Insert 10

Life is so unpredictable, not so long ago I was the happiest girl on earth and now, now I feel nothing but sorrow. I am heart broken, something I’ve never felt before and from what I’ve heard, heartbreaks are the worst. The siren went off and I really didn’t feel like going back to class, I just wanted to sit here with Sands comforting me while I cry me a river. Sands got up and he helped me get up as well. I stood in front of him and he pulled me in for a hug and whispered in my ear… Sands:” Are you sure you're going to be okay?” I nodded, I tried to say something but my voice failed me. I was really in pain, my friends betrayed me and it was hard to accept that they did this to me. I had really invested in our friendship. In that moment I remember my mom’s wise words “Friends will never get you anywhere in life, stop investing some much time in them.” Sands:” Let’s get to class.” He pulled away from the hug and looked at me. Me:” Can we not?” my voice was faint. Sands:” Want to skip school? We can go to my house…?” Me:” I think that could work.” We walked hand-in-hand and I was miles away, I know that he must really have tons of questions but right now I was in no condition to say anything. I just wanted to sleep my problems away. We got to his car (He drives a Camaro SS the 2015 model), I didn’t even know that he had a car. He opened the door for me and went to his side and drove off. The was silence in the car and I just focused on the road, he took a few glances at me and I could tell that he really wanted to say something but I am glad that he respected the fact that I didn’t want to have small talk. Sands:” We are here…” I looked out the window, and I was blown away. The driveway to the house was a street on its own and the house, I don’t even know where to start. Guy lives in a mansion. He came to open the door for me and helped me get off the car. Me:” Your house is beautiful…” Sands:” Well it’s not my house but thank you.” He winked at me and led the way inside. Walking into that house I was blown away, the furniture, the high ceilings, chandeliers, and the works. Man I could see myself permanently residing in this house. I couldn’t even hide the fact that I was stupefied. This was indeed a beautiful house. Sands:” You’ll see more of it as time goes by but for now we need to get you something to eat.” Me:” Yes, of course... sorry I got carried away there for a second.” I shyly looked away. Sands:” So what do you want to eat? We have everything?” Me:” I’d rather not, I’m not hungry as yet but I’ll let you know once I am.” Sands:” What do you want to do then? Watch TV perhaps?” Me:” Can we just skip to the part where we go to your bedroom? Sands:” Hau Zee!!! Already? I didn’t think we were at that stage yet?” He jokingly bumped my shoulder. Me:” Uhm… No… That’s not what I meant. Woo… No, I just want to take a nap, my head is pounding.” I laughed at the thought of me and him going all the way. Sands:” Phew! You had me there for a second…” Me:” What’s that supposed to mean?” Sands:” Nothing… Follow me.” We walked up to his room, a very spacious room he had. He had everything in that room from a 55” Curve TV mounted on the wall to your consoles to everything an average guy dreams of having in their room. And the bed, oh my goodness that bed… King size bed with duck feathers stuffed bedding, everything was just beautiful nje. Sands:” You can sleep on the bed, don’t be scared I won’t bite.” Me:” Who said I’m scared, I agreed to come here didn’t I?” I gave him the look. Sands:” Of course you did. I’ll go take a quick shower while you nap.” He disappeared into the bathroom and I just threw myself on the bed and drifted off to sleep.

Sands: After taking a quick shower I went to the bedroom to get dressed, once I was done I went over to my bed and I admired the beauty that was sleeping on my very sheets. Zee is so beautiful, it really hurt me to see her cry like she did earlier today and the fact that I am the reason why she was crying, I need to tell her the truth or else I might risk losing her forever. How do I even begin to tell her that I am the one who sent her that text about Busi and Amo? You know after I saw her yesterday walking hand-in-hand with Amo I thought I had no chance in hell seeing that she's already with someone but I hit the jackpot when I found out she’s friends with Busi, that was my way in. I knew the risk I was taking by sending that text but given the chance, I would do it again in a heartbeat! * * * Zee:” I wonder what is it that you’re thinking about?” I glared at him and he looked at me. Zee:” You know, I’ve been up for like 5 minutes and not once did you look my way.” Sands:” Sorry, I’m just lost in my thoughts. That was a power nap?” Zee:” Eish its kind of hard to sleep during the day, I don’t do it that often.” Sands:” You don’t say? You must be a busy bee then.” He walked up to me and sat next to me. He lifted my head and looked straight into my eyes, he leaned in for a kiss and I jumped off the bed and put on my school shoes and blazer… Zee:” I think it’s time I went home, I’ll explain to my mom why I am home early.” I looked down and fiddled with my fingers.” Sands:” I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to scare you. I thought…” Zee:” You thought wrong!!! Take me home” I shouted at him and stormed out the room.

Zee: I rushed down the stairs so quickly, what was I thinking coming to a guy’s house and expecting it to be an innocent thing? Did he really think that I came here to make out with him? How could he think so little of me? Tears started flowing from my eyes, how could I be so stupid? Sands:” Zee please stop, I didn’t mean to make you uncomfortable.” He ran up from behind and held me by the waist. Sands:” Look I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have done that.” He turned me around so I could face him, he still had his hands on my waist. Me:” Yes you shouldn’t have.” I looked down. Sands:” I’m sorry okay, I’ll take you home.” Me:” Thanks.” I walked out the door while he followed. He opened the car door for me and went to his side and drove off. I directed him to my house and when we got there, as I was about to get off he held my hand and said… Sands:” I’m not that guy and I’ll never take advantage of you. What happened was an honest mistake, man instincts took over me. I’m really sorry.” I looked at him with tears in my eyes and got off. I was not about that life. He speedily drove off.
