Ria and Dani didn’t exchange any words as they ate their breakfast that morning and Mrs. Mahmata soon noticed the tension between the two.“What’s wrong with both of you?” she asked carefully.Dani reply her standing up carrying her bag and walking out of the dining room. Ria gave her mom an apologetic smile as she walked out of the dining with a smile. She got walked out of the house and saw that Dani was boarded a bus.She sighed as she got into the car and drove out of the garage. She sped to school and parked while waiting for the bus to arrive.Dani sighed when she saw Ria waiting by the gate. Ria walked up to her and grabbed her hand.“Let’s talk,” Ria said as she pulled her towards a closed area.“What is it?” Dani asked and Ria sighed.“I’m sorry,” Ria said as she played with her fingers.“I’m really sorry for talking to you like that even when I knew you were watching out for me” Ria added and Dani smiled.“It’s okay. But are you okay?” Dani asked and Ria turned to her.“Huh?
Damien sighed as he slid to the floor of the toilet. He slowly ran his hands through his hair. His self-restraint was getting weaker each time he saw her. He had to force himself to keep his eyes on her face because he was scared that the moment his eyes came across her lips; he was going to weave his lips in her mouth.He stepped out of the bathroom and washed his face before walking out of the restroom. He needed to get some sleep and get Ria out of his head for a short while.Ria adjusted her lipstick as she stared at herself in the mirror. She still felt all over but there was nothing she could do about it. She walked out of the restroom and someone pinned her to the wall.She winced a little seeing it was Gabriel. She tried to wear a smile, “Hey babe” Ria said as Gabriel smiled and winked at her.“You look so good today,” Gabriel said and Ria smiled.“You say that every day” Ria replied and Gabriel shrugged.“But you look really good today,” Gabriel said as he placed his lips on
Ria sat in her car as she cried. Tears poured down her cheeks freely as she placed her head on the steering wheel. She didn’t know why she was crying yet the tears flowed down her cheeks.“Your sister is waiting for you in the car park bah?” Lisa asked and Dani nodded.“We are stealing a lift today as well” Lisa added and Dani chuckled and laughed.She carried her bag and waited for Lisa and Theo to pack their bags. Someone rushed past her and mistakenly pushed her. Dani let out a scared yell before someone else pushed her and Dani found herself in Theo’s arms.“Are you guys drunk?” Theo asked as the girls who had been running around stopped and everyone turned to Theo.“If you are running around, you can always say excuse me if someone is obstructing your way. Stop pushing people” Theo said with a frown and one of the girls pursed her lips.“We are sorry” she apologized and Theo rolled her eyes as he turned to Dani.“You okay?” Theo asked as he slowly removed his hands from Dani’s wa
Dani sighed as she watched the power bike disappear in a distance. She rubbed her forehead as she walked back into the house. She sighed as she made a cup of coffee and walked upstairs toward Ria’s room. She knocked on the door and walked inside her room. Ria was curled up on the bed with the blankets pulled all the way to her neck.“I brought some coffee,” Dani said as she sat at the edge of the bed.“Do you want some?” Dani asked and Ria shook her head.“Whatever is bothering you, is it related to Damien?” Dani asked.“The school forum says you both hate each other to the bones. Even before he disappeared for a year. A few posts even said that you were happy when he disappeared because you had peace” Dani said as she sighed.“Seeing the two of you today is making me doubt the school forums. Is that what you two made everyone see? Is there something you both are hiding?” Dani continued asking.“I just want you to tell me the truth. Did you two hate before? Or were there sparks and so
Ria wore a small smile as she approached her friends the next morning. Ava frowned upon seeing her slightly pale face.“I wanted to take pictures this morning but your pale face won’t let me,” Ava said and Ria smiled a little as she turned to Zara.“Hey Zara, I apologize for yesterday. I went overboard. I shouldn’t have spoken to you like that” Ria said as Zara pursed her lips.“I wanted to apologize first too. I’m sorry, I should have read the mood and tried not to do anything if I didn’t have anything that could help” Zara said and Ria smiled.“It’s no big deal though,” Ria said as they pulled each other for a hug.“Awwn” Ava and Penny cooed as Ava clicked a picture.“You guys go on, I need to look for Gabriel and patch things up with him,” Ria said and the girls laughed.“It’s nice that you want to patch things up with him,” Penny said and Ria smiled as she walked off in search of Gabriel.She soon found him among his friends. She flashed a smile at all of them as they greeted her.
It had been almost a week since Ria and Gabriel spoke last and people began to notice that there was tension between the two.“It’s just sex Ria, it’s not like you are a virgin,” Penny said and Ria shrugged.“I can’t even get into the mood. So we are supposed to have sex when I can’t have fun or pleasure. Can you have such sex?” Ria asked and Zara shook her head.“You guys can talk it out anyways,” Zara said and Ria chuckled.“Trust me, Zara, I tried but he wouldn’t listen,” Ria said as she ate her snack.“It’s so annoying,” Ria said rolling her eyes as Janet folded her hands and turned to Ria.“If you think you can’t handle him any longer or you feel he’s getting annoying; then break up with him,” Janet said and the table went silent.“Janet, you can’t just say it like that,” Zara said with a scoff.“Yes, people experience bad times in their relationships. Just because times are bad doesn’t mean, they should break up. You’ve never had a boyfriend so you wouldn’t understand” Zara adde
“You are where you are because of her. You are who you are because of her. One of the hottest guys in Bells High? Was that meant to be a joke or a sarcastic comment?” Damien asked again sending everyone who had just finished laughing into another fit of laughter.“Gabriel, your position here is critical. You are the one using her, someone you are using, how dare you complain about her?” Damien asked.“Looking at your trousers, I think you really have a small dick” Damien added as he ran his tongue over his lips to moisten them.“Then you all, why can’t you guys cultivate the habit of minding your business?” Damien asked with a frown as everyone went quiet.“What’s with you and someone’s else sexual life? What if she’s a virgin? Does that stop you from fucking whosoever you want to fuck?” Damien asked.“Does she being a virgin mean you also get to be a virgin as well? Get your facts straight and stop finding fun in other people’s businesses. Bunch of jobless people” Damien said as he g
Ria touched her head as she looked around. She looked around and still couldn’t find Damien. She sighed as she turned and saw him walking towards her.Ria stared at him as he walked towards her. Today Damien was wearing jeans pants ripped at the knees and a baggy top. His dark eyes were bottomless as usual as he stopped in front of her.Ria couldn’t forget the sweet feeling that spread through her heart when Damien supported her a few minutes earlier. She wanted to run into his arms and hug him. She wanted to run her hands through his hair and slam her lips against his.“Hey,” Ria said and Damien blinked his eyes as he slipped his hands into his pockets.“I heard you were looking for me,” Damien said and Ria smiled. She liked hearing his cello-like voice a lot. It just somehow smoothened her nerves.“It’s the second time you are helping me even when I didn’t ask for it” Ria said and Damien shrugged.“Just because someone doesn’t ask for help doesn’t mean that they don’t need it. Somet
