I sat myself in the garden that evening, i usually do this to calm my mind and to sooth myself. Sitting there is a bliss that one can feel, some sight of flowers that i gardened always gives me hope to bloom like them and that grass beneath my feet has its own different messages for me. I sat there for about half an hour and then i made some dinner for myself and Rachel. She is my cousin who sometimes come to visit me she is a proper box of boredom and anxiety. Like, i always wonder how the hell she got this much anxiousness about every little thing.
"So, what are doing this days?" She asked.
"Nothing much, am just joining a school." I said.
"Oh! you want to study more?" She said in sarcasm.
"No, am a mental health teacher there." I said.
"This beans are really well cooked." She said probably to change the topic."
"Thank you. What are you doing now times?" I asked.
"Am fed up. Do you remember my colleague who is just so handsome. I had crush on him since i first noticed him but now, he is dating another girl of our office." She said with her usual anxiousness. I actually know that she is not going to answer my question in just one line instead she will explain the whole paragraph to me and i was right.
"He is too cute, how would i resist myself? But that day, He kissed Karla in front of the whole office and in i was totally broken. I needed you so desperately to tell you about all this stuff because you know that you are my only close friend and cousin of course." She said.
"I know, just forget him. And make yourself sleep here with me tonight i think you will feel better this way." I said as i really don't want her to cry because of some handsome, cute guy. If i say the truth i don't want her to sleep at my home but as a cousin and as an only friend of her i have no other choice.
"Ya, i thought the same that's why i brought my some clothes here already." She said and we both broke out into laugh.
Next morning, Rachel was sleeping and i left for the school as it was my first day i don't really want myself to be late. As soon as i entered the school i saw a teacher who was staring at me i waved uncomfortably to her and she didn't waved back but walked away and i just keep on telling myself that everything is good, probably she didn't noticed me. I stepped forward and then i found mrs. Stapnowich who was in her early fifties she was a good women and i know her because of our first meeting that happened when i came for mental checkup of students.
"Hey You, here?" She asked in shock.
"Yes am appointed as mental health teacher." i said with a smile.
"That's really good my child. Come let me show you your table, our principal told me that a new teacher is appointed but i never knew its you. Well, its really good that you are here." she said. I strongly believe that she is going to tell me about everything that happened in the school since the starting. As i could see that she is a talkative women indeed.
"Well, if you are here as mental health teacher then you must notice Sarah first. She was my favourite student in music class." She said
"Sarah Christi right? What happened to her?" I asked as i wanted to know her point of view.
"Ainsley, her one and only best friend and probably her one and only love died, i know that how can she speak after her biggest loss but mourning herself in this way is not right either." She said.
"Were Sarah and Ainsley in relationship or just best friend?" I asked.
"Only Sarah and Ainsley knows this as.." she was saying something but before she could complete a teacher called her and she left me on my table.
