Chapter 9|Guidance counselor
We took a taxi to the house after leaving the hospital. Fortunately, Jannah still has enough money to cover our fare. I also assisted her in carrying our bags because she was carrying the fruits. It's also heavy.
"Nah, is your brother here?"
I opened the gate, and she was the first to enter.
"He still has classes, Sha." He'll be home around 6:30 p.m."
We were still outside when I noticed Auntie come out.
"It's great to have you here. Are you okay, Ayisha? How do you feel? " Auntie asked as she approached and groped me.
"Hahaha! I'm fine, Aunt. "Don't worry," I said, trying to lighten Auntie's mood.
How could she have known what had happened? She was very curious.
"Hmmm... Aunt, how did you find out about what happened? "
She took the bag I was carrying and we went inside.
"This morning, your cousin called me. I wanted to go, but I had a walk earlier, so I told her to keep an eye on you and not leave you." Jannah's bag was placed on the chair.
She's actually my cousin, and she's very nice to me. I returned my attention to Jannah.
"Thank you, Nah," I said, and she returned my smile.
"Thank you, Caz. By the way, Mom, it's up to you where you put the fruits! Ayisha and I will just get dressed," she said, leaving the fruit on the table.
"Come on, Sha," she said as she entered the room first. I followed Jannah inside because I was sticky and stinky.
Before getting dressed, I shut the door. I was getting dressed and thinking about tomorrow. What may occur tomorrow? Why was I suddenly sad? Heyyyy. Here's that feeling of being suddenly sad for no apparent reason. Is there nothing there? If there is, I have no idea what it is.
"Why are you so quiet, Sha? "
What's wrong with my cousin, can't I just be thinking about something? I smiled at her.
"Nah, I'm just thinking about something."
"I'm thinking about tomorrow," I sighed as I approached the door.
"All I'll do is drink some water. You just follow so we can eat," I said as I exited the room and went to the kitchen.
"Come on, Sha, eat."
Aunty had already prepared food.
"All right, Aunty."
Jannah came out of the room and sat next to me after I drank some water and sat in front of the table.
We were just talking about what was going on at the Academy while we were eating, but not about Chonggo, who always embarrasses me.
I ate quickly because I had lost my appetite. Jannah took my medication, and I took it as well. Jannah also washed what we had eaten before we returned to the room and lay down on the bed.
Jannah fell asleep quickly, most likely due to exhaustion. My poor cousin, she's like that because of me. Is my presence a burden? What if I simply leave here so they don't have to deal with me? I still have medicine and medication maintenance. But Jannah must be sad when I leave.
I was in the middle of such an event when my phone began to vibrate. I took it from the mini table and looked to see who had texted.
Unknown phone number: How are you doing? Always look after yourself, Ayisha. Every time I see you cry, it hurts me. "Good night."
What the! Miracle and I were not referred to as clowns. Who exactly is this stalker? What difference does it make? He? Is it painful for me to cry? Is he aware of my tears? Was he present when I chastised Kian? Did he notice us? Argghhh! Who exactly are you? Why are you so enigmatic? How did he get my phone number? I have so many questions, but no one can answer them.
I simply placed my phone back on the mini table and sat down to sleep.
TOMORROW
The students stared at Jannah and me when we arrived at the Academy. What's going on? What gives them that appearance? I turned to Jannah and spoke quietly.
"Nah, how can they look at me like that? It's as if I've done something wrong."
She approached me and whispered as well.
"What happened to you and Kian yesterday is all over the Academy, and you know how much gossip there is."
Is that why they can appear that way?
God! It's a pity. What if they discover I slapped Kian? They might expel me from the Academy. I sincerely hope not.
We simply ignored them. Jannah and I said our goodbyes after I reached the third floor. Because her schedule is different when MWF, we only have TTH classes.
I entered the classroom after Jannah had left. Fortunately, there are currently no instructors.
"Ayisha, what happened yesterday? You were gone all day," Sarah asked.
"We heard you were taken to the hospital as a result of Kian. Is that true? "
Many students have asked me what happened, and who wouldn't be a gossip if the Academy's heir was involved?
I don't want to give any information, so I remain silent; they would have asked more questions if our teacher hadn't arrived.
Our class has begun, but I'm still floating. I was just astounded by the instructor, but I couldn't understand a word she said. After a while, the door burst open, and the two men were thrown out.
"Ayisha has been summoned to the Guidance Counselor, Ma'am."
Why was I summoned? Did I do something wrong?
"Ayisha, you may leave." I quickly put on my bag and nodded to Ma'am as I exited the classroom.
As I approached the Counselor's office, I was nervous. Why was I summoned? What am I to blame? Couldn't this be about what happened the day before?
I just sped up my steps to find out why I was summoned. I turned to the right, where the Counselor's office is visible.
I knocked three times in front of the door before finally going inside.
"Ma'am, good morning."
I'm now directly in front of her. I was even surprised because I assumed the counselor was quite young, but from what I could see, she appeared to be gay. Her hair looks exactly like a wig.
"Please take your seat, Ms. Duffel," she says, even her voice sounding gay.
I took the seat directly in front of her. Please, Lord, assist me. I'm worried.
"Why did you call me, Ma'am?" I inquired nervously.
I can't wait to find out why. She took her first sip and looked me in the eyes.
"I called you because I discovered you slapped the Academy's heir, and as a result, your scholarship has been revoked."
What?! What? Is my scholarship gone?
"But why?"
Because of the news that greeted me, I stood up. It's not possible! My scholarship will be revoked solely because of this! Kiannnnn!! This is entirely your fault!!
Keep an eye out for Chapter 10!
