Since I wasn't feeling hunger at that moment I went back to my seat after talking to Jennie. Keenan turned to look at me but I just ignored him since he sometimes behaved like he wasn't part of the class.
"I guess the issue has finally been solved", he finally spoke. He had been quiet for sometime now so I wondered why he was now talking to me.
"Urhm.. what do you mean?", I asked because I wasn't getting what he was trying to say.
"The issue between Ryder and Jennie is what I'm taking about", he made his point clear now. Seriously the guy never seize to amaze me. It's like he has satellites positioned in every corner of the school making it easy for him to detect things going on.
"Everything is normal ", I simply answered trying not to sell myself out since he was always acting weird.
"You mean after all I told you, you still didn't tell her about what Ryder felt for her?", he asked while maintaining the same expression he always puts on.
" It's all settled now", I was just trying to be cold towards him since that was his personality too.
"That's sounds encouraging to hear but there's another bigger problem going to stare up, just get prepared for it", he said and placed his head on the table.
'Is this guy a fortune teller or does he have any special abilities to read people's mind and predict the future?', I thought to myself
"I don't have special abilities so stop thinking, I just know what's going to happen next since I've been in this school and known Ryan longer than you", he said startling me. He just answered the question I had in mind and he's telling me he has no special abilities?
Very soon the lunch break was over and the students started flooding the class once more. Class continued as usual till the school day ended peacefully. When everyone walked to get or drop something in his or her locker, an announcement was made from the school's broadcasting room saying mid semester exams will be starting next week Monday and that study groups were to be formed. I wasn't surprised at the news but some people were mumbling since they hated writing exams. The announcer also said they had already formed the study groups but in case a student is not comfortable with her group members, there was still time to change.
The only thing I wished for was that, I wouldn't be put in the same group with so many guys which would make me feel uncomfortable. I gave the car keys to Jennie and asked her to wait in the car while I go and talk to the principal and she obeyed quietly.
I knocked at the door immediately I got there and he asked me to come in.
"Hello Mr Gupta", I greeted him.
"Hello Miss Ash, how is your stay going?", he asked while signaling me to sit.
"So far so good sir", I smiled at him.
"That's good to hear…, what brings you to my office?", he finally asks.
"I just heard about the mid semester exams and the study group so I wanted to check my group members.
"That's a good initiative Miss, you make quick choices just like your mother", he said and I just smiled even though I was curious as to how he knows my mum's personality. "Anyways, you are in the same group with Jennie, Ryder and Keenan ", he said with finality.
""But sir, with Jennie I agree but Keenan and Ryder…Ryder, sir it's unbelievable ", I was confused why he made such a choice. I understood why Jennie was in the same group with me and even Keenan maybe that would help but Ryder was someone else. 'Why did he decide to separate Ryder from his squad?', I was really confused and angry because the man's expression had no doubt in the decision he made.
