Better days ahead (series book1) Chapter 31

....I Will Go To The Station.

Alero's POV.

I just got to school and I am already dreading today, the time now is 6:15am, look how early I am. I went to the janitors closet to see the janitor, that is his office and where all the cleaning materials and items are.

"Good morning sir."

"You must be Alero the one eyeing one of the staffs car."

"Yes."

"Grab a bucket and a mop stick, fill the bucket with water, here us some detergent, go sweep the first floor and when you are done, come sweep and mop this floor, okay.

"How will I manage to do this, I can't sweep and mop the first and second floor, I have never worked like this please go easy on me."

"Or, I can just go to the school principal and tell her that you refuse to do the work I assign to you, maybe you would like a month suspension instead."

"No! Please do not do that I am just saying you should reduce the work for me, let me just sweep and mop the first floor, then you can mop this floor the second floor."

"Are you out of your mind?"

"No sir."

"Then get to work." With that he left.

How can someone be so cruel and where is Dinela?!, Did she not say she will assist me, how can I do what this janitor man asked me?!, the first and second floor are really big, my arms will break before I am done sweeping this floor.

Mrs Amira's POV.

I was already on my way to work, wait!! Why do I need Ahmad to help me translate it when I have google translator,thank God I am already at work in the parking lot, let me quickly check for the translation.

"A blue orb."

"Where is it?"

"What part of the closet?"

"I have got it."

"Where are you?"

"What does Mr Dario want to use it for."

"I really do not know."

"And why is the police officer helping us."

"Because I told him that Axymah is the bad one and Mr Dario is the victim, the naive man believed me and that's how I got him to help us."

"Okay I am leaving."

What could that blue orb be for? why does Mr Dario have it? Maybe it's nothing, I don't think so, I will have to dwell on that later I need to find Mr Dario ASAP, I will travel in merely two days and what imbecile would believe that Mr Dario is the victim and that he is a good man, some people ate just brainless.

Alero's POV.

I don't think I have ever wished for classes to be longer but today I really wish that, because at the end of school I will have to work, I am really starting to hate this janitor.

"From now on you will call me Messi because that is my name."

"Whatever."

"I wanted to ask you to go home and I will finish up but with that attitude I will leave you to finish up all of the cleaning, I want to go have something to eat."

"I am sorry, please do not change your mind about it."

"Too late, the faster you clean up the sooner you will go home and do not forget to clean the females bathroom."

I can not believe I will clean the females bathroom, I began to gaggle.

After I finished cleaning the floor I went to the females bathroom to start cleaning it and that is when I heard something so shocking that I can't even begin to phantom.

I over heard the conversation between Debby gold and Happiness.

"You told Axymah that she killed her own mother despite knowing that it is not true, I don't understand why you did that."

"I only said that because I knew that her friends, Dinela and Alero were eavesdropping, and I also know that Dinela is narrow minded, now because of what I said her friends are no longer speaking to her, they do not even want to be anywhere near her."

"You are so wicked."

"Yeah, I know."

"But where is Azyma, I have not been seeing her."

"Mr Dario has beaten her to the point that she is now in a coma and has fled no one knows where he is except me."

"What do you mean? What is your relationship with Mr Dario?"

"You will find out soon enough."

"You did not tell me who really killed Azyma's mother."

"Mr Dario was the one that killed her because she would have exposed him for abusing her daughter and he would have been jailed, he chose freedom over love and till this say he blames Azyma for her mother's death because if Azyma never told her mother what Mr Dario does to her, he would have not result to killing Azyma's mother."

"Oh, but did she not die in a car accident and she was even buried even though she was burnt beyond recognition."

"Mr Dario cut the breaks in her car and poured fuel inside the car so it will blow up after the accident and another car was unfortunate to be driving on the same road so they hit each other and that made the explosion even more and she did not burn."

"Excuse me."

"You will not understand unless I tell you everything but I cannot tell you everything, just stay away from Azyma and her friends and anyone that like her and do not render her any help if not your life will be in danger, Mr Dario will not hesitate to kill anyone that tries to spoil his plan and also Mr Dario is not Azyma's step father, him and Azyma's mother never got married after Azyma's father's death so don't call them father and daughter."

"Okay I understand that, so tell me where he is hiding."

"Why do you want to know?"

"Can I not know? Come on I am your best friend and I always tell you everything."

"Okay fine, I will tell you."

"He is hiding in a small apartment in Area 2."

"Okay."

I cannot believe this, we were so wrong about all this, this calls for an emergency meeting with Dinela and Austin, I should finish up quickly.

I quickly finished and I called Austin and Alero to meet me at my house. I got home and met my dad in the living room and my mom is probably in the kitchen as usual.

"Good afternoon dad."

"Afternoon,how was school? and being a janitor."

"Not fine."

"Next time, you will not go standing next to people's car,Dinela is waiting for you in your room and Austin went to get me a bottle of coca cola."

"Okay."

I went into my room and saw Dinela sitting on my bed like she own it as usual.

"Sup girl, why did you call us so urgently? I have home works to do so make this fast."

"While I was cleaning the females bathroom I overhead Debby gold and Happiness talking."

"You washed the females bathroom, gross, so what did you hear them say."

Flashback.

I don't think I have ever wished for classes to be longer but today I really wish that, because at the end of school I will have to work, I am really starting to hate this janitor.

"From now on you will call me Messi because that is my name."

I can not believe I will clean the females bathroom, I began to gaggle.

After I finished cleaning the floor I went to the females bathroom to start cleaning it and that is when I heard something so shocking that I can't even begin to phantom.

"He is hiding in a small apartment in Area 2."

"Okay."

End of flashback.

"What!!"

"You were wrong about Azyma and she tried to tell us that Debby gold was wrong but we did not believe her."

"How would I have known that Azyma was right?"

"I don't know! Maybe because she told you."

"The police officers must be looking for him I will go today and go tell them where Mr Dario is hiding."

"You can't and won't do that."

"Yes I will."

"No you will not."

"Watch me, like usual I listened to you but you were wrong shit you were dead wrong, from now on I will follow my instinct you are not the boss of me, I will go to the station and I will help Azyma."

"Didn't you hear what Debby gold told Happiness that her life will be in danger if she helps Azyma and you want to do exactly that."

"Yes because unlike you, I have a conscience."

"I wonder what your parents will say when they hear what you want to do."

"Nothing will stop me from helping Azyma the sooner you understand that the better."

"Whatever, but if you get yourself in trouble don't come running to me." With that she left.

I will go to the station after I have had something to eat, I am famished.
