Mrs Graz called my wet nurse later on to inform her of my whereabout, my parents picked the call, wow! It happened that my parents were home. I couldn't wait to go and meet them that is if they will be there when I come back the next day.
The next day, I woke up around 7:20am African time. I screamed. I will be late to school.
I looked around, George want there .
Has he gone to school? I asked myself
Just then the door opened and George walked in with a tray of food, wearing his school uniform.
I thought you won't wake up again he giggled
breakfast is ready, u better go brush and bath.
I ran inside the bathroom and did the needful. It was when I wanted to wear my school uniform that realized that I didn't wash them, I nearly fainted.
Just then I heard George saying something.
Are you searching for your school uniform?
yes..yes I almost shouted confused.
well, I washed and ironed them last night, you can get them from the drawer.
wowwww! I rejoiced

He came and stood in front of me

His voice changed

He laughed and whispered

The driver drove us to School but George told the driver to stop us miles before the School gate.
As we stepped out of the car, George gave me some money.
Use it and buy some snacks during break. I collected the money and he said
Once we enter the School gate, I don't know you and you don't know me, you should go your way he said and hurried away.
He joined a group of guys ahead of us
while I entered the crowd .
I wondered why he behaved like that, is he shy or does he have a girlfriend here in School?
Later in the evening, Mrs Graz called my wet nurse and asked me over.
When I came they secretly ushered me to Thesia's room and gave me a brand new phone and a designer school bag.
I was happy and grateful.
we just want to make friends with you, feel free with us okay? Thesia said
I nodded kinda shyly.
Then I wondered how they got to know about my lost phone and School bag. I also wondered why they brought me no other things apart from those. Did George tell them? If he didn't then who did.
I doesn't matter joor, after all because of wasn't dreaming of having a phone again and a bigger one for that matter so soon.
And my School bag was going to wait till my parents come back but then they made everything easier and faster for me, I was grateful.
