"You know, this is my favorite too". He says and I nodded.

He planted the flower there, because he knows it's my favorite.

"Yes I know. I didn't like it before, but somehow you made me fall inlove with it. I mean, the way you take care of the flower garden in the main compound and how they started to blossom afterwards, shows that anything can be beautiful, as long as it is well cared for".

He seem happy hearing me say that, he sat up and then turned to me.

"Why are you always so nice to me? He asked and I smiles. This time I was not thinking of what could or could not happen I have given up on believing that he could ever say anything towards the direction I am hoping he would.

But as time went on, it remained untouched and our interactions became infrequent.Despite my lingering feelings, I found solace in the companionship of Darius, who kept me occupied. Our study sessions were frequent, though at times, he would want to end it with an intimate mood or conversation, still his presence at my place filled the gaps, leaving little room to cross paths with Myles, despite our close proximity.While ensuring Darius was taken cared of, I didn't neglect my duties towards Myles, I cooked for him daily, as I would not want him eating anything that would hurt him.However, as I sat alone in my room, Darius barged In, looking tense.

    I was thinking that Myles would notice that I was hurt, but somehow, he is the one that looks hurt. I couldn't stand seeing him so pained, he was holding on to his stomach, that I became so worried for him."What is the problem, I asked, walking towards him to grab his hands. He looks like he would fall, if he is not held close. He placed one of his hands on my waist, as I help him get in."I don't know, I don't feel so well". He says, and as soon as I heard that, I thought of so many things, all at the same time."What did you eat? I asked, helping him inside the house, I made him relax on the soft couch, I removed his foot wears, and started to unbutton his shirt, I wanted to stop myself half way, because seeing that much of his body, might just bring back all the feelings I thought I had overcome, but for his sake, I had to, go on, I twisted the last button, then pressed on his stomach and he let out a loud scream."Did you eat something you were not supposed to eat? I asked and

    His mother came out, and was pretending to be brave. I could tell, that she had been crying, who would hear such a thing and not cry, she saw tears In my eyes and started blinking her eyes in a bit to send back her own tears, that had started forming bubbles around her eyes, but off course, when the heart is too heavy with heart ache, whatever type, it may not be able to hold itself back, it will pour it all out, through that little passage, which happens to be the eyes.A tear found it way down her cheek and she immediately wiped it, then she reached out to her handbag, and brought out her eyeglass, which she immediately put on. She went to a corner to explain to my mother what it is that was said, hoping that I wouldn't hear. I was a bit far from where they both stood, but I heard my mother say."Kiara should not know this. His mother was quiet, but my mother wasn't, her worry was on me, finding out. She won't be able to handle it". She added. That was true, I don't know how to h

    I was seriously trying to shake the gloom of what is happening with Myles out of my thought and the fact that he has refused to even open his eyes since he was brought in.Somehow I feel he could hear voices, and he could tell the people in the room, so he decided that leaving his eyes closed, is the best option for him.At some point, I even started thinking that she was loosing it. On the day Myles finally opened his eyes, I was alone with him in the room, others had left me alone, saying they had to do one thing or the other, but I just cannot leave him all in the name of going back to school. Though I would want to keep up a good grade, I could never get a good grade, with my best friend in the hospital.I soon started feeling like I was depressed.I already know the feeling of depression, they include, feeling of hopelessness, difficulty concentrating, irritability, tearfulness, and loss of interest.

    By the time I got back inside the room, Myles was surrounded, there were so many persons there at the same time, that I started to wonder just how long I stayed out, for me to have missed something. The nurses were there with different first aid tools, Darius and Ariana were also there, looking like the world has turned in on them. I pushed my way through the crowd, and found out that he was been resuscitated, with the doctor, pressing hard on his chest."What happened? I asked his mother who was there, crying. This time, she was not trying to be all tush, she was scared, she was worried, just like every other person.I started panting, I became really worried. My friend was dying and there is nothing I could do about it.Finally he was stabilized, and the doctor left him, with the nurses that surrounds him, they also started leaving him one after the other. Soon it was just me, his mother and Ariana, that were around crying.I didn't want to cry. I have had enough negative imaginati

    I knew that there was no way I would keep my mother in the dark and allow Myles or his mother know about it. If I am going to keep my sacrifice a secret, then I should keep it a secret from every other person.I was lost in my thought, and looking into space, that I didn't realize that there is a pressing face on me, when I looked towards the direction of the face that was on me, I looked away immediately. I thought it was just one person staring daggers at me, not until I looked back that I realized that my mother and Darius had been looking at me. I can guess what Darius must be thinking. We have been fighting for weeks now, and instead of coming together, due to the situation surrounding us, I have sidelined him since then, and focused on my friend. I just showed him that Myles is my priority and there was no way I would change because of the fight of the other day."Kiki, why don't you go home and have a proper rest, I will stay here tonight". I heard Ariana say. Since he has b

    I was having difficulty thinking of any other thing. I was contemplating if I should continue with what I planned on doing. I kept having the feeling of pulling away, after all, the doctor had said that I can decide to back out if I wanted to, and if I had thought of it and didn't think I could go ahead with it, all I needed to do was to tell him that I had thought it through and that it wouldn't work.But then, if I back out, what becomes the fate of Myles. Already I feel so sad that he is sick and he cannot move about as he used to. The charm I used to know of him, was gone, he was looking like someone who had lost the spark of life, and the only way I believe I can bring back the spark, is to do what I feel is best for him.After thinking so much about it, I gradually gave in to sleep. I opened my eyes almost immediately only to find myself in a room filled with nurses, who were smiling at me."What am I doing here? I asked and instead of answering me, they just kept smiling, I
