Brenda G_____Ever felt like you're the worst person on the planet? Well, that's me.I had a list of reasons to prove that I was indeed the worst person in the universe. The first reason being, I lied to my best friends Sam and Dulcie. The other day, during the whole Jake and me incident, I managed to cook up a convincing lie in order to explain why Jake and I were both naked in the water. Of course, I used the skinny diving story as an explanation. I could sense by the suspicious looks from Dulcie and Sam, that they weren't fully convinced but they chose to let it slide. Or didn't they?The second reason as to why I was the worst mundane is, I nearly had sex with my best friend's crush. I clearly knew that Cara had feelings for Jake but despite that, I shamelessly fell for him. What's worse is that I nearly had sex with him. What was I thinking? Just how horny was I? Wait, did Jake lace the slices of bacon with horny pills? Was that why I wanted to have sex with him?The memory of t

Jake William____"I want you to find him and arrest him immediately inspector!" I thundered over the phone then hung up.Fury was surging through every nerve of my body. The sight of the man, Lance, hovering over Brenda, made blood boil in my veins. The lustful look in his eyes as he touched her inappropriately drove me mad with anger. What broke me more was the fact that Brenda was hurting.He will pay for hurting her.I declared while sitting on Brenda's bed where she was sleeping. I switched off the bedside lamp and slid under the warm bed covers. I drew her body to mine and gently caressed her back as I showered pecks on her forehead.The broken look in her eyes ate me up from the inside. I had never seen her so traumatized and scared. I have always known her as a fighter, a girl who doesn't shy from speaking her mind, and most of all, a kind soul. But Lance took that away from her. He broke her spirit. He hurt her."No, p-lease don't " Words shot out of her mouth and almost imme

Brenda G____Jake, please don't kiss her. Please.I inwardly prayed with my eyes closed. Then all of a sudden, I felt my body being hoisted off the ground. My eyes bulged upon noticing that I was cradled in his arms. Everyone's attention was on us. "J-jake-what-" I couldn't form a proper phrase."Jake, what's going on?" Cara inquired. "What are you doing?""I am doing what I have been yearning to do in front of everyone." He smashed his lips on mine and gently kissed my lips. It was a brief, sweet kiss. I was too shocked and embarrassed to speak."What The Fuck!" Cara yelled."Are you guys in a relationship?" Syd inquired."Yes." Jake simply replied."I knew it! I knew it!" Sam gritted.Jake let me on my feet then encircled his arm on my waist."Since when?" Cara seethed. Her face was red with anger. "You knew too well that I have feelings for Jake and yet you went ahead and wooed him! How could you Brenda?""Cara, I am sorry -I." I tried to explain."You know what, you are a shamele

Brenda G____“Who is the visitor?”“Your mother.” She replied.“Rose, thank you for informing me.” I got up from my chair and walked towards her.“It’s—my job. You don’t have to thank me. “ Her gaze was glued to the tiled floor.“Rose, what have I told you about gazing at the floor when someone is addressing you?”“You—you said that I should stop doing it.” She timidly replied.“Then why haven’t you?”She chuckled nervously, “I can’t do it. For as long as I recall, I have always had low self-esteem. I guess it’s because of what everyone thinks of me.”“And what is it that?”“They think that I am a fat loser. I mean, no one wants to hang out with me because of my body.” She sighed.“Rose, look...” I called. She shyly gazed at me while chewing on her lips. A habit that she was used to. “You are a beautiful, smart, and kind lady. Let whatever hurtful words they say not affect you. You are beautiful just the way you are.”“Thank you, Miss Hammond.” A smile tugged at her lips.“You’re wel

Brenda G_____"You ran into Emilio at the gym?" Gena shrieked. She was too much to deal with, I couldn't hide anything from her."Shhh..." I shushed her. "You'll wake the neighbours," I added."Okay, I will shut up as soon as you tell me all about your little encounter with Emilio Laurel." She urged while adjusting herself on the comfortable sofa. She grabbed a piece of pizza from the open pizza box which was lying on my lap and took a bite.It was 8.00 pm in the night, Gena and I had come home after a long day at work. Since we were both exhausted, we decided to order take out which consisted of a box of pepperoni pizza. That night, we were in the sitting room, watching a telenovela while engaging in a conversation."Gee, the run-in was innocent. Nothing serious happened." I took a huge bite of the delicious slice of Pizza."Like I would believe that." She narrowed her eyes. " It's either you give me the deets, or I will be forced to get it out of you the hard way. I can be very per
