Final day of exams.
''Get ready to stop work'' the main invigilator said as he walked about in the centre.
''Today, is your last paper. I wish you a brighter future ahead. It has been nice knowing you for the past three years of your school lives. Let's keep up the good friendship and continue to be good kids''
Inayah stood up with her paper and went to hand it in. A few other students followed suit.
After taking her bag from the porters' lounge, Inayah turned to leave and saw Noah standing in front of her.
''Ayah, can I speak with you for a minute?''
''What else do you have to say?'' Inayah asked him. She looked ahead and saw Clara and the others walking towards them.
''It won't take long I promise''
''No, you can't see her alone'' Clara said as she went forward to hold Inayah's hand.
''Clara, is okay. I will be back. Guys, wait for me at the entrance, I will be there soon''
