I let out a scream due to how roughly I was pushed down the stairs. I felt the pain surge right through my entire body and winced when I tried moving any part of my body. I probably broke something, that must be the reason the pain is so intense. I let out a small cry and turned my head a bit then tried to fight off the headache by opening my eyes a bit to see where I was thrown to and saw that I was at the end of the stairs that leads to the basement I came out from not too long ago and the door was slightly opened. I rolled and went down the remaining two stairs with a little yelp and in the process opening the door further. I could feel the tears gathering in my eyes and rolled till I was facing the floor. I managed to place both of my shakey palms on the floor and counted to three to tried to stand up. The ke

“You sure you are feeling better?” Leo asked and I rolled my eyes for the hundredth time because for the past thirty minutes we arrived at the hotel he has been asking me the same question.I told him I am fine like I am about to and like I have been telling for the past thirty minutes.“Leonard Olumide Adedeji, like I have said before. I. Am. Fine” I sat up from laying on the bed then stretched so he can look at me properly. “See, I am fine” “I know you are fine, but like… you understand,” he said then came to sit beside me.“Olumide, I am fine,” I said calling his native name and looking at him straight in the eyes.“Okay, fine I believe you&rdqu

We were already back from our little vacay/… err… I dont know what comes after the slash but we just came back from our short vacation. It's already evening and I am preparing for school tomorrow. We went to a salon earlier today to get our hair done, that was after church service then we went to buy some things we would need and visited Rebecca’s grandmother whose house was closer to the salon. I really enjoyed the weekend and Rebecca sent me my cut from the shoot some minutes ago and it was quite large. Yep, they really wanted us to reconsider their offer. I checked my books for the next day and remembered I haven't finished up the assignment I told myself I was going to finish up. I sighed and put the notebooks along with my textbooks on my dresser table. I heard

“I am so disappointed in most of you” our English teacher, Mr. Yinka said as he paced the front of our classroom with our test scripts in his hand. He shook his head and placed them on the table and told Tolani who was sitting at the front to distribute the scripts to their respective owners. “I am so disappointed, you guys might think I shouldn’t care but I have to. I really have to. I am your teacher, you guys failing only means I failed because I am impacting knowledge in you all and you should do better. Better than this” “I asked what you don’t understand in what I teach you all but what you all do is nod and say ‘Yes sir, we understand’.” He twisted his lips in annoyance. “I have told you guys times without number, don’t be scared to tell me when you don’t understand a particular phrase or anything “That is why I was employed in the first place, to teach you what you don’t know so you can be better. I am not pleased at all, I tried my b

Everywhere was filled with darkness, the only ray of light I could see was the one coming from the street light some steps away. I was walking, but walking to where? I don't really know... the darkness was so thick it made the light coming from the street light faint.I kept walking in that direction and passed it going further into the darkness, but it wasn't too dark anymore because another street light could be seen up front and a small house… this looks so familiar like I have been here before, but I can't seem to pick point what exactly this place is and how I found myself there.I could feel my heartbeat so fast against my ribcage and tried to calm myself down by muttering what I used to hear Mum say when she puts me back to bed after a big scary nightmare.I tripped and fell forward but I hurt my wrist

So dad got back yesterday and it was quite okay. I and Danielle presented the numerous pastries (even though it isn't up to ten kinds of pastries) we made him and he appreciated it and almost ate them all.I was happy he loved it, he brought home some gifts for each of us and we all were pleased with it. I was happy I didn't get a sorcerer's book this time. Yes, that’s how strange he finds me.I am so prepared for school and Danielle thinks it's fine to take our time, I really dont know what she is doing in her room. I remembered banging against her door when I woke up because I know how much time she takes just to have her bath.Let's not start with when she is dressing up. We have uniforms for crying out loud and she takes all the time in the world to put them on. You just have to be patient when it comes to

"Hey, you came quite late to school" I heard someone say from behind me and I looked over my shoulder and followed his movement till he was walking beside me to class."Hey Leo" I greet him and he smiled at me."How are you doing?" he asked"I am fine, and you?""Hmm... good looking as always" I glanced at him and saw his dimple pop on his cheeks when he smiled and I rolled my eyes and punched him lightly on the arm."Yeah, I know" I muttered."So you find me attractive, eh?" he said looking at me from the side of his eyes."You are good looking to the eyes, though" I added under my breath."I will ignore the last word and go for the first compliment, thank you, Ella. You are very much aware I find you more than attractive?" he asked and I looked at him and flashed him a smile."I know" we were about to get into the class when I felt someone tap my shoulder then walked past me, I looked behind and face front

I honestly wasn't that mad at Leo anymore or even Chris, like it happened since morning and I am not the ‘i enjoy keeping grudges’ kind of people. Since I already told them off, I am great. I even told him not to bother joining me for lunch, because I was a bit angry then but my anger has already subsided. Now it was closing hour and everyone is heading home… I can't speak for them but I know I am heading home. ‘I need my bed at the moment' i stretched a bit and got pushed a bit by a girl who angrily muttered ‘move away and dont poke me’ i apologized and left the middle of the road. Then I made

“So do you want to explain what went on between you and your beloved Leo yesterday?” Danielle asked and I stopped from putting the piece of bread in my mouth and threw her a glare. I narrowed my eyes on her and continued with my meal. We were hanging out at Becca’s place having a little picnic at the little garden behind her home and it was going well till ‘Aunty’ here decided to ask questions I didn't want to answer yet. “You don't want to talk about it?” Rebecca asked and I shook my head ‘no’. “Okay, understood let's talk about something else” she immediately changed the subject and I was glad she did. “Okay, if you say so” Danielle agreed

“You know I miiisssed you so much,” I said putting the whole spoon of ice cream in my mouth. We were sitting in front of a superstore that sells ice cream also and was eating mince pies and ice cream. People passed by giving us weird looks for sitting on the pavement but we didn't mind them but concentrated on our snack. We weren't using their but to sit, so what's their problem. After I saw him sitting on the pedestrian walkway I found out it was in front of his house and he invited me in but I declined and suggested we got ice cream instead. Now here we are munching this great snack. I love it so much. “I was thinking of how I was going to talk to you, not the greetings we gave each other during the week.”
