As this thought was going on in his mind the door to their class was pushed open as the principal entered, everyone quickly sat on their seat, and Alex also removed his headphone and adjusted his sitting posture. Following the principal closely was a teenager about their age, she was clad in a white shirt and black trousers her hair was flowing down her back like a river peacefully flowing down the mountain, her looks were so mesmerizing, coupled with the clothes she wore which brought out her perfect figure, all attention was focused on her, the boys were drooling except for Alex who only threw her a glance and averted his gaze, while the girls were feeling jealous, although they've been informed that she was beautiful they were still jealous, her looks had even surpassed Lydia's. Rachael frowned as her face swept around the class as she noticed the drooling gaze of the boys, this was the reaction of all the boys she had ever met, so she thought of them as repulsive. The principal
I hate herAfter Alex had left, Rachael stood there dumbstruck, so he was her neighbor her mother had talked about, did she know that Alex lived here beforehand, no that shouldn't be, she thought as she finally sighed before she closed the door and entered the house. "Aunt! Aunt!, why did you send me to the next house when you know that its inhabitant is a female of my age, you know that I hate all girls" Alex yelled at his aunt when he got back inside. His aunt just looked at him before totally ignoring him. Seeing his aunt ignoring him he stomped upstairs to his room. His aunt just shook her head as she watched him going into his room, Alex was not like that in the past, he was a kind person, he usually treats everyone was the love and care but after the incident, he had become cold towards everybody especially the opposite gender, the only ones he was not cold to was were the people that were close to him. Alex lay down on his bed staring at his ceiling, his mind drifting to th
The next morning Alex woke up with a yawn, thinking of what had happened yesterday he realized that he had already fallen for this new girl, he just shook his head as he made his way to the bathroom preparing for school.Thirty minutes later he was already prepared for school, he was eating his breakfast smiling to himself, nobody knew what he was thinking, if the girls of his class were to see him now they would never believe it was Alex the handsome but cold and indifferent dude. The doorbell rang as Alex shouted, "come in". The door was then opened as Elizabeth and Eric walked in. "Alex what was wrong with you yesterday," Elizabeth said pulling Alex's ear before he had the chance to say anything. "Aww! Am sorry, I promise I won't do that again", Alex apologized making Elizabeth who was pulling his ear twist it harder before finally leaving him alone looking satisfied with herself. "What are you laughing at", Alex said when he saw Eric who was by the side snickering. Some minut
As she thought about this, Eric's phone suddenly rang loudly, everyone in the cafeteria turned that look at him, ignoring everyone he picked up his phone, seeing the caller's ID he frowned, why was Alex calling him, he thought.Picking up the phone "are you Eric" a female voice asked from the other end of the phone. Eric frowned when he heard the voice he did not know who the person who was talking was, after contemplating he replied "yes I am". "Good, your attention is needed, the owner of this phone had an accident and has been rushed here to Cambridge north in Alexis hospital and we need to operate on him so we need someone related to him to sign some papers," the voice said. Eric's face increasingly became ugly when he heard the information, Cambridge north was not far from their school, how had Alex been involved in an accident, "ok I would be there soon" he replied in a grave voice before hanging up the phone. Rachael and Elizabeth looked at Eric anxiously "what's wrong" they
Alex opened his eyes to the beeping of the machine as he looked around, he was unfamiliar with the place he was, he tried to remember what had happened last before he fell unconscious it then occurred to him that the last thing he saw was a truck hitting his car, he then looked around once more before he noticed he was in the hospital, some familiar figures were sitting close to him and even a female figure among them was holding his hands, two of the figures noticed his gaze before they jumped up to hug him as if he had been missing for long, naturally, that was Elizabeth and Eric, then noticed that the figure holding his hands had left it abruptly after she noticed he had woken up. Immediately he saw the figure intently, string of memories poured into his head, he remembered that after he had helped this figure out when she was bullied in the cafeteria his emotions had gone out of control, leading him to go out of the school, he was unable to focus when he was driving because of the
"Come on guys let's go visit Rachael," Alex said much to the shock of his friends.Staring at him wide eyes opened, they looked at him in shock "he wants to visit Rachel at home", where they dreamed."What's wrong with you guys"."Nothing, nothing" they both replied."Then stop staring at me like that and let us proceed", he continued."But why do you want to visit her, you've never stepped into the boundary of that house since she moved in, or is it that our dear Alex has finally fallen in love" Alex's aunt interjected teasing him."Why can't I visit her she was by my side when I was in a coma even refusing to go to school it's just normal for me to repay her act of kindness" Alex pouted in reply."Well well somebody has finally fallen in love but is refusing to admit it" Elizabeth by the side also teased him, making Alex go in red in anger.Alex turned to look at Eric who was by his side and had yet to say anything."Why staring at me like that I was not the one teasing you," Eric sa
"Do you know where she has gone," Eric behind Alex asked the gardener calmly when he saw that Alex was no longer able to think clearly? "ERM, I also don't know where she went, I only knew that yesterday, she packed all her luggage and moved out with a woman, who seems it was her mother" he replied."Thanks very much for the help," Eric said politely to the gardener.Alex had sunk into a deep abyss of no return, the instant he heard what the gardener said, Rachael had moved out with her mother, but to where? what had happened for her to move out without saying a word to him? he asked himself. She had never said a word about it to Alex, even though she thought she would be able to stay in Cambridge for over two years, but who would have thought that her mother would suddenly come and ask them to move out, this time her mother was in such a hurry, she did not have any time for an explanation nor allowing her to bid farewell to her friends. She quickly composed a letter, and left it for
At the Randolph hotel in Oxford, Rachel and her mother had finally stopped for the night, so they lodged in the hotel, they would continue on their journey the next day, up till this moment, her mother hadn't told her where their destination was, lying on her bed Rachel thought about her last moments with Alex although he hadn't told her he loved her she still felt that their moments together was romantic, she did not know when she fell asleep.The next day Rachel woke up early, as they continued on their journey, four hours later they arrived at Bangor, there was a university in Bangor, so Lydia decided to enroll in the university. She enrolled in the university there, this time around her mother was living with her, she would come home every day, naturally, Rachel was surprised that her mother had started living with her, she was very happy about it, she did not ask her mother the reason behind her stay at home, anytime her mother came home, she would teach Rachel some self-defense
