CHAPTER FIVE: THE HELP I NEEDED
Next day Ken waited for Yolie at the park where she'd said she'd meet him.
Few minutes later she was there holding a bandana. "Uh, Yolie, what's that for?" he blinked pointing at the bandana. "I wanna bring you to some place." She answered with a mischievous smile. "You planned this all along didn't you?" Ken scolded. Yolie nodded with the 'okay-you-caught-me' look, she snickered.
Ken sighed and bought in "Where you gonna take me this time?" Yolie just smiled and blind folded him. 'Geez he's gotten taller' Yolie thought to herself.
After tying it, she grabbed his hand and they both rode on a taxi. Ken got anxious, he had no idea where they were going-no idea. After about 10 minutes, they got off. "Yolie, could I take it off now?" he said anxiously. Yolie took it off, Ken blinked hard. He took his glasses out of his coat and put them on.
In front of him was an old building. He examined it carefully. Moments later, his face brightened up "The old college." "YUP!" she exclaimed. "Wanna go in, no one's been here for a while. At least that's what they said." "Sure." Ken replied in astonishment.
They both entered the worn-out building. Ken was smiling, more memories fluttered in his head and so did Yolie.
Both went to the same college, obviously, they took different courses.
The two parted for a while, Ken opened a door to his physics class. He smiled. Glancing towards his own seat, he saw a child on the teacher's platform. He blinked and the child disappeared. He thought he was hallucinating; he shook it off.
Ken went out of the room and towards the next door, Yolie headed for the same way. Ken giggled when he saw Yolie groan "Trigonometry.yuck!" Ken opened the door and went inside; he walked towards a specific desk and smiled. Yolie just stood at the doorway giving Ken space to recall the 'happy moments'. Ken sat on the desk, looked towards the left, and silently mumbled.
Yolie pushed her glasses to the bridge of her nose and leaned against the doorway. Ken took off his glasses and wiped off a tear, he put them back on, sighed, and stood up. He turned towards Yolie "let's go." he exclaimed. Yolie nodded.
Later they left the building both smiling with content. Yolie was most especially happy; she felt that she had done something good for her friend. "You okay now?" Yolie asked as they walked along the sidewalk, "I'm feeling quite good actually, thanks." "My pleasure."
"What are you going to do now?" Ken smiled and replied, "I'm going to mend my past." And he turned to Yolie. She smiled. "Well, I've got to go; glad to know that I helped." "Glad, that you helped too."
Yolie hugged him saying goodbye. She let go of her grip, still holding his shoulders, smiled at him staring up at those raven colored eyes of his. She completely let go and walked off.
Ken walked; suddenly he remembered to ask her something. "Yo, Yolie!" He called out as he turned.she wasn't there. 'Impossible' he thought to himself they were only a few strides apart.
A chill crawled through Ken's back. He shook his head, as he was shocked and bewildered. Maybe his emotions got to him. Even if it was a hallucination, it was a damn good one. Now he knew what to do.
