About the book

Am Angela not a big time writer, i had a

wonderful idea of a story that just thinking about it filled my eyes with tears. It's a story that's really a must

read, having characters in a world

which doesn't follow the laws of karma

who now have to battle with love and

hate and in the process might end up

just hurting themselves.

chapter 1 : THE BEGINING

Dear diary, life has been hard, everyday

feels all the same, my soul is pierced

with despair, a broken heart, a broken

soul, my state is beyond repair. When I

felt like the sun had funny shined on

me that's when darkness covered my

happiness(Drops the diary and looks

through the window and suddenly a

flashback).

A light skinned overweight girl, 4 feet

tall, with braces in her teeth, which

made her look like a geek and a nerd.

she had just recently transferred to

Wilter highschool. As she walked to her

locker she could hear laughter from

almost every corner of the room, she

wondered who they were laughing at, she noticed that people

where staring and pointing at her, the

loudest laughter in room came from

two girls Clara and her best friend

Sandra.

"What an ugly creature, you should

really get plastic surgery" said Clara.

"Alien girl" added Sandra (who was still

filled with laughter)

Out of shame she turn around and ran

to the girl's bathroom and locked

herself there.

Some people did feel bad for the girl,

most of the people who laughed where

Clara's friends.

"What a cruel treatment" Emily

said(thinking aloud)

"That's the type of treatment you get if

your not good enough for her highness".

(mocking tone)

"Am Emily am new here" Emily says has

she stretches her hand towards

Elizabeth.

"Am Elizabeth" Elizabeth stretches her

hands also and shakes Emily.

"if your gonna survive Wilter

highschool try not to get on the bad side

of Clara and her friends, if you do your

going to make highschool a lot harder

for yourself" Elizabeth warns.

"What makes them different from every

one else?"asked Emily

"Some people just feel they are better

than everyone else, and if you can't

meet up to their standards they feel like

your below their feet.. ." Elizabeth

responds.

Suddenly a light skinned guy, with eyes

as blue has the ocean and golden hair

walks into the room with eyes facing his

smart phone, he gets the attention of

everyone in the room, anyone who laid

their eyes on him could say his look was

extra ordinary.

Emily found herself staring at him that

she didn't even realize that Elizabeth

was still talking, she used her eyes to

scan every detail of him. He off's his

phone and raises his head, his eyes

clashes with Emily's eyes, Emily finally

discovered that she was staring this guy

in the eye, and turned to look the

opposite way.

"Wow your finally back from

daydreaming land" Elizabeth says

smiling

"Meeeeee,me,I wasn't daydreaming, I

was just reading the poster beside that

locker" Emily replied stammering.

Elizabeth laughs, showing a sign she

wasn't buying it.

"That's Matthew, his pretty nice, fun,

and actually every girl's dreaming, his

way out of limit, his Clara's guy and you

don't want to compete with her"

Elizabeth warns

ooh u thought I was looking at him no

way, I didn't even notice when he

entered into the room".

Elizabeth raises her eyebrow in a way

that showed her disbelief, Emily just

turned away from Elizabeth's face and

looked directly into her locker, using

the corner of her eye to look at

Matthew, she noticed that he was

talking to Clara, so she just looked away.

Mathew and Clara, parents where

friends this made them grow up

together every school Mathew

attended Clara attended to they were

inseparable. Mathew saw Clara has a

sister but Clara way different about

him, she always felt like he was like

her property.

"Matty!" Clara exclaimed

"Hey Clara" Matthew says

"just hey Clara, your seeing a friend

in a new semester, you couldn't even

ask how have been through out the

holiday, or even say you have missed

me" Clara replied in an annoyed but

sweet tone.

"Clara, during the holiday most of the

time you were at my house, and when

you were not,you called my phone, I

couldn't have missed you" Matthew

says defensively.

"But Matty, you should have still said

you missed me" Clara added in a

Sweet tone without annoyance.

"Hey Matthew"

"Hey, Clara, how have you been, your

looking good" Ronald says out of

nowhere.

"Hey Ronald" Mathew replies

Clara annoyed and disgusted by his

presence responds without even

looking at his face" what are you

trying to imply that I don't normally

look good".

"No not at all, you always look good

obviously" Ronald replies with a

bright smile on his face

Clara still doesn't look at his face,

wishing he will just disappear, she

wished she could tell him how

disgusted she felt about his presence

but she had to hold herself because

Ronald was Matthew best friend.

The bell rings, everyone closes their

locker and heads for class.

Matthew picks his books and heads

for the classroom.

"Wow, It's already time for class"

Ronald says to Clara

Clara realizing that Matthew had

already walked off, turned her head to

Ronald and gave him a deadly look

and walked out on him.

"If looks could kill this certainly will"

Ronald says to himself

Emily already picked a seat close to

the window, she loved the filling of

the natural breeze more than the

breeze from air conditioning, she had

heard the bell ring so she was

preparing for the class, she wished

Elizabeth was in class with her

because she felt like an alien in the

class not knowing anybody. Emily

bows her head, trying not to be

noticed. Suddenly a tall figure was in

front of her, she raised her head to see

it was the boy who she had seen

earlier.

"Hey, your sitting in my side of the

class" Matthew says

Emily staring at him clueless of what

to say, "ain't u going to say anything" a

voice in Emily head says. Emily

attempts to speak but notice she just

went dumb and was shaken all of a

sudden, this was on like her, she had

had krushes in her past, but she never

looked this stupid in front of a guy.

She finally gains her voice and she

gets up and tells him "sorry I didn't

know".

Matthew pulls the chair beside Emily

and says "you can seat there didn't

really feel like seating there anyway".

Emily gently sat down not looking left

to the direction Matthew was seating,

thinking of why Matthew confronted

her if he really didn't want the seat, or

did he want it but became annoyed by

my one minute silence before my

reply, what a bad first impression. Clara comes into the class and sees a guy named Louis had occupied the seat beside Matthew. Clara walks up to him and asked him to get off the seat but he protest against it so she

goes for the seat beside Sandra.

Everyone shocked by the fact that

Clara just left and took another seat.

Mrs Lisa welcomes everyone she was

pleased to see her student in a new

semester, so she starts the topic for

the day.

Emily tries to pay has much attention

to the class has she can. But can not

help but be distracted by Mathew,

who kept on flickering his pen with

his fingers, suddenly a pen drops in

the middle of Emily, Emily looks at the

pen and noticed it was hers. It was so

close to Matthew's leg. Emily

wondered if she should stretch and

take the pen, or ask him to help her

pick it. Matthew on the other hand

realized her pen had fallen, he

thought she was going to pick it up,

but she didn't so he decided to help

her pick it. At the same time Emily

finally made the decision to pick the

pen, this caused both their heads to

collide. The impact was pretty bad.

Matthew then gave her pen still

touching is head.

"Am sorry, sooooo sorry, I didn't

know your head was there" Emily

says apologetically then rethinks her

choice of words.

"Is there a problem" Mrs Lisa asked

facing Emily and Matthew.

"No problem" Emily responds

Matthias just turned to look at Emily,

and looked back at Mrs Lisa.

Emily could not apprehend, what the

look he gave her meant, was he angry,

was he cool, did I say anything

upsetting it was a look quite difficult

to understand his present mood.

Sandra had been looking at Emily and

Matthew almost throughout the

whole class, she turns to Clara and

says "the new girl is really trying to

get Matthew attention"

That girl needs to be able to identify

what can be taken and what can't be

taken" Clara responds turning her

head to Emily's position looking at her

with a nasty look

The class finally came to an end,

Emily was in a hurry to leave the

classroom she felt she was suffocating

with the taught of embarrassing

herself in front of Matthew, for the

sake of her concentration and her

sanity she wasn't going to seat beside him

ever again.

Louis (searching through his bag

looking for one of his books).

"Have u seen my geography book"

Louis asked Mabel.

"yah, it's in the art room I think"

Mabel replies.

Louis sees his book on top a table.

"How did it get here" he wondered

has he moved forward, he suddenly

slips falling on his back, and got

washed by a bucket of paint staining

both him and his book.

As he walked out, everyone laughed at

him including Sandra and Clara.

Everyone felt that was Clara's pay

back for what had happened in the

class.

Emily sitting in cafeteria, with

Elizabeth. "So how is your first day in

school going" Elizabeth says just to

start a conversation,

"Apart from the fact I embarrassed

myself in front of Matthew quite nice"

Emily says and immediately puts food

in her mouth.

Elizabeth laughs (sounded like

mockery but it wasn't)

"You don't have to get walked up

about embarrassing yourself in front

of a guy, he might not even

remember what happened after

today" Elizabeth says smiling.

Emily starts realizing that Elizabeth

had a hippy attitude, she didn't care

much about what happens, she didn't

really look it though. However having

her around was quite comforting.

Miss Peters (school guidance

counsellor) walked up to Emily "good

to see u have meant Elizabeth already

because u guys will be sharing the

same room, your cool with that

right?"

"Sure" both girls respond

"OK then, if u got any problem don't

hesitate to visit the guidance

counselor office" Miss Peters says as

she walks away.

"You used to sleep alone?" Emily asks

in a surprised tone,

"No had a former roommate, Bianca,

she transferred" Elizabeth replies.

"Oh OK".

It was night time, Emily looked round

the room she was presently sharing

with Elizabeth has she laid on her

bed, she missed her former school

and her friends there, she would have

loved to graduate from high school

with them considering the fact that

this was her last year in high school,

she had to graduate with people she

didn't even know but at least now she

got someone to talk too.

Second day of school

"Matty! Matty! Maaaattttty" Clara

yells,

"Hey Clara" he responds

"Hey, how was wondering if we could

hang out after class" Clara with a cool

smile that makes her eyes pop

"Am kinda busy" trying not to be

deceived by her eyes.

"I have a serious math problem, and I

have know one to teach me" Clara

pleas.

Ronald walks pass them.

"Ronald, hey" Mathew calls,

Hey Mathew, hey Clara" he says has he

walks to them.

"Are busy after classes, Clara needs a

tutor in maths" Mathew asks

"Am free, I will love to tutor you"

Ronald replies.

Clara annoyed at this, she didn't even

really need a tutor, she just wanted to

hang out with Matthew.

"so Clara, Ronald is really good at

maths, so he is a perfect tutor(giving

Clara a smile), I got basketball practice

now, catch u guys later" Mathew says

and walks away

"Nice one, catch u guys later, because

your going for basketball (and laughs)

so what time are we studying" Ronald

says with a smile

Clara not even turning to look at his

face, just walks away.

"After math class then" Ronald yells.

But Clara still walks away.

"Clara! Clara!" Sandra yells has she

runs to Clara.

"Check out this shoe really pretty, it

costs quite a sum but not for you"

Sandra says showing her the pick

from her phone, raises her head and

looks at Clara's face.

"What's wrong" Sandra asks

"Is Matthew, I feel is always trying to

get rid of me, like I offered for us to

hang out, and he set me up with

check out some pretty cool shoes"

Sandra says in a uplifting tone.

"Sure" Clara says and gives a little

smile.

Two weeks passed, Emily now

understood everyone and everything

in Wilter, she now felt less like the

new girl. Emily new the popular kids

Clara, Sandra, Jordan, Matthew,

Annie, and Ronald who wasn't all that

relevant his reputation was based on

the fact he was Matthew best friend.

Emily knew she was in the average

kid club with Elizabeth who didn't

really care what anyone taught about

her, her life was majorly based on

eating and sleeping and world balance

Emily didn't really get her at times.

"Hey, am going for basketball practice,

coach finally signed me in" Emily says

with a smile.

"Good job, then, try not to break a leg,

or a hand or both okay" Elizabeth says

"Sure, am quite an expert in

basketball, if you need someone to

give you lessons in basketball happy

to help" Emily says not expecting her

to agree, knowing she wasn't into

sports rather preferred art, she just

enjoyed the beauty of creation and

didn't see anything really in sports.

"Anyway see u later" Emily says as she

heads for the basketball court.

Emily walks into the basketball court

and the first says she sees is MatthewW,

she had tried to avoid him. She really

didn't want to risk embarrassing

herself again considering the fact that

she loses control around him. She

looks the other way trying not to look

at his direction.

Coach was busy training for the guys

basketball match, so we just to wait to

watch them play. Most girls were

happy, they could sit and stare at

them and it would like they are just

watching the game.

The game was pretty intense Mathew

and Jordan were on each other's

throat. Emily got bored and kind of

disgusted how the girls admired the

every movement of this guys.

She stood up to leave. Jordan was

going for three pointer, and Matthew

slaps the ball from Jordan, making the

ball the fly out of the court hitting

Emily in the face.

Some people found it funny wishing

they had it on video. While Mathew

and some others rushed to see she

was OK. Mathew attempted to raise

her from the floor but she disagreed,

she knew she couldn't really move but

she didn't want Matthew to carry her,

Matthew then put his hands under

her and raised her ignoring the fact

she told him not to.

Emily found what he did arrogant,

while some girls now wished the ball

had hit them.

Mathew took her to the nurses office

and laid her on one of the beds.

"This really looks bad" the nurse said

looking at the Emily,.examining the

scar on her face, and her leg.

"How does your leg feel" the nurse

says moves her leg.

"Ahaaa!!,it hurts so much"Emily yells

as tears rolls from her eyes, she had

been trying to hold her pain.

Matthew stood in the nurses office

which was different from where

Emily laid felt bad about what

happened to Emily, he really wasn't

thinking, he just wanted to beat

Jordan and not paralyze a girl.

"You haven't gone yet" asked the

nurse surprised he was still there.

"Just wanted to know how she was"

Matthias replies

"She is okay, gave her some

painkillers, but she wouldn't be able

to run, or jump for 3 weeks"

"She is in the basketball team right"

the nurse adds.

Matthew really wasn't sure if she was

but he guessed so.

"I don't know" he replies.

"Anyway if she is,she can't play

basketball for now'" the nurse says.

Emily hears this From the other room,

and her pain increased, the

painkillers where stopping the

physical pain, but couldn't stop the

pain from the fact she wasn't going to

be able to play basketball.

30 minutes passed

Emily didn't want to stay in the clinic

anymore, and she could feel her legs

now, so she just wanted to leave.

"I feel like going, I still got class, and I

really don't feel like staying here any

longer" Emily says standing up from

the bed trying to get her balance.

The nurse hands her the crutches and

says "OK then, for at least a week your

going to need this, but don't think about

running or jumping for at least 3 weeks

even if your able to walk before then,

OK, and has for the bruise on your face

it will leave faster than u know it. Just

make sure u take this medications

(passing them to her).

Emily collects them and says"thanks"

Emily leaps finding the crutches

discomforting. She walks through the

door and sees Matthew outside, every

feeling of admiration changed to anger.

"How are u feeling, sorry about the

accident" Matthew says trying to be sympathetic.

"Wow, am feeling good, really good, am

even leaping for joy" says in a annoyed

tone, as she leaps away from him. Emily

noticing he was trying to move to her,

tried to leap faster in the process she

tripped on the crutches and almost fell

but Matthew catches her before she

could hit the ground.

Emily in Matthew arms didn't feel her

anger anymore, staring into his eyes she

couldn't even feel anything anymore.

"Hey, have you seen Matty" Clara asks

"I guess his still at clinic, Matthew threw

a ball at the new girl, she just fell like a

plank, so he carried her to the nurse".

"He threw a ball.., he carried her..."

Clara says in surprise.

"Emm, not literally, but yah, he carried

her, some girls said it was the most

emotional thing they have ever seen,

they even wished they were the ones hit

with the ball".

"That rat should better not think of

flirting with Matty, or I will take her

back to the hole she came from" in

flaming anger Clara says.
