And it began...

Too loud to be happy,

Too broke to be sad

Life's a such a twisted roller coaster

That it's gladly a mess.

Too honest to be true

Too dark to be a lie

Yeah, this hell-hole

Is a well-planned tie.

It’s the best day of my life today…I’ve never been this happy before!

I’ve loved him for 3 years now… or was it just infatuation? I don’t know! But my wait was finally over when he offered the information willingly that he liked me too…

I’m on cloud nineeeee…. I want to scream, I want to dance, I want to singggg! I want to flyyyyy! Above all, I want to be in his arms right now and kiss the life out of him.

"Yeyyyy!" I squealed in excitement.

I don't remember the last time I had been this excited for anything in my life. This has to be it! This has to be my happily ever after. My fairytale, me being the princess and him being my prince charming...No! My handsome Prince Charming! God, I am definitely falling for him.

“And I’d walk a million miles just to see you smile til’ the day I die…” I sang non-stop, because I was actually high on life!

“What’s up with you, Cyra?” my mother shouted from downstairs.

“Opps! Too loud Cici!” I said to myself.

“Sorry, mom!” I shouted back, rather guiltily but I’m happyyy!

I gotta tell someone about this, but who should I? He insisted on anonymity, but why? It’s not like we are committing some crime by dating. Whatever! I don't care anymore. I'm just happy by the fact that he's finally mine. Just mine!

I don't need to be insecure anymore. I hope not! Those bitches are gonna be so so so jealous when they find out that's he's exclusively mine.

I started jumping at this thought.

But again, ANONYMITY!

God, I should have bargained on this rule.

Yeah, we have rules...he insisted, I obliged.

My thoughts were interrupted by the phone ringing…

I checked the id…it was Aaisha, my best friend! We’ve been friends for 3 years now. Yeah, the same 3 years! Long story short, she liked him too at that time and our similar thoughts were the reason we are now together. But she’s gotten over her crush long ago, ‘leaving him exclusively for me’, her words not mine and we’ve been sisters since then. Rest is history!

Nice timing girl!

“Hellooooooo,” I sang after receiving the call.

“I’ve some bad news!” she replied, sounding worried. She's never been the one to worry or panic. The panic in her voice was all it took to bring me back on my feet. Something's got to be wrong, like terribly wrong!!!

“What happened?” all my senses were now on alert.

Her next words brought my world crashing down at my feet…
