“Styopa!”I ran to where he was laying on the floor.
Oh, God!
Tears gushed out of my eyes…
He vomited blood and raised his hand to reach for mine.
Someone pushed me up by my arm and I turned around just to see a strange guy, he was putting on a mask.
Huh?
Who is he?.
Could.. could he probably be the one that shot styopa?.
I wriggled my hand out if his grip and ran to styopa.
I placed both of my palm on where he was shot, hoping the bleeding will stop.
“Hey, look at me. You will be fine”I said assuringly.
“I told you not to come!”I sobbed.
“I….. I….”he wanted to talk but it got worse as he vomited more blood.
“Just stay put, please. Don’t say anything”tears flowed out of my eyes and it landed on his face.
I wiped my face and sniffed in.
“Can… can you manage to walk?”I asked and he nodded.
I tried lifting his body up but hell, he’s too strong.
God!.
A strong hand pulled me up and before I know anything, I was already being drag.
What?
My tears block my vision as I gazed at styopa lifeless body in the floor.
“Please, noooooo!!!!”I shouted.
An handkerchief was placed on my nose and before I know it, I passed out.
*
I opened my eyes to see a fan rolling on the ceiling.
Huh?
I looked around and furrowed my brows.
Where I’m I?
The room was bright and I found my clothes on the floor.
What?
I glanced at my body and realized I wasn’t naked.
Oh, thank goodness.
Just then, the memories of last night flashed through my head.
Styopa, yes, I remembered he was shot.
And.. and I was kidnapped.
Mama mercy!
I sat down and tried getting off the bed but couldn’t.
I stare at my legs only for me to see they were tied.
Hun?
What the fuck is going on here?
The door opened immediately and a rough guy walked in with a tray.
He came to place it in front of me and turned to take his leave.
“Who are you people, why did you kidnap me, hun?, who are you”I shouted.
He paused and turned to look at me.
“I can’t believe you kids”he muttered and walked away.
What?
“Hey, come back!”
It was already too late as he closed the door.
Oh, God!.
Where the hell I’m I?
Did styopa survived?…
Gosh!.
I’m really famished.
I stared at the plate, contemplating whether to eat the food or not.
Ugh!
I reached for the tray and drew it closer to me.
I have no choice.
A plate was placed on the it. I opened it and it was lasagna.
Ew!
“Hey, I’m allergy to lasagna”
I fluttered my eyes opened and glanced around.
I’m in my room.
Oh my God.
It was all a dream.
Holy moly!
I panted heavily and shut my eyes.
I wasn’t kidnapped?
Styopa wasn’t shot?
There was no night class?
Mama mercy!
All this didn’t happen in real life..
Oh, thank gracious!
I got off the bed and went to brush my teeth in the bathroom.
I came back later and off my clothes.
Baby I’m slowly falling in love with you… darling will you be patient for me.. for me …
I sang styopa song inwardly as I entered the bathroom.
I went to stand under the shower and i turned it on.
The water came gushing out and I smiled.
“Darling…. will you be patient for me, I’m also falling in love with you, be patient for me”I sang out.
How I wish where I was also accusing him about Delilah was also a dream.
Hmm.
After some minutes, I was done bathing.
I grabbed my towel from the hanger and wrapped it around me.
I walked back to the room and met Maxim on my bed.
He was fully dress and he was operating his phone.
“Gosh, you finally came out”he said as he looked up at me.
“I didn’t take that long so shut up”I snapped back at him.
“Oh, really?. Did you know what the time is?, I’m sure the bell for first lecture would have been rang by now”he expounded.
Huh?
Did I woke up late?
Geez…
“Okay, now I’ve heard you, can you use the door please”I stated and he rolled his eyes.
“Fine”he said, stood up and left.
Hmph.
I creamed my body and wore my underwear before putting my uniform on.
I put on my sneakers and carried my bag.
I rushed back to my drawer and pulled it out then brought out my perfume.
I made a squirt on my body and returned it back.
I looked in the mirror and smacked my head.
I haven’t brush my hair.
I brushed it and packed it in a ponytail and I dabbed my pink head band on it.
Now, I looked more beautiful.
I exit the room and walked downstairs.
I need to apologize to styopa.
I shouldn’t have accused him about what I wasn’t sure of.
I guess I was just angry at that time.
I walked to the dining room and greeted my parents and they replied me cheerfully.
I took a seat beside Mirabel and he turned to smile at me.
I smiled back and ruffled his hair.
“What?, I spend hours trying to fix that”Mirabel pouted.
“Since when did you care about the shape your hair is?, or do you already have a crush?”I whispered the last part in his ear.
“Of course, what did you expect from this little cute boy”Maxim said aloud making Mom and Dad directs their eyes at us.
Geez.
I stepped on his leg and he winced.
“What are you guys talking about?”Mom asked and I gave Maxim a look.
“No… nothing, I was looking at my phone”he stuttered nervously, raising his phone up so she could see it
Mom nodded and we continued eating our food.
*
I rushed my food because we are already late.
Maxim also did the same and within the twinkle of an eye, we found ourselves walking towards the lots.
I entered my ride with Maxim and Sean drove out.
After several minutes, we got to school.
I hurriedly got down and rushed to the school premises.
Maxim cared less as he operate his phone while walking.
Gosh.
I ran through the lobby and finally I got to the class.
The teacher was in and he was writing on the board.
I walked in steathily and went to my seat then sat down.
“You’re late”Koyla muttered and I nodded.
I brought out my textbook and my notebook also and my pen then I started writing.
*
The bell for lunch break was rang and I couldn’t be more happy.
I’m going to meet styopa in his class, I want to hear his side in the story.
“Cafeteria?”koyla asked.
“You go ahead, I’ll meet you there. I have to attend to something first”I explained and she nodded and left with Miranda.
I walked hastily to styopa class and when I couldn’t find him there, I went to the studio.
“Darling, will you be patient for me, l’m also falling in love with you…”I sang out as I opened the door.
My face dropped immediately.
He wasn’t in.
“Is that my song?”someone asked from behind.
I turned around and it was styopa.
Oh my God.
He stared at me Intensively and I didn’t know when I pulled him in a hug
