CHAPTER TWENTY TWO

Things happened so fast that the two could not control the hunger and thirst they had for each other , things escalated and the two didn’t know what they could do so they could turn back and make things right but what had happened had already happened, there was no going back and definitely not changing a thing

“I should get going, my aunt will be very mad at me, I didn’t mean to sleep over at your place, things just escalated and I don’t know how things went down this line, can we just forget that this happened for a moment and don’t tell anyone please” Dylan said when he realized what they had just done, he like Alyssa and not Maeve, or maybe he liked them both but whatever he felt for Alyssa was strong, he didn’t want to mess it up even before it started

    CHAPTER TWENTY FIVE“So, you already talked to your aunt about what we found out yesterday or you still holding back?” Maeve asked Dylan that night as they both enjoyed the party, he had just gotten there and the party was lively, he wasn’t expecting a lot of people to turn up but Maeve was among the most beautiful girls in the school so he had no doubts why a lot of people showed up, it was a pool party, they were seated on one of the seats just across the swimming pull, Maeve was sipping on her wine while Dylan was taking a tusker cider, he did not want to get much drunk that night since Alicia’s birthday party was the following day and he did not want to have hangovers on her sister’s special day“Yeah, I talked to her about it earlier today, it is not like I had a choice anyway did I?’ he asked her and she chuckled in response“Of course not and why would you say that? she is your aunt and of course

    CHAPTER TWENTY NINE“Can you believe that Mike slapped Alyssa yesterday, you know sometime I wonder what is always on the mind of some men when they slap women, I mean women are the most vulnerable human beings that should be respected ad not beaten up, and an the same time I am wondering why she was so defensive about him when I tried to say that she should report him, she got so mad at me and I had to withdraw my statement and it got me thinking, what is it that really happens behind these closed doors? Must be a lot that people are trying to hide just so they can escape the reality, it is a sad reality that we live in” Dylan said to his aunt the following day as he helped her arrange the living room, they were holding the party in the backyard of their house and a lot of people had already arrived and the kids were playing outside, Melissa had invited some of her friends from school and it was a surprise that she had made quite a lot of friend within the
