In the afternoon, Savannah sat outside the house while her parents were inside the house. Savannah sat on the pavement thinking about something that seemed unclear to her as she put on a blank expression.
Neville and Jamie were just coming from school and they noticed Savannah was lost in thoughts so they walked up to her short fence.
Savannah!, Neville called out and she flinched as she was shocked to suddenly hear her name.
A penny for your thought?, Neville asked Savannah who was still recovering from the sudden call of her name.
Oh, what's up guys?, Savannah asked without enthusiasm.
Fine, but you seemed to be lost in thoughts. If you won't mind, may I ask you what you were thinking about?, Jamie asked like a gentleman as he stared at Savannah who looked stressed.
Savannah sighed, I'm finding it hard to think of an excellent academic tutor, she said in a calm tone.
If that's what you're worried about, you can meet Ryan's mum, she's a genius when it comes to tutoring people, Jamie said and Savannah gently stood up.
I should better go now, Savannah said as she turned to leave. How did you twist your ankle?, Neville asked concerned.
Oh, this?, she asked pointing to her leg then she continued. It's just a result from a prank that went wrong, so don't worry, I'll be fine in a few weeks, Savannah said smiling.
That must hurt, Jamie said looking at Savannah's twisted ankle like the pain was affecting him too.
Well, it doesn't hurt that much, she said showcasing her ankle to them. Anyways, bye, see you later, she said and waved them goodbye as she entered the house.
Savannah arrived at the Enzo's house, the tallest building in that neighborhood and she stared at the building for minutes mainly because she was thinking of what to say if she eventually meets Ryan's mum. She swallowed hard and rung the doorbell.
I am coming, a voice from inside the house said and few seconds later the door opened. Savannah blinked, staring at the woman's stomach which was so huge that you can see the baby bump even if it was covered with her gown.
What?, haven't you seen a pregnant woman before?, Mrs Enzo asked jokingly.
No, I have but are you really Ryan's mum?, Savannah asked.
Ryan Enzo is my son and since I've clarified that, what can I do for you?, Mrs Enzo asked.
I'm sorry, I didn't know you were heavily pregnant and I won't want to bother you, she said and turned to leave.
Wait!, Mrs Enzo exclaimed and Savannah stopped in her tracks. Just because I am heavily pregnant doesn't mean I can't help you, she said and Savannah walked up to her.
Ma'am, since you said you can help me, can you be my academic tutor?, she asked politely. Of course and I will tutor you for free, she said smiling.
Wow, you're really a nice person, she said gladly.
You can enter, Mrs Enzo said and Savannah entered. Savannah limped after Mrs Enzo as she took Savannah to her library. Have a sit, Mrs Enzo said to Savannah whose eyes was busy scanning the whole room and Savannah sat down. Mrs Enzo went to a book shelf and was bringing tons of textbooks but when Savannah saw this, she went to help her with the textbooks. They dropped the textbooks on the table and Savannah helped Mrs Enzo sit while she sat beside Mrs Enzo. What's your name?, Mrs Enzo asked.
My name is Savannah Will, Savannah replied.
So Savannah, we will be starting with Mathematics but before we start I have to tell you some things you need to know about being a straight A's student. First of all, you will read the next topic you have before your teacher teaches you. Secondly, you must read on your own after school, ask questions, make reading your hobby and the moment you find it fun, trust me you will top the class, Mrs Enzo said all this which somehow amazed Savannah.
With all these being said, will you make me proud by becoming a straight A's student in your class?, Savannah took inhaled and exhaled, yes, Mrs Enzo, I'll make you proud by becoming a straight A's student in my class, Savannah said confidently and Mrs Enzo smiled.
