GHOST’S FRIEND: Episode 21 – 30
Entering the class, Cory rushed to hug me
I stared at her in surprise
She pulled out of the hug and stared directly into my face …:
Are you alright now? She asked and I nodded slowly
And before I knew it, she held my hands as she led me over to my seat
What is with her? I wondered
She sat down in the seat in front of me and then faced me
I widened my eyes in surprise
Is she back to her seat? I wondered as I sat down on my seat
So why did you come to school with Declan, are you both couples? She asked with a grin and I shrugged
Something like that!
What do you mean by that! Are you couples? Yes or no…..
And why are you asking! I fired at her
That is because we are friends. She answered with a pout
Friends! I really doubt her. I muttered and she stared at me with shock written all over her face …
And why did you say that Sasha? She asked with a tiny voice
Simple! Because friends does not hide things from each other. I answered, staring Intently at her
She gave me a confused look
Have I hidden something from you before?
Yes . I replied bluntly
And when was that ? She continued and I smiled lightly
The golden necklace with the “D2” inscription, why didn’t you tell me about it the first day I asked you? I asked and she froze
Why didn’t you? She repeated
Erm erm I don’t know what erm you are talking about. She stuttered
Really! Then why were you scared of my room, is it because of the necklace? I continued and a flicker of fear crossed her face…..
Just stop! Please stop Sasha! She pleaded and then faced the front..
Cory! Cory! I called but she ignored me, instead she placed her head on her table and started vibrating..
I sighed knowing she was crying……
Cory! You are a good person. I said with a louder voice hoping she would hear…………
Just then the Biology teacher walked into the class and as expected, the class became quiet…….
At last! Daphne remarked with a sigh…….
I brought out my Biology book out from my back pack and opened it ready to receive lectures….

the teacher soon began to teach on the reproductive system and the whole class was filled with laughter.
I turned sideways to look at Declan expecting to see him laughing but instead, he had this bored look on his face ….
I could tell he was tired of the class….
What is going on in his mind? I wondered…….

Declan Davies

And we will continue in our next class. The teacher said as she packed her books
I sighed in relief
At last! I muttered ……
And without waiting for her to leave the class, I jolted up from my seat and walked out the class….
Mr Davies! Mr Davies! I heard her call but I ignored her ……
This was the only way I can get out of the class without Sasha following me and bugging me with questions….
I really need to speak with the principal and will do it alone…..

On getting to his office, I knocked on his door
Come in! he answered with his usual husky voice
Pushing the door opened, I walked in to see him writing into a note, sitting behind the huge desk……
Good morning sir! I greeted
he raised his head up and then smiled
Declan! how are you? he asked with a wider smile
Fine! I answered dryly
Good! Why are you here! Do you need something! Was any of the teachers harsh on you? he asked in a rush
No sir ! I answered
Then why are you here? He asked with a knitted eyebrow
I came over to see you! he answered
he stared at me for a while and then nodded slowly
You can have your seat. he offered and I did
So why do you want to see me? he started and I took a deep breathe
My sister! I answered staring intently at him and I swear, I saw a flicker of fear crossed his face which he immediately replaced with a smile
Erm Daphne! Your dead sister! what about her? he asked without meeting my gaze
I smirked
You see sir, I have a feeling that my sister was murdered. I said
And why did you say so! her body was found in the water, you saw that right? he asked with a wavering voice but I shook my head negatively
Oh that is right! Your family was in a confused state!
Sure! I agreed
Then why are you telling me this? he asked
Because I believe you can help me with it. I answered with a mocking smile which he failed to notice
Alright! Erm Declan just leave it to me, I promise to take care of it …..
No sir! I won’t, I will make sure my sister murderers are all brought to book…
And without waiting for his response, I stood up and gave him a slight bow.
Thanks sir. I said and then left his office……
My instincts were right, the principal demeanour clearly shows he knows something about it….
But what exactly is he hiding?

Immediately Declan left the office, I picked up my phone from the table and dialled the chief police number
He picked it on the first ring
Hello Dan! he greeted calling me by my first name
What is going on? I asked coldly
What do you mean? he asked
Someone is beginning to suspect that the child was murdered. I answered
What child? he asked and I scoffed
Are you trying to act smart! I am talking about the girl who was murdered three months ago.
I reminded gritting my teeth
Oh! Daphne Davies. he said
Yes, Daphne Davies! her twin brother just left my office and from the look of it, he seems he knows something about it. I explained
But how is that possible? The chief police asked
Are you seriously asking me that! I retorted angrily, make sure you do proper investigation, I paid you heavily for it so do your duty. I reminded
Of course! he replied
And remember if the truth comes out , we all go down together. I added and ended the call….
I sighed in frustration
I can’t allow the truth be out, never!

Sasha Alfredo

After the teacher left the class, I stood up and was about leaving the class when a familiar voice called me
I looked in the direction of the voice to see Racheal walking towards me …..
What does she want? I wondered
hey Sasha! She greeted
What do you want? I asked with a frown and she chuckled
Chill Sasha! We ain’t fighting or are we? She asked and I scoffed
Why did you stop me? I asked and she smiled lightly
Where are you going?
It is none of your business! I retorted and she smirked
I can see you didn’t heed to my advice, do you think Declan can ever love you! Declan is mine and mine alone . She half yelled
Delusional fool! Daphne who was beside me cur$ed at her and I laughed loudly
What is funny? She asked with a frown
Nothing! I answered and she huffed
I can see you are ….. she paused with her gaze fixed on my upper chest
What is she staring at? I wondered
touching my chest, I immediately knew the reason for her sudden pause, it was the golden necklace…..
I was playing with it during class and completely forgot to put it back inside my gown …..:
Where did you get this? She asked with a trembling voice
And why do you care! Do you know about it? I asked with a slight smile
D2! Where did you get it? She repeated
Daphne gave it to me? I answered
Daphne! She muttered and then shook her head
That is not possible! That is not possible! She repeated still shaking her head…
And why do you think so? I probed on and without answering my question, she walked slowly to her seat like a Zombie…….
What is wrong with her? I wondered
I looked around the still noisy class and met Cory gaze
She smiled lightly and then looked away ……..
