The last lesson of the day came up and I was planning on telling them about the principle after school. Something in me ached as I felt my instincts go haywire. Something was wrong. Really wrong.
A storm was brewing and the clouds darkened. This was pretty normal as it was still the rainy season but the darkness was noticeably early today. I stared out the window, the tugging feeling not leaving me to rest with my thoughts.
"May I use the restroom?" I abruptly spoke while raising my hand. The teacher lifted his nose up from his book, peering at me before nodding.
I stood up in a hurry, not knowing why I felt such urgency. I looked out of the windows in the hall to see the darkness had fully sucked out any light. The clouds rumbled and blared. I reached the bathrooms but before I could enter the mens, Malia stumbled out of the womens. She was pale, struggling to hold open the door for herself.
"Malia?!" I gasped, as she fell onto me.
