On the way back I couldn't stop thinking about Marry and about what Anzania said. They were in a relationship. I didn't know what Cecelia Was capable of.I looked at her as she scrolled through her phone. What was she capable of? What was she planning behind my back. I mean she told me the plan but it benefitted me. Sophie, her dad and her brother were going to die and she was going to inherit everything. Why did Anzania say the things she said...?I hated how much these questions were pilling up instead of reducing. The more I met up with Anzania the more questions I got without any I had getting answers."Hey..." she whispered taking my hand and I slowly pulled away from her.She swallowed, "look. I know Marry can.."I shook my head cutting her, I didn't want her to lie to me."You don't have to explain anything to me Cecelia.""But you're mad..."Our stop got announced and I got up getting ready to get off when the train stops. I went out and she followed me."You're mad at me." S
I felt a little bit empty and out of place. I went straight back to sleep when I got home. I was going to face everything tomorrow. And to be honest tomorrow couldn't come fast enough. I was dreading it, but the fact that I spent two to three hours in the mountain talking to my ex who was supposed to be dead kinda lead to my night being short and the morning arriving sooner than I anticipated. I felt like screaming when I woke up. I felt like running away and also funny enough, I felt like I didn't even know Cecelia. She laid there looking so beautiful and so innocent. I couldn't believe everything that Anzania said but then again what did she have to lose? 'You Allison, she stands losing you.' a little voice said inside me. Anzania stood a chance of losing me if she didn't say all these things to me. I'd marry someone else who wasn't her. So she was driven by jealous and didn't want to see me happy. But why would it take her so long to come? Why would it take her me accepting th
My hand was shaking. My head began to heat and my heart was beating so fast on my chest.Sound started to be louder. I could hear the dor that was walking outside. I could hear kids laughing from the distance. I could hear the train moving. Everything that was far from me seemed to be so close. Yet everything that was so close to me seemed to slowly parish. I could see people's lips moving but heard no sound.That was until I felt my body hit the wall.I looked around me and quickly pulled away when I saw Cecelia standing in front of me. She was touching me and trying to say something.I pushed her off me and started to walk but quickly felt something push me against the wall again. It was her.She moved her lips but I couldn't hear her.I heard someone cry and looked around. I couldn't see who it was. I heard someone sing and looked but couldn't see.Who were they? Where were they?"Allison... Allison. Oh God." I finally heard call sounding like she was so far from me. I slowly turne
I went to take a shower and I cried in there. I let my tears out and allowed myself to feel the pain. Last time I felt like this was over two years ago when I thought Anzania was dead. But then I didn't have a chance to cry like this. So now I cried. I turned on the water and put it on cold then cried silently.All the little memories I shared with my sister these past 21 months were running through my head and the more I thought about that the more I got sad. I knew I'd never have that again. I'd never see her again. The more I thought about it the more it broke me.I was startled when the water stopped. I was so tired to even lift my head up to see what was going on.I felt a towel on my body, and someone lifting me up. I didn't fight, I just let her.She laid me in bed and then started drying my whole body, she put lotion on it and put me in shorts and a shirt."We are still waiting. Please don't lose hope." she said and I shook my head, "she sent me this text while boarding. She i
I looked at them both wanting to scream. What the hell was going on? Another part of me wanted to leave but another one was so happy to see Brandy alive. I couldn't bare the thought of her being dead, and not that she was here in front of me I was so happy, but then again I was so conflicted because of what Anzania said.Should I leave? Should I not? My heart was inconclusive."Hey..." Brandy said again and I slowly walked towards her and pulled her into a hug trying by all means not to cry.I thought she was gone. I saw the plane and it wasn't good. How was she here?"You have no idea how happy I am yo see you right now. I never thought I would." she said and I nodded my head, "I never thought I would see you too. I'm so glad you're okay.""Yeah, thanks to Kaycee. I honestly didn't believe it when I first got her text." My sister said and I looked at the Kaycee she was talking about. She slowly lifted her hands up, "I'll give you guys sometime, but please Allison don't leave before I
It had been a month since I moved here, one would think I'd have settled in a bit, but I still wasn't used to this place.After getting a call back from the school I knew I had to loosen up a little bit though, because that meant this was going to be my home for a while... At least until I felt some threat and had to be on the move again.I sighed and looked at the window as the curtains shifted a bit due to the wind outside. At least here I had some peace and quietness...no sharing roommates and all that. I got up and closed it then turned around with another sigh. This was for now my new home now, this cosy little flat that was in the middle of the small town. I took my new phone and my keys then headed out, maybe taking a walk would refresh my mind a little bit.Havana was a small town, everyone here seem to know everyone one another and they were so kind. Since it was a bit far from the city I decided to stop a little and see what it could bring for me. I mean, they wouldn't loo
The buildings felt very unfamiliar as if I have never set foot here before. Or maybe it was because today things were different, instead of quiet classrooms there were children today running down the corridors while others were crying outside.This was going to be fun. I haven't taught for over 9 months, I really hope I still had my mojo.I walked in the reception and the principal smiled at me, "Miss Bush... How are you this morning?"I shifted my bag to my left hand and took my hand to shake his, "Principal.. I am great thanks and how are you?""great.. Let's go in so I can do the introductions. They honestly can't wait to meet you."We walked in the staff room and all eyes were on us... Or should I say me...?I scanned them all within seconds and then my eyes were back at the principal who was talking."... As we all know that we were in need of a 3rd grade teacher, we found her. Allison Bush is new in town and also here at school obviously.. So please make her feel at home.. And a
The week went by petty fast and I was loving it at work. Before I knew it it was Saturday and I was at the pub again. Right at this point I had a plan on how to get ahold of her if she didn't come again. The bartender knew her, so I'd communicate with her and find out her name and all that. I knew that was a bit stalker(ish) but a girl has to do what she has to do. The door made noise and I looked at it. Two guys walked in laughing, my eyes darted behind them and that's when I saw her outside. She was standing there looking at me. She then turned around and I realized she was not going to come in.Fuck! I took out my wallet and left a R50 note then quickly walked out. Really? So she has been seeing me and not getting in because I was here?I looked to my left and she wasn't there, then to my right and saw her walk up to a car. Today she wasn't wearing uniform, dissapoited me a bit because I loved her in a uniform.. She looked really good. But this was great for me. She can't use an
