Chapter 1: it All Begins
Layla pov (point of view)
"don't let them escape, we must find them, let's split up" someone says pointing to some other people who quickly started running to different directions
" my love are you okay?" a male asked with concern laced in his voice
"noooo it..it just broke, I think it's coming"a female screamed
" no, not yet please, I can't lose any of you" the male said
"there, let's go in there NOW" the female pointed to a little house ............................................................
"my love they're close by" the male said
"she's beautiful"
"she is indeed" the male says
" please take care of her" the female sobbed
"my love I'm sorry" the male said caressing her shoulders
"let's go" the female said getting up they left
..........................................................................
"I love you" a male voice
"I love you too" a female voice
"I love you today". " tomorrow".
" and forever, our love will grow, as our powers flow, I'll protect you, for I've come to love you more, on this........."Layla, Layla"
*Deep breaths*
"ah that dream again" I held my head, while getting up from my bed, eyes still closed
"LAYLA" oh my! I wack my head as to how forgetful I can be
"coming" I got down from my bed and ran my way down the stairs only to be met with the angry face of my aunt. I would have laughed if the situation was not serious
"Aunty Trinna I'm so sorry I..."
" Breakfast is ready" with that saying she left heading to the kitchen
she must be really angry today
"give me your hand" oh my goodness, when did she get back from the kitchen well nvm (nevermind) I placed my hand on her palm
"you're left hand" oh,
I did as she said, she covered the bead that was on my left wrist with her two hands while she closed her eyes, sometimes I think she's a witch, no offence but.....
"I'm not a witch" my eyes widened in surprise as to what she just said, did I say that aloud, I just stood stiff not knowing what to say or do
" you do know your late" aunty Trinna said still holding my hands while staring at me
" oh yeah I forgot" I said scratching my head awkwardly which made her chuckle
"forgetful Layla, hurry up so you can eat your food before it gets cold, you don't want to make a bad impression on your first day of school do you?" she said making her way back to the kitchen. I ran back upstairs to get prepared for school, ever since I was little aunty Trinna has been teaching me at home, so this is my first time attending school outside home and I'm really happy...................
..........................................................................
After I'm done with everything, I put on black baggy jeans, white with black stripe hoodie, and white sneakers to go, then I took my school bag along as I made my way down stairs to the dinning table.
After eating, I took the plates to the kitchen, where aunty Trinna was washing them
"No dear I'll do it" she said taking the plates from my hands
" No I'll do it besides it's not much" I argued
" you're already dressed for school, do you want to stain your clothes even before getting to school?" she asked raising a brow at me
"fine, only because you made a fair point" I pouted, which made her chuckled
"Bye aunty Trinna" I hugged her, she hugged me back
"aunty Trinna are you crying" I asked worried as I heard her sniff
"no, I've spoken with your principal last week so to make things easier for you" she made some movement before letting me go
"thank you sooo much, aunty Trinna you look sad" I said when I noticed the slight change on her face
"no don't worry about that, come back early okay?" she smiled, I know she was trying to hide the fact that she was sad
" okay, but please don't be sad" I said a sad impression on my face
" I won't" she hugged me once again before going back to her washing, I smiled, I'm so lucky to have someone like her as my aunty, ever since my parents died, I don't even know who my parents are, I don't even know how they look like. I remembered asking aunty Trinna about them when I was 13 years old, she had told me my dad died before I was born, and mom died the day I was born, I was so sad then, even till now I am, I feel like I was cursed even before I was born , like I was not meant to be in this world .................................

PERFECT HIGH'
Ha funny name for a school
I entered the big gate and my jaw nearly dropped to the ground, the school was very big, when I say very I mean it
'great, I'm going to get lost on my first day of school' I thought as I walked into the big building, to be honest I don't even know where I was going to, not to add with the looks I was getting, some girls were eyeing me, some looking at me while the guys were either smiling or winking at me, well that's their problem...
I stopped after climbing a few stairs, I was truly lost and there was one thing left in my head for me to do, honestly I don't want to do it 'ASK' ugh how I hate that word,only aunty Trinna get to see my cute side, right now I'm hopeless and asking is the only way for me now, but one problem no one was on the stairs , ahhhh 'this is sooo frustrating' I was about going back down the stairs when I heard sounds, disgusting sounds and I think is coming from the next stairs up, you know I would have just mind my business and go down stairs but noooo I won't I'm curious what do you expect.....
I claimed up the stairs, looking at where the sound was coming from I nearly vomited, the nerve these two have doing something as disgusting as this in a school, even till now they don't seem to stop their kissing, so I have to do the one thing that came to my mind
" ARE YOU TWO INSANE" I yelled at them which caused them to stop what they were doing, the both of them were now staring at me with anger evident on their ugly faces..
You know what I don't have time for this nonsense
"Show me to the principal's office" you see I didn't ask
"NOW" I said one last time, they didn't even move, they just kept staring at me, I was clearly angry, they dare disrespect me
"Look sweetie, just escort yourself from here before I do something we both will regret"
The guy said, while the makeup blonde smirked, wait did he just threaten me...okay that does it
"Show me to the principal's office now" that was the last straw in me
'since you don't know your mate....." he came forward moving his hand to touch me, before his hands could touch my shoulders I immediately hit it hard, which made him really angry
"Hey...." He pushed me backwards, the impact on which he pushed me would have made me fall but I didn't, I'm strong and not a weak ass, I looked at the i***t with anger, before he could even react I pushed him with little force which sends him flying back hitting his back on the wall he fell to the floor, I smirked 'that's what you get for messing with layla' I inwardly praised myself, he got up slowly while glaring daggers at me, really if looks could kill I would have been dead by now, but nahh it doesn't, he finally got up and was still glaring daggers at me
"You b***h" he said with gritted teeth coming towards me, he raised his fist in the air about landing a huge punch on my face, I held his fist with one of my hand, he tried using his other fist but I immediately caught it too,then I twisted them causing his bone to snap
"ahhhhhhhhhh" he screamed struggling to get out of my hold, I crossed his two hands with force which weakened him, then I landed two punches on his face, and one at the side of his rib,he fell on his knees
'this is how it's done well done Layla, next time they'll learn how to respect you ' I praised myself, I look at the makeup blonde who was watching with mouth agape, immediately we lock eye contact she closed her mouth,I looked at Ken who was still on the ground, the nickname kind of suit him though KEN
"Now get up and show me to the principal's office.Now. Including you Blondy" she frowned, clearly she doesn't like what I called her, immediately he got up, and started going up the stairs with the makeup blonde who was clearly eyeing me, after climbing few more steps we got to a door which was clearly written on a white plate 'PRINCIPAL'S OFFICE'
they were still standing by the door "thank you. Now leave" what I still need to be grateful to them, they both scurried off, with the makeup blonde still eyeing me., i opened the principal's office.....
