ONE LESS PROBLEM

Day 12

Inside the hall, with bright light, sat impatiently a group of students as they waited for the lecturer to come. Some students at the side of the class chattered about the post they saw a few days ago. Cory and Dorcas faced their phone, while Savannah checked the mirror for her makeup. Seeing a flaw in her lipstick, she asked.

"I don't think the lecturer is coming today. Should we go to our dorm?"

"No, not yet. I have to see Stout," Cory replied her placing his phone in his side pocket.

"Why? I'm hungry and tired," Savannah protested

"I need his help with my project," he said, giving a smug on his face as he set the desk in a comfortable position ready to lie his head.

"Oh. I haven't started mine yet. Dorcas, have you? Savannah faces Dorcas.

"Yes. My topic is internet is an addiction" They stared at each other before laughed. A notification chimed on Dorcas' phone. It was a message like the one they received before from the ghost. Dorcas stared at the message as she contemplated whether she should show her friends what was written. Unfortunately, that decision was not to be made by her as other students received it too. She couldn't control the whispers and stares in her class. Savannah noticed the eyes that were looming on Cory, and Dorcas on the other hand pretends to not receiving any message on her phone. The only other friendly face savannah could approach was lily.

 "Lily, what are you guys reading?" She approached the short sweetheart of the school as Sage always called her.

"I don't think it's something you want to see. Cory…" Tries to show her the post. Seeing Lily's movement, Dorcas walks up to them but was too late as Savannah reads the message. Cory wakes up just in time noticing the negative energy around him. Savannah faces him in anger ready to confront him about the post when he takes his phone from his side pocket as he clicked on the message reading it in dismay.

Aren't you guys tired of the common story every community has? a person pretending to be what he's not. Seems here that the rich kid in our school apparently has a side chick in his conner and our dear savannah doesn't know shit. Underneath here are photos of him having sex with his so-called lover. Guess all that glitters is not gold. Your host, the Ghost.

Dorcas noticed the tension in the Lecture Hall. She decided to downplay the post "I mean this is well edited. I bet it's that bitch Tracy playing a game with us after you turned her down in front of the whole school".

"This is obviously photoshopped you guys. It's not true". Cory added. But his eyes looked at his girlfriend as his heart beat faster thinking of what she might be thinking. He couldn't care less about what his colleagues thought of him. He really liked Savannah, but that night was a mistake, a mistake that should have never happened or be recorded for that matter.

"It's fake. I'm sure of it". Lily placed her hands on Savannahs' taking her phone back before she breaks it. Suddenly Liver barges in sweating profusely. He eyes searched for Cory when he sees him pale facing Savannah. He grabs Cory shoulders trying to catch his breath before said "She's waiting for you"

"Who?" They both said in unison string at each other.

"In the hostel… The one in the post"

"Wait now Savannah before you…"Dorcas was cut short as savannah slams her phone on the floor wreck the hall. She tends to break thing when she's angry. After catching her breath, she follows them to the hostel. 

Guess you all thought I came here for attention, but I have come for something much bigger than you think, something a worthwhile. Stay tuned or not. Your host, the Ghost.
