"Hey Amanda, what's up?" A voice said.Amanda knew who that voice belonged to. She didn't need to turn around in order to know who that wa.. She had already sensed him from a mile away. Ian Gregory, the school's resident fine boy was hurrying towards her even as Amanda tried all she could to move away from him. She didn't want to talk to him for fear of what her heart might do.Ian was the only boy in the whole school that Amanda seemed to have the slightest affection for and that was before Parker came along but not anymore because he had bullied her to no end. He was funny, down to eart but was as spoilt as anything. Even though their school could only be attended by the rich, Ian seemed to have this proudness within him that she hadn't seen in no one else.She knew he loved her, she had seen the look on his face the first time they kissed a year ago. Straight away, he had asked her to be his girlfriend but Amanda declined to the surprise of everyone around. They didn't know the bas

IanI was damn tired of chasing her. it was getting difficult but i knew i couldn't stop now even when i knew i was getting close to her. Amanda would be mine soon and it was only a matter of time before she's officially mine. I checked my phone for the umpteenth time that morning in hopes that she had sent a message but there was still nothing.I was tempted to send her another message but i didn't want to pass as being too desperate even though i was. I wanted to give her enough time to get used to all of these before i begin properly. Amanda was going to be fine, that was all I was bothered about and it was something that would come to pass.I shrugged on my coat as I stepped out of my house. Today was the last day of work for me till the following week when we would be resuming school again and i wanted to make the best out of it. I had the whole of the weekend to lure Amanda towards me and I knew I wouldn't fail especially when i set my mind towards meeting something.''Hi." a sen

ParkerSchool had already resumed and to say I was happy to be seeing Amanda would be an understatement, I was ecstatic. Ever since I asked her out, there was this noticeable glow around me that my mother even saw. She had asked me times without number what was responsible for it but I just didn't want to tell her quite yet.Our relationship was still very young and I didn't want to announce quite yet until it was strong enough. I knew no one in school knew about it and I loved it that way. Amanda was one girl I didn't want to joke with. She meant so much to me and I knew I'd be the greatest fool if I hurt the love she had for me."Mom, I'm off." I called.As usual, dad had gone out already. He was working really hard to get our family back on track and for that, I would continually be grateful to him. We were better off than how we came at the very beginning and i owed it all to my parents."Hey love. You're off?" Mom asked, walking out of the kitchen.The sweet smell of freshly made

"Hey darling." Charlotte smiled.Eric had just walked into his apartment to see his wife taking care of things that really didn't need taking care of. She was always so hard working and he vowed within himself to repay her whenever he got the chance That was the only way he could reply her for all the love and devotion she had for him."Hi love, how are you?" He smiled.He drew her closer to him, kissing her lightly. He was addicted to her and it was the best addiction he could ever dream of. She was like a drug he constantly needed to survive, a shield to protect him from all his insecurities."How was work today?" Charlotte asked.She took his Jacket, placing it by the edge of the chair. Charlotte knew something was wrong especially with the way his face seemed to scrunch in concentration and fear. Eric hardly ever let his emotions out in the open but this time, he couldn't hide what was burning him in his heart."Fine... Just stressful." he said vaguely.Eric knew that she saw som

'’Lord knows i’m stuffed.’’ Amanda sighed.She had eaten enough food to feed three people. Parker on the other hand had eaten like a lion, devouring everything on his plate. The quiche they had for dinner was very tasty, one of the best Amanda had ever had. Whoever had cooked it, cooked it to perfection and she couldn’t wait to have another taste the moment she got the chance.‘’I’ll like to show you somewhere.’’ Parker said.‘’Hmm where?’’ Amanda asked.She didn’t know where this mysterious place was but whatever it was, she was prepared to go with him. ‘’We’ll be taking a drive to the canyon, on the outskirts of the city.’’ he said.Amanda was excited to hear this. She had heard so much about the canyon and she couldn’t wait to see what it looked like. Parker was happy over her excitement. He was always happy to see her excited and he secretly plotted ways by which he could make her more happy.‘’Thank you Parker. You really don’t know how i’ve been longing to go out.’’ Amanda sai
