"I-, I don't know who to pick", he said unsure, his hands fidgeting nervously as he intertwined his fingers. “Make up your mind”, I said, urging him. “Calvin, we don't have all day”, said Mrs Jones, exhausted from our little antics. “If you don't make up your mind I am going to choose for you”, she said. Looking at us both, Calvin made up his mind. “I choose Kiana”, he said finally. “I am so sorry”, he whispered to Zoe. I stood beside him smiling triumphantly, as if I just won a gold medal. “Zoe can you please join Lina”, Mrs Jones said as she pointed to Lina's direction. Feeling scorned, She picked up her bag and books while giving me and Calvin a dirty look as she walked away towards Lina's desk. Throughout the school day, Zoe refused to talk to me or even acknowledge my presence. Even when we boarded the school bus to go home, I kept a seat for her in our usual position and when she entered the bus, she ignored my tapping on the seat and went to sit down with anoth

One week had passed after my last altercation with Alexandria. I thought he would bring up our last conversation regarding the owner of the artwork I was working on, but to my surprise, he never brought it up. Not even when we had breakfast and dinners together. It took a week for the painting to dry properly. Today's the day I meet up with Asher at his house to drop off the painting. He was also hosting his housewarming party today. His band's tour had finally come to an end as he was preparing for his six month hiatus and his apartment was ready, just in time for him to move in. I knew that many of my friends from both our high school days and college days would be in attendance, and I knew that the news of me marrying a very powerful man had spread around, so I knew I had to look and play the role of a billionaire's wife. I sighed “this new life is surely an exhausting and tiring one”.“I wonder why he decided to invite our old classmates to his housewarming party. I would ask

I opened the door to a dark house welcoming me when I reached home from the party, I immediately assumed that everyone had gone to bed.I came back from the party late in the night at about 11:30 pm to midnight. We had spent more time than we initially planned as we played some games and caught up on our various lives.One of the activities we played at Asher's house was truth or dare, those who wouldn't choose between truth or dare had to drink about a large cup of beer. I had mostly opted out of playing so I had to drink when it was my turn during the game.I was so drunk that I couldn't drive back home so I didn't drive back home.Calvin had offered to drive me back home but I refused as I knew Alexandria would go off the rails if he saw Calvin drop me off. So Asher offered to order an uber to take me home as I turned down Calvin's offer.Even in my drunken state I knew to walk-in stealthily by tiptoeing to my room to avoid being heard by Alexandria and his series of questions abo

(Kiana’s P.O.V)Coming out from the bathroom into my bedroom I switched on my phone, after putting it off to avoid calls from Alexandria’s controlling self.We had just had what was beginning to seem like an almost daily banter. This banter is beginning to become frequent and I am starting to think he does this on purpose just to get a rise out of me or is he just bored.We had just argued again yesterday morning before I left for work. This time around the cause of the argument was something do stupid.We had argued over breakfast on who gets the say on foods that should be served for breakfast.Stupid I know but I don't know why these past days I always get triggered when he says something I know I would otherwise ignore if it were to be said by someone else.Using my smaller towel to dry my hair, I waited patiently as my phone rebooted. Still waiting for it to finish loading, I decided to apply lotion on my body. While I was done with applying my body lotion, I checked to see if
