MEANT To Be

chapter 32

"Yes that's also okay" Dan said and the rest nodded.

"We will start the class after you are done with your breakfast" I said.

"Okay Elva"

I started teaching them some subjects some days back because i can't just bear seeing them like this everyday while their mates are out there studying but they can't, simply because their cruel parents abandoned them.

By the time they are out of here,they would have lacked behind in their studies so why not help them with the little we can,so;

I spoke to the Doc. about it and he approved and even provided us with a big marker board,some note books,text books,pen, and some other writing material.

They all felt happy after i told them i will be teaching them..I stylishly went to the school in the next street to check their syllabus and also a lot of useful things i need to enlighten the children about and I'm glad i grabbed a lot of things.

They are smart,so they grab things easily and i don't go through a lot of stress while teaching them.

I scheduled a seminar for next week, it's about how to improve in teaching.. enlightenment on a lot of things with regards to teaching and some stuffs.

"Elva i did my assignment" Mitch said happily.

"I did mine also" They chorused.

"That's good...Mitch go round and collect it,then bring it to me" I said and she stood up. Eagerly collecting the assignments.

She submitted all the books to me and i started marking .

The cook came in with their breakfast including mine..and I'm surprised she's smiling.

"Good morning ma'am" I greeted together with the kids.

"Good morning all" She responded,her smile grew wider..."today's breakfast tastes nice,i went for some lessons over the week and i learnt a lot..I hope you enjoy it" She said and dropped the big basket on the table before turning to leave.

"I hope so" Mitch said.

"You will know so" The cook said with a smile before she walked out.

I opened the meal and the aroma that welcomed me was...*Wow*

It's cranberry sauce.

It seems I'm gonna have a taste of today's breakfast.

I dished it out for the children,served them round and went back to my seat.

"Wow.."

"The cook has really improved"

"It's yummy"

"She was right"

"I love it"...

They said obviously enjoying their cranberry sauce.

I smiled and started eating mine and the waste was more than 'Wow' she has really improved a lot.

We finished eating and I packed the empty dishes back into the basket,i kept it aside for the cook.

They all finished their breakfast today with nothing remaining in their plates..

"Children...how about we take a nap before starting class" I said.

"Ok Elva" They said laying on their beds.

I placed my head on the desk and slept off.

***

I woke up by some voices shouting ' emergency '.

The children are all awake playing around.

"Ok children, let's start class" I said and they arranged their chairs sitting down quietly.

I walked to the board with a red marker in hand.

Our topic for today is....

***

We finished class few minutes before lunch,the children bombarded me with questions and I'm glad I'm able to answer it all.

They submitted their notes for marking and went back to their beds waiting for lunch.

I was marking when the cook came in,with smiles.

"Ma'am your breakfast was yummy" I said with a smile.

"Yes we like it" The children said and her smile grew wider.

"I hope you will enjoy the lunch also" She said,dropped the lunch basket,carried the breakfast's and walked out.

She now looks happy...I'm glad for that.

Nurse Claire came in immediately i finished serving the children their lunch and i know Ben is already waiting for me outside.

"Thanks Nurse Claire,Enjoy your lunch children,i will be back soon" I said and walked out to meet him.

We walked to the cafeteria chatting and laughing as usual.

We got there and i was surprised to see few ladies outside poking their heads into the cafeteria.

I gave Ben a what-the-hell-is-going-on Look.

He shrugged and led me inside .. I'm curious to know what got the ladies attention.

We entered and i also stood rooted to the spot.

I saw..saw..Mig and Daisy seated like couples and my anger rose.

Daisy leaned over and pecked him on the cheek,i felt my anger overose and stomped towards them.

Daisy should consider herself a dead meat today.

💎Elva's POV💎

*Daisy consider yourself a dead meat today* I thought stomping towards them with anger but i stopped to reconsider.

What the hell did i wanted to do?

I know Daisy to be dramatic, she's definitely putting up that show for it to be clear to others that Mig is her boyfriend so what the hell did i want to fight her for.

I'm more angry with Mig for following her down here. But she must have forced him because Mig doesn't really like going out.

He's even looking more handsome.

What the hell are they even doing here?

The waitresses were already flaunting their selves at him. I know he's faking that smile, he's not very comfortable.

The whole cafeteria was filled with the word; "Omg he's so cute"

The manager had to chase the ladies away as they were causing noise and bringing some attention to the cafeteria.

Mig is looking uncomfortable even if he's trying to put up that fake smile.

Oh... My poor Mig

"Elva, I know he's cute but you are keeping me standing"Ben interrupted my thoughts.

"Omg I'm sorry Ben. That's Fleur's brother"

"Really?" He asked.

"Yeah, let's go say hi"I said walking towards their table with Ben behind me.
