Chapter 14

"Omg! I didn't know you've passed through all this" I said while I hugged her tightly.

~~~~~

"So I guess you also have a story to tell," she asked and smiled brightly like as if she just released a weight on her chesty.

"Well yes I do it a long story"

"Tell me I promise not to judge you"

"My story is kinda familiar with yours too. Well, I lost my dad on my 15th birthday. My dad is a well-known pilot popularly known as Jackson Jace" I said while I got interrupted by Kate

"Oh my God I know that man, I heard it in the news. He died in a plane crash in Chicago" she said sadly.

"Yes, you are right, on that horrible day I wasn't myself. I ran out of the house immediately I head the news from my mum, I was sad and was in so much pain. A man came to me from nowhere, I guess he was drunk. He started harassing me sexually and I was raped that night.

I lost my Vcard to that bastard, till now I don't know who he was. I went home the next day but my mum started acting strangely. She became different to me. Her consumption of alcohol and Nicotine had complete control over her body so at times it was as if I wasn't looking at my mother but a monster. Since then I knew I had an onerous responsibility. Our daily conversation would result in physical abuse. I really tried with her but her words always ignite my anger.

My anger issues always stood in the way of my respect causing me to retaliate. The school was where most of my joy was derived from. Since writing and listening to my teacher was the definition of fun. I never had a friend of my own cause I felt insecure.

My mum spends most of the money that was willed to her upon her husband's death lavishly. I took matters in my hands by seeking job opportunity but all was to no avail due to my tender age. I was only sixteen. And during that time I found out my boyfriend was cheating on me one week after that time. I went to visit my boyfriend cause I was worried about him. His name is Dylan" I got interrupted again.

"Dylan?"

"Do you know him?"

"That name sounds familiar. But what happened to him?"

"Well, when I got to his house. I knocked but no one answered so I decided to open it and it wasn't locked either. I went directly to his room. And when I got to the door of his room. I heard a girl moaning and all. So I left without saying a single word to him" I said with a throaty laugh trying to hide my tears.

"Omg! am sorry about that. Why didn't you confront him?" She asked

"Cause I couldn't stand watching him cheat on me with another girl on his bed," I said with disappointment.

"Am really sorry about that?" she said

But deep down I could sense something but I wasn't sure about what it was to be precise.

After a while, we went to sleep because of school. I went to sleep in the visitor's room while she slept in her room.
