They dropped her to see who was talking, and soon enough, their gaze fell on me. The thin one's stare w, as intense, probing, and seemed to cut through any pretense or hesitation. His gaze was fixed on me, and he didn't flinch or look away until he started walking towards my direction. His stare was so intimidating and unsettling. I start to feel a tinge of fear inside me. All of a sudden, they both burst into laughter, and their laugh echoed through the alley. Which made me look confused. Why on earth are they laughing? "Diana" Kira's eyes wander around "What the hell are you doing" "Get the fuck outta here" "And do what,...leave you?" I said back in reply "Hey hey hey" what's up with all the noise says the big one and he started looking at me "So you're the saviour hun?" Says the thin one as he started walking towards me little by little but was later held back by the big one. I skid to a halt as my pulse thuds "Okay calm down" I said to myself "This is still daybreak.

"Hola," she said laughing "You?" I said to her "You are so dead girl," I said to her but she took heels already "I just wanted to scare you a little that's all" "Scare me a little?" "Yeah and guess what it worked" "It worked? Well congratulations to you cause you scared the daylight out of me already" "What? You haven't seen me for a long time so don't tell me you were expecting a normal entry" "Of course, I shouldn't have cause you're not normal I knew that from the start" "I'm supposed to come in with a grand entry a spectacular one at that as per the celebrity that I am" "Oh please, spare me the bullshit" "You it's the truth baby girl this girl in front of you ain't small... she's got some wings and wins" she said dramatically "Well don't spread that wings over to my side to avoid me chopping them off for you" "Ouch.. that's cruel" "Cruel?

Bianca has been my friend since High school. We don't really offer the same course except Algebra, Spanish, and Phys. Ed. My stay in High school would have been boring without her. The first time I met her, I was on my way out of Algebra class when I suddenly bumped into her. She has really long and lustrous hair, a shade of golden sunshine that catches the light with every movement. It fell in gentle waves around her face as she bent down to pack her things that had delicately beautiful framing features. Her eyes are a bright blue, like the depths of a clear summer sky, and they shine with intelligence and a touch of mischief. Her skin is creamy and flawless, with just a hint of a rosy flush on her cheeks. She is slender and Her smile is warm and inviting. "I'm so sorry I didn't mean for that to happen" I said to her and she gave me a warm smile "It's okay don't worry," she said in her tiny voice not like now that her voice was matured "Yeah thanks," I said and gave her a warm smi

"And lest I forget, I've got something for you guys but it's only one so I don't know how you guys wanna go about it" "Ermm...why will you just get one stuff for the both of us?" "Don't mind Diana, tell me what you got?" "Okay as I was coming over, I saw a smoothie Van, so I stopped by to buy one and see if it's cool...you know..." "Wait, so that means you didn't get us anything from the start" "Er... oops sorry" She said in a childlike manner "So... what happened afterwards" Kira asked before I got to question her again "Oh yeah...as I was saying before, I was rudely interrupted by this little girl right here...so I bought one and drank a little to see if it was c,ool, of course, and thankfully it was

"Bi, you do that?" "It's not that worse okay... she's exaggerating... but I'm not actually a saint either... just trying to be a better citizen you know" "For a government that doesn't remember you exist, oh please,", I said, laughing 🐮 "I can't believe this Bi, I thought she's like better than us you know... with the touch and everything" "What else would you expect from a rich girl like her" "Stop flattering yourself, guys" "Are we flattering Kira?" I said as I placed it around her neck as we walk "Nope we ain't" "See" I said but she just rolled her eyeballs "Orr..is she here to see her boyfriend? Don't you think Kira?" "Hmmm..yeah that's true," she said in my support..." But does she have a boyfriend though," she said whispering into my ears "Yeah she does...since High School" "Oh wow that's cool" "I know right...

"Fuck Katie wherever she is," I said out loud "Ok, you don't have to be that mean; it's gone already. I guess I'm not just good enough for him, but who cares? Look at me now; I am doing just fine." "Way to go girl" Kira said as they both exchanged a high-five "Yeah yeah I'm glad you are back on your feet now" "And to suit your conscience, I have some unfinished business to take care of" "Unfinished business??" I asked confused "Yeah it's nothing actually, my Dad took care of it just wanna make sure all is good" "Ok, enough about me. How about we talk about... err...Kira" she said turning towards her direction "What! Mee?" "Yeah you," I said smirking "No way," She said scoffing "Yes way" I said giving her a wicked smile cause I was about to ask her what she'd been avoiding talking to me about all these days and I knew she was not gonna like it especially when Bi was here but that's gonna make things easier cause I'm gonna get Bi into making her spill the beans.

"Eiii" I shouted at her but her focus was still fixed on where we were going as we moved closer I started the crowd's conversations faintly Crowd 1: who the fuck did this man? Crowd 2: Son of a bitch, why did they dump this shit here when they could have just dumped it in a goddamn bush or sea Crowd 3: She probably got what she deserved Crowd 4: They ain't get no shame in this city man, I can't believe they fucking did this to a human "What do you think happened Bianca" Kira asked Bianca while I tried to listen more "I seriously don't know, Kir still can't hear anything. Can you Diana?" She said facing me at the back " I can't understand what's going on either but the situation is probably serious" "Ok, I'm starting to have a feeling about this. Should we just go back?" Kira asked and I ended up laughing but not too loud to not draw attention to myself "What happened to your courage now hun? We are already here so there's no going back" I said tapping her shoulder "Look, we

Kira yelled at me "I'm not directly getting involved with them you guys" "And what if they detect your fingerprints on the body cause there's no way you're not gonna touch that body," Kira said "I just wanna check it's nothing much I just wanna clear my doubts leave me alone" I said and jerked my hand away from Bianca "Why do you have to be so stubborn about this" "Ok listen, how about I call her then, okay?"

Bianca said opening a freezer that was locked behind a door that I'm sure I've never seen in my whole life I've been with Ary and my mouth opened wide in surprise"I can't believe Ary has all this in the house while I starve most of the time and eat sandwiches like there's no tomorrow or probably some stolen foods I got from the restaurant while we have good stuffs in the house" I said in my mind"But where did she get all of these good foods from?

Diana POV"Geez" I can't believe I almost injured myself with the door. Thank goodness she didn't see that after I left the room I went straight to the living room and sat down for a minute. Shortly after I decided to go check up on Ary in her room and maybe tell her about what happened yesterday depending on the situation I met her in"Oh God, I still feel sleepy; I don't know why Kira woke me up," I said and walked sluggishly to her room. "Knock knock" I knocked on her door yawning but there was no reply"Maybe she's still sleeping" I concluded and left the door"Wait a minute, didn't Bianca say it was afternoon already? It's not possible she's still sleeping" I said and turned back to her room"No no wait, what is she's sleeping I might end up disturbing her sleep and she's not going to spare me if I did" I said and turned back again fearing her scolding"Just a check won't hurt not that I'm going to make any noise or anything," I said to myself and then summoned the courage to wa

Bianca asked rubbing her eyes with the back of her palm like she still wanted to go back to sleep only if she knew what the time says"Early, you say. Do you know what the time is? But I guess not" I asked"10 o'clock maybe?" She asked"Oh you wish it's fucking twelve already" I said rolling my eyes"Oh my goodness, I can't believe I slept that long and I haven't eaten," She said and held her grumbling tummy"We slept late so that's worth the sleep," I told her"Since when have you been awake?"
