Anisah stared at Waleed and immediately erupted into a great laughter. She couldn't belive her eyes,  "What are you doing here?" She asked, still laughing.

The kids immediately started pouring water on Anisah making Waleed laugh as well. They both couldn't stop laughing while getting wet by the kids. "Please Kids,  stop it" Waleed said and they immediately stopped.

"I will see you guys next week, Now come give me a hug" he said and all the kids immediately ran and Engulfed him in a bone crushing hug.

"I'll miss you" they all said in unison. Anisah on the other hand immediately walked towards where she had left Jamal standing but couldn't find him. Waleed walked over to her and said "what were you doing here?" He asked.

"I came along with Jamal and I can't seem to find him" Anisah said while searching arround with her eyes.

"Let's go home, I'll drop you off" he said which made Anisah stare at him in shock. "What?" He asked.

"Nothing, let's go" He said and they both walked out of the orphanage and headed straight to the Car where they both Hopped in.

"Take your seatbelt please and make sure you don't scratch my vehicle" Waleed said and Anisah rolled her  eyes.  While buckling her seatbelt.

They drove for about sixteen minute until Waleed stopped at a House. "Stay here,  I'll be right out in thirty minutes" he said to Anisah who nodded and picked up her phone.  She watched him get down and walked away.

She picked out her phone from her backpack and immediately called Jamal who picked up on the second dial.
"I'm so sorry for leaving like that" Jamal Immediately said as soon as he picked the call.

"Well, you've got some explaining to do Mr" she said.

"My mum actually suffered an asthma attack and I had to take her to the hospital" he said.

"Oh my God, how's she now? " Anisah was quick to ask.

"She's doing good now, and I'm sorry. How did you get home by the way?" He asked.

"Waleed, I'm presently waiting for him. He branched somewhere" Anisah said.

"Waleed?, That's a shocker" Jamal said and Anisah chuckled.

"I know right, I'm also shocked" Anisah said and Jamal chuckled.

"The guy isn't that bad though" Jamal said.

"I guess so" Anisah mumbled.

"Yeah, Anisah I'll call you later... I'm speaking to the doctor regarding my mum's reports" He said.

"Alright, please send my regards to her" Anisah said and Jamal said an okay before hanging up.

Anisah sat back in the car and decided to play a game, watch a movie, and even fall asleep. Waleed had been gone for close to two hours, it was already night.

"Hey!" Anisah heard Waleed's voice in her sleep. So she thought she was dreaming and didn't open her eyes until he tapped her.

"Oh my God" she got up, fear lynched in her mind. Waleed chuckled.

"Sorry about coming late" Waleed apologized.

"Why do you smell like a hospital?" Anisah questioned.

"None of your business" he ignited the car and Immediately started driving. Anisah decided not to meddle in his business and focused her attention on her dying phone.

On getting to a dead end which was blocked with a tree branch, Waleed stopped his car and looked outside the window where police officials stood.

"Excuse me, why is here blocked?" Waleed asked.

"The Sars protest is going on. No one is allowed to pass through here" Waleed cursed the moment he heard that, for that was the only way home.

"Alright thanks" he said and turned arround.

"Where are we going to now?" Anisah asked.

"We'll be going to a hotel, I know one close by" Waleed said.

"A hotel?, With separate rooms right?" She asked and he nodded while driving into JV hotel.

Immediately they arrived, they got out in jiff and made their way towards the receptionist "Hello, we need two rooms please" Waleed said.

"I'm sorry we are out of rooms, we only have one room available" The receptionist said and Waleed hissed.

"We'll take it" He said. Fear immediately engulfed Anisah's mind. How could she share a room with a man. She thought.

"isn't there another hotel?" She asked.

"This is the only one in this Area" The receptionist answered. "Here are your keys sir" She said while staring at Anisah's uniform, what could a school girl be doing with a grown ass man, she thought.

"Thanks" They both thanked her and walked away. On arriving at the room, Waleed turned on the light. The room had a television, a bed, a couch and even a kitchen and a toilet. It was nice.

"We'll stay here for the night, you can sleep on the couch" Waleed said and Anisah nodded while placing her backpack on the couch.

"May I use the toilet?" She asked and he nodded. She went in and spent over a minute, she was dusting her wet hair.

Immediately she walked out, she saw Waleed seated on the bed and watching the television where SpongeBob SquarePants was being shown. She sat on the couch and focused her attention on the television as well.

"I placed an order for food, do you like rice and stew?" He asked and Anisah nodded.

"Ok" he said. He focused his attention on the television once again. Anisah on the other hand felt something on her neck but didn't know what it was, until she placed her hand behind her back where she picked up a slimy wall gecko that made her shout her throats out as she began to cry.

"What is it?" Waleed ran to her, before he could do anything, the wall gecko had ran away.

"Are you okay?" She immediately engulfed him in a hug when he had asked that.

"Wall gecko" she said into his chest.

"It's okay, it's gone" he said. He hugged her lightly before pushing her off his body Calmly. "Go watch your hands and maybe even take bath to wash it off" he said and she nodded and got up.

Waleed on the other hand tried finding the gecko but couldn't so he went to the bed where he sat to wait for his food.
