Chapter 4 - one week left.

Lights. Cold compressions. Water. We're the things on alvora's neck. Alvora opened her eyes to see Orion, alzar and ruewen with panick in their eyes. A tear skipped her eye-lid blockage and trickled down her cheek. "Don't worry you will be okay." Ruewen said cleaning the tear off her cheek. The principal had gone to his office and locked the door for no one to enter. Alvora's eyes locked with alzar's.

"She is alright to return." The nurse smiled. " No! She should rest a while." Alzar said screaming his lungs out.

"Don't worry I will rest okay" alvora said smiling. They all left the sick bay.

'you made a mistake' ruewen' voice echoed in her ears. She wished she had not bumped into the principal. She took her sleeping pills and slept off.

**3hrs**

Alvora took her cape and based the nurse good bye. She walked out silently but reuwen sighted her.

"Hey alvora, how are you doing?" Reuwen asked looking concerned.

"Am alright" alvora said reassuring. Alvora and reuwen walked up to their lockers and packed their bags.

"Let me drop you off" alzar said offering her a hand. She gladly took his hand and went with him bading reuwen goodbye.

"How are you feeling ?" Alzar asked looking concerned.

"Am alright" alvora said as she entered his car. Alzar sat beside her and motioned for the driver to drive. There was silence.

"I see that you like me alot" alzar said breaking the silence.

"What...wait .no! I..i.." alvora stammered as trail of words left her mouth. She blushed so hard that her cheeks felt red. They reached her house.

"Take my number" he said as he scribbled his number on a paper and handed it over to her.

"Call me okay"

"Okay bye" she smiled as alzar blew a kiss and drove off.

"Who was that?" Videla said pointing to the black BMW driving in a distance.

"My class mate alzar. He dropped me off because of what happened at school. But don't worry no reason to panick" alvora said smiling at her.

"What happened at school?" Videla asked with stern eyes.

"Today, during martial arts class. The martial art teacher which is the principal showed us the dragon kick. So, he called me to demonstrate and i did. Then he asked me to fight me and during the fight he held my neck and...." Alvora stammered.

"And what"

"He broke my neck"alvora said

"What!?" Videla screamed.

"We will file a report" alvora's dad Henry said.

"No! It was a prank!" Alvora wore a forced smile

"You sure scared the wits out of me" videla said.

"Go upstairs to your room" henry said. Alvora climbed the stairs to her room. She takes her.phone and dials alzar's number but reuwen's call came in.

"Hey reuwen, how are you?"

"Am suppose to be asking you but am good. And the neck"

"Fine"

"Well Orion said it should give you his number"

"His number? But alzar just gave me his"

"Aww well get a sheet of paper"

"Okay?"

"9951-2213-3327"

"Okay thanks" alvora said hanging up.

Alvora dials alzar's line

"Hey. It's alvora"

"Hi. How is your neck?"

"Fine"

"Okay. How did you tell your parents?"

"I told my mom but she freaked out and my dad wanted to file a report but i stopped him and told them that it was a prank."

"Thank God"

"Why"

"I will tell you tomorrow. Okay?"

"Bye" she says hanging up the call.

Alvora showered and wore a short gown. She takes her sleeping pills and sleeps off with Betty.

"How are you?" Alzar asked as he shut his locker.

"Fine and you?"

"Fine"

"You said you wanted to tell me something yesterday" Alvora reminded him

"Yes. See anytime the principal is reported to the authorities. He finds a way to escape. Because he is an ex convict."

"Thanks so much"

Later in the day, alvora was in natural science class until she saw the principal being arrested. Alzar sent her a not saying:

You are done for. Another mistake!!!

Alvora stood up and went straight to the door.

"Miss alvora any problem?"

" I just need to go to the sick bay."

"You know your it is only one week left to the finals"

"Yes Mr basmon i will ask orion for his note" Al Ora said as she bolted away. As she was almost at the sick bay, she glanced above her shoulder and saw the principal. He gave her a 'i will hunt you look'. She shrugged as she walked into the sick bay's reception.
