Chapter 14

They both stared at each other for a long time before sufy eventually broke the gaze. yes the rude arrogant sufy broke the staring contest between him and my brother, yes Tariq came to see me because I had informed him about my fall.

"When Lulu comes tell her to call me please, her number is not reachable" sufy said before leaving.

"Tariq you finally came to see me" I said happily.

"what were you doing with sufy And why was he feeding you?" Tariq said with his hand across his chest.

"He is my roommates friend and I wasn't able to feed myself that was why he was feeding me" I said.

"I'll have to call dad, I don't want you to continue staying in this room. I do not like you and sufy to interact" he said.

"Why?, what's wrong with sufy?" I asked though I know what he is capable of.

"Sufy is danger, that's all I can say to you" He said while taking a seat next to me.

"well I am not changing my room because of him, as it is he our department president so do you expect me to also change my course because of him?" I asked.

"No, ahh" he scooped a spoon of my noodles and tried to feed me which I agreed.

"ouch, tariq do you wanna wound me?" I placed my tongue on the spot where the fork had pierced, I expected sufy to wound me but he was calm and very gentle while feeding me.

"Sorry" he said in a chuckle.

"you didn't ask about Saafa, why?" I said while using my left hand to put away the food.

"Do I need to always ask about her?" he said rudely.

"Tariq Saafa is your little sister too" I said and he rolled his eyes.

"She is not my little sister, I hate her and her family. Her dad is the reason why our mother died and I'll never forgive her dad and her for that" he said wiping the little tears in his eyes.

"It was a mistake" I mumbled "Feed me water please" I said in a pout and he nodded, he walked towards the kitchen area and got me water which he fed me with.

"Thank you" I said and he smiled.

"Be careful with sufy please, don't listen to anything he tells you. He is the epitome of evill" he said and I nodded.

"I will" I said and he nodded with a smile.

"so are you the only one here today?" he asked and I nodded.

"Ayya" he said.

"Do you have any work for me to do for you?" he asked and I nodded in the negative.

"Nope" I said stressing on the P.

"No clothe?, No plate?, No Assignment?" He said and I let out a loud laughter.

"Tariq, Nothing. I got a lady to help me" I said and he nodded.

"Alright, let me wash this one" he said while picking up my plate of noddled

He stayed with me for hours until he decided to leave. It was a very great day for me because we got to catch up.

"And I heard about Farooqs death" Tariq said while we were taking a stroll down the road on my request. It was actually a little bit late, it was apparently 7:55pm.

"Yes, He died on my second day in school" I said in a sad tone.

"Well he called it upon himself" Tariq said.

"How?" I halted and so did he.

"He was involved in something" he simply said in a tone that spelt finality.

"Heza we should go back now, I do not want you to going back alone" he said.

"I have been out more late than this time, so chill" I said.

"hmm, really?. Well stop it, PHU is dangerous" he said.

"Okay" I mumbled.

His phone began to beep and he picked the call and suddenly his expression turned sore.

"Alright I'll be there in a jiff" he said before hanging up.

"heza you'll have to go alone. But do not talk to any body on your way back, Just walk straight to your Dorm" he said and I nodded.

"Bye" I said while giving him a bone crushing hug, though my left arm was the one holding him.

"Take care" he pecked my forehead before breaking the hug.

We said our goodbyes and then departed ways. Thus, I made my way back to the dorm but I felt like I was being followed so I turned around but I found no one, So i continued walking.

"You like playing with danger don't you?" I heard sufys husky voice from behind me so I turned around to find him staring at me with his hands across his chest.

"What do you mean?" I Asked.

"Tariq" he simply said which shocked me beyond words, how did he know my bothers name.

"How do you know his name?" I tried my best not to sound shocked.

"That's none of your business, but be careful with him" he deadpanned.

"Why?" I asked.

"He is even more dangerous than you think I am, and trust me. He is threat to your life and family, be careful with that boyfriend of yours, or else not just you heart will be broken, but your entire bone and flesh" he said, My heart was accelerating in an abnormal rate and my head felt a little heavy.

What was all this, I'm beginning to think coming to PHU is a great mistake. But what baffles me allot was what I have just heard. But what if sufy was lying, Tariq did tell me about his deceitful ways of life. I need to get answers and I know just who to go to.
