Smiling In Heaven

Michal and her sister Mirabella just got back from school, their mother wasn't around to pick them up as usual both girls had to board a cab home. Since their father died two years ago their mother, Catherine hardly had the time for her children she was always busy with her banking job she would tell them. "I have to work hard to fend for us, you girls know its not easy to be a single parent, I have to pay your school fees and other bills please try not to judge me." and then she would turn to Michal and say "Michal, you know the nature of my job please just try to understand and look after your sister for me. I promise it won't have to be like this forever." "Mom isn't back." Mirabella mumbled as she fumbled with the pillows on the sofa. "Back by this time? You are definitely missing it Mirabella." Michal sa

The following day was a midterm break for all schools, the students stayed back at home. Michal and her sister were seated on the couch of their large and well-furnished sitting room when they heard the doorbell ring."Mira, go get the door." Michal instructed."Okay," She stood up and made for the door, she open the door and saw Hammed standing by the door. He looked so cute, She stood still and admired him he wore a white t-shirt and a black ripped jean trousers and a pair of white sneakers .."Wow, you came." She whispered after feeding her eyes."Yes, did you give her?" He whispered back, making Mirabella giggle."Yes, I did." She nodded. "Come in and have a seat." She led him in."Hi Michal." Hammed greeted."Hammed?" Michal was surprised, she stood up not sure of what to say, "Hmmmmm, how did you get the address of my house." He made a signal with his eyes and M

Beep beep!Beep beep!The shrill sound of the alarm clock placed on the cabinet very close to Mirabella's bed side woke her. She groaned, she was enjoying her blissful sleep before the alarm came beeping. She struggled to get out of bed. Beep beep! Came the sound again."Seriously, Michal has to throw this thing away, it keeps disturbing me. What's with you and beep beep? you won't disturb Michal's sleep, but you love to disturb mine." She muted the clock and turned it over. "Rubbish! Now let's see if you will beep beep again." She yawned heavily, she finally got out of bed and walked directly to the bathroom she stretched and faced the mirror on the wall, she looked at herself her hair was in a mess "Whatever" she muttered, and scratched her itching scalp. She yawned again and bent to wash her face but something caught her attention, her palm, it was stained with blood. She loo

The class was so hot, Michal couldn't take more of her so called friend nonsense, like who does that? Go all the way to back stab  your friend cos of a random guy? No, he isn't just a random guy, he was more.But she didn't deserve the things Ruth was making her go through. She acted like Michal wasn't once her confidant, and she just threw it on her face in front of the whole class that she doesn't give a damn about their friendship, all because of Hammed?Michal Would give up everything for the sake of their friendship in the past but not anymore, Ruth was more of a foe than a friend. She got to the large almond tree behind the chemistry lab and sat on the deserted bench. She needed her solitude and it was even more better than a backstabbing friend. 'What happened? What went wrong? Why did Ruth changed' t

"Mom, when will you be back?" Lekky asked her mom, as she sipped her tea."Soon baby, I just want to visit a friend down the estate. Be a good girl while I'm away." Mrs Donalds kissed her daughter and stood up, she picked her bag up and head for the door. "Lekky Donalds, mom loves you." She blew a kiss her way and left the living room. Lekky smiled, her mom was really lovable and pretty, she took some of her features like the long hair that fell down to her shoulders, her fair skin, and the slimness of her body structure."Lekky Donalds." A voice called from behind, she turned her head backwards to look at him, he stood straight and moved his long thin legs, he placed a hand on the couch and the other on Lekky's shoulder."Uncle Solomon." Lekky looked at him, not blinking her eyes or moving away from her position. She wondered what he wanted from her this time."Did you tell your mom anything about me?" He
