MasukWalker is not the type to commit,and he told Steyn, at the start of their blooming romance. As the fifth Grace of Gryffindor, he knew the wealth and power he commanded, hence his fear to actually commit. But as is the manner with women, Steyn wants a commitment, that Walker is not ready to give
Lihat lebih banyakAs I walked away, my heart pounded with a mix of anger and confusion. The weight of my confrontation with Skye settled heavy in my chest. I didn’t look back; I couldn’t afford to. The memory of his eyes, cold and piercing, lingered in my mind. How had we ended up here, tangled in this bizarre dance of denial and frustration?The fluorescent lights of the hallway blurred past me as I hurried toward the exit. I needed air, to breathe outside the suffocating atmosphere that felt like it was closing in. Ruby’s situation echoed in my mind, a reminder of the fragility of life and how I was wasting my energy on a boy who thrived on chaos.Outside, the night was cool, the stars barely visible through the urban haze. I found a bench and sat down, letting my thoughts spiral. How could Skye have the audacity to flirt with me while his girlfriend was presumably waiting for him? It was infuriating, and yet... there was something intoxicating about the way he challenged me.“Steyn?” A voice broke t
It wasn't a bad thing to cry, but I didn't want to do it in front of her. She could break down or think that I was pitying her. I would think the same thing if I were her. Ruby was a nice girl that it hurt me so much to even bring myself to ask the type of cancer she had.I was so lost in thought that I didn't notice until I had bumped into Skye who was standing hands akimbo directly in front of me."What the f…..!" I yelled, "Do you just purposely stand in front of someone and hope they bump into you?" I sneered and continued on my way when he flashed a smile at me."No. Just in front of you." He retorted.At his statement, the sadness I felt from earlier dissipated into something intense. Something that made my heart beat faster than normal and caused it to constrict. I was angry. And it was a good thing."What did you say?" I halted. "Correct me if I'm wrong but is that flirting I sense in your tone?"He grinned but it only fueled my anger. He must really think I'm stupid. Of C
"That's my ma." I said, adjusting my skirts and finding a place to sit beside Ruby on the bed. "I know. She told me." Ruby replied. I nodded and swallowed, sensing her discomfort. "Or you're worried she told me something,"I said, "She didn't." She nodded and then asked, "Why did you come?" Without looking me in the eyes. "Errrm, I couldn't reach you?" I said, sounding like I wasn't sure it was enough reason and shrugged, "I wanted to check that you're okay. Nobody was telling me anything when I asked after you." She gulped and said, "thank you." I squeezed her palms to let her know that it was fine like I'd seen in movie scenes, "Why did you shave your hair?" I asked the most pressing question on my mind. She smiled and answered, "I've always been like this." And after a while added, "Can you help me open the last closet on your left?" I got up and strolled over to her closet, opening it as she asked; an auburn wig fell out. Not thinking much about it, I picked it up and was ab
It was exhilarating to think of how he switched from being this cool and sensible guy to the total opposite in minutes, I thought, barging into my house.I dumped my bag on the cushion and scurried into the kitchen to look for something to drink."Whoosh!" I yelled, thumping loudly on the table. It was difficult thinking straight when you had other things on your mind.Dumping the cup In the sink, I made a u-turn and headed straight to my room. There was no school for me today and I intended to spend the day sleeping.Seeing Kylie again gave me some sort of happiness I thought as I lay wide awake in bed, thinking of the list of things I had to do.The most pressing one, being how I intended to tell my mom about it. Just thinking about it gave me shivers. My imagination ran wild, thinking about the way she would react. Good thing was I didn't plan on telling her about it anytime soon, so I pushed the thought aside.Also, introducing Ruby to her was on that list but for the past few wee
