Staring at the shiny pink phone ringing endlessly in my hand, I knew I had to pick up the call or else Dad would have a fit. But I was not ready to face Dad. He would ask me endless questions about Cyrus and I was not in the mood for his fatherly advice. Class had ended long ago, and I was waiting for Cyrus in the nearly empty classroom. Forced to answer greetings from my classmates, hypocritical or genuine I could not care less. All I wanted was Cyrus Kaye to materialize in front of me.
I waited a little longer but Cyrus was nowhere to be found including Nicole who I was most definitely not searching for. I heaved a sigh of relief when my phone stopped ringing. I sat

MARIE RICHWOOD P.O.VThe tension in the room was large enough to be splintered into two by an axe. George and I sat dutifully on the settee; the both of us had been shocked into silence by Dad’s earlier expression of anger. George expression of sadness had gradually waned slowly being replaced by annoyance. My displeasure at being kept sitted in the living room was slowly edging its way into my face and I knew my patience was waning with Dad’s continual pacing which was blowing me out of my mind. Mom sat in front of us, I knew Mom would always take our side no matter what. She was my mother after all, in as much as she gives off the humble aura shit. She was a tigress within and even D

CYRUS KAYE P.O.VI searched for Marie to no avail. I needed to tell her about Nicole, Nicole had been sincere with me in her explanation and I knew it was the truth. Whatever scheme Marie had George on, it needs to be aborted right away. I sighed in defeat. The school compound was nearly devoid of students. I scanned the area for any jot of blond hair around but I saw none.Recalling where I last saw Nicole, I went there, hoping I would see Nicole and George and clear out this issue, before it became a mess.I ran towards the building hastingly, I could heard no noise, or any sign of movement. I went in noiselessly, entering the administrative part of the lab

CYRUS KAYE P.O.VDad’s mahogany desk had never fascinated me this much before; I kept my eye glued to the wide beautiful desk. It was also my first time of describing the desk as beautiful. However, I would do anything to avoid the stares Mom and Dad were currently giving each other. Are you shocked? I am as well. It had been a complete turnaround of tables. After I took the bend to his office, I could hear the loud exchange of words between Mom and Dad. I chuckled. This was unusual; they have been able to tolerate each other all this while and ended up treating me unimportantly. What could have lighted the buried tension between them? My answer was not far-fetched. They were arguing because of me. This was a new happening as well. Know

CYRUS KAYE P.O.VStanding in front of her door, I waited anxiously for Marie to pick up the call. My voice was blocked with so much tears, I just wanted a shoulder to lean on.Turning back, I sauntered into the night. But the sound of my name being called made me halt my steps, I turned to look at Marie, she was leaning against the door frame, she slipped out quietly, her hair was flowing all around her, giving her some sort of angelic look. She had a short blue nightgown on, which stopped mid thighs; I forced my eye to leave her smooth legs that were on full display, fully accentuated by the street light.

MARIE RICHWOOD P.O.VI could not believe what I was being told. Cyrus was an extremely intelligent person. He must have guessed the connection. I was speechless. I never mentioned anything to him but he was able to decode game plan with George and Marie.I looked at him content with my choice, he was so relaxed sitting on my bed, bare chested, the chest I had just been touching minutes ago. He was looking so cool and handsome, I could not believe my luck, not only was he smart, he was gorgeous.“So what you are trying to say now is that Nicole is not in love with you?” George asked for the thi

Though I had been joyous when my deal with George started, but I was not so happy to see the outcome of it.George steadied her with his body, finally getting a grip of herself, Nicole pushed him away from her in rage, I was surprised at the force that came from such a small body,”I am not a game for the both of you to play with as you want. How dare you play with me like that?” backing away from him, she covered her tearful face with the back of her hand ”I am such a fool,” She muttered and began walking out of the sport complex.

CYRUS KAYE P.O.VI locked myself in my room immediately I came back from school. Mom had tried to talk to me but I did not listen to her. Nan had also tried to get me to talk to her but I ignored them both. Somehow, those two were in cohort. I never knew they were friends; though Mom was rarely home anyway. I noticed the continued absence of my father at home. I refrained from asking. He is a grownup man; he would find his way home. He was probably stewing somewhere having loosed to Mom for the first time in his life.I occupied myself with my compu

MARIE RICHWOOD P.O.VI waited until I heard the last bell. Cyrus had kept to himself throughout the day and I was sick and tired of the sullen attitude. I watched him from the corner of my eye as he arranged his books absentmindedly into his school bag. I sighed; I waited for him to finish with his packing. He threw the bag over his shoulder, ignoring Nicole’s goodbye wish. He stood up from his seat; giving me a small wave, he left the class looking unfocused.
