Chapter 6
My mom prepared my life’s blue print, and in the blue print one of the important details there was the kind of people I had to interact with, the kind of friends I was to make and the kind of people I should have business with. The blueprint only allowed me to mingle with the rich, the smart, straight, famous and prestigious people and anything asides that was banned.My mom had barged into my hostel room when I was just about to talk and yep it wasn’t a friendly scene.“Are these indecent girls going to share a room with you peach?” she asked me as I tried to shut her up“Who the hell are you guys” she asked while analyzing the two British girls that were in the room I got assigned to.“Um this is our room” the second girl answered in a rude tone.“Ohh no the both of you can not be in this room” my mom added“And why can’t we ma’am” the first girl asked“Cos my peach is in this room and my peach cannot be found sharing a room with you guys” she added as she pointed at them in disgust.“And what is wrong with us?” the first girl asked“The both of you are in the category of people we do not associate ourselves with, low lives, indecent brats, I mean look at you” she pointed at the first girl “Your entire body is covered with tattoos, everywhere indecent tattoos, a tattoo of a naked female beside your left ear, a skull on your collar bone, yeesshh or do I have to point out the piercings, you pierced you nipple for goodness sake who knows maybe you pierced your hole too. And then there is you” she added as she turned her direction to the second girl. “You are very pretty, people as pretty as you wear good clothes to get good boys not bad boys but look at you, I can practically see your butt hole here and your top doesn’t even cover anything why bother wearing a dress when the dress has no use”. She concludedI watched them stare at her in fury, she over did it, personally I would feel bad if my choice of attire and lifestyle is insulted. She was about to say more when I cut in.“Mom that is enough, enough’ I quickly added“No peach let me show these British hoes their place”.“Mom please let us go outside and discuss this” I pleaded“No peach I’m not done talking yet” she replied as the girls chuckled.“Yes peach why do not let your sassy mother finish the nastiness she came here with” the first girl added as my mom glared at her, they both laughed.“You see what I’m talking about they are not only indecent in their looks but they also have sharp tongues, although the tongue should fit the owner so I’m not surprised” she continued“Please mom let it go, let us go outside and discuss this” I pleaded as I grabbed her arm“Fine let’s go and yeah stay away from my peach” she concluded as I dragged her out immediately before she could say any other thing.“Why are you dragging me peach, you should have left me to give them every piece of I had inmy mind “she added“Peach you are not staying in that room” she continued“Mom please let this one slide” I said“I’m not letting anything slide I’m going to the dean’s office and I’m reporting what just happened plus I’ll ensure he changes rooms for you and places you with people your type” she added as she turned to leave, I grabbed her arm“Mom please just let this one slide, I know you are worried and unhappy, I know and I know there are not the type of people I should mingle with, but I do not want to create a scene on my first day, plus I’m just sleeping in the same room as them I’m not going to fuck with them, just trust me” I said“I trust you peach; I really do it’s them I do not trust, I mean did you look at them?” she asked“I did and they both looked British and I know of a fine ass single mom who is from Manchester, England” I added as I smirked“humph that’s the problem, British girl are not like this I’m embarrassed as it stands, I’m sure the queen would be disappointed” she added as we both laughed. Then I held her hand and looked her in the eye.“listen mom, trust peach that’s all you need she will be fine, I’ll change rooms in my sophomore year” I added“Promise?” she asked“I promise, now get your pretty ass to the lot it’s getting late” I concluded as we both went towards the lot. **********We got to the parking lot as we made our way to the car, she opened the car door to get in“Okay peach, I trust you but do not break that trust” she said as she hugged me“I won’t mom I promise” I concluded as she kissed my hair“My baby girl is all grown up” she added as she entered her car.I watched as she started the car and I waved, I watched her drive through the lot then the road, I stood and watched her until her car disappeared, we will miss that sassy ass warrior.My mom left and I made my way back into the room, I got to the door and I hesitated before opening it, when I opened it the girls stopped what they were doing and looked at me“Um hey” I said hesitant.“Hey peach” the first girl said as she was trying to make fun of my mom“Do not let these bad, indecent, rude girls influence you” The second girl added as they both laughedI just stood and looked at them I didn’t know the right words to use.“Your mom looked at us with disgust in her eyes, like we are not kids of other people” the second girl continued“I’m sorry” I finally spoke“Oh, little peach can actually talk” the first girl said mockinglyI do not like this one, subconscious spoke. She should that with all those frightening tattoos she has and her uncountable piercings, no mother would want her child near her and still she has guts to talk to you rudely.“What is wrong with peach tiff, is she not only dumb but deaf too, she did not hear anything I just said” she continued.“Look I already said I’m sorry, you don’t have to drag it” I added“Oh, she has sass in her too wow, looks like the damn apple does not fall far from the fucked up tree” she added“That’s enough Sam” the second girl cut in“No Tiffany, peach over here should have a taste of the poison her mom dished out do not you not think” Sam replied as she looked at me“You can lay all you have on me but don’t bring up my mom” I added“Oh, but she started it with her shitty tongue” she continued“Hey!” I screamed while I moved towards her“Okay that’s enough girls” Tiffany quickly intervenedCHAPTER 33 The sight, the sight that was before me, was wondrous. a white frothy cascade of water falling into a plunge pool, the rocky outcroppings lined up vertically close to the pool, lichen, moss spread out on the horizon, slippery rock to walk on across the fall, lush grasses of pale green adding to the aesthetic, plants and flowers of different sizes, colors and shapes, i could have i sworn i saw one shaped like a butterfly, a light fog by the waterside, sprays on light water touching the rocks, rainbows, ripples and droplets on the grasses by the horizon, trees clinging to cliffs and overhanging the pool, butterflies sucking pollen from the flowers,birds flying in groups above the sky, flies of colors catching flights with the birds, dragonflies speeding past the eyes, fish splashing in the pool, sun baked rocks, soft beds of grass nearby… I can't even describe all, I looked and I was dumbfounded "This...This is bea
Chapter 32Lying on the bed staring at the 7 inch ceiling decorated with a nice work of aesthetics, I could only imagine the grid of suggestions Tiffany would bring to the table to spice up the whole room. I could not speak nor feel the pain that was draining my breath. I did not know how but drops of tears kept rolling from my eyeliner down to my cheeks, I could not bring myself to recognize the direction at which the pain had engulfed me so much that I produced those tears running down. I knew. I knew she was not coming back, I just wanted her to style me once more, for her to tell she puts on me seems to look stunning on me. She was already planning her 21st Birthday party. Tiffany believed so much in birthdays especially those that came with special entourage, but now sadly she could not turn 21 after all. She just died and left everything, absolutely everything.“But why, why” I kept asking myself or possibly the universe, as that night the world looked unfamiliar and through my
Chapter 31“Does it mean Davis has a thing for me now?” I asked myself as I laid on the bed in my room staring at the velvet color mixed with chocolate and milk colored ceiling. Although my relationship with Davis had gotten better, my full emotions had always been locked down with the belief that maybe, just maybe, Davis is playing with my feelings. But then after what he had said to me that evening “I could not bear seeing the both of you together” I have always heard that the only thing that would make a guy display jealousy for a girl is only when he is into her, does it mean Davis is really into me? Well damn girl, he was jealous? Sub con asked. Well yeah, I mean he said it himself so yeah, yeah he was. Woah so Davis, the Davis, Davis Garraway has shown interest towards you, I mean you. The same girl he calls goblin, well that is a really big twist to this story. You really do not need to rub it in that way sub con.Although sub con’s analysis was rather heart breaking she was rig
Chapter 30The afternoon was chill, it was cool and calm, with the cold breeze blowing from every direction, I could feel the wind blowing through my hair and into my ears. I felt peace and everything calm. “So, what will you have?” Derick asked Yep, we were already seated in a restaurant, the Jin&Jin. A British themed restaurant, well after we had our little British America face off and me stating the fact that the English are not one of the people I fancy, Derick decided that there was no other way top make me see the light than to experience it first hand. So here I am seated in the Jin restaurant waiting to be served“Soda water! What will you have?” Derick asked again“Anything American” I said flashing a smile as he chuckled “I see what you are trying to do young lady” he responded “You see what?” I asked“You asked me to place an order and that is what I am doing now” I added“Soda water” he added chuckling “I said place an order from the menu” he continued while I gav
Chapter 29I tried giving her the look of disapproval but my mom being who she is would certainly act like she does not understand the meaning. But hold up champ, what exactly is your problem with Derick coming over to your house for a meal. Well incase you have not realized it all these years but mom hardly invites people to the house for a meal. Well unless she believes it will benefit her in one way or the other. And so? How does that imply to Derick. I mean he is just your department mate who she picked interest in. I see you are not getting the point here sub con, but I would rather not stress it. let us wait for her to make her actions more understandable.Derick looked at her for a while and then he accepted her offer “I will be glad if you do. I will tell Charity to inform you when I have a suitable day within this week.”“Okay Mrs. Goldtown” he replied as he looked at me and winked “I will get going now Soda Water” he concluded as he left. I watched him walk away, well we
Chapter 28Well, I guess life has taken a good turn around for me, I was starting to feel good about myself, I now storm places like I am king. Yeah, storm maker, I do not remember asking for aid while I was talking sub con. You do not need to ask for help I am always available for you whenever you need or do not need me champ. I do not need you to add parts to my narration. Narration? Which narration? The narration where you exaggerate, day dream and then add parts that are not real? Since when do you storm places like a king champ? Lol. Okay I think that enough for now you can now leave. Well harsh, you do not have to chase me away that way champ, I literally come to show you what is true, when you are lost in your own day dream. Well, I do not remember asking you to aid me leave my dream. You can leave now sub con, bye bye. Fine I am going. Well screw that, where was I? oh yeah so, my life took a turn for the better, everything was looking good, I think I had lost that naïve res
