SARA

Staring lazily at the ceiling up ahead, Sara blinked her eyes twice for the umpteenth time that night.

She was trying to force herself to sleep but it wasn’t working at all.

She had turned and tossed tirelessly on the bunk bed she shared with Ariel, and even after some complaints from her best friend, she just didn’t stop.

She couldn’t stop rather, with her mind going haywire and streaks of dried tears still on her face.

Letting out a soft sniffle and whimper, as if she wanted to begin crying again, Sara turned to the left side of the bed, her eyes wandering about as she looked around the dimly lit hostel room.

It wasn’t so late at all, and she and Ariel were the only ones in the room, as they had eaten their dinner albeit hurriedly, and then come back to rest.

Now though, the last thing Sara was doing was having a good rest, and she hated this feeling so much! She tried closing her eyes slowly again, making it droop and at the same time praying that this strategy of hers would

    SARA“I can’t believe you recorded everything Miranda said last night.” Ariel uttered in awe, and Sara just smiled ruefully.“I did record it. I brought out my phone when she was talking, and I put on the sound recorder. Everything she said is in here, and I hope to convince Christian with this proof today.” As she finished speaking, she saw Ariel’s facial expression change from awe and surprise to something indescribable, and her heart clenched.“Don’t you want me to go talk to him?” Sara asked softly, blinking back the tears that gathered at the pool of her eyes and beneath her lashes.These pregnancy hormones! Damn, but they made her want to cry every second, and she just couldn’t hold it back.

    November 16, 2010.Sara sat down in her bedroom, staring at the mirror by her bedside and thinking as she prepared for school, a 16 year old orphan currently at a shelter in the neighborhood of New Orleans.Right from age 6(six) when she lost her mum to cancer, and not knowing who her father was, Sara led a lonely life.No family ever wanted to adopt her, cause they always saw her as the recluse, shy and quiet black kid always sitting at the shelter's auditorium whenever it was adoption day.Not knowing the cause of her quietness, or why she wasn't as bubbly and lively as other kids in the shelter, Sara was all by herself, that even the matrons at the orphanage referred to her as a dull child.Now grown up, Sara knew her time at the shelter was coming to an end, at age 18 it was required of all grown up kids to vacate the pr

    "What are we doing in this store, miss?" Sara asked her friend, already getting impatient, after walking round the city all day in vain looking for jobs, it seemed all the stores, restaurant and bars were unwilling to hire 16 year old girls without a sure guarantor and reasonable resume.She was famished, tired and stressed out from going round all day without any success, she just wanted to go back home to the shelter."Didn't you see the poster sign placed outside , where a job vacancy was advertised?" Ariel asked."If I hear you right, you said job vacancy right, and if I had read the poster correctly, it read job vacancy for just one person, and we don't even match the criteria, and requirements written down....it read and I quote, application for the post of an 18 year old sales boy/girl needed with at least an original high school certificate and recommendable surety that i

    Christian was in a trance, he couldn't believe that he was actually talking to the girl of his dreams, the girl he had already mapped out his future with, he could already imagine their future together, her belly swollen with their kids, who were going to have his eyes and her beautiful caramel doused skin color.'What was wrong with him?' He had never had this animal urge to protect someone or something so strongly as he felt now, the enthralling desire to marry her, put a ring on her cute fingers, mark her as he is, love her till eternity, spoil her with gifts and affection and treat her like a queen.All this was just so foreign and strange to him, this was actually the first time he had thought about a girl like this, to the extent of even thinking of marriage at this young age."Man, you've already left this place, what are you thinking about?" Daniel asked waving at him.

Are you just going to give up after everything you’ve done? Everything we’ve been through together?”Dinah just rolled her eyes, her hands going to her forehead as she heaved out loud in frustration.“I don’t know what to think again Tessa. I mean after all I did, I still don’t have Christian in my grasp. I mean he told me prop and plain that he’s leaving this town.”“To where again?” Tessa asked, and letting out a hiss Dinah replied, “Seattle.

I mean, you seeing these… I don’t even know what to call it now and…”“You keep saying you don’t know what to call them Sara, but I’ll help you madame. They are nudes miss, fucking nudes.

    SARA“Hello Christian.” Sara said weakly, her voice hoarse and despite the weakness she was feeling all over her body, she still managed to grace her face with a small smile.Her eyes roaming through his whole body, she almost let out a whimper, taking a step forwards as she was overcome with so many emotions.She fucking missed him so much! Missed the feel of his arms around her body, the cologne from his shirt, and his husky voice breathing sweet nothings in her ear.Now more than ever, as she stared right at him still smiling, Sara realized just how much she missed having him close to her.Well, now she was here and she would remedy that all to quickly.She continued staring at him, but then seeing how unmoving he was, the stoic look in his face, and the brewing silence that thickened the atmosphere, Sara could only note that something was wrong somewhere.“Hey Christian…” She called out again, this time waving her right hands at him as she asked again, “What’s up?

    TWO DAYS LATER SARAThe first thing Sara saw when she opened her eyes were the blinding white lights in the room, and the pungent smell of medicine and blood that made her want to puke.She lurched, her head almost springing up from the soft bed she was laying on, but she stayed still. Where was she? She began to wonder, her mind spinning as she tried to recall any event, but her head was blank.She tried to say something, but her voice was stuck, her throat sore and it felt like she hadn’t eaten or drank anything in days. Worse, she felt weak, all her body ached and she still had the strong urge to puke her stomach out.“Sara? Sara are you there?” Someone was saying, and blinking twice her vision still blurry, Sara saw two pair of hands waving over her face.“Sara? Can you hear me?” The ever familiar voice said again, and nodding softly Sara finally managed to say, “I can hear you. Ariel?” “Oh Sara… I was so worried.” Ariel said, and instantly Sara felt the bed dip as her best fri

A small sad smile creeping up his lips, his feelings further intensified when he felt the gentle fragile hands of his mother sneaking up his shoulders, as she squeezed lightly.“Don’t you think you are in a haste son? Have you thoroughly thought about everything?”She asked softly.Christian knew she meant no harm with her words, but her words reminded him so much of Sara and quickly he went off.Like a spark lighting up in his head, he blurted out angrily shrugging her hands off his shoulders, “Mother, if this is about Sara, you can just dead the topic. I don’t want to talk about her.”An awkward silence brewing, and the atmosphere becoming tense Mrs Smith finally broke it off, clearing her throat and chuckling almost inaudibly.“Son! I didn’t even want to talk about her? I was just asking some important questions but now that you say it…” She paused obviously gathering what to
