Are We Okay?

Chapter 25

I wait patiently in my car for Aisha, who should be here by now. I'm picking her up from school, which finishes at 3 and its 3:15 now. 

I call her phone again but it just goes straight to voicemail. I hang up and rub my forehead tiredly. All I want to do is go home and sleep at the moment, work at the hospital was super hectic. 

After an hour of waiting in the car, I get out and rub my face. I make my way into the now deserted school. Where is she? I walk to the secretary desk. 

"Sir, are you okay?" the lady there asks with a smile. I lower my gaze instantly. 

"Is Aisha Rahman here by any chance?" I ask politely. 

"Sir, the school is over, she would be gone, but I'll check for you," she says, then taps on the intercom. "Can Aisha Rahman come down to the office, please?"
