2024-10-29 19:42:56After an hour of napping in the bathroom, she finally came out of it. She was met with a well-laid bed with a brown bedspread and a tampon with new pants.
“You’re the best mum.” She muttered to herself, walking closer to the bed also to meet a fresh set of pajamas on it.Wearing them slowly as she can, she spent another thirty minutes dressing up, blow drying her hair and sitting in front of her mirror, checking her reflection. She picked up the eyeliner and was just about to line her eyes when the door opened, turning to look at her mum who had a distraught look on her face,“What are you trying to do?” She said to her, her brows deepening on her face.“Nothing.” Elena replied, covering the lid slowly and putting it back in its place.Clara eyed her before walking inside, in her hand a tray of hot foods for her girl. She placed it in front of her, placing her hand on her hips after as she stared at Elena.“Start eating.”Related chapters

“A guy?” The lady replied with a cocked brow, straightening the crease on the bed.“Yeah. A bit tall, kind of…“Apart from the female friend that brought you here and your mum checking out after, I’m sorry, but no one came to check on you after that.” She said, looking up at Elena again.“I’m sorry, but is there a problem?” She questioned.“No! Not at all. I’m just curious about it. Thanks.” Elena said, stretching her lips into a thin smile before turning towards the door.Her grip tightened against the arm of her bag, and a different kind of pain spread through her body. She closed the door quietly, walking some inches away before leaning on the wall. What had she expected? That he was going to come and check on her?“Lol.” She scoffed out, closing her eyes to stop the tears that were threatening to spill out of her eyes.She sniffed in, clenching her jaw and unclenching it before opening her eyes. She gasped out in shock as her eyes came to meet a particular one.“You look like a gh

“Sheeesh. You guys should relax.” He added before chuckling, turning to his food and digging back into it.“You guys look like you’ve been caught with something bad and will faint anytime from now on.”The bell rang instantly, and Matthew stood up, picked up his bag, and walked off.“Hey.”He heard them call out to him but decided not to answer.He proceeded to his locker to exchange the book in his bags, his mind going back to what his idiot friend might have want to say. He knew there was something, and he might have just stopped because he wanted to.He left to the class, shaking his head as he walked away. Too many things have been on his mind lately, and he was not even getting the hang of it again. He needed a good sleep or nap.Like always, the first place his eyes went to as he entered the class was Elena’s seat, his brows raised as he saw her talking to the new girl.“Thanks.” Elena said to the girl as she handed her a burger, throwing her a smile before unwrapping it.“It’s

Elena was in bed after a long school day, coming home to eat and settling down to do her assignments. She didn’t come home with the school bus because her new friend had a car and wanted to drop her off. She laid down with her back, turning her head to the ceiling and staring at it. She was still in awe about the new girl that she had stepped things up with that easily. Sighing as her chest fell, she closed her eyes briefly before opening them again. Apart from her talking too much, she was so full of energy, which Elena didn’t understand. She also had Energy in her if she was dealing with Matthew, but apart from that, there was nothing in her again. A notification popped on her phone, causing her to shift on the bed and pick it up. Her face scrunched into a frown as she saw a new number on it, her mind already taking a guess on who it could be. “Hi, friend,” the number texted her. She decided not to open the message, wanting to close the phon

“I’m sorry if it shocked you, but if you had picked up your call, I would have told you.”“And don’t you have any other friends you can spend the night with?” Elena questioned her.Gaby sighed as she picked up her bag, throwing it on Elena, which unbalanced her feet.“Next time, you’ll invite someone in before asking all kinds of questions,” Gaby said, pushing her aside and stepping into the house.There was a look of surprise on her face; the house was moderately furnished, cozy, and warm. She heaved a deep sigh, inhaling its delicious scent before finding her way to the living room.“I hate the day I met you,” Elena muttered under her breath and carried the bag, slamming the door close before dumping it on the floor.She walked to the living room and sat opposite Gaby, their eyes boring holes into each other’s as they stared.“You can’t stay here. I did not discuss anything like this with my mom before, and it would be a surprise. Just go home, and let’s plan this another day.” Elen

Clara had no problem when she saw a young girl she hadn’t met before in their house, for one thing, she was so happy Elena was finally making friends and having sleepovers in the place. “I’m Gaby,” the girl had greeted her so curtly, her cheeks filled with happiness. “I’m going to leave you to catch up and talk to each other. I have something to do upstairs.” She smiled back at her, exchanging hugs with her daughter's friend and rushing to her room. Elena was not in any way surprised by her mother's action. She knew she wouldn’t complain right from time, but she hadn’t expected her to be so shameless with it. “Your mom is so nice. Didn’t you say she was going to complain about it,” Gaby said snuggly, returning to the chair and lying down. “And she didn’t even bother to see me.” Silver added. Elena glanced at Silver, who was having a great time with Gaby and asking questions about her. How did she get along with everyone, ev

Elena gulped down, removing her hand away from silver’s and darting her eyes away from her.“It’s very obvious something is wrong. So tell me, what’s wrong?” She heard her repeat it.Elena decided not to reply, standing up from the bed, her hand moving to her hair and ruffling it.“I’ll take a shower. I feel so disgusted with myself now.” She muttered and hastily walked away.Silver sighed as she heard the bathroom door close, falling to the bed as her chest fell. Something was wrong, and it bothered her so much. They were friends, Besties that couldn’t do without each other, and now they did not even see eye to eye. It was the first time she had seen a fight between the both of them.“You know,” she heard someone say and jumped up from the bed immediately, widening her eyes in shock.Her pupils constricted as she saw it was Gaby, falling back to the bed and folding her hand to her stomach.“How long have you been there?”“Don’t worry. I don’t hold grudges.” Gaby replied, approaching

Elena clenched her jaw, taking her gaze away from him before he could see her and starting her food. Her mind and brain were now in disarray, and the thoughts she had once tucked into a part of herself were now roaming freely in her head again.“Do you want us to leave?” Silver asked.“No! No!” Elena said, shaking her head negatively and continuing with her food.“Anyone wants to go to that new store they just opened down the road? I heard they’re on discount prices. We should eat fast and go there.`` Gaby said, taking her fries and dipping them in the ketchup.“I’m in.” Silver responded.Elena clenched her jaw, trying her best to keep her composure. He was doing fine, and she was doing fine too. Why was she allowing herself to be affected by him and his actions?She had put too much in her mouth and immediately choked on one of the things she was eating,“Take it easy. Take it easy.” Silver said, moving her chair towards her and patting her back.She opened her juice, taking a huge g

“Did you see the look on her face? I tell you, everything about that girl is trouble!” Gaby said, her face full of smiles, walking between Elena and Silver.“She purposely came to the table, thinking we’ll talk to her. She’s a joke.” Silver added, closing the door of the car as they walked towards the entrance of the store.“Hmm,” Elena hummed, not saying more than that.Silver and Gaby looked at each other for a while, their heads turning towards Elena simultaneously.“You can’t keep making her trample on you. Why do you allow her to talk anyhow to you?” Gaby was the first to talk.Elena looked at her, her lips curling into a grin before drifting to a smirk. “She can’t bully me or trample on me. She knows her limit.” She said to them, taking some steps away from them.They entered the mall, their eyes widening at how full it was.“Elena,” Silver muttered close to her ears.“This is huge, Gaby! How did you know all of these?” Elena found herself saying, thought of Sarah and Matthew of

He turned off the car and sighed.“Are you that anxious to meet my mom?” Dani asked as Rai burst into laughter.“I’m not anxious just careful” Damien replied with a smile as they got out of the car.“Careful my feet” Dani sneered as she burst into laughter. Ria smiled at Damien as she took his hand.“Don’t mind Dani, my mom is not that scary” Ria said and Damien laughed.“I know right,” Damien said as they walked into the house.“Mom, good evening,” Ria said as she pecked her home.“I see you brought a friend,” Mrs. Mahmata asked with a small smile.“Yes,” Ria said with a smile.“Mom, this is my boyfriend, Damien.

Ria twirled her pen as she turned to Damien “I was waiting for you to come back that’s why I haven’t filled out my application yet” Ria confessed.“Jason told me you hadn’t so I didn’t even collect my form yet,” Damien said and Ria smiled.“We think alike too much” Ria cooed and Damien pecked her before tapping her nose.“So which uni are you doing?” Damien asked and Ria shrugged.“I was about to ask you” Ria replied and Damien wriggled his eyebrows at Ria.“I’ll go anywhere you go” Damien replied and Ria chuckled as she opened her phone and scrolled through the list of universities.“What do you think about TAS?” Ria asked and Damien shrugged his shoulders.“Anywhere you want to go baby” Damien replied as Ria shook her head.“Bristol Univeristy then,” Ria said and Damien shrugged. They both brought out their forms and started filling them out. Damien filled his form with his right hand as his hands found Ria’s skirt.

Ria frowned upon seeing Zara and Penny.“How shameless will you become? You stepped down from being the captain as if you wouldn’t do anything. What the hell did you tell the cheerleaders?” Zara asked as Ria slowly rose to her feet.“Shameless?” Ria asked as she stepped out of her seat.“If anyone should be asked who is shameless I think it should be the both of you. I thought you guys were my friends yet all along I was called a snake and a viper by my friends. I gave everything and did all a friend does and gives to her friend as a friend, I helped you every way I could but what did you guys do? You stabbed me in the back neatly” Ria said as she tu

Ria was the first to get to school the next day. She smiled sweetly at Ava who started clicking pictures of her immediately.“Girl you are glowing” Ava exclaimed and Ria laughed.“Is it because he asked you to marry him yesterday?” Ava asked with a smile and Ria’s smile grew wider.“Maybe, who knows?” Ria asked as they sat down.“Where’s Janet?” Ria asked as Ava scoffed.“She’s like you. if you can’t find her, you won’t see Jason” Ava replied and Ria laughed.Ria raised her head when she saw a shadow fall over her and she snickered seeing Gabriel. As Ria had said, his popularity had hit rock bottom after that day, his friends stopped talking to him, and he was also benched by the soccer team.

Ria held Damien’s hand as they walked out of the old house. Ria took one last look at the house as they walked outside the house. Ria looked around and was surprised at the number of black cars in front of them.She easily recognized the dragon tattoo on the cars as the same one on Damien’s stomach. She allowed Damien to pull her towards one of the cars and the window was slowly wounded down.“Is it all taken care of?” a voice asked in the car and Damien nodded.“Yes, boss” Damien replied.“Hmmmmm,” the voice said.“Thanks, boss” Damien said his voice solemn.“Take care of yourself, Damien,” the voice said as the glass went up and the cars sped out of sight.“Who were those?” Ria asked and Damien smiled at her.“People you don’t need to pay attention to,” Damien said as he led Ria to the car and he drove off. Damien couldn’t express how he was feeling. He didn’t feel free, he was just calm and he tightened his grip on Ria’s hands as he drove toward his apartment.He had her beside him

Damien rubbed Ria’s back comfortingly as he pulled her along and walked after the burly men. Ria watched as they led them to another part of the fighting ring.The area was surprisingly well-lighted and bright. There were rows of burly men with weapons making Ria latch herself to Damien.“He’s inside,” One of them said as Damien pushed the door opened and stepped inside the room.It was a large spacious office and there was a fan rolling as Damien and Ria stepped into the room. Three men were seated on the sofa in the middle of the office.“Damien, have your seat,” one of them said with a smile and Damien sat down and pulled Ria with him.“Mr. Lee, I have fulfilled our part of the agreement. I have as well also repaid my father’s debt. Isn’t it time to let me go?” Damien asked calmly as one of the men laughed.“It’s hard to let one of our strongest fighters go just like that,” he said and Ria frowned as she looked at the man disgustingly.“Just like that?

Ria watched calmly as Damien wore his gloves. She had watched Damien fight two times after the first time he brought her to the underground ring and she knew how good he was. But considering that after today he wasn’t going to be fighting again; Ria felt weird about it.She knew these people weren’t going to let him go just like that but Damien had assured her that he was going to be fine so she couldn’t do anything about it. She could only pray in her mind.“Don’t look like that, I’ll really be fine” Damien said and Ria nodded as she dropped a small peck on his lips.Damien tapped her nose as they walked out of the room. Everyone was yelling at top of their voices. He walked into the ring and raised his hands at the referee who checked him and Damien turned to his opponent. It was a young man who was a few years older than him. Merely looking at him, Damien knew he was the real deal. He chuckled lightly; these people had finally pushed him to the wall.He walked at Ria who was lookin
