Chapter 108 Joanna Saved A Guy
She kept staring at her cellphone to make sure that she didn't miss an incoming call or message.
Joanna became so restless that she jumps up to go and check the door anytime she heard footsteps outside.
Audrey noticed this strange side of hers but pretended not to.
Just to get her mind off whatever she was expecting Audrey took her out on a walk.
On the streets, Joanna's gaze was in so many places at the same time. Audrey became very affected by this and couldn't keep silent anymore.
She held Joanna's right hand and made her stop walking.
"What is wrong? What exactly are you looking for, your boyfriend?" Audrey asked, looking around to see whether she would be able to find familiar faces.
"Did he promise to meet you today but forgot about it? Is that why you are so restless?"
"If he is bullying you because he thinks you are too kind then tell me and I will…,"
"I am not looking for anyone," Joanna lied sounding irritated.
"Also, I have told you that your guess about me having a boyfriend is wrong so why are…,"
"You seem to be expecting someone, a call or a message from him. I saw you staring at your cellphone and you kept looking around when we came out and that is why I came to this conclusion," Audrey said softly.
"Apart from me, there is no one you are close to so if I am not the one whose message or call you are waiting for then, who is it?" Audrey asked curiously.
Just like that night she also avoided his eyes.
"Are you scared that I will not approve of your boyfriend if I know who he is?" Audrey asked but despite talking so much Joanna remained quiet.
"You…," The ringing tone of Joanna's phone disrupted what Audrey wanted to say.
"It's my alarm indicating that it's time for my class," Joanna said silently jubilating.
[Thank goodness for coming to my rescue because I wouldn't have known how to escape from this]
Joanna smiled from within as she started walking away.
"Where are you running off to, wait for me," Audrey hurried to meet up with Joanna.
Joanna's distraction didn't end during her stroll with Audrey but she carries it to the lecture hall.
Unlike how attentive she always is she was very distracted to the point that if asked the topic of their lecture she wouldn't be able to say the correct answer.
"I didn't sense Chris's presence around throughout today neither did Kay show up nor text me like he often does. Is this a sign that he had encountered some problem?" Joanna muttered.
She was so absent-minded as she walked and didn't feel that someone was secretly following her.
Because there was still time before Audrey's class would be over Joanna decided to wait at the basketball field for her.
Although she pretended to be going through her notes the truth remains that her attention was divided.
While skimming through the notes her attention was also on the cellphone laid beside her black handbag.
Not long, her cellphone dinged and in a flash, Joanna threw the book on the floor and picked up the phone.
She was so upset when she saw that it was just an ad notification that made the cellphone ding.
"He can choose not to call, text or show up, why do I even care?" Joanna said angrily.
"I was the fool for believing what he said," Joanna frowned. She bent and lifted off the book from where she dropped it.
Since she knew that there was no way she is gonna concentrate on her books, she decided to take a stroll around campus.
She was strolling on the secluded part of the campus when she sighted a guy on the rooftop of the building where she stood.
"What the hell is going on? Is he being bullied?" Joanna paused and tried to listen to what was happening on the rooftop.
She didn't get the chance to hear anything when she saw the guy fall off the top of the building.
The first thing she did was to look around to make sure that no one was around.
When Joanna had confirmed that it was only she around, with one powerful leap she soar into the air.
In mid-air, Joanna caught the guy and in her arms, she descended to the ground in the same manner she soar into the sky.
"Are you ok?" Joanna asked as she let down the bewildered guy from her body.
The tall handsome guy with black well-styled short hair stared at Joanna dumbfounded.
He was in a daze until Joanna snapped her finger at his face.
"Did you get hurt?" Joanna asked out of concern. She looked at the visible part of his body to make sure that he wasn't injured.
The guy shook his head negatively to answer her question.
"Is he dumb?" Joanna said inaudibly as she stared at the guy who had beautiful brown eyes.
[Why did he have to possess such a disability. I wasn't even deformed in any way and I was bullied, I can already imagine how much he had suffered all these years. His biggest disadvantage of all has to be that he is handsome]
Joanna felt pity for the guy even though she hasn't met him before.
She could see herself right through his eyes.
[Since he can't talk I guess I don't have to feel worried that he will disclose my secret to others]
Joanna forced a smile when she saw how intently he stared at her.
"I know exactly how it feels to be bullied and as a person who has been through this, I will advise that you avoid high places whenever they want to bully you. This is the only way you can live a bit longer," Joanna tapped him on the shoulder before she turned to leave.
The guy in a grey shirt extended his hand and held Joanna's hand, not letting her walk away.
"Sorry but I have to meet someone so I can't talk with you. Try to be careful ok," Joanna smiled at him genuinely this time around.
She walked away almost immediately.
The guy stood there and stared at her departing back. Even though she was gone he didn't look away.
Joanna was approaching the building of Audrey's department when someone suddenly held her hand and pulled her onto his body.
Her first reaction was to slap the fool hard on his face. Instead of slapping him, she was stunned when she rose her head and got a glimpse of the person's face.
"Kay!" Joanna remarked in astonishment.
"Why the hell are you dressed like this?" Joanna stared at the guy wearing glasses. His long black hair that she has grown to love was gone.
Taking a second look at him, there was only a tiny similarity to the Kayden she knows.
He looked like a different person.
"It's Amos and not Kay," the guy corrected in his husky enchanting voice.
