"Do you trust me Kaya?" He asked.
Can i trust him?
We are enemies. We are the opposite of each other. Alike but different.
Water and fire.
light and dark.
Day and night.
Warm and cold.
Dawn and sunset.
Sweet and bitter.
Heaven and hell.
Angel and D...

"Seriously he's so annoying!" Lira shouted through my phone. "Lira he can't be that bad." I say giggling a bit. "You don't know what you're talking about. Just wait, you're going to see what i mean eventually." She says back. "I have to go now, homework." Lira says. "Okay, bye lira. Goodnight love you." I say. "goodnight. Love you too kaya." She says before ending the call.
I completely understand if you're a little confused. Just let me explain my life.
I'm Kaya Ovana. The girl on the phone is Lira, she's my bestfriend. I'm 17 years old but next friday there's going to be change in that. Then is my birthday, january 26. I'm going to be 18 which means switching schools.
I live on the island brendara. The island is split in 2 parts, well not literatly but there's a border we don't cross. You have the north part the angels, that's me. I have lived on this part all my life and i probably will be forever. On the south part you have the demons part. I've never been there in my life.
Were not seriously angels or demons, it's just a name we chose. The name is based of our powers. You have us 'the angels'. We have the ability to control water. That's the main thing we can do. Demon's on the other side have the ability to control fire. That's there main thing to do.
We have these other abilities, as for angels we also have telekinesis, animal empathy and healing ability. I don't think i have to explain telekinesis. Animal empathy, we can feel and see emotions from animals. What they want, what there thinking of. It's pretty cool. Healing i think it speaks for itself only we can't heal ourselves.
Demons abilities are fire, super strength, mind control and honesty ability. Fire and strength i think is pretty clear. Mind control is basically they can control someone's mind, make them do things, make them say things stuff like that. To prevent that from happening angels have a bracelet, necklace or ring that has a stone in it, that stone makes sure they can't control your mind. I have a ring and i'm told never to take it off by pretty much every person i know. Honesty is a tricky one. They can easily tell if you're saying the truth or not. They can't read your mind for the right answer or anything, but they do know when you're lying.
Back to me, i live in a big white house with my dad. I have no siblings and my mom died when i was 12 years old. She was sick and her memory stays with me everyday.
Like i mentioned before i'm switching schools next Friday. Today it's sunday and Lira called me today because she's so excited for me to finally move schools.
On brendara we go to school on our part of the island until you turn 18. On you're 18th birthday you have to go to 'Brendara university'. You don't get all those boring classes anymore like math, english, history and all those other subjects. On this school you simply learn about you're powers. You learn to control them better. Another thing i didn't mention yet, is that it's a mixed school. Which means angels and demons go to school togheter.
Not going to lie i'm kinda excited. I never met a demon in my life. I'm supposed to hate them but i really can't. I've never even met one. My dad and all the other angels say there trouble and lazy and assholes. I'm just gonna have to see for myself.
Lira's birthday was 2 months ago and she has been calling me a lot trying to explain how it is there. She keeps complaining about this 1 student. Marcus is his name. He's a demon and she says he's a complete dick.
He does say mean stuff to her and to be completely honest Lira and i are not the type of student to sit back and listen ignoring them after. Oh no, we fire back. That's what we have been doing to anyone our whole life and demons are not gonna change that.
"Kaya i'm home i have pizza." My dad yells from the stairs. I jump out of my bed walking towards the kitchen. "Hi dad." i simply say back.
"Are you excited for you're birthday next friday?" He asked. I took a slice of pizza and nodded at him. "Yeah, i am." He smiles and we continue eating and talking. Mostly about my dads job.
After were done eating we clean the table and start doing the dishes. I turned on the radio and immediately started singing to one of my favorite songs.
Flowers in your hair - The lumineers
"So now i think that i could love you back and i hope it's not to late cause you're so attractive in the way you move i won't close my eyes." i sang. And then my dad joined and we were singing togheter.
"Cause it takes a man to live ,But it takes a woman to make him compromise.
Be in my eyes
Be in my heart
Be in my eyes ai yai yai
Be in my heart"
We were done and i just went to my room.
I am really tired for some reason so i decide to change in my pyjama. I brush my teeth, do my skincare, say goodnight to my dad and let myself fall in my bed.
Oh, i forget one more thing we have leaders on this island. 2 to be exact. One leader Francis from the angels side and leader Jacob from the Demons side.
Togheter they take care of this island. I wouldn't call them friends but they have to work togheter for this island so that's what they do.
Long before leader Francis and leader Jacob were in control for this island they set up the rule from the border. The rule is that this island is split in 2 parts and either has his own. It doesn't say you can't go over the border but we just don't really do it. You see when an angel crosses the border they will be told that they don't belong there which is basically true but still mean. Who would want too go to a place were there not welcome? And that is only if you're lucky enough to have a nice demon, angels have come back with black eyes, broken bones, blood everywhere, some barely alive. Almost beaten to death.
That's what i know i never went to take a look for myself or anything. That are the cruel stories i have been told since i was a kid.
Still i refuse to believe that every demon is like that. In the eyes off us demons are the cruel people. They are the bad ones, the rebels. And we, the angels were the sweet caring people.
Demons are the rebels and angels are the innocents.
Many people believe that but i see for what we really are, everything demons do we do to. Demons beat people who cross the border for fun, but angels do the same if they cross it. Demons have done terrible things as in setting things on fire, beating people, bullied people. But so do angels. Not me i have never hit anyone or set things on fire, but enough angels do.
If demons are cruel then so are angels. Demons go out at night, smoke, drink, beat people, break windows in houses you name it. But angels, we do it behind the back of our parents.
The secret behind that is, if you act innocent you are innocent.
