Chapter Four
They were quite late for class, Mrs.Beneatha's class was almost over when they arrive. As Goldsmith was playing the acoustic guitar, the girls wouldn't stop their blush and drools, the guys were having series of emotions rushing through their blood. As Mrs.Beneatha was impressed, so was Kate. She wasn't someone who goes out much, she's the indoor type and she's only heard David play... the 'wow' word escaped her lips with an amused smile but that came to an end when she heard Mrs.Beneatha's voice.
"You five are quite late for my class. May I know why?" Mrs.Beneatha asked.
"May we come in please?" Jeremy asked diverting from the question while the girls drooled. Who wouldn't! He's tall, cute, beautiful face, has this charming grey eyes, gorgeous lips, well built, broad shoulders. He smiled out and some gasped dramatically holding their chest.
"Yes, you all may come in." She said with a stern face.
"Thanks ma." They said. On getting inside the lecture hall, there was an uproar from the students. Kate's straight dark chocolate hair was becoming popular than the owner, Jeremy's swept his dirty blonde backwards with his fingers giving the girls flirty smiles and winks, Katerina tolled her eyes. Gregor entered with his head held high, his golden brown eyes defined his status, his gelled black hair made him look so long like but who would know unless he tells them, Constance was feeling a little bit over the edge, she felt so nervous, she sighed heavily.
"So why are you guys late for my class?" Mrs.Beneatha asked.
"We.... uh..."Kate cleared her throat, gulping down nothing. The class wasn't hot but she was feeling hot, the gaze she was receiving was just too much, she thought she was about freezing but Katerina came to her rescue.
"We're new here and mhen finding this department was so f*****g difficult....we went through alot of accidents, teacher beautiful imagine almost getting hit by a cab, gosh...." She blabbered rubbish from getting hit by a cab to a taxi then a train and then helicopter, Goldsmith clapped.
"Wow...that was the best lie ever. And dearest sister 'We are all bound to live. we shall not die' praise the Lord!"Goldsmith joked. Katerina found him perfect while Jeremy was sending secret glares at him, Goldsmith eyes were fixed on both Mary and Kate which made Kate uncomfortable.
"Dear brother we shall not die'! Hallelujah! Amen! You see the aeroplane was so close to killing but my angel saved me. That's my testimony, silver black haired beautiful teacher." Katerina said then flaunt her hair with pride having a fist bump with Goldsmith.
"I've had an earful of garbbage, please introduce yourselves to the class let's continue or do we need that?" Mrs. Beneatha asked.
"Are you kidding us? Hell yeah! Hello suckers I'm Mary Tony Diggory. You heard the last name Diggory...you wanna know why it's Diggory? I dig graves for losers. Kisses." She said blowing kisses, Goldsmith blushed.
"This is gonna be fun." He thought staring at Mary as she smiled catwalking to sit at the back. He wouldn't say she's busty but she's gorgeous, sexy in a crazy way, hotter than hot. A beautiful shape, round hips, a nice backside and attractive front....okay... she's kind of busty but very attractive.
"Jeremy George Murchison. I love y'all. I love putting some fuckers in their places. I'm very nice and calm no doubt but I'm really dangerous try not to get into my blacklist book because I've got a whole lot of books at him...gosh my dad is really an educationist. And do you know what I love most?" He asked but some of the girls were lost staring at his face as his moving lips.
"No!!! Tell us more!" The alive crazy ones screamed at him.
"Holes."He smirked, Katerina choked on her breath, Constance and Gregor kept disgusted faces while Mary smiled at him to continue Kate wasn't an exception because she was staring at him with eyes wider than wide.
"Gosh, he makes me wanna puke." Constance said.
"Dad would yell at us if he finds out the kind of person Jeremy is." He chuckled but Constance was taking it lightly. She was getting mad but why was she?
"Katerina George Hinderson. Sexy and hot I know. I'm good, I'm cool, I'm fine to be with, I welcome everybody but not two-faced, I kill them." She said expressionless, everyone gasped making faces but slowly, slowly, slowly she let out a creepy smile, Jeremy was laughing inwardly. He knew why she said those words and he knows that smile, he's dead for sure then she turned glaring hard.
"I'm Gregor Younger Walter."
"Constance Younger Walter."
"Kate Charles Hastings I hope I get treated well." She mumbled the last part, some scoffed.
"Go sit, please." Mrs.Beneatha said then shook her head knowing that she'll be having more headaches than usual.
"Let's continue. So here's what we're gonna do tomorrow in class, Antonio you'll do a solo with your piano this time 'UNFAITHFUL by Rihanna, Mary you'll show us how good you are with the clarinet, Gregor you'll play the saxophone I wanna see how talented you are because your profile is giving excellent. Constance I heard you can play the grand piano very well so you'll show us some exclusive talent tomorrow." She said, Gregor and Constance were groaning cursing their dad inwardly. Antonio wasn't bothered at all maybe he'll use this song to send a message all he have to do is hope it reaches the person. Kate was so nervous when she heard her name, she jolted out of her thoughts then stood up all eyes fell on her...she stood there lost not knowing what was going on.
"Yes miss?" Mrs.Beneatha asked adjusting her lenses.
"I..uh..no no no.. nothing ma'am. I just wanted to stretch. Hmm." She punched and kicked the air as everyone laugh.
"So Kate will sing FADED by Alan Walker and Katerina will break dance. That will be all for today." She said in a dismissal tone. Kate cringed she can't sing not like she can't sing, but she just can't sing there are too many of them what if she froze as always.
Some years back, she had this enthusiastic spirit, she could do whatever she liked, she could sing and scream wherever and whenever she liked, he wanted her to pursue her dream of becoming a famous singer but mom was against it, we never knew why..all she always said was 'I can't do it and I'm to little.' Sometimes I do think that she's jealous of my voice but if I knew better I wouldn't have asked him to get me registered for that Singapore competition. She was the next contestant to sing after number 35 she was quite early, everyone wanted to win. Who wouldn't? 250,000$ was something a child of her age can't even make although her family was rich but she wanted the world to hear her voice, she wanted to be heard.
"I'm going to get you some biscuits, okay? So you'll go out there and sing. Make big brother proud, you get me? And after the competition I'll get you that purple bicycle you saw on the net." Ken said smiling lovingly.
"But what if I don't win, Kenny..you won't get me the bicycle anymore." Her tiny voice said as she pouted sadly.
"Even if you didn't win, I'll still get you your bicycle, okay? Now smile for Kenny." She smiled, he pat her head then left to get the biscuits on his way back, she was waiting patiently for him to come, she has been called thrice before her dad urged her to go.
"Come didn't come to watch me sing." She mumbled sadly.
"Miss Kate Charles Hastings you're up." One of the judges said to her through the microphone, she sighed 'but where's Kenny' she had begun to gather in her eyes.
"This song is dedicated to my Kenny." She started as the audience gave her puppy eyes. Ken was struggling to survive at least to witness her sing while Kate was waiting for him to come witness her sing too.
"You heard our plan to kill the girl so you have to die." The men said to him as he ran as fast as he could holding his bleeding stomach.
"Kat.. Kat..wait few more seconds big brother is coming." He murmured and he got there finally tears of joy escaped his eyes.
"That's the guy and the girl. Let's finish them off, only boss's daughter must win this competition." One of them said aiming his gun at Kate but Ken was fast enough to hug her receiving it in her stead.
"Kenny..." She whispered as the tears fell freely.
"Sweetheart, no matter what happens just know your big brother loves you alot and he's willing to do anything for you. You'll have to sing, let the world hear your voice, you'll become that star." He said weakly, Kate was wailing loudly, another gunshot was heard, Ken gave out a sharp gasp, blood came out of his mouth.
"Kenny! Kenny please open your eyes! I promise to be a good girl from today, I won't laugh at you anymore, I won't disturb your kingly sleep again please wake up." She cried, he fell lifelessly as his blood flowed everywhere. She was scared of blood, she hated the sight of it but then she's seeing a river of it, her Kenny's blood, she blacked out.
