Today was a good day, to begin with, Leo finally came to school but he wasn’t looking too great. I am not talking about his looks because he is a great-looking guy but should I say his demeanor or countenance looked dull or sad.

I was happy he finally came to school and glared hardly at Mabel when she came to hug him too as if they were seeing each other or are friends or something.

She ignored me and the signs I was giving so I had to draw her away from him but was digging my nails in her skin in the process and daring her to say something about it.

She grimaced and forcefully took her arm from my grip then glared at me too before storming away forgetting her plans to flirt with Leo.

“Deserves it,” I said to myself and lead Leo to the school cafeteria to get some snacks before the first period started but the cafe hadn't opened yet.

“I told you they don’t open till it is break time or some minutes before break time,” he told me and I just rol

    Today is the last day of our exams and I was so elated to get out of school and go home having in mind that holiday is coming. Short or long, a holiday is a holiday.I finished up and submitted my exam papers then made my way to the school cafeteria to wait for my twin and Leo to come out.The seniors had this week to rest before they come back next week for their practise practical exam. I love this school.I took one of the tables that was in an unnoticeable place at the cafeteria then settled down and put my bag on the floor beside me and then brought out my notebook to check for some of the questions that I could remember from the exam and saw that I got most of them and missed a few.I checked the past question and saw some of the questions came from it. I knew it, that was why they said we should not wait till its our turn to solve some of the questions in the past question booklet.They said they wanted us more prepared than my brother&rsquo

    We finished our exams last week and our seniors were already back to school for their practice practical exam, I do wish them luck with it and hope they come back excellent with it.So school has closed for the term and we are home since Monday, and today is a Tuesday so I and Leo decided to hang out somewhere he said was a surprise.He just likes to surprise me. Flattered.He said he needed more bonding time with me so I agreed since I too will be needing that.I had still been having the feeling that he was leaving but I just don’t want to jump to conclusions and just ask him questions that might make him tense or agitated as he becomes sometimes when I ask him if things were okay or just ask about everything.I told my mum and dad already about our plans even Elle knew I was going to be out for almost the whole day and I could see some kind of relief and happiness in her features when I was telling her.I want to ask why she was lik

    “What was he doing there? Were you expecting him?” Leo asked me and I took my attention from the window I was looking out from to him then smiled a bit and shook my head.I looked away from him and back to the window.“No, when I heard the bell I rushed downstairs thinking it was you, and when I opened the door” I shrugged “Turns out it wasn’t you”I heard him chuckle lightly.“Okay,” was his reply and I didn’t say anything.We just sat there as the cab driver took us to the destination Leo told him.I was playing with the case of my phone as I think about some things that got me wondering.I really think this shouldn't be called a vacation anymore.First, there is the fact that I am getting affected by Chris again. I can't tell why that is happening but I do feel for that boy.It cant happen, it mustn’t. it should be different from what I feel for Leo but

    I took a sip from my coconut drink and sighed satisfyingly before leaning back on the chair and rubbing my slightly bumping stomach due to how full I am from the meal we just had.“You know…” I looked at him who looked as full as I was and chuckled then took another sip before talking.“You know, people might actually believe we are a real couple? Even my mum winked at me when I told her you were taking me somewhere you think I might like.” I told him and he nodded then leaned forward.He put his elbow on the table then rested his chin on his palm as he looked at me.“When she asked where you were taking me, I told her ‘I don’t know, he said he was a surprise’ then she smiled and winked at me saying that this time it might be real,” I said a shook my head.“Then why don’t we make it real?” he asked throwing me off guard.I paused from carrying the drink a

    We turned to look at whose voice it was I frowned in wonder as to how he knew where we were and thought if he was following us.As I can remember, when I and Leo left my home he went inside with my twin and now he is here standing behind us with his hands in his pockets making me and Leo confused as to how he is here.I want to think it is a coincidence but I can't believe that it is because he might have followed us all the way here.Leo sighed and muttered something under his breath then looked away from him.“Why are you getting stressed over this? It could be a coincidence” I told him and he just shrugged then stepped pack from me by three steps.“Maybe he wants to talk to you, I will give you some time to talk to each other okay?”“Leo…”“No, it's fine Ella. I will be there when you are through” he pointed at an ice cream stand and walked over there without letting me say any

    “Who will take the dustbin out?” mum asked while we sat in the parlor after we were done eating.I, my twin and my brother looked at each other and I saw that they didn’t have any intention of taking it out so I raised my hand and turned to my mum.“I will”“Okay, the dishes are washed already and all other messy dirt has been thrown in the nylon so be careful as you carry it,” mum told me and made her way upstairs.“Do you want me to come and help you?” Elle asked me when I stood up to go to the kitchen.“If you mean, standing by the door as you watch me go throw the nylon in the bin outside then scare me or lock the door when I return, nope. I don’t need your help” I told her and entered the kitchen.“Who wants to come and help you sef?” I heard her say and laughed.Like mum said, the nylon was properly tied, just for me to get it out of the bin buck

    That dream should definitely be a confirmation of what I and mum have been feeling or maybe not, I don’t know. I wanted to conclude it was like the ones I keep having but instead, I was older and in this estate we presently live in, so that could be a warning or something like that. I should talk to mum about it. She will know what to do about it. A beep came in and I picked up my phone to see that it was from my twin who is just a door away from me, like seriously, she got to be kidding me. I shook my head since I too am lazy to go and scold her in her room so I opened the message and it was a video so I pressed play to watch it and almost fell off my bed due to the laugh that erupted from my lips and her text caused it. Forgetting that I was too lazy to go and answer her, I stood up from my bed and went to go meet her instead. I knocked whilst laughing and after some seconds I saw a laughing twin of mine with her phone in her hand.

    I came out of the taxi and paid the driver then looked around to check for th- yeah, that is it.Looking at my left, my right, and my left again, I crossed the road to get to the restaurant I was to meet with him and entered.It was kind of cozy and a bit noisy with some people walking about, some sitting, eating and gisting at the same time and while some went to the woman serving the food to get theirs.My eyes worked quickly as I looked around the restaurant then caught sight of the person I was going to see, waving his hand so I walked up to him and sat in front of him then placed my bag on my lap as we looked at each other not talking.When I saw that he didn’t plan on saying anything any moment from now rather than just stare at me, I decided to speak.“So what do you want to talk about?” I folded my arms on the table.Just as he opened his mouth to say something we heard a bang and turned to the source of the sound t

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.

    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.

    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
