Playlist: Pretty Little Fears by 6Lack
Valerie's POV I run out of the path with a feeling that is foreign but welcomed. I never thought in a thousand years that I'll be learning photography and the most shocking part of today is that Shane is willing to help me.
Today, I have convinced myself that I want to be happy. When Shane made my laughter known, I kept silent knowing that if I said anything at all, I would have been crying thinking of how I was always cheerful before his demise.
I like the way I feel today, it feels nostalgic and by the way Shane is so friendly, I think I'll be able to learn how to break free from my chains of doubt and locked emotions.
I board a bike and head home with a new feeling untold. **********************
I unlock the house door and mum's not in the house, I breathe out a sigh of relief and drop my bag.
I arrange the rooms and take a shower before plopping down on my bed. I hug my pillow because I try to hold in the feeling in my tummy.
My body feels jittery and for some reason, I feel so comfortable with it. I look at the ceiling and I reminisce today's events.
I still can't believe that someone is ready to help me even without knowing my story. I don't trust him and I still have my doubts as always but I feel like he could really help me.
I make jollof rice and fried chicken for dinner and set up everything. I take my portion to my room and pack the rest in a cooler.
I eat to my fill, wash the plate and go back to the room. I realize that I didn't study as planned today but I liked the way I spent the day.
I take out my books and start studying.i solve a year's worth of maths past questions with great difficulty and then I drift off to sleep without realization...
