Zya was left crying in her dark room that night.She kept on wondering why her mother hated her to the core,why her mother was never satisfied with her and always accusing her and calling her slut! She never asked for herself to be born.
She grew up hearing her mom narrate how much she hated her,how disgusted she felt whenever she set eyes on Zya!.Her mom never gave her freedom.
When all kids were living bubbly,acting cute and free,Zya was raised up strict and is always beaten for one mistake or the other
She was always told never to have friends.Her mom doesn't know and mustn't know Zya has Nell and Kyal as friends or else….
Zya curled up in bed as she cried,cried and cried till she fell asleep that night!
_____________
Kyal was worried!He has been calling Zya but she refused to pick up his call.He began to think if it was because of what he did to her?Thinking about it now,he realized that he has probably gone too far in forcing her and acting possessive of her but he really can't wait anymore!
Zya and Kyal were still bounded by the term 'friends' and he had never revealed his feelings to Zya before.It's impossible that Zya wouldn't be shock and afraid of Kyal's actions.Kyal began to regret his impatient actions
Kyal groaned as the call beeped again,which means Zya didn't pick up his call.He threw away his phone in anger and frustration.His purple eyes was suddenly filled with anger,if she won't accept him,he would have to tie her down because she's solely meant for him
"Young master,Master ordered to see you!"A servant bowed respectfully
"Okay!Tell him I'm coming!"Kyal replied as he got out of bed quickly.
Kyal's father was a man who enjoyed following etiquettes and as his son it's compulsory for Kyal to follow rules.
Kyal quickly went to his wardrobe and selected a comfortable clothe.A baggy white shirt and blue trouser
"Dad!You called for me!"Kyal appeared in his father's room,dressed up in a matching clothes,with neatly brushed hair and glowing face
"Sit there!"His father,Mr Orland ordered in his strict voice.He dropped his pen neatly on a document, and walked to a sofa, sitting opposite Kyal.He removed his glass and dropped it on the table,crossing his knees domineeringly
"You're following me to a business party tonight!"Kyal's father said to Kyal's annoyance..
Kyal hated those types of parties where you'll have to act like you're someone else.Smile to those fakers and pretended to enjoy the party with them
"And I'll be introducing you to one of my partners' daughter.She's of your age, you'll make a good couple..!"
Kyal widened his eyes in horror". No way..I'm not interested in anyone..!"Kyal cuts in, hissing in anger.His heart and body belongs to Zya alone
"It's either an engagement or travel abroad!"His father said calmly, unfazed by his son's anger
"Dad!"Kyal stood up in anger, clenching his fist at his powerlessness
"What?"His father taunted with a smirk"You think I haven't heard all you did because of that girl..!"
"So what?She's mine!"he raised his voice in anger
"Don't let me take action on her!"His father said calmly
"No.Dont..Please don't.!"He bowed his head weakly, clenching his teeth at his powerlessness.He couldn't even protect his woman from his father's wrath
His father stood up and pat his shoulder comfortingly.He believed all he's doing is for his son's good.He doesn't want his son's brain to be consumed by that woman's daughter.Evil people!"Then make your choice peacefully without me doing something that'll make you hurt!"
"How many months do I have left?"He sighed weakly
"Till the end of the session!"
"Just three months?"He asked in disbelief.How would he make Zya his before that time?

"Hello, Zya's homeroom teacher speaking!"Mrs Linda called Zya's mother,Mrs Sylvia
"Hello,good morning! Hoping there's no problem, Mrs..Linda?"
"I called to ask about Zya's absence!She hasn't attend school for the past two days!"Mrs Linda said with a worried voice
"Oh,I'm sorry to not notice the school.Actually my Zya hasn't been feeling fine!"Mrs Sylvia replied with a feigned worried tone of a distressed mother
Mrs Linda suddenly sighed"I think her sickness is getting too much.Please take her to the hospital!"Mrs Linda replied.She knew Mrs Sylvia is lying because she sometimes see the mark of beatings on Zya.She have tried to ask Zya about it but Zya refused to tell,cried and pleaded for Mrs Linda not to tell anyone or else she'll be dead
"I will.Thank you for your care.!"Mrs Sylvia replied aggrievedly and cuts off the call with anger.She threw the phone on the floor with massive anger.That b**ch!
She solemnly walked towards Zya's room and suddenly kicked the door making Zya jump up in fear"it must be good having someone to ask of your little a**,bi**h!"
"Starting from next tomorrow you'll return to school and make sure you hide those disgusting bruises! Understood?"
"Yes ma!"Zya immediately replied.Bowing her head respectfully to hide her happiness
