When I entered school, I was quite early. No one else was in class so I decided to go to the library. I sat down and began to read the book I was reading yesterday.
It was Peter Pan and I was so engrossed in it, my love for magical stories knows no bounds.
I checked my watch and guessed that Loretta should be in school. I decided to go and check first. When I entered class, few students were already there. I saw Loretta's bag and I went back to the library to get mine.
From the entrance, I could see that some students were in already. I didn't look at them, I just took my bag and headed out of the large room.
Few steps from the table where I was reading, I decided to bring out my freedom card from the book I read. I needed to leave the school to get Daniel's bis
______________________________________________________________________ đź’śDanielđź’™I'm very fast to anger. I've got the worst temper and everyone always criticize me of it. Except for my dad who I took it from, and my manager who says it's good for me to be able to charge at my opponent.Anyway, little things make me angry. But usually I get amused when I see Agnes threatening girls because of me. I find it as entertainment, seeing her fight so much for something she can never get. I should have known that she was going to come after Unugwa.I can't explain the anger I felt when I saw her confronted by Agnes. Agnes has no right to do that, she's not my friend, she's not even anything to me. I don't even see her as a girl that has a crush on me.What made me angry was that she said, I Daniel Alberto is hers. Gosh!I didn't hear muc
___________________________________________________________________________ đź’śUnugwađź’™Me: you're gonna answer me or not?He smirkedDaniel : I have a match this Saturday. Care to come?Me: no. I hate boxingDaniel : why?Me: it's bloodyHe crackedDaniel : it depends on the type of boxing. Mine isn't bloody yetMe: I'm still not comingDaniel : please. If you're there, I'll definitely winMe: when did I become your good luck fairyDaniel : that's not what I mean.Me: whatever. I'm still not coming. Besides Saturday is the day I spend most time with my friendsDaniel :the Loretta girl?Me: uhm no. I mean my friends in the StatesDa
______________________________________________________________________ đź’šUnugwađź’™I slept for about two hours after I showered. I remember we came back home by 2pm and now it's 4:30pm.I rolled over on my large bed and looked into the ceiling. Then I remembered my leg, I sat up and looked it over. The pain has reduced.I yawned and got down from bed. I still couldn't walk properly. I limped downstairs and met mom drawing Anibe's ear.Mom: what did I say?She twisted his ear and he hopped up and down yellingMom: I said what did I say?Anibe: that I should remove this earring before you close your eyes and reopen themMom: goodShe left his ear and he covered it and sat downMom: stupid boy. He wants his father to turn this house upside down&
______________________________________________________________________ đź’›Unugwađź’™I watched as his car drove out of the street. My hands were fiddled around each other and was partly raised up, just in front of my tummy.I was wearing a yellow singlet and a short black skirt. The stupid brother of mine came back with a grinAnibe: she agreed to go on a date with me after she realized I lived hereHe pointed to our house which was the biggest in the neighborhoodMe: stop asking random girls outAnibe: she's not random. We attend the same universityMe: whateverAnibe: so you wanna keep strolling? Or we should get back inside?Me: let's keep strollingI tucked my hand under his arm and we walked forward. My ankle was really better.. Tomorrow is alre
______________________________________________________________________ đź’š Daniel đź’›I raised my eyebrows when Loretta suddenly pulled Unugwa away.CrazyI sat still, tapping my fingers on my thigh. Her elder brother came into the small living room where I wasElder brother : hey... Daniel right?I noddedElder brother : I'm Anibe. You can call me Anie... Or NibehHe was smiling and I began to wonder why because I felt the smile had a different meaningMe: it's nice to meet you sirHe chuckledAnibe: you really don't have to add that sir. I might be your age mateI raised my brow. He chuckled again and left.I smiled a little. I really like their accent. Like Americans. I und
______________________________________________________________________ đź’šUnugwa đź’›I got dressed for school and strolled out of my room. I entered the dinning and met grandma and dad eating. I greeted them and joined the breakfast.Last night was so fun. Grandma kept us lively. Even dad joined in and chipped in stories about his childhood.I had the opportunity of telling dad about Daniel and his dad's company. He agreed to give them a trial. He also said he was going to partner with two other companies here in Cebu. I was so happy, I tried to call Daniel but his number wasn't connectingI finished breakfast and hurried off to school. I was hoping to see Daniel but I didn't. I didn't see Loretta either.I sat in class and looked through my books. I kept looking to see if my friends would come but they didn't
đź’š Unugwa đź’›I froze when he brought it to my mouth. I thought he was gonna eat it.Andy: open upMy eyes widened. He's going to feed me? What brought that idea? Should I open up? Or should I shove it back to him?As if he heard my thoughts, he chuckled and took the spoon to his mouth instead. My heart came down, at the same time it felt sad. I wanted to take itAndy: banana flavor? WowHe took another spoon and I smiledMe: its my favoriteHe smiled and took another spoonAndy: banana or banana flavorMe: I love bothThe shop owner came to our tableSO: I see he's consuming what he did not orderI chuckledAndy: Uncle, I never knew banana flavor was this tasty&n
đź’šDanielđź’śMe: why??Dad: it was the deal. Wasn't it? That if you succeed, I'll send you to the USA to pursue your career. I only added that gym to show my appreciationI looked down at the keysMe: thanks dadDad: you don't look excited. Why?Me: it's nothing. Just tired...I faked a smileHe nodded and left the room. I heaved a long deep sigh as I stared at the keys.đź’šAndyđź’śAt school the next day, we were given teammates for an assignment.My heart sank when Daniel was Ugwa's teammate. I didn't know why I felt that way, it really hurt meLorette : heyI looked at herMe: where is your friend? I wanna see herLoretta: ClaireMe: UgwaLoretta: with Daniel...
UnugwaMe: I can't believe it. It's really youHe squeezed my hands and chuckledDaniel: I guess it isMe: you've changed. You're just... Different nowDaniel: a lot has changed Unugwa. My mom's death changed me in so many waysMe: I'm glad it did. And I'm glad you also survivedDaniel : I already apologized to Andy, but I haven't apologized to you. Unugwa, I'm sorry for my character. I was selfish, greedy and full of hatred. I'm sorry I hit you. I'm sorry I wanted to hurt Andy. I'm sorry about my father's deeds. Please forgive meI felt so emotional because his eyes were really apologizing. It was sincereMe: Daniel, I forgive you. I can't hold a grudge against youIt was when he released my hands and wiped my tears that I knew I was crying. I don'
UgwaMe: what?Anibe: Unugwa let's goMe: leave me alone!Nurse: I'm sorry but we would have to leave the premisesShe tried to wheel me away but I began to struggleMe: I want to see Daniel! I came here to see Daniel! I have to see him!The doctor was shaking his head before he left.Me: please let me see DanielI didn't know that I was already crying. Tears were falling freely like my face was a waterfall.Anibe: Unugwa stop creating a scene. Let's get out of here. Now!He began to wheel me away despite my struggles and screams. I looked back and saw that a stretcher was being wheeled into the room.I kept screaming Daniel because I couldn't accept that he was goneAnibeAs
💙💜Eden💜💙I stared at my computer blankly as if I couldn't understand what I was seeing. It was an email from one of my agents at Interpol (international police). Slowly, realization hit me. Mr Achimugu had called foreign forces on me with strong evidence. And if I don't do something fast, I'll be behind barsAlso, Daniel had returned Chubi. How stupid of the men who were asked to monitor him.I groaned and banged my fist on my office desk.I don't have any strong connections internationally to be able to bail me out. I know I can't get away with this. I need help but first I need to deal with Daniel💙💜Ugwa💜💙I watched as Andy ate the food Daniel brought. He was eating like his whole life depended on it. I smiled at him, at least he's looking better than last night. As for me, I'm in pain. My face were I was struck with a chain is so sore that I ca
UgwaI woke up to the sound of rain on the roof. I was feeling so cold and the freeze from the floor was entering my bones because I was lying down on the floor.I heaved a deep sigh and sat up, hugged my legs and sighed again.I began to worry about my family, my mom most especially. I'm quite sure they wouldn't tell her about me being missing. It would worsen her condition.I looked at the door and noticed there was a slight opening. I stood up and walked to it, the door was opened.I gasped and covered my mouth.It was not closed... For real.Plenty things ran through my mind. I thought of escape and I was bent on doing it.I went back and took the black scarf that the man wearing a mask gave me. I covered my head and hid myself in it. I gently crept out of the room and closed the door gently so no one would
đź’šDanielđź’śI returned home late after spending hours at a restaurant. I was about to enter my room when my dad cleared his throat. I looked back at himDad: and where are you from?Me: and when did you start caring about my whereabouts?Dad: since the minute you ratted me out to RebecaMe: I don't get youDad: Daniel, you're playing with fire and you'll get burntMy heart sank.Me: I still don't getDad: you had the guts to tell your stupid mother!Me: how did you know?He smirkedDad: I have men everywhere. Now you'll be followed every minute. Because you're trying to get compromisedHe walked away and I exhaled sadly. How did I get into this family in the first place?I entered my room and laid on the be
UnugwaI placed my hand on my hot forehead. Andy has been declared missing, it's been almost 24 hours and no one has heard from him. His dad even contacted Goodwill but no positive result.My mom has woken up thankfully but she's really sad, really really sad.Anibe: hey, dad said we're leavingI looked back and saw him wearing a hoodie. It's really cold tonight or is it the situation in ground that made everywhere chillyI breathed out and sighed deeplyAnibe: you're worrying too much. I mean I expected you to worry but not this muchMe: I'm scared. Those guys wanted to kill him before, something tells me they didn't kidnap him. But they took him to finish the jobAnibe: gosh girl! You think too far. Come hereHe pulled me into a hug and I really appreciated that. Made me fe
đź’śAndyđź’›Just as I feared. Mom knows Ugwa's father. When she was describing someone that she claimed Anibe looked like yesterday, I suspected it to be her father.But I just hope it's not what I'm thinking. I hope she just knows him from somewhere else.There's this nightmare I've been having. Even while I was unconscious it kept playing in my head.That Daniel hit me with his car and another scene, he shot me dead. I don't know why I feel like something is just not right.With everything that's going on, I feel insecure. I know I'm supposed to be mature and not freak out but I've got this problem with my mental health. I get panic attacks a lot. That's most of the reason I don't like getting into trouble with anyone. I don't talk too much and I don't fight because my heart can't take the tension. I'll just get a seizure and that might lead to other complications.Only m
đź’śUnugwa đź’›We arrived home in the company of one of the policemen Mr Lewis brought. Andy would be to taken home and a trusted doctor would be appointed to take care of him.Anibe: I feel hungryMe: you always feel hungryWe climbed the facade and entered the front door. The policeman had followed us in and mom was surprised to see us with him. Maybe she thought we caused some sort of troubleMom: any problem?Anibe : no, they just accompanied us backMom: what about the guards?Me: long storyMom: what?Anibe : mom calm downPoliceman : since you both are safe here, I will be going nowAnibe : thanks for your helpThey shook handsPoliceman: well, take careHe left and I sat on the cushion chair 
💜💙Daniel💙💜I laughed and stared at his face. I laughed again and sat on the couchMe: bring you the girl? Bring you Unugwa? Dad, Unugwa and I are no longer in good terms. We don't talk anymore and it's killing me. And you're saying I should walk into her house and say "Unugwa, follow me out let's go on a stroll". Then she would follow me sheepishly and I'll hand her over to you right?I stood upMe: look dad, count me out of whatever you're planning to do. I turned back and walked towards the door.Dad: I know you've been going to see your mother. And I know how close you two are now. If you don't bring me the girl, I'll rid you of your mother foreverI turned and faced himMe: what do you mean by that?Dad: you know. And you also know what I'm capable ofHe dragged
