Chapter 1
We went from enemies to friends to lovers, a crazy stage of our life which to some sound cliche but to us was our own love story.
“Give me one more reason why I don’t have to strangle you right now” I screamed at her face.
“Also give me a reason why your poor mother doesn’t know that her son is an imbecile” She yelled.
“It is on Sanders, you are going to regret messing with me” I screamed at the face of the person who always bring out the worst in me.
“Be a good crybaby and walk away Anderson”She screamed making the whole attention of the people at the parking lot turn towards both of us.
Meet Daniella Sanders, daughter of renowned business man Antonio Sanders. As much as her family and mine were close, I HATE her, she brings out the worst in me and visibly it is vice versa.
I don’t think I have hated anyone the way I hate her. With this much hate, our parents still pretty much think that it is just a phase and we are going to get over it which is never going to happen. Not in this life and definitely not the next one.
I stormed into the house in annoyance, heading towards my room when I was stopped by my mom and elder brother.
“Let me guess, Ella?” Josh my brother asked.
“Why can’t you two stop fighting for once and try to at bond together” Mom said and I scoff.
“Bond? With that spawn of Devil?”I said and she glared at me.
“What did she do?” Mom asked.
“I was being a gentle boy that I am when she literally scratch my car and instead of offering an apology, she has the audacity to be telling to repair her own car” I ranted.
“It is just a car, the scratch can be fixed” Mom said.
“Am not angry about the car but the fact that she really thought that she didn’t make a mistake and should apologize”
“On her behalf, am saying sorry”Mom said and I wave her off while storming into my room.
Sanders will regret messing with me………………………..
I got to school the next day sulking, Dad isn’t around for my birthday again today. I know I sound like a child but he is NEVER around not even when I need him the most.
I parked my car and went over to Brian and Stacy.
“Happy 17th Birthday dude, am not good with those stupid epistles but anyways happy birthday” Brian said and I was about replying when the Spawn of Devil passed by us making a stupid statement again.
“Hey Crybaby, Happy Birthday” She said while throwing me a bag which I easily catch. The bag is probably from one of her elder brothers most likely Dominic.
“It is no longer happy whenever you are around” I said.
“Glad I could be of service to your sadness, I enjoy doing that everyday” She said while walking off.
“How you two haven’t manage to kill each other surpass my imagination” Stacy said.
“Ohhh……We will but not just yet, her mom still needs her” I said while staring at the Devil’s retreating figure.
“Can you promise me that today will go without any screaming or yelling at each other” Brian asked.
“I don’t make promises” I said while walking towards class.
“Make sure to turn in your assignments before Thursday” Our teacher Miss Evans said before finally getting out of the class. FINALLY……………
“Hey Justin, how about we go out for lunch” Hannah my girlfriend said and I nodded.
We got to the Cafeteria and Hannah decided to invite some of her friends over to our table. As much as I love her, her friends are all crazy ranging from Alicia, the School slut to Wendy, the School low class bully.
“Am going to be back, let me get what I want to eat. You need anything?” She asked.
“A burrito is fine” I said while she kisses me before finally leaving to join the queue. I notice Brian and Stacy and call them over to join me. I can’t be the only one alone with Hannah’s friends. They are weird.
“Hey Brian” Alicia said while chewing gum rather loudly.
“Not going to happen” He said and both Stacy and I chuckled. Alicia has been crushing on Brian since forever but Brian isn’t interested and she doesn’t get the memo.
“Hey Crybaby” The Devil said.
“Call me that one more time again in public and you will regret knowing me”I threaten her while Hannah comes over and sit down.
“You should know by now that you threats don’t work on me” She said sassily.
“Leave my boyfriend alone Sanders” Hannah said.
“Who asked for the b***h’s opinion” She said. OK………This b***h is seriously crossing the line.
“Anyways, Daniel said to tell you to meet him at his usual spot”She said and started walking away but not before giving Hannah the middle finger.
This Girl is ready to join her ancestors and why in the world would Daniel send her a message when I literally have a phone.
“I would why God decided that it was a good thing for both of you to know each other”Brian said while watching her walk away.
“I am surprised you two haven’t kill each other yet” Stacy added. Am also surprised.
I get home to see Mom preparing a feast with Josh helping out.
“Welcome home honey, how was School?”
“It was fine” I replied.
“Weird” Josh replied.
“How is that weird?” I asked.
“I was actually expecting you to barge in with an angry look and spitting out how much you hate Ella” Josh said.
“And why will Ella annoy him today of all days?” Mom asked.
“Cause that’s when he was born and she always manage to put him in a more than usual bad mood during any of his special occasions” He clarified.
“She did try to ruin it but I decided to be a bigger person and let it go” I said.
“Enough with Ella,freshen up and change and let’s celebrate your birthday”Mom said.
“But Dan wants us to meet”
“I already told him you will be coming later in the evening, go and change” She instructed.
“Fine”I grumbled…
