"Mich,wake up"I felt a gentle tap on my shoulder with a feminine voice calling me to get up from my bed.
I opened my eyes and sat on my bed,I stretched my body,I still had that morning look on my face,I checked the time,it was 7:05am,why will anybody wake me up this early?It's not as if I'm going to school or something,I finally decided to acknowledge the presence of my younger sis who was already dressed in her school uniform.
"Why did you wake me up?I told you I'm not going to school,now let me be"I said and laid down on my bed once again.
"Better wake up o and come downstairs for morning devotions"She replied still waiting for me to follow her.
Devotions ke
Since when?"Mummy decided that since you have recovered,you would be joining us in morning devotions"
"Since when?"I voiced out my thoughts. "Since you landed yourself in hospital because of boy"She whispered yelled.
"Abeg shut up,who told you that stupid story?"
"I'm fifteen you know,fifTEEN,so I know all your stories including Mason,I even have my own story"
My eyes which were tired widened when my ears heard what she said,"Your story?Hehe,okay o"I stood up and leaped out of my room,she followed suite.
"Good morning,ma"I greeted my mum the minute I got to the living room. "Morning,my dear,how was your night?"She asked as she flipped through her Bible.
"It was fine"I replied her as I sat down.
She rose her head and looked at Mason who was sleeping,she eyed him and shook her head.
I'm not surprised he is asleep,after playing Call of Duty till 3am in the morning,not bothering to get any sleep at all.
"Nero!"
He jerked up and looked at my mom,"Lead us in worship"
"Maya,you will lead us in praise while Michelle,you will pray for us"My mum instructed. We will obeyed her and the morning devotion session went well even though I never listened to what she preached,my mind was elsewhere,they left for school afterwards,leaving me home alone.
I leaped back sluggishly to my room probably to take my bath or sleep again, in case you are wondering my legs were already healed although I can't walk properly like every other being but I atleast I could leap,after a while of being on the wheelchair,I graduated to using clutches,I actually enjoyed the pampering I got from my family members,they all treated me like a princess till I recovered.
Everytime I rolled myself out of my room to go downstairs or even when I used my clutches,my mum would tell either Mason or Jace to carry me because she didn't want history to repeat itself.
Jace and I have become pretty close although we aren't an item yet,we are just close friends,the thought of how close we have become made me remember how Olivia,Lucas and I were,they were my gossip mates,my paddies,they were my best-friends,I burst into tears when I remembered what they did to me,the day I got discharged from the hospital and came back home,I wasn't happy, everything made me cry that day,the fact that my father heard what happened to me but never showed up or even called,he didn't budge,it hurt me deeply,that day when I grabbed my phone,the picture I saw was the one of Olivia and I,I removed it as my wallpaper in tears,I deleted each and every pictures Lucas and I took as a couple,it was fake after all.
I walked into my bathroom to take a bath,the water mixed with tears in my eyes and washed down my body,after 20 minutes of staying in bathroom,scrubbing lazily and thinking of everything that happened in my life,I finally came out. I took one step at a time like a baby who just started walking to my wardrobe,I opened it to select the clothes I would wear,the first thing my eyes made contact with was my school uniforms on different hangers,I picked out the hanger which had my sky blue button up long sleeve,dark blue skirt and red tie on it,I admired.
