Fore warning: you can graciously ignore/skip the whole part about DID at the start of the book and you won't miss a thing. Trust me
Ashley's POV
February, 2018
"Dissociative identity disorder (DID) is a severe condition in which two or more distinct identities, or personality states, are present in—and alternately take control of—an individual.
That is, a person lives with more than two persons inside of him/her.
DID is a disorder characterized by identity fragmentation rather than a proliferation of separate personalities. In simpler words, the inabilty of a person to live with one identity but rather many.
"DID was called multiple personality disorder until 1994, when the name was changed to reflect a better understanding of the condition. A person with DID live with their own identity, name, character and many other things attached to them but... As long as another personality sufaced, it's another whole new identity entirely. There have been cases where the other personality is more violent that the others".
I was actually getting bored by this topic, okay!,confession time,I'm always bored with this man's class. Even though most of his topics are important but still it gets too long and boring at the middle of it all.
After passing out the assignment for the whole class, he left us with our burden and I quickly left the class before my nemesis catches up with me.
As I was about sneaking off to the cafeteria, the same nemesis were smiling in front of me like the devil they were.
"Hey Tiara" The three of them chorused with the at evil smile on their faces.
"You guys should grow up already ,this isn't high school anymore"
"Now you've grown wings to talk back at us"
"When did people start using wings to talk? I don't think I have the time for your dumb asses today" Using the opportunity of the large number of students coming towards our way,I quickly disappeared into the crowd.
I was sitting on the mini fence just behind the school cafeteria. At this hour of the day, the cafeteria is always packed with hungry students—Hungry for both food and gossip.
Since I don't have an interest in both, I decided not to mingle with them even though not like I ever did.
I checked my phone to see if there is any message from Tiffany and Co, about the interview I went for the other day. I heaved a huge sign of disappointment when I saw none.
I saw a lanky guy walking towards me with a smirk on his face as if he just hit jackpot.
"Hey Ashley, what's up with you these days?, you don't come to the turnups no more" I watch the lanky guy walk towards my direction as he talked. I looked around to see if anyone else was beside or behind me and when I realized his attention was on me, I decided to bring us both out of our nightmare
"I think you got the wrong person, I'm not Ashley and moreover I've never seen you before" The guy rested his arm against the wall all of a sudden and started checking me out.
"You're playing games with me right?, babe, I know the last turnup turned out awful but what's man got to do. We missed you and you don't have to do this to punish us. Come on babe, don't do papi like this" What in God's name is all this?. I only had this type of experience when I first entered school and after that no one came to meet me about one Ashley or something.
I think I need to find this girl and sort things out with her.
"I don't want to embarass you in any way because I'm not Ashley and look.." I said showing him my student identity card. "My name is Tiara and it's not even like I think, I know you've gotten the wrong person. So please, leave me alone" I jumped off the mini fence I was sitting on and started moving into the cafeteria when I felt a hard grip on my hand. I turned back and saw it was the lanky guy.
