I walked out looked around I didn't find him all I wanted was to say thank you to him for his help but he was lost in the crowd, I looked around the weather looked like it was going to rain any moment from now I started walking towards the road then something wet hit me
'Fuck does it really have to be now' I cursed
It started raining people ran around looking for shelter, I too took to my heels I ran to stand in front of a cafeteria I stood there as I pleaded to the rain to stop.
'Anthea! Anthea! ' I heard my name been called out I turned to find my friend Bella walking towards me.
' Hey Anthea how are you it has been a while how are you' she asked with concern
'Am fine how about you' I asked and placed my hand on her shoulder but then I shivered
'Oh cut that crap you are not fine, see you are shivering don't tell me that' she said almost scolding me like my mum
'Thank you Bella for your concern but am fine' I held her shoulder but then unknowingly I shivered
She looked at me with a frown
'Come on let go inside and buy a warm coffee so u won't catch a cold' she said and then lead me inside the shop
She asked for two cups of coffee
'Hey Anthea it's been a while sorry I couldn't reach out to you after graduation I traveled to visit my mom and lost my phone' she said bringing out a phone that seemed new from her bag
' I know you are angry with me but babe am sorry' she apologized
'Girl it's not a problem I understand, how is your mum' I asked
'She's fine after she left my dad she and her high school sweetheart got back together, ' she said with a sign.
' oh sorry about that hope the vacation went well and you didn't have an issue with the man'
' no I didn't just that he wanted to be all fatherly but you one thing I wonder why she left the man to my dad if she loved him that much' the she hissed
' Don't let me bore you with my life story how is things with you and mom I hope she is fine' she asked with soo much concern with the smile I don't know know where it came from I replied
'She is fine we are doing great I went to the beach today that reminds me guess who I met today' I asked her
'Who Anth you know am bad really bad at guessing so please spare me the stress'
She complained
' ok ok I met Chloe at beach ' I told her and she was as surprise as I was when I saw Chloe
' Are you fucking kidding me what was she doing there' she asked in between her giggle
'Well she said she came with her cousin Olivia to visit her boyfriend' I replied
'Her boyfriend, is Olivia dating the ocean because I don't know why it would be in a beach she will meet the supposed boyfriend' I laughed and slightly hit her on her arm
' I know you really don't like them but don't say such mean things about them' I said in between the intense laughter
' hey girl reduce your voice we are in public' Bella scolded
' ok ma I've heard thank you for the coffee but I have to leave now the rain has subsided or you have to give a long explanation to mum' so I stood up as I was about to leave Bella also stood up and held in a quick embrace
' I missed you I really did' for the first time in after we've met I felt emotional
' Bella if u don't want me to start crying can you stop am getting emotional ' I said as we broke the embrace
' you wouldn't say you missed me too ' she complained crossing her arm in front of her boods
' You should know I miss you more I have to go now it's getting dark bye' I said and left in a hurry
'Bye too love, less I forget am working here' she called out as I ran
Getting to our street I decided to stop running but for unknown reason I felt like something was off it felt like someone was watching me as I walked further the street light flicked
'Hey Anth there as no such things as ghost' I tried to assure myself
But then it flicked again, this time I stopped, then the environment felt more intensed then someone touched me immediately turned just to find him looking at me with a smark
