing loosing my balance and the next thing I'm in Mr.R's arms. Then I totally blackout.
I swear to god whoever is splashing water on my face I'm going to kill them. I open my eyes and I'm in a car. What the eff. How the hell did I end up here? I slowly take in my surroundings and Mr.R is driving. Holy smokes.
"Uh um where are we going? And how did I end up here" I ask.
He looks at me, his face is tensed and worry in his eyes. Then he slowly takes me in and and relief washes over.
"You fainted in gym class Aila. I was taking you to the hospital,"
And then everything comes back to me. Dizziness and my head throbbing and me in Mr.R's arms. Shit.
"Oh yeah. Haha don't worry it's nothing, probably because I didn't eat anything today. Let's just go back to school." I try to play it cool. I really need to get out of this car.
"Why haven't you eaten anything? Skipping breakfast isn't healthy Aila" he says with clear concern in his voice.
"Yeah well breakfast is not my thing. I can't swallow anything down early in the morning" I tell him as a matter of factly.
He looks at me as if I've grown 2 heads.
"It's almost lunch time at school, so why not stop somewhere and get something to eat?" he doesn't ask, it's a don't-argue-with-me tone.
But I am me I'll argue like my life depends on it. And so I start.
"No no it's okay. Let's just go back to school I've lunch in my locker and I can't buy anything right now because I have no money on me," I'm about to say more but he stops me.
"Aila you just fainted I'm not listening to you"
Say what? First of you ain't my dad or my mom. Why the hell is this man so hell bent on making me eat food. Oh my what if he thinks I'm having money issues at home? No I mean I did tell him lunch is waiting for me at school. Soon we arrived at Ti- what the fuck. At Tim Hortons?! Drive through.
"Hi how may I help you sir" the lady asks.
"Hi, I would like two large ice caps and two boston cream donuts" he says.
Woah hold on a sec. Did I ever tell him what I usually get from timmies? Hmmm. Nope. Never. How the hell does he know that I order this every time I come here?
"Ummm Mr.R how do you know I would like this?" I ask him.
"Just a lucky guess" he says with a smile. Oh that smile.
Then we arrive at the window to pay and get our stuff. He puts on the radio and it's my favourite station. He's driving somewhere but I don't care. My favourite song is on and I've my favourite drink in my hand. I'm way too deep in my thoughts that I don't even realize we arrive at a lake. Okay what the actual fuxk. Why are we here. Like I'm wearing booty shorts and a tank and he brings me here. I already feel really awkward. I don't say anything he get out of the car and so do I. We walk together to wherever he's leading me too. I don't ask questions, I trust him. His presence sends signals of protection and safety. We come to a stop near a bench facing towards the water. With icecap still half full in my hand I sit down on the bench expecting Mr.R to also sit. I guess he has a different plan because he goes ahead to stand near the water. I put my icecap on the bench since no one is here and go and stand beside him.
"I love coming here, it's so peaceful. Right?" I start talking testing his mood.
"Same here" he says.
Same here? Is that all he has to say? He looks really tensed right now as if something's bothering him.
"I've brought you here for a reason. You might have some questions who's answers is with me" he says still looking at the water.
Oh god. Please no.
