Chapter 2 - CHAPTER 1 : THE FIRST ENCOUNTER,

< WHITE'S RESIDENCE >

Walking into Kayla's room is as similar as to walking into the room of an insane person. Kayla's mother, Mrs White, gasped at the sight she beheld as she entered the room to wake the sleeping Kayla up.

Without hesitation, she picked up a random blouse laying on the floor and flung it across Kayla's back.

Maybe it wasn't hard enough because lazy Kayla didn't even show the slightest movement of awakening.

Mrs. White smirked. She picked another blouse and added it together with the one she was holding. And without mercy, raised it up to the higher up with all energy she could gather within her hungry self, brought it down and gave an unforgiving lash across Kayla's back.

That worked because the eyes of Kayla flew open at once and she quickly spranged up.

"Is the world finally ending? Is it time to run? Has stupid Jason finally caught fire??"

These were the questions that flew out of Kayla's mouth the instant she sat up.

Her mother scoffed.

"You better carry your lazy self out of this bed, get ready and come downstairs for breakfast this minute before another thunderous whip descends on your back again." she said

"Just when I was about to beat this Jason black and blue and you had to wake me up?" Kayla pouted and said. Feeling so sad even though it was just a dream. Every inch and fiber in her system knew how much she hated this Jason.

"Is she still in bed talking?" Mrs. White said and raised the clothes she was holding up, pretending she was about to land it on her

again.

As soon as Kayla saw the action, she flew out of bed and ran towards the bathroom in her room.

Mrs. White smirked. "Won't you come sit in bed and talk some more?"

"I hate you mom!" Kayla shouted from the bathroom.

"It's mutual baby" Mrs. White replied. "And you better come clean up this mess of a room" she further said but heard no reply.

She walked towards the bathroom door and knocked on it but still no reply.

"Kayla?" "Kayla!" she called but still heard no sound. Slowly, she turned the knob and entered.

And.....lo and behold was Kayla sitting on the floor, her head placed on her bent knees, resuming her sleep.

Mrs. White shook her head. "God what did I do to deserve this lazy human as a daughter? Why me?" she raised her head up and said funnily with her eyes looking as though she was at the verge of tears.

She looked back down slowly and stared at Kayla. She raised her hand up and turned on the shower.

The next expected sound was the shriek from Kayla.

"Ahhhh!! Mom what are you doing here in my bathroom?"

"Was telling you to clean the mess you call a room but heard nothing for a reply. And only to come in here and find you sleeping again!" Mrs. White yelled.

"I was just trying to continue my dream mom" Kayla said.

"Listen to me, young woman. You better finish up and come downstairs for breakfast. I'm starving already!" Mrs. White further yelled and left the room.

Kayla sighed and faced the mirror in there. A smirk taking a toll on her lips. "Jason Kent, the next time I set my eyes on you, you would be as good as a dead rat" she said and laughed crazily.

******

Mrs. White was just setting the table when Kayla appeared.

"Oh! Finally the log is ready" she mocked.

Kayla rolled her eyes. And as soon as her eyes landed on Mr. White who was sitting behind the table and reading a newspaper, she hurriedly ran to him and gave him a bone crashing hug.

"Bestie!" she called "You are back!"

She was really happy for her face was full of smiles.

"Yes bestie, I'm back. The burial didn't really take much of a time", Mr. White said.

He had actually gone for his late cousin's funeral. He'd been away for three days now since the place for the burial was actually way far from where they base.

"I missed you, bestie" Kayla said

"I missed you more" Mr. White said

"I missed you more more" she argued

"I missed you more more more" he argued back

"I missed you more mo...."

"Enough" Mrs. White couldn't bear to continue hearing this unending argument. She sighed.

"Now you" she said pointing at Kayla "come sit down so we can start eating."

Kayla then untangled her hands reluctantly from Mr. White's neck and went to sit down, pouting her plump lips. "Always trying to ruin my fun" she mumbled under her breath.

Soon, the food was dished out onto every one's plate. And Mr. White said a word of prayer.

Few minutes later, Mrs. White began to notice something. Father and daughter were whispering to each other and laughing every now and then.

They were actually gisting themselves.

But Mrs. White began to feel left out. She has always felt such. "Will you two stop the unnecessary noise you are making and focus back on your food? It's getting cold already" she said.

Like robots, Father and daughter turned their heads systematically to her and then back at each other, whispered for the last time saying " Such a fun spoiler", giggled and focused back on their food. Silence ensued.

Five minutes later, Mr. White broke the silence.

"Bestie, have you received the results of whether or not you've gotten the scholarship?" he asked.

Kayla sighed. She had been waiting since the beginning of the week for the results and it's now Friday already yet nothing.

"I think it's network problems. I would go to the cafe to check it from there too" she said

"Alright bestie. I believe in you".

Mrs. White was just staring at the duo. But then she couldn't keep it in any longer.

"Are you sure you will be able to pass? I mean I have never seen the object called book in your hand for a while now" she said.

Mr. White scoffed. "Glen dear, have you forgotten who my bestie is?" he asked with raised brows.

Mrs. White just shrugged and focused back on her food.

....Few minutes later, the family were done. Kayla and Mr. White walked to the kitchen and placed their plates in the sink and stucked hands together.

"She's gonna be so mad" Mr. White whispered to Kayla giggling.

"I know right" she replied giggling too.

And with that, they left the kitchen. Minutes later, Mrs. White entered.

"And who the hell is gonna wash these for you both?!!"

They heard her yell from the kitchen.

"We love you Glen!" they screamed in reply.

Mr. White ran towards the bedroom and Kayla rushed outside, leaving the house.

"I hate y'all!!!" Mrs. White's yell shook the whole house.

< KINGSLEY'S MANSION >

Laying on the bed peacefully sleeping was a very handsome dude.

With his long hair scattered on his porcelain face, thick and long eyelashes hugging together and his full eyebrows, the bitch lying nakedly beside him could not stop staring intently at him.

Her hand itched to touch and caress this perfectly chesiled face. And she did just that.

But then, that was her mistake because that seem to have awoken him.

The most piercing cold eyes flew open at once and the sight his eyes held disgusted him.

"Baby, you are awake", the bitch said, smiling beautifully.

He stretched his hand to the table in search of his wallet. Once found, he took out a good amount of money and threw it at her.

"Take it and get lost" he said coldly.

The bitch's heart sank. She had given her virginity to him willingly thinking that maybe that would make him love her but now what is she hearing? She should get lost?? Nah that's not possible.

She smiled and removed the duvet covering her revealing her total nakedness. She stood and walked seductively towards him at the other side of the bed.

"Baby you know last night was my first right? And I also love you," she said, trying to touch him again.

The guy pushed her and she landed firmly on her butt, her boobs dangling. Pain surged through her immediately and she winced.

"Carry your ugly self out of my sight this instant before I manhandle you! Pfft! Last night was your first so what?! Should I now bow down and worship the ground you walk on?! You must be insane! You better carry your stupid self away before I close my eyes and open' em again! " he yelled all at once.

The bitch knew it was over. She had been warned but played ignorant. I mean who wouldn't wanna be noticed by the popular KINGSLEY HUNSTON?! No female human wouldn't want that. So she decided to try her luck and here she was.

She stood with an heavy heart and wore her clothes.

Then she heard, "Such a dumbass".

That was it! She bolted from the room with tears clouding her eyes.

Kingsley scoffed "Love? You love who? Love is for losers. And Kingsley Hunston definitely isn't one".

Suddenly, he heard the door downstairs being flung open. Noise followed. It sounded as though the people coming were many. Then he heard their voices. And he immediately knew who they were.

His friends.

Soon they barged into the room and he sighed.

"Why are y'all so fucking loud?" he questioned.

But saw them grinning instead.

"I knew it! You fucked a bitch again innit?" Grey asked, grinning.

"Obviously" he replied rolling his eyes.

" Anyways, hurry up and dress up we are going out", Trevor said

"Whatever" he only said and started walking towards the bathroom.

Velvet's eyes stayed on his ass until he entered.

.....Few minutes later he was done and met his friends downstairs. Velvet hung her arm around his neck immediately she saw him.

He smiled. And like that, they all walked out.

******

Inside the cafe was Kayla, sitting in front of the computer with great anticipation and waiting for the information she wants to complete with the loading.

And then...."YES!"

That was from her as soon as she saw what was written in the popped up message. Actually she was accepted into the most famous and prestigious college in the whole of the country. And then her eyes darted to the date it was released. Wait...it was actually released five days ago??

"I knew it was the darn network. Can't wait to tell bestie." she said, gushing.

Suddenly, the girl also sitting beside her screamed. "YES! HUNSTON COLLEGE here I come!"

Kayla immediately looked at her. "Did you just say HUNSTON COLLEGE?" she asked her.

"Yes of course" the girl looked at her and replied, her face full of smiles. And then, her eyes landed on the computer screen in front of Kayla. " You also got accepted?!" she asked excitedly.

"Obviously" Kayla said proudly.

"Gosh, then we've got to be best friends already. I'm Karen." Karen said stretching her hand forward.

"I'm Kayla" she said, smiling and reaching her hand forward too. She liked this chatterbox already.

"We need to celebrate this" she said and grabbed Karen's hand. Together they walked out.

******

Kingsley and his friends walked out of the store. Each one of them holding a cappuccino in hand.

They were all talking and laughing when suddenly a girl accidentally bumped into Kingsley making his drink spill on his expensive clothes.

"Are you fucking blind?!!" He yelled ragingly and pushed her.

The sorry that was about to sound out of Kayla's mouth, ran back down her throat and she smirked.

"Hey dude, why must you push her? It clearly wasn't intentional", Karen said, standing beside Kayla and glaring daggers at Kingsley.

"Shut the fuck up, you lowlife", Kingsley said. From behind him, his friends were busily grinning especially Velvet.

Karen clenched her fists, refusing to let anger take control of her.

"Apologize" Kayla said solemnly.

Kingsley scoffed. "For what exactly? For spilling the drink that ruined the outfit that could feed you and your low class family for a year??"

That was it. Something in Kayla snapped. Without hesitation, she removed her shoe. Pointing it directly at Kingsley and making sure it's touching his shirt.

"Now listen to me, ape. The next time you present your ugly self before me, I promise you it won't end well with you. Due to my forgiving nature, I will forgive you this time but bear in mind that there won't be another."

She said simply.

And with that, she used her shoe to push him out of the way and walked away with Karen, his friends staring at them in bewilderness.
