ANMELDEN'No matter what, No matter the time, No matter the place, No matter the century, No matter what's to come, I. will always. CHOOSE. YOU'. Everyone saw her as crazy..... But he saw her as nothing less than perfection. ................... "Why?" was the only thing he said. Confused I asked "Why what?" "Why do you always do this to yourself?" the tone in which he spoke almost seemed like he was heartbroken about something. "Do what?" I dared to ask, although I knew already within me I wouldn't like his response. "Conceal your worth" ....................... If you like this small insight of the story then please read on. The only thing I can guarantee you in this story is that it will definitely have an happy ending although for the two characters Rica and Dili to achieve that, they would have too pass through many difficult obstacles on their way to happiness. And trust me this isn't your normal Teenage story that is filled with rainbows and sunshine, there are a lot of gloomy days. If you don't mind that then please by all means do read on. .................. NOTE: This is a pure work of fiction. An original story by me. Buy me coffee? https://ko-fi.com/missrina

I've always had the thought of writing a book that brings awareness to some of the bad things going on in our society today, practically to all teens out there in the world, and how we can change our society at large.
I honestly hope my book reaches out to people out there.
Some of the things this book is going to surround on would be,
1) The abusive use of drugs (this particular one is sadly really rampant)
2) Body shaming (people that do this really need to have a serious attitude adjustment)
3) Suicide attempt (this is quite rampant among Teens)
4) inferior complex (won't lie even I have this)
5) And of course Love I mean we all need love in our lives, whether Family love, friendship love or even the Romantic sort of love.
Soooo ladies and gent's please join me on this hopefully exciting journey of pain, overcoming that pain and finally finding the joy that very much well deserved.
PS: I'm going to be using a lot of Nigerian slangs, but I'm going to be interpreting don't worry. But if I forget to interpret a particular part, Please call my attention to it. Thanks.
"Dili wasn't always this optimistic in life" I listened attentively as Dili's mom continued talking."He was once in a very bad place" She narrated sadly."It was when his father passed away, that that's when it all started" eagerly I wanted to ask 'When what started' but I immediately stopped my hasty self."My baby went into drugs" She choked out a sob. My body automatically moved and I went to her to comfort her, though I didn't really exactly know how to comfort a person. Not a single clue.To say I was shocked by her words was an understatement. Sure I was surprised by what she said, but the first thing that came first was to comfort her.After gathering herself she gave me a small smile, indicating that she was alright now. I removed my hands from her and went back to sit down."Sorry about that" she tried to joke "As I was saying, Dili went into doing drugs. One time he overdosed and I had to rush him to the hospital. One of the worst days of my life if you ask me" A bitter smi
"Hey mom" Dili smiled brightly as soon as we entered his mother's hospital room.Mrs Uzora looked up from the book that she was reading and smiled."Ah, Dili you're here?""Yup" He responded popping the 'P'. Then he added "And I also brought Rica with me" I waved a little at her as Dili mentioned me."Good afternoon ma" I said."Nonsense, don't speak which so much formality. How many times will I tell you to call me mom. I am your future mother-in-law after all" She playfully winked.I didn't really know what to say, so I just awkwardly scratched my neck. True to what she said, she has told me a lot of times to just call her 'mom' on the different occasions I had visited her, but honestly speaking anyone else that was in my shoes will find it extremely awkward doing so.Her features saddened a little as my silence persisted "Or you don't want to? is it because you don't see yourself getting married to Dili?" My eyes widened a little alarmed. I didn't like the sad look on her face, it
"So what have you been up to these past few days?" I turned my gaze to Dili as he drove.Presently I and Dili were heading to the hospital. At first he was supposed to take me home but I asked him if we could go see his mom in the hospital. He was a little surprised at first when I told him I have been regularly visiting his mother."Are you sure that's the only thing you're curious to know?" Dili asked.I pondered over his question for a while before I replied "You're right, I do have other questions but I'm not sure if you'll answer them" I honestly spoke."Don't worry" He removed his eyes from the road and smiled at me briefly before he turned back "I will""Alright then" I heaved out."I'll start with my first question again. What have you been doing through out this week that you didn't once come to school""I was working" he grinned.Confused I asked "Working?""Yeah I was running my family business, that's why I couldn't come to school" Wow, I wasn't expecting that answer.I wa
When I released Dili from the hug, the next thing I did was to hit him."Ouche. What was that for? I thought you were thankful" He frowned rubbing his hand."Ehn I'm very thankful and grateful and all. But, you shouldn't have done that, why did you go and announce that we are engaged" I said."Uhm, because we are" he replied in a smartass tone, I also spotted a smile on his face.I gave him a look."Okay fine" He sighed "I just wanted to state a claim on you" He mumbled.I won't lie, I found what he said unbelievably funny yet charming. "A claim you say?" I asked in a teasing tone "You don't have to worry about that Dili, nobody wants me" I chuckled. Although it was sad, it was still the sad cruel truth. No one really did."You'd be surprised to know it's the complete opposite" His words were all muffled that I couldn't hear a single thing he said."Sorry I didn't quite catch that, what did you say?" I said."Nothing" he said."But just so you know" Once more he spoke. "It's not true
