HIS WORLD

Chapter 5.School

Are you blind, or you just can't see where you're going?he said in his deep voice.

Sorry. I said in my small voice, looking at the floor.

I was about to run to my room, when Alex blocked me.

Aren't you supposed to be in school?

school? Oh, you mean the early morning etiquette class. I just finished not quite long.

Your father told me you got admission to college.

yes i did. I started dragging my words one after the other. Then...., the marriage stuff happened...... My... mum said that you ...wouldn't allow me to... Alex cut in. His expression was like I was blabbing like a kid. He used his left hand to clean his ear.

Get dressed, John will arrange who will take you to school.

Look Ale.. I was about to finish my pronunciation by calling his real name when John coughed.

sorry..sorry boss.John said

I have not registered yet. I said in a loud voice.

John has already taken care of everything. All you have to do is study.

Oh..... OK. I said, shaking my head.

I became excited but, I didn't want to show it. I was about to run to my room when he stopped me again. He gave a sign with his left hand. Immediately, everyone leaves, leaving me and him. I started shifting back. He smiled at me. I gave him a fake smile back.

Mary....you know what I hate most.

I shook my head to say no.

I hate when people touch my things, it makes my head explode. Don't say I didn't warn you. I am always watching. I watch him as he leaves.

This guy is really mentally unstable. Why would he tell me? I started mimicking him.

I rushed to my room with excitement. I am finally leaving this cage. I thought I would never be able to go to school because my mum told me once I got married, I wouldn't have time for education. But it looks like the universe has another plan for me.

Coming out of the house, I felt free like a bird, a black SUV car was parked in front of the entrance while a man wearing a suit was beside the car.

Good afternoon. I am your personal driver. My name is Ben.

I didn't mind him. I jumped inside the car with excitement. The car was about to move when I heard a knock at the window. The driver whined down.

She always ruins the happy moment. I murmured to myself.

Hey kiddo, your lunch. I collected the lunch bag from her. I gave her a fake smile.

Coming down from the car, I breathe in fresh air. I rushed to the registration table to register for my desire course, but I was told I had already registered.

Sorry,, ma. I think you are mistaken. I am supposed to study medicine, not business, and today is my first time here.

Your name is Andy Mary, right?

yes ma.

She clicked on her system, she looked at me. It said business class, which means you are studying business not medicine. Walk down the hall, your class is on the left.

Ma listen, I think you are mistaken… I was about to argue with her when a student cut in.

Hi.

I waved at her and continued my conversation. Ma, you are not following the protocol. My result in high school has nothing to do with business.... the student cut in again.

Hi...

What! Hi......hi...if you have anything to say, just say it because I have a lot of things to do! I yelled at her.

You are Andy Mary, right? She started looking at the piece of paper in her hand.

yes i am! Is there a problem!

I was boiling with anger, but she looked calm and not bothered by the way I was raising my voice at her.

Sorry, my name is Fiona. She stretched out her left hand for a handshake, but I didn't mind her.

and?

I am your study partner.

Study partner? Wow, can't believe I had a study partner for a course I didn't sign up for. Alex, thank you once again for ruining my life. I said angrily. I collected the paper in her hand, I stared at it, my name was written there boldly. I laughed dramatically. I folded the paper.

You know what? Nice meeting you. I will be back. I said, with an angry voice. I rushed to the car to meet Ben.

Did you know your boss's office?

You mean Mr John

Don't act dumb, you know who I am talking about.

I got inside the car and shouted at Ben.

Drive!

Getting to Alex's office, his secretary wouldn't allow me in. She said, Alex is having a meeting right now, but I wouldn't listen. I was so angry. I bashed in his office as the secretary followed me.

Sir I tried.. Alex cut in

No need. She is my wife. Let her be. He said calmly.

The secretary becomes shocked when Alex says I am his wife.

I don't know what kind of game you are playing, but don't play it with my educational life. Do you know how long I have been waiting for this moment?

Alex's phone vibrates, a message comes in "your wife is not pleased with the course you choose. Alex looked at his phone and dipped it into his pocket.

Educational life? Moment? Alex laughed.

You want to control everything. Every time I ask myself why did you marry me, now I know the reason, why, so you can control everything. That is why you choose a girl younger than you. You choose a course for me without consulting me.

Why do I have to consult you?

Because I am the one doing the studying, not you! I yelled at him.

Alex smirked. He stood up from his chair, he dipped his hands in his pockets. And what did you want to study?
