Chapter 32Lying on the bed staring at the 7 inch ceiling decorated with a nice work of aesthetics, I could only imagine the grid of suggestions Tiffany would bring to the table to spice up the whole room. I could not speak nor feel the pain that was draining my breath. I did not know how but drops of tears kept rolling from my eyeliner down to my cheeks, I could not bring myself to recognize the direction at which the pain had engulfed me so much that I produced those tears running down. I knew. I knew she was not coming back, I just wanted her to style me once more, for her to tell she puts on me seems to look stunning on me. She was already planning her 21st Birthday party. Tiffany believed so much in birthdays especially those that came with special entourage, but now sadly she could not turn 21 after all. She just died and left everything, absolutely everything.“But why, why” I kept asking myself or possibly the universe, as that night the world looked unfamiliar and through my
“ohhhh ahhhhh ouhhh ahhhh”I could hear disgusting sounds from the window opposite mine.“What was it this time?” I asked as I walked towards the window to check what the sound I had heard was about, and honestly what I saw did not come as a surprise to me.Davis Garraway was doing what he was best known for and that was making out with a girl. The Garraways lived in the house close to ours, Davis’ window was right opposite mine.I stared intensely through that window trying to figure out if I could identify the girl with shadows I had seen. I knew it would be a different girl I mean it was Davis for Pete’s sake the reigning, defending king of girls. As I looked closer, I tried to make out who it was when Davis noticed I was standing there.“Hey, Goblin what are you doing staring at me” he shouted and opened the curtains to look.My heart raced as I tried to hide, few seconds later I tried peeping again from my hiding spot to see if he had shut the curtains again.“You know goblin you
CHAPTER 1 My name’s Charity Goldtown, I’m a 17-year-old 5’6 sink black straight haired light brown skinned girl who grew up without a father nor any other family member except my mom. I know it sounds weird like who grows up without any family? but actually I did. My father died when I was still 2 and when he died my grandparents, his parents had abandoned my mom and sent her out, well that was what I was told. I know the question that just popped in your head, what about her mom’s family. My mom was an only child of pilot and a nurse, her mom the nurse had died after her birth and her father the pilot died when she was 22, his plane crashed, I know tragic right. Well I guess all that had happened in my mom’s life had made her develop immunity to pain , she never shows signs of pain or cries. One time on my birthday she sent messages to my grandparents that it was my birthday she thought they would come and instead they ignored her. My mom moved us to LA, California to start up a n
CHAPTER 2 Starman college located at the northern side of California at Oakland was founded by early scholars and it has remained prestigious and has remained the most prestigious school in the whole of California and might be the best in the whole United states. I opened the mail and guess what, yep, I got accepted into Starman college, yayyyyy, I know right, the most prestigious college in California, not like I had any doubt that I would get in I mean its Charity Goldtown, if they didn’t accept me who would they accept. I was so happy and excited, yayy I’m a star now, that’s what they call students from Starman “stars” I was still having my moment when my mom cut in “Davis got accepted too to study the same course, guess your academic rivalry continued” she said and that was a kill joy “What?” I asked and she nodded and left for work. ********* Davis was going to the same college as me, Davis! the same Davis I hated a lot. Davis Garraway had always been a painful thorn in
CHAPTER 3 The Garraways were well known in California and around the world as Mike and Stacy Garraway, renowned astronomer and CEO of the Garraway group of hotels and suite respectively were married with two kids, Davis, no need for introduction and Mitchell, a 6-year-old bright ash haired, green eyes girl who was the pride of the family. The Garraways were richer than the city’s mayor although they don’t show off, well maybe not all of them. Davis was known to buy new cars each day a new model had been released and ensured he wore nothing less than designers made by only three specific designers; Louis Vuitton, D&G and his all-time favorite Gucci. Davis had been known all over the neighborhood and he did not give a single fuck about. His parents on the other hand were mostly never around given the nature of their job and Mitchell had a nanny to look after her. Since we moved to California, the Garraways were always involved in one of our shits. Yep if anything had happened with our
Chapter 4 The morning was bright, the sun was shining so bright like it was its last day to shine. The birds were hyperactive as the sang melodious tunes and jumped through branches. I knew it was a good day. I went to the window side to get fresh air, then I saw Davis packing his bags already, he turned around and saw me staring at him. “Why are you peeping through my window goblin, go find help goblin while you still can, “this obsession you have with me is getting out of hand” he smirked and winked at me while he closed his window. “His nerves” I grunted as I shut mine He was annoyingly going to the same college I got accepted into, turns out I won’t be getting rid of Davis Garraway any time soon, yayy. I went and took my bath then I started packing. “Peach are you not done yet? we have a long trip ahead of us” my mom screamed from down stairs. “I’m almost done mom’’ I replied as I continued. ********* As soon as I finished, I quickly went down to the kitchen to have some
Chapter 5 I got out of the car and I looked up and saw it Starman college. It was as beautiful as I had imagined it was way bigger than I imagined too. This college was known to be one of the best in California like I mentioned earlier, with its recommendations and grade A teachers you were already on a path to a bountiful and respectable future if you were accepted. I stared at it for a while and I was imagining my road map to becoming the best international lawyer the world has seen when my mom spoke. “This is the big one peach, this is the big one, this is the big one” my mom said as she burst out in tears, I knew she was emotional she probably could not believe she was able to pull it off and provide me a good life. “Mom mom no no mom not this, not now” I tried to comfort her. “I know, I know, it’s just that you’ve grown up so well that I’m so proud, look at you, you are standing right in front of Starman and see you becoming the star you are fated to become already” She conti
Chapter 6My mom prepared my life’s blue print, and in the blue print one of the important details there was the kind of people I had to interact with, the kind of friends I was to make and the kind of people I should have business with. The blueprint only allowed me to mingle with the rich, the smart, straight, famous and prestigious people and anything asides that was banned.My mom had barged into my hostel room when I was just about to talk and yep it wasn’t a friendly scene.“Are these indecent girls going to share a room with you peach?” she asked me as I tried to shut her up“Who the hell are you guys” she asked while analyzing the two British girls that were in the room I got assigned to.“Um this is our room” the second girl answered in a rude tone.“Ohh no the both of you can not be in this room” my mom added“And why can’t we ma’am” the first girl asked“Cos my peach is in this room and my peach cannot be found sharing a room with you guys” she added as she pointed at them
