Can you keep a secret のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 1 - チャプター 10

Chapter 2The rumor of the game is now spreading more than ever before. Like everywhere I go to, the grocery mall and even in the school, I rarely talk without hinting on the dumbass game. I wonder how people could be this clueless, primitive and naive. I mean there are lot of signs there to prove the game false still they decide to neglect their own life to be slaves to rumors. Right now I'm at the school cafe with my best friend bethel. I’ve been rambling about a classic I just read, telling her what I love about the book ‘fences’, an American themed book. I told her what I hate and how I felt about Troll's death, which in my opinion wasn’t supposed to die. While I was busy talking, she kept nodding and mouthing an 'Uh yeah’ oh’ absently mindedly and I almost narrated the entire book before I realized she wasn’t even paying attention instead she was busy operating her phone, deeply engrossed in whatever she was doing. “Bethel...” I snapped at her, making her flinch and her phone

Chapter 4 Laying lazily on my bed, the pigeon on my window made a lovely sound and the birds on the Cheryl tree close to my window sang melodiously to the movement of the wind and the falling leaves.Today is mother's day and I'm supposed to go out with my mom by 1pm but the time is 12pm there's no sign of my mom around and she hasn't called me. I sighed and went to the kitchen to grab a plate of chips and a chilled bottle of water to pass out time. Getting to our sitting room, dad and Zayn are sitting on the sofa watching a program. I just ignored them and went straight to the kitchen.Zayn doesn't even bother about the mothers day outing stuff he prefers to stay at home with dad and spend the whole day watching movies or doing some crazy stuff. After getting everything I needed, I went upstairs to my room. I found my phone ringing hoping to see my mom's face on the screen. I rushed to my bedside to check the caller but to my disappointment it's my female bestie that's calling. I

Standing before the mirror, I slipped my hair into a ponytail and then started checking out my uniform to be sure nothing was left out. With my gaze still on the mirror, I saw my door creaked open and mum walked in. She was in a gray colored suit, the same dress she had worn yesterday morning. “Clarisa dear?" Her smile reflected in the mirror."So you finally remembered you have a home” I just rolled my eyes, staring at her through the mirror. “Clarissa I understand that you must be very upset about yesterday." She said quietly as she placed her palm on my shoulder. “I am so sorry for not showing up again as promised. The thing is I got really busy at work." "You always say that.” I turned around so I could face her. “It's always work work. You can't even squeeze a minute of your time and share it with your family. All you think and care about is your work." "What? You know that's not true right? I love you so much and whatever I'm doing right now is because I want to make you h

Chapter 8 My mom rushed in, I couldn't even make a move or sound, I just laid there like a heap of sand staring at my brother's corpse. Hell! I couldn't still believe that had happened, he can't really be dead right?It was just a graze from a pillow not that it had actually hit him, how is it that he is dead, it's not possible, it's not.. I scrutinized his face waiting for him to say 'got you!' and then I would spank his ass or tweak his ears but the longer I waited for this to happen the longer it took.Tears built up in my eyes threatening to fall, I felt a hand snuck through my back. I strained my neck backwards and met my mum. She had tears streaming down her cheeks, her hands trembling as she bent down to hold me. "Mum." I sniveled and she cupped my cheeks into her palm saying soothing words to me."I didn't do it, I didn't.. do it." My eyes pleaded, she nodded with a quiver and hugged me to her chest. My hands wrapped around her as I watched my dad and the emergency nurses pul

After the incident at the hospital Annabel wake was conducted the following morning but I didn’t bother to attend. Don’t judge me, I really didn’t have the courage to. I mean everyone probably thinks I caused Annabel's death and certainly if the information got to Annabel's parents. I just wouldn’t know how to face them. Annabel's sudden death was so traumatic for me. Even though I’m partly to blame, the death seems so mysterious if you ask me. I mean talking about swimming Annabel is an expert and even though experts at times make mistakes, she could have been able to save herself. Something just doesn’t seem right. “Till when are you going to stop thinking about Zayn?” A voice snaps me out of my thoughts and I realize I was sitting at the dining table eating with dad. Mum had already gone to work and she’s been really active at work these days because she’s filling in for those days she hasn’t been active. And to be honest I really don’t seem to care anymore cause I’ve been muc
