Chapter 2 Find Her.

Eddie's POV

'Was that really Emily? why doesn't she recognize me? I mean its been four years but that shouldn't make her forget someone she claimed she loved so much, she may have changed in stature but I could still recognize her from miles. Have I changed so much?' I thought.

I was in my hall room walking around as I contemplated about the issue. But no matter what I thought, I wasn't getting anywhere with my questions until I saw Matt passing by the room. When he saw that my door was opened, he came back just as I was about calling him.

He looked from my head to toes and queried,

"Hey what's up? you look pressured, this school will kill you before you know it. Don't think too much about it after all you are going to leave this school behind in a weeks time. "

"It's not the school man, it's about something else. " I quipped i n irritated.

"Well what's it then? I don't know you for women problems, they've never been your problem. Except that particular one you've been searching for. " he urged.

"You are right except for the one I had being looking for. And she is the reason for my troubled heart now. " I confessed.

"I know you will find her one day, that's if you are meant to be. " he affirmed.

"I've found her and that too right here on campus. She has been right under my nose and I didn't know. And she doesn't recognize me now, what's more painful than this?" I questioned.

He looked at me with his mouth gaped but suddenly shook his head and said,

"Maybe you've gotten the wrong person, she might not be the one you think she is. Are you having day dreams about her now?"

"No I'm not wrong, she answered to the name I called her. And she hasn't changed that much you know?" I insisted.

"Okay then let's go and find her and introduce yourself properly if she still denies she knows you then we will know what to do next. Or you can pretend you were mistaken before and let it flow. Maybe you will find out about the reason for her denial then. " he countered.

'Okay let it flow, but what if she doesn't want to see me anymore? what if she was pretending so she can escape once again? But it was now or never, what if I don't see her anymore? I've got to take the chance. ' I thought.

"Let's go find the love of my life. " I said boldly.

"How cheeky, the love of your life indeed. I can't wait to meet this woman. " he ranted.

We got out of the room in search of her and made our way to her department. Because we believed since she was submitting her work, we would find her there.

We got to the department and we were told they had just left and that we should check the faculty head office and that maybe we would find them there.

The world around me became smaller and my heart beat accelerated. I felt like I had ran a ten kilometers race in a few minutes and every second that passed by felt like eternity and that I was loosing her through it.
