chapter 8

Ishmael left with out a trace of his presence, was I dreaming?.

Next day...

....I went to school hoping to see Ishmael so I made sure to reach earlier than I used to.

I got in class put my backpack on my chair,s edge and got a novel from my locker so that I can keep my mind restricted so as not to run wild.

....after some few minutes other students started to arrive and with no time everyone was settled but I couldn't see any trace of him.

"hello man wassup? u seem lost!"

Joe's voice jolted me back to class

" it's nothing dude".

I said trying to avoid eye contact with Joe , first thing I couldn't tell him that I was wondering where his trouble maker had gone, because if I did he would hate me or even start having weird imaginations which I tried to avoid at all cost.

"hey go sit the teacher is in".

fuks I think madam grace was God sent because she just saved my ass.

so madam grace was our class teacher and also our Litreture teacher.

my thoughts got cut in as she started talking.

"good morning class, first I would like to inform all of you that Ishmael has switched schools and will not be with us from now on".

... Ishmael! switched schools? how and why? was I the reason? why now?.

this were the questions running through my mind I couldn't understand why.

was I that bad? but he was the one who came to me.

The day seemed long, very long but thanks heavens the classes were over and it was time to go home, the bell rung and I was the first one to get their heels moving I wanted to get home and call Ishmael to confirm everything.

"yoh! Jay wassup with with you? you have been ignoring me through out the day, and now you are heading home with out me, have I wronged you?."

Now this is the last thing I wanted right now, I heard Joe's voice from behind I had tried my best to dash out quickly so that I can avoid him at all cost but noo ,I think he is inevitable.

"I've told you more than uhundred times that it's nothing what part of 'Its nothing don't you understand?.man fuck off I'm not in the mood".

I raised my voice at him but I regretted at the point.

now what's wrong with me

"Joe am s...o..r.."

I tried to apologize but when I turned around to look at him he had already left.

I didn't put that much into consideration because I wanted to know the whereabouts of Ishmael I hastened my steps and within no time I was nearing our estate gate .

"hello handsome"

what the fuck did I here it correctly? was that Ishmaels' voice wait is he here?

I turned around to look and I saw my walking angel glancing at me I couldn't believe my eyes I ran to him and hugged him tightly I couldn't let go, I didn't want to let go never again in my life will I let him go.

tears cascaded down my chicks draining may tear cage

"why did you go?."

I asked now loosening the hug and letting him go.

"I..."

"No don't answers let's get it my compound first"

I told him drying my tears with the back of my hand, then taking him by his right hand I led us to our house.
