**********************************************
"Who is they, and why are they following you?" I asked concerned.
The expression on M's face changed from a look of worry to a look of stern.
It looked genuine.
But why am I failing to believe him? I asked myself.
M sat down.
"To your right, behind the tree about 9 o'clock," he said under his breath.
For sure, there was an almost unnoticable figure behind the tree watching.
My breathing became heavy and I began to sweat plenty.
He was being followed too, like I was a few days ago.
Why?
The so called tests were over with and M already passed like all the other kids in Year 10-C.
Is it that they still suspected him, or is this someone different altogether.
It creeped me out being stalked like this but M kept his composure perfectly.
He did all the right things to do when being stalked.
He came to an open area,
Found a person,
And pretended as if nothing happened.
Maybe he didn't come here because he had a choice. But why not go home instead.
They were so many questions I wanted to ask him but I stayed silent to avoid making the stalker any more suspicious.
We begun chatting and tried to have some small talk.
"Why did you flip me a couple of weeks ago." he asked me.
"I don't know." I answered.
That was basically how all the conversations went. A closed question with a short two to three word answer.
The awkwardness was so unbearbale. We were unable to keep a proper conversation going.
"Did you enjoy the kiss?" he finally asked.
What, What a bombshell.
I hadn't thought about it ever since I saw the stalker.
And even before that I didn't exactly have time to think about the kiss after finding out it was just used to distract some unknown person.
SO HOW DID I FEEL?
I thought about it for a couple of minutes...
"I don't know."
that was my well-thought-out answer.
I had no idea how I felt or how I was supposed to feel.
M's expression never changed, he just buried his head into his hoodie.
Then, all of the sudden M stood up so ubruptly he almost flipped the bench.
"He's gone." he said, "I didn't think he would leave at all."
Those words were unusual. Not so unusual to be noticed but I noticed it.
He put his infaces on ' he'. Like he knew the exact gender of the stalker.
Was this set up
No, it couldn't be. I saw the expressions on his face. They couldn't have been falsified they were real.
"He?" Iasked him.
"Huh?" was his reply.
"He, you put emphasize on the word he when referring to the figure. Why?" I told him plainly.
"..."
He pasued for a bit. Just a moment then,
"I thought you of all people would have noticed. It was because of the tree."
The tree? and what does he mean by me of all people?
"The way the figure was leaning on the tree was more masculine than feminine. Secondly, the clothing he was wearing but emphasise on his abdomen to show his muscles. Feminine clothes are more collar type. And lastly I spoke to him before coming here."
What. Spoke. And why didn't he lead with this in the first place, was he testing me?
For some reason, my suspicion of him went up to a whopping 55%. Not for any solid or specific reason. It is just that his Alabi doesn't add up in any way.
Out of the blue, he asked again.
"Why did you flip me that day?"
Why does he want to know so bad
I was going to say I don't know again but then I realized I would be playing into his hands. Its strategy.
He knows what I am going to say. I am going to avoid the question but if I do I will become more predictable. So I decided to...
"Because I thought you were the playmaker." I told him going straight to the point, "And quite frankly I still do believe you are. Your entire persona is off and now this incident just boosted my suspicion of you altogether!"
He looked surprised as though he didn't expect me to say that. But then he suddenly began laughing hysterically.
"What's so funny, I just told you that you are my number one suspect as the playmaker and you are laughing. Are you stupid or something?"
"Its just so funny because. Annie Katz you to are my number one suspect." he said and began to burst out laughing.
What?
The words left my mouth before I could stop them. WHy me?
Why would he suspect me of all people???
