It's 3:30pm now and I have been at the car's parking lot waiting for ray to come pick me up. I couldn't even locate his car among the fleet of cars crowding the parking lot.
Maybe ray already left like we've drawn an intimate line btw ourselves immediately after the honor.
I looked around and No student was around everyone already gone home except the ones at the staff room signing.
I was about to leave when someone called me. "Sylvia!!!" I killed a step thinking was ray and I turned to look at who it was.
I saw Joan and Clara heading to where I was. "Are you Guys still in school?" I Asked surprise.
"Yeah we didn't get to round off our project on time what about you, what are you still doing in school?" Joan Asked formally.
"I have been waiting for ray to come pick me up but my feet are already hurting maybe he isn't coming." I said glancing at my watch.
"Aishh!! Too bad." Clara exclaime
"Ray??" I bellowed with tears tickling in my eyes. Ray sprung his head to gaze at me and I stoop down.I gazed at his reddish puffy eyes that was when I realize the gas circulating the premises.It was stinging with burning sensation in my eyes.It's intoxicating capable of killing someone.I sat on the bare floor and took ray on my arms. "Ray so it's you who was wheezing?" I asked with my tears rolling down my cheeks.He managed to keep his eyes open although still wheezing and gasping for air. "So it's you again s..Sylvia?.. i__i thought I would die but I never knew that my s
..Soon we arrived at the hospital's block. The cab man slowly drove in.I called for an alarm and I saw some nurses rushing down. I pushed the door open and jumped down from the cab."Please help us." I said immediately and left the door open for the nurses to bring ray out.I joined hands with them and we carried ray out of the cab.A stretcher was immediately rode down and ray was place on it.I payed the cab man his bills and he drove off.I followed the nurses who was riding ray on the stretcher.
"To...to...to see ray's improvement" I stuttered with throaty voice."I have told you to keep off from my son ray? My family is already in disaster now and I don't welcome any intruder like you." He growled."But I did nothing wrong right? I don't have any bad intentions." I defended staring into his eye balls.He laughed wickedly.I looked away."You this brat what did you do to my son. Huh? Based on the information I got, you were the only one with him when the incident happened so start talking." He said."Maybe you misunderstood the information ℹ️ I did
"Yes I would. But..." I was saying complaisantly when he hushed me."But Nothing you are staying." He declared pulling me downward.Through so much pressure, I considered ray's request.I decided to stay back.Mr Gary's couldn't contain his anger so he stormed out irately.I felt my chest calming down and I stopped trembling.Ray's mum welcomed the idea that I stay back.Soon everyone left, the nurse, doctor and Mrs Susan remaining me and ray in the ward.
ray's POV"But why do I still feel sudden pains strikes through my chest?" I whined"It's a normal tendency ray. It could be that the gas is still swirling in your system but with the help of the cannula, you'll gradually be relieved." Mum said and sat down.She placed her palm on my fore head feeling my temperature. Then she moved her fingers to my hair and started tousling my hair."Ray you always makes me worry..." mum whined with a smile."But anyway I am so happy that it wasn't that serious Sweedy" mum cheered and pecked my fore head.I giggled."But mum when did th
Antonia's POV,When I learnt about what happened to ray on net, I had to retain my phone from my mum and that was how I called Susan.When she told me everything's in details, I began shaking with guilt. I felt terrible.My mind kept reverberating on the task I assigned Raphael.When Raphael informed me about the what happen at the honor party, I told him I am already aware of it and he went further to give me a hint about all that have been happening during my absence.I felt bitter and I just couldn't wait for the promised date when I'll go back to Manila.
Sylvia's POV,I was heading to ray's ward to get my stuffs thinking about ray.I would have really love to stay with him even for eternity but time always runs when I so free and forget myself with him that I end up getting home late.So now that we weren't discussing anything important, I have to take the opportunity to leave.What I am so fascinated about is that I am not the only one who yearn to be with ray, I think ray also wants to be with me for some quality of time but I know he won't admit it.Anyway I am still overwhelmed that I and ray is gradually getting along well, I just hope the end of it lands in my favor.
Sylvia's POV"Sylvia I'll advise you bury that thinking of yours, don't try to meddle in his family's issues you know how arrogant he can get right and beside his dad is so dangerous." Dad whined and I bit my finger."I know that but in this situation, Ray is trapped in the middle of his parental problem firstly he was adducted and then he has to put up with his parents conflict which is giving him a havoc, I think he has everything he want yet peace and happiness is lacking off." I said and leaned on a riser.""Well that's for ray to worry about each families have their own flaws, look at me for example irrespective of my health challenge, I still struggle tirelessly to get us a better life yet the income isn't even coming is like I'm working in vain." Dad complained.
