2024-10-29 19:42:56'Laura, Laura wake up. Please don't scare me. Wake uppp, open your eyes' I heard someone sob and yell at a distance. 'Are you even breathing?' after a pause 'Thank heavens. Please wake up soon. It's scary here'.
I flicker my eyes for a while to clear and adjust to the dim surrounding. I couldn't feel pain in my body except at my wrist and ankle. I take deep breaths sending gushing air into my system to regain energy to straighten my posture. I sit up slowing with some difficulty.
'Laura, thank heavens. I was so worried' I hear Jessica.
'What happen. Are you alright?' I speak in a huffed voice.
'I woke up a while ago and noticed we're tied up. I don't even recognise the place' her words make my eyes open wide.
'We're tied up?' I repeat and examine my body. The pain was due to the jump rope that was cuffed around my wrist and ankles. 'Who did it?' I ask looking at her who was tied the very same way.
'I'm unsure. Nobody entere

'What is it?' Jessica asks me and punches her elbow into the right lower abdomen. A low cry escapes my lips as I bend forward due to the pain and she turns around immediately 'Are you okay, Laura? Shall I open my eyes?' she questions knitting her eyebrows and squeezing her eyes tightly closed. She looked funny with her long hair all messed up, her hands grabbing my left palm like a kid expecting a grand surprise and her legs in the ready-to-run gesture. I giggle at her and look around to examine the strange location we were in.I pull my hand out of hers and jerks she opens her eyes worried.'Look, we're safe. Stop acting like a kid, sis' I mock at her.She straightened her posture clearing her throat 'Who is the kid? Where are we anyway?' she tries to change the topic and succeeds.'A forest?''I see that.' staring at me 'Which forest?''Let's find out' I reply and turn around to get a clearer picture of the place.
The Lost Destiny Awkwardness
The building resembled a basic mansion but definitely wasn't small. I stare in awe at the two storey building that Jessica introduces to me as 'Home''This family is rich?' I think to myself."Come on Laura, let's get in" she says dragging my left hand."I still think its a bad idea, Jessica.""Oh come on sis, stop being a ..... " she trails off when a boy, with teak brown hair, a round nerd spectacle, wearing an oversized grey sweatshirt and khaki pant and the Nike hat backwards hit her head with the book in his right hand."Where were you Jessica?" he questions."Miler... You little, why did you hit me and no matter where I went. What's your problem?' she asks while rubbing her spot with her palm. The stranger, eyes her doubtfully before turning to me"To what do I owe the pleasure of meeting you, Ms...""Ms. Laura. Pleased to meet you too and I'm here to ..." I stumble to answer his weird question.

"What are you doing here? Do you work here?" I heard a voice from behind and turned to look at the person who approached me with heavy steps trying to catch up. It was Daniel."I'm sorry Laura, I couldn't stop him" says Jessica running towards me."Its fine Jessica and you don't have any business here, so please leave" I say firmly looking at Daniel."You're business is my business Laura" he says. 'What does he mean. Is he flirting with me?' I roll my eyes and approach the gates, he follows me while Jessica follows with guilty eyes."Do you know anyone here?" he questions again."I'm okay if you want to come along with me as long as you keep quiet" I say in a higher tone and he zips his mouth with his right thumb and index finger and inserts them in his pocket.I turn around and approach the receptionist,'Who is she? Isn't Ms. Gilbert the receptionist?' I wonder and speak "Good afternoon ma'am. Can I meet Ms. Gilbert?'&nb
The Lost Destiny Acceptance
Miler climbs the stairs first and starts unlocking the door. Daniel stands next, on the 2nd step and looks at me with a puzzled expression trying to figure out what was happening to us. Jessica held my left palm trapped in her right arm like; if she left, it i'd run away. My mind was going dark and darker as milliseconds passed."Oh, my kids are home. Welcome shining stars" a voice comes from in as Miler walks into the house."Hey old man" he says and disappears from my sight after changing his shoes.Daniel takes a quick glance of me with a tiny smile and enters next "Welcome home homie".I push Jessica to get in next, she nods whispering "Sis, no matter what happens in there, remember you've got me." looking deep into my eyes. I felt her words reach deep into my soul. I nod and she goes in. The entire scene resembled a public-speaking contest and I was on nerves while the other three were cool. I shake my head.
The Lost Destiny I'm pitiful?
I sit up straight and instantly wipe away my tears, the hand remains on my shoulder. I turn to identify the person behind but my watery eyes only let me see after letting out few more drops of tears. It was Daniel, he had a small smile and concern filled his eyes."I'm fine" I lie."I'm sure you are, Laura" he says sitting on the chair beside me."What are you doing this late?""I um... drugs?" he replies and I stare at him wide-eyed"Drugs?" I repeat with raised eyebrows."Why not?""Aren't you the lollipop type?" I ask mocking him."I am every type" he laughs."Alright, so what type of drugs do you consume?""Are you interested in me Laura?" he hisses."Are you insane" I question knitting my eyes."Wasn't until I met you." he sighs.I clear my throat and say "Think this conversation is over" standing up."Follow me" he says grabbing my wrist and app

"Laura, wake up" I hear Jessica."What?" I ask turning on my back."On your feet" she remarks."Why?" I ask annoyed."Let's go somewhere" this line of her's reminded me of the place I’m in. I jerk up straight 'How can I sleep in on my first day at father's house' I question myself."Here, change into them sis. Will let you know about our day when you're ready" She hands me a blue jean and an oversized white shirt with red spots.I rush to the restroom after looking at the clock, it said 5.50 am.After a nerve comforting shower, I get dressed and get out pulling up my hair into a pony."You're beautiful sis" she sings loudly as I step out, I smile and nod."Should I cook breakfast?"

Having dated for two years they're still the same" Daniel replies looking at his brother.The two brothers walk further and Oliver joins them. We girls make a group. They ask us to walk ahead of them and we do so."I thought you would reject Daniel" says Amber."Yes, you were too easy, Laura" says Jessica."Was I?' I laugh back."You definitely were" they chorus."I wasn't thinking much." I say"Were you even thinking at all?" questions Amber."I was.

“Have a good life” Argon wises as I step out of the car.“I wish you the best life of your choice” I wish him back and walk to the palace. The guard has smiles and opens the gate for me; it wasn’t long ago when he didn’t let me enter without the residence card. Now he grew so familiar with me that he lets me enter as its my own place. But sadly I wouldn’t stay long here. I smile at the guard and enter the gates.The entire garden was in full bloom, every single flower was enjoying the sun rays to the fullest. The gardener smiled and greeted me. I greet them back and walk past them to enter the palace.“You’re back?” Jessica questions as I walk in“Guess I am” I nod and walk up to herShe grabs me into an embrace and almost crushes me, I try to crush her with my arms too.

My mouth tastes bitter and my head still stings. I open my eyes but my vision clears only after a couple of blinks. I roam my eyes on the ceiling before last night flashes back to me.“What happen?Did the promise nreak?Did Daisy die?What happen to mom?Is she here or did she leave already?Jessica, is she alright?” many questions swing around my head. I take a deep breath in and try to calm myself. I was on my bed in my room. Jessica wasn’t here which worried me more. I slowly sit up and look at the clock. It stroke 5.42am. I stand up and check if I felt any pain, but except in my head, there was no other uneasiness. I realise that there is no scar on my palm, the skin was clear and perfect; without a single stitch or scar. I stare at my palm for a couple of seconds before coming back to the reality.I rush to the restroom and splash some water on my face, tp assure myself I was really awake. The
