" I didn't want to come here." Deloise started, " Matter of fact, I was ready to never speak to you again."Esther observed her daughter speak very calmly and shook inside of her. Unconsciously, she readied her heart for an unknown impact she felt was coming. " But I couldn't.." Deloise's words triggered a wave of relief, " these past few days I've spent hating you, but last night, I couldn't bear the fact that I left you home alone despite my anger." Esther's stoic stance cracked at her daughter's words." Mummy I don't know why you do not want to support me, I don't know why you are so against the idea of me being an actress, I don't know what your reason forced you to even contemplate disowning me in regards to this issue." Deloise sniffed, " I've been so consumed with thinking these past few days. I thought of a time when you weren't there for me and I came up empty. A time when you didn't love, care and cater to me while being a single parent and- "Anna couldn't hold back her

" I can't believe I'll be resuming with my best friend," Anna said excitedly." I'm glad that you feel that way Ann," Deloise muttered, clearly not as excited. " Help me zip this up." She said, struggling with her bag." Last time I checked you didn't help me when I was getting packed so why should I?" She sassed, having way too much fun seeing Deloise sitting on a clearly overpacked luggage." P-please Anna, I don't want this to-"RIPPPP!!The horrible sound of her luggage tearing apart filled the air, and Anna looked like a deer in headlights. " Maybe I stretched that a little bit.." She cringed at her friend's deranged look. " This is so fucked up! We leave tomorrow, what am I going to do? Where do I start?" She growled, her hand combed through her hair and she took in the damage.Anna saw the turmoil in her eyes and immediately sourced out another option. Her eyes caught a box deep inside the closet and before Deloise could protest, she dragged it out." Anna, don't open-"" It'

The girls settled into the school, and built a three way friendship with Amanda - a freshman they met in the school banquet. Amanda was the social one, always getting invited and showing up to the school's events with the girls.It was school hours and the girls went out to do some filing. " When are you going to ask that boy out, Ann?" Amanda started, " we all know you feel something."Anna felt ruffled, " I don't want to rush into Anything." She replied, but Amanda wasn't having it." Rush into anything? I'm not asking you to have sex with him, girl. Maybe go out on a date?" She suggested, " I mean, you've been in the awkward friendship phase for too long." " Now you're getting on my nerves. Can we drop this?" She hissed.Seeing the case was getting thick, Deloise intervened. " When Ann is ready to take that step, you'll be the first to know, Amanda." She lectured, and Amanda raised her hands in mock surrender. " You can also drop the attitude, Ann. That tea is long overdue." Del

Deloise stood nervously in the kitchen, rigorously turning the batter for the first and last cake she was baking within the college wallsHow did she know? Because she finally decided to leave. No going back now.Ever since she had the conversation with her mother, she was convinced of exactly what it is she must do. Her mother made her stance clear as regards the matters of her happiness and she truly believed this was the right choice - It had to be.Deloise felt certain that her decision would prove to be her best decision yet. This time, she wasn't letting anyone discourage or stop her. Not her mother, not her friends, and definitely not herself.She made peace with the fact that she must pursue her dreams. Even if it meant doing so alone. After preparing the cake, she made dinner. She'd previously asked the girls to come around this evening for what she referred to as a surprise dinner.Anna was skeptical when she asked for space to prepare the said surprise dinner but she manage

Daniel watched as she visibly struggled for words, failing every time to produce something. His smirk graduated into a full-blown smile seeing her antics around him." Miss Deloise," He called her, " I'm sorry we had to meet under such…circumstances, " He hesitated a little, lacking proper words to explain his stunt. Afterwards, he continued, " Glad to finally meet you." He reached out his hand for a formal meeting.Deloise grabbed his hand with both hands and shook excitedly, " Nice to meet you too, sir! I'm a big fan of yours!" She said with sweaty palms, " I can't believe it's you!"" Glad we cleared that up," he smiled, " you may go now, straight to the Royal Arts," Daniel ordered, and the driver maneuvered the car through the roads, next stop, Royal Arts Academy.During the journey, the duo spoke on various topics in conversation, each more passionate than the last, they never seemed to run out.
