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

    I just took note that I haven’t seen much of dad these few days and it was quite unusual. Don’t get me wrong but mum is the hard worker between them that is why you see her travel and all. Mum already went back to traveling for business but it isn’t as frequent as before. She said she feels as if she doesn’t spend enough time with us and wants to do that. But in all honesty between mum who travels a lot and is barely around and dad who sometimes go to work ‘because mum works hard and we have enough to enjoy ourselves’, mum is the most hardworking person I have ever known and we prefer her over dad in everything. I wish he could learn from her and step up his games. Just because he suddenly became nice to me doesn’t mean I will start taking sides with him. So I haven't been seeing more of him like I was saying. Maybe he got some other job that requires more of his time and effort. Good for him though. I walked

    “So, you can't explain to me the reason why they are on talking terms and why you couldn’t make your move?” he asked. The boy didn’t reply, instead, he bow his head and had a frown on his face. He couldn’t bring himself to do what he was instructed to do and needed to be free from this bondage. He used to do it then for fear of what the man would do to him because he was little, naive and had little or no strength to go against the man but now he is already big enough and the beating he gets from the man coupled with the ones he got from the streets made him a bit stronger. Although not enough to fully take him down but enough to get him injured till he gets help but… what exactly is stopping him from doing so? He couldn’t understand that. When he was younger he determined to grow older, get enough strength, get into fights that would enable him to have the stamina and ability to endure pain so he can prepare to take this monster of a man down.

    So today I saw Chris after some time of him being absent from school. I couldn’t explain how I felt seeing him. Was it relief? Happiness? Care? Nah, I care for most people so it shouldn’t count. Although I haven’t talked to him yet I don’t know if I am looking forward to it or not. I don’t know if he would want to talk to me sef. Like I just pushed him away after all that roller coaster sad feeling I was feeling when that thing happened. I haven’t even talked to him about that and even though he wanted us to talk about it, I just didn’t feel ready to and I was quite angry with him about that. I didn’t want to admit it but no matter how I tried to tell myself not to think about that night when I am idle I still end up thinking about it and somehow feel something strange. Not sure about what it is but it sort of warms my heart when I think about it and I don’t want that at all. It should be a guy I like and would like to

    “So what do you want to talk about now?” I asked him as we walked slowly after the school had closed already. I told Leo that I and Chris had some things to talk about but I could see he wasn’t pleased in any way. He just rolled his eyes at me and said ‘Whatever’before walking away from me. Whatever is between them must be so serious for him to feel like this towards Chris. I might not know the deepest part of Leo but I am so sure he has a pure heart in there and I haven’t seen him detest someone as he does with Chris. It was strange but everyone has who they like and who they don’t. I cant blame no one. I told my siblings I and Chris needs to talk and that he would bring me home, just like he promised. When we left the school premises we didn’t say anything for the longest time till I had to ask before he let out a sigh and started talking. “First I would like to say this” he began and I took a glance at him then back t

    “So will you come?” I asked him and pushed the bread and akara I bought in polythene nylon into his hands. I wanted him to come with the rest of the gang to this place I and Becca spotted the other day. We decided we would let our fam know so they can come along with us and we can chill. It has been stressful especially with the seniors, that is my brother, Becca, and their coursemates. Their WAEC exam is approaching really fast and the teachers in our school are doing a great job in easing the stress the students were facing and preparing them for the exam. Some of the students burned out, being their first time taking the exam and coupled with some of the strange things that they were told by some people who just like spreading rumors. They got quite edgy and easily ticked. Well, just a few of them. Daniel and Becca kept it cool and all. That was why I wanted us all to chill here and most especially for the exam takers so they don’t get any

    “I think she’s dead” I heard Org say some meters away from me and with a gruff voice. I heard shuffling of something, a slight thud, and faded steps. “Stop saying stupid things,” Del said after some time. “Remember this is the day we have to leave to where boss asked us to meet him at” he continued. “Yeah, yeah, whatever… but after today do we still get to babysit the girl? Like come on, I can't stand kids and she has overstayed her welcome. I don’t want to be shouted at because of a little girl” he said. “Just for a matter of time, just for a matter of time” Del replied him and then I heard more footsteps and this time it was coming in my direction. I did my best to pretend I was sleeping deeply and that was when I felt a light tap on my foot. I stayed still for a while and felt the tap again and it wasn’t as light as the first one. So I moved a bit and stretched on the duvet I spread on the floor to sleep the previous night and yawne

    “Okay, are we all set?” Del asked when he entered the car and Org locked the door from the driver’s place. That is the only power I know every driver has. Just this driver here has a gun so that is a double power for him. “Yes, we are” he started the car and reversed a bit then drove out of the compound and out to a narrow road. I was watching from the window as trees and bushes pass by when they drove out of the place. I wanted to ask where they would be meeting with my parents to hand me over to them but I don’t know if they would answer me or not so I just decided to be mute till we get to where we are going. Many thoughts ran through my mind as I tried to understand how it took too long to finally get to me. I am not complaining though but I thought it would have been faster to have got it clicked. I just tried to let it go so I don’t start thinking too much about it. “How long would it take for us to get there?” I heard De

    Everything has been so crazy these past months. With my dad wanting... no, trying to kill me and would have succeeded the third time if not for… Sighs I really don’t want to think about all that has been happening these past few months and so I don’t think too much and cause another depressing depression for myself again. The therapist I was supposed to see when I was little which whom I am having a weekly session told me not to overthink things too much so it doesn’t affect my daily life and so that I can concentrate on healing from what has happened. Although she said healing might be a bit difficult since I have started having flashes of what happened to me when I was little and it is causing some major trauma for me and it might or might not make me crazy that was why she recommended I shouldn’t think too much about it. So here I am in my room sitting on my bed in all-black attire, slouched over and playing with my fingers as I wai

    We all watched as emotions played on the judge face but he tried his best to ignore it.It is still like a dream to me, that my dad could do such to me and all those affection he showed where just for me to trust him enough so he can carry out his wicked plans successfully without me or mum suspecting a thing.That is the sickest thing I have ever heard anyone say and especially when that anyone is your dad.I am sick to the stomach and cant even look at him and see him as my dad.

    After about three months in total some more evidence were presented and they were able to catch the remaining suspect who agreed there was a main boss but didn’t know him by face only what Org and Del told them about him they believed.Mabel, Angela and some of her school mates that were involved testified that Org told them to do so to her because the ‘big boss’ wanted her to be broken and to lack self-esteem.The security team in the estate testified and some of the new recruit said they saw one of their men give someone in a black hoody something before the person left and was threatened not to talk else he would be killed.He was scared for his life and kept quiet and would hardly come to work, so when he heard about the missing footage and a teenager being missing, he could hold himself and had to tell his boss, not caring if he would go for it. He had a sister of that age and cant imagine what her parents would be facing.A nurse h

    Its been a week since I was discharged from the hospital and a lot has happened… like so much had happened.Everyone had been careful and gentle with me and it was okay though. Mum said she wouldnt allow me to resume school now, till everything is sorted already and mostly because she didn’t want it to serve as a remembrance to what I went through.I am glad that Daniel is almost done with his NECO exams and he said it was quite a challenge for him because he was bothered and coupled with him and Elle doing their investigations but he said he is fine now that he knows I am okay.I did ask about dad but everyone told me not to bother to much about him and I should just rest enough and not cloud my head with so many things.Elle went to school but I do have Becca to thank for staying back home with me and would stay till everyone came back home.

    Everything happened in a split second and none of them are able to tell how of what happened in the past hour. It was a blur of confusion, tears, scars, danger, slight anger, and of all hope that everything turns out well.The continuous beeping of the machines was the only signal that her daughter still has a chance to live again from all that had happened to her these past weeks and now.Rose buried her face in her palms and so wished that she was the one who was in the position of her daughter was in currently.It was still so fresh as if she was told all of these just seconds ago.She could still remember when the police called and told her that they had found Daniella.

    “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

    Deji kept pacing back and forth in his room since he heard the news. He really hoped that they were able to get out of that environment in time before things actually get out of hand.He had tried calling again and again but they aren't picking and it increased his fear with the hope that they aren't caught by whoever might have attacked them.He became more anxious as the time passes as he expect a call, text, sign of anything… anything that would give him the assurance that nothing had gone against his plan.Rose didn’t understand the reason for his restlessness these past days and doesn't understand that if anything goes wrong, he could be arrested, and would be sentenced to life imprisonment or even worse… death by hanging, firing squad, or whatever punishment they give to arrested criminals.He would be doomed if such happens that was why he wanted to make sure things go out fine and that they are okay and wherever they might be.
