This wasn't the fate that was meant for me, but I was made to believe it was. It wasn't the path I choose either. I guess luck wasn't on my side, it threw me away like that of an abandoned puppy who has nowhere to go.It wasn't my fault as I was left with no other choice, they took what I cherished and nurtured the most from me and made me this way. Some might say I'm stupid or I made myself this way, or rather call me a shameless woman left without a single pride. The day I had chosen this path, I never wanted to turn back because I couldn't understand why everything started at first. I never wanted to return and turn a new leaf and I knew I would end up becoming worse, but I didn't prepare for death. Maybe this was my fate and I chose to completely listen to the devil and request his advice on daily occurrences.My dear mother I lost to the cold hands of death, and later my dearest brother joined. I was left with only my father who believed that training a female child was something

The next morning was a Sunday. I only woke up to find myself on my bed covered properly and a tray of bread with fried eggs laid on the small table at the center of my room. You would say dad loves me so much and gave my room the best design. I never got to lack anything and I had a heap of toys in a store room still in my room. Everything I ever wanted even those I didn't need was provided and I didn't see any reason why I should feel sad or unsatisfied. I yawned stretching both my hands and God I had completely forgotten about mom for just a second when I woke up. I badly wanted to see dad again, but I was sure he would be out of the house by now and it pained me most that I didn't get to see his face last night. My door opened and Mrs. Roseline walked in carrying a small jug of water along with her. " Good morning Mrs. Roseline" I greeted and sat up straight to eat my meal. Even though I was born in a rich home, Morris and I were never spoilt. We had so much respect for elders

Alexa POV.I haven’t seen so many people at our house before, it felt so surreal. They were all dressed in black suits and came back home with us in their various cars. When we got home, Mrs. Roseline had already made some food and the aroma made my stomach growl. I went straight to the kitchen, Mrs. Roseline understood because she was already putting some snacks on a plate for me. “Thank you Mrs. Roseline,” I said as she handed it to me.I walked out of the kitchen and I put a big muffin in my mouth and it tasted so delicious. As I was about to take the last turn out of the hallway, I heard some ladies whispering, they were talking about how my mom abandoned her children at such a young age. But I didn’t want to believe their lies, mom would never abandon Morris and I.The plate on my hand fell because I lost my appetite. I immediately ran in search of my dad, to ask him about what those people were saying, but both my dad and Morris were nowhere to be found. I headed to my dad’s ho

Alexa POV.I remember the day I made my first friend. I was looking up the closest investigator nearby when I noticed someone walk up to my table in the library and take a seat opposite me.“Hi,” she said, looking me in the eyes. “Hello,” I replied dumbfounded. No one has ever spoken to me before except probably when they need me to excuse them or hand something over to them. I examine her. She has brown eyes, her nose is so perfect and her cheekbones, ohh they look so well curved. Her blonde hair is laying perfectly on her shoulder and she is putting on a black dress with a very bright shade of red lipstick.“I am Thelma.”“I a-am Alexa,” I responded breathlessly. My brain cells are screaming. I decided to calm down and not get ahead of myself.“Wanna hang out, there’s a frat party tonight?”“Hmmm, y-yess, n-noo, I have to get home today after school,” I reply painfully. The thought of my father finding out that I didn’t return home is scary. The new driver apparently has to report

Alexa POV.It has been some days since I was drugged and kidnapped by someone who I called a friend. I remember waking up on the first day, disoriented and scared. I was bound by a rope on both my hands and legs to a pole. I try to remember what’s happened, the water, the water was poisoned. “Help, someone please help me!” I screamed.“Ohh would you shut up,” a voice said walking towards me.I tried adjusting my eyes in the dark so I could see clearly. It was Thelma, she looked different, more fierce.“Thelma, what’s wrong, where are we and why am I tied, what happened,”“Ohh Alexa, Alexa, you poor girl, I never thought you would be so stupid.”“I don’t understand what's going on, please Thelma, untie me so I can go home.”“My little princess, there is no going back,” she says with a smirk.“But you are my friend, why are you doing this?” I ask, beginning to realise I am in danger and the Thelma I know is gone.“Friend, friends?” she screams and throws her head back laughing.“My lov
