All Maqhawe knows are the walls she grew up trapped in and the tight narrow path she is expected to walk. She missteps when she starts feeling something towards another girl, these feelings confuse her, mess with her head until she gives in. She tries to connect her two worlds together, but  does she stand a chance?

Holier Than Thou

Get out Lily, out right now why they're still asleep. 


I scramble to my feet. Where am I? This looks like my old room. But I don't stay with my parents anymore do I? Which year is it. Did I finally make it to college or it's not time yet? 


Leave Qhawe. You will remember soon, leave the house I will tell you where to go. 


There's someone called Tsi but I can't explain now. Leave. 


Why is my mind blank. I look around the room, the sheets are stained with a lot of blood, there is a a huge stain where I was sleeping. I don't think I have time to think of whose blood that is. Must be Daffodil's she is the one who is clumsy enough to get into all sorts of trouble. There is an old smell in this room, of pain and cigarrettes. Then something that relates to loneliness, but I can't be lonely with Daffodil around.
