Love beyond Sounds

Chapter Three

Mia

Oh s**t, I forgot you can’t talk. Draws a pen from his pocket, scrambles to find his way around and picks up a notebook, lying around, tore a piece out of it hands it over to Mia, and repeats where’s your phone and who locked you in here, female lead whose phone had been taken by the group of girl took the materials from his hand and scribbles I don’t have my cellphone on me on the piece of paper and hands it back to him. Jessy looked so flustered and irritated at the same time. Damn what did I get myself into. He hit the door multiple times but no one seemed to pay attention as it was recess and the hallway was pretty loud. He turned around and saw tears trailing down her eyes, she was feeling scared and helpless.

She was actually crying from the frustration she was facing at that moment. Jessy, who had empathy for women but whose empathy was also limited to his Mum,Two sisters and his girlfriend actually felt sorry for her. He had a tight knit relationship with his Mum. She was a stay home Mum who dedicated her time and her life to her kids especially her son. His sisters were twins and they were freshmen in high school. Jessy didn’t feel any affection towards Mia, he always saw her as slow and incompetent and judged her solely by her disability, he didn’t even care if she was smart or not, but he didn’t also like girls being bullied around him because his Mum faces domestic abuse and this makes him extra protective of the females in his household, this fact and also seeing Her face , the tears trailing down to her lips, her hands as she tried to wipe the tears and the little sunlight beaming through must have brought out the empathetic side of Jessy.

At that moment, he did feel bad for her.. "Was she always this pretty" he asked himself but it wasn’t anything serious as he was always used to being around pretty girls

Mia jolted as she was pushed around and turned by Jessy and she saw something splash on his clothes and touched her face. Mobing forward to him agitated and scared and saw stains all over his shirt made her eyes beam with fear, s**t!..who threw that he yelled and heard the receding footsteps, whoever threw that count your days he yelled.

Damn….was this attack against you, whoever threw that knew you where locked in here . I wouldn’t imagine Michael would try to do such a thing. Playing this lame prank is as far as his brain goes so who locked you in here. Jessy who was facing Mia and Mia having her back towards the wall had seen someone throw something through the window where light was coming in they,and since he was facing the window and looking at the female lead he had seen the incident occur and had turned the female lead away from the hazard and he got hit instead.

He picked up the paper again and this time sternly asked who locked you in here, she kept staring at him with tears still trailing down her face. He couldn’t see the face of the culprit and only saw her hands and knew it was a girl.she was flustered and refused to take the pen and paper and kept staring at him, he grabbed her by the shoulders and yanked at her to answer. I can’t tell him his girlfriend did this to me, he wouldn’t even believe me she said to herself. He went closer to her, what are you so scared about? We need to get out of here, I came in here because I heard a sound coming from this room and now I’ve been locked in here, it’s bad enough that I got locked in but I don’t want People to see me locked in here with you so tell me who Locked you in here, who did this to you, Answer me he screamed with fiery eyes

She was scared at this point and picked up the pen and scribbled Cassie’s name on the piece of paper, her hands shaking.. This left him speechless

No that can be true, my girlfriend wouldn’t even hurt a fly, she did that to you

You piece of s**t, you liar, you…

Heyyy..The door flew open , Mia who saw the door open immediately ran out pushing Danny who had come to their rescue.,

Hey Jess, what are you doing here, been looking for you,, hey, your shirts ruined what happened

Danny jus looked stunned still thinking about if Mia was saying the truth or not,

Yo, why you with her? Yall secretly dating or something .

Hell no the Jessy yelled, dating, I’ve got a girl, heard some weird noise, came in here, she was already locked in and someone outside locked me in also, the person who did that is gonna get it, see any faces, heard Micheals voice tho, imma teach him a lesson….

After school Mia walked on the pavement on her way home and took the longer route so she could walk past the beach. The sound of the waves always seemed to ease her tension and calmed her mind. She had a secret spot at the corner of the beach where people rarely go to and only the life guards knew about .She sat by the beach, took off her shoes and socks and slid her feet inside the waters. Gave out a satisfying smile and just sat there the quiet air whistling around her and the ocean waves emitting this cool air that was soothing.She kept listening to the waves and lost track of time

The smell of chicken in the oven fills Mia’s nose, scattering her bags for the keys and swinging doors open. She walks into her Mum in the kitchen prepping dinner, Hey Mum, Mia My God, , you look tired, what took you so long to get home.
