“Hey Sarah,” Matthew walked up to her seat, calling her as he stopped in front of her.

“Hi,”

Sarah replied bluntly, not paying him any look.

She was with one girl, probably her friend, but Matthew had never seen the both of them together once.

“Can I talk to her alone for a while?” Matthew said, looking at her friend and smiling awkwardly at her.

The blonde girl eyed him distastefully before turning to look at Sarah, who gave her the cue to leave.

“Three minutes,” she said to him and walked away.

Matthew nodded at her and pulled a chair closer to himself, taking his seat before facing Sarah.

“I…I’ve not seen her here.” He started.

“She’s not in this class,” Sarah retorted, packing her books into her bag without looking at Matthew.

“Oh… okay.” He replied.

The both of them sat in awkward silence after, Matthew watching as she packed her books, and as she zipped up her bag, his mouth suddenly started working again.

“I..want to apologize for what happened this afternoon. I didn’t mean it i

    Elena got home with her eyes red and puffy, walking straight to her bedroom and banging the door closed. Her eyes itched at the sight in front of her, make ups on the bed, some of her underwear also on it and some other things. She had left the house on a happy feeling this morning and didn’t expect half of everything to happen. Cut it; she didn’t expect even one heck of it to happen.Who knew Sarah would decide to voice out her stupid opinion? Who knew Matthew would yell at her? Who knew she would come home hungry and looking like a ghost? She didn’t even know she would start to think she might have feelings for Matthew this same day?“Ahhhh!”She yelled out, her head raising sounds of alarm in her head.She had come home with the bus today, avoided all interactions with everyone and anyone and stayed on her own. Thank God for her mum forcing on her a hoodie this morning because of her little skirt; she wouldn’t have been able to get through the bus without anyone noticing how red he

    “Would you like to go first, or you’ll want me to go first?” Silver said, standing up from the couch and walking away.Elena just laid there, her thoughts jumbled with her brain not thinking straight. She closed her eyes, her arms on her chest as she tried to let go of everything. She didn’t want to talk about Matthew with Silver, and she had just said that for a reason for coming to her place.“Do you want yogurts or anything?” Silver yelled out from the kitchen.“And some biscuits, yes!” Elena retorted, raising her voice a bit without opening her eyes.She would let silver talk, tell her about what she had to, and free herself from everything. Matthew wasn’t the only friend she had, and maybe it was time she got close to all her other friends and let him live the best of his love life.She opened her eyes as she heard silvers footsteps, sitting up immediately with her back straight and watching her friend till she set the tray on the table.“Thanks,” she said, picking up one of the

    “Wakey, Wakey.” Clara hummed as she entered Elena’s room, tapping her legs and shaking her awake.“In the past days, you’ve been waking up so early I knew it would come down to this. Wake up, Elena; you’ll be late for school.” She added.Elena shifted in her bed, muttering incoherent words that meant she wanted to be left alone.“Matthew is already downstairs and he’s waiting for you.”The sleep in her eyes vanished immediately, seating up all of a sudden and coming to meet her mum’s eyes.“What!” She exclaimed, rubbing her eyes with her hand.Clara stared at her daughter and eyed her. She made a loud hiss before turning towards the door.“Matthew is not here. So get up and dress up before you get late. Silver called me, she’ll be here anytime from now.” She added and walked out.Elena fell back to the bed, heaving out an exhausted sigh for someone that just woke up.“Ahhhh!” She breathed out, sitting up and darting her eyes across the room.Her feet touched the ground, having another

    She climbed out of Silver’s car, shutting the door with her eyes fixed on a particular spot. It was Matthew’s car and Sarah was stepping out of his passenger seat with smiles on her face. Elena clenched her jaw, feeling irritated and disgusted at her act. She was just trying to go to bed with him; why pretend about it?The thought of it and the way she felt as she saw them together made her remember one of the blog posts she saw while doing her search. ‘you’ll feel jealous and irritated when you see them with another person, especially if it’s with your gender and they’re laughing and acting cute together.’“Elena..” Silver called out as she saw her bouncing off, not even waiting for her or replying to her.Her eyes darted across the parking lot, trying to find out what could have triggered her after the smile she had managed to put on her face. At the sight of Matthew and his new girl, she sighed heavily, confirming where the problem was coming from.“They should just kiss and make u

    “Where have you been?” Sarah asked Matthew as he placed his tray beside her, took his seat, and dropped his bag to the floor.“Went to the restroom.” He replied curtly.Sarah noticed something was wrong with him, and did not bother to press it again. She started a conversation with one of his friends but her mind was still on whatever was going on with him. It couldn’t be about Elena, they had both sorted that out and decided not to bring it up again. He told her while they were coming to school this morning that he'd like to get to know her more, and it was the best she had ever received in her entire life.Even thinking about it and replaying his exact words in her brain made a smile bloom on her face. She had liked him since the first year of school, always checking him out, wanting to get closer to him and be his friend. But everytime she tried to get closer to him, she was always there. She was a late bloomer, resumed later than the rest of them but he was her first friend. They

    “Thank you so much for taking care of her.” Clara, Elena’s mom, said as the nurse helped her with Elena inside the car. “You’re welcome. Just keep her warm and check on her from time to time.” The nurse said, bowing to her and offering a small smile before walking back inside the school. They had called her from her office to tell her something was wrong and she had to rush here at the last minute. She was met with a pale daughter who was deep in her sleep and her hand clutching her lower stomach. She was given the scare of her life until the nurse said she had gotten better. She knew her daughter was one with extreme period pains, and they’d complained at the hospital but were always told it was nothing serious, but she had never gotten to this extent before. “Mrs Sergio,” she heard the principal call out to her. His voice was distinct, and it made her smile. Tucking her hair at the back of her hair, she turned to face him, her fac

    After 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.”

    “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

    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.

    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
