"Who are you and what are you doing in my dressing room you imposter?" I yelled looking at a girl's back turned away from me.
"Before you hand me over to the cops,please hear me out" she begged then she turned slowly to my direction.
I froze in my spot, am I assuming things?,is she some kind of a human mirror or what's the word..yeah, a doppelganger?. How on earth can someone look like you this much. Even my look-alikes were no match.
All I could say was...
"How did you get your hair so dark?,and those eyes are exactly the same colour as mine"
Meet Gabriella,who has a minuscule barely existing social life,she lives in a poor home and goes on her life like no man's business.

SHE IS ME
Two identical girls.
Two different lives.
Fate brings them together and they live each
other's life unknowingly.
One with barely to no social life or class,works
hard to survive.
The other living a wealthy life with every one at
her call and climbing the ladder to fame.
Chapter one Gabriella's pov
"Store closing in an hour!"
I yelled behind the counter then hurried to serve coffee to my 'favourite customer'. Philip
'Note the sarcasm' . Philip has this evil spirit of tormenting me,like the devil's reincarnate pissing me off daily.
Since the day I 'mistakenly' linked a video of him dancing to Meghan trainor's 'me too' while wearing his dad's sweatpants and shirts on the counter holding a mic few years ago. did i mention that he was wearing a wig? as much as I didn't want to upload those videos but trust me it was hilarious, the video went viral making him a tad bit famous (he should obviously thank me for that) now he still holds the grudge by making me loose my mind as an ideal punishment.
"Stop staring at me like i'm your lost cousin or something,I know I'm handsome but you don't really have to rub it in". He grins cockily, gesturing to his body. I rolled my eyes at his childishness. As I was about giving the cup of coffee to him I tripped and in a twinkle of an eye the coffee was all over Philip's blazers,I stifled a laugh covering my mouth with my hands.
"you spilled hot coffee on me!"he yelled pointing an accusing finger at him,the first thing that came to my mind was to bite it,but I'm not that immature I guess.
"It's not even that hot" I replied bluntly rolling my eyes.
"it doesn't matter, the truth is that you intentionally did it.
"where is your manager,you are so fired". He said stamping his foot on the tiled floor.
"Gabriella!" Mr Thomas, my manager and owner of the 'Toms coffee shop'. "What is going on here?" He questioned narrowing his eyes at me.
"well your employee is what happened!" Philip huffed glaring at me.
"Mr Thomas it wasn't intentional I swear" I held up my hands.
"Am I actually paying you to do that,why should you even engage in a conversation with a customer" he remarked.
' Well actually my monthly salary can't even buy
me a proper dress'. Of course I didn't say that to him,my family depends on it for survival.
"Now apologize to the young man". What! Is this
guy crazy,why would I do that. Philip was just smirking,I wish I could rip it off from His face " why should I apologize,I didn't do anything wrong,anyways I'm older"I said folding my arms. Philip brings out this childish part of me anytime,any day.
"Only with a year" Philip snapped clicking his tongue.
"It still counts" I retorted through gritted teeth.
"Gabriella!!" Mr Thomas yelled then looked at me pursing his lips in disapproval.
"Fine"
" a- am- sooo- rryy". I stammered. But seriously,saying sorry it's not my thing,I agree that I say it to a few but Philip is clearly unexplainable and doesn't deserve my apology.
"I'm waiting". Philip grinned mischievously,he knew I was very uncomfortable at the moment and he finds it amusing.
" i'm-so-so-rry please forgive me",I muttered the sentence. Alright,the blue -eyed dimwit won.
"Now that's more like it", he looked at me snickering.
Gabriella cool down,no need to cause a scene.
Breathe in.
Breathe out.
In.
Out.
" please forgive her she isn't committed to her work unlike before,when she....."
"Apology accepted" Philip beamed cutting Mr Thomas off from his blather. But I must admit,'philip saved me another lecture from Mr grumpy pants' with his pot belly and really fat ass.
Now,that guy seriously needs a workout.
I got back to the counter packing up. Today's work was so stressful and frustrating unlike the others.
I guess we all know why. Cocky Philip.
I immediately said goodbye to my boss and coworkers,when it was exactly 7:00pm,I went out of the small coffee shop carrying my outdated purse, I got into the bus,put on my earplugs and it zoomed off immediately.
**********
"Gabriella!Gabriella!! Gabriella!!!,a minuscule voice screamed my name waking me up from my beautiful,oh beautiful sleep.
"If u don't get up this instant,I promise to tell Mum on you". The voice threatened.
I scratched my eyes and looked at the figure causing me this great pain. I groaned taking in my little brother's figure.
" Matt,what did I tell you about knocking before you come into my room",I gestured proving my point.
"Well you obviously don't own a door,please Lily and Maddie are outside" oh this is what this is all about.
"How do I look?"... Matt asked fixing his dirty blonde hair with his little fingers.
"little bro,Maddie loves you already" I assured him stifling my laughter.
"Really?" He asked excitedly.
I nodded my head giving him hope.. Well let me tell you guys briefly about my little brother Matt,he has this little crush on my best friend's little sister Maddie,the seven year old thinks he is in love which is a great sight to behold and goes great with popcorn.
"So why don't you go tell Lily I'll be right there in a minute".
" kk",he replied as soon as I was done talking.
I looked at my face in my mirror,looked around me seeing lots of broken junk,let's face it my room looks like a toilet,so little but I try my best to keep it in good shape.
I quickly brushed my teeth and combed my black long hair and tied it into a messing bun.
I ran downstairs to meet Lily,my best friend.
since i moved to this city,making friends wasn't my main priority,until I met Tyler and Lily. My best friends.
"Morning darling", my Mum greeted handing me a chocolate cookie.
"Hmm", Mum did u make this?" I
asked devouring the cookie. Sweets and I have something in common. We are so delightful.
"Of course dear,and don't talk with your mouth full" my mum glared at me.
I rolled my eyes,"OK mum"
"Gabriella!!!"
Oh Gosh,someone should please hand me a sledge hammer,i need to knock some sense into people around this locality.
"Lily no need to scream,I'm right behind you" I told my best friend blankly.
"Since today is Saturday which means you don't need to go to work and obviously no school-"
"Yes?"I said more like a question,furrowing my brows.
"why don't you come over to my house just for today and I will give you a makeover" she chirped happily. I don't go well with makeup,this is a nightmare!.
"No, please no" I immediately declined remembering the last time she held a scissors close to my head,and how long it took me to wash off the pink dye she applied in my hair last time. I cringed silently.
"Well, aren't you a bowl of sunshine " she rolled her eyes. Then she clicked her fingers and looked at me expectantly.
"I watched quite a few makeup tutorials online and I need to try them out,help me will ya?". Lily begged giving me the puppy eyes.
"No Lily,i won't let you try them on me,go search for a mannequin or something" i offered signing.
"Please Gabriella, with cherry on top" she pouted.
"Not in a million years" I scoffed.
She looked at me with bleary eyes and I signed in defeat.
"Fine"
her face lit up immediately. Yeah,She did it once again,convincing me to escort her to hell.
"Thanks Gabby,you won't regret it". She dragged me out of my door.
Well I hope I don't look like a grim reaper instead.

Re: She Is Me, By Osas Igho Donsimonii.com by donsimoniiblog: 1:55pm On Feb 27, 2018
[����A different POV from the first.
Daniella's POV
"Why isn't this shoe high enough?"
Who brought down my poster?"
"I want it up right now ".
"why is my dress so long?"
"what did I tell you about long dresses?".
"I want it short,throw this out I'm not wearing this!!".
I yelled nagging uncontrollably to my assistant angrily,I mean all this good for nothing people are getting on my nerves,why work if you can't handle i well and be more committed.
"But Daniella,you said you wanted this shoe. you wanted it so badly since you saw it on Beyonce' ".
My assistant Lydia remarked showing me a picture of Beyonce on stage wearing the exact same heels. must admit,I did like the shoe but not anymore.
" what makes you think that I would wear that now!" I scoffed at Lydia. Scratching the back of my neck furiously,I need to calm down right now or I would loose it.
"I want you guys to get everything perfect,you know how much I've prepared for it".I ranted a little bit dramatic.
I know i'm being a bitch right now,but that's the only way to talk to them,if you don't scare them a little,they relent.
I just recently released my first album,it's not a big of a deal yet but I want to at least go around London to give out free concert tickets to perform and get known without having to introduce myself a an 'Anderson'. My wealthy parents. I want to get known for me,the real me.
"More like we did everything" I heard Camila my creative designer whispering to someone. I glared at her sending her a signal that I heard what she just said,she took it and brought down her head in shame.. that serves you write ha.
"We promise to work hard and make your tour a success". I heard my best friend,Bethany say,she walked in in her usual princess mode,looking straight and well gestured. We've known each other since we were ten and attended the same school till date,I love her so much. I guess she is the only one who understands me.
Bethany hugged me,shaking me slightly like i'm her long lost child,she raised up my chin seeing my worried face.
" awwn Ella darling what's wrong?",she pouted. Bet is just so adorable for her own good with her dark brown eyes and curly dark brown hair,her slightly tanned skin,flat stomach. She's exactly 5'9 tall and already a high class model at the age of 17,going o different runways and covers for Gucci,Dolce Gabbana,Versace,Fendi among others. She's already making her way to become a Victoria secret model but until she turns eighteen in the words of her father.
"I'm just worried about this tour and everything". I said truthfully to her after dismissing the workers.
"Every body loves you,especially a certain Jared". She teased winking at me.
My eyes widened in realization knowing full well her motives.
I felt a warm blush rise to my cheeks remembering Jared,I've been crushing on him since I was 11 years old,I mean who wouldn't.
" see you are whipped girl" she said in a sing tone. Typical Beth.
"I'm not" I quickly added but it came out off becaus I hid my face in my palms shyly.
"I heard that he is coming back from Milan this sat-"
"Are u serious?" I jumped excitedly cutting her off.
"See" she said rolling her eyes.
"Try not to expect something from everyone" she frowned looking pale all of a sudden.
I understood what she meant by that,her stupid boyfriend Jason broke up with her without any explanation. Simply said reasons best known to
me. What an idiot, i felt for my best friend I mean she loved that dude with all her heart but the monkey broke it in shards. Loser!!!!
I signed moving closer to her and taking her into a hug,she noticed and hugged me back while settling on my lap.
"I'm still on cutting his balls if you want to Beth". I grinned wickedly while rubbing my palms together.
She saw me and burst out laughing so hard that sh rested her head on the arm rest just to compose herself.
" only you Daniella,only you"she said before graduall closing her eyes.
Okay,that's Beth's way of saying 'nap time Daniella,nap time'.
************
A/n. Hi guys,I know this chapter seems a little crappy and most of you are confused about the
whole two different POV but try to read the next
chapter,it has more explanation and it gets better.
Thanks guys, don't forget to leave a comment

Chapter 3 Part1

"Doctor,please what is wrong with my child!" I shouted scratching my head with my Long nails. I gave birth to an identical set of twins two days ago and I was deprived from seeing one of them.
"Please ma'am your other twin is still in the intensive care unit,she is suffering from a spinal cord injury" she said bluntly,i know she is so used to giving people bad news.
"Oh my" I whispered. where am I going to start from?,I'm just a single mother of twins. Why me,their father ran off after hearing that I was pregnant and having twins. He called me bad
luck, which I will never forget.
I heard my first twin Gabriella cry, I immediately carried her and started patting her back while kissing her. "My baby it's alright" I whispered. "You sister will be OK I promise".
I walked to the room where my baby is being laid,seeing her through the glass,her name Daniella was written in a piece of cardboard and pasted beside her bed to differentiate her from others. fres tears gushed down and I was feeling totally denied and abandoned.
I don't have any money to take care of a child not t talk of two with one of them really sick.
I touched the glass staring into my baby's eyes she was awake searching for a mother to feed and care for her.
I cried pushing myself down feeling hurt and dejected.
Why should you suffer for my mistakes, i'm a stupid mother and a disgrace to all mothers. I cried out loud shouting and screaming.
" please ma'am stop your shouts this is a hospital in case you have forgotten"an old lady with a nurse's uniform with a name tag 'Hannah' said glaring at me.
I stood up looking at my daughter for the last.
Stay right there Daniella, I'm coming to get you my child.
I whispered before speeding off with Gabriella.
Two weeks later
I went back to the same hospital feeling angry at myself for leaving my daughter,but I had the assurance that she was OK and everything would be fine.
I opened the main entrance door leading to the hospital but I didn't forget to disguise my self.
When I was finally inside I ran through the stairs and into the intensive care unit bumping into a lady or should I say lady Hannah.
" For Pete's sake" she muttered loud enough for me to hear
"I'm so sorry miss" I begged whilst searching the ward shamelessly with tears threatening to be revealed. I couldn't find my baby.
I turned to the lady "please where is the little girl suffering from a spinal cord injury,I can't find her" I asked nervously.
She looked at me angrily " oh you are her mother you witch" she spat.
"No you are mistaken" I lied."I saw her about two weeks ago and her mother crying herself to death,so I decided to check on her". I rushed still panting for breath..

"Ohh i'm so sorry,it's just that the child's mother abandoned her and it is really cruel of her"". No I
didn't abandon her I went to search for money to
take care of her.
"ohh" that's all I could say,but where is she now?" asked curiosity lacing in my eager tone.
"The little girl was born with luck I guess". The nurse smiled remembering something.
"What do you mean?" I asked at the peak of tears.
"A very wealthy couple,adopted her seeing her condition and paid for her medical bills and all"." And due to their childlessness took her as their own".
"Some people are really nice and thoughtful" the nurse continued to blabber on but I was speechless trying to take in all what she has just said. Oh my
gosh!! my child is gone.
I cried unaware of the stares given to me. The nurse looked at me,hands in her pocket like i'm crazy. I heard her mumbling something along the line 'attention seeker' she scoffed and went away.
********************
3 months later
Cleaning my dried tears,I've been seriously thinking about Daniella for the past three months now. I haven't even taken any thing tangible but I guess I have to stay strong for Gabriella.
I kissed my baby on the cheek. seeing her sleeping was a good sight to behold,she looked so adorable and tiny. I held her little hands gently pushing a strand of her perfectly gelled black hair behind her ears and stared into her sea green eyes what a
lovely face you've got there little one.
But I couldn't stop my self from thinking too much. She looked exactly like Luke her father,the scoundre who abandoned me when I needed him the most. I stood up gently not to wake her up and tiptoed to the bathroom washing my face and combing my tangled blonde hair.
I wonder what Daniella is been fed right now,is
she hungry?,is she maltreated?,do they really love
her?,is her health OK now?.
I asked myself those questions without expecting a reply.
"Martha Grey,what's all that ruffling about or do u wanna wake up our little Gabby". My Mum raised her eyebrows then glared at me.
" i'm sorry mum". I answered still not looking at her.
My mum decided to move in with me after my delivery,she was not really happy about my relationship with Luke,Gabriella and Daniella's father. She even warned and advised me on it,but I didn't listen,now see what it turned out to be.
"She is so precious" my Mum squealed silently, pecking Gabriella on her lips. She turned to me making herself comfortable on the mini couch. "So when will you get a job?" she asked suddenly.
I shook my head,I didn't even think of that,we've been spending the money I searched for for Daniella's treatment since she was adopted.
I picked up the newspaper given to me by Martins our neighbour. Looking through some celebrities pictures,my eyes landed on an available job. I froze when I saw a pic of Daniella,I know my daughter so well she is indeed her. I laughed so hard shaking the paper,my Mum got up immediately staring at m curiously.
"What happened?". She asked trying to get a view as to what made me happy.
" Mum it's my baby,it's Daniella"I shouted. I saw th shock on her face and she immediately gestured me to read on .
I read the part aloud 'we are in need of a nanny for our 3 months old baby,interested applicants should come into the resident below for an interview'.
I jumped up and hugged my Mum.
"What if she isn't the one Martha,don't give yourself false hopes my dear". Such a kill joy.
I ignored her knowing full well it's my baby.
We jumped in shock hearing a loud cry coming fro the couch.
I laughed realising that we woke Gabriella up and carried her trying to put her back to sleep.
I will finally get to see my baby after so long .
I hope u enjoyed reading this,promise to work on
my next chapter,so what do you guys think about
it,pls drop your comments about ur thoughts and
like. Love ya.

Re: She Is Me, By Osas Igho Donsimonii.com by Parollawd(m): 9:28am On Mar 03, 2018
*Still on flashback*
Continuation from the previous chapter.
Waking up was really easy and quick,I didn't need to wake up to the sound of the alarm clock.
I looked at my cell phone which read 6:00am,I hurriedly rushed into the bathroom,after my really quick shower, I literally sprinted to my bed putting my towel in place, I mean it's not everyday a
person looses her chil d.
I looked through my wardrobe carefully not to wake up Gabriella and my Mum with my loud ruffling sounds. I finally picked a floral dress and a black coloured flat shoe to match,tied my hair in a high pony tail making sure not to reveal it's messiness.
I glanced at our old wall clock one more time and heaved a sign of relief when it read 7:00am. Looking at my mum's sleepy feature, tears rushed down from my eyes remembering my little Daniella. I haven't seen her for almost four months now,I know that she is obviously OK but I still had my fair chance of worrying about my little princess.
My eyes became blurry due to the amount of tears I had in them. I wiped it immediately not to ruin my makeup free face. I left a note on the coffee table telling mum I left already.
I collected my bag,the newspaper for the address of course but not forgetting to peck my little Gabby on her lips before dashing off.
_______
It took me about three hours before getting to the sight i'm in right now. I stared at the mansion while confusedly looking at the newspaper.
"Isn't this the right place" I murmured to my self getting a little bit frustrated. I mean I tried five houses before getting to this place. The houses around this estate are really too big for their own good,they screamed 'luxury'.
The smallest house here would be the duplex opposite the mansion i'm in right now all so big with vibrant colours and magnificent gates,I was almost drooling. Lost in dream world I didn't even realise the gate of the house slightly opening with an elderly woman popping her head through it.
"Hello there kind miss" she greeted spreading her contagious smile because I found my self smiling too.
"Good morning ma'am" I greeted back.
"I don't think I know you much my child,if I do please forgive my rude behaviour" she remarked trying to adjust her glasses to the tip of her nose to have a much better view of me.
"No ma'am you don't, please is this the residence of 'the Andersons'?" I shyly asked handing her the already rumpled newspaper.
"Yes my child,it's indeed here" she replied in an amused way,then clicked her fingers and smiled. "ohh did you perhaps come here for an interview?" She chuckled.
"Yes ma'am,so when does it start?" I asked feeling a bit uneasy.
"I'm sorry my dear no one lives here dear-"
" what do you mean no one lives here"I butted in trying to suppress my emotions.
"Well you see my dear,Mr Anderson had a bit of a business emergency to attend to so they decided to move in to London" she said with pity already taking in my sadden face..

chapter 4 part 2
Oh no!
" What about the child,please tell me she didn't go with them" I rushed amidst of tears.
"I'm sorry my dear she went with them"
That does it. I laid down on the floor,crying,screaming and cursing myself for my misfortune. I agree with Luke,I'm nothing but a bad luck.
I covered my mouth with my hands screaming my lungs out, i' m doomed ,my baby,just give me one
more chance to correct my mistakes lord. I silently prayed.
The old woman squatted in my position looking down on me with pity,she gently brushed back my hair with her fingers, I gulped and faced her with my really unappealing face. I mean who cares right now.
"A problem shared is half solved my dear" she smiled lightly cleaning my face.
What do I do now,should I trust her,what if she insults me or tries to bail on me in the future,or should I at least confide in her. I picked the latter I narrated more of my life's history to her,she didn't interrupt, what amused me the most was that she didn't judge me and I really respect her for that.
"What if I never see her again,I don't want that please" I confessed whilst sniffing and trying to hold in more tears.
"Don't say that,she will come around even if it's in the future but she will come" she assured me taking my palm into hers.
"But i'm the cause of everything,now my two children are separated, I should be murdered right now to end all of this"
"Fine go commit suicide and end all this,don't forget that you have little Gabby to go home to,my dear don't just think about yourself,only think about your beautiful two children. " now I have seen where Daniella got her beauty traits from" she smiled hugging me
"Really?" I hugged her back.
"Really" she confirmed "don't think about all this too much,maybe its for the better who knowns" she shrugged standing up and trying to get me back on my feet too.
"Thank you so much ma'am, I wouldn't have taken this alright without you" I honestly thanked her.
She smiled adjusting her gown.
"Please call me Juliet I'm not as old as you think but- anyways you are always welcome just come here if you need an helping hand" she smiled looking at me.
"One more thing ma- I mean Juliet" I corrected my self,she smiled.
"Please don't tell anyone about this,I beg of you. It's better to keep it within us. I don't want any complications thereafter,can I trust you with that?" I took her hand looking really sincere now.
"Don't worry-" She paused for a second "you never told me your name"
"I'm Martha,Martha grey" I beamed cheerfully.
"Your secret is safe with me" she gestured while pretending to seal her mouth with her fingers and throwing the imaginary key away. I laughed at the minuscule act.
"I think it's time for me to go now" I told her wiping my face and running a hand through my already messy hair.
"You don't have to go now,why don't we go inside and have a drink" she pouted looking at me with pleading blue -green eyes.
"I would love to but-Gabriella must be awake now"
She nodded her head in understanding "and so you know I was the nanny of Mr Anderson,Daniella's foster dad. that's why i'm here actually,he treats me like his Mum since she died when he was a little kid" she frowned.
I hugged and thanked her for what looked like the hundredth time today "I won't ever forget you"
She nodded again saying the same,she waved at me signaling me to go.
I left not before looking at the building for the last time seeing Juliet's retreating figure going into the gate,I hugged myself feeling the tears all the way up. I won't ever see my baby again and that all it takes for me falling apart all over again.
That's pretty much how everything began. I almost
cried whilst writing this actually,but promise there
is still more to come.

Chapter 5 part 1

"Hi Ms Daniels,you look so young,with your new hairdo complementing your look " I chirped excitedly to one of our neighbours whilst passing the shortcut leading to my house.
"Oh thank you Gabriella" she blushed spreading her wet clothes on the rope. I simply nodded at her.
I walked on a narrowed path along the road just because I preferred it,it's a lot more fun than taking the main path.
"Hey Mr Williams,nice hair cut" I waved at yet another neighbour showing him my perfect smile.
He chuckled and patted my back.
"Gabriella!"," Gabby!!",Gab!!!" I heard three tiny voice yell my name,trying to hold back my smile. I saw our mischievous trio Josh,Jasmine,and Jerry sprinting towards my direction.
"I'm so gonna kick your asses" Jasmine looked back at her two brothers holding her laughter,she smiled in victory knowing full well she won the race. Jasmine is like the 7 year old version of me,sarcastic,energetic, smart,and most of all funny.
"Gabriella,those two think that they can beat me" she said rolling her eyes while tugging at the hem o my shirt.
"Jas,you cheated" Jerry stomped his foot angrily, then clicked his tongue in annoyance sending daggers at her.
"No I didn't"
"Yes you did",a different voice answered. We all turned to Josh who is touching his kneel with both hands still panting. I laughed at his expression of laziness.
"Guys we all know that Jasmine is faster compared to the rest of you two- you guys are slow as a snail" I decided to butt in.
"No! she is a little she devil who tries to swallow her preys alive" Jerry yelled, earning a slap on the head from Jasmine,he rubbed his blonde hair sending me a look which read 'you see'.
"Who ate my chocolate pie!" I heard an elderly woman yell from the little town house close by.
"Someone's in trouble" jasmine sang.
Josh bowed his head in shame, "Mum won't let me go this time" he muttered solemnly shaking his head.
"Well why don't you find out by telling her the truth" I advised raising his head to look at me. I cleaned his little tears with my thumbs and patted his back reassuringly.
"Yes Josh,Gabby is right,she always is". Jerry smiled hugging me lightly I bent down and took them all in a tight hug,then they all ran off pushing each other.
Wow,it's really nice having triplets I guess, but the ranting and shouts coming from their Mum says otherwise.
I continued to walk waving to as many people." You look great Nelly,and nice cookie by the way"
"Thanks G"
"Right back at ya dude" I smirked giving her a thumbs up. She looked at me confusedly at the name but smiled nevertheless.
"Gabriella" I looked down to see little Michael hugging my kneels,I took the 4 year old in a hug.
"What do you have there little one?" I asked looking at his covered palm..

CHAPTER 5 PART 2
"It's my tooth see" he smiled showing the space left between his teeth and literally shoving his broken teeth into my eyes.
I put his hands down,"Mummy said I should keep it under my pillow for the tooth fairy to see"
I smiled,when I was his age I didn't even believe in them. When I was a kid,my mum tried to convince me on the magical tooth fairy but I laughed and smacked her on the butt yelling "sponge bob got my mum's brain! Sponge bob got my mum's brain!"
"Mummy's right"I smiled putting him down to the ground,I ruffled his hair slightly and tickled him. he laughed so hard almost falling to the dirty floor. I stopped and walked him home.
******************************
I finally got to my street,my jaw dropped seeing my Mum begging some people who I pray it's not.
Oh no.
The loan sharks, not again!,I ran to them trying to stop them from entering into my home. My Mum collected a loan to start up a business,but she couldn't pay back. The last time they came here I assured them that the money will be given to them but I lied.
I bit my fingers anxiously trying to think of a solution.
"leave Tyler to the case" I heard Tyler my childhood friend and also the son to our mayor he smirked removing my hairband. I hit him hard on his shoulder and smiled seeing him in pain.
"Ouch that's gonna leave a mark" he whined rubbin the spot.
"Oh is the Almighty Tyler in pain" I teased wriggling my brow,he groaned slightly glaring at me.
"Hmm- mm as much as you guys look cute together but we are in some kind of crisis,look" my Mum pointed at the loan sharks. Oh I almost forgot.
I rolled my eyes I mean Mum always had the idea o the both of us been compatible and in a relationship It's like oil and water we all know that they dont ge along well,Tyler is really cute I must admit he has hazelnut eyes, dark brown hair and a dimple on his left cheek just like mine.
Tyler handed the loan sharks a paper,they went off after apologizing to my Mum and I. Effect of being the mayor's son.
"What did you do" I turned to Tyler seeing him grin.
"I did what I had to" he shrugged stepping really close. I looked directly in his hazel eyes.
"I don't need your help,we are more than capable in dealing with our problems Tyler" I frowned playing with my fingers.
"I know Gabriella, you said it countless of times but see what happened today" he stepped back engagin in a conversation with my mum. My mum thanked him and went inside.
"Hmm- thank- you" I muttered
"And what was that?" he asked cupping his ear.
I rolled my eyes at his childish behaviour.
"Thank you silly!!" I yelled in his ears.
"Geez! you didn't need to scream"
"You made me do it" I defended myself. "But you didn't have to really"
He took my palm playing with it,"I will do more if it means keeping you safe"he smirked staring directly in my sea green eyes.
He was about saying something but stopped himself by shaking his head and coughing uncontrollably.
"Oh Tyler got the flu" I sang running into my house.
"Oh no I don't!" I heard him yell behind me. but i'm more worried about him getting to me,so I ran as if my life depended on it. Well it actually does.

CHAPTER 6 PART 1
Daniella's pov
something 'bout you makes me feel like a
dangerous woman. I heard my phone ring and vibrate. "What the heck!" I exclaimed reaching for my phone at the night stand.
I picked it up "finally" I mean I'm too lazy to get up so I got to stretch in order to reach it, don't you
dare judge me.
Looking at the contacts name I signed,"Bethany of all people should know that I dont take calls at this ungodly hour"I murmured it's just 3am,what is so important that she couldn't have waited till tomorrow,I love my best friend really I do but she sometimes scares me.
"Yes Beth, what can I help you with?" I asked in an annoyed tone. I paused hearing sniffing and whimpering from the other end what! Is she crying.
"Beth what's wrong,what happened?" I asked again anxiously. it's not every time she gets all soft,she doesn't like showing her vulnerability too much. So this is a big deal people!
"Dan-iella it's (sniff) ja (sniff) son"
She replied in between her sobs. what does this guy not understand about me holding a knife and his balls on the ground and bleeding to death. I
swear,I dont mind attending his funeral.
"What did he do this time?" I questioned weakly.
"Well he-" I heard her blowing her nose at the end of the line and i felt her pain.
"Tell me Beth,what did he do?" I urged her to continue.
"He kissed me Daniella,I mean I tried to stop him but he was so stubborn. I looked so vulnerable in front of him" she cried even harder,i'm not used in giving people advice so i'm clearly a novice here.
"When did this happen and why wasn't I with you?" I inquired feeling guilty for not being by her side when she needed me the most.
"We were at Melissa's party the one you clearly rejected at her face remember?" She scoffed. her voice getting back to normal. Now,that's the beth I know,now moving on to the conversation.
"Oh the thought of her annoys me" I sneered shuddering.
"You've said that since we were ten" she pointed out.
"Remind me why we are still on her?" I rolled my eyes rolling on my back on the bed. Melissa and I always had this beef since we were little she always sees herself as superior,bumptious and annoys me at the little sight she's got. like the day i went to the toy shop with my dad when I was ten. I fell in love with a particular barbie rock star doll holding a mic,I always had this passion for music so I picked it up only to discover Melissa eyeing it. I pulled the doll away from her but guess what I got,she started ranting about her picking it first. long story short. My dad gave it to her saying I was the mature one and she smirked her way out of the shop. That little devil was all I said.
"Daniella you still there!" Bethany shouted at the other end. I removed the phone from my ears and rubbed it.
"Jeez girl!"
"Well you totally suck at giving people advice" she stated as a matter-of-fact. Like I don't know that already.
"Beth look it's obvious,you still love Jason but what don't get is why he called it off, he didn't even tell you why" I said rolling on my left.

Chapter 6 part 2


"I know Babes but I couldn't help it, when he looked at me at the party with that gullible and innocent pretty face of his-" she trailed off "-i almost collapsed,don't you feel the same for Jared?" I blushed at the mention of his name.
"I wish I can just be like you,you have the best parents,you are a great singer and performer and really- really talented now you will soon get engaged to your crush and I'm being here trying to get over my ex" she sniffed.
"Babe you are just as great, don't look down on yourself,you have your modelling career,your friends and especially me. who cares about Jason" I assured her and i can feel her crying again.
"Thanks Daniella you are the best"
" i know right,Now how am I going to get back to sleep" I stood up going to the mirror.
"Milk will do" she advised.
"Whatever Beth, now go to bed and I will take care of Jason" I laughed.
"Kk" was all I heard before dropping my phone on the nightstand and going down the stairs,I tiptoed not to wake up Mum and dad. I went into the kitchen pulled out a bottle of milk from the fridge and some leftover cookies from yesterday, Mum mustn't find out about the cookies,she warned me never to eat too much sugar.
I headed back to my room whistling one of my favourite songs 'shape of you' and jumped on my queen sized bed thinking of Jared before drifting to my dream land.
*****************************
"Good morning Mum,Dad" I greeted my parents pouring some coffee in my personal mug,I slightly smirked seeing my face drawn on the mug,my parents also had theirs.
"Good morning sweetheart" my mum greeted back kissing me on the cheek.
"Danie bear" my dad replied looking up from his tablet, smiling he knows how much I hated that nickname.
"Dad don't call me that,i'm no longer five" I whined with a frustrated sign.
"But you loved it" he frowned. Oh please.
"Yeah I loved it,but not anymore" I stated sitting on my dad's mini bar stool in the kitchen
"You will always be my Danie bear" he chuckled typing some thing on his minicomputer, business matters obviously .
"Ms Daniella,what would you like for breakfast" our cook lady kira asked.
"Well scrambled eggs and bacon will do" I responded,she nodded and went away. I didn't miss my mum's glare on my food choice but I shrugged.
"Thomas should we tell her now?" My Mum asked my dad shifting her eyes from me to my dad.
"Tell me what?" I inquired wrinkling my forehead.
"Well Jared and his parents will be having dinner with us today" my mum smiled.kira came in bringing my food she left after words.
"Really?" I asked excitedly my mum nodded going away. I will get to see Jared now, I'm so so excited,I bite my lips nervously.
I kissed my dad goodbye and went in my buggati veyron and drove off to school.

chapter 7 part 1

Hearing loud ruffling sounds coming from my bed I simply ignored it smiling lightly and trying to go back to sleep. Suddenly I felt someone pull my duvet from my body but still didn't mind. After a few minutes I didn't hear any rough sounds I smiled in victory thinking that the person perhaps gave up. Oh no I was wrong because i heard loud footsteps and I was pushed over falling face first on the tiled floor.
"What the hell!" I exclaimed trying to pull my self back up. I heard snickering from the other end of the room and glared at the person which is no other than Tyler. Oh God please forgive me for
what i'm about to do.
I grabbed Tyler by his collar and pulled him on my study chair trapping him between my hands,I gave him hard slaps on his head continuously.
"Cool it down woman. I was only trying to wake you up,you should thank me you know" he whined getting loose from my trap and holding my hands up. I narrowed my eyes at him.
"For what you Arrow" I spat really annoyed.
"Look at the time G it's clearly 7:30 and school Starts by 7:45" he pointed at the wall clock Oh
geez I overslep t.
"Yes I know you overslept" he pat my head
. "Your expression says it all" he chuckled.
"Then what are you doing here?" I inquired furrowing my brow.
"Yeah I know Lily is supposed to take you to school but she had something to take care of so she called me" he smirked.
"Oh I get now" I scratched my eyes.
"get your lazy ass to the bathroom" he instructed stretching his hands.
I smirked at his choice of words.
"Now!" He yelled. oh right bathroom . I ran down stairs heading to the bathroom
"And you are welcome by the way!" He called from upstairs,I rolled my eyes at him throwing him a kiss,he caught it and placed it on his lips. I shook my head. well that was weird.
I opened the bathroom door only to discover Matt my little brother singing the theme song of teenage mutant ninja turtle while scrubbing his back he held his sponge using it as his mic.
"Ahh!" He screamed at the top of his lungs seeing me leaning on the wall smirking at him. "Gabby you scared me,close the door will you" he pointed at the door I did as he said rolling my eyes.
"Will you please hurry up i'm really late for school Matt" I pouted. he laughed. how was that funny.
" I need to get squeaky clean you know for- Maddie" he said like he was talking about the weather.
" what if I get my phone right now and take a pic of you then send it to Maddie" I laughed wickedly folding my arms.
"No no please don't do that,I will do anything" he begged.
"I just need you to hurry up with whatever you are doing" I pointed at him using my tooth brush "and-"
"I'm done" he smiled getting out of the bathtub.
and that's more like it. I giggled.
I got into the bath tub not before locking the door I heaved a sign of relief as the warm water hit my skin sending pleasures. I hurriedly showered wearing my favourite mickey mouse robe and got back to my room to find Tyler dozing off,I shook my head smiling.

Chapter 7 part 2


I scanned through my ward rope looking for a comfy clothe,I got a demin jeans,tank top and a hoodie I mean it's freezing out there and I really don't like showing off much skin,I picked a pair of black converse and got back down stairs to get changed in the bathroom,as much as Tyler is my childhood friend but I won't have him seeing me naked.
I brushed my black straight hair and tied it in a messy bun,I sprinted back to my room holding my backpack. I woke Tyler and we both got down again. So much work for having just one
bathroom.
"Wait,ain't you having breakfast?" He questioned eyeing me.
"No time for that,we are running out of time" I rushed grabbing his arm.
"Wait" he stopped me. now what.
"What about Matt?"
"Matt get down here please" I called.
"Coming" he called back. I went to the kitchen putting in the pancakes covered in maple syrup Mum made into a brown paper bag and sealed closed with a shimmering heart sticker and a juice box then handed it to Matt,he smiled asking "what's in it" I simply shrug taking him out of the house. I locked it and put the keys under the doormat..
We stepped into Tyler's minivan,we dropped off Matt at his elementary school and headed to ours.
Tyler pulled over at our school's parking lot,I got out of the car with Tyler following behind. I rolled my eyes at the amount of stares at my direction,some where fanning over Tyler while others sent icy glares more like daggers to me,they haven't gotten over the fact that a hot jock being the best friend of a geek like me.
I ignored most of their bickering and face palmed when a redhead dramatically fainted after a wink from Tyler,I knew he was enjoying the tension he created whenever he is around.
A blonde cheerleader who I recognised as Emma swirled her way in the large amount of students. her eyes wandered around the student bodies until they landed at Tyler,she squealed and pushed herself clutching at his arm like a leech,he removes her hand abruptly and she flinches like it hurt. He muttered some curse words that I didn't comprehend and made his way upstairs after hearing the tardy bell ignoring Emma. She fixed her hair and left the hallway with the sounds of her heels resonating.
I shook my head while monotonously loading my locker,after stuffing all my stuff in it,I locked it shut. I sprinted to my history class taking in as much air as possible ( because I needed it) this would be the fourth time i'm coming late to Mr Williams class,as if on cue the door to the class opened and my right hand was up,I faced a very angry Mr Williams he signaled for me to come in and I did avoiding the stares of the class.
"Tardy again are we ms Grey?" He questioned in a reprimanding tone.
"I'm sorry sir,please it won't happen again" I begged trying to avert my eyes from his cold gaze.
"Tell that to principal Blinks" he answered pointing to the door of the class. Oh no,she would probably
give me detention I don't want that no. I need to
have a good student record for the uni.
" Sir-
" now"he half yelled.
I bowed my head in shame going out of the class and straight to principal blinks on my way to her office I met with one of the peeps I live for "Lily" I shouted excitedly urging her to move forward she turned back and bore me into a bone crushing hug.

Chapter 7 part 3




"That's enough now Teddy bear" I laughed trying to free myself.
"Opps sorry. So where are you heading to?" she asked holding my hands.
"Just to the principal's office,ain't you having math?" I inquired furrowing my brow.
"Yes- but the principal called for my attention,I guess it's something involving you" she answered confusedly "or" she narrowed her eyes at me "are you late again?" she shook her head.
I didn't reply
"Gabriella!" She yelled
"Quiet down gee" I looked around if any one heard her scream but no one so I turned to her "fine I came in late with the help of Tyler actually" I replied bluntly .
"Ohh I called him to,now let's go find out why the principal wants our attention" she replied rolling her eyes. I bit my nails anxiously,I do that a lot whenever i'm surprised,anticipating,scared,or lonely I guess it's a part of me.
***************************
"Yes,come in" I heard principal blinks say. We got in,Mrs Blinks office was the definition of perfection,hard cover books arranged nicely on her heavy round table consisting of students records,detention sheets etc. On the wall were beautiful crafts made by some students in our school,variety of pens placed beside her office tag on the table.
"Sit" she ordered,principal Blinks was known for her straightforwardness and strict behaviour,she doesn't talk nor laugh too much she says. i t
renders your brain useles s. words of hers. We obliged and took a seat facing her.
"Let me start with you ms Grey,why the sudden change of attitude towards school?" She questioned with her prehistoric spectacles set on her nose.
"Principal Blinks I can explain" I looked at her for permission,she nodded and I continued "well you see-" I started.
"It was all my fault Mrs Blinks, I stopped for coffee on our way to school"Lily helped out clearly lying through her teeth. I smiled in gratitude and she held my palm mouthing 'you are welcome'.
"But this should be the last time you show such bad act of tardiness. Let me warn you there are great consequences" she advised. Are u kidding
me,she didn't punish me..wow why can't she behave like this permanently.
"Now the real reason I called you two" she continued "our school villebridge will be going on an academic competition more of an excursion to London for-"
"Oh my gosh!!" Lily squealed loudly but stopped after receiving a very cold glare from Mrs Blinks.
"As I was saying -" she adjusted her spectacles. "-We are up against fifty schools mostly from our province" she finished.
"Mrs Blinks,but what is the competition all about?" I suddenly asked I mean i'm really as confused as a fish on land.
"Yes,activities which includes sports,math quizzes,debates and most importantly we will be touring London" she clapped her hands amusedly..oh I get now.
"But,why are you telling us, we aren't the best when it comes to math nor sports,so why us?" I questioned, curiosity lacing in my tone.
"You will be more like bench warmers or should I say substitutes,have seen your grades you two,you are clearly one of the best in this school,so don't be modest my dear" she assured handing Lily and I forms to give to our parents,we stood up after Mrs Blinks dismissed us. We made it back to the hall way. I kept on thinking about what just went on right now,Lily and I being bench warmers. she said
substitutes you Arrow. I yelped feeling someone hug me.
"We are going to London!" Lily screamed hugging me tightly I rolled my eyes at her but smiled nevertheless.
"Yes Lil,i'm happy too" I replied back noticing lots of students coming out of their classes that's when I remembered that I missed history,in the words of Mr Williams due to my tardiness.

Chapter 8



Daniella's pov
"Jared is here" my mum called from downstairs,I stared at my strikingly figure in the mirror turning my back to get a great view. It's been a month since I last saw Jared so I wanted to look perfect for him,my face heated once again and I turned a dark shade of red just thinking of him.
I brushed the imaginary dust from My dress,i'm wearing a netted blue dress. It's kind of simple
unlike me. With a tight bodice that tailors into the slight ruffled hemline. A slight trail of iridescent embroidery covers the chest to waist area,stopped by a satin flat ribbon,I got in my silver pumps and dabbed some makeup on my face,after checking my self out agai n. I murmured a quick "perfect" before winking at the mirror and dashing downstairs.
My house is quite huge,I mean gigantic. It's one of those houses you see on television and wish you'd get someday. I tallied through the hallway and lost my balance tripping on a stool,I gained my balance again but dramatically cried after realizing that I just broke my dad's one of a kind vase,it shattered to the brim in pieces that can never be arranged. I bent down trying to put the pieces back together but shamelessly failed I was now sweating profusely ruining my makeup.
"Oh my gosh,what have I done" I cried still holding a piece.
"Kira,kira,kira" I whisper yelled trying to get our house keeper's attention. She ran towards my direction and her jaw dropped while her eyes widened in realization of the taboo I just committed.
"Yeah I know" I rolled my eyes "can you get it replaced?" I questioned chewing on my nails,I do that a lot more in this kind of scenario.
"No ma'am it's one of a kind and limited,your Dad got it from Paris a long time ago you know" she remarked going into the store room to get a broom. I paced back and forth staring at my Dad's art collection in the hallway which comprises of more expensive works of arts. Why waste money
on this when you can easily get cars and other
material stuffs.
Kira came in with a broom and gathered all the pieces in a brown paper bag.
"Where are you taking that to?"
"Don't worry ma'am I will keep it hidden upstairs at the attic so Mr Anderson won't find out" she smiled sealing the bag.
"Right,thanks kira" I thanked her,she nodded and walked away. I got back on my heels passing a lot of rooms and finally stopped at the entrance to our dinning room,Mum already prepared dinner which smells divine. I licked my lips anticipating each taste of the already roasted chicken,lasagna,French fries,spaghetti, beef,pastries and different varieties of wines arranged in a chronological way.
Mum said this was the only time I get to eat all of those sweets and back to my diet ASAP.
I smiled already imagining my self munching on those food,I bite my lips nervously staring at a certain Jared. He wore a tuxedo which suits him like it was made for him,his slightly messy blonde hair giving him a perfect look,I fiddled with my fingers when his cobalt blue eyes met with my sea green ones,I averted my eyes from his quickly.
Then I realised that he actually came with his parents Mr and Mrs woods,his Dad owns one of the best shipping industry,business markets and shares in this country,whilst his Mum owns the best advanced fashion industry too. Jared told me that both his parents were forced to get married,like more of the rich who arranges marriages for their children. Jared and I both fall in that category but ours is more different and ideal. My parents wanted us to get together cause of the business agreement between the Anderson's and the Woods' but when my Mum found out that I was infatuated and fanny over Jared she was more than happy about fulfilling her child's and husband's needs.
I didn't realise that I was still glued to my position, I stepped forward shakily but was greeted by the barking sound of Luna my Lebanon,she jumped on my arms engaging her saliva all over my now sweaty face,I laughed so hard ruffling her hair,she shifted her head more into my face clearing enjoying the contact, I pat her once more then put her down. She ran back to her favourite chair and settled in. Mrs woods smiled getting up from her chair,I smiled too. We've met on several occasions like important parties and dinners but we greeted with more of the 'heys and hi's'.
"Hello there my child" she greeted enveloping me in a tight hug.
"Hey Mrs woods" I greeted back politely. She disconnected us and pinched my cheeks "call me Catharine will you,I'm not old my dear still as fit as you" she laughed holding her stomach. And that's when I actually looked at her face closely,she had bright blue eyes,tanned skin and a really stunning smile,her dark brown hair fell back and stopped on her shoulders. She is indeed really pretty I must add,i swear I saw Jared glare at his Mum obviously telling her to quiet down,so she did and held my hands bringing me to seat beside
Jared.
I blushed again feeling his eyes on me "hey there" he started.
"Hi jar-
" why don't we start eating now"my dad interrupted holding his stomach,everyone laughed but I rolled my eyes at him . leave it to dad to bring
up food.
You could hear different unpleasant sounds coming from the batting of plates,forks and spoons. I clapped my hands silently seeing my Mum coming with a coconut creamy cheese cake,when it was set on the table,she silently rolled her eyes at me when i took a slice and savored the taste,I moaned silently. mum has her way around my stomach.
******************************
" So how are you Jared?,it's been a while" I asked shyly. Jared and I were walking through my dad's garden,the one closer to the lake. It has beautiful pathways made of bricks and the cloud looked like it was covered with a blanket and holes in it allowing the stars to reflect on the pathway just well adding to it's already perfect structure.
"Yes it is" he muttered solemnly, I looked at his face and frowned,he isn't smiling,or doesn't he like coming here. I cleared my throat stepping in front of him staring directly at his cobalt eyes, oh
my,stop blushing you fool he would think that you
are a freak Daniella get a hold of yourself . my subconscious mind ranted.
"Jared,what's wrong" I pouted. You are indeed a
freak. He held my hand with his and cupped my cheeks "Daniella don't you think that our parents are practically giving us away for their business agreement. It doesn't feel right" he finished,averting his eyes from mine and staring into space.
To you it doesn't, but to me it does. But I didn't tell him that,I've been hiding my feelings from him,I don't want to loose my friendship,have known him all through my life but started developing this great new feelings that give me butterflies in the tummy whenever I look at him. I don't think he feels the same but he will get used to it since we are getting engaged soon. Right?
Right.
"I know,but with time it will feel right" I assured him taking in his palms,he robbed small circles on it,smiling lightly. I know that smile,it's when he isn't sure of something he uttered.
The both of us jinked immediately at my Father's raspy voice. "Who broke my one of a kind vase,why me!!" I laughed anxiously then looked at Jared in horror.

Chapter 9 part 1..
.

Listen to mark Ronson feat Bruno mars uptown
funk for this chapter.
Gabriella's pov�
I entered into my house following the back door,I inserted the key and got in. dropped the grocery bags on the counter,I was on my way to my room but paused on my tracks after hearing bickering from the kitchen,I tiptoed back and quickly hid behind the wall demarcating the kitchen from the little hallway. I almost fell on the floor laughing seeing Tyler and Matt putting on an oversized apron focusing on the batter they were making,Tyler looked amazing in it. He didn't wear anything beside the apron and some worn out jeans,the apron fits him like a second skin showing off his thick abs and muscle. I must say he looks hot in whatever he wears,his brown hair gelled to the back due to him sweating and hazel eyes sparkling as he continues babbling,sometimes I wonder why he hangs around with me when he has a lot of hot bimbos at his feet begging for a one nightstand,he is our school's golden guy,perfect face,perfect grades,his parents are wealthy and being one of the best players in our school's football team at a very early class. He is every girl's dream guy but definitely not mine,we've know each other pretty much all of our life's. I remember the first time we met,it was just like yesterday.
�Flashback�
" Mummy where are you going to? " five year old
version of me questioned. "I want to come with
please" I gave my mum the puppy eyes, she rolled
her eyes at me.
"Not this time Gabby" she went into the store
leaving me outside,mum didn't let me in cause of
the what happened last time,I tripped and fell right
on the shelf of eggs and broke it. She was more
worried of me hurting my self than the broken
eggs,so she didn't want it to repeat itself again. I
inhaled and exhaled sharply staring directly at my
mum's retreating figure. I sat down on a cold
bench and shivered when my hands made contact
with it. I ducked my head waiting impatiently while
tapping my feet on the icy ground.
"Hey nerdie" I heard Dylan say,Dylan is the same
age as me five. He always tease and mock me at
the slightest chance he's got,he pulled down his
hoodie and stepped closer revealing his blonde hair
and freckles on his face. I was about giving him a
piece of my mind before a tiny voice interrupted.

Chapter 9 part 2

"Leave her alone Dylan,or I will make you!" I heard
a not so familiar voice threaten, I shifted my head
to get a good view to my hero,I saw a young boy
same age as Dylan and i,he had brown curly hair
with beautiful hazel eyes smiling at me,then he
shifted his gaze to glare at Dylan. "Now!!!" He
yelled,I chuckled seeing Dylan accidentally fall on
the cold ground shocked he got up and ran. I
didn't miss the sight of him bumping into trash
cans on his way out. I turned to see my hero
stretching out his hands.
"I'm Tyler Martins" he said showing of his perfect
little teeth. I giggled placing my hands on his.
"I'm Gabriella Grey" I greeted back,he grinned
before my mum came out of the mini market
looking confusedly at Tyler and our interlocked
hands.
�Ended�
I grinned. Since that day, I didn't see Dylan again,I heard his family travelled out or something but I didn't care at that time. Then Lily joined us in middle school and became my best friend besides Tyler.
Tyler and my little brother Matt leaned on the counter and I wondered how they didn't see me walk in. I guess they were too engrossed in the pancakes they were trying to make.
"Tyler" I heard Matt mumble.
"Yes?" Tyler questioned averting his eyes from the bowl.
"What's up with some girls,always playing so hard to get?" Matt muttered solemnly. Tyler was taken aback by that question but he looked at Matt,he smirked pointing the spatula right on Matt's chest.
"Is this about Maddie?" he asked with a puzzled expression.
"Yeah" Matt replied shaking his head "I mean no" he rephrased quickly. Tyler eyed him suspiciously.
"You are too young to talk about girls" Tyler replied and I signed in gratitude,I didn't expect that answer from him unlike Philip who leads the young boy on and gives him lectures on getting girls.

Chapter 9 part 3


"You know" Tyler put his hands in the batter,he pulled it out and licked it,he smiled before taking it to the stove. He brought out the pan and poured olive oil on it and turned on the stove placing the pan on it with Matt trailing behind. He continued "when I was your age I thought girls had cooties you know,how stupid of me" he laughed showing his perfect teeth and dimple.
Matt frowned "OK" he said sadly,I can't believe he is actually serious about Maddie.
.Matt has always been one who runs faster than his own shadow,he grows pretty quick and doesn't act like a normal eight year old,he started to walk,talk,run before any of his age did,he had my mum's blue eyes and dirty blonde hair. My mum said I got my looks from my dad,she said he died after I was given birth to,how devastating. I've dreamt of him sometimes holding my Mum's and I's hand walking along the park,whenever I start a conversation about him to my Mum,she simply shrugs and walks out. I guess she is in pain too. Then she got together with a man I remembered as Dante and conceived Matt,he left her afterwards I remember her calling her self 'badluck' which I don't understand. She cried herself to sleep and became a sadist,she vowed never to date again. I begged and tried to convince her but she always stomps out angrily.
Tyler turned off the stove and I must say the pancakes looks pretty attractive and I felt like going into the scene snatching it and devouring it like a hungry raccoon but stopped seeing Tyler jumping on the counter helping Matt up too,he got out his iPhone from his pocket and played Bruno mars uptown funk. Oh gosh this should be
interesting.
I'm too hot (hot damn)
Called a police and a fireman
I'm too hot (hot damn)
Make a dragon wanna retire man
I'm too hot (hot damn)
Say my name,you know who I am
I'm too hot (hot damn)
Am I bad 'bout that Money
Break it down
Girls hit your hallelujah (woo)
Girls hit your hallelujah(woo)
Girls hit your Hallelujah(woo)
Cause uptown funk gon' give it to you
Cause uptown funk gon' give it to you
Cause uptown funk gon' give it to you
Saturday night and we in the spot
Don't believe me just watch(come on)
Tyler held the spatula close to his lips tightly and continued lip syncing to the song. I clutched my stomach so hard trying to retrieve my breath,leave it to me to ruin the moment. I fell on the floor trying to hold in my laughter but accidentally knock over our jar of cookies which gained Tyler and Matt's attention. Tyler face was priceless he looked between confused,surprised,scared and embarrassed then he stopped the music and got down from the counter scratching his head awkwardly. Matt gave me a malevolent glare I guess infuriated at me for intriguing in their space. It wasn't my fault that I couldn't suppress my emotions.
"Hmm. G-gabriella,when d-did you get in?" Tyler stuttered feeling beyond embarrassed.
"Well-"I started
" food fight!!" Matt yelled,oh goodness no no nothing but that.
"Matt,please not-" I was cut short when I tasted flour,I looked down on my outfit seeing it covered in dough,I turned my gaze to matt who was rolling on the tiled floor laughing. I turned to Tyler seeing him stifling a laugh he put his fist trying to denial any stray sound,I glared at them attempting to play mature and walk away but guess what. Tyler obviously from the pain launched a handful of flour on my ass,I sent him an icy glare but he ignored it continuing drowning me with the excess flour, that
does it.
I brought out a bag of flour and chased Tyler around the room targeting any thing around him I got him and poured all the flour right on his hair,matt watching intensely I rolled my eyes and continued with my devilish act.
"What is going on here!?" My mum shouted narrowing her eyes at the three of us,I froze,so as Matt,we exchanged panicked looks apprehensively, Tyler was the only one collected. She eyed us and glared again taken in our now flour pasted kitchen and our dusty attire. I shook my head and some more flour fell on the floor,I smiled anxiously looking at Tyler for a solution "Tyler do something" I mouthed.
"Why me" he asked quietly
"You obviously started it" I argued.
"No I didn't"
"Yes you did" I fought back.
"Fine" he conceded.
"Fine" I retorted mimicking him in an unpleasant way. He simply rolled his eyes walking over to my Mum.
"Mrs Grey,you look really beautiful today" he started,I gave him a thumbs up urging him to continue with whatever he was doing cause my mum was already woed.
"Why don't you have a seat while I get you some pancakes"he placed a hand on my Mum's shoulder and put her gently on the couch,he turned to the kitchen quietly pat my back and gave Matt a high five,he got out a plate and placed some pancakes on it adding strawberry syrup. He got back to the sitting room giving it to her,Mum rubbed her palms and licked her lips. I hope it tastes good as it looks
"wow,Tyler did you actually make this?"she asked munching on a piece.
"Yes,matt helped too" he smiled.
"Gabby learn from him,he is a talented chef" my Mum turned to me pointing a fork at my direction. I rolled my eyes "yes Mum" she continued to blabber on but I was much more worried about cleaning the mess we created. I smiled seeing matt holding a broom,mop and a bucket. We spent the rest of the day cleaning non stop but I must admit it was kinda fun having Tyler around,can you imagine. He made cleaning fun,we continued our lip sync battle singing and dancing stupidly to various songs.
I must admit,it was fun writing this,I hope you
enjoyed it too. Please drop your comment on
it

Daniella's pov
"Hey Ronnie, I need your help right now" I whispered on the phone to Ronnie my butler.
"On the count of ten,I want all your assignments on my desk right now!" Mr Kendrick roared.
I woke up at the wrong side of the bed today feeling frustrated and uneasy,the concert didn't go well as planned. Whilst performing on stage, a crazy fan pulled my ankle and I stumbled and fell on the large amount of screaming people,they ran their hands all over my body part.
And when I said all over I meant all over.
I was humiliated and finally got them off me with the help of the security guards,I was devastated. I ducked my head in embarrassment following a path and hid my self in my dressing room until the end of it.
It was the talk of the day,B- lists social media pages had it,I ignored the paparazzi cause I know they will only make it worse. Mum forced me to come out today after three days of my hiding,I obliged cause she gave me one of those pep talks you see yourself agreeing to everything without fully comprehending the intended purpose.
To top it all up,I forgot my literature assignment in my dresser,I enjoyed writing it so much expecting an A from Mr Kendrick but I guess his infuriated face begs to disagree.
"Yes,what can I help you with ms Anderson?" Ronnie chimed.
"Daniella" I corrected. "Could you help get my manuscript the one with the pink and white poker dot,it's in my dresser"
"Yes ma'am will be there in one" What the!!
"Ronnie,what do u mean one. One what. Is it a minute,an hour or" I brought my fingers to hide my face "or do you mean a day". I asked eagerly but no response.
" reporting to you live from prestige senior high" I heard a really loud chime coming from the back seat. I turned my head only to see Kate and mecha. Our school's broadcasters. They are responsible for reporting,sharing,recording and viewing all interesting trend in our school.
Kate dad is a well known journalist in england,he works with the largest newspaper and magazines companies in the state. She wants to be just like her dad only that hers is more childish. She has an average height,pale skin,brown straight hair always accompanied with different colours of bows to match her outfit,grey eyes,her parents are really wealthy I guess that why she's able to attend our school. She's quite friendly but too loud,very pretty but doesn't know about it. I mean seriously,doesn't
she own a mirror urghh
On the other hand, Mecha is the complete opposite of her bestie. She's dark in complexion,she has lovely chocolate brown eyes,really tall like model like tall with curvy assets,long shadow like black hair which stops at her mid waist,pretty too but shy. Sometimes I wonder how she became friends with Kate stone. It amazes me sometimes the two are polar opposites.
Mecha dad works with my dad in the exporting business and her mum owns a fashion industry just like mine. I guess majority of the kids here were wealthy,some are kids of famous actors,dancers,business group,fashionistas. Whilst others are celebrities them selves just like Beth and I. ( well,I wasn't that famous yet but really soon, I'll be).
But I don't consider them as my friends,just peeps I hang out with occasionally.
Kate turned on the camera pointing it to me and said some few words that I didn't comprehend and I heard Mecha giggle.

she is me
CHAPTER 10 PART 2

That's it I'm doomed.
I inhaled and exhaled anticipating what's next, I put my iPhone in my pocket and closed my eyes as Mr Kenderick counted ten.
"Good day sire,here is the last" a very familiar voice said,I opened my eyes and they landed on a short man,mud skinned with dark eyes,perfectly black hair gelled to the back,illuminating grey hairs and wearing a tuxedo. That's when I realised it was Ronnie I jerked up immediately and grinned my way to stand beside him.
"How did u make it on time?" I giggled collecting my paper work.
"Actually,kira saw it in your dresser when she was cleaning up your room this morning and handed it to me. I followed you thereafter" oh wow this day couldn't get any better.
"Thanks so much Ronnie",I slightly hugged him and submitted it where it was meant to be. Mr
Kendrick's desk. Ronnie nodded and turned to Mr Kendrick saying things that I didn't quite get. I got back to my pink coloured desk.
" babes,you are so lucky Ronnie picked it up"beth chimed resting her elbows on her desk to let her face on it.
"It's my compensation for what happened on stage last week" I frowned bringing that disastrous topic. I cringed thinking of the amount of times I scrubbed my body to get sweat from the crowd off of me.
"Don't let that get to you D" Beth advised flinging her wavy brown hair and flashing me her straight white teeth. I smiled back. I was about responding when the bell rang signaling the end of the class. I scanned everyone looking for Ronnie but didn't see him,I guess he went home.
Beth held my hands swinging her way through the hallway going into the cafeteria.
"Daniella,Beth!!!,hey wait up!" We heard someone yell our names. I turned my back and saw Christine,Hannah and Tori our school's best gymnasts. They were still putting on their leotards. It's obvious they just finished practice. Now guys when I tell you they are flexible,I mean rubber like flexible. They throw their body up in the air without thinking of the consequences,so confident,beautiful,smart and have great serenity.
We bore them into a hug but it got awkward when they jumped whilst spinning us around
"It's OK now lizards" beth smirked,I laughed at the nickname trying to compose my self.
"Let's go eat" Tori clapped her hands enthusiastically while Christine rolled her eyes leading us to our table. We don't have any VIPs table in our school cause everybody here is as important as the rest, so you move in with the crowd in order not to loose your steps.
We finally got to an empty table for five and we settled in,I looked around seeing people bicker about something but when I look they duck their heads. I mean that's it,can't they just move on,cause I did.
When I turned back to our table I saw the girls laughing about something and I laughed anxiously too in order to feel among.
"Now who do we have here,the pretty little
butterfly who doesn't know how to fly" I heard a pouting voice coming from my left. I looked up only to see Melissa Walsh, my rival,she moved her stupid blonde hair away from her eyes and stared at me intensely with her blue eyes,she had tanned skin with a slim and tender waist. Perfect for her I must admit. Her signature outfit consisting of skimpy skirts and tank top,oh she decided to put on a jacket today. oh wow
" Oh that actually rhymed I must admit" I rolled my eyes at Hannah,she shrugged muttering "just saying"
I was about giving Melissa a piece of my mind when I spotted Jared beside Melissa. What are
they doing together?
