Forbidden Taste

Looking around the room, she sighed. All she wanted was to sleep but her own room was preoccupied by her friends."What are you all doing here?" She said annoyingly. The shift she had was long enough and now she was not in a mood for another drama."Rose don't be a mood killer and sit, we have some hot gossip to tell you." One of the girls replied, taking a sip of the vanilla frappuccino she was holding. Rosella threw her bag on the couch and plopped herself down next to Mary."So this hot senior asked me out." Mary whispered out making the other girls shriek out loud in happiness. "Calm down, bitches." Mary spoke as she shyly looked away, avoiding their gazes.Rosella wasn't a bit shocked. She knew there was something going on in between them. The glances they used to give each other after exiting the classes. The way he used to bump her into shoulder intentionally and then say sorry.Rosella softly smiled at her bestfriend."Rose, why aren't you saying something? Ain't you shocked t

The next day Rosella woke up with a headache.Her head was painfully pounded. It felt as if she had smashed her head in a wall, vigorously.Getting up from the bed, she went towards her bathroom and did her morning routine.Dante had insisted to drop Linda, Selena and Rosella to there respective dorms.Mary went back with Jake.Taking a long hot shower, she wore her favorite grey sweatshirt pairing it with a dark blue denim shorts since it was very hot outside as starting summers were always hot on days and breezier at night.Wearing a nude look on her face with a bit of mascara, she added a plum shade lip color to her lips with that her makeup look was complete. Tying her hair in a loose bun, she took her backpack and stalked towards the door.Arriving at the university, she saw many people eying her. She had never worn shorts but today she felt like wearing it.“Rose!” Mary yelled, making Rosella turn around. “Damn girl you look nice.” She winked at her. Rose blushed. “Thanks.” She

‘The acer finally failed and will repeat her half credit hours.’The hot new topic of the university. News spreaded like fire in every department and corner.She was the main gossip now.People bickered about her in every possible way.After the class with Dr.Serafino, she immediately had dashed out to her dorm, where she cried over the paper and her university life.He had made sure that she’ll repeat half of her subjects even though she had aced them all with the highest grades with difficulty since sometimes there were people who tried to compete with her.The next day, she had arrived in a black skirt and a white tuck in collared t-shirt. The students slightly snickered at her.She had become the laughing stock.“Took her long enough to fail.” One of the girls smirked who was busy sipping her cold brew. “Yeah, she totally deserved it, since she is such a stuck up bitch.” Another replied with a nod. “True! In high school she used to degrade people and fire bitchy comments.” They a

RosellaI starred in the midst of the air. My thoughts running a marathon.After the conversation, Dr. Serafino declared that I wasn’t a scholarship student anymore, more or less he basically kicked me out.My inhaler rested within my hand as I tried to calm my breaths down. My heart rapidly thumped against my chest and my breaths shortened by each passing second, the inhaler didn’t help my asthma right now.My parents would be so disappointed in me.Running a hand through my hair, I sighed. They would feel so sad.Letting a scream out, I finally plopped myself on the comfortable bed. Closing my eyes, I listened to the silence, my mind drifted back to him. He made my insides flip and I couldn’t understand why I felt that way. When his had eyes met mine in the class, it felt as if the world had stopped.It was just me and him.Why am I even thinking about him?Soon my thoughts were cut short when I heard my phone vibrate against my bed. Receiving the call without glancing at the number

Rosella“Stella that should be on the top not on the right!”I looked in the direction of the voices. Papa chuckled. “Zoe, she is here.” He yelled out, grasping the attention of mama and Stella. They immediately dashed out of the kitchen towards the living room where we were.“Oh my gosh, Rosella darling.” Mama came towards me as she crushed her body onto mine. “I’ve missed you so m..much.” Her voice cracked in the end. I knew she was crying. Hugging her back tightly I replied, “I’m back mama."Detaching herself, she took a hold of my face, “You’ve grown so thin, baby don't you eat properly?” She asked me and I gulped. I hesitantly nodded. I wasn’t gonna upset her. I wasn’t gonna tell her that the anorexia had came back to eat me up. But I had to stay strong.Pecking my forehead, she gave me a tight hug once again.“Rose, how have you been?” My gaze shifted to the owners voice and I stilled.There she stood.She looked more beautiful than before.“Stella.. I’m good, you?” I spoke, wal
