All was to no avail Raymond sneils wasn't someone who displayed himself online he was like a ghost.
All that was said of him was the fact that he's a young billionaire that usually amassed his wealth at a very young age but they were still in the dark about how much wealth he possessed.
He developed a rare talent at a very young age which got him to the stage of acquiring a lot of wealth and properties at an early pace of his life .
He had a past full of depression isolation and loneliness.
At this moment I couldn't do anything but feel pity and remorse for him on how he was able to surpass such a terrible stage at a very young age.
I couldn't help but feel for him which however didn't affect my discipline of minding my own business.
Raymond sneils paid a visit to my school and received a whole lot of pleasantries and attention which didn't have a tone on me I kept on going on with the task I had at hand.
Which was to welcome him with the college's anthem as one of the best performing art students who also had the most melodious voice.
The principal stepped forward to formerly welcome the young billionaire and asked rhetorically if he had a smooth trip coming down to ST Romeo's college he then went ahead to inform him of the brief song that was composed just to be sung to him on his arrival and asked if he would grant the honor of listening to them.
He obliged immediately, I was then giving the floor to present the song along with my colleagues to the young billionaire.
I obeyed without delay making my way towards the floor while my colleagues were doing all the things possible to get his attention.
I was the team lead so then I began, the room went silent so my voice travelled into every corner of the hall .
I wasn't paying attention to anyone as I have always made it a thing of practice to see myself as the only person in the room if I was to be in a position to present in the midst of such an audience.
At that moment I was too much synced into the lyrics until I heard a loud jam of hands echo all through the hall.
I stopped to look and realised it was the young billionaire himself everyone went silent for some seconds until they all joined the young billionaire to give a resounding applause.
I felt my legs tremble my heart pace and sweat running down my chin as quickly as possible.
Have never felt like that since I was born.
I almost didn't realise I was already staring at him while he did likewise. I caught the glance immediately to make my way out of the hall. Back at my locker while trying to pick up a few things I realised the room that was quite occupied went all mute I turned around to look then found the young billionaire staring directly at me. I could do nothing at that point my heart stopped for a while it felt like I was carrying the whole universe on my shoulders. At that moment I couldn't stop thinking why was he here ? What could have made him come all the way here ? ....
His eyes all fixed to me. it looked all intentional. it was like he was passing a message indirectly. He stood for a couple of seconds with utmost composure until he finally spoke. My legs lost its grip all I wanted was for him to say something. I couldn't handle the eye contact for much longer.
But then....
