2020-07-03 05:24:43Isn't it crazy how your whole life can change just from the few people you meet? How they have the ability to trick you, manipulate your mind and have you bending over to their own will
The fact that one person can make you change your whole outlook on life and how you see yourself is scary and truly amazing too. That they can make you forget your morals and true values
What you believe in and how you look at life. That was K for me. He made me feel good about myself and accept myself. True we had our differences but I like to believe we helped each other grow...apart.
My names Rina, and I'm short and chubby with a cute soft belly that could be a pretty comfortable pillow. I have hazel-brown eyes, thick small pink lips, a light shade of chocolate as my skin colour and shoulder length goldish brown hair thats really hard to tame. In conclusion I'm black.
"Are you sure this is what you want?" My mom asked me over the phone and I rolled my eyes
"Mma, I'm already in Cape Town. What difference will it make?" I asked and she squealed
"Don't get mad, but I already had purchased the return ticket for today and you still have about 30 minutes to turn back." She rushed out and I rolled my eyes
"Mma. It's not like grade eight this time, don't you think it's time I grow to be independent, like you?"
"Yeah...but you could still do it here, at home. With me your mother."
"You know the reason why I chose Cape Town."
"But is it the only reason?"
"It's a good reason. But I'll talk to you once I reach Mr S' house. Wait you told him I'll be staying there while I finalize everything right?"
"Suuurrreee."
"Mma."
"I'll call him now! I forgot. I'm so sorry baby."
"Ha ngoho." [Wow]
"Don't you say it!" She hates it that I tell her she's getting old everytime she forgets something important. I like playing around with her
"I won't. So what should I do, order a Uber go his place or wait for him to come get me?" I asked
"He is on his way. I'm sorry again. I'll stay on the phone until he gets there." She said and I chuckled
"I won't tell you what he's wearing." I said and she whined
"Why not!" My mom and I were very close, like sisters people would say. She would tell me whenever she's get a boyfriend and at first it sucked because it wasn't my dad but as I got older I understood
"Because...I don't know. Just ask him to take a selfie or something." She's been dating Mr S for a year now, they met when I was in grade eleven and she played hard to get for about a whole year and she finally gave in to his charms
I honestly gave in when I met him and he bought me something my mom didn't want to and sent me money every month. So I've always been on team Mr S.
"Argh whatever. Anyways guess who came by when I dropped you off?"
"Who?" Please don't say Andii, please don't say his...
"Andani!" Shit!
"Oh." I said and she carried on talking about him
"That boy was beautiful though Rina." She said and I rolled my eyes
"Not everywhere." I said and she sighed
"Why don't you try listening to his side of the..."
"Whoops mom Mr S just arrived, talk later." I interrupted her because 1. I don't want to talk about it and 2. Mr S is really here
"Let me talk to him."
"Call him." I hung up and I felt really bad about it but I was angry
"Hey sweetheart." He hugged me and took my bags from him, "I'm sorry I took time." He said and I shook my head no
"No it's okay. It was my mistake I didn't check if mom called you."
"Oh, but I hope you're hungry. Martha has cooked up a storm upon your arrival."
"She really didn't have to do that."
"She wanted to." He placed my bags in the backseat of his car and closed my door as well.
"You guys are so sweet." I smiled at him and he kissed my forehead. This man is awesome and I'm glad my mom met him
"I'm glad she met me too." He said and I looked at him shocked
"I said that out loud?"
"You have no idea how much stuff you say out loud." He laughed and I shrink in my seat, "it's not a bad thing."
His phone rings and I see my mother's name written across the screen, although it's not really written as 'Grace' it's much more...in a relationship written
"Hey baby." Eew.
"Hey. Is she angry at me? I mentioned Andii and she got really angry hung up the phone."
"You're on loud speaker baby. Are you angry Rina?" I shook my head no and he smirked knowing that I don't want to talk yet, "She's fine, she's got her headphones on." I gave him a thumbs up and grinned, he really knows how to cover up for me.
"The way to two cover up for each other is annoying! But since I know you are listening Rina, I'm sorry I talked about him and I will try my best not to bring him up okay? I love you both. Bye."
"Bye." We both muttered. Everytime we came to Mr S' house I am amazed! This house is enormous
"Your room is still arranged the same as it was last time."
"Thank you Mr S. I'm gonna go take a nap. See you at dinner."
I walk away to the bedroom he gave me last time, we've been coming to this house for our holidays and it never gets boring. I guess it's the privacy
I jump onto the king sized bed and stare at the ceiling before falling asleep. Hello Ms future designer life...
A/N so hey, I decided to change chapter 1 because it sucked for me and I felt as if it wasn't attention grabbing enough... hopefully this tries a bit better. But thank you guys for actually checking out my book! It means a lot to me❤️

The Falling. Chapter 5.
Three months later.So much time has passed and life has been a bubble of bliss. Ian and I are still going strong but lately I feel as if he is pulling away. When I asked him about he said I was looking for a fight."Baby,is there anything wrong with us?""What do you mean?""Tell me if I'm wrong,but lately it feels as if we're not connected like we used to,are you comfortable being with me?""Where's all this coming from Rina!?" he raised his voice and YEAH he called me Rina!! That hurt so bad...what happened to 'sweetcakes'"Woah! Why are you shouting? It was
The Falling. Chapter 4.
School begins today after such a heavy weekend. From Zo's endless disappointed stares and getting used to the campus,I'm pretty hyped for class. I get in and choose a sit somewhere in the middle but good enough to hear what the lecturer will be saying.Some guy sits next to me and he's really good looking like amazing! He's got nice sharp cheekbones, beautiful eyebrows-bushy like. His lips are just wonderful and I wonder how great it would be to kiss those. Wait why I'm I thinking like that...I'm attracted to Ian,YES I AM.He's hair is properly styled and looks very good...a guy who takes care of his hair is to be appreciated. He wears a grey shirt that says 'I don't like being looked at.' And I feel as if he's telling me because he shifted his body
The Falling. Chapter 3.
Butterflies in my stomach and legs wobbly like jelly as we reach an isolated place which is surprisingly beautiful. I think we're in some artsy environment because there's paintings all over the walls and blank canvases all around and it smells like paint so yeah.He leads me to the stage and I immediately sit on it legs dangling on the edge, I prompt myself on my hands and lean back admiring the room. I see Ian looking at me from the corner of my eye, grinning like he's won a prize...maybe I am."What?" I ask him matching his smile."Nothing, I was just admiring your beauty Ri" he says with a wide smile...OMFG he shortened my already short name to 'Ri'! I'm having a 'thank you speech' in my head already and I can't help the blush that rises to my cheeks after what he just said...'I'm beautiful:>'..."Cheesy line, but thanks" I try to sound not affected. His laugh is so precious he has me joining in in
The Falling. Chapter 2.
So here I am standing in front of the administration office about to get my student card and dorm key. I'm not a fan of staying in dorms but I guess this will have to do for the next three months until I have got enough to rent out that beautiful apartment I saw in an ad.I already called the owner and he said I'll have to live with a roommate, and thats cool with me...as long as the person is clean and doesn't mind listening to music[my kind is considered weird, but is whatever:)].I'm in my dorm on the third floor and as soon as I step in, I'm welcomed by a short girl with hazel eyes, short curly hair like an afro and a sweet dark chocolate skin colour almost a replica of Lupita Nyongo and all I can think to myself is 'SHE'S SO FUCKING BEAUTIFUL!'and I j
