MasukKehlani I got back home. I didn't want to leave but I did anyway, because I couldn't force things. Definitely, Elliot must have tried to call me. But I blocked him. I got home and sat on the chair by the porch. I tried the breathing technique to calm myself down but it was working, the door opened as tears started coming out but I wiped it immediately, hiding my face with my palm. “Hey, kiddo.” Dad was resting by the door. “That idiot came today.”I wiped my tears with my thumb stylishly so he didn't notice it. “What, which idiot?”“Elliot. The one who stabbed you.”I stood up abruptly. “No.”“Trust me, I had this same expression as you. I pursued him with a shovel till he stopped talking and ran away.” Dad said, lips pursed. “Elliot was here? Why?”He turned to me. “Exactly, I don't understand. He kept on saying you claimed that he's the one you love. How?”“That psychopath. Ahhh!” I kicked the flower pot close to me and it fell. I sniffed, covering my mouth. “I'm sorry Dad.”“It'
Kehlani “Please, let me just explain things.” He narrowed his eyes. “I told you I don't want to see you again.” “I know but can't you just give me a chance or something. Please. Just hear me out.”He nods while looking at me. “You wanna talk, fine. Let's talk.” He turned and I followed him, walking behind him, nervous and biting my fingernail. But Trevor didn't pass through the foyers, instead he was going towards the direction of the outdoor sector, by the manicured garden. There are chairs and tables in the arena so he sat drumming his fingers on the surface. “So, talk. Don't waste my time. I have a date.” I paused for a month before pulling my chair out. “No.” It escaped my mouth. “No, what?”I managed to take a seat. “You have a date? Trevor, you can't just break up with me and go out on a date. What is that supposed to mean? That there's no chance between us anymore?”“Kehlani, I'm waiting. Come on. What are you saying?” Trevor responds, uninterested. He seemed to be ready

Kehlani For a while, everything paused. I just stared at the message that popped up.(Congratulations, Kehlani Cole. You won the Golden lensArt scholarship program…..)The words blurred and I opened it with shaking hands.(We are pleased to inform you, full tuition coverage, mentorship with top industry photographers. Program starting next year.)I won. I came first. With Trevor's help. He fulfilled his own side of the deal, helping me all through each stage. But happiness didn't come. I swiped the message away. Still in shock. I should have been joyful, screaming, crying happy tears and announcing to everyone but instead I just sat at the edge of the bed, depressed and hollow. What's the purpose of being happy if I lost him?The deal was supposed to be on both sides. He did help me win my scholarship and changed my future forever and I was supposed to help me fix himself. Change how people saw him in school but I didn't, although I tried, I stood by him. I should have done more but
Kehlani I didn't know what to do anymore. Which turn to take or how to react. I only stood and cried. Wailing at that spot. Look what I caused for myself. I just lost the person I love on my birthday. This was too much for me. And now, the entire class knew I cheated. I cried bitterly, watching Trevor scatter and destroy the cake. I didn't step inside. I was too embarrassed. Ashamed of myself. Some guys had gone to hold Trevor away, stopping him. His fists, smeared with icing all over it. The hall was chaotic now as everyone started talking about me. My eyes dart towards Elliot who's smiling hard. My eyes burned with rage. How dare he? I wished I was careful enough. In fact, I wished I never did such. I cried till I could no more. This was it, the part where I ran away. But before I did, I felt hands wrapping around mine in full grasp. When I turned, it's Elliot, again. I slapped him without even wasting time but he didn't let go. “You thought I was joking when I said I'll tell t
KehlaniI just held my dress, my fingers trembling. Trevor cupped my face so I could look into his eyes. But I couldn't help it. I turned away, giving him that look of defeat. Guilty. I don't know how to start denying it. This is the second time I'd get humiliated in front of students again. “Babe. Say something.” Trevor says softly. “Don't let him manipulate you again. I know he could be lying. I know, okay?”Trevor still trusted me even with what Elliot had said. He still had faith in me. I don't deserve him. Elliot was right. Elliot's voice on the mic jerked me out of my thoughts. “If you think all this is a lie, Trevor, I have evidence to show you. To prove to you that you're dating someone who doesn't love you. She cheated on you with me.”“What evidence, you moron?” Trevor's red flashed with anger. Like he was ready to punch him already. “DJ, please connect.” He nods his head, pulling out his phone from his pocket. I was now confused. I don't know what he was trying to do but
Kehlani I lunged at Maddie. Tackling her to the floor. We rolled to the floor, hitting, slapping and swinging. It had turned into a mind blowing heated fight between us in the midst of the whole girls. Girls were screaming, shouting, pretty sure recording, as well. Her fingers dug painfully into m
KehlaniI arranged every piece of clothes in my wardrobe. In fact some couldn't contain so I got rid of the old ones which were worn off. I smiled, admiring the change. Olive would be surprised. Olive…fuck. No. That's when the threat rang in my ear. To stay away from her. I don't know what to do
Kehlani Trevor had parked at his mansion. The huge black gates fled open and he glided in. I try not to act surprised but goddamn, his home was a masterpiece out of a movie. The first thing that caught my attention was the water fountain before the pretty surroundings. No wonder he didn't mind pay
Kehlani.The moment everyone had left school, I was still waiting for Trevor outside his coach's office. I'm still reeling from shock while he fought with Elliot on the ice. I saw it all. How Elliot had started the fight before Trevor threw a punch. The moment the door opened and he came out, I ran
