"Oh, I'm sorry I did not mean to bump into you." I looked up at them to apologise. I heard no word from him aside from the woman who followed him. She went all crazy on me for no reason and I can't understand why.
"Watch it loser, you want to smack my man to the ground?" She snapped her voice sounding like crushed powder.
"But I said I was sorry, I didn't see him there neither did I see you." I tried to explain without bursting out into unnecessary fights with a stranger.
"How can't you see me, with those things for eyes. I am sure you can't afford such luxury in this hotel that's why you squat with your sugar daddy. I mean look at you, your dress is awful." The strange woman gave me an odd look, her eyes judging me.
That's when I sparked. God sees I tried to be cautioned, kind, polite, and friendly to this rude woman and her companion but the wig stand has gone too far and I don't think I should be quiet anymore. She has gotten me to lose my pat
Holy sweet Jesus! “Do not panic Lorena, the elevator just stopped for a second you are not dead.” I tell myself. Usually it works but today just feels different as I was on the verge of hyperventilating. “Calm down, it’s not like you are trapped.” I tried to keep my cool but my nerves were far from being cool, I just want to burst out. “Hey-” A strange voice called out, I did not need to look back I just jerked my arm forward and elbowed the person from behind. I tried to use my second arm but it was held by the stranger, out of panic I screamed and thrashed around to get away. “Hold.” He gritted. I did not listen and engaged in a battle of dominance. The stranger and I fought wildly (without direct
"Lorena?" "Lorena?" I heard the telephone beep again followed by Miss Ivy’s concerned voice. I am sure my eyes were bloodshot right now because I barely slept a wink last night. The reason for my sleepless night was the strange package sitting at my door, but why am I getting so paranoid it is not like it was a bomb. Just some meaningless word written on a stupid piece of paper, no big deal right? I tried to convince myself but I don’t feel at all convinced. "Lorena are you there? Are you still in bed by this time?" Miss Ivy spoke from the phone speaker. "Yes ma'am." I whispered softly though it sounded like I was talking to myself. "Lorena are you there?" Her voice sounded strong and alert. "Yes…" I cleared my thr
"Holy, sweet Lord, how-" I stared at him in horror. "Surprise right?" He gave me a cocky grin while I was here feeling confused and crazed. ‘Wasn’t he just in that shop?’ "But- but- you- where- how-" "No need to give your brain a hard time, I am sure you remember me.” I just stare at him, shocked, confused, perplexed and freaked out. I mean he was the same guy I tried to avoid minutes ago, how is he here and where is the stocked fish? “Oh I see I got to remind you, well I am the same hot guy wh-" "I know who you are." I grimaced at him trying to keep my distance. "What I don't understand is how you got here so fast, it is not your car is it?"
I stirred in my sleep, twisting and turning, trying to find a comfortable spot to relax on But every toss and turned I took made my nerves agitated for some odd reason and kept me awake all through. My shoulder hurts badly not to talk of the pain coursing through my veins, it is like little needles piercing my skin. I tried to get comfortable but I couldn’t and I was just like ‘screw everything’ you know, then I sat up from the bouncing blankets I laid on. “Why is this bed too soft and bouncing?” I complained. My eyes were still shut and heavy to open, and I also felt drowsy. "You're awake." Someone exclaimed in the background. It took me a couple of minutes to register the source of the voice and my surroundings because my head still felt foggy. "I'm awake?" I asked myself.
“I thought you said you weren't taking me home." I asked him. He told me he won't take me back to the hotel and gave me a stupid condition that I should tell him my name. Well to hell with him and his money. I guess the only reason he decided to take me back was because I was of no use to him and I stubbornly refused to do as he told me ‘I knew one day the words that come out of my mouth will be useful’ I totally made him regret bringing me to his home, and it worked as I planned. "Well I thought about the meaningful things I have in my life and to keep them intact I need to get rid of the futile one." 'why do I get the feeling he was talking about me' he sure knows how to place a sassy come back. "You're
It has been three days since I last saw the creepy dude stalking me, I swear I hadn’t gotten any good sleep since I saw him and Ivy on the other hand did not relieve me from questions about my disappearance. She did warn me there are things I should comply with since I was a foreigner and I came into the country as a student she tried to update me about the rules and policies I needed to take in other to continue staying in the country. As far as I am concerned I am in love with this country and I don’t plan to leave anytime soon, I know that isn’t possible but what if it is possible. Two more days, just two more days and I will be starting my new life here in Paris, attending college for the first time and being myself in a long time. There is this weird joy and a bit of anxiety that is forming in the pit of my stomach about the happenings since Monday. I mean back home I was so excited about leav
Lorena P.O.VI promised myself and made sure I did as much massive shopping than I have done in the past at the superstore of my choice and the most affordable boutique I could find ‘aside the shops and stores Ivy showed me’ ‘a bit of exploring I did’ it was a bit far from the hotel but worth the effort. Shopping here in Paris is a dreamy experience for me and I Will tell anyone to come here to get the best deals.Most of my shopping includes clothes, sandals, toiletries, writing materials, books and food items and materials, also other nonperishable foods and products that I will need while camping at the hostel. While I prepared for my next stop, I saw and felt a weird movement from the corner of my eyes as soon as I left a restaurant. When I checked no one
{Day one: Resuming college}Alright today is the day I am supposed to resume at my university campus, I feel so nervous and shaky I can’t explain how I feel but I think it was more of a weird feeling than butterflies. I mean what if I don’t fit in here? What if coming here was a big mistake? God I should have talked to my pastor about it. I groaned knowing there was not backing out from this because I chose to do it.‘Lorena, it is not everything you got to tell your pastor, look for instance the word sex and baby making.’“I know but don’t you have better examples?” I cringed at how dirty my other self was.‘of course I could bring suggestions like no other, but you know what I mean when I talked about the pastor thing’“I could have agreed with you but I can’t and that is not the reason I am bothered.” I tell Lil ora.
