When I woke up this morning he's already gone, I prepared quickly so I will meet up, luckily I arrived early, student haven't even arrived much, so I went inside our class to stay. What I saw will hunt me forever. Martha and the devil was kissing.
"What" I screamed and they broke the kiss"Hi Esther" Martha said shyly, the devil just smiled"Cupcake" he said, I left them both in anger, more angry that I love him and can't tell him, I ran to the old lab, its not in use so nobody will find me there. I cried so much I even lost track of time, I lost the strength to go back, mainly I don't want to face him. "Who do we have here" I heard Chike voice, they are now getting ready for their waec. Yea I forgot to say am now the Assistant prefect, Oliver the prefect. Am not enjoying it as I thought. Its even stressful "What do you want" I have no strength. "Does your brother knows you are here" he asked I didn't reply "men,I was walking home like a leaving corpse, what have I done, I shouldn't have brought it up, now I might loose my best friend, worse am still only a sister to my devil."Why do you always make me worry" I heard him say, he look all sweaty"How do you mean" I asked"I was almost home when I notice you weren't behind me, I have to rush back" he said breathing heavily"Am sorry" how can I stop loving you when he keeps doing this that warms my heart, I wish I can kiss him and tell him how much I love him, but I can't."Come on let's go home" he smiled at me, and we both walked home, yet again he made me forgot all my worries.The whole holiday, Martha kept begging, but he made it clear he have no feelings for her, that he can only be her friend, she accepted. When he noticed that Martha is keeping me at arms length and how it affects me, he tried to make peace with us"Do you girls know what I call girls that ruin their friendshi
When we arrived at the hospital mom is already awake, she is talking with dad"Mom how are you" I said apshe smiled, though weak"Am fine" she answered"You gave us quite the scare there" the devil said"Am sorry" mom said, trust the devil to make one apologize even in such situation"Well you're forgiven, cause you gave us a bundle of joy" he said with a smile, I couldn't agree more.Mom came home after a month, it was straight party for 2 weeks, we have started our August holiday, my grandmom came for her two weeks omugwo (that's when grandmother comes to help take care of the mother and the new baby). She came with one small girl. Nearing the end, daddy's parents also came to visit. It was a full house, so I have to share a room with the devil.Normally I would rather sleep on the cushion, but damn I want to have it even if for a day."So guys its just for one night" dad said to us. Devil was just nodding, I love it
He told me everything, what dad have already told me, what surprised me that he have loved me ever since."Why didn't you tell me about your feelings since you know we are not related" I asked"Well I discovered you love another, and I was nervous you will hate me if you knew about my mental break down" he said with a shrug"So why do you bully me then" I asked, we are now walking home"Cause that's the only way I can take most of your time, and make you think about me, even if its hate kind of way" he said, how mischievous"You know, my first kiss was Oliver it first like nothing, but yours gave me all the electricity and butterfly, even the second kiss still leaves me wanting more" I said, he chuckled"You think he is your first kiss" he laughed"Yea, I know who I kissed first" I said"You think I would allow someone take that from me" he said with a wink, he must have done something"What did you do devil" I asked, gi
As the march progress, everybody is disappointed, he kept missing the ball, even after dribbling his way to the goal post he will miss the shot. He is way out of his game, he will occasionally look at the two guys"What's wrong with your brother" Martha asked. I can't answered he isn't even enjoying the game, he doesn't look excited.He kept at it till first half was over, I have to go know what's wrong, I have to go to the team."What's your brother playing at" Oliver said to me as I approached the team"What do you mean by that" I barked at him"He missed even open post" he barked back, I hate the fact its true"Get away from her" I heard the devil speaks, we turn to him, he have the looks of a killer. Oliver knowing he is not someone to mess with gave us space and went I stood with the other players."What's wrong" I asked"How do you mean" he feigned innocent."You are way off your game, is something wrong" I a
The court is next week, dad already got a lawyer, I visit him allows, he is always happy to see him, I know he hides his sorrows, but no matter how much he tries to hide it, its still in his eyes."Sorry I didn't put on any make up to show you a beautiful me" I said,He cupped my cheek and looked at me "no make up can make one this beautiful" he said and I smile, he always have his ways "and I melt" again I released a little giggle'Cupcake I want to tell you something" he said"What" I asked"Forget me, move on with your life, this case is a simple one, I will be convicted. I will be lucky if the sentence is 15 years, you are a very beautiful girl with bright future don't worry about me. I" I slapped him before he finished, I don't care about the police this time. He looked at me"I once told you am prepared for war, you think you think I was just being poetic. Mr devil I mean every word of it" I said as firm as I can, he looked at me
(Devils POV)Am just starring at the girl, that just don't mean the world to me but changed the world also, she is watching her favourite tv program and am watching her. I have been doing that since I can remember, I always look at her when she is not seeing. That way I get to see how she slowly smile when something good happen, or how she gasp or make a happy song."I told you, he will marry her" she said, I smiled, I don't even know what the program is about. I feel more about her every day. I fall either for her contagious laugh, or warm smile or baby like wink, she justp mesmerize me. All these started the day I went into that store, I never knew what I find there will change me for life. I was bullying her that was the only way I get her to think about me, if it was possible I would have beat the crap out of Oliver, but I can't cause he have nothing to do with this. I left cause my heart couldn't handle the pain, but was damn happy when I came back and saw her
(Devil's POV)"Mom, what will we name her?" I asked as I maneuver slowly, the boss is letting me drive today. Everybody is happy it been long my parents have been waiting for this child. So, it took me 13 years to have a kid sister, the ultrasound said so."Will haven't thought about that," My mom said rubbing her belly gently with a gorgeous smile, she is sitting in the back, I stared at her through the mirror, just for a bit and returned my focus to the road. Am sitting on the boss laps as he helps me maneuver."Boss, it's time for you to marry," my dad said, he started calling his best friend boss too because that's what I call him."Haven't found the right person." he replied with a slight chuckle and my mom scoffed."Are you even looking?" she asked. A little conversation ensued and boss makes sure not to accelerates the car so that it will be easy for me, I turned back to look at my mom as she said something funny. It happene
"Where is my favourite lover boy," I heard Amanda calling, I rushed out from my room only to be engulfed by her, I missed her."I missed you so much." I said as I wrapped my arms around."I know, I always leave a space that can't be filled." she jested as she broke the hug, always trust Amanda to praise herself."So how have you been?" I asked as I followed her to her room to unpack, am sure Aunt Margret will be fixing her something already."Same old, am more interested in knowing about your life." she said with a grin, I know that would be the case so I just looked away "our lover boy is shy" she cooed and I denied the accusation, but seriously who wouldn't be.I sat on the chair as she dropped her box on the bed and started unpacking, she is the sister I never had."So, am all ears," she said. She is someone that will never let go of any opportunity to hear something interesting."Nothing much, you already know I have not gone to see her since I left," I said
