The following day I was woken up by my phone blurring and I even regretted not putting it on silent. "What?" I answered without even seeing who the called was. 'is that how you answer your sister's call?' I should have known. And darn Paris was so back in my life right now.. "On a Sunday when I'm supposed to be resting and she calls.. I can talk to her anyhow.." I responded not even phased. 'cool.. you're forgiven because I need your help.. can you come be my videographer...for today's interview.' Really? "Paris don't you have like a professional person who works for you?" 'i do..but it's Sunday and they asked this Sunday off.. besides, I think you'd be perfect.. please say yes..' she said. "I'm busy Paris.. what time is this?" 'Please say yes.. pretty please.. I will do anything you want. Heck I can even offer you a job.. please say yes..' She begged. Which was so unlike her. She must have been desperate. I sighed, "fine... but I don't want your job.. I'll be there... what
"I can't believe this took four hours..." I watched Tee say that in a whisper to my sister. Paris laughed and sat on the wing of the couch which Tee was sitting on, "I actually can. I was a bit distracted.. can you blame me?" Tee shook her head and bit her lower lip, "no.. no I can't.. same here.." I cleared my throat and couldn't wait to finish putting my things in my bag. I wanted to leave as soon as possible. Tawny started texting on her phone and Paris asked, "I ordered Nandos.. wanna join us?" I shook my head when I noticed she was talking to me, "no.. I'm not that hungry.. So I'll just let you guys enjoy yeah?" She smiled, "you are the best.. thank you for this.. a lot okay." I shrugged, she was my sister, so I had her back always, "I'm glad I could help." "When do you think you'll be done with editing and all that?" "Umh.. three days.. I have class tomorrow.. I'll start editing when I get home, so in two to three days." "Alright.. do you want something to drink?" I sh
They came to sit down and Paris apologized for arriving late. My heart and mind were not here anymore. "At least you finally made it though.." Liam joked and everyone laughed. Tawny sat in between me and Paris and rested her hand over my sister's shoulder then whispered something. Paris laughed. I closed my eyes and shifted a bit uncomfortable. I had no idea that she invited my sister too. "Okay.. who wants wine again?" Olivia asked and I was so not in the mood anymore. They started talking about work since my sister mentioned her interview that dragged. I found out that Eliana was an acting CEO at her father's company and Liam had an NGO that actually helped youth with Art and sports after school.. well their girlfriends I didn't pay much attention.. I zoned them out thinking that maybe I should come up with an excuse and leave."Amora...."I mean they were so consumed in whatever they were talking about that I was sure I'd never even be recognized if I left. They wouldn't notice
I stumbled towards her gate and opened the small one she opened and got out. I didn't even care if it wasn't closed, I just wanted to be out of there. I looked at my phone and my ride was two minutes away. Without even thinking I started walking down the road and saw a car coming from far. It stopped next to me and I smiled, "you're my ride?" He nodded and I got inside the car then it made a U-turn and started driving towards Randburg. I regretted going there with everything in me, like why did I even put myself through that? Of course my sister was going to be there. They were hooking up. Did I expect her not to be there? I mean they were hanging out and loving it and chilling and all that. God I hated how felt. Was I even suppose to be feeling like this? "Umm we are here," the driver said after stopping the car and I got off, "thank you.." Then I went to the gate and the security opened the gate for me, "Amora...?" Ahh it was the old man I loved who acted like my father somet
TAWNYI sighed and looked at my phone, it's been almost five days since the kiss and she has never gotten back to me, she wasn't taking my calls, it was clear she was avoiding me. I was so confused and still had no idea what was happening. I mean I was so shocked when she came over last week drunk at night... and I was insanely worried when she got mad and left, hence I followed her back to her dorm. Then the kiss. Godness, I wasn't ready for that yet I didn't even stop her. Everything I felt for her before I pushed it back way back and decided to concentrate on someone else resurfaced. It was like it just came out.There was no denying, I liked her so much, but when I realized how much she was happy and how she really loved her boyfriend I took a step back and decided to just suppress my feelings... and right now she was so confusing to me. I sighed, maybe she didn't want to talk to me because she made a drunken mistake by kissing me and now she was ashamed.I shook my head and h
The drive to Amora's dorm was so short as I was looking forward to getting there and getting everything out of this girl. I needed us to fix things so I can have my friend back.The security old man knew me already, he smiled when he saw me, "my favorite player..." I smiled, "is she in?" "She got back an hour ago. Her roommate just left now." "Thank you Uncle.. I won't be long." He shook his head, "take as long as you want my child, my shift ends tomorrow.. it started at 4.." "Thank you Uncle.. bye.." and I drove in, parked my car where he usually let's me park and went up to Amora's room. I knocked and no one answered. I prayed that she wasn't sleeping. I knocked again and heard her groan, 'i swear one can't be in peace here.. if it's not my roommate it's Lu...' She kept quiet the moment she realized I am not Luna.. coz I'm sure she was about to say that."Hey..."She rolled her eyes and walked her inside, I followed her in the room.. "Who allowed you to get in Tawny..""They
AMORA"Come on.. fix the background..." daddy told me while pointing the unfinished painting in front of us. I looked at it for a while and sighed, "umh dad...""Yes honey?" I wasn't so sure if the background we initially talked about was what I wanted to continue with right now, but I had no idea how to bring that up. As much as my dad was a great teacher. We was also a strict one.. and I didn't know how to go about with this. He looked at the painting then back at me, "you have something in mind?" "Umm.. I was thinking.. it's just a thought okay.. instead of having this big ocean behind our people, can we change it.. maybe have some place where it wouldn't be comfortable for a person to be in. Like... let's say Jail.. so walls in this case.. I was thinking and we make them two girls and not a guy and a girl..." "Why?" He asked and I sighed not knowing where to start. How do I explain that I see what everyone else who isn't Paris goes through. My sister was out of the closet an
On Thursday I got a call from the "don't call me" lady. She told me they need someone but not permanently. There was awards this coming Saturday and they needed someone who will capture them since their staff was busy with something else and the actual guy was a bit injured. I didn't refuse.. anything to keep me busy. Nash and Luna were beyond happy to know that I'd be there.. So on Friday I went back to the place I was interviewed on. My advantage was that I actually had a camera of my own. They made me a press card and told me what I needed to do and when the car was going to fetch me tomorrow with the injured guy to look at what I was doing.I got ready and actually looked forward into having something to do so that I won't think about this Sunday.. the date that took my parents from me. . "Are you ready?" The guy that was babysitting me asked and I nodded, "yeah.. just a bit nervous.." He laughed and handed me my backpack with his other hand, "here.. I love your camera by th
