DREAM (Odeya)

Chapter 27

Finally I got reception so I called Diego. I keep getting a bad feeling

"Diego is everyone all right at home? Is Jackie ok?"i asked
"where did you go to that u lost reception "he asked
"No where" I said
"You went  for the search Bryan.  Now you are in some god forsaken house with low sanitation seriously? " he said
" yes I forgot, square lives to monitor me. Odeya, I would sing with her" I said
He laughed and forgot that he was scolding me.
"Wow! really? so you like her? so dreame Is doing the competition? isn't this the best news tonight"he said
"Yes I guess,so how do we tell her cos I have a feeling she doesn't want to sing. she even lied when I asked if she could sing"I said.
"yea Its her dad. But no issues s square is looking for her mum I just pray we find her. Her past is too painful, just to stop her from singing her dad did so many things to her- she slept in the streets multiple times, he abused her- her step mum too. So we can't tell deya anything about singing until we are sure we can protect her. She might run away" he said
" she went through a lot yet she is still so strong and stubborn " I said, almost to myself
" we still have enough time, just use this period to try getting more comfortable with each other. If she keeps seeing you as God/fearing you  I don't think she will feel comfortable to practice and sing with you.  humble yourself and try becoming friends with deya - not your normal kind of friendship where u talk to the person once in one month "he said
"you know am not used to company. but I would try" i said
"Ok goodnight"he said
"Goodnight " I said

I pray everything works out for the competition. Deya i wish you would find your mom so you Wont go back to your abusive  dad.

I turned down the light then fell on the couch. Being an orphan and having a parent who doesn't care about you ; Which one is better? Still yet, through everything you smile like the world isn't your problem.

I hope you don't run away from me. I am not such a great person. I am still trying to change some things about me. I pray we both accept ourselves and successfully pull this off.

ODEYA's pov ( morning)
Why does this mattress suddenly feel so warm. I opened my eye and I was on the bed. How? I turned and Bryan lay on the couch. did I climb up and chase him from the bed.

I rolled out of the bed then walked over to the couch. He lay on the pillow facing heaven, the sun was shining on his face so I closed the blinds. He was fast as sleep , sora was right he doesn't wake up early. I smiled as I looked at the white polo - he might catch a cold at this rate .

I took the duvet then carefully covered him . His phone was beside his face on the couch , the phone rang so I silenced it immediately. I tried taking my hand from the phone but Bryan turned then lay his face on my hand. I felt butterflies. I smiled. his skin felt like that of a baby.

I gently removed my Hand then shifted the phone. After which I just looked in his Pretty face.  Why do you make me happy? I don't know why.

Its not like you talk to me right But being with you just makes me feel different, I forget all my pains. I won't fall for you bryan. I have to make sure I don't fall for you. because I know you can't be mine.

I watched him turn  to the other side , he used the duvet to cover his face.
I smiled then rushed into the living room. I greeted the family and also did some chores. By the time I returned to the room Bryan was dressing up.

He already wore a black trouser, orange hair warmer, it was written Bryan with black. His hair fell free behind, then by his ear. Silver earrings, silver chain on his neck , silver bracelet. Black designers palm Slipper.

"Good morning"he said to me.

I smiled then watched him wear his black t -shirt. He looked pretty.

Wait Did he just tell me good morning.
