WINTERI stepped Into the cafeteria to see people gawking as well as taking endless pictures of whatever Gawd knows what. I shifted closer, then craned, which was utterly useless as a result of my deficiency in the height department. The giants and giantess at my front did not help either as they chattered happily whilst creating a noisy kissy sound which made me want to see whatever had gripped their attention the more. I wonder what was going on.I scanned the cafeteria and spotted my best friend, Zaylee, babbling with Alyssa, the snobbish bitch who assumed her father controls the whole world. Lee waved when her eyes met mine. Her hair fanned across her face as she trotted towards me. "Oh, my Gosh Winnie," Her sea-green eyes sparkled as she gushed. She paused dramatically, fanned her face and let out a

REYMy eyes snapped open from the disturbing nightmare which evaded my thoughts and had been occurring frequently now.Remembering how lifeless and helpless she had looked made me want to kill the bastard that left her in that position at first. It made me rue the day I knew and took him to be someone so dear to me.The beast destroyed everything for me. Almost took my dream away in the process if it wasn't my mom that swooped in. She often suffers several degrees of burns for my sake and she didn't mind though for she had said she was protecting her “legacy" whenever I asked why she never stops trying to get hurt for my sake.A hand splayed across my chest rubbing me of my thoughts. I twisted my head to see Alyssa, her lower body covered with a blanket whilst the upper was bare- showing off her ample chest."Rey darling." She purred."Allysa," I warned, sho

WINTERThe warm sunshine that streamed through the classroom window did nothing to help my concentration as I sat in class vying to engage in what was being taught.The teacher's monotonous voice, droning on about some dead men who fought in a battle hundreds of years ago was gradually putting me to sleep.I feigned writing only to discover I had been nodding off. My eyes snapped open rapidly and I glanced at my notebook.The last line I had written on the page ends with nonsensical words before it became a straight line that ran off the page. Then I focused on what the teacher currently was explaining only to learn that he had moved on to another topic.Mr Jackson, our history teacher didn't care if what he said got stuck in our brain since he addressed himself rather than the students, leaving the question aspect for later.Furthermore, anyone who couldn

REYWhen I dropped off Nora at her school, I left for mine after several contemplations.My stomach lurched as I backed into the lot reminding me how I hated Mondays and going to school from the onset.Also, having history, as the first lesson for the day made the feeling worst for I disliked the subject- perhaps, because of how boring it was or maybe I just loathed going to school.My mother had told me I had cried, scratched and bite when I first got enrolled in daycare. I ended the drama in third grade but I still didn't get used to the idea of schooling.I stepped down from my car, took a container that could fit inside the pocket of my brown hoodie from the back seat. I passed by some students in the lot, their eyes glued on me as I walked in.I punched the code of my locker in and took out a blue lighter- because of days like this, I had kept it in t

WINTERWhat is wrong with today? I mused, stretching my aching limbs.Even geography, my favourite class was gradually boring me to tears.I had to combine the classes with what I do when bored. I snoozed in history class whilst this, I combined it with daydreams, by staring out the window and making a mental note of ten things I needed to do before graduation comes.*Apply to one of the best performing colleges*get Rey to ask me outThat was the only two things my thought came up with as Lee kept prodding me to listen to her.Rolling my eyes, I twisted facing her. She recounted the party she went to the night before, giving me the full details in a hushed voice.Lee attended all the party hosted in school as she practically knew everyone. Also, she was one of the popular kids which earned her the pass to b

WINTER"Hey, Winnie the Pooh," Rey called out, waving as Lee and I strolled past the football pitch. I rolled my eyes and waved back. It was weird how we were behaving like casual friends. We just began talking today and he has given me a nickname which I was stuck with since he had called me more than fifty times today in everyone's presence and he did it by yelling."Winnie the Pooh?" Lee questioned and continued. "And when did you start talking to Rey?""Since we were paired and he said he did not intend calling me my real name anytime soon since "Winnie the Pooh" seems cuter!" I giggled, quoting his word."Are you saying Rey found you cute?" Lee inquired, frowning."I wished," I murmured."He only said the name is cute not me. Also, I know he was just teasing me.""Who knows if he finds the bearer secretly cute too." Lee prompted as we sat down on

WINTERTossing and turning on my bed, I couldn't sleep any longer. The light from the moon, streaked inside my room through a break in the curtain, brightening it. I twisted to check the time from the clock on my bedside table. It was a few minutes past four and still quite early for me to be awake.About going back to sleep, my phone glowed on the nightstand signalling a call. I swiped up to unlock it, an unknown number flashed on the screen. My face contorted into a grimace as I pondered if I had given my number out.Certainly, I would remember if I did.I answered, and about to say that the person had gotten the wrong number when I listened to the voice at the other end."Rey?""Yep. I thought I got the wrong number, so bye." He said with a chuckle."Wait, " I whispered, careful not to wake Hailey. The wall

"Flour, ""Checked," I replied as Lee listed what was available for the cookies we desire to make for the sleepover.Lee put in some flour into a bowl, added butter and sugar. I watched as she mixed it. Dipping my thumb into the bowl, I took some of the batters, slipping it into my mouth."This tastes better than the others we made," I said, licking my finger as we finished mixing the third ingredients for the cookies.Lee grinned, taking the compliment.Unlike I, Lee had won several awards in baking competitions since she clocked eighth. Eight years old me was enrolled for singing lessons and ballet classes instead.The kitchen now looked a mess since I was in charge. My presence alone invoked disorderliness in kitchens. The bottom line was I couldn't cook to even save my own life.We sang nursery rhymes as we baked the last batch of cookies. Then I switc

WINTERA honk sounded outside snapping me awake. Rolling over, I took the pillow to encircle my ear as the honk continues. In no time, the idiot blaring it would make me go deaf.It was the beginning of the week meaning another boring Monday. I would have to sit in history class all over again. A routine I wished I could eradicate.Hopefully, this week looks promising since I had gotten a spot in the popular squad.My hand went beneath the pillow to my right, brought out my phone as it vibrated.Rolling over, I grinned as Rey's name flashed on the screen. For the past two days, we had been texting and talking a lot, which made my feelings now harder to ignore. Hitting the answer button, I placed it on speaker so I wouldn't stress myself by glueing it to my ear."Hello,""Morning sunshine." He replied, his voice laced with sarcasm.
