AYAAN sighed coming out of the bathroom,he look at himself in the mirror,he dries his long hair blowing it with hand dryer. Ayaan is not a full Nigerian boy,he has a Nigerian father and an Arabian mother,that's why he has grey eyes. His eyes are from his mom,he has a light brown skin obviously a mixture from his mom and dad,a long and curly hair which is obviously not a Nigerian type of hair. He stands different from most of his mates and he knows that

He wore his uniform, preparing tea and bread with fried egg for himself. Ayaan doesn't live in the hostel like the rest of the students,he has his own cabin in the school not because his father is the main share holder of the school but because he is allergic to people touching him,so he lives alone.

When he was done,he took his school bag leaving his cabin making sure to lock the door properly before heading to the class, he decided not to take his breakfast from the school cafeteria today. On his way to class his phone suddenly started ringing, he pull his phone from his pocket

"Miss Olivia" he muttered picking the call

"Ayaan!" Miss Olivia says

"Why are you calling me?" Ayaan asked in not so respectable manner

" Meet me in my office"Miss Olivia said and he ended the call putting his phone back on his pocket,he decided to head to Miss Olivia's office,he stood in front of her door knocking on it

"Come inside!" Miss Olivia said and Ayaan opened the door stepping inside the office,he made sure to close the door behind him

"What?!" He asked

"At least think about my feelings when you talk to me,stop hurting me with your rude voice"Miss Olivia said and Ayaan gaze fell on the floor,he started watching the floor as if it's the most interesting thing in the world "so how are you today?"

"Fine" Ayaan replied monotonously and heard Miss Olivia sighed,he felt her standing up and coming closer to him,he took a step back immediately

"I have warned you to never touch me again!" Ayaan said in a threatening voice,Miss Olivia shut her eyes tightly trying to control her anger before going back to her seat,she took a file opening it

"Well I called you here today because there will be someone new joining the photography club"Miss Olivia says

" What?!"Ayaan said taking a step back and looking at Miss Olivia properly

"A girl precisely and I'm not familiar with the name" Miss Olivia said looking at Ayaan with a smile on her face "well sadly there's another person in the club and you have to try and tolerate her"

" We can actually study photography differently"Ayaan said and Miss Olivia chuckled

" I'm sorry Ayaan,the both of you are working together" Miss Olivia replied

" Are you doing this because of what happened last term?" Ayaan asked giving Miss Olivia a skeptical look

" Of course not..." Miss Olivia's words came out short when she heard a knock on the door "come in!" She shouts and the door opened revealing a student

"Yes Ngozi you came in at the right time,please I need you to help me call for someone"Miss Olivia said

" Okay ma'am"Ngozi replied

" Help me call Zulfa Samah, she's an SS3 student. Tell her I want to see her immediately"Miss Olivia said and the student nodded leaving the office, Ayaan scoffed his jaws ticking, he's obviously angry and he's waiting to see that student that caused this

Few minutes later they both heard a knock on the door,Ayaan turn to look at the door when Miss Olivia asked the person to come inside,Samah pushed the door open entering the office

"Good morning ma'am" Samah greets and Ayaan gave her an annoying look, Samah was ignorant to this

"Good morning,two of you should sit" Miss Olivia said and they both did down " for a very long time no one really put an interest in photography. I'm glad I have a new student who decided to take interest in photography, the two of you are the only members in the club and we will be working every weekend. Saturdays and Sundays"Miss Olivia said and smiled at them " you can go and have your breakfast now"Ayaan scoffed wondering what Miss Olivia is trying to do

"Thank you ma'am" Samah said walking out of the office

"Stay back Ayaan" Miss Olivia suddenly said,Ayaan knew why she wants him to stay

"I have better things to do"he replied angrily leaving the office after making sure to bang the door on his way out, he waited patiently for Samah to come outside, the door suddenly opened and Ayaan turn to see Samah coming out of the office

"To the roof top" he said and started walking away, he noticed Samah wasn't following him and halted turning to see her "follow me" he says walking again this time around Samah followed him

What's your deal?" Ayaan asked immediately they were at the roof top

"Huh?!"Samah says

" What's your deal?! Why are you following me?! You invaded my personal space yesterday and now you're in thesame club with me, which class are you in and who is sending you to do this?!"Ayaan asked angrily and Samah took a step back

" I have no deal with you Ayaan" Samah said and Ayaan scoffed, he doesn't believe one single thing Samah is saying

" You know my name too? I don't even know you"Ayaan said giving Samah a degrading look. To him Samah looks more like a leech

"One I'm your class mate,a scholarship student and two I wasn't invading in your personal space,I just happen to find myself in the garden and three I love photography the way you do,it's not meant for you alone"Samah replied and Ayaan rub his hands from his face to his hair, slightly pulling his hair too. He's obviously frustrated

"Then avoid me at all cost" Ayaan said and Samah chuckled

"I'm sorry that's not possible"Samah said taking a big step towards Ayaan,he wondered what she's planning on doing " you should start getting use to me" Samah said patting his shoulder,Ayaan went rigid immediately his body obviously flagging the red sign

Different horrible memories pass through him in a nanoseconds and he fell on the floor having difficulties in breathing,it all felt like deja Vu again before he was completely enveloped in darkness

***

"Oh my God! Ayaan! Ayaan!" Ayaan hears from a distance,he slowly open his eyes back to the world of reality,he saw Miss Olivia standing beside him and her hands on him

"Don't touch me!" He struggles to say and Miss Olivia takes a step away from him immediately

" Let's take you to the school clinic" Miss Olivia said and Ayaan nodded fighting his way to stand up,he struggles to walk down the stair case, giving Miss Olivia the evil eyes whenever she tries to help him. He successfully made it to the school clinic and he was given drugs,after taking it he fell asleep

**

Ayaan wakes up to see Miss Olivia sitting on a seat beside his bed,he sat down slightly stretching his body

"I think it's better for you to go back to your cabin" Miss Olivia says while Ayaan stands completely from the bed

"No,I'm going to class" he said and started walking out of the clinic, Miss Olivia followed him immediately

"What happened? Why did you faint?" Miss Olivia asked,Ayaan drew in a deep breathe before turning to see Miss Olivia

"You're making this too obvious don't you think?,won't you feel uncomfortable if the students finds out?"Ayaan asked opening the door to his class,he entered and Miss Olivia followed him in

***

Ayaan sighed as he opened the door to his cabin,he entered inside dropping his bag on one of the sofas in the sitting room,he went straight to his room taking off his uniform before heading to the bathroom,after having a nice shower and ordering for dinner,he went to take his camera going through the latest pictures he have taken

"I'm sorry that's not possible"

" you should start getting use to me"

"Who do she think she is" Ayaan muttered after remembering what Samah said "she's so weird"he added shaking his head. He sat down on his bed taking his camera with him as he goes through the pictures he have taken,his smile suddenly died when he sees a certain picture,he put down his camera

Will you paint it for me

He shook his head as some memories tries coming up,he suddenly heard a knock on his door and went over to open it

"Thank you" he said with a smile on his face collecting the food he ordered, he sat on his sitting room switching the television on and started taking his dinner. When he was done,he took his phone and earpiece leaving the cabin to his usual spot in the garden

He lay on the floor using his earpiece when he suddenly started thinking about his family,he close his eyes enjoying the silence. He suddenly felt someone's presence and opened his eyes

"What's your problem?" He asked removing his earpiece when he saw the intruder, his good mood started going sour immediately

"I find myself here again, this place is so beautiful and it keeps on calling on me"Samah replied and Ayaan scoffed, he is not ready to deal with her

" I will leave then" he says standing up

"So you will keep on leaving every night?"

Is she fucking serious right now?!

" What do you mean?"

"I will keep on coming here every night,so I'm asking you, are you going to keep on leaving every night?"Samah asked

" I should report you to the school authority then" Ayaan said and Samah chuckled slightly

" You won't and I know you won't do that"Samah replied

The guts!

"How sure are you?" Ayaan asked

"Ever had a friend? Someone you confine in or someone that's just there to fill in the absence? Even if it's just a day?"

" What's this question all of a sudden?"Ayaan asked and Samah stood up going closer to him

" Let me teach you something"

"Don't touch me" he says taking a step back, he really hates it especially when an opposite sex tries touching him regardless the intention

" Okay then I won't touch you but you have to do as I say"

Seriously?!

" Who said I was going to obey you?"he asked shaking his head,he tried walking away again but Samah's voice stopped him

"You should take risks Ayaan! I don't know but I just feel like telling you this,try something new once in awhile"She said and he turn looking at her "trust me,I swear I won't touch you,just try this out and you can criticize me if you don't like it anyhow you want"Ayaan thought about it some moments

"Okay" he replied

***

After leaving Samah on the garden, Ayaan went back to his room slumping on the bed. He dropped his phone beside him and sighed. He doesn't understand why he decided to do what Samah asked him to do but he couldn't lie he enjoyed it, he have never been in someone's presence for that long without any threatening feelings

"What's even her name" he muttered feeling sleepy, he yawned remembering Samah's smile.

He agreed to himself Samah have a very beautiful smile, she have an ordinary face with her brownish skin color which is darker than his, she's averagely tall and slim too but one thing stood out most, her smile.
