"I uh..." I stutter, pushing a few strands of hair that keep flying into my face, behind my ear. "Now that you're here, I just realised you've been absent for a while. Hope everything is okay with you."

"Oh yes. I'm perfectly okay. I just had an emergency to take care of back home, that's why lleft abruptly. But it's all good now. Thanks for asking."

He says with a worried expression and my mood nearly turns sour thinking about what I had to go through in that bitch's hands. I swear the next time I set eyes on her, I won't stop myself from plucking hair strands from her scalp.
