CHAPTER ONE: SURVIVAL

It's 7:30 am and I still want to sleep, the sound of my Alarm has been on for a while and I still haven't left my bed,I know,I'm pretty much insane but I want to sleep more!!!    I've got classes by 8am, Mr Arewa Psychology class and he takes attendance very serious!      "Ronyyyyyyyyyyyy! Oh my God! Do you even know what time it is now! We are going to be late for class!!!!" My Best friend Teefah screeched as she tried to get me out of bed, "if you don't get dressed in 15 minutes,I am leaving without you" that being said she stormed out of my room knowing fully well, I could never survive school without her, I mean literally, I have phobia for people especially males and sometimes I freak out and have a hard time breathing around people, thanks to my best friend, I still am in a good state mentally, although she worries a whole lot on why this happens, she couldn't get an answer out of me, as I bring up varieties of excuses to cover up my anxiety issues, I am one lucky girl when it comes to her, sometimes I feel undeserving of her, she is the best anyone can find ,both as a friend and a sister, and I mean that in the best way possible, Still in my petty thoughts, I hurriedly showered and was dressed; all set in 25 minutes, That is pretty fast for me by the way! But I didn't dare complain as I wouldn't want to be left alone(although she would never go anywhere without me).        Anyways we walked down a few blocks to school, me in my usual weird outfit, the all black seems to fit me more and my Hot Best friend in her Navy green combat shorts, a white crop top and her lovely combats Boots! I could literally feel the eyes of students on us as we walked to our class , actually me tiptoeing because I feel better when no sound comes out, pretty pathetic but Who Cares!. Exactly One minutes into the class, Mr Arewa walked in and locked the door, started his class with an impromptu test I wasn't prepared for. Before leaving, he announced or more like told us he won't be coming back to teach us, and said he will introduce us to our new psychology lecturer, class turned noisy, grumbles with mixed feelings filled the air, some Happy, some sad about the News while some others like me who didn't care much just stared. Just then I sensed a presence before I saw him, someone maybe an inch taller than Mr Arewa walked into our class, and I felt these deep feeling of fear clawing my lungs, trying to break free and choke me, I tried to catch my Breath, trying to understand these sudden feelings, yet I couldn't leave because then everyone would start to notice me and I didn't want that, Not after everything!  shaking my head and putting my lett hand on my chest trying to calm down, I raised my head  to get a full glimpse of our new Psychology Lecturer, I felt my heart drop from my chest as I tried to contain the fast rate of my beating heart. My head was pounding and the whole class became blurry, "Rony! Rony! Are u alright?, Oh my God Rony!! Breathe! Breathe girl, please! I heard my best friend voice from a distance as she tried to bring me back to my senses, listening more to where the sound was coming from, I felt my breath calm down as the beautiful face of my best friend came into view, " thank God!! I heard her mutter under her breath as I asked her if she was fine, she just laughed and mouthed "you are crazy" while she kept stealing funny looks at me. Looking up to the front of the class, I felt before I saw his eyes staring back at me with a creepy smile on his face, feeling uncomfortable under his stare, I tried to figure out where I had met him before, and why did I get a panic attack in class even if it was a minor one, I looked closely and saw that he looked  different from the last time I saw him, more memories coming back to my head, his eyes are no longer that dark gray but instead he was wearing green contact lenses and his usually full hair is now styled in a different way, more responsible than how he really is. "Wait! It can't be! No! I stabbed him myself that night, how is he not dead!" I felt another wave of attack come through, I tried to control myself and managed to whisper to my best friend that I had to go use the bathroom, looking for a way to escape without making a fool of myself. I raised my hands seeking permission to leave the class, standing up, I couldn't feel my legs, even then, I realized my vision has become blurry, before I could even do anything, I was in the middle of nowhere, everything on sight has become dark, and at that moment I felt nothing as I hit the bare floor!
