SILENT THOUGHTS Episode 9
You can guess...I've been avoiding Adrian ever since, I didn't even go home with them, and that was possible because I skip swimming training and when I got home, I was gloomy as hell, I didn't say much, my mom was starting to suspect something was wrong but I just can't hide it."I'll skip dinner" I announced after I helped set the table and before entering my room, that confirmed something was really wrong, because I never skip meals, I was reading when mom came by."Adrian wants to see you" she said waiting for my reply, she had wanted to know what the problem was and she was guessing it must have been Adrian so whatever my reply is determined if her hunch was right, but I don't care if she knows or not, I don't feel like seeing Adrian, not now."I'm busy" I said as I turn back to my book"You're sure you don't wanna see him? She asked again to be precise."Yes mom" I confirmed and sh

Mom's store is always open even on Sundays but she didn't stay long on Sunday though, we were coming back from the store on Sunday when we met Adrian coming out from our compound, I got down from the car carrying groceries we bought when I saw him."Adrian!" My mom called out excitement."Hi Mrs Howard" he greeted with a wry smile."Hello there, how are you?" my mom cheerfully asked."I'm fine Mrs Howard , and how are you? He asked back warmly."Except from Natalie's trouble I'm good" she said winking at me."Mom!" I called out annoyed.

Helping my mom serve dinner made her notice it all, but she didn't want to bring the topic while dad was present so, she waited until dinner was over."What's up with you?" my mom asked as she entered my room while I wasdoing my homework."Nothing" I said despite I couldn't help smiling."Look here young lady, I've known you since birth so I can tell difference between you being normal and over cheerful" My mom gave me a warning glare."Am I been over cheerful?" I asked with uncertainty written all over my face."Come on Natalie, what's with you?" My mom asked with a silly smirk but she sounded desperate."You don't give up, do you?" I asked hearing how determined she is from her thoughts."Yeah" she admitted quite confidently."Okay mom...you won" I said standing from my reading table to my bed where she coul

"How did you do that?" I asked Adrian as we got down from the bus. " I...I...I don't know, I...just um, it just happened" He stuttered shyly."Oh wow...that was so cool" I said and he blushed, that made me laugh."Goodnight" I said as after getting to the front of my house. "yeah...yeah...sure, good night" He said incoherently and was about heading home when I called him back. "Adrian?" I called and he looked back but met I met him with a kiss, his mind was blank at first, then slowly I slowly to get them. 'I was awaiting that' I laughed to his lips on that."What?" He asked on letting him go."Nothing" I said as I ran inside totally flushed. ***That was the last time Adrian showed weakness, ever since then he completely had his phobia under control and that was a little bit tiring, he started taking us in c

"Dinner's ready" My mom announced advancing towards my door then she opened up and peep."Yes mom" I replied and I could hear thoughts, she was curious of what's going on on, briefly scanning us she asked within her thoughts, what was going on with her face narrowed in question, I just smiled assuring her everything was fine. Then she left, which after then I stood there watching Adrian."It's impossible isn't it?" Adrian asked with a snicker."Um...I-" I tried to talk but the words were caught in my throat."It's impossible, though it felt kinda strange, let's go, you won't want your mom coming back again, and....I'm sorry, for...I mean Sandra" Adrian apologized moving closer, hands on my waist and gaze fixed on me with a smile plastered on his face."Um...yeah, it's okay" I stuttered timidly, I felt all the courage to tell him about my ability flew out of the window, I didn't know how to

I met my mom and dad having a picnic outside, they were giggling and laughing. I was so impressed, walking in was a little bit difficult because I knew I might disrupt them and I didn't want that, it's been long since I saw them had fun together, so I took the back door, I was starting to worry when it refused to open, at first I thought it was locked and when I pushed harder it opened, so I slipped in quietly practically tiptoe into my room , I had changed and freshen up and was about getting some food in the kitchen when I heard my parents footsteps.I hide along the hallway of my room and watch them cuddling each other as they made for their room'Aren't they too old for that?' I asked myself before finally getting food from the kitchen, I took it to my room to see my phone ringing, it was Adrian, I rejected it and in about 5 minutes a msg notification came in,'I'm sorry Natalie.... I know what I did was wrong, I messed up, and

"Oh come on Nathan... It's not like you miss me, let go" I told my brother who was hugging me so tight immediately I got down from mom's vehicle. "Little sis... Damn you've become bigger, and obviously taller" He grinned releasing me and putting his hands on my shoulder glaring at me with surprise visible, yeah, he's right, my brother's very tall and I always look like a child next to him but when he left, I was 15, I haven't taken a full shape of a lady then, and seeing me now, I look like a college kid already. "You're making me uncomfortable Nathan" I said trying to stop him from gawking at me like a man....I can hear his thoughts and it was embarrassing."Do you still have that your...mind reading ability? He said raising an eyebrow but instead of answering him I just left and follow my mom who decided to go inside after watching us for a while. "Hey...come on, I just want to know" Nathan said following, I entered to

"Hey" I heard Alfred's voice, I couldn't have mistaken that, he was actually the person bending over to me as I slowly open my eyes, so that implies...I am still alive. That's a relief, Mr Smith will be so disappointed to think I'm dead."Hey...you're awake" Alfred asked and I nodded slowly and painfully."How long have I been out?" I drawled."Two days" Andy replied making herself noticeable at the corner she stood staring worriedly at me."That long? damn, I've missed pretty much of things. Classes, training, oh hell-"I found you very unbelievable, you've been lying down for two days and the first thing you worry about is classes?!" Nicholas exclaimed in disbelief before scoffing, leaving me embarrassed he's right, I've missed Mr Smith call for the day before, we are always communicating so I could inform him of my progress.

"Come on guys" I said trying to persuade Andy and Alfred to talk to me since they refuse to say anything ever since the post was decided."You screwed up" Andy snapped harshly."I'm sorry. I just think it's for the best, he's better than us-"Don't you get it. You just made him a gamma, our team leader, he has authority over us. He's in control now and you just gave him your life Ari, like that wasn't enough. If anything happen to you...we don't know what we'll do" Andy explained despondently making me feel warm from the inside, she was very sincere."I'll be careful" I promised."I'm sorry" I said with my hand on her shoulder."It's okay" she said finally and I hugged her."Alfred" I called immediately I released Andy."Come here you" he said and I hug him, together with Andy."AAAA" He said taking a selfie of

"Where were you?" Andy asked as I came strolling down from the control building."Just...out to see someone" I replied stuttering a little."Really? I don't like the tone of that" She asked narrowing her face at me in suspicion."Trust me everything is fine" I assured reading her thoughts, she thought something was wrong. Not anyone can come to the control building."Are you sure?" She pressed."Trust me I'm cool" I said going along with her."Hey" someone called behind us indignantly and we both look back."Nich-"Was it you?" He snarled cutting me short."What?" I asked cluelessly not too sure of what he meant."This" he said showing his bandaged hand, I was quiet, I couldn't tell him I helped him treat his wounds."I wonder if you're stupid or just clueless" He e

"I have nothing to do with what was stolen" I declared though many believed me. They still find it very hard to accept it."Andy....did you see her take it?" Mrs Georgia asked but Andy stood looking at me. She was certain she saw me but, she wasn't completely sure."Andy" Mrs Georgia called some of softly after seeing how quiet she was."I...I don't know, I can't remember" She finally answered looking at my sombre expression."Alfred" Mrs Georgia called out to Alfred."I didn't" he declared without doubt. He had a memory of seeing me though, but he just couldn't bring himself to tell them he saw me."But you both agreed you saw her closing her locker after putting some files inside. Which was found out to be exactly what we we're looking for?" Mrs Georgia asked staring at them suspiciously."I said books...not files" Alfred rephrase

"I'm so exited about tomorrow" I said to Andy who was busy with her nails."You know what! There's so much you don't know about climbing Ariana" She voiced checking out her nails"What's there to know about? Its just climbing! "I shrugged trying to get her to explain what she meant."No...it's not just climbing, all team is ready to do anything to get that flag and that includes eliminating anyone who try stopping them" She explained while I still gave a nonchalant look because I would do anything as well."Why would they do that?" I asked not too certain what the term 'eliminate' implies."Ariana... don't mess with anybody tomorrow. Especially not the Neutrons" She advised earnestly."But...why?" I asked but she just kept quiet, from her thoughts I could sense she was deeply hurt, she had lost her friend in mountain climbing last year, they all claim she

"You could actually lose your badge for that" I reminded her really glad I've gone through the rules, the girl retracted at once."Jane...Kelly, go catch a seat" Alveera instructed and they did as told after throwing some murderous stares at me. Then I actually realised Alveera was my team leader, she left after ensuring we were in order and moved to the other gammas who was seated in the front.I didn't pay much attention to the whole presentation thing. I wanted to get started, and I knew I have when Lady Georgia call on me and Alfred, she led us to the gymnasium and start addressing us."I'm lady Georgia and I'm in charge of making you fit enough to be in Level two, we will have two weeks preparatory training before you finally start your lesson with your mates, first I have to know what you're good at, your basics, and your weaknesses but I can't without you having a training mate, this" she said gesturing over
SILENT THOUGHTS Episode 26
"Hi" I greeted taking my food next to Andy after taking my share in the cafeteria, one upsetting thing was, she was completely ignoring me, she didn't mean to though, she was afraid she will be picked on because none of the level 2 students like me, they were upset they work their way to level two but I came from nowhere without any training whatsoever to join them, and they all promise to put me where I belong; though I don't know what that meant.I ate my food in silence afterward and when I was done, I felt I needed to use the restroom, I was on my way when I saw two boys beating Alfred in front of the male restroom while other students just passed by not minding the scene at all, I felt my rage boiling me up, my breathing become erratic as anger overwhelmed me, so I tired to calm myself and the next moment I send the waste bin flying at one of the guys face, before the other could react I gave him a punch in the face, they were too stunned to do anything,

After having dinner with them and chatting with Ashley about her new school till she fell asleep, I left for my room, took out my old phone under a hidden box at the entrance which was covered with foot rug, it was a box imbedded in the floor, I dialled my mom's number and she picked at once, as if expecting my call, I told her about my progress and she was very happy with it, she congratulated me and wish me good luck, then I called my brother, sure that guy always had something to talk about, I didn't know how the time fly so fast, I had to sleep around 11.30
