CHAPTER 12. AUNTY PAT IS HOME.

When they got home, Mrs Donald prepared supper and they ate before going to bed. In the morning after dinner Frank left home for school, when he got to his hall Larry called him and he went to sit with him before turning to greet Elizabeth,Ann,jane and Raphael. And that was when he discovered that John was not in school and asked if they have seen him around the school premise which they told him they have not seen since they arrive in school this morning. hearing that John has not been seen in school he was thinking maybe something came up and he was unable to come.

They talked for something before the bell rang for the start of teaching and when they were done with teaching, Frank left the hall with his new found friends to play in the school playground while they were playing,Ann suddenly asked Frank if he's leaving the state after they were through with their 8 grade examination. to which Frank told her that he will not be leaving and will be assisting his mother with her trade and he also asked them if they are leaving the state but to his surprise Elisabeth and Larry were leaving after the examination but they will be coming back during the beginning of highschool.

After break was over they started their afternoon teaching before closing for the day. Frank bid his friends good day before heading to John's place. When he got there, he rang the doorbell and Mrs Kovacs came to open the door upon seeing that it was Frank she smiled before saying. "Hello Frank how was school today"

"Good afternoon Mrs Kovacs, school was okay"replied Frank

"I know you will be worried about not seeing John in school today"said Mrs Kovacs

"Yes ma, I was shock to discover that John was not in school. it the first time it's happening, I hope he is doing well"asked Frank.

"Well you don't need to worry yourself about he, he just had a high temperature and we refuse to let him go to school"replied Mrs Kovacs.

"Oh, so how is he doing now"asked Frank

"He's doing much better now, why are you standing there come in". replied Mrs Kovacs while pulling Frank inside.

When he got inside Frank saw Mr Kovacs reading newspaper in the living room and he greeted him before heading to John's room. When he got to his room Frank surprise to see John playing game on his pc before saying. "Since you were not able to go to school ain't you suppose to study your note and when you come across any problem you take it to your father or mother for assistance yet you are busy playing game"

Hearing that someone was in his room without him noticing,John jump in fright before replying "Jesus Frank when did you get in here"

"Not quite long, how will you be able to noticed I came in when you are so focus on the game" asked Frank

"Hahaha, let forget about that and tell me what happened in school today"said John while

"Well we did a lot in class today, the guys are even worried about you not coming. They would have come along if not for the fact that they did take permission from their parents"

Hearing that the others were worried about his health makes him feel warm that there are people who still care about him aside from his parents. Frank walked and sat at his bed before taking out his notebook from his bag and said to John. "Since you were not in school today you might as well leave that game and come to study what we were taught today".

Hearing that they are going to study together again, John quickly put the pc to sleep before walking towards the bed and sat down close to him and they started learning. They studied for sometime before stopping and went to continue with the game.

While they were playing game upstair, Mrs Donald was with the Kovacs downstairs talking to them about letting Frank stay with them for a while that she is going to pick up his aunt from the airport which they agreed to and she thank them for their care towards their family before she left for the airport .

Back to John's room, Frank and John were still playing game and later they started getting tired of the game before they stop playing and left for the living room to watch anime.

It was getting to 6:00pm and Frank's mother was not back feeling that maybe his mother was still taking care of his father in the hospital and forgot to pick him up from the John, he decided to go home on his own but that was when Mrs Kovacs told him that his mother went to the airport to pick his aunty. When he heard that aunty pat is in the airport Frank became happy and quickly drag John to his room so that they can complete their homework before his aunty get home. It was already 6:55pm and Frank mother was still not back from the airport and Frank was already getting tired of waiting but that was when the Mrs Kovacs cell phone rang and she pick it up only to discover that it was frank's mother that was calling asking her if she could bring Frank home, which she agreed to before telling Frank to pick up his bag that she's taking him home.
