Another Identity

 

♥Amyla Robert♥ 

 

We arrived home and went straight to my room not waiting for my mom to question me about anything. 

 

"Myla!" She called but I did not respond as I had already locked the door of my room. 

 

I laid in bed and started sobbing bitterly in remembrance of what happened some minutes ago. 

 

I did not want to confront anyone. And almost swore not to forgive my mom for being this blind and heartless towards me. 

 

In my sobs, I finally drifted to sleep with my outing clothes on.

I have been thinking of the possible reasons why that girl will try putting an end to her life.  

 

It has been eating me up for some strange reasons. I was lost the whole time while driving. Stephany must have seen my mood and decided to keep the silence. 

 

Though I know, she will ask what happened and why I was so lost. Like I knew that girl somewhere. 

 

It was so rainy this whole night that, Stephany called her parents telling them she will be sleeping at my place. 

 

When I heard that, I did not question her because I knew, though she said it is because of the rain over the phone, it was not what it is. 

 

She just wants to spend time with me. And secondly, to find out the reasons why I was cut up in such an incident. 

 

I was changing my clothes when Stephany asked 

 

"Do you know that girl?" 

 

"No" I responded shortly already prepared to be interviewed by the Journalist. 

 

"So, what happened?" She asked 

 

"She tried getting herself killed," I said still not looking at her 

 

"Oh! That is an awful thought. I can never find myself in such a situation." She said 

 

"I know right. You have everything you will ever want or ask for. While her, she maybe doesn't have those opportunities or love like you do" I said moving towards the bathroom 

 

"How could you possibly know that. You do not even know where she is from. You don't have to feel so pity for her by the way" she said 

 

"Really! Pity is what you call it?" I said bringing my gaze to her 

 

She crumbled her brows. Giving me an amazing look 

 

"What's wrong with you? She must have been seeking attention from you just like she did in the restaurant" she said 

 

"What are you talking about?" I asked uneven my brows 

 

"Of course you know what I'm talking about. I saw the look she gave you when we were living. And I bet you saw that too." She said and shook my head 

 

"Wherever your mind is drifting to, just block it right away. I'm not going to take any of your naughty and selfish characters tonight" I said turning around to move away 

 

"Of course, I have to be selfish. You are mine. And any common girl giving you looks in my presence, pisses me off. I bet you'll do the same in my shoes" she said, and I stopped 

 

Turning around I said 

 

"Maybe yes. But not so unrealistic like you. This is not about us! It is about that poor girl who has never felt loved by anyone! Just looking at the way her mum rushed out to her. And her how presence made her sob the more is enough evidence she is in the dark. I don't need to know her to understand those little perspectives" I said, and she rolled her eyes 

 

"Yeah. That is why she came just when you had to get back to the restaurant. She kept looking at you through the window. So, don't ask me how she could have known that!" She said 

 

"You're so unbelievable," I said 

 

"Thanks for the compliment" she responded looking away 

 

I just turned around and moved to the bathroom silently. 

 

She wanted me to plead her not to get annoyed with what happened. I guess that does not matter anymore. Because she is already angry with my sudden behavior. 

 

I did not have to turn around to know how mad she is for me to walk away from her like that. 

 

The evening was fresh as the chilly wind rushed through the window to the entire room. 

 

It has been an hour now and Stephany is already asleep. But I cannot get rest. I keep thinking of that young lady.  

 

I felt like, I was so connected to her just at that instance. I have never felt this way about anyone. 

 

Not even Stephany got in trouble that caused me this much pain as I feel right now. 

 

I should get myself distracted with something. 

 

I got up from bed gently. Trying not to wake Stephany up. 

 

I went to my play store and selected a game to get mind off that girl. 

 

On playing, I connected with some of my friends who were still up at that time and we played together. 

 

It worked for a while. Not until I saw a pic that came up of a young girl that looked just like the young girl I saw hours ago. 

 

I paused the game and realized that the image came as a message from one of my friends 

 

I had to pick my phone up and messaged that friend of mine who send the pic. 

 

*Do you know this girl? * I asked 

 

*ohm! Sorry man. It was a mistake. Well, she is from my area. Why ask? * he replied instantly 

 

*Well, I just saw her some hours ago in the restaurant* I replied 

 

*Restaurant!? Strange. She is not a fan of public* he said 

 

*That's what I thought. Though I do not know her. Why do you have her pic on your phone? Is she that close to you? * I asked 

 

*Yes. But her adopted parents are friends with my parents. So, we get to meet once a while* he said 

 

*I see. Does she have issues with them? And where does she school? * I asked  

 

*Not at all. Her parents are fun with her and she is fun with them too. Well, she schools in an expensive school in her area. I bet you know ICOO (International college of Oxford)? * he replied 

 

*Yes, I do know it. She looked more of a depressed person when I met her. Though we did not talk* I said 

 

*What! No! She is lively, open, and fun to be with. She is very social. And most popular at her college* he said, and I crumpled my brows. Very confused. 

 

I thought she was-- I sigh then said  

 

*Thanks man. I just wanted to find out what my instinct felt about her when I saw her pic. Simply curious. With, if you do not mind, I am playing some games here with Jordan and the rest. I do not know if you will mind joining* I said 

 

*Sure! I am a killer for that man! Let me teach all the pro way! * he said and I chuckled 

 

"We'll be looking forward to that! * I responded and he connected to us as we resumed. 

 

At that moment, just the game was in my mind due to the challenge my friends were giving me. Though I kept beating them...
