My Best Friend : He's the one I have Sixteen
>* Treasure every moment. *****Flash back ( 2 )The duo had just finished doing the dishes and were about heading out to the public library to study for their upcoming exams when Nanny's voice rang from behind them. “ Let's watch a movie tonight, what do you guys say? ”Mira was the first to react, “ Like a movie night? ” She'd always been a huge fan of movies and never let any chance to view a good one slide. “ Yup. ”“ I'd love that. ” she grinned widely, staring at her Bestie. “ What do you say, Jose? ”Seeing the joy brimming in her orbs, Joseph couldn't bring himself to say no, “ It's a good idea. ”“ Cool, so be prepared. We are going to be having a movie night by 7pm. ” Nanny said as she headed to her room.“ Okay, Na. ”The duo biked to the public library which was a twenty minute ride, from the house. The library was almost filled up, despite it just being eight in the morning on a weekend. It really seemed like there were others who were super excited to read as t

> * Make every second of your life count. * *** Flash back ( 3 ) Two years later, “ Jose, do you understand the concept behind, matrix? ” Mira inquired during their now usual late night study. They were both seated in front of the study table, side by side. “ I do. Do you need any help with it? ” He said, turning to face her. “ I do. We were taught earlier by Mrs Crawford, but I wasn't able to catch up with her explanations at some point. ” she said. “ Makes me wonder what you were thinking about. ” He said mischievously. “ That's none of your business. ” Even as she said that, a faint blush made its way to her cheeks. “ Oh wow, my Bestie has caught feelings for someone. ” he stood up and crouched in front of her. “ So tell me, who's he? ” “ Well… ” Though she was fifteen years old, Miranda still found it a bit weird talking to someone about her feelings. “ I'm waiting. ” he made a face, causing her to chuckle. “ It's Fredrick Everest. ” she replied at long

> * Do the right thing even when nobody knows you are doing the right thing. ---- Oprah Winfrey. * **** ------- Mira ------- The ache in my heart grew as the memories swirled in my head and soon my eyes welled up with hot tears. The memories were just so many. Movie nights, book hauls, going hiking, picnics, beach parties, etc. Jose was a big part of my pre teen and teenage years, he holds a big part of my life and memories. He was my backbone, my confidant, my best friend. He was everything I could ever dream of. My life started making sense when I met Jose. And now? Breaking up hurts. And it especially sucks when you are required to let go of someone you love and care about so much. Someone who'd always been there for you. Someone who had filled up those empty spaces of your heart. Someone you've always believed you'll be together forever. It hurts so much that nothing could be compared to it. Why does life have to be so cruel to me? Why do I always

> * For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. This law is so true in our life's. — Oprah Winfrey * **** ------ Mira ----- Monday. I resume back to school today and if one thing, it's not been something I've been looking forward to. I love school, yeah. But it's a different thing when I have to resume back to school after a long week suspension, especially when my Best friend or should I say, ex?was suspended for two weeks, meaning? I'll have to face the entire school on my own for the next one week. The truth is, I'd never get used to this, any of this and I admit, the mere thought of it sucks. I know I'm not meant to feel guilty since I'm practically innocent, but knowing how much Jose loves school and now is forced to stay absent from it for two whole weeks makes me feel guilty. It would have been easier for me to prove my innocence if the situation had been different, and by different I mean, if Jose had trusted me more. But there's definitely

> * To be an anomaly, you have to act like one. * **** * Happy 20 chapters, guys! * ------ Mira. ------- Detention was definitely not something loved by a lot of people, me included. The thought of being locked in a room alone frightens me a whole lot. It would have been better if I was in my room all day, than in a school library which feels kind of creepy being left alone in it. The library was very big, big enough to accommodate two hundred readers comfortably. It had ten long rows of shelves in total filled with different books ranging from Historical fiction to fantasy romance and academic books. I'd always loved it, yeah, as the peace and quietness fits my spirit a lot but I definitely do not like it alone here. “ You know one thing we have in common, Miranda? ” Jose's voice rang in my head again as memories of our times together in this library flashed through my mind. “ What? ” “ You love books as much as I do. ” Indeed, I still haven't been able to

> * You are the creator of your own destiny. * **** ----- Mira. ------ Friday, It's the final day of my detention and I couldn't be happier, seeing how much I have achieved. I've been able to not only cover lots of topics in my core subjects, but I've also been able to get several decent night's sleep. I couldn't evade the sadness that befell me whenever I thought of how much I'd missed for being absent from classes for almost two weeks, but on a second note. I couldn't actually do anything to change that, can I? With that in mind I packed my belongings and headed outside the library. I'd just stepped out when the guard approached me with a smile. “ You are really a strong girl and I'm super proud of how hardworking and disciplined you are. Keep working on it, girl. The sky is your starting point. ” I'd just started to say, “ Thank you. ” when he simply patted my shoulders and disappeared. I had a thousand and one thoughts going through my head as I walked along the sc

>* It's the passion inside you that keeps you going. *------- Joseph. --------Saturday,Though it's still very early, I'd started making preparations for my girlfriend's arrival, later today. I'd been super ecstatic when she mentioned that she'd love to pay me a visit, it was something I was expecting given how private and closed she was. And sometimes her actions made me wonder if what she felt for me was as deep as my feelings for her, but her words proved so, didn't it?It still feels surreal that the one and only Queen Bee of our prestigious highschool is my girlfriend, it's like a dream come true and I'd I'll never cease being grateful to have her in my life. If one thing, I wish I always find reasons to be grateful and always remain happy and ecstatic. I changed into matching, Jumper and pants after taking a shower. They were both blue, which was Vera's favorite color. I'd intentional picked that color to surprise her. I just hope she notices though and everything go

> * Courage is the ability to go from failure to failure without losing enthusiasm. * **** ------ Mira. ------ Though I'd been missing Jose a whole lot, I definitely wasn't expecting to see him at the restaurant earlier. It honestly took a lot of self control and maturity to actually act professional around him, given how close and playful we once were. Just when I thought it was all over, I had to slip! Gosh! I'm glad he caught me just in time, before I could embarrass myself in front of the other customers. His fast reflexes saved the day and am super grateful for that. I headed back to the orphanage as soon as my shift ended three hours later. I'm glad I had a short shift today as I was becoming too exhausted to stand. I took a quick shower after getting back to my room and changed into my pink pajamas, which were my favorite given how comfy they were. I grabbed my cell from the nightstand and turned it on. I logged into my social media account as soon as i

* Love is life. *****" They had always thought you guys were dating. ” Evie's words caught Mira's attention. She retracted her gaze from the ornamental plants ahead of her and stared at Evelyn.They were presently at a chicken restaurant a few blocks from their university. " I mean our schoolmates at high school. "" Oh. " Mira relaxed, taking a long sip of her yogurt." But we weren't. "" It seemed like it as you both were very close, you could be likened to siblings. "" Yeah. " Mira couldn't help smiling as a memory dropped in her mind. *Flashback*" Jose, I always wanted a brother. An elder brother to be precise but I never got one and it sucked. " Fourteen years old Mira complained to her Best friend as they both laid on the grass." But now you've got one. " Unlike what she was expecting, a smile and those simple words was what she got in response." What do you mean? " She stared at him in confusion." I'll be your brother. " He grinned, saying the words. " Baby sis."" Th

>* Love is the most beautiful thing on Earth; It can make or mar a person. *****" Jose? " Mira called out after several minutes of simply resting in his embrace, the latter had thought she'd fallen asleep until she spoke. " Um?" " What do you love most about me? Like what made you fall in love with me? " His hand which was caressing her hair, paused hearing her question. " Mira... " Joseph detached himself from her embrace, held up her chins and stared straight into her eyes." The first day I met you; I fell in love with your innocence and cuteness. Then, I fell in love with how you express yourself and finally how you love. "" How do I love? ” She stared at him inquisitively. " Yeah. The way you love is remarkable. I can never forget the day I got injured on the football field. The care and concern I saw in your eyes that day made me forget about my pain. For a moment, it felt like you were the one injured and not me and it's really noteworthy. ""So you love how I love

* Love covers all. *****Evie quietly left the room to give the duo some private space. Though, Joseph hid himself well, call it a woman's instinct but she sensed his presence.She nodded at Him giving him the signal he needed. Joseph advanced slowly to where Mira had her head bowed, eyes filled to the brim with tears. " Mira... " He called out to her slowly as he waited for her to raise her head, it took longer than he expected and when she finally did. He gasped in shock at how red her eyes were. " Babe... " He felt his heart being pricked by a knife. " Hey... " Seeing her non response, he wrapped her in a bear hug. In turn, Mira hugged him tightly." I love you, Miranda. " Perhaps those words were what she had been waiting for all along as she broke down as soon as she heard them. Love, She heard it covers everything. The thirteenth chapter in the book of the first Corinthians explained it so well, as it said, " If I could speak all the languages of earth and of angels, bu

>* True friends are those that never leave. *****Grayson Miller did lay low, just as his Grandfather had advised. Though he almost couldn't control himself whenever he saw Joseph and Miranda together. Oftentimes, it hurt so much that he had to push the wall to calm himself down. As much as he wanted to do something, anything to make himself feel better he couldn't.He'd promised his Gramps and definitely wouldn't let him down even if it meant him having to endure the pain of a bruised ego.****On a weekend, The trio were crashing at Joseph's home to escape from the hustle and bustle of their campus. Mira was lying in bed, while Evie browsed through social media on her phone." Evie, I have been bothered lately. " Mira said all of a sudden as she opened her eyes slowly. " Oh? What's up? " Evie dropped her cell phone and sat up straight in front of her. " Actually, I have been thinking. "" About what? "" What if I am actually wasting my youthful years by being so dedi

>“ When God is everything you've got. You've got all you need. ”**** On her way to her apartment, Mira had a foreboding that something wasn't right.So instead of going to her apartment, she headed over to Joseph's office in her car. While in the car, she gave Evie a call and told her about the change of plans. “ Is everything ok, Bestie? ” Hearing the concern in her tone, Mira was touched. She wondered what goodness she had done, for her to be rewarded with a Bestie like Eveyln. “ I am fine. And everything's fine. '' Mira paused. “ I'll tell you all about it later, Kay? '' Evie let out a sigh. “ Okay then. Take care. ”“ Thanks. ” Mira hung up with a smile, placing her phone in the phone stand, she started the car. She arrived at Joseph's office just in time to see the staff leaving. They all gave her car weird stares. Ignoring them, she wore her shades to cover up her exhausted eyes. All she wanted at that moment was to find a place to lay down, but she couldn't

>“ God will never leave you, nor forsake you. ” *****Days passed and the trio had slowly been able to blend in with their life on campus.Though most times, their lectures go on for hours, leaving them tired and exhausted. Despite that, they all made time for one other, making them the envy of them all. On this particular day,Mira had just finished a four hour lecture and was completely exhausted when Serra approached her. “ Hey. ” she smiled at her, strapping her bag carefully on her back. “ Hi. ” Though her greeting was normal, Mira noticed that the latter was checking her out. “ Are you really living off, Joseph? ” Mira paused and then stared at her. “ Who told you that? ” Serra folded her arms around her chest proudly like the peacock she was. “ It's no longer a secret, is it? ” ( A/N : Should I name her Miss Peacock instead, guys? LoL. )Receiving no response from Mira, she continued. “ Joseph is too good for you and you know that. ” her words were meant to hu

>* God knows you better than you know yourself. ****First day on campus.“ Evie. ” Mira called out whilst looking out of the window at the fast moving vehicles which she was fascinated by.The atmosphere was pretty cool and comfortable, the pretty ornamental plants by the roadsides reminded Mira of how promising the day would be. “ Yes, Mira? '' Evie was looking at the other side of the window, unlike Mira she wasn't distracted by the cars but by the billboards on the highways.One of them ‘said’ something which caught her attention. “ Love never dies. ”But if that's really true, why then does it feel like the love between her and her partner is diminishing as the day goes by? He said he loved her right?He promised to keep holding her hands till the end of time, right? So what changed? Was it the passage of time?Or the absence of intimacy? “ Do you believe God speaks to us through the atmosphere? ” Mira's words caught her attention.“ What? ” Evie stared at her in sho

> * Forgiveness sets you free. *****The large courtroom was partly filled that Friday morning. The atmosphere was surprisingly warm, despite the gloominess in the room.A sign hung on the outside wall which said, “ Court in session. ”Mira sat beside Joseph looking super pretty in a yellow sun dress. It was summer anyways and the dress went well with the occasion. She was nervous, despite the fact that she strove hard not to show. “ It's going to be okay, Babe. ” Joseph squeezed her hands as a way to reassure her. Mira smiled softly.She didn't know how she was going to react, seeing the murderers of her parents standing right in front of her, even after playing the scene a dozen times in her mind… She still felt nervous as the moment drew near.And it eventually did, involuntarily she sucked in a deep breath, leaving her throat dry and bare as she watched the duo being brought to the stands.Her eyes met with Henry's then Nicole's, they averted their gaze almost immedi

> * Life is unfair, but God is fair. ***** The duo remained in the same position in silence for the next few minutes until the clock struck 12. “ Mira… ” he called out to her and when she raised up her head, his heart broke, it felt like it was pricked by a thousand knives. Her face was flushed and tear stained, her beautiful emerald eyes were red with unshed tears. “ You okay? ” Though the question sounded stupid, when obviously she wasn't, yet he felt compelled to ask and so he did. “ Mmm. ” came her short answer. “ I think you should take a shower. ” he tried maintaining eye contact with her. “ Mmm. ” she nodded before standing up and walking towards the bathroom and straight into the shower. In the shower…As the droplets of water washed through her hair, then her body.Mira felt all the pain, tears and hurt wash away and it felt weird.She wanted so badly to hold on to them, so she could seek vengeance for her parents…But she couldn't.“ I am the God that heale
