THE CHEERIOS

INMATE 6

Kim checked every room number on every door to her key card with frustration. This was the third time of going over the whole apartments trying to find hers. The appartment hostel was in a huge building and hers was on the fifth floor. It had an elevator which was much helpful to her. She noticed a huge living room with its door bell spelling "Cheerios". she sighed and whispered finally and then slide the key card in the flat lined area which obviously was for key cards. She stepped in with an amazed look on her face at the neat and decorated living room. it had different kinds of chairs flattering the plasma TV, the dining area which had lots of chairs and a huge table. It was just beautiful. There were video games with comfortable chairs joining them. She wondered if this was a hostel or hotel. She smiled to herself thinking she will be here all alone with no drama, this whole paradise all to herself. She decided to explore more so she walked over to the freezer and gasped. "Damn, I'm gonna like it here". She grabbed a cupcake and bit into it. She felt her tongue miss up the entire cake with a feeling of sweetness. She "mmm" in between the cake and smiled with satisfaction. She went further to the back and saw a number of huge black doors all with numbers infront. She looked confused but shugged anyways. She checked her keycard again and inspected the number on it. It didn't match the first room or the next or the next. On the door on her far right on the end it looked a little different. The doorbell was in a different colour and the number was in crystal stones. The decorated number was "555" with 'c' on top of the middle number. The numbers marched her key card perfectly. She didn't think twice as she slipped her key card in and the beep picked it up and the door opened. She beamed with an amazed eyes as she scanned the room with wide eyes.The room was beautiful.With two beds spacely apart n well dressed. She was confused with the additional bed because she wasn't aware of any roommates. Just as she was scanning rhe room, Liana came out of the bathroom with a towel around her walking barefoot inside the room. Kim had her back to her but as soon as she turned and their eyes collided, they both stared at each other with horror as they both screamed at the same time at eachother.After five seconds of screaming, they relaxed and breathed heavily still taring at eachother.

"What the hell are you doing in my room?", Liana was the first to talk.

"Well, for your information, I live here now, eat, will be sleeping, drinking, in fact, showering here, so if you don't mind, get out of my way". Kim smiled deviously and brushed past Liana, picked her luggage up and walked over to the bed with neat dressing on. She laid her back on it and started pulling her things out in folds as Liana stared at her with a shocked face.

"Are you serious right now. Of all the students, u were the one they picked to be my roommate?.This is so stupid".Liana blurted out furiously and went to her dresser to get dressed.

"Ha...lucky you right".Kim replied sarcastically. "But....the good news is, you don't have to be here if you don't want to, that's the door...."she pointed at the door, "..and that's your dresser, you know the rest right?".

"You can't tell me what to do....".Liana shot back with disgust.

"I know, since the daddy's girl doesn't like to be straightened up, figured much". kim said with a smile and went back to her folding.

"How dare you. You don't even know me!!".Liana shouted at her with fury.

"Well neither do you, so don't judge a book by it's cover, you never know which book You picked!". Kim shouted back at her. With that, an intense silence crept in as they went on to do what each of them were already doing. Liana blowdried her hair, grabbed her purse and walked out unnoticing a white envelop fall out her purse to the ground. Before Kim could reach her, she had long gone. Kim shrugged her shoulders and placed it back on Liana's bed.

*****************
The football team had practiced the entire afternoon in the scorching sun and they felt lyk murdering their coach. Kevin run towards the water jug and grabbed a bottle of water. Almost done with his water, Jayden and Josh joined him. Jayden was was Kevin's best friend. He was the captain of the football team and he picked Kevin to co-captain with after two games. Josh was Jayden's cousin. So technically, they rolled together. Kevin and Josh were part of the cheer group and Jayden, was just Jayden. He had a killer eyes and body since he worked out all the time. He was smart with girls and unlike Kevin, Jayden loved messing around bt with caution. Today he is with this, the next is with a different person. He didn't like to be called a player because he said he was older than that. In his opinion, it is exploring. He was an heir, the first son of the current senator and the famous fashion designer. He wasn't dependent on his family's money or their fame because he had his own which he inherited from his grandparents and it was more than enogh for him. Since no girl had ever said no to him, he taught they can't live without him and he was content with that ego. Josh was calm, cute, sensitive and very funny. He always thought kevin and Jayden were very funny because kevin was way too different to be Jayden's best friend. But three of them together, they were more than brothers.

Jayden had gulped down a whole bottle without a pause and sighed heavily afterwards, "Did you get the pamplet?" he asked kevin out of the blue.

"Yhup. They didn't even open the book". Kevin replied with uncertainty.

"Well if they should have opened it, and found what was inside, it wouldn't have been a secret anymore, now would it?", Josh jumped in with sarcasm.
