I was taken aback by what he said and immediately I petitioned my resignation letter, that was just me and no one was changing that. Jimmy scoffed at my reply on not wanting to stay. He didn't believe my words, especially knowing that I needed the cash desperately. He and the manager went on explaining what this job entails. Sincerely, all that I got to hear was me acting as a spy with a sidekick but who? I sat patiently once more waiting to see who was going to be under me at least, I am boss over someone which gave me pride. I frowned at jimmy for lying to me and even living under my apartment, well, why should I get angry? Likewise, I never ask what job my neighbor ventures in. There he was coming out through the door, oh my I must say, I fell at the sight of my sidekick, he was just the beautiful man I would describe, tall, handsome, well-built, charming eyes. As a boss, I had to shove such thoughts and focus on what the ordeal was; being an agent and forsake this new job again… t

The night seemed to have fallen fast for the day and the atmosphere was calm unlike other days, or perhaps because it rained. Jessica waved me a goodbye from my balcony. She had helped me packaged my luggage and prepare me for the night, not forgetting to add my favorite meal since it would take a month to return, that's if ever coming back here. I saw Isabelle wiping her tears, which was pretence. She was always crying on any occasion, and Jimmy termed her"queen of tears". I had no clue of what this job entails, since these women claimed it was in line with being a detective. Granny walked up to, since her apartment was the first floor. She held my hand and smiled."Don't change who you're for someone else…just stay true to yourself" she whispered."This life would teach you so many things but you could be a weapon or a drug, your attitude would attract failure or success…" She furthered. I wasn't interested in her quotes since she always gave advice to everyone who was living in thi

I packed my bags ready to leave the next day, I was certainly avoiding someone. I packed my hair high up and quickly opened my door, I was startled by who stood outside. It was Jessica who was curious. This woman, wouldn't she leave me in peace. Soon, Mirabelle joined her. It was like though they were here to arrest me. They shocked me by looking their best today, and Jessica even had make-up on."Where are you off to?" Jessica asked and I sighed. So, that definitely means they are unaware I was packing out one by one, or else they would have convinced me to stay."Well vacation" I replied and pushed my way through."What if they accept?" Mirabelle wailed and I turned towards her."Accept what?". The two women kept quiet and in no time, I heard a car grunt. Immediately, my neighbors began trooping out of their apartment and each stood at their various balcony to watch what was happening. I also came closer to the balcony but downstairs. We all could see a fleet of cars and everyone wo

The two women opened their mouth wide as they listened to the story I told them. It was like a thriller and I kept them in suspense because I was bad at saying everything."Did you notice any changes in your behavior?" Jessica questioned. The detective is at work now."Nope? Kind of? Absolutely not sure… I don't even have time for myself, so why should I study myself?" I replied rhetorically."Leave everything to us, dear, we are just here to help" Jessica assured and Mirabelle nodded with affirmation."How's Thelma?" I asked with concern and mirabelle ticked her tongue."She's fine… didn't you hear what happened at their school?" Mirabelle furthered with an indifference look at me."No, besides, I resigned before that old would sack me"."There was a fire outbreak two days ago after the chaos you caused" Jessica announced, and I stood up. So, I wasn't imagining?"Was any kid hurt?"."No it was a public holiday, for them, only some staff members were affected" Mirabelle buttress while

"I love to roll it!""Roll it!""Could these women just shut up!" I wailed inside. They're just making noise with their voices. I guess they might have noticed I felt lonely and that's why they stood by my door trying to make me come out, but it wouldn't work."Oh, this hot dog is great! Have a taste Mirabelle darling…guess someone is missing…"."Bang!!!" I opened my door wildly, interrupting the lines, and they gazed at me mischievously."Alright, you guys won!" I mellowed, gesticulating my hands at them."How are you, dear?" Jessica questioned walking inside without my permission? This was getting out of hand already."The hot dog?" I asked too and Mirabelle walked to inside. With the way they acted, it seemed they were up to something."What's up?" I pressed on as they sat on my cushion. Jessica cleared her throat while Mirabelle clenched her teeth together."We just want to check on you, right?" She began while Mirabelle stared at her with uncertainty. Something was definitely wro

Mia"I don't know, maybe because I'm your prince charming" he flirts and a tingle runs in my skin.I really needed to rest. He is more than a prince charming and I don't mind his motive.I was becoming emotional and the memory of a boy singing in the woods cross my mind.I was running closer to him, trying to hide from the wolves that chase me, trying to escape the shadows that taunt me."Find her... she's a curse"I shook on Cole's back while panting heavily and I closed my eyes."Are you alright Cinderella?""Yes" I muffled beckoning on him to keep me down, but he didn't. Cole reached the crosswalk a distance away from the school vicinity and boarded a cab for me.Once he placed me gently inside in passenger's seat, he paid the driver and popped his head through the window to look at me.He looked concerned and his face, etch with a deep abiding interest."So...you won't be able to make it for tonight right?" He questioned, as he used his fingers to insert my stranded hair behind m

This is the story of how I murdered miles, and I don't regret it.The sky was blue...no red.The atmosphere was thick and foggy with loathe lingering in the air.I'm taller than expected and in my hand was his heart, pumping with blood trickling and decorating my hand with pleasure.I look down at his stunning...no soulless body as he crawls to beg me for his life.I exhaled softly, snapping out of my queer imaginations and hitting the mop in my hand hard on the tanned floor like I was seeing his face."Miles!" I yelled, vibrating with fury to an extent the mop in my hand broke in two places.Earlier, after being caught with the sex toys he sent me to get from someone, I was assigned to clean the basketball court.Not alone though but with two other girls. It's better than detention and for my act, a greater punishment was meant to be given to me which makes it more weird.Oh the humiliation and I had to hide my face, awaiting to be the talk of the day.Somehow, my case died down in c

I fluttered my lashes and then threw my gaze at him. His eyes were peering into mine as my panic was replaced by loathe for him.He wrote that! Why? He just made me go around the school like a mad wolf."How dare you!" I yelled now gaining the strength to talk back. He infuriates me the more.How did he get to place that in my locker? That's trespassing.He raised a brow at me and then grimanced."Who do you think you are to raise your voice at me? Do you know who I am?""A student just like me!" I brawl folding my fists and desiring to punch that face of his.He scoffed unbelievably at me, raising a hand as though to hit me but I stuttered backward and he dropped his hand.We were glaring at each other with that hate in us. He didn't even explain himself, like I expected.And we were just quiet, like the words were gone and only our eyes expressed our contempt.It's still a relief, it wasn't the person I expected that dropped that note."You little brat, I have an errand for you" he

His warm expression didn't change and his reply was;"Just promise you won't run away Cinderella"With the way he stared, I couldn't feel my lungs.He kept coming closer and closed up the space between us."When do I get to sign the contract?"I part my lips slightly as his breath fan my face. Right now, I'm lost."W-well..."I threw a finger to the back, trying so hard to roll out the word 'in class' but it's just not coming out.Cole peeped through my shoulder and smirked."In class?""Yes!" I shouted staggering backward and my palm flew to my mouth.I keep embarrassing myself in his presence.He was about to say something else but I began a race, I was sure any more seconds with him would make me collapse.I just have to be prepared to meet him again because later this noon, we the juniors would be having a pairing game with our seniors.I let a mischievous grin as it turns out I'd be Cole's partner too. He'd see this as fate.All I had to do was cheat and bribe a scribe to pair me

MiaI couldn't read the expression on his face or what exactly he was doing.I buried my face in the crook of miles neck as he slowly rose up with me. I was literally embracing him to hide my face from Cole."I can't stop them from coming to me" miles proudly declares and I felt like biting him."Com'on man, you don't get to have all the fun alone" Cole teased and i heard his footsteps draw closer to me.I widened my eyes with disbelief and my heart syncs with miles. I was standing on his feet.Miles squeezes me in his arms and my grip around his neck stiffens, my mind is void of thoughts.Something electrifying lights up inside of me as his breath poured on my back. My heart rate increased.I could feel every ounce of him, his touch, his fragrance that intimidating broad chest of his."Hey step back Cole, she's sensitive" miles pointed out like he was scolding Cole while moving with me in that position and I had no idea where we were going."Whatever, but why are you with a notebook?

MiaIt's dawn and I crawled out of my closet with dark circles around my eyelids.I arranged my books needed for studies and freshen up. I couldn't wait to run out of the house after the trauma last night and the voices in my head that comes in every night too.It's another day to stalk Cole, as he is the only one that can take my mind off the thought that someone was after me.I arrived at school late, definitely all my money was taken away after the break-in, incident.Nicole would be sending me money to buy supplements just so Cole's injury would heal fast.I heaved a sigh immediately I got to my desk in the classroom. I was exhausted from the long walk to the academy. Everyone had a neutral look at me, while some gossips which is a normal norm here.All that rang in my mind is how to relocate to another apartment more safer before he comes again.I didn't pay attention to anyone and for the first time, i'd be sitting at the back of the classroom which obviously looks queer.I sa

The manager apologized for the rude behavior of Kelvin. He must have noticed she heard their conversation with the way she stood like a dead being struggling for air. The manager also left her besides, he didn't know to begin motivational words because even he lacks the motivations. Anastasia cleaned her tears that dripped off her face when she heard the host saying,“And now, the star of our show… The course, why we all are gathered to celebrate this night party…”. His words flew pass her ears. Who was she going to dance with? Bodie was already wrapping up to leave, he just came over to see his co-star Kelvin perform, but it seems it wasn't going as planned, besides he had his motives also. He got out of the building and was about to open his car when someone called out to him. It was Anastasia, and she was walking in a haste to meet him. He groaned and opened the car, but she closed it back.“Dance with me…for a million dollars” she tabled, and he scoffed. What does she think of hi

“Introducing the chandelier girls!” The host exclaimed, and there was an uproar in the hall, applauding the girls as they marched in. Mrs Williams gestured to her husband that she needed to see Anastasia at the backstage, and he gave her the go ahead while he chatted with his friends on the high table. Miss Vera didn't know where the taxi driver had gone to. The theater was an enormous building, and it was tough to find someone you just had a glimpse at. In her thoughts, she bumped into someone else again.“What now!” She yelled, almost fighting with the being but controlled herself, she was in search of the taxi driver not this being who kept staring at her passionately.“Finally, I get to see to you in human form” he said happily, trying to hug her. She stared at him confused, what a weirdo this person was. She walked pass him, but he obstructed her path.“Marry me please, and I would make you happy in my kingdom!” He furthered holding her wrist, “Let go of me mad man! Who are you!

By the time miss Vera was done with the kitchen assistance, it was already late and Anastasia must have fallen asleep. If only Rachel didn't stop by her way. Perhaps tomorrow would be a better day to talk to her first thing in the morning.It was already dawn and the sound of Christmas rang everywhere as people around the city celebrated an auspicious day. Anastasia must be the happiest because today, she was performing live with her crush Kelvin at last. She jumped up from the bed and smiled at herself in the mirror. Anastasia glanced at her skin, it was back to normal, all thanks to the sorcerer who gave her an ailment to apply on her skin. She just hopes nothing goes wrong this time. Anastasia had already posted on her status that she would be the star of the biggest event in the city of Visalia, California. In a hast, she walked to her window and opened it. It was snowing outside and the cool breeze brushed through her face. She giggled and closed back the window.“Spark, this is

Miss Vera yelled out Anastasia's name but couldn't see a trace of her, and besides she was less concern now about the earth trembling since she had waited for the earth to break open and nothing of such happened. Two creatures were behind miss Vera whispering to themselves, although she couldn't hear them but could feel something like air around her neck which tickled her. The first wailed,“Didn't we frightened her enough?”. The second blinked and brought out its eyes sockets, it was a skeleton.“No! We can't let a human get to that tomb again” the second panicked.“Then try harder to scare her off, trembling the earth isn't just enough, fool!” The first retorts and miss Vera turned Swiftly, but she didn't see anyone. She studied the place with her eyes as she realized that the earth wasn't trembling again. It was just back to normal.“Oh goodness, it's good she can't see us…”“I wish she could… I think I'm in love Simon and my heart is shaking” the first posed blushing.“But you don'

"child you risked it all when you accepted her offer" the socerer blasted as he poured two different colours of potions in a huge pot which puffed up a thick smoke. Her parents looked at anastasia who had narrated her experience with the old witch to them."Ain't there no way to resolve this issue.""They are after her and the great witch seeks revenge... the night she stepped into that forest was the night the witch soughted a prey which was any first human that crossed her path" he explained as they stared at him confused. He wasn't providing solutions but rather beating around the bush. "Old man could you just profane a defined solution?" Mr Williams asked worried. The old man looked at the three before him and laughed.Anastasia was alone now on the bed. She had to return the marble to the witch alone meaning that she was going back the camp!. She held a gentle knock on her door. When she opened it, it was miss vera who gave her a letter."Oh my Kelvin! Finally replied my message

It was late in the night and the students were already sitted in a large hall waiting to watch Bodie perform on stage. Anastasia couldn't participate since she was hospitalized. Her ward was surrounded with flowers sent from home. Her parents had requested for her return the next day but she refused, Afterall, the camp would end in two days time. Thanks to her team who realized she wasn't coming out of the house and they couldn't hear voice even when the door was wide and opened and they quickly reported to their instructor. When they arrived, the door was already locked and the key couldn't be found. Bodie had to break down the door with his arm along side Paul, Zac and Julius. The door which looked small suddenly began mighty and strong. Anastasia couldn't explain what she saw but only wrote it down in her diary since even venessa didn't believe her, Venessa sat by her side. It was the first time anyone rescued her except her father. She loved such moments when friends visited her a
