Chapter 8 - Art block

Blink...blink....blink

Went my body alarm.

i had a nightmare lastnight,same as the others.

A complete repetition of same dreams....

Same details....

Same dear....

Now that am thinking of it.....i sincerely would like it a bit  if there was a single different detail that came along  with the dreams, and not repeating it over and over again.

(Oh Kathie,that's so insane,you know you don't put those dreams in your head so stop fussing over nothing)

Thanks to mom though,I was able to go back to sleep again.

          I sighed heavily and dragged myself off the bed and did my morning routine

                      ......

I got to school a bit earlier though ,only a few people were in school.i looked at the wall clock 7:20am.i still have close to 40 minutes before lessons commences.i sighed

        Perks of being early

       You'll have a whole 40 mins to

wait

Just then,an idea popped in...

    maybe I could go look around since I couldn't yesterday and no one was kind enough to take me around.

I made my way out.

The school was quite spacious and every of the classes where in different blocks n buildings.

Taking a right turn,

I walked an area that had very thick and bushy plants and trees.

"Oh great" i mumbled.

It wouldn't be a high school without an area for bad activities i.e. smoking,hideout for those that don't want to be in class.

Trust me,we had a lot of such spots in my former school.

I passed by a building at the far end and it had paintings and drawings at the back of it,it kinda added color to the boring white n grey paintings on the school walls.it was a beautiful combination of colours. there where so many creative and beautiful drawings and paintings,most of it was made with spray paint of various colors and a few markers.

I could see at one part of the wall,that had a very bold "ART BLOCK" written atop,then

Nicknames

write-up,

Rhythmic words and wise words.....such as

A brunette

Like grenade

In a parade

With a charade ....

Better silence than

Saying what you might regret....

Forgiveness is freedom

       ...

I got you

Like the day has the sun

And the night has the moon

I got you

When your pain is real

And the worst is yet to come

I got you

Now,always,forever

In tears,in blood and every ordeal

Those and many more were down below.

Seeing all this kinda made me feel better than I was earlier,like I now have a get away from "me"

   as much as I remember,I have always being a lover of art and nature. They just give me comfort in a way which might seem weird though.

     Katherine.....

I heard my name from afar or maybe it's just my head messing around with me.so I didn't turn around or look back anyways.i continued reading all those write-up,then my name was called again

   

   Katherine.!!!

It was louder this time and I convinced it wasn't my head,the voice I heard was of a male.

I turned around and it was kelvin,he was with Cole.they were coming from opposite where I stood.guess they live that way.

"Goodmorning  Katherine "kelvin greeted

"Goodmorning "I said with a bit blush,you don't always get greetings from cute guys...it doesn't happen everyday .

Cole just nodded and I returned it.

Weird,

The only near-to-a-conversation thingy we ever had.    *Nods*

"What are you up to ? seems like you came early today"kelvin asked.

I smiled.

 

"Umm.....yea so I figured I came to school a bit early so I decided to look around". i replied

  "Wow.....cool

  Going to class now?

   It's just 5 minutes before lessons start".

Kelvin said after checking his wristwatch. 

"Yeah, sure". I said.

I didn't know that I had spent so much time looking at the art block.

how time fly....

we all started walking towards class.alot of people were in school now which also meant lots of stares but I couldn't help but notice that 

That Cole dude had been looking at me in a scrutinizing manner,

And having someone looking at you as though you a prey isn't my very best things to handle.

.he didn't say anything when I and kelvin were talking and it's making me rather uncomfortable now.....being sandwiched between them in  awkward silence,they were both very tall and i think i looked like a dwarf...

Always happens when you around tall people,you height is rather insignificant.

am 5'6 and I think they should be like 6feets or so.

And now that am thinking of it...i don't think I've ever seen Cole talk before.he might be dumb maybe...

We got to class and I slid into my seat.Kelvin gave me a lip tight smile before he and Cole went futher in to their seat.

vera was here  already

She said a little "hi" with a wave and I returned them all.

A few Minutes later, lessons started, I don't think I saw Dave though....

I guess he didn't come today.

100% okay with me.

■■■■■■■■■■■

During break I went to the library,but I didn't expect what I saw....

Litters and dirt all over the place...

Looked like there was a fight or something.

I really wanted an escape,bury myself in any book I find interesting until breaks over but I guess I now have to change my plans.

I went back to the class hoping to see Vera and collect some notes from her to catch up but Vera wasn't in class...well not much people were.

My only next hope was kelvin but looking towards his seat,he wasn't there either but Cole was

..... oh great!

(Note the sarcasm)

I sat on my sat back on my seat because going to meet Cole wasn't an option....not with his weird looks.

Well life knows the best ways to be unfair, the time seemed to have reduced it's speed from 60secs per minutes to the 1000secs per minute,

Hard to believe It's just 5minutes since break. We still had more 45minutes to go,I couldn't possibly be idle for 45 whole minutes because I ain't got enough balls to go ask for a note....hell no.

I stood, pissed at myself for trying to chicken out,

I put on a bold facade and went up to Cole's seat.

Here we go baby girl....
