Chapter 50 James

• I take a look at Zuzuki one last time before I get on the plane heading to Houston. Just as I take a glimpse at the passengers, I suddenly come in contact with a familiar face, Annie. I quickly slide into my seat so she doesn't see me. We've both said all that's there to say. Most of them we can't take back. I did notice her bandaged finger but I doubt she would have let me examine it. I wanted to know what happened but that didn't seem feasible because she can't even stand my presence for a second. One could easily tell the moment she saw me after she opened the door.
• I began to ponder on what is next for me. I don't want to just get to Houston and start thinking of what to do and not to do. I don't think I can go back to working for Mr McCauley. I'll resign and wait for the admission list to be out. Once the admission list comes out in two weeks, I would know my fate. If I don't make the list, I would take up the job offer I was given and re-apply to the school. It's a good thing that they are offering a seventy-five per cent scholarship. That way, I can pay the rest and still have enough for mother, myself and May.
• I close my eyes and drift into sleep.
