Unveiling the Mystery: Exploring the hidden secrets of my life

Secrets are sometimes hard to keep. I have a lot of secrets that eat me up every day that sometimes just makes me want to scream it out, wished I hadn’t done the things I had done to hurt the people I claim to love. But now I have to live with the guilt and hurt. My name is Gabriella Stone; I am 22 years old in my final semester in college, majoring in Arts and also taking a few extra courses on being a social media marketer, that is being an influencer. This year has been a really tough year on me. Well starting from my break up with Keaton; a relationship of four years. I met Keaton during freshman year. At a party I got invited too for all freshmen. I initially didn’t want to go but my supposed bunk mate and best friend Nora decided that it was our first party being in college and that we shouldn’t miss the party. When Nora and I got to the fraternity house of where the party was holding at, everywhere was crowded; one would think it was a carnival or a festival that was happening but it was just a college party filled with drunk maniacs and rude bastard that wants everything that’s beneath a skirt and for me it felt like it was an opportunity for them to forget about their sorry ass life and for the ladies, I felt sorry for their choice of how to party. Once Nora and I got inside the house, she decided to get us to drinks before moving to interact with other college freaks or letting loose. I found a spot for Nora and I before I notice a guy walk up to me to talk to me. The conversation was just dry and then few minutes into the conversation, I began to get pissed off because I didn’t like his rude snotty behaviour and he just didn’t want to get the memo that I wasn’t into him or the conversation. So, as soon as I saw an opportunity to leave him, I did. I walked out on him because I couldn’t deal with his talks and his vibes were not sitting well with me. I find Nora in the kitchen talking to a guy which I got to know was the cousin to the owner of the house. Now Nora and I didn’t even know who was hosting the party. We only heard about the party from fellow college girls. So now I was surprised she met the cousin but I decided to give them privacy and admire the house and take a look around the building. Down along the hallway leading to the bathrooms, I had a feeling I was being watched and followed but each time I turned around, I saw no one. I got pressed and stopped to ease myself. When I was done, I stepped out of the bathroom and there I saw the same guy from earlier. When I didn’t give him the audience he wanted, he decided his next move was to pin to the wall beside the bathroom entrance. I don’t know if he thought that was going to scare me or what but the force, I took in hitting the wall was much but that didn’t stop me from trying to teach him a lesson. You see while growing up, I did some judo lessons and some underground wresting but no one knew because I wanted to live a normal school girl. Before I could deliver what, I planned to give him (I mean the taste of the pain I felt at that moment but his would have been much worse if I was able to deliver my plan), he was yanked off me and punched twice by Keaton. I was dazed for a moment before I recovered from it and stopped this stranger beating up someone else for no reason. I didn’t know any of them but he didn’t have to come to my aid and I didn’t want to wait to see him beat him till he turned blue. I took Keaton to the kitchen to put ice on his knuckles and that’s how we started talking and then few weeks of talking in school and on phone, he asked me out and I was happy to accept because I liked his energy around me and I felt safe at that time. Keaton and I have been together ever since that party until last summer break where we both were invited to a party for all finalist at the same place, they held the first college party of my year. It was where I and Keaton met the first time where I let him think he was my knight in shining armor and I was thrilled to attend the party with him because I was ready to be with him in every way and I mean I everyway. P.s lose my virginity to him. I had been trying to talk to Keaton for two weeks about the party but he said he didn’t feel like attending the party. Keaton that is such a party freak says he is not down to attend his last college party? Was there something I was missing? On the day of the party, he said he was not going that he had something important for the weekend and I believed him and decided not to read meanings to it. I invited my best friend Elnora (“but I call her Nora as I am the only one allowed to call her that as any other person calling her that just want her anger wrath”) over to my house for the weekend which means we were going to the party from my house. I didn’t tell Elnora about having communication issues with Keaton because he has not been picking my calls as it was going to voicemail and I was worried and my nervous system was a wreck today like it knew something was going to happen but the event was going to be inevitable. Anyways, here I am in sitting in front of my dressing mirror watching my best friend do my make over and laughing about something random that I can’t recall what it is as I already zoned out. As Elnora finishes up my makeup and my hair, I get up from my dressing chair and check it out in front of my full-length mirror and I am left stunned by the different person looking at me. I thank Elnora for her magnificent hands that have transformed me. I leave her to do her own make up as I go put on a black romper with a side trail. Then I put on my gold heels I got from my mom as a birthday gift when I clocked 20. Elnora sees me as I finished dressing up just as she was about putting on her black heels to match with her gold sequin dress and her facial expression showed me, I looked like a stunning and that I should get ready to be devoured by every male species. And then I told her I felt too exposed as this was the first party am attending since freshman days but she didn’t want to hear it tonight and I couldn’t say any other thing than to just sigh. Then she went ahead to order us an uber to take us down to the venue for the party as she said we shouldn’t drive so that we won’t have to bother about driving the following morning which I felt was ok because I always felt driving was just too stressful. While waiting for the ride, we decided to start the night by taking some tequila to ease our nerves. After two shots down, we hear a ding that our ride was here so we went down giggling like little girls; I guess the alcohol was starting to kick in. as we got into the car I asked the driver to play some jams for us which he did and for your information this driver was so damn hot. He was very friendly and attractive and well built body-wise and the whole ride was fun. I started drooling over this guy that I didn't know. I was obviously drawn to him which was a surprise cause I have never met a guy that would make me drool over him. I kept stealing glances at him because I couldn't take my eyes off him. But as we got closer to where the party was located, I was a bit happy but mostly sad because the ride was coming to an end and I just wanted to be in his space but then I decided to comport myself of which I failed miserably. We got to the place and thanked the driver and Elnora went as far as giving him a tip just for being cute. When we arrived, the party had already begun so we just went straight to the alcoholic drinks were sectioned at to continue the night. But as we got there, we met some of our college mates looking at our direction whispering and giving us both stunned looks and shocked to see me there. I turn to Elnora to tell her about it and she said am just being paranoid about everything and I don’t argue and decided to let go off the thought and just have fun as my best friend pulls me to the dance floor. As we dance some guys come to our backs but I turned away from them and leave Elnora to dance with her new found friend and I head back to a corner to watch my crazy best friend then I see her go with this guy to a corner to talk and that’s when I bring out my phone to check if I had any messages from Keaton but I had none not even a voice mail, what the hell was going on with this guy. As I put my phone back into my purse, I look up to see a worried look on my best friend face and then am confused, I ask her “what’s wrong Elnora?” and she replies me with a question of hers “did you break up with Keaton?”
