Aaron's P.O.V

Time seemed to punish me by moving slow as I thought about her. It's been a week since we started dating and it has been amazing.

I was supposed to go to her house today to read but she's going for a programme in church so I have to wait till tomorrow which is Monday by the way, meaning we'll be busy.

Exams will be starting on Wednesday and I'm really vexed. Actually, I'm sad because after exams we'll go on holiday and Naomi is travelling and I'm also travelling. I won't get to spend Christmas with her.

I sigh heavily and move from my window where I was standing and crash on my bed.

I pick up my phone and dial her number. I put the phone on speaker and wait patiently for her to pick up. Okay, not too patiently.

It rings but she doesn't pick up. Weird, Naomi picks up her calls all the time.

I call her again, no response.

Maybe she's just busy.

I really want to speak to her, I feel like she's in danger that's why I've been thinking about her.

God please protect her I pray inwardly.

There's a knock on my door.

"Come in" I say sitting up.

My door opens and Adrien walks in with Ayo following behind him.

"When was the last time you cleaned this place?" My brother asks scrunching up his nose.

Ayo walks over and sits on my bed and we do our bro handshake.

"I don't know midterm break" I say trying to remember.

He shakes his head and sits on the couch.

My brother is an extremely neat person, he never loses anything. He got that trait from my mum. She was a very clean person. The house was always in tip top shape when she was alive.

Adrien still cleans the house when he's around. He's usually at Bimbo's house.

"Dad is coming home tomorrow" Adrien says facing me.

I hear Ayo groan beside me. I don't even ask why because I already know the reason.

My dad doesn't like him so when my dad is around he can't come over here.

I wonder why the man is even coming home. He's never here, always travelling about. I'm used to it.

I'll just go over to Bimbo's house and stay there until he leaves. I wish Bimbo's parents could even adopt me sef so I can have parents.

Maybe I'll asks Aunty Lola about it.

"Something is wrong with your countenance" Adrien says to me.

"I noticed it too, are you alright?" Ayo asks.

I hiss inwardly. These two always acting like they can see through me or something. It's so funny and low-key insane that I can't hide anything from them.

"I'm fine" I say avoiding eye contact with either of them.

"Is it about Naomi?" Adrien asks catching me off guard.

Am I this easy to read?

"Why does she have to be your first guess?" I ask with a smirk.

Ayo gives me an are you for real look.

"Because, she is all you ever think and talk about these days" Ayo says in a matter of fact voice.

"True" I say in agreement with him.

"So what happened to her?" Adrien asks.

"I don't know, I just feel like she's not safe" I say and it sends a chilly feeling through my body.

"Have you tried calling her?" Ayo asks with concern in his voice.

"She didn't pick" I say with a huff.

"I'm sure she's fine, don't get yourself worked up" Adrien says.

I nod. I hope you're alright Naomi.

"How does it feel to finally love again after two years?" My brother asks.

I look at him with a very odd expression on my face. This boy is mad.

You can always count on him to ask you the weirdest things at the weirdest times.

"To be very honest with you, it feels great" I say smiling.

If I didn't face my fears of abandonment, I would never have had the mind to accept Naomi and I'm glad I did. I would have let an Angel pass me by.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Naomi's P.O.V

"The Lord said I should tell you something"!

The pastor's voice boomed through the speakers all over the auditorium.

I was presently in church attending a programme which I'm not really feeling by the way.

I love going to church normally but today ehn, my mind is not just settled. I have a lot of work to do and time is going. I'm not even concentrating again.

God have mercy on me.

I bring out my phone to check the time and I see that I have two missed calls from Aaron.

I open WhatsApp and send him a text to tell him that I'm in church.

The lines turn blue to show that he has read it.

I'm about to keep my phone when his call comes in.

What is wrong with this boy sef?

I get up from my seat and make my way to the door carefully so my parents don't see me leaving.

I walk to the back of the church and pick the call.

"Hey, what's the matter" I say putting the phone to my ear.

"Nothing, I was just checking on you" he says.

"Ode, that's why you are calling se? You can't send text?" I ask.

"I needed to hear your voice to be sure" he says.

"Oya, you've heard my voice. Are you happy now?" I ask smiling.

"Yup, so how are you?" He asks.

"I'm good...Ahh" I say rubbing my neck.

"What happened?" he asks sounding alarmed.

"Nothing, I'm sure something bit me" I say.

"Are you sure?" he asks.

"Yeah" I say even though I'm not.

I close my eyes and throw my head back, I feel weak in my knees all of a sudden and my legs feel like jelly.

"Naomi, are you there?" Aaron asks but he voice sounds far away.

"I am" I say then I hang up.

I'm feeling weak if I talk to Aaron he might notice it in my voice. I feel another sharp pain in the same spot in my neck.

I've got to get back inside. I attempt to walk away but my legs fail me and I fall to the ground.

Then everywhere becomes pitch black.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Aaron's P.O.V

I come out of the bathroom where I hid to make the call with a sad look on my face.

"So....how did it go?" Ayo asks.

"She said she's okay and she sounded okay" I say with a shrug.

"See, everything is alright" Ayo says with a smile.

"Her voice changed though before she hanged up she sounded weak and tired" I say feeling confused.

"Don't overthink it she's good" Ayo says in a reassuring tone.

I have nothing to say so I just nod.

"I'm going to watch TV with Adrien wanna come?" he asks getting up.

"I'll join you guys later" I say getting my laptop.

"Alright, jack off in peace" he says with a smirk.

I give him my middle finger when I realize what he just said.

He laughs loudly and leaves my room.

Idiot!

"I'm good"

I replay those words in my head again and again.

For some reason it just doesn't sit well with me.

A/N 

I finally managed to update. Praise God somebody!!😀

I had the ideas oo but I just couldn't put them in words. This chapter was fvcking hard to write and I really don't why. I think it's because i'm not stable emotionally at the moment.

Let me explain. No nobody dumped me. That's what everyone has been assuming.🙄🙄

I lost a family member. I've been really down since I got the news and i'm not myself at all. 😞😞😞💔

I didn't put on my phone for two days and when I did this morning I say the 3K+ reads and I just had to update.

So next update might be next week. Just please bear with me and give me this week to recover.😔😔

ALright, that's all. Oh wait, thanks for the 3K you all are amazing 😘😘

I keep forgetting to add this, the ship name that won is Aaromi.
