CAMILA
"I'm trying to learn here" I yelled at Ava who wouldn't stop distracting me telling me about events that happen in the school."Well, you should be happy I am talking to you" she smiled taking my book."Allow me to show you around my princess" she squealed and I scoffed in annoyance."No Ava, allow me to read" I ordered with a firm face but she only laughed.Goodness, I'd have to try the library next time."Ava!!" A girl squealed rushing to us but paused seeing me."Ohh, you have a new friend" she mumbled."No, of course not" Ava laughed hugging her."You're my friend, and she's our new friend, come let's show her around" she said and the girl nodded gazing at me."You're pretty" she complimented and I flashed her a smile.**"So, this is the school library" she said pointing at a beautiful building with different paintings on it."Alright" I nodded gazing at it, it's very beautiful even though it's multicolored.We walked for a little while before she gasped pointing at a direction. Who? I thought turning to her direction."Henry" she gasped covering her mouth as Henry walked towards our direction."Goodness, hold me" she mumbled leaning on me."He's cute" Anna said and I rolled my eyes as he made way towards us with his guards behind him.A few inches towards us, I could smell the scent of his perfume and of course, the smell is heavenly. He made to pass beside us but stopped gazing intently at us or should I say me?"You're the new girl?" He asked and I nodded."Ohhh" he mumbled directing his gaze on Ava."Friends huh?" He chuckled before pocketing his hands and with one last glance, he walked away."OMG" Ava screamed excitedly."He fucking talked to us" she gasped with a light blush and I scoffed."Where do we go again?" I asked and she exhaled trying to calm her fast beating heart."The school garden" she said and I nodded as she lead the way."But don't you think it's a little bit weird Henry is in the school?" Ava asked as we walked."Of course Anna but I'm excited nevertheless" Ava squealed and I couldn't help but chuckle."I think he's here to watch over the school" Anna added and Ava smiled."Maybe" Ava said.I sighed as she rushed inside the garden trailing her hands over the flowers."It'd be romantic here" she said dramatically and I chuckled.Romantic? Really?"How old are you?" I asked her."18" , she answered and I smiled.Okay, it isn't bad I guess."I really love this red flower" Anna said plucking a strand and I smiled snatching it from her.This is the most beautiful flower here.***HENRY"Is Chloe like that?" I asked my closest guard and he nodded."Why am I just finding out?" I asked and he bowed."She tries her best to keep it as a secret" he answered and I nodded.No wonder I'm just finding out about the tantrum she pulled in my house the last time she came."Don't allow her into my room ever again" I ordered and he nodded.Phew! Picking up my jacket, I took my face cap and glasses to avoid some silly attention."I want a drive" I said and the guard nodded walking outside while I followed.Entering the latest version of the Maserati, I exhaled as the driver roared the engine.Now, I need a good drive around the city. In the car, I couldn't help my thoughts, am I really doing the right thing by staying here to instead of going out of the states? Hell no, I'm pretty smart, I can cope with the business exam later, I just need to enjoy being a student for a little while.***NEXT DAYI watched as the maid took everything I needed in my room. Goodness, I can't believe I'm playing the basketball game again, it's been a while."The white or black?" She asked and I needed no one to tell me it's my shoes she's asking of."Of course white" I answered and she nodded with a small smile.I stood up as a guard entered to take my things."You know what to prepare before I come back" I said walking out of the room.***CAMILA"What do you mean?" I asked dad unbelievably."Camila" he called with a sigh."I have no other choice than to take this job" he said despondently."That means you'd be away from me" I cried sadly."Yes, but I'd visit during weekends" he sighed falling to the chair and I couldn't help the tears that ran down my eyes."Will I be staying alone then?" I asked and he sighed."No, don't tell me that" I shook my head firmly."I'm not even 18 yet" I yelled and he sighed."Will you go with me then?" He asked and I scoffed immediately."Go with you? And leave my school?" I asked angrily."Yes, I can always get you another school" he said but I scoffed at the thought of it.That institution is the only one I want."No" I said firmly."Then you have to cope with it Camila" he said standing up."You'd be staying alone" he added and I sniffed hard."Okay" I mumbled quietly as tears ran down my face.I'd be staying alone?"And I'd try getting you a maid soon" I heard him say as I cried into my palm."Camila" he called stroking my hair."Just come with" he said but I shook my head instantly."Alright" he sat beside me patting my back."I'd get you a maid and also try to come home at least 2 times a week" he said and I looked up."Dad" I cried hugging him tightly while he gently stroked my hair."Dad loves you" I heard him say and I smiled tightening the hug."I'd miss you" I mumbled into his chest and he laughed stroking my hair.CAMILAI walked slowly beside Ava still in thought."Heyy" she patted my shoulders and I jerked out of thought."Aren't you excited?" She asked dramatically."Henry is going to be playing, the last time I saw him play was 2 years ago" she squealed jumping up and I chuckled.How often does Henry attends school? Two years ago since she saw him play? Wow!"Are you okay?" She asked holding my arm and I nodded."Of course" I mumbled as Anna ran to us."Ava!!" she exhaled breathing heavily and I chuckled at how dramatic these two can be."Let's hurry" she mumbled as we rushed to the basketball court."Yayy" the cheering sound welcomed me immediately and glancing around, I saw him, my savior. He brushed his hair backwards swallowing and I saw his Adam's apple move. He's hot, I must say. But how old can he be? I'd probably ask Ava later."I want to see clearer" Ava said and Anna took her hand rushing to the front."Go on Henry" I heard people scream. Glancing around, I saw his bodyguards, of c
"Fuck it dad!" I yelled as he spoke into the phone."You're the fucking Governor, just find out those behind this!" I yelled frustrated."My men are working on it" he said and I could sense his frustration. How the men keep getting away with it is what I don't know and I find it disturbing. It's downgrading that he's the Governor and such a thing is happening in his school."Whatever" I mumbled ending the call. This is the fucking fifth time the attack will be happening and according to him, his men haven't been able to do a thing about it, he's probably hiding something."She's awake sir" One of my guards said behind me."Okay" I mumbled turning to the direction of her ward, we're in the hospital, she fainted so they had to resuscitate her back to life. I wonder why she'd risk her life because someone got shot, I just hope she didn't get shot."How's she?" I asked the doctor and he bowed a little."Luckily, the bullet only scraped her arm" he answered and I nodded with a small smile.
CAMILAI scoffed as I got down from the supposed car the school brought. "Thank you" I mumbled as the driver drove away. I could feel the bile at my throat telling me something was off about the school but I'm ignoring that, I'm not letting that affect me. The school is owned by the Governor, so of course, there should be plenty of enemies. I walked gently into the house."Dad?" I called entering the kitchen but scoffed remembering he left. Yeah... he did, this morning. He had to travel, I felt tears burn at the brim of my eyes but I ain't crying. I rushed to my bag to call him but as I rampage through my bag, I couldn't help but fear. I bet my phone isn't here. Shit! I mumbled falling to the sofa. I lost my phone, probably when the attack happened, goodness how do I call him now? I sniffed as the tear finally slipped down, if only dad's here. I wouldn't have told him anyway, I thought taking a drink from the fridge. Goodness, I badly needed this. As I closed my eyes enjoying the flav
CAMILA As I walked into the school with my backpack on my shoulders, I shuddered as students were too much, I bet I'm late. Remembering I haven't talked to dad, I sighed dejectedly, I'm sure he'd be very worried. But it's okay, I'd probably give him a call with Ava's phone."Hey newbie" Someone called, on turning to the direction, I scoffed when I saw the guy. He looked rather unkempt, I'm sure he isn't here for normal classes, he's probably taking one of the business classes."Not a newbie" I mumbled trying to walk past him."Heyy" he held my shoulders and I scoffed."Let go" I ordered and he chuckled moving back."I guess I'd see you around pretty" he gave a malicious grin and I scoffed moving towards the class. Halfway, I paused when I saw the image. "Chloe?" I mumbled. She was ranting some incoherent words pulling a girl on her hair. Who's that? I thought walking closer to them. As I moved, they moved forward too but I was determined to see what she's up to."Hey" I yelled as she
"Chloe!!" I yelled over the phone."I want you at the school hospital right now!" I yelled before ending the call. She knows better than to disobey me.I sat gently on the chair waiting for the girl to be treated on, she has to explain what Chloe did."Boss, there's a call!" Fanscho yelled running to me. I paused on seeing the caller. Dad? I thought."Henry!!" His voice roared over the phone. "You were attacked just yesterday!" He yelled and I sighed."I just wanted to be in school dad" I mumbled."I want you out of there" he yelled over the phone."Dad?" I mumbled."Right now!" He said firmly and I stood up having no choice, for him to have called me, he really wanted me out of here."Get her back to school" I told Fanscho and he nodded before bowing. I sighed walking to her ward, I just wanted to see her. She laid peacefully on the bed, her arm isn't bleeding and gently, I walked away to my car.***CAMILAI woke up slowly, my vision blurry as I glanced around. I caught a glimpse of
CAMILAI exhaled walking into the compound but paused on seeing the door open. Is dad around? I thought hastening my step, I opened the door and I was welcomed by his furious face."Camila!" He yelled and a kind of fear ran through me. "Where have you been huh?" He asked and I sighed walking to him "Dad" I mumbled hugging him, he exhaled before stroking my hair."I was worried Camila" he mumbled and I laughed pulling away. His face went pale and I wondered why."What happened to your arm?" He asked grabbing my arm, he observed it carefully and I swallowed hard. I definitely ain't telling him I almost got shot."Nothing dad" I mumbled pulling away, "I only scraped my arm" I mumbled but he stared at me doubtfully. "Dadddd" I whined and he exhaled falling to the sofa."You got bullied already?" He asked slowly and I sighed having no other choice, I'd tell him the half truth."Yes dad but trust me I'd handle this" I said firmly."Your lips" he mumbled standing up, he got an emollient and
HENRYI rolled on the bed before opening my eyes but I squinted it immediately trying to adjust to the light. Goodness, I forgot to put the light off yesterday. I sat up picking my phone, I checked all my medias and luckily, no important message I have to attend to, my account manager must have taken care of it. A message popped into my phone and I smiled seeing it's Bilal, one of my business classes' partner. "Hey, when are you coming?" the message read."Soon bro" I replied back. I stood up walking to the bathroom, I did my business before coming back into the room. Picking a grey joggers and a polo, I gently sat on the sofa before calling Fanscho. He entered almost immediately."Good morning sir" he said with a bow. I only chuckled at him using the term "sir" for me."Book an appointment with my dad" I said and he nodded. I have to talk to dad, I know he isn't going to allow me go to school anytime soon and I have to discuss with him. "Tell me the time" I said and he nodded before
HENRYWith the guards behind me, I walked into the elevator and they walked in too, heavily guarded. We got out of the elevator and glamorously, we took the way to dad's office. The paintings made me smile, I mean I just love the color white. The guards slipped their card inside and it gave a green light before the door open. I walked in while the guards stayed behind. "He's in his office" his PA said and I nodded without replying, I just don't like his PA. I knocked on the door to his office room before his voice came up."Come in" he answered and I nodded opening the door to his room. He's the only one in the room and he's in front of the mirror, gazing at himself."Good day dad" I mumbled but he only nodded. I took a seat on the sofa and a maid walked in serving me a cup of juice."Why're you here Henry?" He asked and I sighed, he barely has time for me but he wants to influence all of my decisions. He acts all annoyed with me sometimes and also sweet sometimes. "I wanted to talk
