“ She certainly is “ every one stared at the direction of the voice and is no other than BLAZE , I rolled my eyes immediately I realise it was him
“ Blaze what a great surprise to see you here “ Mr Hart said smiling, I guess they already know each other
“ Indeed “ Blaze said all the while staring at me
“ Jasmine what do you have to say about this?“ Mr Hart asked now looking at his daughter who couldn't say anything, she just hung her head down together with her friends
“ Don't Lali deserve an apology?” Blaze said still looking at me
“ I can't believe this Jasmine, now you three apologize to Layla “ Mr Hart said, not a smile on his face , causing Blondy to look at her father with disbelief
“ WHAT , they would do no such thing, she should be the one apologizing for what she did to them “ Blondy mother said glaring daggers at me
“ Stay out of this Priscilla “ Mr Hart said to his wife
“ You're unbelievable” Priscilla said walking out in anger , the whole time glaring daggers at me
“ You three apologize to Layla or prepare to leave the school for good “ Mr Hart said
“ I - I - we are sor-ry “ Jasmine said with gritted teeth while eyeing me to which I smirked
“ Apology….. Accepted Blondy “ I said smirking while she clenched and unclenched her jaw
“ Thanks for letting me know Blaze “ ‘WHAT’ “ sorry everyone for whatever happened just now and Layla you're free to sit anywhere” Mr Hart said earning a smile from me , I looked back and I couldn't see Blaze I guess has gone …..
Every one was already gone
“ Ms Trinna I'll like to talk to you in private” the principal said once we were out
“ Layla wait for me by the car “ Aunty Trinna said . I guess no classes today since this whole incident happen , I went down stairs to the hallway that leads outside, and I could feel some one following me
“ Why are you following me?” I asked ,vi don't need to look back to know it's Blaze , somehow I could feel it was him
“ I'm not “ He said now walking beside me .
I was now outside heading towards the gate and he was still following me what does he want?
“ You said your not , but you're still following me” I said now outside the school as I leaned on the car staring at him , he just stood outside the gate , his hands in his pocket
“ I come out here sometimes” he said still looking at the trees and distant mountains
“ Why?” I asked not knowing why all of a sudden I seem interested in whatever he wants to say
“ It feel good staring at the mountains” He said his gaze now on me , I don't know why I feel this sudden chill , I turned back and also looked at the mountains, and somehow it feels good with the air , then I turned to face him still looking at me
“ Have you been to the seventh mountain before?” I asked , I don't know why I even asked , he stared at me for what seems like hours
“ No . But planning to “ he said not once taking his eyes off me
“ You?” He asked again
“ Planning to” I said now looking back at mountains
“ I've heard a lot about the seventh mountain and ever since I was little I've always wanted to go there, but aunty Trinna says it's dangerous” I said half smiling at the thought of going there
“ One day I'll go up there” I said still half smiling , as I looked back at Blaze
“ They say if one makes a wish when the brightest star is out it is likely to come true” Blaze said looking at the mountains
“ the brightest star will be out today” he said again
“ How do you know?” I couldn't help but ask
“ I've seen it before” he said
“ What do you wish for” I asked even if I'm not suppose to, he stared at me
“ What would you wish for?” He asked instead
“ I have a lot of things to wish for , some of them are impossible to come to” I said smile thinking about my parents I know nothing of
“ When you see it, choose your wish wisely. Wishes come from the heart and not the mind” he said ‘ what?’ before I can say anything he left , what does it mean by when I see it , I was just standing there lost in thoughts when aunty Trinna came
“ Let's go home dear” she said smiling at me and I smiled back. We got into the car and the driver drove off all the while , I was lost in thoughts about what Blaze said some minutes ago….
