Kelly called me the next day on phone, I was still a bit sleepy when I asked the call, but she was bubbling with joy on the other side of the phone and there was also music playing in the background.I looked at my clock that was on my bedroom desk, it was only 5:00 in the morning, after a long trip yesterday, I wonder how she doesn’t feel tired.“Aren’t you coming yet?” Kelly asked me. Perhaps, noticing that I was still in bed.I rub my eyes to keep myself away as I replied to her question. “Is there an occasion today?” I asked her since I was sure we didn’t make an appointment today.“How can you forget so soon?” Kelly asked in a loud voice that I had to move the phone from my ear before putting it back.“What is it?” My voice was lazy and dragged as I sat up, I was no longer feeling sleepy anymore, once I am awakened, the sleep always seems to disappear.“That means you don&rsquo

"Cindy." She said softly as I walked closer to her after my father gave me an assuring smile. "Good evening ma'am, nice to meet you." I handed her the flower I got for her and she glances at it for a brief moment, then she looks up at my face again, still with that looks."Cindy, thank you." Her eyes couldn't leave my face and I had to smile awkwardly, I wonder if I didn't do my makeup well, or if I had something on my face, but there she was, staring at me with her clear blue eyes. "I am Louisa." She introduced herself."I am happy to see you Louisa and you look very beautiful." She was extremely gorgeous and I couldn't keep my mouth shut about it."Thanks for the compliment, you look beautiful." She looked at my father and he has a handsome smile on his face.I don't know why I felt a bit strange while looking at the face of this lady, she looks so familiar to someone I know, but I can't just picture it.We sat down and ordered something to eat, while eati

I went in search of Jeffrey's friends, no matter what they were the ones that will tell me what Jeffery loves most and I could get few ideas from them on what to get for him.I met D’mally first by the lobby and I blocked his path. “D’mally, I need your help,” I remember in the past, D’mally was one of the people I play with and he was more close to Jeffery after me, he must know what Jeffery will need.“in what?” He must be surprised by the way I came up to him.“Can you tell me what Jeffery loves the most in this world?” I looked at him expectantly as I waited for his reply.“It is you.” He finally said after contemplating for a long time and I look at him like he was crazy, but remembered I didn’t put the question right.“I mean material things. It is his birthday today and I am struggling with what to get for him.” I explained it much better and he seems to now have a clu

An idea came into my head and I smile, all I had to do was make him forget about all this so I open my lips to speak. “You must still be wondering about my two dates, Monday and Tuesday.”He stopped chewing his meal for a moment and glance at me, then he swallowed, sipping his wine and wiping off his lips with his napkin. “Yes, I am curious.”Now I got his attention and was sure that this would distract him from any punishment he must be thinking, even if he won’t hit me, as long as the word punishment was in it, I knew it would hurt.“On Monday was my friendship anniversary with Salsa and Daisy so we hanged out together, and the second was a date with my father …. He wants to remarry.” The thought of that excites me as I beam. “I’ll have a stepmother soon and a stepbrother.”Jeffery blinks and leans back to his chair folding his hands across his chest. “Why do we have so much in common?&rdq

I arrived at the address Janet had told me about, when I got there I saw her pacing around and rubbing her hands together. “Janet,” I called out and she turned sharply and on her face was fear and worry. “What happened?”“I couldn’t find her anywhere, I have called her line and she isn’t picking up,” Janet told me as I held her hands. I wonder what was going on, but for something to make Janet this worried then it wasn’t good.“Have you checked at school?” it was late to be at school at this time, but I still need to ask.“She is not there, I have also checked her favourite restaurant and café.” She went on explaining. “I heard from two students that she failed her audition, I tried reaching her but she is not responding to her text and calls.”“We have to find her,” I said in a haste, the audition meant a lot to Kelly and I was scared that she might be cr
