I rushed into the shower, took a bath and was out in ten minutes. I gave myself one last look in the mirror, and was pleased with myself.
'Well my panic of school must have calmed me down' I looked at my eyes that were back to normal.
‘Call it whatever you want Maya’ my inner self chimed out of nowhere.
‘Shut up!’ I demanded a bit harshly.
"Oh my.... did you bath?" Andrea startled me whistle leaning on my bed.
"Jesus! Andy!......what are you doing here" jumping with hysteria I questioned. Deciding to ignore her presence I moved about dressing up like a crazy child ready for a day out at the fun fair, whiles pacing around the room gathering my things for school. I ignored her presence and finished all I needed to do.
My sister looked at me like I was crazy.
'What is up with her?' she pondered as she studied me, and checking the time on her phone.
‘You know we are tied together right!’

"I'm sorry sis" I muttered with a soft voice deciding to apologize but with detachment, I was still taken by that somebody.I turned my gaze back to where I was looking, Andrea noticing my reactions and detachment followed my gaze troubled as to what had drawn my mind into hurting her."Who is that?" and she was suddenly drawn too. My sister spoke softly into my ear, which caused me to jump and cause a little bit of a squeal and commotion.I regained my composure realizing a lot of students were looking at us now."Shit....... don't do that!" although I returned my gaze to where I had been looking.I don’t know why but I just had to look at him. There was something about him I couldn’t put a finger on."I don’t like boys but damn him......." I head Andrea cry out in want. Realizing I probably looked creepy looking at him this much I tried regaining my strength and posture.Although after registering what she just sai
Andrea's P.O.VI maneuvered through the students making my way to the secretary after being left by my sister with my head faced down."Bang""Damn, shit! shit! shit!" I swore as my head met something strong, giving a slight dizzy head."Fuck! Can you watch where you are going? Oh! It’s you. Does any of you guys have a problem of bumping into people!" a husky yet soft voice said agitatedly with sarcasm chuckling at me.I looked up and my eyes couldn't believe it.'It's him'.'My word is he hot'I gawked eye fucking him. The boy in front of me shifted his gaze nervously, hating being analyzed I’m sure. He cleared his throat distracting me from my thoughts. He studied my gaze and chuckled as he realized I wasn't just analyzing but eye fucking him too, well I could tell by his reactions but other than that I couldn’t read him clearly. He was a closed case, so reserved and calm, too calm. I chuckl
Mayas P.O.V "Miss Johnson I presume?" "Umm yes and you're?" I asked a little agitated by the sudden halt. "The name is Pierre Hudson mam" he formally extended his hand. 'Such formality, it reminds me of my home days, I hate it!' I looked at his hand and decided to shake it, although I hated shaking people's hands. I mean who knows where they had been. "Hi! How can I help you?" I tried to get rid of him. I hated small talks, especially old small talks; it made me sound like an old loner with thousand cats. "Forgive me but I just wanted to introduce myself, I couldn't help but realize how good looking you’re" he showed confidence and hope. 'Did he just stop me because I’m beautiful, seriously it’s my first day and this happens? Such an idiotic idea and first impression.' "Pardon me I'm late for my first class, although I will say thank you for the complement, you’re very kind and it's even my first day" I
Maxine’s P.O.V "Yo! What class you got?" Cie maneuvering with me through the students getting out of the showers after our P.E class. We had our own showers. 'Ok! Not to sound weird but we never shared a shower, we just had two showers at the long end nobody used but us'. "I’m not sure but lemme check. Why you asking anyways, we on the same classes?' I asked suddenly confused. "Broh! You know I aren't gonna be in classes you aren't, its ride or die bitch" Cie exclaimed happily enjoying using me. I looked at her dead in the eyes 'I swear I can never get rest from her, I mean I love her to death and she's probably the only thing I love in this world, well except for my.......no! no! I am not gone think about that person not now, not ever!' Cie, realizing I had been lost in my own thoughts nudged me. "Man you know you love me; you can't get enough of this" she said as matter of fact pointing at her whole b
Maya’s P.O.VTime flew by fast as I was drinking my coffee alone in my home room thinking about my teaching days at kindergarten and the new school I was in. I didn’t want to join the other teachers in the kitchen.'I mean talk about what, the weather and how kids are, that’s just too boring'.I heard the bell ring so I decided to prepare for the next class.'Seniors for English, oh so help me God I don’t get irritated and kill someone, this hormonal teenagers!' I thought thinking about how troublesome teenagers are.'I mean they have this mentality of thinking they know it all when in truth they do not realize they are just getting to know life'.There was the junior book I had taken out to check up on what will be learnt so I decided to take it back to my classroom storeroom to get the senior one. Whilst in my storeroom I heard noises coming from my homeroom, like serious noise.
Dribble, dribble……. ‘Fuck!’ I thought failing miserably in scoring. I had been in the gym the whole day. Well not the whole day but I kind of was. I gave up, sat down on the bleachers with my hands on my head I huffed frustrated. ‘I swear I heard someone say they wanted her, and that she’s the one but who. I don’t get it how and who because there were no words being exchanged, in fact it seemed the noise died down. Anyways, it cannot be her right. I mean that lady right there can’t be more than twenty five years old. She looks young and clearly not Miss Johnson from my kindergarten. It’s a shame I never knew her name, I’m sure that’s her little sister, but why would her family be everywhere I go? This is confusing!’ I huffed and laid my head on the bleachers behind me looking at the roof still conflicted. ‘I mean why did I leave class? That was not her, I’m sure! It can’t be her. I mean her eyes were crescent black not seas blue.’ ‘I need some
Maya’s P.O.V ‘What just happened?’ My day went by hazy as I continued teaching. Although I would glance at the door from time to time waiting. ‘Maybe he will come back’ I assured myself. I don’t know why I cared but I just wanted him back. Before I knew it class was over. I was so relieved but still trouble about the student that did not return. ‘You know what, I need to act like I don’t care. Like it was a normal day and a student just felt like he didn’t want to learn. I need to report him to the principal’ “Goodbye Miss Johnson” some student lady crew sang in unison. And yeah there was Macie with them, all hulled up around her like a magnet. “Goodbye kids, and enjoy your day. Stay safe” I smiled back at them. “Yes mam” Macie saluted me like a soldier. I just laughed at her as I beckoned she leave. Closing the door behind me I made my way to the principal. ‘I’m sorry pal, but I have to report
Max’s P.O.V ‘Creek creek creek’ alarm buzzer went off. “Mmhhh, I’m up” I said to no one but myself. I woke up feeling lazy, tired, like I had been running thousand miles. I tried sitting up on my bed with my legs on the floor or better yet standing but it was no use. I just ended up sitting at the edge of my bed face palming myself facing down trying to shake the feeling of tiresomeness, but it wasn’t going away. “Agh” I cried softly as I positioned myself back to bed, lying facing up. I looked at the ceiling thinking of the feeling I was having. I wanted to wake up so bad but my body was refusing me. I closed my eyes for what felt like forever and rested for a bit but when I opened them, I still felt the same. ‘Maybe a jog will restore my energy’ I thought as I jumped out of the bed ignoring how weak I felt. I didn’t want my day to be all about weakness and laziness. I got up and got dressed. I took my phone m
Maya's P.O.V “Hey stop!” Sebastian shouted at Max.She had just jumped out of the car and rand like a shooting bullet.“Sebastian, Sebastian, Sebastian drive!” I roared, they were catching up on us.I saw Naya waving at me with a wicked smile.“We are dead!” Sebastian was trying to lose them.“I said drive faster!” He was taken back like I was.“What about Max?”“We'll catch her later, now drive faster” I shook the steering wheel like the car was going to move any faster.Panicked, the tires screeched as we drove off faster.As we drove, we were silent. I was thinking of the next move, and Sebastian was hyperventilating.“Quit it!” I was angry.‘He got me into this hot mess’“Sorry!” He mumbledHe was making me sick in my stomach.I hadn't taken bloo
PRESENT DAY ‘Fuck this’ I got out of the car, and I ran as fast as my feet could take me.Maya's P.O.V‘Why am I suddenly interested in a girl, and that kind of a girl?’The feeling of anxiety was creeping on me, I felt myself getting weak on the knees.‘Well she doesn't look like a girl, but still, she is a girl. I need to see this girl clearly. I need to get closer’ my thoughts were raging as I made my way out of the car.She was running away.“Maya!....” I could hear Sebastian calling. It was faint, but I was too troubled to entertain him.‘Isn't that her brother coming back with a male figure? I guess that's not their father, and she probably has trust issues with the police, but why did she allow the brother to drive there from the start? Uh, why am I cracking my head over this girl’ I scratched my head as I felt a small head
Panic hit me.“I don't know them” I answered, ignoring the sting on my left cheek.“You are lying to us” the male officer holding my hands slapped me really hard. I felt that one, it was all up in my face. I ignored the pain again.I realized that I was in their world. I had to play their game, or I would find myself in a dire pickle.“I'm serious, I don't know them. Where is Sydney?What did you do to him? I want to see him. He will assure you I don't know anything” I assured looking at them one by one.I don't know why, but it was like i was watching a movie of myself. I couldn't feel anything at that moment, but anger.I felt a hard slap again on my other cheek, and another and another. It started to sting some more, but I was numb inside. I could tell they were not going to entertain my innocence. They just wanted the truth, their own way.“Where are the computers?” A male offic
FOUR HOURS AGO Maya's P.O.V “I couldn't get them.Damn kids of this days, they are so fast”Sebastian huffed facing down trying to catch his breath.“Getting old? I asked”It was funny to watch him struggle.“Definitely not!” He coughed for a moment.‘Well that was a bust’ I sighed.I mean, the whole reason we were there was for those two.And now that we don't have them on sight, I guess it was back to square one.“Did you see him?” Sebastian interrupted my train of thought.“Ummm...”I truly didn't see him.I was too busy gawking at the girl the boy was running with. She looked so familiar.So warm.“You weren't paying any attention were you?” Sebastian asked, but I was still zoning.‘Why did she look familiar?’&ld
No one's P.O.V “I. need. To…” Sam was trying to catch his breath.“Listen, I need see your boss” Sam tried getting attention from the lady in front of him, but it was no use. She was too engrossed to entertain him.“I’m sorry Sam, your father is busy right now. He's with someone important” The woman pointed at the door to the chief police’s office.“Listen Wonder....” Sam tried reasoning, but the woman in front of him wasn't having it. She was adamant on her responses.“Sam...” She huffed looking tired, realizing that Sam wasn’t going anywhere, nor was he promising not to bother her.“...you should take a seat” she finished, clearly not interested in what the young man had to say.Sam decided to obey and take the sit he was offered. Whilst sitting, he was busy fidgeting with his fingers, like he was about to break them. As he sat, his nerves got the best of him. He looked down, his right hand rubbing his palms. It seemed they were sweating, he was suddenly rubbing them on his trouser
Max's P.O.V We were rushing through the corridors. Sam had decide to follow me, for some reasons I didn't know about.The moment he saw me leaving he followed.“Why are you following me? Damn!”I was agitated by his presence. I didn't know him that well. I had so much to deal with, than to deal with him too.For all I know he could be with them.“Ding!” The elevator opened.“Wha…”Maya's P.O.VThe elevator doors opened revealing a unique face.A face that intrigued me more.“There...”Sebastian took off running chasing after them. I just stood there dumb folded. It was like I couldn't move.My whole body felt heavy and warm.Max's P.O.V‘It's them. Wait, Miss Johnson!’“Run!” I turned to Sam to give him a heads up.
Maya's P.O.V “Ummm, where are we going now?” Sebastian kept glancing outside the window as we passed the streets. It seemed he wasn't sure about the destination either.“There are some flats they said I will encounter up the heel” he confirmed my thought dismissively. “Who said?” I was still pressing matters. He was glaring ahead not giving me a second chance, not even a glance.“I think this is it” he motioned as he packed his car.“Shall we?” He asked as he tilted his head outside to look at the building.Yeah! And I didn’t forget that he ignored my question, I just chose to let him be. I wanted to see if his story was going to pen out.“Yeah, I think this is the place” He locked his car after we got out, and tossed the keys to his jacket pocket.Suddenly I felt dizzy. It was like I was about to puke. I held my waist as my other hand leaned on his car. “My Q....Maya are you alright?” Sebastian questioned as he held my back rubbing it a bit. It wasn’t helping in any way, ins
Max's P.O.V My mind was fuzzy. I had been waiting for the elevator to open for minutes. ‘Why can't it open?’ I arrived at my destination, not sure how I got there though. “Oh, Max. Jeremy says hi...” “Johan, nice to see you, hey Jeremy” I waved “He doesn't get it does he?” Johan inquired looking at Jeremy, then back at me. “Nop!” I waved one last time, then shifted my gaze back to Johan “He too desperate. It's not cute” “I know! Can you occupy him while I try running away from his stare. You know if I don't leave he'll come here, and he will start talking nonstop, until...” “…until you reach your destination. I know. Anyways let me help you with the elevator” Johan took out his card and opened the elevator. Only to find a couple inside the elevator making out. “Mmhhhh!” Johan murmured. I just laughed and felt bad for them. ‘Johan can be crazy at times’ “You two out!” He pointed to the couple. “...you in!” He pointed at me. He was authoritative like that. Too nice
PRESENT DAYMaya's P.O.V“Sebastian, I was there remember? I wasn't even young to forget”he was dragging the whole story.“Yes, but you were never outside that day. You do not know what happened next”“What do you mean?” he caught my attention.“When the Oracle got outside, you remember my great grandfather left to monitor the dining?” Sebastian inquired creasing his eyes together.“Yes, father asked that he foresee if food was prepared” he was consistent with dragging me along with him. It was taking forever.“Indeed, but surprisingly when he got to the feast he found out that the oracle had told some of the people of Redland the same story”“What story? This is dreading Seb...”“Patience!” He hushed me.“The story was about a child who would be born touched by God. T
