Can you keep a secret Let's play the game
Chapter 1Sitting at my study desk, my hand moved rhythmically with the dancing pen on my notebook scrambling numbers against numbers. Calculus can be a very interesting topic but it gets tiring to some extent especially when it’s been given to you as an assignment. I’ve been on this assignment for close to 2 hours now which has caused the muscles in my forearms to spasm. With my eyes heavy, I decided to take a break. I left the books opened on the desk as I went to grasp my phone from the dresser. I laid down on my bed with my back leaning my head against the pillow then I turned on my connection as I came online. I shuffled through Facebook viewing posts and comments. None of my friends are online so what do you expect me to do? I was now engrossed in my phone until a text popped into my phone. It was from some random user who of course I don’t. Curious to see what he or she sent? I clicked on the message. ‘Hi’ came the brief greeting. I’m not the type who usually talks wi
Can you keep a secret Rumors
Chapter 2The rumor of the game is now spreading more than ever before. Like everywhere I go to, the grocery mall and even in the school, I rarely talk without hinting on the dumbass game. I wonder how people could be this clueless, primitive and naive. I mean there are lot of signs there to prove the game false still they decide to neglect their own life to be slaves to rumors. Right now I'm at the school cafe with my best friend bethel. I’ve been rambling about a classic I just read, telling her what I love about the book ‘fences’, an American themed book. I told her what I hate and how I felt about Troll's death, which in my opinion wasn’t supposed to die. While I was busy talking, she kept nodding and mouthing an 'Uh yeah’ oh’ absently mindedly and I almost narrated the entire book before I realized she wasn’t even paying attention instead she was busy operating her phone, deeply engrossed in whatever she was doing. “Bethel...” I snapped at her, making her flinch and her phone
Can you keep a secret A dangerous decision
Chaapter 3 Today has really been a very hectic day. I've been cruising around town with my scooter, delivering clothes to dad's customers. Dad is a very prominent dry cleaner here in Texas so you could imagine the multitude of people I had to make deliveries to."God I'm so exhausted..." I yawned lazily while walking into the living room. On opening the door of my room, I was met with zayn curling up in my bed and to my annoyance he was operating my phone? He was so engrossed in it that he never knew how I had walked in. "Zayn..." my voice rang out in annoyance making zayn startled and jumped down to the floor. "Can you explain to me what you were doing with my phone in my room?" I asked sternly, placing my arm on my waist. "Ummm...browsing??" He shrugs and bits his lower lips. And he took a few steps back in order to keep his distance with me. "Seriously? What did I tell you about using people's stuff without taking permission from them?" I yelled exasperated. Honestly what's w

Chapter 4 Laying lazily on my bed, the pigeon on my window made a lovely sound and the birds on the Cheryl tree close to my window sang melodiously to the movement of the wind and the falling leaves.Today is mother's day and I'm supposed to go out with my mom by 1pm but the time is 12pm there's no sign of my mom around and she hasn't called me. I sighed and went to the kitchen to grab a plate of chips and a chilled bottle of water to pass out time. Getting to our sitting room, dad and Zayn are sitting on the sofa watching a program. I just ignored them and went straight to the kitchen.Zayn doesn't even bother about the mothers day outing stuff he prefers to stay at home with dad and spend the whole day watching movies or doing some crazy stuff. After getting everything I needed, I went upstairs to my room. I found my phone ringing hoping to see my mom's face on the screen. I rushed to my bedside to check the caller but to my disappointment it's my female bestie that's calling. I
Can you keep a secret Round 1
Chapter 5 I stared intently at the screen as the phone dings in my palm almost immediately. The speed at which he replied to my message was quite mysterious, it was as if he'd been expecting my message. “Great, you will be playing about five different games on different occasions and be rest assured that once you’ve agreed to this game, you aren’t allowed to stop playing. You must complete all five aspects of the game and if you are able to win at the end of it, a huge sum of reward awaits you.” I Scoffed swinging my legs in the air as I kept staring at my screen waiting for him to finish typing...‘And here are the rules of the game which must be observed and followed. Hence the rules are. You are quite aware that this game is themed. ‘Can you keep a secret?’ Which means 1. Once you start playing this game you mustn’t tell anyone about it. 2.

Can you keep a secret Chapter 6
Standing before the mirror, I slipped my hair into a ponytail and then started checking out my uniform to be sure nothing was left out. With my gaze still on the mirror, I saw my door creaked open and mum walked in. She was in a gray colored suit, the same dress she had worn yesterday morning. “Clarisa dear?" Her smile reflected in the mirror."So you finally remembered you have a home” I just rolled my eyes, staring at her through the mirror. “Clarissa I understand that you must be very upset about yesterday." She said quietly as she placed her palm on my shoulder. “I am so sorry for not showing up again as promised. The thing is I got really busy at work." "You always say that.” I turned around so I could face her. “It's always work work. You can't even squeeze a minute of your time and share it with your family. All you think and care about is your work." "What? You know that's not true right? I love you so much and whatever I'm doing right now is because I want to make you h

Chapter 8 My mom rushed in, I couldn't even make a move or sound, I just laid there like a heap of sand staring at my brother's corpse. Hell! I couldn't still believe that had happened, he can't really be dead right?It was just a graze from a pillow not that it had actually hit him, how is it that he is dead, it's not possible, it's not.. I scrutinized his face waiting for him to say 'got you!' and then I would spank his ass or tweak his ears but the longer I waited for this to happen the longer it took.Tears built up in my eyes threatening to fall, I felt a hand snuck through my back. I strained my neck backwards and met my mum. She had tears streaming down her cheeks, her hands trembling as she bent down to hold me. "Mum." I sniveled and she cupped my cheeks into her palm saying soothing words to me."I didn't do it, I didn't.. do it." My eyes pleaded, she nodded with a quiver and hugged me to her chest. My hands wrapped around her as I watched my dad and the emergency nurses pul
