THE DIVULGENCE

Three hours and fifty-two minutes later,

We regrouped near the Lake of Gator.

All of us were present on time,

Except the one who did the crime.

 

After one or two minutes,

He arrived counting his own digits.

"I'm back guys," he yelled.

"Ready to divulge," we propelled. 

 

"What am I supposed to divulge?"

He asked that with a small nudge.

 He acted like he forgot the promise, 

But he can't trick us!

 

He can't trick us as we aren't novice.

 

Then the divulgence began,

We asked the same questions again.

Initially, he had a tiny hesitation,

But then he faced the interrogation.

 

"What's her name?" asked Sam.

"Where is she from?" queried Larry.

"When did you met her?" questioned Abu.

"Why didn't you say this?" quizzed Yue.

 

We asked many things continuously,

He answered a few instantaneously.

But most probably and repetitively,

He said 'I don't know' exclusively.

 

He didn't know her real name.

He didn't know her whereabouts.

"I met her at the tuition," he said.

"Which tuition?" we asked in chorus.

 

"The weekend tuition," he replied.

"Hold on Mr. Romeo!" heckled Sam.

 

Sam claimed, "We know the venue."

"We know what?" puzzled Shen Yue.

"That's the weekend tuition we all go,"

Sam roared while kicking his toe.

 

 

"We all attend the same tuition,

We sit together in that institution,

Is this a part of your imagination?

You are bound to give an explanation."

 

We demanded him to explain himself.

 

That's the moment when he started,

He started to reveal the real story.

This time he wasn't hiding the emotion,

Instead, he conveyed it with dedication.

 

Then he commenced his speech.

 

"Do you guys remember that day?

The day prior to the big match,

The only day I was late to the tuition,

The only day we arrived separately."

 

"Yes, we do reme… Oh, sorry go on."

 

"That's the day in which I saw my fairy.

She was rushing like the waves of the sea,

She was rushing to the tuition same as me.

I wanted to say this to you but … I'm sorry."
