My life has been on a roller coaster ride ever since he stepped in.
Kayden Stire Den, the heart-throb of the entire school was my only knight except for the fact that his shining armor was more of a vague plastic then metal.
Aaisha’s phone call brought my life crashing down altogether.
Flashback…
“Cici,” her tone was an alarmed one, “where were you, yesterday?”
“Why? What happened?” I asked slowly.
“Just answer my question first,” now she sounded angry.
“I was out at the new club on street 55, but why?”
“And who were you with?”
Sweat started dripping off my forehead. What should I do? Should I tell her that I was with Kayden? She’ll flip out! Oh no!! What should I do? I can’t lie, she’ll figure out.
“Cyra, I know where were you yesterday, with whom you were and what happened between you two. I just want to hear it from you. There’s no need to think of a lie,” her voice sounded so clipped.
“IwaswithKaydenonadate,” I said in a monologue.
“Whattt?”
I took a deep breath to calm myself.
“I was with Kayden on a date,” this time, I said slowly.
“And…” she trailed.
“And, what?”
“What happened on that date?” still, no enthusiasm. She was now sounding distant.
“Okay, just tell me what the matter is. There’s no need to be so annoyed,” I snapped.
“I am not annoyed Cyra, I am furious,” she started shouting, “The **** do you know that there’s a video going viral of you two making out.”
The phone slipped off my hand and crashed with a loud bang. I’m sure that it didn’t survive the impact.
There’s no way possible that someone would have seen us. We were in a secluded spot dammit.
Tears started seeking their way out. What will I do? What will I tell Kayden? He will surely break off with me after seeing this. No, no, he can’t do this. He won’t do this. But, who the hell did record that video? I’m so sure that no one was around. I have to find out, but before that I need to convince him that this wasn’t me. Will he believe me? There’s only one way to find out…
Without thinking much, I wiped my tears with the back of my hand, grabbed my car keys and headed downstairs.
“Mom, I’m going out,” I shouted while climbing down the stairs.
“Where are you going at this hour?” she came running from the kitchen.
“Aaisha and I have a project to work on,” was the quickest lie that formed in my head.
Without giving her a chance to respond, I ran out.
My life was taking a drastic turn in just a matter of a few hours. Yesterday morning, when we officially started dating, I was on cloud nine. We decided that this calls on for a celebration, actually I decided. We met at Harry’s around 8.
I was excited to meet him officially as my boyfriend. Last thing I remember was kissing him which felt damn good, cause I was too drunk to realize anything else.
After 15 minutes of self-loathing and cursing every negative thought in my mind, I reached at his place only to find out…
There’s still hope!
I rushed out on my car, once parked. His house was a typical two storey bungalow, with a porch that had two stairs which led to the front door. I ran towards the front door, trying to keep my trembling self steady enough. He always kept spare keys of his house beneath the herbal plant which was potted just outside the door. I lifted the pot enough to pick the keys and started rummaging through them to find the correct one through.
