On Friday of the following week.

***

Ryan tiredly drove  back to his dorm room when he was done with his lectures for the day, his backpack hung on his shoulders as he alighted from his car after safely parking it in the dorm's parking lot. With a swift turn, he made for the elevator.

Reaching the front of  his door, he yanked open and lazily walked in. He shrugged off his backpack and landed himself on his bed.

He turned on his back staring at the ceiling when his pocket vibrated with a sound that followed. the last thing Ryan needed was someone calling him after a stressful day... Reaching for his phone in his pocket, he yanked out and stared at the caller ID before tapping the answer button. "Hello Alex."

"Hey! what's up dude?" 

" You too, just tired from the day's activities."

"Oh! I see, sorry for any interruption."

" No problems, want something?"

"Yeah,  I was thinking if you could help take  Ifes for her driving lessons today on my behalf? I can't teach her today because I still have lectures today, my schedules are tight and by the time I'm done, there will be no time again.. you know she can't afford to miss a day."

Ryan placed his hand on his forehead. "so you're saying I should go teach her today?"

" Yes, if you don't mind."

Okay, gotchya, I'll give her a call then leave my dorm room after eating lunch."

"Thanks man, I knew I could count on you."

"You mean like one two three."

Ayo chuckled. "Stop  being silly."

" Whatever."

"It's time for anatomy, got to go now."

"Catchya later." Ryan tapt the end button on his phone and tossed it on his side. He got up, took off his shirt leaving only his singlet as he dragged himself to the kitchen.

He went to the fridge, opened it and brought out a can of soda...., Feeling too exhausted to do anything in its proper way, Ryan uncapped the drink and drunk straight from the bottle, he didn't stop till he emptied the content into his belly.

Feeling a bit satisfied and energized, he spun around to prepare himself some ham and cheese.... after eating up the two slices of bread, he made another two slices, and another, and finally felt better after eating eight slices.

Ryan took up another can of soda and emptied its contents straight into his stomach, he was eating like an hungry lion but he didn't care... he thought it was worth it after so much stress of the day..

After eating, Ryan wanted to go lay back on his bed when he remembered Alexes call, he pressed his knuckles on his forehead as he took up his phone with his free hand. He unlocked the screen and put a call across to ifes.

She picked after the third ring. "Hello Ryan."

"Hey! what's up Babe?"

" Great, just finished eating lunch."

"That  makes two of us."

"You weren't looking good The  last time I saw you, believe you feel better now?"

"I  guess so."

Ifes grinned. "Got no choice, you  have to."

"Well, all thanks to doctor Charles for doing this to us, I'm yet to forgive him for sapping out my energy today."
