And his mindset was correct. They waited for him at a certain spot, but after waiting for minutes and not seeing him, they got tired and left.
“The fuckers couldn’t wait for too long”. Ryan muttered to himself as he was still walking.
He kept on journeying until he finally arrived at his home and walked into it. Upon entering his home, he walked straight into his room, took off his school bag, and landed flat on the bed to rest his body.
After landing on the bed as he was lying on it currently, he muttered to himself,
“I must get to see you Miles, I’m coming for you tomorrow. As far as you’re still in this kingdom, I must get to see you”.
******
At school the next day, Ryan kept waiting for the same thing he was waiting for yesterday. He kept waiting for closing hour to reach so he could head straight to Miles’ house.
As known, he’d gotten to see Liam yesterday, all that remained was for him to see Miles.
Activities took place at school as usual. Teachers entered different classrooms to teach the students in them, Ryan’s classroom wasn’t an exception.
Teachers trooped into their classroom one after the other to teach them according to their teaching curriculum. The teachers consisted of both males and females.
..Some of their teachings were interesting, while some were pretty boring.
It got to break hour, and students didn’t waste time to head straight to the cafeteria. Ryan also did the same, he and Dylan headed straight to the cafeteria together.
They reached the cafeteria, secured their seats, got served, and began eating. Their visits to the cafeteria had been peaceful for days now.
Yes, it’s been long since they got bullied in the cafeteria, received those weird stares, hurtful remarks, and so on. Those bullies wouldn’t dare cause distress to Dylan’s life again knowing what he can do.
They rather choose to keep causing distress to other students’ lives behind his back. Those four boys would rather choose to keep causing distress to Ryan’s life using that same tactic without Dylan’s knowledge.
They’d rather choose to keep bullying other students behind his back even though he instructed them to stop all that. But as for causing distress to his life, that was a no-go area.
As known, Dylan didn’t have any idea that they didn’t listen to his instruction and had caused distress to Ryan’s life while he was heading home after their separation.
They’d done it more than once, and he wasn’t aware because Ryan didn’t inform him…
The bullies were fully aware of what would happen the moment Dylan finds out. And the only way for him to find out was if Ryan tells him.
But their mindset was that Ryan wouldn’t tell him no matter how much they bully him. Now, was their mindset wrong? Or were they right? Well, we’d find out as time passes.
Students in the cafeteria kept eating their food nonstop after they got served, and that was also the same case for Ryan and Dylan. They kept eating their food nonstop.
They wouldn’t even be able to stop for a second even if they wanted to because the food was too delicious. So they just had to keep digging in.
They were done eating by now, including other students. So they didn’t waste time standing up from the chairs they were sitting on and began walking out of the cafeteria until they were done walking out of the cafeteria.
Ryan sighted the four boys during the time they were walking on the compound. And the boys were staring at him with a kind of smirk on their faces.
One was even giving him the look of, ‘How come we didn’t see you yesterday?’.
Ryan didn’t stare at them for too long. He quickly took his gaze away from them after the passing of a few more seconds.
Dylan didn’t have a single idea of the little situation that had just taken place between Ryan and the bullies though Ryan was walking alongside him.
Ryan just had the feeling they’d try to bully him again today making use of that same tactic. But the thing was that they wouldn’t see him again today to bully him.
They’d only wait for him until they get tired and leave just as it happened yesterday. As known, he doesn’t plan on heading straight home today after closing hour.
He planned on heading straight to Miles’ house so he could see him. One of the people that betrayed him badly and ruined his life to an extent…
Ryan and Dylan kept on walking until they reached their classroom. Some students were already in the classroom upon reaching it, and the others arrived later.
******
It had gotten to closing hour, and students were already leaving their classrooms for home as usual. Dylan was handling something when closing hour arrived.
So he quickly rounded up what he was handling and stood up from his seat so he could begin heading home with Ryan. But upon standing up from his seat and glancing at Ryan’s seat, he was nowhere to be found.
This was exactly the same thing that happened yesterday.
The plan was to head home with him yesterday, but he was nowhere to be found after closing hour.
“Why the fuck is he leaving without me? Why the rush? Is something going on?”. Dylan muttered to himself with a confused facial expression glancing at Ryan’s seat.
Well, since Ryan had left, he had no choice but to leave alone. This was what he did after Ryan was nowhere to be found yesterday…he headed home alone.
Carrying his school bag and wearing it, he walked out of the classroom. He’d arrived at the school compound by now, and it didn’t take long for him to walk out of the school compound completely.
As for Ryan, he was heading toward Miles’ house as planned. The moment it got to closing hour, he was among the first students to leave the classroom just as it happened yesterday.
He was heading toward Miles’ house without stopping for even a second. As he was in motion, he was walking past different people, and people were walking past him as well.
He kept on journeying until he finally arrived at Miles’ house. Now, upon arriving at Miles’ house, things were different from yesterday.
There were a few people outside the house, but Ryan didn’t know who they were because he hadn’t set eyes on them before. He knew what Miles’ mum looked like because he’d seen her before.
But according to what he was seeing currently, Miles’ mum wasn’t among the people standing outside the house. And this made Ryan begin to wonder,
‘Who are these people? Are they relatives?’.
They were just standing outside the house and conversing among themselves. They consisted of both men and women, and each of them were putting on different colors and designs of robes.
Completely confused as to who these people were, Ryan just stood there glancing at them. He was still glancing at them when he felt the urge to glance back.
Yes, a certain spirit in him just signalled him to glance back. And he did so with immediate effect…
He wasn’t expecting what he saw when he glanced back. His eyes widened immediately and fear gripped him…it was completely unexpected.
What did he see that made fear grip him? He saw Miles coming. Yes, it was Miles he came here to see, so why was he shocked when he set eyes on him?
Well, that’s because he wasn’t expecting to see him this way. He wasn’t expecting that Miles would be coming behind him at this moment.
As known, even though the plan was to see Miles, Miles must never set eyes on him. Seeing him would ruin a lot of things.
And there’s no way Miles wouldn’t see him with the way he was coming behind him right now though he hadn’t set eyes on him yet. For the next few seconds, Ryan didn’t know what to do, his heart was just pounding.
Well, he finally decided on what to do, he can’t afford to let Miles see him. He began walking away with immediate effect while making use of his palms to cover his face.
He did it in such a mature way that it didn’t seem like he was covering his face because he was trying to hide from someone, he did it in a way that seemed like he was cleaning something off his face.
Well, he was able to walk away with his palms on his face without Miles noticing him at all. Ryan coming here was the last thing Miles would imagine, so not noticing him was quite easy.
..He’d walked into his house’ compound by now, and Ryan was glad he’d done so.
