Novels by Pleasant Matthew

So, I decided to give you this story of their high school, then move to college before coming back to the present to tell you what happens between them later on, I guess you need to understand roots of their relationship and the reasons for their fight and everything, before you can understand the actions being taken by the both of them presently. The high school will contain two POVs, that of Nova and Jordan.This chapter is dedicated to Maya_kelly4That being said, let us dive into the book.Jordan.It was crazy getting Nova home, the doctor said she was fine and I could take her, it was the shock of her father's death.I managed to find her car in the car park and got her in, the problem was knowing where she lived. The stress was causing me headaches as my head was not yet healed.

Nova.I picked up the remote, it is afterall a Sunday, Netflix is the best plan for today.Looking through the movies available, I decided to watch black-ish all over again."Not again" oh no, I forgot Honey was still here, she was just waking up, imagine. I am sure she has no idea about Trish's crazy IG post."Be worried about what your mom will say about Trish's post and worry less about my choice of movie" I told her and turned back to focus on my movie, grabbed Twinkie where Trish had dumped her, I pulled her close and sat with my two legs crossed on a footstool."No way!!!" Honey screamed, really? Was it that bad? At least they have parents who worry about what they post online, oh that reminds me, Mom slept over at the hospital yesterday and I should go visit dad today.Oh, Honey just screamed, should I react? should I not? I definitely should just focus on my movie

NovaI was pacing back and forth in my living room, Trish was seated cuddling my teddy, fool! Miley on the other hand was seated next to Honey.We just couldn't believe her mom was marrying Samuel. Tara will feel so high, only heaven knows what she will make out this."This can't happen" Honey almost cried, I know how much she hates these weddings."It won't" Miley assured her, my whole head on the other hand was a total mess thinking about how to put an end to this craziness."Maybe you should just tell her you don't want it" Trish told her probably without thinking, how would she expect Honey walking up to her mom only to tell her she does not want her to marry who she wants to marry.Sometimes I wonder what is wrong with Trish, she never even knows what to say at anytime. Honey shot her a really bad face."Really?" Miley asked her with a durr face. But she just s

NovaWhere were we last time? Oh, I told you about Tony, next was Carrick, he really did like me and my friends, especially honey thought he was "The One".Well, he was the kind of guy any lady wants, caring, loving, romantic, handsome, god-fearing, yeah he was a total package but he happened not to be in love with me but obsessed.I got some guys to scare him, his mother had to no choice than to move out of town just to ensure her son was safe. So sad.Felix was next, Miley thought he was so badass."Bad boys are the best" She told me, well until he cheats on you with the bitch Tara.Finally Jordan, the topic for our Girls night today.I was shocked to find my mom at home when I returned, I thought she had a flight today. Mom is a really busy air hostess, I barely see her and dad, he has been sick for close to six months now and I had to be responsible

NovaIt was so annoying having to do this, Jordan is just going to make me go crazy but do I have a choice? That is what you get from sleeping with the boss?."Come over Ms. Lionel" Gabby, the make-up artist called me over for what I know will end up as hours of make-up.I went over regardless, it is not like I have a choice, do I? Well.... Now that I think of it, I do."Can you please give me few minutes?" I pleaded with Gabby and went over to speak with Drey who was busy talking to someone over the phone."Can I call you later?" He asked whoever it was he was speaking with and ended the call. He raised his head up to stare at me as he was lower than I am in his seated position.His wide smile almost got me smiling as well but it seemed as though my anger and concern was way too much compared to his contagious smile."What is all these Drey? Modell

JordanI wanted to do this shoot and get over with, especially when I will have to team up with Shem. When I got here yesterday, I saw her insulting workers in here and later on she was flirting with me making me dislike her immediately.She seem to be a new recruit and she was already all over the place, when she called this morning that she wouldn't be able to make it for the shoot, I was so glad.Ramos was pissed when he heard that she cancelled, everything was arranged in a rush and now she cancelled, it only mean all these stress will be gone through again just because of her."This is completely messed up, I can't work with lackadaisical people like this" Ramos lamented, he was visibly stressed. Then an idea popped into my head."I know this is out of it but can Nova pair up with me?" Judge me all you can, I'm selfish, yes I am but I just have to do this.There is

AmandaI sat on the road and pleaded for money from passers-by "please help me for God sake, I'm hungry" I said each time I saw someone pass by. Some people give me money while many others just walked pass me.It was not easy when the sun came out, I really suffered! Once it was after noon, I went to a small restaurant and ate Amala and abula without meat.It seemed as though people who sell here in Lagos doesn't mind what I looked like as long as they made their money. One I was done eating, I looked at my bag and saw I had just a thousand naira aside the five thousand I had before. This is after all something.In no time it was night and I knew my money was not safe, neither was I, I kept

AmandaIt was a long walk from the orphanage to the main road since the orphanage was located far inside the street, I removed five hundred naira from the money I took and boarded the next bus I saw, not knowing where it was even going.I sat in the bus for hours and watched people enter, not once did I notice how people avoided to sit beside me until the driver came to me."Small girl, please get off my bus, you chasing people out with your weird looking eyes" he said rather too harsh, it was then everything made sense to me.The moment people get to my side, the quickly move to the seats behind me and now the other seats are filled up except the one I sat on."Please sir, I have no other means" I pleaded with the driver but he would not listen to me."Get off my bus now! I wonder who in their right sense allowed a girl as small as you travel alone" he yelled at me and I

AmandaI look back to when granny Betty was still alive, how I always cried to her when I was mistreated."Granny, Fatilah poured water on me, she said I am not human" I cried to granny Betty who held me in her embrace and patted my back."They are just jealous of you because you are special" Granny told me, although I knew she only wanted to make me feel better, I appreciated."My mismatching email is a big problem granny, is there no way I can get a cure?" Granny looked at me in mere shock, I grew scared, was she scared of me now?"How do you know such words?" She asked me, I felt a bit relieved."You gave me a dictionary remember? I have been reading it" she cupped my face and smiled, she was definitely proud of me, I didn't deserve her love yet she gave it to me without thinking.The day I heard she died, I practically died with her, I felt my backbone

AmandaRewind"Not this weird one" once again I got rejected, it hurt my seven years old heart.Ever since I was old enough to know what was going on, I realized no one love me, every couple that comes to adopt a child from the orphanage where I was, always rejected me.I don't blame them though, I am after all that girl with two coloured eyes, I will run away from me if I were to be in their shoes. No friends, nobody, I was just always on my own.Sometimes I wonder why they took me in, they should have just left me to die, my parents should have just aborted me.You must be wondering how I know this much, just a seven year old kid. Well, maybe my eyes is not the only one with defect, my brain is as well, seeing that I knew more than I should at my age.I read varieties of books, books that should be too advanced for me, yet I understood e
