Chapter 6: Friend? Accomplished!

I hold unto his hand and we walked to the car.

Birring......!!!!!!!!!! My alarm rang and I turned it off immediately. I was already awake before it rings. I stand up from the bed and get ready for school. I walk out, locked my door and went to my bike. While I was unlocking my bike, I heard a voice.

"You won't need your bike today."

I turn and it was Skylar. He was standing behind his car.

"How you some ghost? how come I didn't notice your presence?"

"I'm sure you got your mind elsewhere I think."

"How long have you been here?"

He looked at his watch. "Seven minutes earlier."

"Why are you here?"

"To drive you to school."

"Why?"

"Let say yesterday I didn't thank you for saving my life and so I decided to come pick you up to school as an apology for not appreciating you help and also saying thank you."

"You save my life too remembered. So I owe you that favor too and since you owe me that make it even."

"Okay. So apologies accepted?"

"Sure." I unlocked my bike and climb on. "See you at school."

"You aren't coming with me?"

"Nope, drive safe."

"But I'm here already. We should go together, please. And besides, I have something to tell about last night."

"About last night? Maybe he knows something about the guys." I thought. "Alright, let's go, we're getting late."

I get down from my bike and locked.

We enter the car and zoom off.

I waited patiently for him to start saying what he knows about last night but looking at him, it seems he has forgetting. I could exercise patient anymore so I have to bring it up. "So, what do you want to tell me about last night?" I asked.

"Let get to school first."

We arrived the school premises. Alice and he friends was outside when we arrived. They saw Skylar car and stopped. Alice smile and wanted to go to Skylar but suddenly stop when she saw me coming down from the car. The smiles in her face faded away.

"What the heck is going on?" Eleanor asked surprised as the other.

"Wait, did she just get down from Skylar car? Like did they just come to school together? This is unbelievably insane." Eve added.

Walking with Skylar, I saw the three bitches glaring at me. Then, I double my steps and left Skylar behind. They glare even more as I walked pass them.

Alice then blocks Skylar way with her hand as he approached her.

"Let's go Eve." Eleanor said and pulls Eve away with her.

"What was she doing in your car? Why did guys come together in your car?"

Skylar look at her and then walk pass her with his hand in his pocket.

"Skylar I was talking to you!" She yelled but he ignored her. She went into the class angrily.

The mathematics teacher was already in the class before they walked in. He watch as Keisha walked in then Eleanor and Eve, and then Skylar. He thought that was all until Alice, suddenly walked in too.

"Why are you just coming?" He asked but was ignored.

"My period is almost ending and you are just coming. What if these came out in the exam, what will you do? Can you solve it? Answer me."

"Yes sir. I said." Keisha said.

"Really" He went to the board and wrote a question similar to what he taught. "Can you do the workings?"

I stand up boldly to the board and solved the question in less than two minute.

Everybody including him, was amazed.

He asked me some other few questions and I answered it all without wasting time. The own class was staring at me like I was some mathematics god and I loved the feelings.

"Please go back to your sit."

"Alice" He called. She ignores him but he roared again and she stands up immediately.

"What is the fuck is wrong with you?. What is answer to the question on the board?". The teacher asked her.

"No idea."

"No idea? It's always no idea. I feel pity for your future. You got nothing on your thick brain and you are happy with it. Always inactive."

"Skylar, do help us with that."

He stands up and stare at the floor like the answers was there.

I noticed he doesn't seem to know the answer so I quickly whisper it to him.

"2X²+4Y, sir". Skylar replied him quickly.

Mr. George was quiet. He wasn't expecting him getting the answer. He then asked another question and I whisper again to him which he told him.

"That's good. I really hope you keep it on. Alice you can make Keisha your private tutor if you really want to improve. That will be all for today." He picked his books and walk out of the class.

During lunch, I was going to the cafeteria to get something when Eleanor and Eve stop me, blocking my way.

"Hi Keisha, where are you heading to?"

I ignore them and continue walking but they block my way again. "We just asked you a question and trust me, I detest being ignored." Eleanor muttered.

"I'm heading to the cafeteria."

"That's right, it actually lunch time. We were also there too. You don't mind if we join you?"

"I do mind. I prefer eating alone. Please excuse me"

"Wait, we just want t to apologize for the other day. I mean the coffee thing. I'm sorry but you know, it was really fun, right Eleanor?"

"I guess that right." She giggled.

"Any ways, to apologize for what we did, we got you something."

"Apologize accepted. Thanks for whatever you got for me and keep it to yourselves."

"c'mon, we just apologize. Don't tell me you are still mad about that little joke. At least learn to take a joke.

"And you learn to make one." I repeated and walked pass then.
