I glanced nervously at the Mercedes parked in front of the house. It's not every day you get to lie to your granny face and leave with an unknown person.But today I'm leaving home to go live with a total stranger.In my opinion, granny would disown me as her granddaughter, she'd tell me in her own words, "None of the Parkers bring shame to their family," so here I am, clutching my box handle, my excited friend who doesn't know the truth of what's going on and my granny who for some reason seems to know more than she's letting me know escorted me to the car.Duncan stepped out of the car and flashed granny a fake smile. He too looked pretty nervous and I could see that he was avoiding granny's eyes.Finally, we bade her goodbye and the car pulled out of the house and drove towards the Lowell apartment.I couldn't help but feel scared and excited at the same time. Duncan kept quiet when I began to brief a shocked Susie."Why didn't he choose me?" She whined shamelessly, "I will kill to

I ran out of my room quickly and saw Susie in the sitting room with Brenda having another show-off? This was becoming way too much and annoying, I thought as I raced towards them."What is going on here?" I asked once I had successfully raced down through the stairs."Nothing, we're just having fun," Susie replied grinning mischievously.I saw how Brenda narrowed her eyes at her, "Fun?"Yeah, it doesn't look like they were having fun from the scream I heard from my room."What did you do, Susie?" I asked her in a tight voice.She rolled her eyes at me, "Nothing?"Brenda gave an exasperated sigh, "Your friend thought it was funny to put a dead cockroach in my shoes!"I glared at Susie as she chuckled but kept a straight face the moment she caught my eye."I'm so sorry that she put in a dead cockroach, Mrs. Lowell." I would have preferred a live one but I kept quiet.She huffed angrily and walked off while I dragged Susie into my room."Why did you do that?" I glared at her.She burst i

"This sucks!"I glared at Susie as she complained of the...er...I've lost count of the number of times she mumbled about this not being fair. The fact that she got us both locked up in the house."Don't blame me, I was only having fun!!" She cried.I glared at her again, unwilling to speak to her. Her idea of fun was sinking in a bathtub or pretending to drown just to get my attention?"Hailey? I'm sorry!" I sighed and ran a hand across my hair. I could already picture the newspaper's headline about what Susie did today.Zach had been so furious but he didn't show it instead he had steered the media away and gave Susie a death glare.Xavier had stayed behind with his mom, Brenda and after calling us lowlife tramps seeking attention, they had locked us in. I had no idea how they dealt with the media from there.I also have no idea how I should deal with Xavier especially after he just insulted me to my face. I couldn't believe I had reduced myself so low that I was doing this.I hated

Silent night, holy night, all was calm now all is wild, my version of this Christmas Carol.Like I can literally tell you, you are my witness, you saw how I tried my best, you saw how much I ignored her. It wasn't my fault. Besides, the gown must have cost thousands! Well it's not like it got stained. my hair just suffered the damage. But I think it is not going to show. But oh well I have, I am currently accomplishing my mission. But to say, I would have really made the best werewolf, the way I plunged at her when she dropped the glass was wonderful.I made sure I aimed for her hair. Xavier had spent so much time on these beautiful curls on my head and she dared to pour some disgusting alcoholic beverages on my beautiful curls?!!Let me explain to you. I was currently pulling her hair like a crazy person. I managed to get hold of a huge piece of her hair before I felt Xavier's manly arm pull me away from her with a huge church of hair in her hands.She managed to stand back on her

Surprises, jump scares, and horror movies, I hated because they always caught me unexpectedly. I try my best to avoid them in all means possible. Susie had been my best friend since childhood and will always be my best friend. She was aware of everything I hated and everything I loved. I didn't understand why she would legit just do this to me. She knows very well I have a very weak heart. She was there all along. Susie sat on the bed with a pretty crappy smile. At this moment my heart was beating like a drum, the adrenaline that pumped through my vein was enough for me to run from Chicago to New York. "Why would you do that?!" I questioned before I threw my bag at her."Life is short, enjoy it to the fullest!" She said with the sweetest smile I had ever since in my life."I could choke you to death!" I yelled at her as I approached her. The woman in front of me brought out the worst in me. She was like a bittersweet medicine, she is toxic and adorable, lovely and dark at the sa
