Rosario's POV“Ain’t you done yet?” Manny asked. I eventually convinced him to let me eat at the restaurant first.I’ve eaten a lot today and tried so hard to force myself.It felt as if, any moment I’d puke everything I’d eaten through out today!Oh Dash, where are you?Manny was so clingy. He kept playing with my hair and staring at me without a word.Who knows if he noticed that I’m not hungry.“Okay enough.” He finally got up.“You’re not even eating. Come on, let’s go.” He said.I nodded having a plan. I got up shifting my chair backward.He placed his hand round my shoulder and wanted to start leaving.“Oh wait!” I snapped.“What?” he asked tiredly. He still looked tipsy.“I think something I ate didn’t go well with me… I’ll just use the toilet.” I rushed my words.“Eh…”But I walked away hurriedly.I entered the other hallway and saw a toilet, I got in and shut the door behind me.I immediately vomited straight in the toilet.I remember Kelvin did this for years to avoid gettin
Rosario's POVI walked into Kelvin's room. He finally returned from where ever he went tonight.“Can’t you knock?” He asked. He was unbuttoning his shirt.Probably about sleeping the next min. Lazy thing.“Well it’s not like you’re na…” I paused and just stopped talking. Fine! I was wrong!!! What if he was naked!But he still does this to me sometimes… and he even saw me naked once….But that’s been so long! And I don’t wish to talk about it.I walked to his bed and sat comfortably. He has the most comfortable bed in the whole house. There I watched him walked to his wardrobe and took out another fancy shirt.“huuh? Where are you going again? I thought you just arrived.”He walked to the mirror side and put on the shirt.“I’m having dinner with an investor. Quick, go out!” he said making me almost choke. I wanted to laugh.Whaat? Investor??“Go out! Hurry.” He said. Huuh.Who does he think he is talking to? Olivia?“Hmmn.” I shrugged. “I must ask you what I came here for before i le
Rosario's POV cont…I sat up my bed suddenly having an idea of how to see Dash… tonight.Just a peep… a glance! Whatever.But at least my heart would be at rest.I wonder if he goes to that hotel frequently?*“Why do you want to suddenly go on a date with Mark?Its 9pm.” Kelvin said with a look.“What?I remember you said while convincing me to first go on a date with Mark, you asked me if I wanted to have a relationship like other ‘normal’ girls?Other normal girls don’t go on second dates?Or was it all a means to get me to go out with Mark?Is it because he had something on you?”Kelvin rolled his eyes at me.“We'll share whatever you get 70, 30. Me being 70.” He said. I scoffed. God! Kelvin!“After all I wasn’t the one who asked you not to take his number when you first met.” He grumbled to himself.I nodded negatively.“yes. Okay 70, 30 Kelvin call him.”“What? You are still gonna go?”“Wait? Is that attitude meant to make me to stay?Its not working.” I said. He opened his mou
Rosario's POVI took my bag from Laura and took my phone from her locker.“You Kleptomaniac. Stay away from me.” I eyed her and walked out of the class.So Laura is thief now? I mean, Why was she getting all down on my bag so comfortably.I still wonder what her relationship with Dash is.*I sat at the 11th grader's side of the assembly hall which is in the middle of the hall… along the rest 11th graders from different rooms.I saw Kelvin at the other end of the hall with his crew. He was staring at me.I rolled my eyes at him and looked away wishing the principal can come and get things over with.My gaze suddenly landed on Dash entering the hall. I half gasped.Oh shit! He came!I looked away pretending not to see him.He walked to the 11th grader's side in the middle of the hall and sat some 2 seats in front.Every Monday and Fridays our assembling is always getting taught general Biology by the principal for an hour.And then the announcements and then we leave.We still had a lo
Rosario's POVI finally got home, it was pretty late. All thanks to Dash.I can’t believe he left me in school after I’ve waited 2 hours for him. But he didn’t know that.Of course he didn’t know that!I hope they beat him to a pulp and ruin his face..I noticed a new car at the garage. Hmmmn… could it be dad?Hell No. There is no way we are expecting dad till three months time. Christmas.… maybe it’s a guest.I got in our house to see Olivia in the sitting room alone.No guest? Hmmn. Maybe it’s one of Kelvins bae.He only take girls to his room.“You’re back?” She said with a look. I scowled at her looking around the messy place and walked to the kitchen.“Mum is back.” I heard her say and immediately I saw mum coming out from the kitchen.Okay, why the fuck did Olivia have to announce it! Why! Why!Why do I have to hear it from her of all people! Now I’m… I’m probably not excited.“Rosa, baby you’re finally back.” mum said smiling at me. I sighed tiredly. Okay, I wasn’t excited to
Kelvin’s POVWe were all sitting at the dining.Mum, me. Olivia. Rosa.Rosa's face was just buried in her palm and… and I felt I don’t know, bad? for her.“So…” she dropped down her hand. “ So I’m like, adopted?” She asked still all teary. I rolled my eyes.How many explanation does she still need to understand? Why does she keep asking this again?“Oh No baby. Didn’t you hear what I said.You’re not adopted. Yeah maybe your dad is not Kevin’s dad.I’m Kevin’s mum but not your mum, but you’re not....”“It’s the same thing! I can’t believe I’m adopted!” she slammed her palm on the table on every word she said.Hmmn.“Look baby, it doesn’t change anything.” Mum placed her hand on Rosa's staring at her deeply.“You are my daughter. Okay!” she said. But Rosa took her hand off.“Oh God, I’m adopted… and no one told me.Kelvin knew! I’m sure you people were laughing at me behind my back.” She whimpered. I rolled my eyes and sighed deeply causing mum to stare at me briefly with anger in her
Rosario's POVI dressed up hurriedly after bathing for the first time since I came back from school.I took my small waist bag and put my phone in it and soundlessly opened the door of my room.I walked to the kitchen silently. Okay I wasn’t snaking out though but…I walked to the kitchen and turned on the light and made to walk out only to see mum by the other entrance.I froze in a spot.“Rosa where are you going this late?” She asked. I gulped nothing down.No matter what, even if she says she isn’t my real mum, I don’t know.I don’t even know how to feel.I just feel worried to think that she never really loved me.Did she?“Why are you asking me.Didn’t you just allow Kelvin go out? You didn’t ask him.” I scoffed.“Kelvin is a man.” She said. I scowled.Okay, why is everyone saying that!!“In my defense, I’m not your daughter.Why do you care… to think that you told me that I’m not your daughter.You never really Loved me?” I pouted.“Oh Rosa don’t be like that.”“no wonder you n
Third Person Narrative.Victor Lee walked into his house.His dad, the principal and owner of Iridium High was in the sitting room.He walked towards his dad and stood before him.“Dad, good evening.”“Hmmn, how did it go?”“Well, we didn’t find his body.Some wild animals must have taken it.Or maybe he managed to crawl somewhere. But I’m sure he died.People hardly go into that woods, he'd decay there.” Victor replied.“His car?”“sold.”There was a long while of silence.“Why did you do it?” His father asked. He was silent.“I said why did you do it? When I’m talking to you, you answer me!”“I did it for you.Dash has something on you doesn’t he. I overheard your conversation in your office the first day he came to our school.He knows about our past life… does he?And there is something else, something huge.I know Dad.Though I never had any intentions of killing him, but he was standing right in front of me in the woods, and it crossed my mind.All I could think of was you dad.
