"Just ask Bella to do it!" I whined at Barb over the phone. I had only left my dorm about an hour and thirty minutes ago, but she had called about five hundred times already. She was complaining about Virginia not wanting to cook breakfast. How was that even my problem?!

"Oh, so you're supporting Virg? Seriously?!" She cried. 

I slapped my palm against my forehead, sighed hard. "Jeez, girl, you could be annoying sometimes. I'm only giving my opinion. You can't keep calling me for little things like this. It's quite annoying."

"Oh, so now, I'm the annoying one?" She sounded angry. 

"Why can't—"

"Fine! Just get out. I'll sort it out myself. And till you return, I won't call you," she uttered. 

"Barb, you've got to—"

"Bye!" And then, she hung up. 

I rolled my eyes, and stepped into the por

    I had never, ever been to a dance party before. Going to the school dance was a big deal to me. I worked at a club, but who would ever know I never paid attention to anything that went on in there? All I did was to serve drinks, think about the next step I'd take in my life, worry about one thing or the other. But this time around, I was gonna be a guest at the dance. I wasn't gonna work there!"What am I gonna wear?" I threw my back into the bed, covered my face with a pillow. "This is awkward. Renee at a party?"I heard Virginia chuckle, and that made me sit up. "It's not funny!" I cried at her, frowning gently. "I mean, what if I end up being embarrassed? And to worsen it all, I'm going on a date with that dude. I'm literally gonna be the talk of the school. A date with Roy? Ah, creepy!""Is it?" Bella scoffed. Turning to her, I noticed how indifferent she looked. "Have you forgotten I once dated Jason?

    "See you later," I added, and hung up my phone call.Walking to the library, I took in a deep breath, feeling weird. For some reason, these last few days, I was wanting to dress enticing enough for Roy. To be honest, after he had deeply expressed his feelings that night, I wasn't feeling too comfortable around him. When he stared at me, it made me feel like an infatuated teenager. So weird.I took a last glance at my cinched waist top, denim pencil jean trouser, and canvas shoe. Of course, I was pretty.Stepping in, I scanned my eyes through the place in search of Roy. He had told me he would stand close to the door, so where the heck was he now?"Pretty." He startled me when he hit his arm against mine."Naughty boy." I slapped his back, glared up at him.He only chuckled, and took my hand, pulling me somewhere.&nb

    After a long stare, I chuckled. He was obviously joking. Sleepover? With a boy?My chuckle turned into a crazy laughter, my arms shaking as a result of it. In fact, I didn't know when I slapped his chest."What a joker you are," I commented."Joker?" He sounded puzzled.I stopped laughing, took a deep sigh before gazing at him. "I didn't know you were this funny. A sleepover?""Um, yep?" He twitched an eyebrow. "Do you think I'm joking? Is that a big deal?""Wait, wait." I lingered my hands in the air, chuckled again. "So, you want a sleepover? I mean, that's crazy.""Not crazy for me." He poked my arm. "I just want us to spend more time together. I miss you all the time."I snorted, and pulled him back to our desk. Ensuring we were both seated, I cleared my throat, scrutinizing him.

    I balled my fingers into a fist, threw my back against my soft bed. Speaking of stupid, I was definitely stupid tonight. I knew that, but I was helpless.After I had left school, Roy had called me three times, but I hadn't answered his calls, still being mad at him for something he knew nothing about. Was I really the crazy one here?Besides my attitude towards Roy, I had also given my roomies some attitude. When I had walked into the room, I had a stern look on. In fact, my boss had given me the night off when she had sensed something was wrong with me tonight.Upset, I threw a pillow over my face, cried in it. What would Roy think of me now? I was making him suffer for the things that had happened to me in the past. This wasn't nice at all. This was Sean's fault! Ah!"What the heck is wrong with you?" Bella questioned. Hearing her voice, I threw the pillow off my head, sat up stra

    My day was so, so bad.Waking up in the morning, the first thing that had ruined my mood was the fact that my roomies weren't willing to speak with me. But since Virg was the mature one, she had only greeted me, but had done or said nothing further. I guessed they were upset that I had behaved crazily towards them last night.To worsen all this, I hadn't seen Roy all day. What if he had decided to give up on me? Or what if that Kathleen had made him leave me? So upsetting.I heaved a sigh, turned around to take my leave. It was six already, so I had to leave for work. I only hoped my boss wouldn't ask me to take the night off for a second time."You're so funny, Roy," I heard someone say that from behind me. Oh, shit, Roy? Plus, a familiar voice? Was that—Slowly, I spun around. And, seeing Roy and Kathleen standing by the other side of the hallway, I curl

    The disturbing sound of the bedside alarm pulled me from my sleep. I was so, so tired, but I had to wake up as soon as possible. Good for me, today's class was only for two hours since we were close to the end of the semester."Oh, goodness," I said that as I yawned. Sitting up, I rubbed my hands against my eyes, the unpleasant smell of my mouth causing my nose to scrunch. Violently scratching my scalp, I slowly opened my eyes. And seeing Virg, I gawked.What? She was wearing a red wig? The nerd?"Virginia?" I was really shocked.She glimpsed at me, and resumed staring at her reflection in the mirror. "What? Why are you staring at me that way?""You're wearing a red wig?" I hopped from my bed, sauntered to her.Reaching her, she grumbled, and turned around to face me. "I knew you'd say something about this. Is it a crime to be on red h

    Slowly, he drove. It was about seven in the evening, and I had definitely enjoyed my ride to his place. We chatted, joked, and played some crazy games. Coming here wasn't a bad choice after all.Parking his car in the parking lot of this enormous condominium, he stepped out, jogged to my door to open it for me."Thank you," I said to him, and waited as he spoke with the old man who had also just stepped out of his car.Grabbing my phone, I read Bella's text message. On my way here, I had told her I would come home a bit late, and she kind of teased me when she had known it was Roy's place I was. Silly lady."Come on." Roy appeared in front of me, smiling. "Let's go in now.""Sure."He allowed me to walk first. Soon, we reached a glass door, tall and wide. And stepping in, we strolled into the first elevator in the reception, headed to the se

    "Hey, guys?" Jason walked in through the already opened door. Another confusing thing was, how the heck did they know the pin to get into the building? Were they that close that they knew personal things about one another?Amy smiled, and rushed to him. "Hey, baby? How're you doing?"I looked away. This was devastating.Only recently, Jason had told Bella he wasn't with any other lady. As well, Roy had assured me that I was the only woman in his heart. But, here they were, caught playing games. Stupid games."Renee." Roy held my hand. I looked at him, giving him a blank expression. "Come please. I need to explain something to you."I kept quiet, scared that I would cry if I had to speak. Well, I was one emotional person. Very little things made me cry. But, that also didn't mean I was foolish.We walked back into the balcony. I knew Kathleen

    The cool breeze staggered through us, teased my hair, causing goosebumps to rise on the exposed part of my skin. I smiled as I stared up at the sky, so happy. Particularly happy because Roy was with me. He had his arms around my waist from behind, no inch left between us."When will you return?" I asked him, my voice soft.He pecked my ear. "In a week. You'll miss me?""Hmm, maybe."He sighed. "Renee, I'm so glad we're finally going to be happy.""Me too." I sighed."I can't wait for you to graduate. We'll be able to leave here, and start a life together," he said.That melted my heart. So he also wanted to start a life with me? So nice."Yeah."Dropping another kiss on my ear, he stepped backwards, held my arms, and twirled me around to face him. He looked stre

    "Pancake or?" I gave Mom a questioning look, waiting patiently for her to answer my question.She sighed. "Pizza. Just order a pizza.""Good." I grinned at her, rushing to get my phone from the living room. I was particularly happy because I wouldn't have to cook any longer.I logged in to the website of the store I loved to order food from, and ordered a pizza immediately. Done with that, I sauntered back to the kitchen.Stepping in, I sighted mom first. She was glued to her phone, and for some reason, sweat seeped on her forehead. Her eyes were widely open, and she swallowed. She looked tense."Mom?" Hearing my voice, she flinched.She blinked about two hundred times in one second, inhaled hard. "Oh, dear. Have you ordered the pizza?"I nodded, pulling a concerned look. "Mom, what's going on? Why do you see

    I watched as Virg packed her stuff, tears in my eyes. Her mom was here to take her home. And, I didn't know when next I would see her. She said she wasn't sure she would survive the cancer, and thinking about that, I was even more fearful. I just couldn't think of losing her."When will the dorms be shut?" She asked, snapped her neck in my direction, smiled at me."Um…" I smiled to ensure she didn't notice the tears in my eyes. "Tomorrow, I think.""That means y'all will be leaving today, right?" She zipped her big box, starting to arrange her bed."Yeah. Barb left yesterday," I informed her."Honey." Mrs. Julio, Virg's mom, ambled into the room.This woman was definitely the youngest mom I had ever seen. Tall, slim, her dark skin so fresh, curvy figure, and her partial grey hair always neatly styled.

    The elevator stopped when it reached the floor of Roy's Condo. Stepping out, I headed to the condo. Smiling, I took a glance at the cookie I had made for him. And, raising my neck, that was when I had to bump into someone. I would admit, I was quite clumsy.Ah. Shit. No. Not now. This moron, Kathleen. What the heck was she doing here?She scoffed. "Damn, you again? Whenever I see you, I always feel like starting my day over.""Stupid," I muttered, scoffed as well. "Woman, you think highly of yourself. Funnily enough, you've got a really low standard. A person who can stoop so low as stealing a babe's guy, has no class at all.""Blah blah." She flapped her hand in the air, rounded her eyes like the idiot she was, sneered as well. "Poor you. I'm so sorry for you. Like I'll say, that dude's mine. And it's so sad you're not willing to back off."I sighed in frustration. "

    I moved my lips, but said nothing. I was so shocked. How had it happened? How had she gotten to meet a boy? This sounded too crazy to be true."Bella, how did it happen?" I managed to ask.She stopped wailing, put her eyes down, sobbed. "A few weeks ago, I went to the club. I wanted to speak with you, but you weren't there. Your boss said you weren't working that night. And then, I-I saw Jason there.""Jason?" I dropped my mouth. So she slept with that idiot? Really?"Yeah." She rubbed off the tears on her cheek. "He offered to have a drink with me, and I accepted. I didn't want to, but I thought it would be a good way to get rid of the stress I felt.""Oh goodness." Barb slapped her hands against her forehead, probably knowing where Bella was leading her story to.Bella sniffed. "We both got drunk. He drove us to the hotel, and then, we&hel

    This bed was comfy, comfy enough for me to have a great sleep. I rolled on it, pulled the blanket over my naked chest, yawned as well. Wait, why was my chest naked?"Oh my gosh!" I sat up straight, gasped. I was on Roy's bed. Naked on his bed.Ah, quite embarrassing.I pulled the blanket up, to cover my chest, ran my fingers through my rough hair. Where was Roy? He wasn't on the bed. Did he go somewhere?Glancing up at the wall clock, I grumbled on seeing it was nine in the morning. First, mom would be so worried. Second, my roomies would be worried. Also, I wasn't supposed to sleep till nine!Heaving a sigh, my eyes caught the shirt I had worn last night. And, that brought a clear memory of how Roy had slipped off the shirt from my body, how he had almost ripped off my underwear, how he had adored my body. He had made my first time so memorable. I was gla

    I wasn't hearing the honking car anymore. Was this death? Was I in heaven? But woah, I was still hearing the barking guys.I pressed my hands against my ears, not wanting to hear anything. I just kept weeping. I just wanted everything to be silent."Are you fine?" That voice was familiar. I knew that person.Slowly I raised my neck to spot whoever had asked me that. And, this instant, I knew a miracle existed. This was a miracle. A big one."Roy!" I jumped from the ground, cuddled him tightly. He dropped a kiss on my forehead, soothed my hair, sighed."Are you okay?" He asked."I'm so scared." I wept on his chest. "I thought they would kill me.""Don't worry." He cupped my jaw, looking so worried. "They won't hurt you any longer. I'm here to help you out."I nodded.

    Something hit my eyes. Whatever that was, was hot, disturbing and crazy. It pulled me from my sleep, which was so annoying. I had to sleep. I hadn't slept so well in a long time.A knot kept my hands and legs captive. I tried to move on this bed, but it seemed impossible to. And, what in the world was this bed made of? Rock?As I yawned, my bad breath attacked my nose, which made me scrunch it. And, trying to sit up, I opened my eyes.I gasped. I was scared. I remembered all that had happened last night.My legs and hands were tied. I was sitting on a dusty floor, close to a terribly old sofa. I knew something had been wrong with where I had been sleeping, but I didn't know it was a floor not a bed.The thing that had pulled me from my sleep was the sun that passed through the silky curtain on the small window above my head. Where was this place?
