I don't know who I am anymore….help me discover myself

As Malia sat on her bed she kept replaying what her Dad said on the phone,her tears rolled down her cheeks.

She laid down to sleep,and she continued crying heavily.

My whole life has been a lie

Why did they lie to me?

Who am I?

Malia's thoughts were interrupted by someone at the door.

'Knock! Knock! knock'

"Are you okay my love?"Leah said as she opened the door gently.

Malia quickly wiped her tears and sat upright,"hey Mom what's up?"

Leah sat next to her and put her hand on her shoulder,"what happened between you and Alex,why were you two arguing?"

"It's nothing Mom, I just wanted to talk to a friend then Alex interrupted but it's cool now."

"Okay but you seemed really frustrated. Is the guy special to you?"

"Uhm not really he's just a friend Mom!"she explained.

"Honestly I feel he's more than that,be honest with me!"

"Okay….he told me that I'm special that's all and I wanted to ask him further questions but Alex cut me off!"Malia said after heavily sighing.

"Oh and do you like him?"

"Not at all!"

"Okay we'll talk about this matter later,I hope you know that your Dad's annual ball is approaching!"

Malia was half to pouring all her sorrow at that moment when Leah said 'dad'.

"Yes I do though where is the venue this year?and I can vividly recall that I didn't attend last year because of my sickness"

"This year's venue is in New York City,and this year it's on you and Alex's birthday!"she exclaimed.

After Leah said this Malia thought...

Is Alex my twin?

Are we even related ?

I'll have to conduct a DNA test!

"Malia!"

"Yes Mom!"Malia said after spacing out for two minutes.

"Sorry mom I kinda spaced out as usual!"

"No problem,so this year's ball is going to be special!"

Malia glanced at her and gave her an assuring fake grin and hugged her Goodnight.

Early the next morning, Malia woke up early and prepared herself for school.

As she was taking her breakfast George also joined her at the dining table.

"Good Morning feisty,how's the morning?"

"Good Morning to you too Dad,"Malia said while looking directly in his eyes.

"You look splendid today ,are you going out with a friend?"George sneered but Malia kept her glare at him.

She wore a black crop top labeled Nike,a pair of blue shots that didn't display her thighs and black Air Jordan.

"I'm not going anywhere today and thank you for the compliment!"she snapped and left for the car and George remained alone.

At school Malia went to her locker,her locker was next to Noah's so the two had a chance to talk things out after Tristan ruined they're 'date'.

"Uhm hey Malia,can we talk?"

"Yes, what's up?"

"I'm sorry for Tristan's behavior can we continue what we started?"he said sheepishly and this made Malia kinda heated up already than before.

"Okay can we talk later? I'm in a rush!"

Noah looked disappointed and nodded his head to depict yes of course.

As the classes went by Malia and Tristan didn't cross paths because he bunked his morning classes.

"Hey Malia, you look stressed what happened?"Jade said and Malia shrugged as she opened the door to her locker.

"Nothing is wrong Jade and how are you?"

"I'm good,do you have an invitation to the party in the evening?"

Malia looked confused,"the look on your face says it all,I bet you didn't get one!"Jade exclaimed and Malia rolled her eyes.

"You'll go with me!"

"No thanks Jade I'm not the party girl type!"

"Please come on,even Tristan will be there I bet you miss him Alot since he didn't report for classes earlier."

Malia snapped at her and sent her a death glare.

"Ouch offense taken,I'm not missing that guy okay!"she exclaimed and tried to walk away but Jade stopped her.

"Look Malia I'm your friend maybe even the only true friend you have here,so please forget about your principles and values for once and enjoy your existence!"

Malia looked blank and gloomy as she couldn't hold her tears in anymore,she cried my eyes out and fell to the ground on her knees.

"Malia is everything ok?"

"I'm crying and you're asking if everything is okay seriously!"she yelled while wiping her tear drops.

"Sorry but just explain what happened!"

"I'll tell you everything…..!"

And she ended her explanation of what happened yesternight.

"Ouch that's devastating I don't know what to say honestly speaking!"Jade said as she tightened her grip on my Malia.

Malia stood up and Jade did the same,"so you're going to the party right?so that you can enlighten yourself and forget about all this for the meantime!"Jade declared and dragged Malia outside the school campus.

"Where are we going now?"Malia said in between breathes as she was trying to keep up with jade's pace.

"Are you seriously asking me that? We are going my house so that we can prepare for the party!"

"What aren't we supposed to be in class right now?"

"Nope our classes for today are done, don't worry you're not breaking the school laws!"

"Okay let's hurry up!" And the two girls continued running until they reached Jade's crib.

At Mason's residence all the guys from school are present and other strangers.

His gang members were helping him set up for the party which was scheduled for 6pm and so they had more time to relax after that. Mason,Noah, Tristan, Jayden and Mason's brother were seated on the couch with a table with liquor in front of them.

"Guys so when are we going to hit on some of our classmates?"Mason questioned and all the guys chuckled.

"Hell no dude all the girls in are class are lame!"Tristan exclaimed.

"Wait aren't you in an entanglement with Chloe?"Jayden smirked and all the guys laughed at Tristan.

"C'mon guys we aren't even serious!"he said sheepishly while sipping on his beer.

"But honestly I like Malia!"Noah said and Tristan sent shot him death glares.

"Oh wow somebody's in love hurray!"Will exclaimed as he joined the guys.

"What up my man?"Mason said as he fist bumped Will.

"Well you know the drill I just had to finish up with something!"Will said while Noah handed him a beer."so what's the topic?"he continued to say.

"Our man here likes the newbie!"Jayden said while holding Noah's collar roughly.

"Well she's a nice girl, she's beautiful, interdependent, intelligent etc!"Mason said.

"C'mon Tristan whats your say in this?you've kissed her after all!"Will added and Tristan immediately smirked.

"She's cool!"

"What!"the guys said in unison.

"Guys c'mon she's cool so let's talk about something else!"Tristan said.

"Nope we want to finish this ,so Noah are you going to make a move?"Mason said.

"I'm scared bro moreover dad told me not to associate with anyone from that school because they're rivals mostly!"

The guys nodded their heads in unison.

"Well I guess you should just fuck her and leave since we're not allowed to fall in love!"Mason said. Noah looked disappointed and sad upon hearing that.

"Bro we can make arrangements for you tonight if she's coming!"Jayden added.

"She was invited??"Tristan yelled.

"Of course she was she's our classmate remember?"Will said sarcastically which made Tristan frown.
