Nic paces at the centre of the room, his face twisted in confusion as he glances between Romeo and I.

"Let me get this straight, someone tried to kill both of you?" He asks as he suddenly comes to a halt.

"Not exactly," Romeo replies before I have a chance to speak. He winces as he mistakenly lifts his injured arm then he points at me with the other. "Someone tried to kill her." I shrug.

"It won't be the first time."

                                *****

❝She wears strength and darkness equally well, the girl has always been half goddess, half hell.❞

"Nevaeh you need to understand that life ain't a bed of roses. It has it's ups and downs but that doesn't mean you should blame God for that! Once in a while you lose people you love. It's not because God hates you or because he doesn't exists. It's because that's what is meant to happen." He said dropping his fanta. "God exists. And that's why you and I are still living" he finished. I frowned at him not wanting to press the issue further. He held my gaze, his eyes not leaving mine. I looked down at my plate trying to avoid his bold stare. "This sucks" I muttered. Daniel and Yimika are practically the same in this God thingy. How the heck did I get myself tangled with them?! ############## Have you ever come across someone with so much drama in their life? If you haven't...

It also broke my heart when I decided to follow you home, and saw the hardship life you were living." "In a nutshell," I wanted her to hit the nail on the head. Not because I wanted to sound rude, but because my legs were aching me from standing for too long. "I need your help," She paused her lips. "Which involves being me." ~°~°~°~°~ Uyai is far from being rich. And when we talk about far, we meant FAR. Uyai wasn't a people person.

On a faithful day, Judith got invited to a rich beach party and forced Uyai, to tag along. Uyai so much hated the rich kids, cause she believed they were tinie tiny no good spoilt brats. But things began to change for Uyai, when she accompanied Judith to the party, and saw what she believed must be her clone, or her brain just playing tricks on her. Uyai began to receive an anonymous letter, from someone whom identified herself as 'T'. What would happen when 'T' reaches up to Uyai, claming to be her long lost twin, and also asking for help, to act as her? Would Uyai accept the offer by choice, or by force? ~°~°~°~°~ "I feel someone wants me dead and you being the stronger twin, I want you to help me protect myself." ~°~°~°~°~ Started : 05/04/2020 Finished : 18/10/2020 ~°~°~°~°~ Highest Rankings 02/06/2020 #1 - proudlynigeria
