Chapter 13
Akeelah's pov
Me and Cyryll are waiting for the principal right here in a small café so we can talk in private about the stealing of Mr. Velasquez.
"love?" Cyryll called while staring at my face.
"yes?"
"you look beautiful on that dress!" he greeted, plastering a big smile on his face. I was wearing a flowy white dress with yellow flowers on it.
"thanks! Oh! Mr. Valencia is here!" I stood up to greet him.
"oh hello!" Mr. Valencia greeted and sat in front of us. "so you want us to talk about the case of Mr. Velasquez?"
"yes sir! I already have the evidence of the crime" I responded formally, As I opened my laptop to show the video to him.
We watched how the crime was done and how he left no trace as an evidence. Cory entered the empty classroom and took a glace on every corner of the room to check if anyone is watching. He did what he planed to do, he grabbed the small purse with the money and placed it on his bag and went outside like nothing happened. But there is one thing I'm very confused of.
He is already a rich guy! Why would he do such a thing?
"Now I we have the footage, we can easily prove the broad about this case!" Mr. Valencia pointed out the footage. "Miss Montefalco I want you to come with me this Tuesday, we are having a meeting and I want you to come with me to discuss this matter. Okay I should get going I have to finish a lot of stuff today!"
"oh! And I have to say, you have a great potential of being a great lawyer! I have my hopes up to you!" Mr. Valencia bid goodbye and left!
"I'm proud of you!" Cyryll wrapped his arms around me, hugging me tightly.
"come on it was just an easy case!" I rolled my eyes at him.
"didn't you heard the principal? He said you have the capabilities of being a great lawyer!" he said, still hugging me.
"okay let's stop this nonsense and order some food home, I still have to review for tomorrows quiz" I removed his hands off me and went to the counter to order. He was left alone on the table still staring at me.
__few hours later__
Cyryll drop me at my condo, he can't stay longer because he has some things to be done. As I entered I directly place my food on the coffee table and placed all my notes right bedside it, I started eating while reading the notes so that I can finish easily.
It's already 9pm I finished studying and I finished my food. It's been a tiring day for me! I already did my night routine, I sat at the edge of my bed and grabbed my phone, I opend and dm from Cyryll.

I can't help myself to blush at his words, I look like a stupid high school student smiling at her phone.
@Akeelah.M.M
: I'm going to bed now!
:good night, Ily
I turn off my phone and went to bed, as I was about to close my eyes, my phone was ringing "Cy! I already told you I'm about to sleep-"
"Akeelah! It's me, Alice"
"oh! I'm so sorry" I sat still but my sole is still half asleep.
"I need your help!" she panicked. "umm...I'm at the police station right now, something happened!" I can't hear someone crying but I know it's not her! I rushed outside and went to the nearest police station that Alice said she would be.
"finally you came!" she ran towards me.
"what happened?"
"so I was passing by on the school campus and I saw a girl named Diane and she told me she needed help, someone was trying to rape her!" Alice speaking non-stop while walking at the front desk.
"where is she?"
" the police is already interviewing her, but I think there's more than that, I think she mentioned that one of the professors was trying to rape her in exchange of good grades" she explained.
"what the fuck?!"
" miss are you with miss Diane?" the police asked.
"yes!" Alice answered and we followed the police.
"Diane are you okay?" Alice asked the girl who is crying at the corner.
"is she Diane?" I asked, feeling pity at the girl.
"yeah, umm Diane this is my friend, Akeelah, she can help you with this" Alice sat beside her, patting her back.
"actually can we not talk about this right now?" she sobbed.
"sure!" I replied.
"and btw I can you not t-tell anyone a-about this? I d-don't want my p-parents to k-know" she said while stuttering.
"umm sure!" I replied.
"Akeelah, I think your phone is vibrating" Alice pointed out my purse. "oh! I'm sorry" I opened my phone and saw a ton of dm from Cyryll.
@Cyryll_042
:hry bsby!
:I'n ay ypur vondp
@Akeelah.M.M
:are you drunk?
:okay I will be right there.
"hey Alice! I have to go, can you take care of her?" I fixed myself up.
"sure!" I bid goodbye and left.
I was walking on the hallway I saw Cyryll laying down on the floor drunk. GOD DAMN! WHAT JUST HAPPENED TO THIS MAN!
"can you get up?" I help him stand up "gosh! Your freaking h-heavy!" I said while supporting his back.
"A-akeelah...I'm sorry" he whine while his eyes closed.
