"I'll come with Hakim" I told mum when we got outside the mortuary.

"Are sure honey?"she asks with a concerned look.

"Yes mom",she smile and looked at Hakim who was behind me.

"Bring her home safe okay?"

"I will ma"

"Thank you"she smiled at us and walked out

"Where do you wanna go?"Hakim asked as we entered his black SUV.

"anywhere but my house"I said as I put my seatbelt.

He drove to the main park in silence. As if he read my mind. I loved to go to the park at times like this. It was where I felt better.

We came down and began walking to the grass area.

"Why didn't you want to go home?"he asked.

"If I did,I'd cry. I'm tired of crying"I forced a smile.

We kept walking in silence,and I admired the beautiful park,it had few kids playing and their parents pursuing them. I saw two girls running and laughing and it reminded me of Emerald as I smiled at the thought.

"We punctured Mr Gibbs ass" I heard Hakim say.

"Seriously?"

"Yaaa,,yesterday" he laughs as I join him.

Mr gibbs was a fat ass man...really he had a fat ass. We wondered whether he put an ass pad or something. Students like Hakim had a good plan of popping the ass, to know whether it was fake or not.

"Was it fake?"I ask engrossed in laughter.

"It made a pop sound"he shrugged.

I could only imagine. The thought of them popping his ass was hilarious.

"My days,you guys are devils"I say trying to catch my breath.

"In disguise"he winked.

"In disguise"I nod with a big smile.

We got to the edge of the grass and sat down. From there you could see the ocean. How beautiful the sight was.

"I haven't laughed in a long time you know...it feels like ages"I say breaking the silence.

"I make you laugh?"he asks

"Yea...yea you do"I smile at him.

We both starred at each other and began to laugh again. Why we were laughing? I didn't know.

"You still look weird when you laugh"he says laughing.

"Am still cute"

"You wish"

I slap his chest.

"Ouch"

"Does it hurt?"

"Naaa...nothing hurts me"

I chuckle. I missed this a lot. I missed laughing at his silly jokes,hitting him hard then he boasts about his being strong. Hakim made me feel better. He wasn't the type of friend to remind you of your problems and start to sympathize with you. He always had a way of filling the environment with positivity. I love him a lot.

"What would I do without you?" I sigh.

"You'd have a boyfriend"he laughs.

"Silly"I slap his arm.

"Don't cry when I start hitting you" he says rubbing his arm.

"Just say it hurt you"I say in a 'duh' manner
