              "Echoes of the past".

"Emily what are you doing at the garden".mummy always shouts whenever she sees me playing lustfully at the garden at the back of our house.
Ever since i have learnt to live with this, it have always been me trying to know the past life of a butterfly at the garden or how plants germinated.
At a point my teachers at school became afraid of me because of how I can tell the history of things that happened before they were even born perfectly and if they asked I will always tell them "just a girl that loves history".

I have always wanted to become a medical doctor just like dad it have always been my dream watching dad put on his scrubs every morning makes me want it the more .

At junior high I was known as a weirdo. Sometimes I think of how mum was able to meet dad because she once told me that she met dad at her junior high school and they have been lovers but look at me I was fifteen then not even a male friend or even a lover the only friend i have then was Charlotte.
"Hey everyone the class weirdo decided to sit at the front desk today"Trisha the class bully will say leaving everyone to laugh their eyes out at me.

I once saved Trisha when we were in senior high when she was almost knocked out by a male basketball player in the hallway which might cost her a life or a serious injury.

When we graduated from senor high i met this man his name was Patrick at the place I worked at a small mall he told me he lived me and we started a romantic date but he left the relationship when he noticed that I do have visions and can read people's memories.
"Patrick is just a gift it doesn't hurt"I tried to make him see reasons
"Emily this hurts you can put yourself in trouble with this in fact I'm done with this whole thing I hope you find someone who can understand better " this was the last thing Patrick told me and since then I had no other date.

"Emily what are we having for dinner tonight"came Rose who just came back from a date with her fiance .
"Maybe grilled steak with roasted vegetables ".
"Ok let me rush down to the grocery store and get some vegetables for dinner ".she shouted starting her car .

Rose was very lucky she had thousands of men falling for her. immediately she broke up with her ex husband she met James a week after her divorce. she has tried hooking me up with some of her male friends but I dislike them a lot cause they don't look responsible.

"I better still remain single and die as a telepath than mingle with those of your friends." I would always tell her.
That night the weather was humid but was filled with the chattering of cutleries and Rose chat from her date as we enjoyed our dinner hoping for a bright day.

(Pov:Rose)

"James was really good to me tonight you would have seen how he petted me,fed me. I'm so lucky to have such a romantic man after that f**l dumped me. I thought I wouldn't find someone better than him but I did by now he will be regretting why he cheated on me, hahahaha ."

(Pov: Emily)

"Rose you will learn to stop addressing that poor man like that moreover he might be with his lover out there"I said sucking my tongue in a sarcastic manner

"Moreover you were the one that broke up with him even as he pleaded that night so you don't have to blame him you failed as a wife, you come home late at night,deny him of his rights damn, girl you ended the relationship yourself".

"I wish i was able to find one,even if he cheats a hundred times i will learn to forgive"droplet of tears started dropping from my eyes, the room was now tense only the shadow of the candle light was found dancing to the rhyme of the cool breeze that has started blowing.Rose came to me,held me in a tight embrace and consoled me. I went straight to my room and cried myself to sleep
