Fear, panic, anxieties, stress are inevitable in one's life. Sometimes, it takes courage and determination to deal with life's problems. Even with these, certain feelings and emotions can start seeping in and make you want to give up.
Who knew Andrew was facing a lot. Not only did he end up being the one behind his mother's death, but he also had to deal with insecurities and a guilty conscience. Not to mention the blooming feelings toward the same sex, the one deemed as forbidden, and an abomination in his eyes.
Who said teenagers do not have problems? They do actually. They need help too. Andrew felt it when Caleb, does not value the words, attention, and care he had shown to him. Truly speaking, the one with the big smile might be the one suffering the most.....
The ray of dim light from the window side shone as Andrew opened his eyes slightly, as he took notice of his environment.The hospital bed was rather soft compared to h
Andrew rested on his bed, as he felt a throbbing headache on his head. He hissed, as he wished he could just make the pain disappear. 'It just indicates that he needed to use his drugs as soon as possible.As much as Andrew hated using drugs, this pain only makes him humble, as he tried to stand up, only for the door to be opened revealing his stepdad."You are awake. Here, take some bread and tea. I made it recently " he sat on his bed, as he stretched his hands forward for Andrew to take.Andrew frowned slightly, cursing inwardly. If only he felt less headache, he would have prepared his food by himself."And how am I sure you did not poison it," Andrew sneered, only for the pain to hit him deeper.Taking a spoon, Mr. Ryan took a spoonful of the tea, along with a piece of bread."Since you have rejected all the food I have made this past two days, will you at least accept this to use your drugs? You are in pain," Andrew for the first
The silence continued as the two stared at each other. In few seconds, Mr. Ryan gulped down another cup of alcoholic wine. He gasped slightly as he darted his elbow on his face."Your mum? Who was she in my life? Well, she meant nothing. Good riddance to her. You are the only one I care about now," Andrew felt as if a sharp knife was dived into his heart. His jaw dropped, as tears clouded his eyes. His throat was dry as he closed his eyes, inhaling deeply.' Now is not the time to cry,' he told himself as he met his stepdad's gaze again."You know your mum was a Crime detective, one that doesn't mind her own business. She was the reason for causing deep pain for me. She killed my elder brother, the only family I had. He killed him," he enunciated the last part as he let out-breath from his mouth as he poured another cup of the wine."My elder brother was one of those gangs that have left the part of the UK agitated slightly. She killed him, durin
The beep sound from Andrew's watch jolted him out of his thoughts. He sighed, as his body trembled slightly with vibration. He felt tense for a while, as he realized it was just an imagination.He breathe out gently as he turned to see his stepdad sleeping soundly, his snores gentle, and not disturbing either.He stared at him for a while, as memories of his words came knocking again. He still finds it difficult to comprehend that a man like him could not even control his feelings. He, Andrew feels trapped, but not for long. He still has to figure out a way and make him pay for what he did, in the right way of course.He could still remember how his mother would often tell him that 'Vengeance belongs to God. Forgiveness should be what we should aim at doing because God largely forgives our sins,He felt stuck with guilt for even imagining of killing him. It was true in one sense that he deserved to be punished especially for framing him into
Words alone could not describe the fear, outrage, anxiety, and trauma arising from Andrew's heart. His stepdad's words before leaving only gave him a crazy feeling. It makes him feel tenser than ever.There is no doubt that he might find a way out of the prison. And if that happens, he would keep looking for him. It seems as if one problem is down, another one is up."We would like to stay here with you this night. We can catch up together. Isn't that fun?", Joy commented.The four of them are now in the sitting room. They had watched how the cops took Mr. Ryan away and Kevin monitored them. According to Kevin, he might be charged to court in the next five days."Sure. I hope you do not mind Andrew," Rachael butt in as Andrew put on a fake smile."Sure. No problem. It will be relieving to have you around. After today, I want to leave this house. It would only remind me of what I have gone through. I think I will buy a room self-containe
Life can be unpredictable, uncertain, and filled with mysteries, that take time to unfold.What seems happy from the outside, might turn out to be bitter on the inside. But one thing is for sure, the struggles, pain, suffering can either make or mar one. It is only left to do or choose which one will pay.Everything seems so clouded in Kevin's mind. He felt his hands slippery, as the one whom he loves leaving and urging him to leave her."I don't want to be with you again. Leave me, just leave me." Tears only slipped down his face as he let go.He slumped on the ground as he cried profusely. ' This is not happening', he thought......Kevin almost jumped out of the bed as he realized he just had a dream. He noticed the time on the clock as he realized he was late for school as it hit 10 am. It makes It weirder for him as he was an early morning person, and would wake up easily by 4 am, no matter how drowsy he was.He groaned a
Every plan they say always begins with a step. And the moment you realize that the one who means a lot to you was not exactly the kind of person you pictured.Only the last statement on the sheet of paper drew Kelvin to a lot of confusion. It was a weird one because it was the least Kevin expected especially for someone who has raised him for the past eighteen years of his life.He stared blankly at his car window. He felt lost and was at the point of giving up, but he couldn't. He still has to find a way to help his father out of prison. He still believed his supposed mum was the one behind the scene."Mrs. Arianna, you will pay for this," he swore as he stared back at the letter.Dear Kevin,I know you will be the one to get this letter since it has always been your daily routine to come to my room every morning. I do hope you are fine.You might probably be wondering what has been going on. Just for you to be aware that I have t
Life is like a circle of happiness, sadness, hard times, and good times. If you are going through hard times, have faith that good times are on the way- Via.The group no doubt were able to realize that their problems will come and go. Rather than feeling sorry for themselves, they believed in themselves instead.There was no misgiving that good friends will always be the best kind of support you will ever need in life. Kevin's face continued to grow despite the challenges he encountered a day ago.He allowed himself to smile, freeing his mind of all the worries that might attempt to make him feel down. His friends being around him felt like resting on a support system. Not to talk of the most important being who gave him the peace that surpasses all understanding, Almighty God."Joy, that is crazy. You should have simply left the place, instead of getting into detention," Andrew stated, as they were discussing Joy's detention that happened the
It is often said that no matter how you hide something, it will one way or the other be exposed, even if it will be slightly.It can be said that Joy probably made the wrong decision by volunteering to be with Andrew, to help him with moving. It was more like a stance to increase the magnetic strength of her feelings.She helped with moving his stuff to his new apartment. For the first time, Joy complemented Andrew for his nice taste.The apartment had a small sitting room alongside two bedrooms, toilet and bathroom as one, alongside a well-furnished kitchen. The blue imprint on the sides of the living room even made it more beautiful, coupled with the simple furnishings in the mini house."Thinking about something?" Joy almost screamed, as her heartbeat fast at the sudden voice of Andrew behind her. It almost scared the shit out of her, as she tried to calm down."Well, let me just say I love your taste in the furnishings of this house. Be
