Angel waiting to go home .

Chapter 23

It's about 11 in the morning , I quickly do my bed , change out my pyjamas and do my chores , and by the time I'm done it's already past 12 . Before I decide to take a bath, I text Lucky to confirm if we're still meeting up , he confirms it and also informs me that I should be done before three. After that , I decide to make some food then take a bath , I don't even try to put an effort in my outfit so I wear my grey sweatpants and a black top with my black sneakers , I style my hair in a bun and by the time I'm done Lucky is already at the corner telling me to come out. My parents are in the living room and they'll most likely ask me where I'm headed to , for a second I thought of Dile and it made my heart ache , a tear rolled down my face and I let it dry out on my face . The pain will never go away .

I sit on my bed thinking of an excuse to tell them and nothing pops up , I get up and go to living to try and leave the house, maybe a lie will pop up when I'm under pressure .

" Where are the keys ?" I ask as soon as I notice that the gate is locked .

" Where are you going ? Don't you have exams to prepare for ?" My father asked in a firm voice.

" I need some air , I'm just taking a stroll and will be back in no time." I replied on my toes whilst unlocking the gate , I quickly toss the keys back in the house and leave before they ask anymore questions .

" Where are you ? " I send Lucky a text .

" By the corner "

" In the red car " he adds on .

Oh I spot the red car and walk towards it, he opens the door for me from inside and I get in .

" How are you ?" He asks me while starting the car.

" I'm chilled , you ?"

" Same"

" So who did you steal the car from ?" I ask giggling.

" Haha Promise, you're so funny ! I'm dying in laughter right now . " He said sarcastically whilst rolling his eyes , I push him playfully and he laughed . He started the car and we drove away , I looked outside the window and just admired the beauty of the road , this is my Sanctuary ... Ever since I was young I've always loved the road , my dad had morethan two cars and he absolutely  loved them so I used to spend alot of time with him because We were always travelling  ... We went through the Tunnel and all I could hear were Car horns . We drove on in silence , I continued to look out the window and Lucky's eyes were fixated on the road . I didn't mind the silence , I loved every bit of it , I loved the peace it brought in my life . I started to zone out slowly and it was just me , Lucky and the road , nothing else , every external sound was blocked out for that moment .

" Promise . " he said in a low voice . He's voice brought me back to life .

" Lucky . "

" Are you okay ?" He asked

" Yes I'm perfect "

" You're quiet today ."

" I'm just admiring the beauty of the road, plus I'm just happy to breath new air . " I said looking at him now .

" You actually disturbed my peace ." I add on

" Okay I'm sorry , I thought you're quiet because you're angry at me or something . I also love the silence , alot ! "

" Mhm" I remarked and looked out of the window again . Shame Lucky's crys from last night are still ringing in my head but I don't want to mention anything right now , just for the sake of peace and to just enjoy my day .

After a few minutes we arrived at a house , Lucky called someone to inform them that we've arrived and the gate opened . The house is huge truth be told , it has a modern feel to it and I just love it . Soft music was playing when we exited the car and entered the house , all Lucky's friends were there , even Kabelo was there . They were all seated around the couch with two hubblys infront of them , there were also drinks all around the table and it looked like everyone had their own cup with them .
