Days later.On a Saturday.
Malisa's POV.It's been about a week since I began living in an unfamiliar place though it's becoming familiar.I have gotten a lot closer to little Mary and for now, we are practically almost biological sisters.
Sometimes I wonder if she's twelve years old because she's very mature and intelligent I guess it's because she has a very high IQ.
As today was a Saturday, We had nothing much to do so we just decided to spend the day chatting and so on.
***After Breakfast, Malisa and Mary were sitting in Mary's room and talking about random stuff.
" Umm. Mary. " " Yes, Sis? " The young girl raised her head." Doesn't your brother come home at all? It's been a week and I haven't seen him at all. " " Oh that. My brother comes home every day but he comes home very late in the night and leaves very eRelated chapters

Who made her this angry? ' I couldn't help but wonder. I had always known Mary to be a very calm girl so well...She slept next to me on the bed and surprisingly she fell asleep the minute her head hit the cushion.It seemed like she had been asleep before but woke up all of a sudden to what I don't know... I also fell asleep not too long after she did and woke up to the ringing of my alarm clock. I at first wanted to apologize for disturbing her sleep but she surprisingly smiled at me, " Why do you set your alarm clock for 6 am? " She asked me. " Well, it's for my morning

Epilogue. * People who don't chase their dreams never get to live them. *****Five months later... It was February 14 known all over the globe to be a day of love... And it's grandly celebrated in Paris which is known to be the city of love... Due to this, all the students in the music department in the college including, Malisa and Franchine were in school recording a love song for the day... The song was titled, Summer love... Since Malisa had a very beautiful and Angelic voice, she was in charge of singing the stanzas while the others sang the chorus with her.... They did this for some hours before they were dismissed when the music instructor was finally satisfied with the piece... They had produced. As their car was parked outside the campus, Malisa and Franchine had to walk through the campus. Due to this they were able to watch the grand valentine day ceremony in their college...

Malisa and Franchine were discussing at the school canteen during free periods." So you began your training in the military at age 15? " Malisa asked, '' Franchine who was munching on some chips in front of her... " No... 14. I graduated highschool at age fourteen so I enrolled into the military that year too.. " " Wow. Really? " " Yep. So I served there for like 7 years before then traveling to Beijing where I practiced martial arts for 3 years before coming back earlier this year. " " Oh my! So you are 24? " Malisa inquired with a shocked expression." Yep... Do I look that young? " She smiled... " Of course you do. I thought you were nineteen or twenty... " Malisa said truthfully... " Well... I guess I have got a nice body build then... " " Yeah... So what's your plan now? " " Nothing much... Just studying music

Franchine was responsible for driving Malisa home. The two young ladies were on their way to the car when their road was blocked all of a sudden by some ladies and men. Malisa was indeed surprised at this... She somehow had expected a confrontation but not on the first day... Like today! At least they should be allowed to breathe freely before confronting them... Malisa and Franchine both paused in their steps simultaneously as they awaited the other party's reaction. The other party consisted of three ladies and a man all dressed alike.It goes without saying that there were cult members. And, Malisa wondered what they have got to do with them. Since they never showed signs of being interested in the cult in the first place.So why...Franchine on the other hand wasn't a bit surprised at their confro

Just like her. Those she recognized as black Americans. There were also many Indians and Chinese.There were practically people from different continents...So she didn't feel any awkwardness as she had expected she would feel. Wait, could it be possible that Aiden knew about this fact and that's why he chose this college especially for her and also assured her that she'll be fine. Malisa couldn't help smiling at this thought... She often wondered how caring and loving he could be to her... While all the new students sat in the registration hall waiting for the vice Chancellor of the school to address them...Malisa felt a presence beside her, looking up she saw a young looking lady around her age or above.

She became confident once again and lifted the awards up in the air. " I did it! " Only those who knew of her story would be able to understand the deeper meaning behind her words... Though some other people could feel the intense emotions in those three lettered words too... " Congratulations, Miss Bree... " Another Judge congratulated her too with a smile... " Thanks...

So how is it possible that there's one going on without her knowledge?Well... I guess she had forgotten that she can only know about something that Aiden wanted her to. If he didn't want her to know then there's no way she would. " So what do you think of my surprise? " Aiden's voice Interrupted her from her thoughts. " It's not bad. " She smiled... " I'll take that as a compliment then... " He said parking the car in the parking lot. Just before Malisa could open the door on her side, he had already turned over and helped her to... " Let me.

Malisa, who was wearing a simple flare gown and sandals, walked ahead of Aiden to the car.Unlike other days, Aiden was putting on something more casual... Just a simple Chelsea shirt and pants... His hair was combed very nicely making him look very young and dashing... He didn't look like the usual way he does today.Rather he looked like a college student who was going out on a date. Though the aura of the Presidency was still there... Well... It's not like he could let go of it just because he wanted to anyways... The duo stopped in front of a blue Jeep... Aiden had decided that he was going to take it out that day as it's been a while since he last took the vehicle out for a ride... " The car looks very new Indeed.
