Mary My Student - Season 1 - Episode 43

I turned around and to my shock Nancy was standing behind, me her eyes already red and tears were streaming out of them. I was sure she has seen everything that went on between me and Rita.

” So Wilson, all this while I’ve been waiting, so I have waiting in vain?”
Being totally unprepared for this encounter, I was quickly short of words and excuses.
” Look Nancy it is not like that.”
” It’s like what? I can’t believe you would choose a mere student over me, what does she have that I don’t have? Or is it dark skin? Eh?
All this while I have been keeping my heart open for you, giving out all the signs I could know off, not knowing you have some skeletons in your cupboard.

” Look Nancy, had you made this your attraction known to me since it would have saved you this headache.”
” How would I have made myself known, tell me how? When you were dribbling me like Messi and Ronaldinho, whenever I want to come to your apartment you would have some excuse for me. And funny enough it was today that I decide to tell you everything of how much I want you in my life, I looked for you in your office but I couldn’t find you, only to come here to be entertained by the sight.”
” Nancy I’m sorry. I’m…….”
” I know you would be.” Nancy interrupted. ” But that doesn’t mean a thing to me right now you’ve just ruined my day, you have just broken my heart.”
” So what are you going to do now?” I asked somehow wishing I didn’t ask.

” I am leaving right away. I am leaving the school, I’m handing in my resignation letter tomorrow, I know you love teaching, you add another subject to the list of those your handling.”

I held her hand, ” come on Nancy don’t do something you might regret later. Must every female teacher always leave the school because of me?”

I felt her hand, it was soft and smooth and her perfume was intoxicating though different from Rita’s chamomile perfume.
” well whatever you say I am not going to regret this one. I can’t stand seeing you moving around with the knowledge that you’re not mine, we will always have to leave, do you know how it feels to be rejected? So I am going, if you want me come and look for me. Now leave my hand.”

She snatched her hand away from me and stormed off towards the staff room.
