Chapter 5
Thoughts in bold and/or italics.
Anika's POV
Watching the students fill up the classroom, I saw Sam and Scarlett, so I waved them over.
"Guys come over here! I saved you some seats."
"OMFG! Is that Christian!? Fuck he looks better than I remembered" Scarlett squealed.
"He's not that good-looking" Sam said as he had a frown on his face
"Ooh someone's jealous!" Scarlett said
"Oi quieten down a class is about to start, and you know me I need to write everything down from start to end."
Christian Mr Raves POV
As I watched the class fill up, I noticed how Anika was still friends with Sam and Scarlett
I couldn't help but overhear their conversation and smile at least I know that Anika has friends looking out for her.
"Ok class as you can tell I'm not Mrs Oceans. Anyways I'm going to be taken to her spot as she has retired and will no longer be working here. I'm Mr Rave, and I worked here a couple of years ago practising to become a teacher, so I'm technically new here."
"So since I'm kinda new here and it's only our first day back, I was wondering if you want to play a quick game to get to know each other? All you have to do is ask me a question about myself, and I'll answer it but nothing too personal!"
As in queue, all the hands went flying up but mostly the girls.
"You with the blonde hair" urgh she looks like a Barbie doll does every school have one of them!? "Hi, sir, my name is Zoe Abide. My question to you is... are you single?" I think I'm going to throw up URGHH!
"Not that it's got anything to do with you, Miss Abide, but yes I am."
"Fuck why'd I say that for now all these girls/boys won't leave me alone!"
"Ok next question!" Choosing Sam.
"Hey sir I was just wondering if you remembered me."
"Of course I do Sam how could I forget you, Scarlett and Anika?" I said which made Ani look up and smile at me, I winked at her, and she started blushing.
"Okay, the class you've got five minutes left, so I'll let you pack up early and leave."
Anika's POV:
"Bye Christian, I mean Mr Rave!" I said getting ready to leave
"Bye Anika, and just call me Christian when nobody's around," He said
(Skip the journey home)
" Assalam walekum dad"(greetings in Arabic)
"Wa-Alaikum-Salaam beti."
"Dad if you need me, I'll be in my room. I've got some artwork I need to be catching up on."
Finally, I'm finished with my artwork for the time being. Now I can write in my diary. (fun fact I actually write in a diary every day)

Life is full of unexpected surprises.
Dear Diary,
"Would you believe me if I told you Christian came back? Exactly even I wouldn't!
I guess things are starting to get better for me, but who' am I kidding? I'm the definition of bad luck!
When I got to the school I needed the toilet, as always there was a massive line, so I had to wait. Me being me I might have sworn a little, and a stupid teacher tried to tell me off, but I knew I remembered the voice from somewhere and guess what? It was Christian! Yep, you heard me! Anyways I might have told him what's been happening with me. I know I know I shouldn't have told him, but it's been going on too long, and I'm tired of it. He won't say anything I trust him.
There's something happening diary, but I know what it is. There's something different about us (me and Christian), but I can't quite put my finger on it
I'll see you tomorrow diary.
Anika Ahmed.
