“But why would they start a night class out if the blue, don’t you think it’s weird….”Maxim said as we walked downstairs.
“I don’t see anything in it”I shrugged.
“Well, I just don’t feel good with the stuff…”he scoffed and folded turned to look at him.
He had a bowl of ice cream with him, he scooped an amount into his s mouth and I shook my head.
This guy is just a foodie!
I wonder why he isn’t fat by now.
“If you’re not feeling too good about it, then, follow me”I said and he grinned.
“And leave all this in the house?… no way, besides I’m feeling extra hungry today so I don’t know if I can cope..”he replied.
I rolled my eyes at him and walked to the entrance door.
I opened the door and walked out.
I moved to my ride and as I was few steps away, Sean opened the door for me.
I got in and he closed the door.
He walked around the car and entered the driver’s seat, he inserted the key in the ignite engine and the car started.
He drove out of the compound and then, he tried starting up a conversation.
“So, how is your studies”he asked but I just nodded.
“C’mon Raq, are you still angry with me?”he asked but I have no reply.
He sighed and looked at me through the rear view mirror.
But, I’m I really angry at him?
“I’m not, I just don’t feel like having a conversation right now”I finally replied him.

Sean drove inside the school.
Wow!
The school looks more lively with the lights.
Hmm..
I clicked the door opened, got down and slammed the door shut.
“Bye”Sean waved at me.
“Yeah”I simply replied.
I walked to the school premises and headed to my class.
I stepped in and went to my seat.
Koyla and Miranda are yet to arrive.
I fed my eyes with the other students and soon, I heard my name.
“Raquel”
That’s koyla.
She rushed to her seat and sat down.
“Gosh, you look more beautiful at night”she complimented and I blushed a little.
“Don’t flatter me, koyla”I smiled.
A brief moment passed…
“I wish I won’t have to doze off during lecture”I broke the silent.
“Well, I don’t have to wish!”koyla replied, she rested her chin on her palm.
“What do you mean?”I asked.
“Geez…. must I break everything down for you?”she scoffed.
“I have insomnia!”she added and I muttered an”oh”.
“Lucky you”I said.
“You think?, I’m only lucky when I’m having a night class, did you know how many hours that passed before I got to sleep?”
“I certainly don’t know that!”I replied.
The teacher came in and we started lecture.

“Aish, my neck….”
“Hmm…”
“I’m really feeling sleepy, I wish I can sleep”
The students said as we finished the first lecture.
So, Miranda didn’t show up.
I stretched my leg i and yawned.
I heard my phone chimes. I opened my bag and brought it out.
It was a message from Miranda.
*Come to the garden*the message says.
*Come alone, I have an important information for you about the girl that was raped*another one enters.
We are having ten minutes for a break, so I only have few minutes.
“I need to ease my self”I said to koyla.
“Should I follow you?, I don’t want you to sleep walk to the restroom”she joked.
“You wish”I rolled my eyes and she smiled.
I stood up and walked out of the class.
I went to the garden and there was no Miranda there.
I decided to wait for a few minutes Maybe she will show up.
Few minutes passed and there was no sign of Miranda.
As I turned to leave, I felt a cold object on my neck.
Huh?
I slowly turned around and my body froze as I stared at the gun that was been pointed at me.
“Move and I will blow off your skull”he threatened.
I couldn’t move.
I couldn’t do anything.
I just stared at the gun…
“Raquel….”I heard someone called my name.
But… but, isn’t that styopa voice?
What… what’s he doing here?
Oh my God!
“Now, I need you to act as if everything is okay, act as If you are just strolling around the garden. If you tell him anything, I will kill both of you”
Holy Mary!!!!!!
My eyes popped out of their sockets and tears glazed my eyes.
“Oh, Raquel, I’ve been searching around for you”he sighed on seeing me.
“But… are you.. okay?”he asked as he saw the tears that rolled down my eyes.
“Did… did I make you uncomfortable?…”he asked again.
“Just… just go, please…..”I stuttered, trying not to be break down so we won’t both get killed.
“Why?, do you hate me that much?”he moved closer to me.
“No please…”I sobbed.
He finally got to my side, he pulled me to himself on immediately.
“So, I wanted to tell you about….”
We heard a sound and it sounded just like a gunshots.
What?
I released from the hug and my eyes traveled to his tommy.
I freaked out when her saw blood oozing out of his stomach.
“Oh my God!!!”I screamed.
He stared at me before sliding to the floor.
Ahhhhhh!!!
“Styopa!…..”I ran to his side and dropped to a crouch.
“Styopa!!…..”
