"Go. You'll be late if you don't move now."
She gave him one last look before turning around and climbing the stairs.
Inside, Chibuzor was already seated.
Waiting.
The cabin was quiet.
Too quiet.
There were many empty seats in the passenger area.
But she walked straight to him.
If they were going to act like a united couple publicly, then they needed to talk privately.
She sat beside him.
Close.
Close enough to feel the warmth from his arm.
But not touching.
For a moment, neither of them spoke.
The door shut.
The jet began to taxi.
Then...
It lifted.
Rising smoothly into the sky.
Heading toward the esteemed University of Benini.
Inside the jet.
"Why did you use Olisa?" Olaedo asked suddenly.
Chibuzor blinked.
"Use him?" he repeated, confused.
"Yes, use him," she said firmly. "Do you know how much you scared him? What you did… it really worried him."
Chibuzor went quiet.
Now he understood what she meant.
But she had it all wrong.
He didn't use Olisa.
