After the incident that happened at school i kept thinking if that guy wasn't there then maybe I would be dead by now and gone to God which would have been great since I was already tired of my life, But somehow I wasn't ready to go yet, i had to overcome my fear and solve hidden riddles.

Saturday was a very brief day apart the fact that my sister tired to actually get me to do shopping with her, i spent the rest of the day reading novels and sleeping.
After that we had a movie night watching the "prayer room", i actually liked the movie cause it was a Christian movie and it talked much about prayer.
Something that I had stopped doing ever since I left bangladesh for personal reasons. Mom and Dad were religious people and added a lot of importance to our relationship with God (something i am grateful to them).

After the movie, i headed to my room and thought about the reasons why I stopped praying.
* Cause God did not answer my prayer.
* I felt left alone by God.
I guess that was all I ended up with, i really wished God had the answers to all my questions about why everything happened to my family and i.

" Girls get down quickly!" Mrs potter yelled down the stairs.
Today was our first official Sunday service ever since we came back.

I decided to wear a black and white dress with long sleeve and black heels. I don't usually wear heels but the heels really had to go with the dress not forgetting my gucci bag.
We were all ready and we're heading to the church.

The church was massive with craving writing on the wall of bible verses, it was painted in white and grey. The doors and windows had a light color of blue with many benches around the sides. The service started at 8 am, 

" My life is not my own, To you it all belong, I give myself, I give myself away
I give myself away" the choir sang.
As the song was going on, i was so caught in the moment that I didn't realize I was crying. Being in the lord's presence was the best remedy i needed, with all that has been happening i completely forgot the peace God use to give me and that he is still willing to give me but i had closed the door to my heart.

"Hallelujah, glory be to the all mighty God, who reigns forever and ever!" the pastor started preaching
" The lord our God is our shepherd and he shall always be there for us, we just have to let him be our shepherd and us the sheep. The lord said all those who are tired of carrying their burden should come and the lord will carry it for us, so every problem or burden that you are facing, don't give up cause the lord is there, convey in him and trust him, Amen" everyone starts clapping.

" Close your eyes, let's pray,
Our father, i commit onto your hands your children, those who are hurt, broken and have no hopes, that you reveal yourself to them, let them understand that you will always want their good. I pray that all those who have separated themselves from you, bring them back and let them witness your love, In Jesus name we pray" Amen, the whole church chorused at the same time.

After the service, we met with the pastor, Aunt and uncle were talking to him when I felt like someone was looking at me, i turned just to see the new boy staring at me.

" Hey!" I greeted him
" Hi" he answered sheepishly
" I didn't know that you attended this church?"

" Really? Cause I have been coming to this church for 3 weeks and i have not seen your shadow around" Daniel said

" Whatever, where is your family?"
" What business do you have with my family?"
"Am just asking cause it will be weird if you are all alone" i said
" How is that weird? At least I don't follow my parents around like you, so will you please excuse me" he said rolling his eyes

Bullet***
That really hit me, like how am I following my parents around and by the way they are not my parents and how dare he walk on me because of a simple question I asked, like seriously!!!.

" Vickyssss, WE are waiting for you outside,it's time to go home if you are done daydreaming" joseph said

Sometimes I wonder how this girl gets the gut to talk to me like that cause before she could not talk to me like that before

" I heard you but this must be the last time you address or talk to me like that, am your elder sister so talk to me with respect, Am i clear?"

" Yes sister , am really sorry,  I will not repeat it again"

" Good girl, let's go"

Walking out, I almost bumped into someone
" Am so sorry!"
" No it's ok"

She was standing right in front of me, wearing a navy blue short with a black shirt, her hair curled to her back ( since she had long hair)

" luna right?"
" Ohh yeah, how are you Vicky?"
" Am fine and you?"
" Great, enjoying your Sunday?"
" Of course and you? I asked her
" Well it's going well so far..."

" Luna dear, it's time to go home" Mrs. Chamber said while smiling to me

" Well it was a pleasure to see and have an exchange with you, see you tomorrow" luna said
" Same here, see u tommorow".

As I was walking away, luna called me back,
" Can i please have your number?"
" Of course" i answered her and gave her my phone
"Bye" luna waved my her hand and went away.

Heading to the parking lot, i noticed Vicky and her family outside. But she was behaving awkwardly, until i saw why she was really behaving like that.

Daniel Walter was standing right next to her and was talking to her mother and just right after that they all entered the car.

I was really shocked to see them go together, are they related to each other or maybe her parents were dropping him but why the Chambers out of all people?
