She ran, as far as her legs could take her but it was almost helpless, imagine running from three giants... she was part of a hopeless war. Katrina kicked at the air, her eyes shut once they gripped tightly on her wrist. Fighting back, Katrina landed on her butt and fell flat but turned quickly to face one of the men as he gripped on tightly on both her helpless arms, forcing them above her head after he slammed her tiny body against the solid floor. "Please-" she whimpered and another caressed her face as he picked a few strands of hair out of her face shushing her, causing her to turn. with her eyes still shut, Katrina kneed the man hovering over her right in his groin. he groaned as he tried to suppress the pain, before slapping her hard across her innocent face. She cried silently because she knew that if she were to make any sound, she was to receive another strike. Her will power broke then and there, she lay back helplessly... there was nothing she could do, no one to help her...
I woke from my dream... nightmare, sweat dripping from my face with my heart beating so hard against my chest it felt like it was about to jump right out of me, seated up straight in my bed. I swallowed hard "Just a dream." I told myself. My hand went under the pillow searching my phone. I clicked it on... 04h17. it was almost time for me to get up, though the room was still pitch black and eerie, but I wasn't in the mood of going back to sleep just to have another phantasm.
######
a weekend for me did not have the same definition like anyone else's, mine wasn't laundry day, head back feet up or party until dawn...No. I had a part-time job on that early Saturday morning, like every other Saturday.
I got dressed and prepared a little something for breakfast, for Helen and myself. Wilhelmina wasn't home, in fact she hadn't spent the night here as usual. and I was probably only going to see her on Monday again. #####
"Helen, I'm out." I grabbed my bag and as I walked out. On my way out, I ran into Mina who was just dropped off by her boyfriend. A boyfriend I didn't approve of, not that she ever considered any of my opinions. He was a biker, always wore black leather jackets and make up, typical bad boy... a little odd for a Namibian guy... not that there aren't any Namibian guys wearing make up, they were just... rare.
"Hi." I said in a low voice as I passed by my little sister.
"Hi." Wilhelmina responded nonchalant and that was all we ever said to each other.
I stepped out of the yard and I heard a "Hey." Mina's so called boyfriend, but my eyes found my shoes rather, not wanting to meet his eyes. I just walked past him, on my way to get a taxi and through the corner of my eye I could see him grin sheepishly as he shook his head, only he knows what was going on in his head... but he knew I didn't like him.
Claus wore his helmet and when I was a perfect distance away from home, he sent sounds of his roaring engine all the way to where I was, annoying me. To me, he was nothing but a nuisance. I didn't like him one bit, in true honestly I was terrified of him.
but that wasn't the problem. the real problem, the real problem was what I left in the house. There was less than a year's difference between my two sisters and for that reason, you'd think that they would be the ones to connect more, but its right the opposite. Wilhelmina and Helen grew apart more and more with each passing year, and they are constantly at each other's necks.
It was a long ride to the resort, but I made it and in time. I worked in the kitchen, preparing meals I had never tasted.
"Hey Trina." said one of the waiters. Not only did he work here part time with me, but we also shared a class together at the university.

I was a little taken off guard to be quite honest. I didn't expect him to know my name even though he called me Trina. Plus, why would anyone want to talk to me. We never actually ever spoke since I could hardly keep a conversation going and he was really popular. Some would call him a player but that was only because he was never seen single and had a different girlfriend every two to three days, if not hours. But no one could resist him, girls would kill to be his. the fact that he wasn't too arrogant or full of himself like many made him even more attractive. He was the finest Wambo on campus, the complexion of famous Trey Songz, the height of a basket ball player. he had dark long eye lashes with beautiful eyes that were hazel with pits of green in them, not forgetting his thick brows, broad shoulders, made him look like he worked out all day everyday. *Cough* Im not a stalker...
I was ironing out the wrinkles off my apron with my hands when I froze and hesitated to look up to him. "Hi." I said when my eyes finally met his, giving him nothing but a little smile but quickly, if not abruptly, turned around as I was getting a little uncomfortable, especially with the way my heart plummeted in my chest . I was timid you see.
"So ... what are you doing after this?" he asked once he was in front of me again, but this time moved even closer. I looked up and he was really close, too close to be exact, seeing as my blood had ran cold last time, it had just turned into ice.
"Uh..." I struggled and swallowed a lump of saliva that was uncontrollably growing in my mouth. "Uh... i'll be heading home. Got to study." I said quickly and tried to turn away once again. Keyword being tried . He held onto my arm stopping me from doing so.
"A few friends and myself will be going out to chill, wanna join us?" he asked his grip still firm on my arm.
"I'm sorry, I can't." I quickly turned down. Why? Because he is Ty Nelson!
"Why not?" Ty asked with a blank expression.
"I really have to study." I stuck with that lie. it was true that I wanted to study but I wasn't going to do it that night. I knew that I would be too tired to look at any of my books.
"Come on... I don't bite. besides, its a Saturday, a drink or two wont hurt much less change anything." he assured.
"But I don't drink." I said finding it a little hard to look into his gorgeous eyes without embarrassing myself, when he kept throwing those smirks at me.
"You don't have to drink. Besides, we're headed to Okapana. now don't say you are vegetarian?" he said and I laughed a little.
"No." I said and smiled before frowning. "but my sister will be waiting for me at home. maybe next time?" I said and he smiled back at me.
"I will be waiting." he said and winked at me and then walked away.
