10pm....
my mom and I had been standing outside
our doorstep for the past 2hours,
wondering who might have kept
expensive gifts at our doorstep.
Everybody in the,neighborhood now
knows Krishna to be the guys ladies.
Suitors are always coming to seek my
hand in marriage at this my tender age of
19.
what is this world turning into????
I smirks and shake my head at the
Wrapped presents.
"Krish, let's wait a little bit" my mom said.l
nodded and sat upright,resting my soft
jaws on my knee cap.
"how long will this continue???
"guys here and there all around me like
flies,with there eyes sending me lustful
gazes.
"mom,it's dark already!
I cautioned. She sighed and pour all the
gifts away.She poured them on the space
beyond our door step,then she took me in.
She locked the doors whilel shut all the
windowS.
We don't even have a single idea of who
kept the gifts there,it had always been on
and on.
"Krish, maintain your worth. I never pray to
see you out there like those girls without
vision,don't copy their foot steps,don't
look up at those niggas,ignore their
whistles because once they get your body,
they will leave you alone for good" my
mom said with a strict face.
"I know..l promise not to forget"
I replied,knowing fully well that we are
gonna see more gifts by the time the day
break.
I took my phone on the low three sweater
couch and walk straight to my averagely
decorated room.
we are not poor neither are we rich.
I got to my bed and opened my window a
little bit.Shatai's window was opened also.
She sawW me from her window and waved.l
waved back and opened my window
widely...
...can you come to my house now?
I wanna share things with you!.
Shantai sent.
I checked time,it was 10:30.
. .my mom..you know she is strict" I
sent.
.. ..then,l will come" she replied.
I watch her insert her phone into her pink
pajamas pocket then she left her veranda.
....just open your window" she sent.
I swallowed into nothing and,opened my
window wider.Shantai appear almost immediately and shucks in thought my
window.
"I gotta show you something about my
high school" she said. I grinned and joined
her on my bed.
"what is it all about??? I asked innocently
and peeped into her laptop.
Shantai is my only close friend who knows
about my secret of dancing and singing.
She is so bent on getting me admitted
into Dice training high but I rejected the
offer.
Dice high is for verrrrrry rich teenagers.
Even if I can afford it,l won't still go. I
prefer the one my mom registered me in.
You and me know that Dice high is a real
hell"
I said, Shantai frowned and did her mouth
in an angry manner.
"what do you Indians see opportunities
as??? Krishna this is a great chance for
you to become a star" shatai said.
"only the almighty can make us stars, not
mere humans" I replied.
"will the almighty come down to help
you?? Shantai asked and showed me
some videos on her laptop.
I watch keenly as the three girls danced
with hot techniques. We read the
comments under it and it was damn
thrilling and encouraging.
"what's the name of the band leader?
I asked Shantai while pointing to the
Sweet looking lady on the laptop screen.
"she is Han Lily,dice high role model and
first runner up dancer" she replied.I
widened my eyes and admired the lady on
the screen.
"you're lucky to attend the same high
school with her" I smiled and read many more comments.
"Han Lily's impacts in Dice high" I browsed
on shabtai's laptop.
The screening headlines that came up
signifies fire.Everyone have many bad
things to say about Han Lily.
life is not a bed of roses. I think Han lily
should learn from my saying because
practicaly everyone that attend Dice High
trainers have nasty things to say about
her.Han Lily makes life miserable for the
middle class masses,she only favour the
people that befit her standards.This is
so bad.If this could be done to the
middle class set,then how will the poor
masses be treated as??????
maybe like trash!!." the commoners that
tried their luck were swept out with a I u
common saying....
"Dice high is for kings and queens
a girl commented.
"it was my best high school as a dancer,l
always daydream to be there, I see myself
there in my sleep but I never knew it was
hell because it only belongs to king and
queens."
a boy rated Han lily 1 out of5 stars.
"is Han lily this rude???
I faced Shantai.
"what do you expect??? she is the only
daughter of dices founder,she always get
whatever she wants and she hates seeing
people who can dance and sing.
The two of you might become a thing if
she finds out about you"
Shantai said and shut down her laptop.
"do you know about double-R???
she asked.
"I don't know" I replied,she smiled.
"Krish,you are a brilliant girl,l just wish you
can leave your dummy high school and
attend mine. I'm very sure you will
become a star overnight because you a better than Han Lily"
Shantai said.
"'sorry,I can't" I replied.
"still stubborn" she said and sneak out of
my window. I bashed my lashes and went
back to bed.
Next day
I woke up as early as possible since l need
to do some laundry work with mom.I
picked my black overalls and tied my hair
in a upper pony tail.
I left my room and packed our laundry
materials.
"you don't need to take anything" she said.
I dropped down what I picked and
followed her out..We both took a cab and
drop at a very beautiful closed estate.
The Gate was signed Dice,everywhere
was just sparkling wealth.
"are we washing cloth in this house?
I asked with surprise.
"yes,they paid already" she replied.
We got to the gate,it was more of the
word magnificent.
The gates slide open by itself,it closed
back.The guards scanned us with a
beeping detector before signalling us to
enter.
I admired everything as we entered the
two storey building mansion.
"mum,do you know this place before? |
asked,surprised with the way she moved
in quickly.
She smiled and opened a particular door.
On one side in the room was a heap of
used clothes while on the opposite side
were lots of laundry machines.
"Krishna,let's start" my mom said.
We started using the machines to wash
the heap of expensive clothes.
We've not even gotten to quarter of it
when a girl of my age entered the section
while chewing gums in a lousy manner.
She had on a skimpy bumbshort with a bra
top.Her hair was dyed gold while her
fingers were painted red.
The anklet she had on her feet was signed
"Royal".
I kept my head low and concentrate on
what I was washing.
was warned not to
speak anything by my mom.
"wash this also!!!
she fling three g-string panties on my
mom's head while she throw two bra on
my face.
"be a little bit nice"I was tempted to talk.
She chewed the gum more lousy. I looked
at her and carried the washing spa mix.
I slipped and the contents emptied on her
body.
The lady flinched back with visible fury in
her eyes.
"sorry, I didn't mean to.."
she shut me up with a glare,then she
brought out her phone and called
securities.
Ilooked at my mom who was signalling
me to go on my kneels.
"am I really in trouble????
"aunty sorry,I didn't know" I said and made
an attempt to touch her gold hair.
Krishna what have you done!!!
Is she wounded by just an ordinary
water??????
