Alright!! Let's dive into Conrad's head🤗

                      <<Conrad's pov>>

The automatic bell had been rung five minutes ago and I was still outside the school gate, under the scorching sun waiting for both Daniel and Joshua.

They had volunteered to help me get my back in class and also check if Chris had returned the shirt he borrowed from me.

That guy, Chris had disturbed the hell out of me because of that wrist watch. He had seen it on my hand one certain day and he told me he would like to borrow it for a day.

Chris was known to be living a fake life. He would borrow very rich stuffs just to pretend as if he's rich while he is not.

There was even a time, he rented a car and brought it to school for show off. That was the time we finally knew that he had been faking to be rich. That was how the owner of the car came shouting that Chris hadn't balanced him up. Omo! It wasn't funny that day.

Shit! What's taking them so long?

I decided to go check on them.

I walked past some girls who kept staring and pointing at me.

The school looked a bit dried now. Almost everyone had already gone.

I got to the class and squeaked the door open. I was shocked on what I saw.

Hadiza was on the floor with Fabiola who was busy hitting her.

My gaze was still on her as she met mine.

She needed my help.

I felt like she was telling me to do something.

A tear ran down her cheek as she began crying.

Her eyes said it all. She was tired and weak.

I hated seeing her this way.

I felt horrible watching Fabiola hit hadiza. I felt awful watching her cry. But I couldn't do anything. I just stood there as if my feet were glued to the ground.

What kind of friend am I?

I placed my hands in my pocket as I walked over to my seat where my friends were.

"Guys, what's taking you so  long? You know we are already late for the football match," I tried to say.

"I don't think he left it in your bag because we have checked your bag and still can't find it," Daniel replied. I grabbed the bag from Daniel and decided to check it again. "Let's check it again,"

"You, forsaken peacock. What were you thinking looking at my Conrad like that? Oh! You think he is going to come to your aid or what?!" I heard Fabiola say. She grabbed Hadiza's collar once again.

Fabiola smooched hadiza to the wall and pushed her to the ground.

I couldn't just leave her like this.

I wanted to go help hadiza but I felt someone hold me back.

"Guys, let's go," Joshua said pulling me by the arm.

I grabbed my bag and we both left the class.
