Chapter 43 BLOOD MOON

• Clara was so annoying, I wondered if this was how much she hates me. I have been looking after her since yesterday and didn't even get a thank you, talk more of a hug. "To hell with her" I let out a scoff, heading to my bathroom to have a shower. My mind was made up never to be bothered about her any longer, she was just my maid after all. Hours passed and Clara didn't come back, even when I ordered for my dinner she didn't come with the maids. "Seems like she wasn't fully enlightened about her job" I whispered the moment I saw the maids entering and Clara was no where to be seen. After eating dinner, I brought out her diary and began to read. The next page drew my attention so bad because it wasn't about het normal daily activities, neither was it about her life. The heading was boldly inscribed "The features I want in a guy" I read slowly, unawareness that I was reading it aloud. "Is this some kind of joke? Do people actually do this? What a waste of time" I laughed out loud, flipping over to the next page and continued reading, but my mind was on the previous page I had just skipped. I was dying to read it badly but my pride wouldn't allow me, so I put back the diary under my pillow and lay on my bed to sleep.
• I was awakened by the sound of thunder storms which made me jump out of my bed thinking that it was the Blood moon that had come to attack me before I did tomorrow, but when I opened my eyes and looked through the window, it was raining heavily. A sigh of relief breathe through my mouth for a second and I buried my head in my pillow. I wasn't going to school today because I had a meeting with my members, we need to discuss on how we were going to attack the Blood moon the following day . I couldn't help myself but think about Clara again, wondering if she was going to school and how she was going to go in this heavy rain. "Why do you even care Leo?" I closed my eyes to continue with my sleep, but the thunder storm got louder and was unbearable. I rose up from my bed and ran my hand through my hair while walking to the window to get a glimpse of outside. On getting the window, I saw Clara going to school, she was had an umbrella with her which wasn't even enough to protect her from getting drench by the rain. " What is she thinking" I thought, watching her while was she running towards to gate. I moved to the window at the end of my room which was facing the gate, she stood at the gate showing the guard a pass letter but they didn't even bother to check it before opening the gate for her and I smirked, remembering what I told them the day Clara got hurt.
