“Jake!”
Jake was sitting alone in the school park when he heard his name but he didn’t bother turning around, with the voice he already knew who it was.
“I don’t care what issues you have with me Jake, we are still poem partners” Julia stood behind him with her arms crossed around her chest.
Jake didn’t reply or react to what she’s saying. He wasn’t in the mood for anything right now as once again his mother has ruined his reputation.
“Jake I’m talking to you” Julia came to sit beside him but he didn’t spare her a glance, seeing his face made hers soften up.
“Are you okay? You can talk to me” She said softly.
Jake chuckled a little. “Talk to you? We aren’t even friends”
“Then we can be friends except you just hate me for no reason” Julia rolled her eyes.
“I don’t hate you, I just want to be left alone but it seems like you can’t do that. If you want to stay here then you can but I’m leaving” Jake stood up and began leaving.
“I’m sorry about your mom” She shouted before he could move further and Jake stopped moving but didn’t turn around.
Julia sighed and stood up then moved closer him, she stopped behind him.
“I don’t think your mother is a slΓΊt like the article says she is. I think she just wants to be loved and understood, I don’t know why people don’t get that, we are women, we have feelings” She said more like talking to herself before looking at him again.
“I think who ever made that article is lame and should be ashamed of him or herself. I’ll see you tonight at the art museum Jake we are still poem partners” She tapped his shoulders before walking away.
Jake watched her walk away in silence.

MEDICAL DEPARTMENT***
“That would be all for today, see you guys this evening for the extra class” Professor Micheal said to the students and some began leaving the classroom.
“Aime you wait behind and you too Bryan” Professor Micheal stopped the both of them.
Bryan twitched his lips as he waited while Aime bit her lips as the students cleared of real quick. Professor Micheal closed his text book and moved closer to them.
“Aime you’re not doing well on your tests and you do know if you fail this exam, you’d get kicked out of GGC right?” He gave Aime a deep concerning look.
Bryan raised his hands up to speak.
“Yes, go ahead”
“May I know why you asked for me too?” He asked.
“I need you to tutor Aime” Professor Micheal replied and Aime gave Bryan a shocked look.
“Him? Tutor me? No professor no!” She disagreed.
“Yeah I don’t want to tutor her professor, she’s not my standard” Bryan agreed with her and Aime only gave him a serious glance before rolling her eyes.
“Hear me out, I just want to help the both of you” Professor Micheal tried explaining.
“How’s helping her helping me?” Bryan had a confused expression on his face. “I mean she’s dum anyways, clearly not doctor material so she can leave if the wishes right?” He scoffed.
“You…” Aime pointed at him. “You’re not even the smartest person here and you’re so full of yourself”
“If she passes, it’s an extra point for you” Professor Micheal quickly adds.
“Love the sound of that professor but I can’t stand this chick so I’m out of here” Bryan rolled his eyes and left.
“Aime what’s wrong with you?” Professor Micheal sighed as he looked at her. “Do you want to leave? You want your mother to get mad why don’t you just humble up and beg Bryan to lecturer you” He pleaded with her.
“Me? Beg that grumpy master? No way ” Aime shook her head.
“And what would your mom says if she finds out you repeat? Professor Micheal asked and Aime blinked twice.
“Then she should, I never wanted this anyways!” Aime turned around to leave but Professor Micheal stopped her.
“Think Aime, remember how tough life was for us when we had nothing? Don’t you wanna be someone in life?” Michael stopped her before taking off his glasses.
“I get you have a different dreams entirely, I mean who cares about writing novels or whatever you say you love? It may pay just little of your bills, it will never help if one day you’re sitting on the street and sharing food with the rats like we did in the past Aime” Micheal moved closer to her and held her shoulders.
“I’m talking to you as your father and not your professor. Give up on whatever passion you think you have and chase something bigger, doctors comes with respect and if you’re that, everyone would respect you, you’d be really rich and your mom would be happy out there” He gave her shoulder a little squeeze before leaving the lecturer room.
Aime closed her eyes to keep the tears threatening to fall in place. Why don’t anyone believe in dreams anymore?

BOYS LOCKER ROOM**
“Pretty bad of you to expose Jake like that” One of the puck member said which caused the others to laugh.
“His mother is one hell of a hotcake, I’d love to do her one day” Another guy added and they laughed again.
Rico rolled his eyes as he stepped out of the restroom with his towel on. “Sorry to disappoint you guys but I really wish I was the one who uploaded that article” He said drowsily.
“Huh? You didn’t to that?” A guy asked with a surprise look.
“I really wish it was me, apparently I’m not the only one who hates Jake in this school, good for him but it should have been me though” Rico sighed in disappointment.
“If you didn’t then who did?” The guy asked again.
“I don’t care, they helped me get him back anyways so now puck party this evening to celebrate our wins, who’s in?” Rico announced and the boys began jubilating.

EVENING- ART GALLERY**
Julia sighed for the umpteenth time, checking the time on her wristwatch while sitting on a stool and looking through the window. It’s 9:30pm in the evening and she’s been here since 8pm.
“What was I even thinking hoping he would show up” She muttered and stood up from the stool and carried her bag to leave.
When she opened the door, she was stunned to say Jake standing right in front of her with his hands in his pocket as usual.
“Jake” She couldn’t believe he came. She was about giving up, going to her room and feeling stupid but he was here after all.
Jake looked left and right before giving her an apologetic look. “I’m sorry I’m late, I had to help Kelvin…”
He could not finish what he was saying when Julia suddenly flung her arms around him, hugging him tightly.
“I’m so glad you showed up!”
