DEREK'S POV
"Puff, thank goodness. I can finally get the break I do badly need," I said as soon as the school bell rang, heaving a sigh of relief. I yanked my bag dein across the table as I rose to my feet. My palms rubbed against each other as I found my way out of the classroom. I had moved only a few inches when a crowd of people from nowhere rushed at me. I was stunned and for a minute, I tried to process what was going on. My eyes gave testimony to how I felt at that moment.
"What's going on? Why do you all look like you have seen a ghost?" I snapped. I wasn't ready for whatever they were trying to come up with. All I wanted was to get home and relax. It's been an hectic day especially with my aunt acting like the entire world was crashing on her because I had a little fun.
