"Hello there, you did come." A voice said from behind and I turned sharply face him, but there was no one.



The voice..sounded so real
And familiar



I sighed and pulled out a chair to sit on.



prolly my imaginations


My phone pinged at Neenah's SMS

Neen🖤: 😡😡😡

Me: Sorryyyyy😬😬

Neen🖤: You're impossible!
You better get your butts back here

I couldn't reply due to insufficient airtime and as expected, she called after a while.

"Where are you?" Her efforts to sound serious were futile.


"Uhm. YKW" I chuckled


"B&B right? I'm on my way"


"What!? Look, I'm not a baby. I'll be fine"
"Wait, how are you calling when you're supposed to be in class."



She didn't reply and just hung up.



Whatever!



"Deen" A very familiar voice called and I looked up.



"Salim?" I found myself on my feet



"Longest time, Babe." He sat opposite me with a wide grin.


"You. Are. Lemony?" I could not just digest that




How's this even possible. Canada..Sudan? NO!




"You named me Le..what's that?" The grin was still there.




I sat back, speechless



I'm so not okay with this!



"We meet again, Deena." He was obviously overjoyed




"Yes. Salim." I tried not to let my irritation show.




What could be worse than this




"Are you..sick or something? You don't look good." He peered into my eyes



My reply was late as someone screamed "fireworks!" and almost everyone rushed towards the exit and I became confused.



What the heck. All this drama for fireworks


Someone passed by and his hand brushed me slightly by the arm.




"Sorry" He said but didn't stop.





This voice...
