But was suicide the only action suitable to take? Isaiah could not escape from the dilemma before him, even as Jenny stayed by his side to comfort him. His mind raged on in a hazy storm of thoughts. It seemed to him that the only two paths he could take from away from the situation was to either become truly evil, or kill himself. He was so deep in thought that he had forgotten that he was not by himself but with someone else."Isaiah!" Jenny's voice rang in his head, waking him up from the deep contemplative sleep that he had found himself drowning in."Huh, Jenny," he said, gasping."What are you thinking about?" Jenny asked. "Nothing" he said, "I'm just..."She held his jaw, her fingers lingering on his soft lips. "Do you remember what I said?" She asked. "You tell me anything. I'm here to listen."Isaiah looked her in the eyes. Suddenly her eyes shone like gold once more. And like a thief, or an alchemist, he was drawn to it. Their lips, just like before, were almost grazing on

"Who are you talking to?" Jenny's voice said, making Isaiah flinch a bit."What are you doing here in the boy's dormitories, Jenny?" Isaiah asked, standing up."Oh, I don't think there is any strict rule against that," she said, coming over to sit on the bed, arms brushing his.Isaiah realized then that he only really just assumed all through the time that there was actually a rule prohibiting females from going to the boy's dormitories and vice versa. He smiled sheepishly, one hand at the back of his head. "Oh, I don't think there is," he said. He sat down with her. "So were you just talking to yourself?" She asked. "No, I was on a phone call," he said. "I just got very angry and started talking to myself after the phone call ended, that's all.""Oh. Who?" She asked. "Isaiah became quiet, awkwardly quiet. He did not know if it would be a wise thing to do if he told her. He heaved a quiet sigh. She felt the wind of his nostrils brush up against her shoulders.She held his hand. "Yo

"You sent me a hundred dollars?" The taxi man hollered into the air, definitely happy. "Thank you, thank you." He bowed, almost hitting his head on the window of his car."It's alright, sir," Isaiah said. "It's just a little gift to compensate you for wasting your time. We're really sorry.""Nonsense!" The man cheered heartily. "I should be the one calling you sir now, don't you think? It's alright. Thank you. And I am sorry for yelling at you."The man waved them goodbye. He was probably thinking of taking the entire day off to treat himself to some place nice. Isaiah turned around to face his friends. They stared at him with mouths "What?" He asked."Well, it seems you have a lot of money to throw around, though," Jackson observed."Well, that..." Isaiah found a suitable way to change the topic. "Guys, I need to go inside now. I am in pajamas. I really have to have some bath and freshen up. It's been two days now."Jackson and Luke burst out laughing. "You mean you haven't take

"So which do we go to first?" Jackson asked. "Do we go to the police to report the case first, or do we report to the Chancellor? Also the HOD of your department.""What do we even say to the police?" Jenny asked. "We don't even have proof that he was kidnapped. The only thing we know is that he is missing. I don't know if the Chancellor would be chanced enough to receive our complaint. And I don't think our present HOD Professor Strathmore, would give a rat's ass about Isaiah. He might even be happy about it. The man doesn't like Isaiah.""So what do you now suggest we do, Jenny?" Jackson submitted. "You've said all of this but we do not have a solution yet.""Argh!" Luke gnawed at his own teeth, terribly annoyed that Jenny and Jackson were going to stand there doing nothing but chatter and batter about how to help their friend. He began walking away, with heavy steps on the floor; everytime his feet clashed with the floor, he was a greater distance away from his peers, who he now r

Isaiah's first and last night in the town that time forgot was a bag of troubles. Some hours before the sun was completely eaten by the west side of the far horizon, he had said, "it's getting extremely late. Where do we sleep?"Elena ignored him, throwing a look to a side of the room where she wouldn't see his face."Oh, there's plenty of room in the town," Tanuk said. "We just have to find one for you and Elena to be in.""What?" Isaiah asked sharply. "Yes? I was implying that we find a worthy room for the both of you to be in.""Why? Can't I just have my own place?" Isaiah was greatly aggravated by the prescription. "Why do I have to share it with her?""Isaiah... Lord Isaiah..." Tanuk called out in a more reverent tone, "if you don't stay in the same room, you will give the townspeople a bad image of the both of you. And these people have lived for such a long time in these conditions, all hoping for a time when the prophecy would come to pass and their Lady Elena would be happy
