Rashell

Chapter 59

Xavier and Rashell move away from the crowd to the corridor leading to the washroom.

" I can't stand it anymore."
" What thing?"

" Everything. My heart, my mind is always you."

Tyron moves through the crowd trying to find Rashell.

" Hey Victor, have you seen Rashell?"
" She left with Xavier."

" Alright. Do you know where they are?"
" Naa."

" We will be enrolling into college soon please say something."

" I can't Xavier.... I'm sorry."

" Is it Tyron? Tell me! I can be better than him if you just give me the chance to prove it please."

" You are making it difficult for me."

Tyron finds them and because the music is not that loud at where they're standing, he could hear what they were saying.

He stands there quietly listening to their conversation.

" I'm not, please understand."
Xavier moves round touching the walls.

" Calm down.. please just listen to me."

" So about the kiss, did it mean anything to you?"

Tyron shrinks back at the wall with his head up.
" A kiss? He asks himself."

"Xavier, the kiss was a mistake."

" A mistake? You came after me Rashell and not after Tyron that day."

" It was because.... I wasn't..."

" What? I can make you happy, just allow me."

Xavier with fear in his eyes walks closer to Rashell and touches her face.

" I want you."

Rashell looks into his eyes still concerned with what he wants to do.

" I'm sorry but I can't."

Tyron draws closer to them and to his surprise, Xavier is kissing Rashell and Rashell is just standing there and not doing anything. Tyron just walks away in pain. Rashell pushes Xavier.

"No puedo!!!"

" Just love me!"

" No seré capaz de hacerlo! No puedo!! I love Tyron, Xavier..I love him!! Just stay away from me!"

" I can't Rashell!!!"

" I don't care! Just .... mantente alejado de mí..... maybe you shouldn't have come to the States for me."

She says and runs away. Xavier hits the wall in anger. Rashell joins Victor.

" Have you seen Tyron?"
" No why?"

" He was looking for you.."

" Where's he?"

" He just left."

Hearing that, she runs out without her bag and tears well up in her eyes.

Tyron's car is still parked outside but he is out there walking in the middle of the road with cars moving on the left and right.

She asks for his whereabouts.

" He went that way."
" Thanks."

Crying she begins to run looking and calling out his name. She gets to the roadside, stops a taxi and jumps into it.
