Passion That Burns
Loud laugh vibrated through his chest “ Red is just a street word used to tell a novice apart a wild person. Nothing serious”
“ what do you do here?” I asked. He looked into my eyes and heaved a sigh “ you promised, Bay. You promised to answer my questions”“ Hailey… The casino, my Dad owns it – not all of it – a part of it. It jointly belongs to my Dad and the Mayor. My jaw dropped in shock and I took a step back. Bay pulled me in closer “ I know what you must be thinking. But believe me, some of the activities going on in there is not one that I am proud of”“ You do know it’s illegal to run an underground casino in Fothoman, right? And to think the filthy place is co-owned by our very own Mayor? Bay, this is too much to digest”“ I don’t even know why I’m telling you all of this. I just figured I’ve been keeping a lot of secret from you. And forRelated chapters
FATAL DESIRE Little Did I Know
“ I was out all night with Bay. I am sorry Tams. He made me leave the casino in a hurry and I had to accompany him to a very wild party” Tammy gasped “wild party? That sounds like something I'd wish to be a part of. Tell me, how did it go?... Was it fun?"Emily cleared her throat before I could respond to Tammy's questions, turning both our attention to her. “ Was it mad fun? I’ve never been to a wild party… girl – you are leveling up” she pocked my elbow playfully.“ I will tell you guys all about it after lunch, but for now, I am starving”“ Are you sure you’re doing okay, Hailey? I'm just worried about you” Tammy said “ you've been eating a lot lately. You should watch it before you start to put on so much weight”… “ she’s putting on weight already”… Emily added.I jutted my, running my hands over my dress “ you guys noti
FATAL DESIRE We Are Having A Baby
How do you navigate through the feeling of losing someone you love? I’d need all the help I could get because I am deep sinking into an ocean of pain and heartache and it seems no one truly understand how I am feeling. Before now, expressing grief allowed me get over the pain I felt. But now, I was trying to subside it or better still ignore it and act like – nothing was happening. It is a widely accepted fact that grief has five stages, denial, anger, bargaining, depression and acceptance. once one is through all these stages, they emerge as a better person and they will do great in their lives – the Phoenix must burn to emerge, right?. But what do you do when all these are playing together at once? Will that still be the case? When I mourn, I alienate myself from the world. I either lock myself up in the basement or wander off to the woods, anywhere at all I find peace and quietness. Focus on doing constructive things and things that makes you h
FATAL DESIRE All Things Coming Together For Good
Emily and I found posters for prom plastered all over the hallway while we were on our way to the gym where the basketball teams are practicing. “ What’s your plan for prom? Who is taking you?” Emily asked as she tore out one of the posters from the wall. “ Just add it to the list of things I’d be missing out in” “ Bay isn’t taking you? Girl, this is your time to shine on the dance floor. You finally have a boyfriend. That's the least he can do for you, to make up for all the times he was being a dick”“ I won’t ruin his chance of wearing that golden crown again. We all know how much he loves wearing the crown and Making a dramatic speech. I’d never take that away from him”We’ve barely walked into the gym when the ball Brad was chasing bounced and landed on my feet. He placed his leg on top of it to prevent it from rolling further and placed his hands on his hips as he bl
FATAL DESIRE Break-up
Bay looked at me closely and smirked “ the coach benched me for pushing Brad, he told me to catch up with my studies"“ This has nothing to do with me, right?” I asked, studying him closely. No matter how much he’d try to hide the difficulties he was facing at that point from me, his eyes would still give him away. He looks at me differently – he was avoiding eye contact. “Tell me the truth, how do you feel about this?” of course, I am pregnant, it's okay if he feels miserable.... Afterall, who'd want to be called a teen father?He narrowed his eyes and his eyebrows tugged inwardly “ he should not have spoken to you the way he did. He had no right to do that… I should have done something about Brad earlier” he held out his hand and I placed my hand in his palm. He squeezed my hand into his tightly. Oh? Okay - he isn't mad about the pregnancy. It was his altercation with Brad that set his mode off.I li
FATAL DESIRE Cards That Lift Mood
Mrs. Gupta sat back and looked at us, her face inscrutable as she considered our proposal.“ Mrs. Gupta, the music club is fallen apart because of the way Claire has been running it as the president. You won’t tell me you don’t see what she’s doing or maybe you're just turning a blind eye. She has turned the club into a zone for bullying innocent students who just want to have the opportunity to share their talents – people like me. Those with frail heart who can't keep up with her insolent and rude behavior will only walk away. The Fothoman High Glee club can't keep losing young talented students because of one person"“ The club is fragile, and if you enter it for a competition in this state – I am sorry to say this Mrs. Gupta... But I don’t think Fothoman High Glee club will make 5th position, which will be very embarrassing” Tammy added.“ no one wants to be associated with failure… not even you. I
FATAL DESIRE Who Is Your Date To Prom?
I picked the call and the smile on my face disappeared immediately at what I saw. Jake looked small and exhausted, his skin pale and paper thin. I could not understand how he could’ve changed so much in such a short period of time. He smiled at me, but his smile was weak and straining “ how have you been, Psych?”I couldn’t smile, I couldn’t speak… I just stared at him through the phone screen. I held back the tears in my eyes. If I let even a single tear drop from my eyes, he’d know just how scared I was – I was dead scared. I couldn’t even recognize Jake. He was completely gone – the vibrant and all bubbly Jake I fell madly love with almost looked like he was vanishing.“ psych, did you get my gift?” he asked.“ yes… they are lovely. Thank you so much” “ I’m glad you like it. I couldn’t think of anything better, I’m sorry”&ldquo
FATAL DESIRE Bleeding Heart
I finished classes for the day and Emily catches up to me at my locker.“ What time are you leaving for Okhlay?” she asked.“ I’m waiting for Bay to finish his practice” my phone vibrated in my jeans pocket and I dropped my heavy backpack on the floor, leaning it against my leg for support. I Slid out my phone and saw that it was Jake. I’ve missed several calls from him as well “ Jake?” I was surprise he’s calling at 2pm when I already told him that we’d be in Okhlay by nightfall.I answered the call and it was Uncle George “ Hailey, come to Newton Hospital… now”“What’s wrong?” I asked but my question met a dead silent from the callers end.My blood ran cold as I tucked my phone into my pocket. There's no good reason why Uncle George would be calling me from Jake’s phone. I mean, he never called me before… i slammed my locker shut and followed Emily down the hall to the gym. From the tone of my voice, Bay sensed how worried I was and followed me outside the parking lot w
FATAL DESIRE Date To Prom
The day for senior prom was finally here and I was having double feelings about it. I didn’t want to go, not after everything that happened in this past few days. But Bay was very persistent. I didn't go to junior prom so I clearly have no idea of what being to prom feels like.losing virginity on prom night is a common plot point in some of the teen movies I’ve seen but that should be for those who are still virgins, right? To me, there was really nothing there for me. I never danced before, I never thought about dancing before, I am very conscious about dancing – so there is really nothing special about this day for me. It might be for the high school sweethearts who are waiting on this day to finally mate and lose their virginity together on prom night – like Emily and Tammy.“ I never would've made it through this year without you, Ems” I told Emily who was helping me sort cloths from my wardrobe.
