> * Some people live out their dreams while others wake up from it. * **** * Happy 50 chapters, readers! * ------ Author's POV ------ With Mira laying on Joseph, the two gazed deeply into each other's eyes. Though they try as much as possible to hide it. but at that moment, they couldn't deny the attraction they felt towards each other. Their relationship had gotten to a stage where they didn't even need to say anything to each other as their eyes said it all. Though they still tried to hide it. Why? Because they feared this new attraction might put their friendship in jeopardy. One thing they couldn't deny though, is that their simple friendship was turning into something deeper and that scares them a whole lot. Clearing his throat, Joseph spoke up while still staring Into Mira's hazel colored eyes. “ I don't find other girls attractive as I suddenly realize that my best friend is more beautiful than all the others. ” “ Ah!

> * If you want to enjoy life, learn to live in balance, work, worship, pray and rest. All work, with nothing else produces a person who lives a complicated, complex and joyless life. * **** Joseph and Miranda sat by side on a wooden bench with metal art forging, in the busy children amusement park. The environment was hustling and bustling with children running around happily and their parents making sure they were alright. Despite the less serene environment, the latter still felt comfortable and nostalgic as they thought about their own childhood, which they could tag as the good old days. Things were ever so simple and peaceful then. Being so young and less knowledgeable about the real world, they always had reasons to be happy and smile as they weren't burdened with so many responsibilities and knowledge. It's no wonder it's been said that childhood is one of the best times of a child's life. That's absolutely true as kids don't have much to worry about, unlike th

> * We can be changed as we worship and behold God, and not as we look at ourselves, adding up our many flaws. * **** — Author's Pov — Joseph had always tried to keep the incidents of their childhood and the past to himself, as they made them feel nostalgic. But now that they were already dwelling on it. He felt it was pointless of him trying to hide the truth. “ Mira. ” “ Yeah. ” She replied without raising her head from his shoulders. “ Do you remember, Breakthrough amusement park? ” The name of that particular amusement park caught her attention and she became ever curious about it. “ I do. What's up with it? ” “ Do you remember going there as a child? ” Joseph treaded carefully. “ Of course I do. My parents and I made it a Saturday ritual to go to the amusement park so it became a habit. ” “ Okay. Do you recall the day pandemonium broke out and all the kids were told to hide? ” “ Yeah. The day is one I will never forget given how scared and frightened I was.

> * Some things should just be left in the past because it's already history. * **** ------ Mira. ----- The revelation left me stunned and full with wonder. I still found it difficult to comprehend that my childhood friend and my best friend are the same person. Like how much of a coincidence it really is. Or maybe it isn't really, because growing up I'd always preferred having make friends than females, partly because as an only child, I'd always craved having a male elder sibling, but never got. I'd never desired a female sibling, as I heard from those who have how tasking and tiring it can be. As petty fights and arguments become the order of the day. Secondly, I'd always noticed my difference and uniqueness from a very young age and realized that I'd never truly been able to blend properly with fellow females, this was until I met Evelyn who changed the narrative. Perhaps this is why I'm less affected hearing them gossip behind me. I was different, so of course being

> * Some people can brighten up your day without having to do anything at all. * **** — Author's Pov — “ What are you thinking so deeply about, Miranda? ” Joseph inquired, interrupting her thoughts. “ I wonder how things would have turned out if you never left when we were younger. ” “ Well, I can't say for sure. Perhaps, we would have been able to grow up together and possibly become more closer than this. And maybe, Mom and Dad wouldn't have gotten divorced and our education wouldn't have been delayed. ” “ Hm. In Spite of all that has happened, I deeply believe that everything that happened to us happened for a good reason. It’s probably part of the greater picture. ” “ Maybe. ” “ Though I still wish, we didn't have to go through all we did. ” “ Same here. ” “ Life can be really unpredictable and we find ourselves asking why. But life wouldn't be so fun if we got everything we wanted every time. It would have been less adventurous if we didn't have to go through s

> * When you find your identity in the one who created you. It changes your whole perspective. * **** They made up their minds to try out the rides after snacking. They sat side by side, as they worked on strapping the belts securely around them. “ It's really amusing to know that you haven't been on a ferry ride before. ” Joseph commented, seeing how nervous Mira was. “ You don't know anything so just shut up! ” She said sharply, still holding a grudge. “ Ah. ” Miranda started shivering in fear as soon as the ride started moving. Joseph stifled a laughter watching her. “ You don't have to feel so scared, Miranda. You won’t fall. I never thought you were a scaredy cat. ” “ Jerk! ” She muttered under her breath. Despite her action, he still held her close while assuring her that she was okay and safe. The wheel stopped and the passengers began alighting one at a time from it. A girl around Mira's age stopped at their seats. “ Girl, you are so lucky to have a loving

> * The most difficult place to be in life is God's waiting room ( when you are in a hurry for something to happen but God isn't. ) * **** ------- Joseph ------- I was on my way back to my room to take a shower when my phone rang. I knew who it was without having to double check, who could it be if not Vera? Swiping up the answer button, I picked up the call. “ Wassup, Vera? ” I didn't know how cold my heart had become until I addressed her by her first name like anyone else. She didn't seem to detect that though. “ Hi, Joe. I'm calling to inform you that I'm almost at your place. ” “ Oh. I'll be expecting you. ” “ Sure. See you in fifteen minutes. ” “ Okay. ” The call disconnected soon after. “ Was that Vera? ” I turned to face Nanny who was staring inquisitively at me. “ Yeah, she's on her way. ” “ Okay. We'll have to start preparing for a good show. ” Her smile reminded me that despite it all, she was with me and it meant a lot, really. “ Don't be too aggressive

> * Always remember, God loves you. He doesn't love anybody else, one grain of sand more than he loves you. * **** ------ Joseph ------ Her reaction stunned me to the core and all of a sudden, I was unable to recognize the girl in front of me. It was then I realized how wrong it was to judge a book by its cover. If I had any doubts, then it was cleared up the moment she opened her mouth. “ You idiot. ” She hissed. “ How dare you get back together with that traitor you call a best friend? Who gave you the effrontery to do something as big as this behind my back, fool? ” “ Tsk, my guess is right after all. You are nothing but a wolf in sheep's clothing. ” “ You were deceived by my act, weren't you? I had actually thought you were intelligent and smart, who would have thought that you'll fall for appearances alone. ” “ It's a pity, Vera. How easy it was for me to compel you to reveal your true nature. This makes me wonder what will happen if you lose that so-called bet

> * I am hoping that you can trust the one who keeps the time clock, with all your heart. * **** ------ Miranda. ------ I received a call from Evelyn minutes after Jose stepped out of my room. She really kept her promise of calling me everyday. I don't make promises, as I am not good at keeping them. So I'm super amused at how she'd been able to keep hers. “ Hey, girl. ” “ Hi, Mira. How are you? ” Her voice was filled with enthusiasm as always. “ I'm doing great. What about you? ” “ I’m okay. How was your day? ” “ It was alright. Yours? ” “ Same here. ” “ Uh-huh. ” “ So tell me, did you go out with Joseph today? ” “ I did. How did you know about it? ” “ It’s not a secret as everyone at school knows about your little get away. ” “ How's that even possible? We didn't inform anyone about it, okay? ” “ Well, log into the school online platform to see. ” “ Okay. I will do that. ” “ By the way, are you sure you and Joseph aren't dating? Because you two act more like

> * God has not forgotten about you and he knows exactly what's going on in your life. * ***** ------ Author's POV ----- The next day, The trio's appearance caused a stir, as expected. Some of the students who weren't used to seeing the three of them together gossiped while some wondered what caused the sudden change. They ignored the gazes they got as they headed to their classes. At the assembly, the disciplinary team apologized to both Miranda and Joseph for punishing them unfairly. Nevertheless, the fact that they've been once suspended and sent to detention will forever remain a stain on their school record.
