That day’s morning was probably one of the rarest ones, because nobody called me early in the morning, letting me know that they got in trouble.
I woke up at six A.M. I washed my face, brushed my teeth and had a shower. Then, I went to my wardrobe to choose, what to wear. I wanted, as usual, wear the first things I found in my bedroom, but I thought about it again and decided to wear something unusual. I can say, that I found some benefits of dating with Steven Kirby. He made me understand who was Raf King and also he gave me more confidence in myself. I started feeling desired in this life and I was ready to slay!I chose to wear a black shirt and denim jacket, also denim jeans. It was the only outfit I could make because of the lack of the clothes. I decided to go shopping that day after school.When I finished getting ready, I went downstairs and saw Linc and dad making breakfast.“Good morning, everybody!” I screamed hap
“Raf, calm down!” Dylan stated.“No! What the hell is he doing here?” Raf screamed with clenched teeth.“He is sitting with us, if you are blind and can’t see the obvious!” I quipped and got up.“Walker, take your boyfriend and get out, or I don’t know what I will do with this place, or with his face!”“He is staying here with me. No one is against it, if you are, then nobody is keeping you!” I stated and pointed at the other table.He looked into my eyes. Suddenly, he grabbed my hand and took me outside the cafeteria.“Take your hands off of me!” I screamed, but he didn’t stop. When we were outside the cafeteria, he started:“Listen! I don’t want to hurt you physically, but I won’t hesitate to hurt you mentally. Because I am this type of person! So-“ I interrupted him and asked:
That was the moment, when I understood that this whole time, I had been helping Raffael King’s sister. Mrs. King ran to the entrance, screaming:“Where is she?!”When she stopped near the doors, she saw me and Alexa. She quickly pulled her to herself and hugged her. She was shaking from fear.“Mom, I’m okay! Kylie helped me find you!” Alexa stated with a smile.Mrs. King looked at me, supposing that I was that Kylie.“Come in, please!” she invited me, pulling Alexa aside and taking her hand.I came in.She led me to the living room and offered me to sit down on the couch.“Would you like a cup of coffee or cup of tea, or anything you want!” she asked me.I wanted to refuse and I started shaking my head and hands, but she interrupted me and avered:“We owe you! I would like you to sit with me, drink anything yo
“James! Come in!” Mrs. King exclaimed.James? He came into the living room and looked at me. It was a dark-haired, tall, green-eyed boy. He looked so familiar, at first. Then I recalled that night when Raf and I went to some house and there was that boy, beaten up. Though, he looked arresting.“Hey!” he stated, after some time staring at me.“Hey!”“James!” he stretched out his hand.“Kylie!” I shook his hand.Though Alexa was sitting near me, James came to us, pushed her a little and sat between us, looking at me. I smiled awkwardly and looked back at Mrs. King. “Kylie saved me from having a heart attack!” Mrs. King stated and laughed.“What?” James asked bewildered. I laughed too.“I’m kidding! But I could have had it, if Kylie hadn’t been there to help her. Alexa ran away from home to find me, e
The next day started as usually. I didn’t have any new clothes, as a result of my new acquaintances with the Kings. Lincoln and I went to school. And I was with Steven all the time, while Linc, Raf, Dylan and Jeremy were staring at us, talking and speculating about why all of it had started. Even though, Lincoln knew everything, I was sure that he wouldn’t disclose me. Most of my lessons were with Raf, so I had to see him a lot. I had to catch his glances on me, hear whispers mentioning my name and just feel the tension. During the lunch nothing happened. I decided to prevent any altercation from happening, sidestepping the drama, so I sat with Steven, far from my friends. It was difficult to stay away from them, but I had to. Mia still wasn’t at school. When I called her she told me that she would come soon. Well, she couldn’t definitely stay in hospital when the Halloween party was about to be in full swing. After the les
“Kylie, I’m going too! I will give you a lift!” he exclaimed.“No, Raffael! Thank you! But I have to go to the animal shelter.”“Really? Today?” he asked me bewildered.“Yes, today is the day I got my payment. When I get it, I buy everything for these 2 places and visit them, helping animals and children.”“I do the same. But I don’t-“ I interrupted him:“But you don’t work! I know! It’s just, I work only for these places. I don’t waste my money on myself!” I said and was about to leave, when he stated:“I will come with you! I want to help animals too!”I was surprised, but I thought that animals could also use his help. I concured and we went to his car, but at first, he put my bike in his trunk.When we started driving, I decided to ask him about the orphanage:“They know you very wel
24 hours after the party:“He...he...” I started shocked and nearly crying, having that spine-chilling picture imprinted on my mind.“Please, calm down, Ms. Walker! Tell us, what he did?” the police officer asked.“He wanted to rape me!” I screamed, my voice echoing around the room, and started crying. 48 hours before the party:It was 6 A.M in the morning. I had to get up and got ready for school. Mia was discharged from the hospital yesterday in the evening. She asked me to come to her and she wanted to drive us to school.60 hours before the party: I got the call from Mia in the evening, when Raf took me home. I was about to fall asleep, when she called me.“Hey, Ky!” she started. “Mia? Do you know what time it is now?” I asked her sleepily, rubbing the sleep from my eyes.“It&rs
“Hey,” I stated and went back to reiterating my homework. He was on his phone. “Why aren’t you repeating? You will get a bad mark, teacher hates you!”“Why are you worrying about me?” he asked, as he got closer.I sat a little bit farther from him and answered:“I don’t! I am thinking about teacher. She will get annoyed because of you, again!” I explained and trailed off.“I don’t worry about Spanish. It’s my second native language. I’m half Spanish, remember? I know it better than the teacher!” he stated and went back to his phone.Then we had literature. The topic was classic genre.“Which English authors you can name from classic genre?” Mr. Adams asked. I raised my hand, but so did Raf, which caught me off guard.“Raf, please name them!” teacher asked.“Jane Austen, sisters Bron
14 hours before the party:I was in the dark basement.“Hello!” I called, but nobody answered. “Is anybody here?” I continued going through some dark, narrow corridor.“Kylie...” I heard whispers.“Who is here?” I asked.“Kylie, don’t be scared! I’m here!” the voice echoed in my ears.I didn’t say anything.“Kylie! Kylie! Stop! Don’t listen! Don’t go! It’s a trap!” I heard my mom’s voice.“Mom? What?! What are you talking about?”The unknown voice started laughing. I had goosebumps covering my skin. I was scared, but I continued walking further. I didn’t know why.“Kylie! I love you!” I heard Mom’s voice again.“Mom? I love you too! I miss you so much! Do you hear me?” I screamed.Then I started hearing
