2020-10-25 03:35:20The stench of a burning substance made my nose scrunch. I sat up, rubbed my knuckles against my sleepy eyes, too lazy to get up from bed.
"What the heck is that?" I murmured, my eyes slowly opening.
My eyes caught Barb. She was on her bed, glaring at herself. "It's your butt that's smelling. Virg fried it while you were asleep."
"Huh?" I furrowed my eyes at her. Just about to say something, Virg slammed the door of the bathroom, stormed to her bed. "What's going on?" I asked further .
"Um, someone just burned breakfast." She glared at Barb, and dropped her butt on her bed. "And now, we've got nothing to eat. We're helpless."
"I said I'm sorry!" Barb whined. "I had a phone call, so it's not like I did it on purpose."
Virg rolled her eyes, walked to her bedside table, and hissed when she grabbed her purse. "Alright, let's get pizza," she suggested.&

Bella____I didn't know how it happened, but I had agreed to talk with Jason. Did he use charm on me?It was six in the evening already. After Renee had left, I had also left the dorm in order to prevent speaking with him. But when I had returned, I had seen him sitting on the balcony. It got me quite flustered, but what could I do? It seemed like he was more than willing to speak with me.We had been staying here for about five minutes already. Silence was the only thing that moved around us. The sky was getting dark, and the city was calm and boring.He stared at the view through the balcony, his hands in the pocket of his track pants. Did he wear a tracksuit because I was also in that? Had he been stalking me?I glared at him, so enraged. I was particularly angry because he looked so handsome. A cheat like him deserved to be so ugly. His brown hair ought to

We hadn't spoken with each other yet. After I had offered to dance, which was crazy, he had asked me to come into his condo. As soon as I did, he went somewhere, and still hadn't returned even after twenty three minutes.Okay, I had to work tonight. And if he wasn't ready to talk with me, it was better I returned home, and gave him some time alone. He was probably not in the mood to have anyone around.I took my phone from the couch. One hour left before I would go to work. I couldn't wait any longer. It was time to leave.I was upset, but I didn't change my mind. Wasting my time here wasn't a good idea. I had too many things to do. My exams, my work, my family, all those could help me get rid of thinking about him.Standing in front of the tall door, ready to leave, I groaned at myself. Shit, how would I open this door? I didn't know the code, and I also didn't have access to

The last two weeks had been quite stressful for me. I was working, at the same time reading for my exams, also trying to balance my relationship with Roy. Roy had said he was fine with me having to work a lot, but I didn't want to make the same mistake I had made in my last relationship. No matter how large the workforce was, I was going to balance it all.Walking into my room, I shut the door behind me. About to sit for a while, my phone rang. Seeing it was mom, I smiled."Hi beautiful momma," I greeted her.She chuckled. "Silly. How're you doing?""I'm good." I propped my butt on the bed, exhaled. "I'm just kind of bulked with so much to do.""I'm sorry for that. When are you gonna come home?" She asked.I sucked my teeth. "Um, I'll finish my exams soon. Don't worry about that. I'll let you know when I'll return."

"And that was how it happened." Roy intertwined our fingers together, smiled widely.We were walking down the silent road, heading somewhere. Our date had lasted about an hour already. After he had parked his bike close to a coffee shop, he had asked us to stroll to where he was taking me to."I love these earrings." I smiled as I told him that. He had bought it for me, and I loved it! It was gold and it looked quite expensive. I didn't appreciate expensive things, but I liked that this one was from him.He stopped walking, and I did the same. About to turn to him, he hurried to stand in front of me. As he did so, he grinned. I was confused by that, but I said nothing. Could he be checking me out? He hadn't complimented my looks, and I was surely still expecting him to talk about it."What?" My eyebrow quirked.He narrowed his eyes at me. "There's somethin

I was getting too fearful. My hands were up, but the officer wasn't saying anything further. What had we done? Did we look like criminals or what?"Sir, what's our offense?" Roy demanded. What a relief.The officer stepped even closer. "Someone reported the sale of drugs in this place.""Sir!" The shop owner cried as she rushed to him. "That's not true. This is my restaurant, and I can assure you that nothing of such exists here.""Really?" He glared at her, a ugly simper on his ugly lips. I hated him already, even though I wasn't sure why. "Alright then. When the police are done searching here, we'll know the truth to that.""But there's—""Do not argue with an officer." He pointed his baton at her, seeming quite flustered. What was wrong with this oldie? "If you aren't guilty, then you should keep quiet."I turned to R

"So boring," I grumbled at myself, hit my head against the desk in front of me, exhaled hard.This was tiresome; studying. For the first time in a long time, I was tired of studying. My exam was going to be at eight tomorrow morning, so I had to study, but no, my brain wasn't grasping the content of this textbook.Of course, I had studied before, but revising was the problem. Was I supposed to go back home, and take a long, nice sleep now? I guessed I should visit the restroom first.Standing up, heading to the restroom, my eyes caught Virg. She was seated by the other side of the library, and gosh, she was wearing a blue wig, make up on her face, also not wearing her glasses. Seriously? What was with this lady?I gaped, speechless. I had seen her crying, I had seen her with a boy, and she had recently been acting so weird. I was worried about all this, and the problem was I c

My exam had been good, yet quite bad.It was a bit bad because I had thought about Roy while taking it, so I had almost gotten distracted by that. But well, I hadn't been so distracted after all. I had done it very well.Although the exam had lasted for three hours, I had decided to wait longer at school. I had roamed about, eaten lunch at the cafeteria, and had maybe hoped that I would see Roy around.Right now, it was six in the evening, and I was so exhausted. I was exhausted and sad. Roy hadn't called or texted me all day, and it made me wonder if he was angry or something. It seemed liked I had overreacted last night. I should have answered him when he had called me back.Stepping into my room, I hurried to my bed, tossed my backpack on it, and sat on it. Bella was asleep, which was weird since this was only six. Someone was in the bathroom, and that would probably be Vir

I strolled on the silent road. The only things that were heard were the crickets, owls and bats. The place was dark, only the moon shining against the asphalt. Sweat dripped from my forehead, making me realize how tired I was.I was wearing no shoes, my dress was tattered, and my long hair was tousled. I felt a thick pain in my lower abdomen, and from my neck to my back, it felt like a rock was thrown against that region of my body.The place was suffocating, I gasped for air. I was exhausted, trekking aimlessly, praying to God that I would get home as soon as possible. Something pinched my palm, and moving my eyes to whatever that was, I realized I was holding my necklace. This necklace that I didn't know what it entailed.Soon, the vicinity was surrounded with thick echoes of a woman's voice."Leave Roy!" The voice cried. "Don't get into danger. Don't make me haunt you!

Hey guys, I want to appreciate everyone who reads this book. It means a lot to me. Sooooo, I know some of you might not be happy with the end, but I want you to know it's just a story. And wait, remain calm! There's going to be book two. This is more like a prequel, an introduction to their love story. Book two is titled: Chasing her. It'll be out soon. Yes. Soon. You don't wanna miss book two, do you? 🤔 How do you think it'll go when Renee finds out about this? This would be a second heartbreak, right? Or wait, how'll she find out? Roy's a great pretender, you know? And yeah, if Roy could betray her, don't you think there could be more craziness in this story? That's enough of a spoiler, right? Thanks to God for making this book complete, and thanks to everyone who read and supported t

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.
Chasing his Forty five: Silly
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.
Chasing his Forty one: Heaven
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?
