I know the rumour mill is already active and word got around that I got dumped, some people laugh and some make fun of me and others pity me but I carry my smile on my face I have nothing to be sad about so I will carry on being happy. I only have one 'friend' but I don't trust that gossip, she is my 'friend' because we share a desk for the whole year (confused, don't be we stay in class and the teachers rotate and come to us less traffic and no roaming around the halls for no reason the desks are long so two students each). After we walk in lines to our classes, single file think military. Connie rushes to my side as I prepare my note book "friend are you okay?" she asks in a concerned voice (like I will tell you how I feel), "Good morning Constance, I am fine thank you and how are you?" I say in a neutral tone. She carries on ignoring my question "I heard that Tali broke up with you and you cried while begging him to stay with you is that true?" (wow the imagination on this one or the school) I was about to answer when the teacher came in and began her lesson. I kept to myself till break my head was still killing me, so I went to the nurse. I know I picked up the pain killers so I took them along so she knew and could advise me. I was blocked by 3 witches on my way, really I mean it they pushed me and mocked me and teased me. I had a headache and no time for their games as a crowd formed as always and they pushed me dropping my pill case, I rushed to pick it up and place it back in my pocket. A couple of shoves and a teacher broke it up. I massaged my temples all the way to the nurse's office she gave me a pain killer and asked me to rest she will give me a note and I did I missed 1 period but it was my free period all I had to worry about was being late for the next class. When I got there people where already gossiping with Connie in the mix. I got to my seat and drank some more water to help me wake up. The headache was better but still there. It is almost lunch when my baby cousin (the crazy rebel who lives with grandpa on the school grounds) came to find me. "Grandpa wants to see you before service" he says in a bored tone, the class went silent "did he say why?" I asked the brat, " how will I know? I walked out while he was still talking, just like I'm going to do now," He walked off. I know he is a mess but he cares, 30 minutes into lunch I grew tired of girls in class trying to talk to me, I know what they want, they want to know what happened but how can they ask someone they never talk to. I mainly stick to chatting with Connie and the guys in class feel comfortable talking with me, but they also know not to pry so we are cool in that sense. I packed my stuff and walked grabbed my bag to walk off, " see you in church" I say to the guys who are eating in a group and talking the then turn to Connie and wave bye as I am about to leave. Ndivhuwo (he has a nephew in my class) comes in with the rest of the gang, I feel my headache start to make its presence known and I am about to walk out so with a smile on my face I leave them with a "Good afternoon, gentlemen," and walk past them. The class was quiet since they set foot inside and I was leaving anyway so no one can say I was running away, and I do not care.
