She let out a soft breath and slid her phone across the table to me. "I think you need to see this." "Err… are we still talking about the same thing?" Ayo asked uncertainly. I grabbed the phone and I knew that it couldn't be good news but I needed to see it anyway. My eyes darted across the screen taking in the words.

The two told Eye Spy that they had only just reunited after a brief separation and were definitely planning to make up for lost time. But they certainly weren't the only glamorous couple at the event, famous actress… " I stopped reading. How could the same girl I planned to introduce to my mother run off to a party with her ex on the very same day? A mind-numbing pain settled over me and it blocked out any other feeling. I knew Cindy had been involved with this guy before but I never thought

Ricky sighed softly and stood. He hesitated as he tapped his fingers on the edge of the table. His fingers clenched into a fist and his shoulders seemed to sag like they held an unseen burden. "Look, it's probably too late for me to back out of this. Anyway, I'm just warning you that this might be more than you expect. You really don't strike me as the kind of guy to be in this business and I hope it isn't too late for you."

When I pulled into the garage at home, I shut off the engine and remained in the car for a while. Well, that was a terrible day. My gaze went to the glove compartment of the car. The knowledge of what was in there and what it represented was enough to make my heart beat double time. Not to mention, Cindy who popped out of nowhere on the same day.My mind flashed back to the look on her face as she cried, the picture she and Ethan made together, the words we exchanged. I shook my head to clear it. It wasn't the time to think about that. What was done, was done. I got ou

If I was lucky, maybe Ali-the quiet boy who usually sits at the front- would still be available. I looked up and found myself staring into a pair of dark brown eyes that loomed directly over me."So, care to tell me why you're hiding down there, Ola?" Chris was amused."I was not hiding," I replied as I fiddled with my already-arranged books again.

I did not know a lot of guys like Michael. Okay, so I did not know a lot of guys, period. Anyway, I had not felt as comfortable around a guy as I did around him. However, the day I saw a movie at the cinema with Michael and his friends, it had all started great until he went to the bathroom and returned agitated. I recalled the uneasy look in his eyes even though he tried to act like everything was okay. I remembered the shock I felt when he grabbed my arm.

I had only spent a couple of days at my new secondary school but one thing I was sure of was that it was very different from my former school. Everyone here seemed to know each other from somewhere. If it was not kindergarten, it was a primary school, church or they were family friends. I was a stranger in a new place with zero ideas of how I was supposed to survive the new term of school. I was in junior secondary school so you could imagine how it felt to be the new student. People stared when I walked past and they stared some more when we were in class together.

I was livid as I took Kiki out of the hotel and hailed a cab. The cab driver gave us a curious look but didn’t ask any questions. We must have looked a sight to behold. I was furious and it was written plain as day on my face while Kiki was in a wet bathrobe with fear in her expression. I gave the cab driver the address and he drove off. We didn’t speak until we got home and even then I could barely look at her without remembering the scene at the hotel. I did not understand where my innocent 13-year old sister had gone and who this person was in her place. “Caleb,” she whispered with a downcast gaze as her eyes grew misty.“What?” I snapped.“I’m sorry.”“Sorry doesn’t cut it just yet. You have a lot of explaining to do so you better start right now before I lose my temper any further. Tell me how you two met.”“At my friend’s brother’s party.”“Which friend is that?”“Coco, you don’t know her.”“Who is her brother?”“Her brother, Cole is a model, a popular one. Her brother threw a
