Chapter 7[Hilton High]
Mirrah POV ?
“Good morning everyone we have a new student. plea-se introduce yourself. ” The teacher said and I step a bit forward.
“Good morning once again. My name is Mirrah Blues and I just got transferred here from Williams High in NY and I hope you’ll all be friendly to me as we all learn together. ” I said smiling.
“Nice Mirrah, and welcome to Hilton High. I am Ms. Veronica, your literature teacher. Am very sure the principal gave you a seat number. ”
I showed her the paper I was given.
“Great because we’re about to start. ” She said and I went in search of seat number 12 and I found it. The seat is empty.
“Thanks.” I said with a smile and sits down then the lessons begin as my mind race to Florence.
What if this empty seat is supposed to be occu-pied by her? It’s enough that we’re in the same school but the same clas-s room? Nah.
“You’re fifteen minutes late Miss Gilbert. ” I raise my head to see Ms. Veronica talking to a blonde bug shoulder length haired girl. She hung her bag on her left shoulder and she’s wearing a pink snickers and she’s looking really pretty and innocent too.
“I’m sorry Ms. Veronica, our car got stuck in traffic. Today is Monday remember ” She said in a funny way and and Ms. Veronica smile halfly.
“Thank you Ms. Veronica. ” She didn’t wait to hear her response as she rush to where I’m sitting.
“I’ll sit at the edge if you don’t mind. ” She said and I smile. It’s a good thing Florence is not of this clas-s. I turn facing the roll and she enter inside then I saw another empty seat.
“Hi, am Lori Gilbert. ” She said looking at me. I like her smile.
“Mirrah Blues. ” We shoke hands staring at each other.
“Enough of Lesbianism in my clas-s Ms. Gilbert. ” Lori laughed and unZi-p her bag.
Who have this empty seat? plea-se, it shouldn’t be Florence because I’ll just switch to science clas-s. I cannot stand been in the same clas-sroom with her.
The clas-sroom is beautiful and spacious too with two roll seats and I and Lori are at the left roll while the other including the empty seat are at the right roll.
“That’s the end of our today’s lesson. ‘Ms. Veronica said and drop the clas-s marker on the table beside her.
” We’re meeting next week so Ms. Blues… “I stood on my feet.
“… your first home work is to write any tragedy story and submit next week. Ms. Gilbert will pair with you. ” She said and left the clas-s.
I sigh and sit back.
“Welcome to Hilton High. ” Lori said sarcastically and I roll my eyes.
“But seriously. ” She faced me.
“… you chose this school? ”
I nod my head as a ‘yes’.
“Hilton is great. ” I said to her.
“But not Hilton High” She said and start parking her books back into her bag while I fl!pinto my textbook.
‘It’s lunch time. ”
I look at her and her gaze was on her phone then the school bell rang.
“Great! ” She sprung up.
“Are you coming?! ”
I close my textbook.
“Where? ”
“To the cafeteria, honey. ”
‘No, thanks. I still nee-d to catch up. ”
She closed my textbook.
“Lots of catch ups you’ll do. Eat when it’s time to eat. ”
Why am I having this strange feeling about this girl? Is she a l£sb!anas Ms. Veronica had said?.
“No.” She said as if she’s re-ading my mind.
“What? ”
“My last grade in Math was 98% and that’s an A+. So no, I’m not a dullard. That’s probably what you’re thinking but if you don’t wanna go the cafeteria with me then… ” She open my text book back for me.
“Alright.” I stood up holding my textbook.
“Let’s go and eat. ” I said and she smile. I like this girl but she’s weird.
“Can I ask you a question? ” I said as we’re walking to the cafeteria.
“Okay, go ahead. ” She said.
“Why did you say that Hilton High isn’t great? ”
“I did? Oh, don’t believe that. Hilton is awesome until you get to meet Jeremy Malcolm. He is the bad luck of the school and worst, we’re clas-smates. ”
That only means he’s the occu-pier of that empty seat. That’s a relief but she’s sounding like he’s a thvg that everyone should be afraid of.
And something de-ep inside is telling me that Unlucky j£rk might be this Jeremy Malcolm.
“The son of Mr. Malcolm. ” I said and she nod her head in affirmative.
We got into the school cafeteria and wow, it’s really beautiful but noisy of course. Everything is perfect in Hilton.
“We’re sitting here. ” She said pointing to a blue and pink seat opposite each other with a table in front of it. A one table divided with blue and pink. Beautiful!
“I’ll take the pink seat. ” She said and drop her bag on it while I drop my textbook on the blue side of the table.
“So, what is your order Miss Blues? ” She’s now sounding like Ms. Veronica
“Fried ch!ps? ” I made it sound like a question. Actually, I’m not sure if they serve fried ch!ps here. The cafeteria is just too great for fried ch!ps to be severed.
‘Noted. Drinks? “She ask me.
Wow, Hilton high offers fried ch!ps. My favorite ?✨
” Milkshake will do. “I said and she left while I sit on the blue seat.
Why haven’t I seen unlucky j£rk?

” Do come next time. Thank you. ”
One of my employee wra-p the material for the lady inside a fine leather and she left with it.
With the little money my Mom transferred, I was able to pay for the rent of this shop and start my material business and it has been going well. People say when you just move to a place, it’s best you survey and watch for months before starting something but with me, I’m not even upto a month in Seattle yet and everything has been moving perfectly well, maybe it’s because of Jovi, she has been advertising Hann sto-re and people are patronizing us.
“There is someone here to see you ma’am. ” An employee of mine said.
“Let the person in. ” I said and she left.
“Hannah Danforth. ” I raise my head to see the person who has the guts to call my full name and it’s Francisco Amada!
What is he doing in Washington?
Francisco used to be my clas-smate back in College and he was my ex b©yfri£nd. We didn’t officially break up when it was announced to me that I’m to get married to Mark Blues.
Mark didn’t court me and we never d@t£d but I fell in love with him after all.
When the news got to Francisco, he got mad and left NY and I never heard from him again until now that he’s standing before me.
All my thinking was, he has returned to Spain but here he is in Washington looking all gorgeous and h0t as always.
“Oh my God Francisco is this you?! “I said smiling as I walk out of my seat.
” Alive an Healthy Hann. “He said and I rush him into a ti-ght hvg.
The truth is, he’s behind the name of my sto-re ‘Hann Sto-re’. We used to have that chemistry until my marriage to Mark was announced. I used to wish I was still with him especially after I learnt that Mark was cheating on me with his girlfriend Lillian and before I knew it, I was in love with him and all I could think of is fixing our marriage.
⏪FAST FORWARD⏩
……..
We both chuckles.
“So, how are you in Washington? ” He ask me. We’re now sitting on a single couch in my office.
“Got tired of NY and decide to relocate. ” I can’t tell him I and Mark are having issues, he’s only going to mock me and laugh me to scorn. I know Francisco Amada so well.
“You have it big here Hann. ” He said about my shop.
“It’s God. I thought you were in Spain. ”
“Been in Washington for years and believe me, it’s fun here especially this p@rt. ” He said laughing. He looks happy and I wish I am too, but thinking about Mark alone saddens me.
I feel the urge of asking him about his family but I don’t want to.
“I have to be going now. ” He said standing up. I glance at the wall clock to discover that he has spent almost an hour with me.
“Sure Francisco. ” I said on my feet.
“We should do this again over dinner. Maybe tomorrow? ” He said and I laugh. He’s trying to flir-t with me.
“I’m married. ”
“The ring tied to your f!nger s£nds the message so you don’t have to worry it’s just a friendly dinner. ” He said and I nod my head.
“So, where shall I pick you? ”
“Don’t bother just write me the address and I’ll be there. ”
He smile and nods his head. I know exactly what he’s thinking and I don’t want to create any impression especially not with Mark.
“Okay then. See you tomorrow. ” He pen down the address and I led him out. I am indeed happy to see Francisco again after so many years. We didn’t even talk about our past relationsh!p.

Chapter 8[Hospita]
Mark Pov ?
“Common.” I said putting the spoon full of rice close to her mouth to open. I’m at the hospital to visit Lillian and before I got here, bought French rice because I know she hasn’t eaten.
“I have cancer Mark not paralysis. ” She said smiling.
“Do you really nee-d to remind me. ” I hissed silently and drop the spoon on the plate and she collect the plate from me.
“When you’re acting like you don’t know of course I’ll remind you. ” She said with a sad smile and start to eat.
It pains me to know that I’ll soon loose her, why can’t God just have mercy on me and cure her?
I feel like she’s suffering because of me.
“How is Florence coping? ” She broke into my thought.
“Not well but she’ll adjust. ” I see, she’s almost done eating.
“I wish to meet Mirrah, maybe apologize to her for what happened. ” She said.
“You don’t owe anyone an apology Lillian. We should be more concerned on your health improvement. ”
“I am never getting back on my feet Mark so start accepting that. ” I got really furious. How can someone be wishing herself death and has no hope of getting better?.
She t©uçh my hands. “It’s the truth Mark, I’m sorry. ” She keep c@r£ss!ngmy hand and I smile.
“Okay, that’s that. ” She re-move her hand.
“How are you going to arrange my meeting with your wife before I’m due? “I roll my eyes at her.
” I don’t know okay, and enough about death plea-se! “She chuckles and held my hand again but this time I didn’t smile.
I don’t even know why she’s requesting to see Hannah. I wonder what she wants to say to her. But I hope it has nothing to do with the both of us.
Mirrah Pov?
I look at her in fury and walk out on her.
” I’m not done talking to you bit-ch! ”
I st©p on my track and bit my lower l!pthen turn to Florence.
“What did you just call me? ” I ask her calmly but in an angry tone and I ti-ght£ñ my face.
She giggles annoyingly and gathered the attention of students including unlucky j£rk, our eyes met but I was quic-k to turn away.
“Look at that! Acting like you own the world. Why don’t you tell everyone the reason why you moved to Washington with your family? Huh! ”
I roll my eyes and walk closer to her.
“You don’t wanna do this. Do you? “I said in a hush tone but instead she raised her eyebrows.
” You don’t have any right to talk about my family because you don’t even know what is going on with your mother! ” And I’m right, she looked puzzled.
“Oh, so you don’t know that your mother is suffering from cancer? How couldn’t you! You’re really really ins-en-sitive! ” I said and smile as tears gathered in her eyes.
“You don’t dare me Florence. ‘I stamp my feet on the ground and walk back into my clas-s.
Hannah Pov ?
I’m in a can going on Seattle’s general Hospital to visit Lillian actually.
Maybe I’m a little weird and I shouldn’t be doing what I’m doing but I can’t help it. Lillian is human and besides, everything starts with me, if I didn’t come into Mark’s life then they will be happily married right now wih their daughter Florence and all these wouldn’t have happened.
I paid the cab driver and he drove off while I made my way into the hospital and approach a nurse.
“I’m here to see Lillian Dobrev. ” I said to the nurse.
“And how are you related to her? ”
‘We share the same husband actually. ‘
That will ruin her image.
“I’m Hannah Danforth? ” It sounds like a question.
“Oh yeah, she told us to let you in. This way plea-se. ” The nurse said and led me to the ward where she’s lying.
“I’ll leave you two. ” The nurse left while I stood by the door. I don’t know what to say to her.
“Hannah, I’m sorry. ” I heard her say as tears began rolling down her cheeks.
“I didn’t know what I was doing. plea-se forgive me. ” She pleaded again and I walk to her in tears.
“You did nothing to me Lillian. ” Even though it’s not true.
“You shouldn’t like me Hannah, you should hate me, you should be hitting me right now or better still curse me. ” She said crying.
“You shouldn’t be ha-rd on yourself Lillian. ” I said and she held my hands.
“I want a last favour from you Hannah and you have to promise me that you’ll do it. ”
“Anything.”
“Florence. I want you to promise me that you’ll treat her like your daughter. She’s stubborn, but she still nee-d to feel loved and I can’t anymore. ”
How on heaven’s name will she be asking that of me? Florence is not the type that I can handle. I’m not done handling Mirrah then her?
“I promise. ”
Did I just say that? She smile with tears rolling down her cheeks.
“Thank you Hannah, because now I can rest. ” She said as she slowly close her eyes.
Yes, she’s right. She should rest since… Wait, my mind skip a bit as I place my hand on her n£¢k to feel her pulse but there was none.
Oh my God!
I rush to call the doctor to come check on her. The doctor used the stethoscope to feel her heartbeat. He looks at the other nurse who covered Lillian’s b©dy up to her face.
“Time of death, 15:26” The doctor said and left the ward.
I was speechless and at the same time shocked. This is the first time a person will die in my watch.
Why did she invite me here only for me to see her die?
How am I going to break the news to Florence and Mark?
How will Florence react to this news?
