The days were rolling fast and I had been trying my best in avoiding Liliane, and Miss Donna, at all cost.Even intentionally missing school. I would rather stay back home and do nothing than lose my value by meddling with those two lesbians. I thought highly of myself, and preferred modesty and upholding good morals, even though sometimes I crossed the lines– not as much as theirs though. But even though I liked that I stayed clean, it was all that mattered. I decided to pull up at school but keep a low profile. Liliane would surely see me, but I would try as much as possible not to let Miss Donna see me. I was in class, when Beth and Liliane gathered around Halen. It wasn't a good mood. I didn't care too much about it anyway, Halen hated me, it was only fair to dislike her as well. Unlike Liliane, she wasn't so active, as she would normally be in class, she seemed cold. Her face was pale, and her eyes were reddish, though not too much, but it just wasn't clear e
Work the next day for me was like hell. When I saw Halen, she looked well, better than the last day, but it didn't matter anymore. She had gone from my dislike list to my hate list, for the first time. Her presence was like a threat to my existence, and the humiliation itself. And I couldn't bring myself to look at her face, as long as I could. She might not be the culprit, but they were all the same. But she seemed to be okay, she seemed to have forgotten about what happened, and I was the one getting the rip of it all. So it is what they say about grudges. It is like drinking poison, and expecting it to kill someone else. That was the case with me, the whole thing was like poison to me, while I hoped it would affect Halen. But I had something else to get my mind away from Halen and everything else. My lovely amazing Kale. As always, he shone. Just seeing his face made me feel better, and his smile made my heart merry. He walked to my seat, with his charmi
I was quiet, but my brain and my heart wasn't. I was baffled. I held the paper and read it's content again. I still didn't want to believe she was referring to me. I thought it might be a trick, and if it was, I'm braced up to not fall for it. She passed on another paper. "Are you going to write back or not?" My heart was beating, I didn't know what I was into. She just said sorry! She apologized! I looked at the writings on the papers over and over again and decided to write back since she was starting to grow worried. “Umm okay.” I wrote back, and passed on the paper to her. She read it and replied to me immediately. “Is that all you have to say?” “I don't know… what else can I say?” I didn't even know what to reply to her, to start with. But I had to keep the conversation going, even if it was just a trick, I had to play along. “Does that mean you have forgiven me?” She wrote back. But It took me some time before replying. “Yes sure,
But she pretended she wasn't looking my way. She went back inside after someone called her , and I shrugged it off. I didn't feel like getting back at that moment, so I decided to take a walk around. And through the hallway, I started walking around, with my eyes fixed at where I was going, and my head fixed at Kale and what was really wrong with Halen. I passed through an empty office with three seniors in it, discussing and laughing. I rolled well with them. It got my attention without me allowing it. I knew them well though, although we weren't friends, we rolled well. Plus, they were from my county, and I knew their family well enough, especially Peter. "Hey Arianne!" He called out, as I was near the window, and he must have seen me walk across the door. "Yo what's up?" I said, going into the office. His face was bright, and he looked happy. "I heard someone cried yesterday?" He asked, with a mischievous smile. "I … I don't know?" I real
Suddenly, time slowed down, the noises I had been hearing became distant, and only the beating of my heart was audible, as it slowed down as well, beating rhythmically. My head suddenly became free of thoughts. And my whole body responded to the call of shock. My eyes stayed still and wide open, and my lungs respired slowly. "Arianne… Arianne Arianne" the voice came, first it was distant, but the last call which was followed by a tap on the shoulder took time to where it needed to be, and how it needed to go, and I saw myself immersed in the world again. "Yes!" I exclaimed. Like someone who had gotten back from another world. "So what do you say?" She asked, eager for an answer. "Um are you… serious?" I stumbled on my words, picking the race up again. I was still in shock. How could it be true? Was she just teasing me? And why the hell was I even thinking about it? What would Matt Jones do? Or would he simply not give a fuck, or, was it just a plan
You don't reply to my texts, pick my calls or even return it" she snarled. When she said that I rolled my eyes and sighed. I thought she was going to talk about something important. As usual, I didn't have much to say to her. "I mean, you two do your thing before I even got in between, why can't you two just continue your shit as you have been doing? Must I be involved? By the way, I have just been busy, you know" I defended myself. She stared at me, and with the angry look on her face, I knew she wasn't even joking. And she might do something stupid or nasty. So I was extra careful. "Are you serious right now? What am I going to do with him when he isn't even around? Do you really love me, Arianne?" I was silent for a while. "Yes I do, but so what? You know what would happen if Matt find out about us—" "To hell with Matt! This is my life, and I don't care—" "Easy to say…" I said, lowering my voice. "But I'm the one married to him" She sighed.
Days turned into weeks and weeks turned into months, Matt Jones still wasn't back. He had been touring the world on his business summit, and I had a long moment of peace, love and happiness that I never thought existed. However, my relationship with Kale didn't really go as smooth as expected. There was Halen, and she was both an enemy and a lover. Her jealousy would kill me, so I decided to choose her over Kale, for the good of everyone. Halen was the kind of girl with an angelic smile and a dreadful temper. I loved her nagging, I loved her stubbornness, I was in love with all of her, and everything about her. But sometimes in life, There's always a hole waiting for us to fall in, and once we do, we don't get out of it, even if we do eventually, it will always be in our memory panel that we were once in a hole, a dark hole. ~ No matter how much someone loves you, they are still capable of hurting you, very much. ~ The instructors might have finished their s
Sweet and appetizing aromas floating around the house, on every corner and on every spot, was what woke me up when it crossed the junction that led to my savory smell gland through my nostrils. I woke up and checked the time, it was already 9am in the morning. Wow! I must have had a long night. I glanced around my room and was displeased at the state it was, my clothes hung all over the place like cobwebs, my bed sheet and bed covers rumbled down to the ground, and I wondered if I had slept with someone else, or even two more people. Perhaps, it might be the dream manifesting into reality. All through the night I had weird dreams with someone. Dreams that occur mostly, when you think about someone so much. However, there was one particular matter I wasn't paying attention to, one that I needed to pay attention to anyway. The sweet aromas weren't leaving, plus, it wasn't alone. It had children, and grandchildren. Someone was cooking different foods with diff
