"You still don't recognize me" the voice was singing in my head and from a distance I saw myself staring at the boy I was supposed to recognize .
He looked like he was holding back tears and when I reached out to hold his hand he moved backwards. I felt different feelings then.
But most of all, he had broken my heart with that treatment and nothing could make me change my sudden belief. I didn't care anymore.
I stood still and didn't budge when he faded into the darkness. Though in my silent anger a tear escaped my eye.
"Is it a THING now?" Folake shouted in my ear after she found out I was not listening to her ramble on history assignment. I smiled sheepishly.
"Forgive me, my lady." I muttered. She rolled her two eyes,smiled still looking at me.
"What?"
"No, you what? You've got that weird dreamy look in your that I haven't seen in ages..so spill it." She closed the locker with a bang like she was trying to intimidate me.
"Um, seriously it's nothing I know that for sure" I said to myself more than her. She nodded and I shrugged. We went to the class and sat in our seats, me avoiding whatever look that she keeps giving me.
"Ugh, Gina give me one of those popsicles you put in your bag, I need a distraction to not fall asleep." Folake whispered from her seat which was next to mine.
I chuckled silently and handed it to her. I had been attentive half of the lesson until I began thinking of the possibilities of seeing Gaius before lunch.
I looked sideways and saw my best friend dozing and snoozing like never before. And half her mouth was opened. Ooh what a sight to treasure! I wished to capture the moment instead I shoved a popsicle in her mouth. She immediately started coughing loudly and swearing causing the whole class to gain full attention on both of us.
I shifted uncomfortably to my seat.
"Since the both of you have decided to interrupt my lesson which makes no sense to you then you should take a trip to the principal's office" the language teacher said his voice stricter than ever.
Some students snickered and others laughed as we walked to the out of the class.
Folake gave me a menancing look. In fact, if looks could kill I'd be three meters below the ground. I pretend to not see her anger.
"Why did you do that? " She demanded and I found this cute and scary at the same time.
"I have no reason."
"Oh you do, Mrs Demon!"
I scoffed at that. Yeah, I knew I was kinda at fault here but I just couldn't resist the temptation of putting that into her mouth. I felt kinda remorse but no way would I let her know that.
"Well, expect my trick then." She smirked at me.
The principal was a bald strict man who stared daggers at us as we entered his office. I wouldn't be surprised if he was involved in a murder case. His looks definitely looked like it.
There was an ackward silence for five minutes and the fact he was tapping his little finger repeatedly on his desk made the case worse.
"You girls have been disturbing class," he said in a monotone voice.
"Why?"
I almost laughed. He must be freaking kidding me. He doesn't know why we disturb in class. Because its hella boring. Boring boring boring borin.
"Okay Gina, so Folake why do you disturb in class." Bald said.
Did I just say that outloud? Does that even happen?!
My best friend was actually quivering in anger or fear I couldn't tell. She was in this mess because of me. And her parents were stricter than mine. She didn't want them to be involved.
"It was a prank Gina played on me, I dont necessarily find classes boring." If I didn't know Folake before this, I would have called her a bitch for lying and not saying the entire truth but we played like this. She had to protect herself in this situation so opting the fact that she does find it boring wasn't necessary.
Although I didn't feel too good being l only bad kid and bully.
"Well said Folake we both know she is capable of doing that, he said looking at me.
"It wouldn't be late to change classes, Gina."
I looked dumbfounded. Changing classes?
"Mr Bayo,I r-really dont think..."
"Yes it is necessary, your parents would be informed about the change and your disinterest in Arts Class."
MY PARENTS! Fuck this is going all bad.
I looked over at Folake and I saw she had a hand over her mouth. Shock filled her face.
I looked over at Mr Bayo but he had gone back to his writing and like before paying no attention to us.
I tried very hard to show how much this announcement did not affect me and walked out of the office.
"Gina!" My best friend called after me but I found myself running and heading to the girls toilet.
Mission was almost complete until I bumped into another human and fell down immediately.
"You weren't watching where you were going! " The human accused.
"Duh that makes two of us!" I said accusingly.
"Another sin of humanity! ....Gaius?!" I looked at him weirdly when I found out he was the human.
"Hey Gina" he said with a half wave.
He is really here.
I hate this...
Maybe if I pretend a faint he would go away...
Would he?
