“So what is the final decision?” Elle asked me and I just shrugged and went back to preparing for school.

I haven’t seen much of Leo in school these few days and he also refused to hang out. I honestly didn’t think it would be this bad, I didn’t.

He would just flash me a smile whenever we occasionally see each other and that was all.

I even asked if I could join him for lunch and he would reply he isn’t hungry or has eaten before and I didn’t feel good by his reply.

Sometimes I would see him in deep thoughts as if there is something bothering him and he couldn’t share with anyone.

I wish were still on talking terms where he could easily tell me if something is bothering him and I could give out advice I think is suitable for each issue he discusses with him.

But now the case is different and I can't tell him to let me know what is going on with him. Nothing bothers that young man and wondered what it could be.

Well, except for

    It was break time and I went to get something to eat. I wanted to dare and buy the food they sell here in school. Don’t get me wrong, the woman cooks well but I really don’t trust to eat anywhere except if I just like the place, food or I feel comfortable in that place. I was hungry for rice with porridge beans, some plantain, and fish. This is going to be a healthy meal. I smiled to myself and went out of the class and in the direction of the school canteen. I brought in enough money and was going to buy like two plates. Danielle isn't the only one who can eat, duh! I entered and it was quite busy. Everyone was moving here and there. Some were sitting down with their food in front of them, while some were in a line to buy food. I moved closer to ask if they have take-away packs and was directed to go to a lady behind a counter that was close to what looks like a back door to buy tickets with the takeaway packs. When I was in f

    “I can see you smiley already, can you let me in on it?” Danielle said when I came out of the school smiling. “Can I just be smiling without it being questioned?” I asked with a smile on my face. “This morning you looked so unsure and now you are looking like you went up to touch the moon and you are back, tell us what’s up” Elle replied. “Oh wait, let me guess. You and Leo are now on talking term?” Rebecca asked and I giggled. “Yeah, you guessed right, we are friends again. We reasoned things out and we just thought to stay together as friends since we are better off as one” I shrugged. “That is good, I am glad you both came to an agreement and did not let whatever that happened to separate you from each other. You guys will definitely be cute as a couple but it is better you are close” Rebecca said and I nod in agreement. “Yeah, I am glad too… by the way where is Daniel? I didn’t see him anywhere, how about Albert? He isn't coming wi

    He burst into the boy's room and saw him laying on his bed face down, the boy didn’t flinch when he burst in rather he just remained as he was. The man chuckled then proceed to walk towards the bed. When he was closer he hit the bed lightly then walked around till he could see his head facing the other side. This wasn’t the reaction he was expecting from the boy so he was amazed/surprised he didn’t flinch or feel scared he could be hurt any moment from now. “You know, I am quite amazed by your newfound confidence or should I say boldness” he began and the boy didn’t move or turn to look at him. That spiked him a bit and he wanted to be violent on him but thought otherwise. “You look at me when I talk to you,” he said, and still no reaction from the boy. He stood up angrily and took off his belt ready to smack him but stopped himself. What if the boy was hurt and couldn’t respond to his queries? He folded the belt and sat back o

    That maths teacher was really mean. Why would he just give us a test and not even tell us beforehand? It is like he loves surprising us like that and that is not the kind of surprise I wish for or anyone in the class wish for. The worst thing he did was that he shuffled everyone’s seat to avoid cheating and not like I was going to cheat but if Leo was sitting beside me, he would have told me the formula and I would have found my way around. But it was like he knew he caught us off guard and knew the ones that would be ready no matter what and the ones who wouldn’t be ready. “What a test” I muttered when we got out of class to go get something to eat at the school canteen. “I suddenly feel like I haven't eaten for days after that short but hard test,” I said to Leo who would glance at me from time to time. “It wasn’t that hard though,” he shrugged. “Yeah, you would say that. You are a natural genius and I was wishing I would sit beside you so y

    “Look, here boy, I do not like the news I am hearing at the moment, what is going on? Why am I not receiving the news I expect to receive? Why are you slow in your work?” he asked the boy standing at the door. He had his hands behind him and his head bow, looking at the floor and wishing this man drops dead soon so he can be free from him and his worth. “No-- nothing sir” he muttered still looking at the floor. “You look at me when I talk to you and you speak louder, okay? I do not want to tell you to speak up, am I clear?” he asked banging the table hard and glaring at the boy. The boy flinched by that sudden sound and looked at the man with fear written in his feature. “Ye-yes sir,” he spoke louder this time and the man nodded. “Good, now tell me, why is the progress slower than I expected?” he crossed his arms. “I can't really explain that, I did all that you asked me to do but can't give a definite reason as to why it is go

    I knew it, my mind couldn’t deceive me about this. I warned that boy and he messed up, he will have to face my wrath or I, Daniel and Leo’s wrath. We have been in this position for the past thirty minutes she decided to just cry in my arms. I hugged her and rubbed comforting circles on her back and told her to calm down. When she was seated she leaned back from the hug and wiped her face from the tears that stained her cheeks. “Mum is around already and would be up here in no time to ask us to come downstairs to eat, now do you want to tell her about this?” I asked and she shook her head no. “Okay, clean your face up and lay on my bed, I will tell mum you aren't feeling too good so that I can bring your dinner upstairs.” She nodded her head and cleaned the fresh tears that fell on her cheeks. “Thank you” “You are welcome” I stood up from the bed and she lay on my bed facing the other side.

    That guy is unbelievable. I really wish to give him a piece of my mind but Elle begged me not to and that I should not tell Daniel the whole truth. Just keep it between us as twins. I agree with that just because I don’t want any form of drama that she would not be able to handle, till she could get her mind off him completely. I have been trying to see if there were cases where I would bump into him and just say something to him. My reasons are clear enough. He hit on me even while still with my sister so he deserve some kind of slap from me that would tell him not to mess with me or my twin. I really was against them being together because I know who this guy was. He was the ‘I date who I like at the moment and drop them when I don’t feel it anymore’kind of guy and didn’t want what just happened to happen in the first place. But I was in no place to tell her what to do. She liked him and wants my support just as she has been giving me

    It's been over a week since all that Albert drama thing and I can see that Elle isn’t affected by this breakup thing and it was a good thing for me. For now, though, I still haven’t told her yet about the Albert liking me thing. She might have known since Leo said I was the only one clueless to the guys in school who likes me and even she had confirmed it too. I want to just leave it at that with the thought that she is aware of it but… what if she doesn’t know about it? And she learns from someone else? That would not be good at all. She will definitely be angry at me for that. It was Saturday morning and the sun is glaring hot so we didn’t bother with the plans we had for today and decided to postpone it for a day with more favoring weather. I walked up to the door that separates her room from mine and took in deep breaths then let it out slowly. “It's now or never” I muttered and raised my fist to knock. Just as I was about knocking

    “Ba-”“Where is my daughter?” she cuts him off as she threw him an angry look but he just looked at her, unable to formulate any word to say to her.“Look bab-”“I SAID DO NOT BABE ME” she screamed at him and he was taken aback by her outburst.This was going to be the first time in so many years that he would be seeing her in such a state. She gets angry but not this angry and would never use this tone on him.Daniella is definitely to blame for this. He closed his eyes to keep the pent-up anger that seem to have built up in seconds then opened them and released a breath.“I asked where is my daughter,” she said again but more calmly now.“You need to relax, okay?”“Fine, I am relaxed. Where is she?” she asked growing impatient.“Trust me, girl, I am as desperate as you to know about our baby’s whereabouts,” he said try
