NOVA

“Thank you” I whispered when his car came to a stop in front of my house

“Call me if you need anything at all,” he told me

“Good night Dylan and thank you,” I told him with a little smile

I got out of the car and walked over to the gate, I looked behind me at intervals to see that he was still parked there waiting to see me get in before he drove away.

I turned the doorknob slowly hoping there would be no one around and I could get to hide away in my room and bury myself in the silence but the minute I stepped in I was met with my mom’s eyes. She turned to me and immediately rushed towards me like something had happened.

“Why didn't you pick up your call? You had me worried sick” she scolded me

“She is fine, that is all that matters,” Ricardo said, he was dressed in a full suit like he was about to leave for work or had just stepped in. From the corner of my eye, I saw his suitcase resting on the couch.

Why was he back early?

Did something happen?

    NOVA“Can I lend a pen” Dylan asked after walking in the middle of the class and making someone get up from their seat just so he could sit“You don’t have a pen?” I asked“Turns out I do not” he smiled pretending to go through his seemingly empty bag“Surprise you even have a notebook in there” I rolled my eyes pulling out my pen case “That’s a lot of stationery” he laughed“Making fun of someone you want to borrow from really?” I eyed“My bad, let me have one” he giggled “You better return it” I handed him one“Thanks” he smiled taking it from me“You seem chatty today” he noted“Thank you, I would take that as a compliment” I said“It is I promise” he laughed too loudly this time turning the attention of the class to us and a glare from the teacher like I was the one cackling like a clown “Some people lack decorum” Jeremy said at my other side and luckily Dylan didn't hear if not I wonder what it would have led to“I apologize on his behalf” I whispered to him“Whatever” he roll

    DYLAN“What’s going on?” I pointed to a bunch of people jumping and making a hell of a noise“We just got in together didn’t we?” Caleb asked“Hey, what’s that about?” Elliott pulled a girl to the side “Something about basketball list” she blushed tucking her hair nether ears“Thank you” he winked at her“Looks like we have new team members” Caleb askedThat’s not possibleI stormed over to where they had gathered in front of the notice board with my eyes scanning through the list. There were just four people on the list and just as I dreaded his name was sitting there.Jeremy FisherHow could coach do that? The rule was simple, why would he make them join the team when they didn’t know how to play, and even worse he included someone who played foul into the team. What happened to the rules?I was pissed as hell “I would need the keys please” Elliott whispered beside me“Do not even go there” I hissed“We had a bet” he laughed“And you know he only got in because of favoritism” I i

    May came over to pick me again, I felt a bit lighter knowing I didn’t have to keep my eyes on my back but I couldn’t shake away all the thoughts that kept creeping in.Would I be able to go through that heartache ache taking the stand as a victim and having questions thrown at me?The last incident almost drove me mad. How could I do it again?“Heyyy Girlll” May waved “Hey” I waved with a small smile“You don’t look like you had any sleep” she pouted“But you are dressed better” Her smile returned as I slid into the seat“Is that an insult?” I asked her eyes grew big excited that I was speaking“No, no you look perfect” she corrected before starting the car“Did something happen yesterday?” She asked like she could already tell“Yes” I breathed out, there was no point keeping it away from her“What is it?” She asked“Well-”“He showed up”And she slammed hard on the brake stopping in the middle of the road“Jesus May” I grabbed the seat belt wrapped around me tightly “He what?” She

    He had told me some time back that they both had been around each other all their lives. What was news to me was that Amelia could call Dylan’s Dad and report him whenever she felt like and hearing his conversation with his father he was a strict man and with someone like Amelia on your radar just felt like having a spy around you. I couldn’t imagine how many times she must have threatened to report him. Sounded like a whole lot of bullshit.“Thank you for the ride” I told him when I got out of the car“Let me walk you in” he offered and I gave a nod in agreement we walked slowly in silence until we decided to break the silence“Would you be coming to school tomorrow?” He asked“Yes” I noddedI might break down a few times but I won’t let him disrupt my activities“I have a drama meeting tomorrow and I have to read the play tonight we will be discussing it tomorrow” I said “You need some sleep” he said“And wake up screaming? I will pass” I laughed“Try thinking about me and you woul

    “You don't have to look after me, I’m fine” I told him once we got outside“You expect me to leave you alone?” He asked like he couldn’t understand what I had said“That’s not happening get in” he held the door open for me“Don’t you have something to do? Why are you following me around!!” I shouted“Being mean to me wouldn’t get rid of me so can you just get in” he gestured and after staring at the open door for a while I finally got in wiping the tears streak that remained on my eyesHe began to drive in silence and didn’t say anything which left me wondering what he was thinking. I leaned my head on the window to avoid eye contact with him. I felt ashamed to even look at him, I was glad he showed up and whisked me away from that situation but some part of me wished it was someone else so he wouldn't have to see me that way again.“Do you want ice cream?” He asked but I didn’t respond “Coffee? Iced tea? Soda? Matcha? Water? Beer? Vodka” he kept on listing “Say something. Where do

    “You need to tell someone at home about this” Dylan told me“He was right, my hand was shaking so much as I tried to find my phone inside my bag“Let me help you” he said digging into the bag to get the phone for me.“Thank you” I mumbled when he handed it back to me, I dialed my mom's number and waited for her to pick up but it went to voicemail. I tried again the same thing I wasn’t able to get through to her. So instinctively I called Ricardo to ask if she was anywhere close so I could speak to her.“Nova” he picked up surprised to see me calling“Is my mom close?” I asked“No, she left the house not long” he said“Is everything okay?” He asked and I went quiet “Nova, talk to me did something happen?” He asked further“I saw him” my voice came out small“Who?” He asked“He was at my school, he came for me” I repeated crying all over again“Where are you now?” He asked panic filling his voice“Did he do anything?”“Are you alright?” He asked a series of questions “I’m on my way h
