The golden girl

By EbubechiPublished 2 years ago • 2 min read

Oh, finally at home I signed as I walked into the living room only to meet my father there on his regulars, his favorite channel news. “What’s up with dads and news” i thought to myself

Hi dad, good afternoon

My dad turned around to face to me

Hey dear, how are u doing? How was school?

It was fine at least today I answered while heading to my room to bathe and rest. I just needed to rest. After taking my bath I layed down but the thought of today still clouded my mind. First off I made some friends. Luckily I was glad about that but one thing I didn't understand was the stares I got from alexander. Why was he staring at me like that? It was so creepy. Oh, Zarina u think too much just go to sleep already, u have to wake up early tomorrow so sleep i said to myself. Finally I started feeling sleepy and then I dozed off.

The next day I got to school early. I didn't know why, maybe because I have made some friends. I sighted Lucy and Daisy together. I rushed to meet them and they were happy to see me.

Hey Zarina, good morning

Good morning girls I answered Lucy and Daisy

Zarina I have some news for u daisy said

What’s that? I asked

Some big time celebrities will be coming to school today and they will be hosting a competition whereby they get to pick a winner and whoever ends up as the winner will sing with them.

Wow, that’s nice, I said

That’s nice, aren't u happy u don’t sound happy daisy said

Yeah, you don't sound happy aren’t you participating in the competition? Lucy asked

Well I'm not sure I will be participating

Why won’t u is for everyone

Well i will love to but I can’t I just can’t, can we skip this and talk about something else, I pleaded.

Ok, but u have to tell us the reason later, daisy said

Yeah, sure.

The bell rang and we headed to our class, while in class I wasn't really paying attention to the lessons. My mind was fixed on what Daisy had said of the competition being held in our school. Finally the bell rang for break and all the students ran out to meet their friends and to get lunch. But I was still seated in class lost in thought.

Hey Zarina

I could hear someone calling my name. I turned and it was alexander. Why on earth is Alexander calling me? I thought to myself .

Aren’t u going for lunch is break time Alexander said to me. I was stoned that Alexander was talking to me

Can you hear me? Alexander asked as thou talking to a deaf person

Yeah yeah I answered while trying to stand up but my legs decided to betray me at this moment.

As u may know I fell on Alexander by accident and that is when the bell decided to go off.

“Oh, what am I going to do at this moment, please no one should see us like this? I cried in my mind”. But Instead it ended up in a way I didn't expect.
