Unknown POV

"Sir, the car is ready" The driver informed me as he ran to open the door for me.

"Don't worry, I'll take a cab" I told him, I figured it'll be better taking a cab since it wouldn't attract attention, I don't wanna show up on my first day of school in a flashy car, maybe I just wanted to get rid of him it was very embarrassing when someone the age of your dad insists on carrying your things and calling you sir, not to mention the way he was dressed.

"But, sir..."

"Don't call me Sir, I have a name you know" I frowned, it just makes me feel kinda old seeing that he should be around forty.

  "No sir, I'd be in trouble with your Dad sir"

I groaned, so this is about Dad "Okay, just take the day off, I can take care of myself you don't have to follow me everywhere"

"Your Dad said not to leave you alone sir"

"Okay, I'll pay you double just take the day off, Dad doesn't have to know about it" I pleaded smiling sweetly, I'm tired of being bossed around by my dad like I'm some puppet or something.

"No sir, your Dad wouldn't approve of that" he replied quicklywithout even thinking about it, Gosh! Why does he have to be so difficult?

"Okay what if I triple it" I asked hopefully, maybe he would leave me alone.

He paused thoughtfully for a moment before saying No, a smile crossed my lips seeing that he did not say it as firmly as before I knew he was starting to bend.

"Okay what if I triple your pay and you get to drop me in school and pick me via a taxi?" I negotiated.

He thought about it for a while before agreeing to to take me but not without reminding me that his job was gone for good if my Dad got to know about it.

I let out a sigh of relief smiling at him gratefully.

I stepped out of the gate grinning widely, I waited patiently as Jeff flagged down a taxi.

I jumped inside excitedly without waiting for him to bargain with the driver.

I was gonna see her today, I brought out my phone and clicked on her picture, it was something I saved from Instagram, she was grinning  widely at the camera showing off her impeccable pearly whites, she was dressed in blue ripped high waist jeans, white crop top and a pair of high-top converse, simple but beautiful.

I sighed wistfully running my hands gently on her beautiful face.

I remembered the last thing I said to her the last time I saw her and I cursed myself mentally. I was damn stupid and foolish, I f**king broke her heart.

I can't believe I was that insensitive, she just lost her parents that time and I said did those things to her.

I groaned, my heart tightening as a feeling of guilt and regret washed over me, I remembered the hurt in her eyes when I chose Becca over her, the bags under her eyes, the pain in her eyes whenever she saw me and how she cried for days, I was blinded by the stupid infatuation I had for Becca.

But she still waited and hoped I'd like her back but I kept breaking her heart over and over again.

I didn't realise how much I loved her until she was gone, You just don't realize how much you want something until it's out of your grasp. I sighed sadly, I just hope I'm not too late and she'd forgive me after everything I did to her.

I stared at her picture once more bringing it to my quivering lips and kissing it, please wait for me I muttered under my breath before switching off my phone and sighing wistfully.

Jeff shifted uncomfortably close to me, I knew he wanted to say something probably cause of my mood swing, one moment I was all smiley and giddy then another I was frowning and moody, it's like he decided against it because he shut his mouth and faced the road, mumbling about how rough and reckless the driver was.

I was silently grateful for that cause I don't know what I would have said.

I noticed the stillness around me and I guess we had arrived at our destination. I hastily stumbled out of the car, I could feel the excitement bubbling inside of me as I approached the school gate, I chucked a thousand naira note at the driver not bothering about my change, all I wanted was to see her again.

I was just in front of the gate when Jeff called me.

"Uhm" I hummed absentmindedly staring at the gate.

"So I'll be going back now, when will you be closing?" He asked leaning against the taxi, he probably told him to wait for him.

"Erm... Like three or two, something like that" I said scratching my neck, "But sha come around three, if it's two I'll have to wait then" I said and he shrugged entering the taxi and telling me to expect him around three.

I nodded absentmindedly, I spun on my heel facing the school gate once again, my  excitement slowly wore off and my mind was reeling with thoughts of what if's.

What if she wasn't happy to see me?

Of course she wouldn't, who would after everything you've done to her? My subconscious snapped.

And there it was, the guilt came crashing down and all I could see or rather hear, was the hurt and pain in her voice the last time we spoke.

What if I'm too late?

Dammit, what if she'd moved on?

I don't think I could bear seeing her with another boy, I clenched my fists at the possibility.

See this one oh! Is that not what you did to her? You knew she liked you and you went ahead and dated Becca my subconscious mocked.

Shut up I said through gritted teeth.

Only because I'm right it teased.

Shut the fuck up I yelled attracting the attention of some students that were passing by. They were staring at me like I had grown two heads more like horns.

Well I don't blame them, it's not everyday you see an unfamiliar face shouting at himself in front of the school, pretty weird I know.

A dark skinned man that seemed to be in his early fifties stood at the front of a building his eyes searching for something in the crowd

I could tell the assembly just ended cause the compound was almost empty of students and the few students around were just coming in and hurrying to get to their classes.

I stared at the buildings in awe, these buildings are damn too beautiful for a school so cheap, I took in the unique beauty of the school my mouth hanging slightly open. It exceeded my expectations, not as beautiful as the other schools I've attended but it was not like what I expected. Hell I don't even know what I expected but surely not this! my roaming eyes met the searching eyes of the man from earlier, he was peering at every student  solemnly through his thick black rimmed glasses his face so serious that I was tempted to walk up to him and say  Mr man you no dey smile? Abi na you kill Jesus?

Just then his eyes met mine and his eyes lit up and a creepy grin appeared on his face as he made his way towards me.

"Hey! You must be the transfer student, it's a pleasure meeting you"

"And you too" I said smiling uneasily, his eyes narrowed for a second before putting his rehearsed smile back on, it was so quick that I thought I had imagined it.

I mentally smacked myself
You were supposed to greet, ode!

I smiled sheepishly at him, but he shook his head still smiling, you know when people say "you should smile more often, it suits you or you're stunning when you smile?" Well his would be the complete opposite, not joking! Aswear. His smile gives me the chills, I think he'd be better looking if he didn't smile at all.

I forced on a small smile as I listened to him rambling on about my dad's call and stuffs like that. No surprise there actually, leave it to my Dad to make sure his son was in safe hands without actually coming over.

Sounds like the best dad in the world to me.

Hope you took notice of the sarcasm.

"So I'll get a junior to show you to your class then, SS2 art and commercial class right?" He asked as he beckoned unto a young girl to come over.

She stumbled over hastily with a look of undisguised terror on her face, I nearly chuckled at the bewildered expression on her face probably wondering why the principal was calling her.

"Sir? I mean g -go -good afternoon, sorry morning sir" she stuttered nervously.

I glanced at her school bag and understood the reason for her apprehension, she was late and thought he wanted to punish her.

He seemed not to notice cause he went on anyway.

"Would you show Mr Williams here to his class?" He didn't wait for her to answer before adding "SS2 Art class" with what he thought was a pleasant smile.

"Yes sir" she said quickly, relief evident on her face.

"Have a good day then" he said dismissively.

"Thank you sir" She said walking ahead quickly probably praying he didn't notice she was late.

I shook my head before following her.

"Senior! That's the class" she said pointing to a class that was closed but I could still hear their deafening noise.

"Thanks" I muttered only to discover she'd ran off.

I smiled shaking my head as I turned towards the class.

I frowned slightly at the noise.

Art students!

They're the same every school you go.

I breathed in before pushing the door open, The class turned silent as everyone turned their attention to me, some were studying curiously while most breathed a sigh of relief probably cause it wasn't a teacher.

I ignored the pairs of eyes watching me intently as my eyes searched for the familiar brown eyes I had grown to love, I found her almost immediately since the students weren't that much probably about twenty, she was sitting beside Funke and a boy she was currently talking to, Almost immediately she turned as if noticing my stare.

A look of recognition crossed her face then she stared in confusion and disbelief probably wondering why I'm here, after getting a grasp of the situation her eyes filled with tears as she stared at me with hurt and anger before storming out of the class followed closely by Funke.

When Funke got to the door, she paused turning to glare at me before running after her friend.

"Brianna!!!"
