Chapter four

Damn it what should I tell him, I was nervous as he keep staring at me waiting for an answer.

"Actually I was telling my brother about why I got drunk last night' I lied.

"Is he your elder brother" he asked.

"Actually they are my elder twin" I replied knowing he was falling for the lie.

"You didn't tell them I got you drunk because you did that to yourself" he said and I don't even know what to say.

"Hey Rachel" Jessica place her hand around my shoulder.

"Woah Mark looks like you both are getting along".

"Actually we are about leaving" I drag Jessica away from Mark after taking a glance at him and we headed to the class.

"What are you doing with Mark Hubbard" she asked.

"He was just asking if I got home safe" I lied again.

"Wait mark asked if you got home safe, do you know him before" sh asked.

"No, but he save me from that bastard yesterday".

"You are so lucky, every girl in the school is crazy about him" she said and giggled.

"Why would everyone be crazy".

"He is cute, handsome,tall and something girls would want to hear, he is damn rich"she said.

"Jeremy has those qualifications too" .

Did I just say that am in for questions.

"Jeremy"she repeated.

"Actually nevermind" I said and pick my biology textbook from my locker and we went for class.

"Welcome to your first class in biology, I know you must have heard and learned little basic about this subject but it going to advanced and might require lot of research and studying anyway am Alexander"

The student clapped and it went down, I glance at Jeremy he doesn't even seems like he care about the class.

Then at Mark he was totally different truly he has is attention on the teacher. He turned and I quickly looked away because I think he noticed I was staring at him.

"I have something interesting and it going to be your first project and it involves getting to know your partner and how they relate to things or reaction".

"I wish we are paired together" Jessica whispered into my eye and I nodded.

"Me too".

"Am going to pair you according to your attendance"

"Jessica and Bred".

"Oops guess am with someone else" she whispered.

I pray am paired with someone else but not Mark or Jeremy it would be a disaster.

"Rachael and Jeremy"

"Whaaaaat" I shouted and everyone stared at me.

"Any problem ma'am" the prof asked and I nodded my head negatively.

I looked at Jeremy and he has that smirk on his face.

"Mark and Brenda" He paired everyone and that Brenda kept flirting with Mark and it was disgusting.

"That all for today, and you are defending your project in two weeks time" he said and walk away.

The class was filled with noise as everyone was chatting with their partners.

I looked at Jeremy and I frown before walking out of the class luckily I met the prof outside the class.

"Excuse me sir"

"Yes Miss Rachael"he replied.

"Please is there in anyway I can change my partner" I asked.

"An sorry but it only if someone want to exchange with you but I don't think it a good idea"he replied.

"But sir"....he interrupted..."Miss Rachael if you have anything against your partner it would affect your mark and grade"he said and walk away.

I sigh and turned only to see Jeremy staring at me.

"I prefer having bad grades than working with you" I hissed and walk pass him.

"Hey do you really think am going to beg you to at least work with me, in your dreams"he said and walk ahead of me.

"Your dreams too" I replied.

"Can you stop talking or I might kick your thigh open again" he replied walking fast to create a big gap between us.

"What did you just say" I stopped walking.

"You heard me Miss Rachael" he mimicked the Prof and stopped walking then face me.

"Are you crazy you did that on purpose" I yelled at him angrily.

"At least I have a clearer view than when we where still kids" he replied and walk away.

That hurt me so much he disagrace me purposely and he was even proud of it.

I didn't go back to class, I just went home, I called the driver and he said he was on his way.

I entered the car and I only the tears rolled down my cheeks.

My phone beeped and i check the ID. "Are you skipping class"

it was a message from Jessica.

"Am not feeling too well so I went home" I texted back and threw the phone on the car seat.

"Are you okay ma'am" the driver asked.

"Am fine I just want to go home early today" I replied and he bowed his head slightly before concentrating on driving back.

"Are you okay" Michelle asked with concerned looked as she stare at me while eating dinner.

"What happened in school today" Dad asked.

"Nothing just felt sick" I replied sadly.

"Should I call the doctor to come check you up" Mom asked.

"No am fine"I replied faking a smile.

"So how do you plan on doing your project"Dad asked.

"How do you know about the project" I asked.

"Comm'n Prof. Alexander told me and he told me you insist on changing partner"he replied.

"Yes daddy I really don't want to have anything to do with Jeremy"

"Jeremy again" Michelle said and I gave her a glare.

"Rachael even though he is your enemy or you don't want to have anything to do with him, this is an opportunity to know why he is like that" Dad said.

"Rachael if is the type that doesn't make friends or bully student or fight with you, it for a reason" mom concluded.

"Still surprised it always Jeremy" Michelle said and I glare at her again.

They are right I might get to know why he always bully me and not other girls.

"Thank Dad, thanks Mom and thanks to Michelle for your concern and Michael for keeping mute".

"You can invite him over and do the project here, it more comfy here" Dad said and I nodded.

"Goodnight dear" mom kiss my forehead and walk away and dad follow her.

"Hey am obeying table manners" he said and we all laughed because Michael talks Alot especially during dinner.

"Why didn't you say that when Dad amd Mom was here" Michelle said and he just scoffed and continue eating.
