Must Read: INTERMISSION (The Love) - Season 1 - Episode 7

I got to the class smiling like the owner of the universe, Frank was seated in his favourite position when i entered, i distributed the test script to the class going to my seat

Frank: go and call that girl

Me: which girl?

Frank: haha.. See this mugu oooo. Tracy of course
“oh” i said as got up and walk to Tracy’s seat and told her to come to our seat which she obliged before i returned to my seat ****it was some minutes to break time that was why we have all time to ourselves**** In some seconds, she walk to us with a smirk on her face. Frank eyed me and wink and immediately, my brain jumped, i felt like i was been pierced through the heart. My heart was beating faster, even usain Bolt cannot march the speed, but one thing is sure, i must man up

Me:***with trembling and cracking voice***

Tracy, see i really don’t know how to put it.

You are just too beautiful and i want you to be my friend.

Tracy: but we are already friends, the best of friends for that matter

Frank: not what he meant. He means that he found you as attracting as making you closer to him always. He wants you to understand him and will always make you happy. Just take a look at it, both of you are always seen together and some people are even thinking that both of you are dating. Life is not as beautiful as it seems and you have to allow some specific things to happen to you in the best way. What i am trying to say in excess is that he wants you to be his girlfriend

****i was like “this dude will be a great rapper”*** silence befalls us for not less than three minutes

Tracy: hmmm….

Frank: This is not the matter of huming, you just give him a chance to prove his love for you

Tracy: i will think about

Frank: there is nothing to think about, that is just wasting of time moreover, you have to make him happy

Tracy: please just do give me time to ponder over it

Frank: no

Tracy: you haven’t said anything here since ***she said referring to me*** please i will reach to you tomorrow

I just kept mute because i don’t actually know what to say. It seem to me that i was in the dark

Frank: okay then but try and keep to your words

Tracy: i will try. See you guys around ***she said with smile before walking away***

Frank: i hope i were with phone to capture your face while you were talking ***he said after she was gone***

Me: what was wrong with my face?

Frank: the smirk on your face was very funny, you looked more harassed than i ever seen, it was an almighty power that prevented me from laughing my brain out.

Me: yeah! I know that the only thing you are good at doing is just laughing at any slightest thing, idiot. Anyway, thank you for your help
Frank: idiot! What are we friends for?
*******************************************************
Getting home that day, i was totally relieved and very elated. When i thought that my will be getting bad was when everything changed for the best. I began to whistle celindion’s power of love as i wash my school uniform, i never felt hungry despite the fact that i haven’t eaten since morning and i was very surprised myself; though i don’t eat much, i can’t stay for four hours without eating
Well, i couldn’t learn before going to bed that night. The following morning, i got to school early, frank was yet to come. When it became obvious that he will not be coming to school that day again, i picked up my phone to call him

Me: guy howfar

Frank: good ***i can sense discomfort in his voice***

Me: what is wrong?

Frank: my dad is critically ill

Me: what? What is wrong with him?

Frank: i don’t know ooo. The doctor said that he was suffering from asthma

Me: asthma? In what hospital are you guys?

Frank: Silver Memorial General Hospital

Me: okay, i will come over there when school dismiss before going home (the hospital was just a stone throw from where i lived)

Frank: okay then

I was actually disturbed not only because his father was sick but because i still need his help. Tracy told me that we will talk when returning from school because she has to help her dad in some stuffs. Soon after the break period, a junior student walk up to me, telling me that our mathematics teacher need my attention. I abandoned what i was about doing and went to her office

Me: good day ma

Maths Teacher: hope you remembered what i told you yesterday? Why didn’t you come since this morning?

Me: ma i am very sorry, i was very busy

Maths Teacher: busy that you cannot even remember about me?

Me: not like that ma, i planned seeing you after break and was arranging my books to come when your messenger arrived

Maths Teacher: okay then, you can have a sit ***she said pointing at the visitor’s sit in front of her desk***

I readjusted the seat a little backward before sitting down. She drew some shelf of script in front of me

Maths Teacher: you can help me mark those test using that format over there
***she showed me another sheet of paper which contains the solutions to the test question with the assigned marks for each question written in front of each question. I immediately set out for work. For the past ten minutes, none of us spoke a word, more minutes later

Maths Teacher: i want you to tell me more about yourself

What did i just heard? Or are my ears deceiving me? I actually don’t have to say anything
*******

What will happen between me and the maths teacher?

Will it be positive or negative?

Or will it later turn sour?
