All Chapters of When we met again: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

I forced myself to continue watching the sports programme my father was ardently watching. I definitely didn't feel like watching or listening to anything at that moment, not even my favorite sport. I had more serious things to think of than to think of how Chelsea were at the top of the premier league table and Manchester United were no where to be found, when I had my unresolved situation with Veronica. After going through everything that happened, I knew I probably deserved her ire. But I didn't think she would have been so angry she wouldn't have checked up on me. Wanting to stop feeling bad about it, I kept telling myself that she probably called me but couldn't get me as I wasn't with my phone. But as time passed, my anxiousness grew and I wanted out of the hospital. I looked around the large VIP room my parent had transferred me to the other night. The rich really knew how to live; even their hospital rooms were something extraordinary. Everytime I found myself enjoying the b

Kelly slipped quietly out of the house, intending to go visit her father at home. She turned back to see if she was being watched, only moving when she was satisfied she wasn't.Mama B had already advised her not to think about her father and keep praying for all to be well, but she needed to see him. Maybe, just maybe, he would see her and feel remorseful for sending her out of his house.    As she walked briskly to her house, hiding her figure with a black cap, black sweater and a pair of black running pants, she thought back to her unfaithful night with the idiot that got her pregnant. She couldn't believe everything happening to her, it was like she was the harbinger of doom and she gave brought it to all around her. Her father's new wife, Sharon, didn't miss every opportunity to tell her that she was nothing but evil. Kelly wiped the tears that had rolled down her face with the back of her hand as she opened

In another hospital somewhere in a small town in Seattle, Kelly sat down, staring into space, totally unaware of her surrounding. She kept repeating the moment she forcefully freed herself from her father and he rolled down the stairs, breaking his head. When Sharon had come in, blood had already been flowing out of his head. She stood to the side, unable to help as Sharon quickly unbuttoned her thick shirt and placed it over the wound. The blood just kept flowing till the paramedics arrived. Sharon didn't want to allow her into the ambulance, pushing her out and calling her a killer. The neighbors that had come out to watch the whole thing began to look at her, judging her for whatever had happened in the house. Even Arnie, the old man living beside them, yelled at her."You killed your ma, now you want to kill your pa too? Have you no conscience?" He had yelled with his old, croaky voice.She wiped the tears she hadn't known were falling down her face, c

Florence had been hearing an anguished cry for close to ten minutes now and she began to feel fear, wondering who could be by their gate. Curious, she opened the door to her balcony and stood, looking through the spaces between the iron. "Tom!" She called when she saw her son, sitting on the floor, a bottle beside him. Immediately, she turned and ran inside, rushing down the stairs. In no time, she got out of the compound and ran to the gate."Tom! Tom! What's going on?" She drew him to her, trying her best not to gag as he was stinkingly drunk. She tried to lift him but he was heavy, when she saw she couldn't do it alone, she ran to the house Infront of hers to get her neighbor.She banged on the door, not caring if she was disturbing. Jared, her neighbor, opened the door immediately, wearing only his pajama bottoms, his perfectly sculpted chest open for all to see. Florence tried her best not to blush, as she tried to comport herself. "Flore

San Francisco (Darlington suites)11:32 am, MondayTom stood in front of the twenty-five storey building hotel open to those that had the means to afford its opulence. He could have gone in, but he felt safer waiting for Duncan on the street. Early that morning when he had woken up and realized he had told his mother he owed Chronos up to two hundred thousand, shame filled him like nothing else could. He felt ashamed because he should have known better than to get into gambling, he tried his best to stop but it was like he couldn't break it. Paul had bailed him out many times till he became fed up with his non repentance. He shivered as he drew his coat to cover him more; the weather was usually cold that morning, something people kept saying was due to the climate change the world was currently trying to battle. He scoffed loudly, why didn't world leaders help people wbo had real problems, instead, they do nothing but waste resources on things like going green and all tho
