I didn't want to go back to the parish house till it was late but I needed to change my clothes so I had to borrow one of Yvonne's.
I told them everything that happened yesterday; how my mum got me a new place to stay to ease her paranoia and how the priest reminded me of him whose name should not be mentioned. I had told them the story of my life although I left out some information's like me getting my money through blackmail.
Yvonne wore a red short gown with a diamond earring and no accessories. Zara wore a long sleeveless gown with a sleet that was so high it reached her hips, talk about sexy.
I wore a back crop top and shorts with diamond earings. Yvonne and I settled for boots while Zara wore an eight inches high heel.
We laughed and danced in the car singing to our favorite songs.
"You know this heels are killing me." Zara complained.
"Girl I didn't tell you to wear no hells. Don't come complaining to me I ain't your mama or do I look like one?" Yvonne's remarked, sharply.
They were always opposing each other, well Yvonne was always on Zara's tail but I knew she loved Zara. I remembered how we first became friends.
I had gotten my admission letter quite early even before the admission list was brought out online.
My problem was leaving home. With everything that happened that year it was so hard for me to accept going to college. In fact my therapist had suggested that I deferred my admission but I refused. I couldn't put my life on hold because of fear.
During the first weeks of school I was very bitter and very bitchy but I was not a bully, I might have been a bitch sometimes but I was never a bully.
In fact I stayed on my own staying clear of everyone and anyone. I became extremely private so no one knew me until one day. While I was passing the departmental building in the evening I heard voices.
"Come here you Bitch!" The first voice spat.
"She's scared." The second voice said with a shatter. They were both laughing hysterically while another voice kept shouting 'let me go!"
' I could tell from her voice that she was scared and that caught my attention. I needed to see what was going on.
"She said let her go!" A third voice ordered. I ran further into the hallway to see what the hell was happening.
When I got there I saw the most popular girl in the faculty, queen, and her tag along standing in front of a very scared looking girl. She was kneeling down and the queen asked her to kiss her foot.
"Or you are going to do what?" Queen replied to the girl who just challenged her. The girl happened to be Yvonne and she was quite known in the school for being the party queen.
I couldn't take the sight anymore. "Let go of her!" I ordered, without even thinking.
Queen laughed hard throwing her head back. I narrowed my eyes at her. When she saw I wasn't a bit scared or moved by her show of adequate stupidity, she stopped laughing. "And who are you?" She asked, giving me full attention.
"You really want to know that, " I asked with a smirk, coming closer to her with each word.
"I am Mira. I do not think I need to introduce myself or do I?" I asked cocking my brow.
"Mira?" She whispered.
" I believe that is what I just said" I stated curtly stopping her from speaking.
"Let's go Ariana leave her alone." Queen's tag along said pulling her by the arm.
"You should listen to her," Yvonne added smiling. "She seems sensible."
"And if I don't," she asked trying to act strong but I could see the fear plastered on her face like a map.
"Oh girl do not use that tone on me. I do not need my mum or anyone to fight a war for me I can very well fight my own wars. Don't pick a fight with the devil just for a little fun, It could be very very dangerous," i threatened.
Queen moved closer to me so we were only a few inches apart. "Game on!" she challenged she walking away.
Yvonne and I both rushed to Zara who kept thanking us profusely for saving her and that's how we became friends. Queen actually meant what she said when she said game on and she kept trying to pull me down but I was always a step ahead of her. Sometimes I was even three steps ahead of her.
The one that finally made her give up was when I won the pageantry that made me the Queen of the school. Rumors had it that she slept with judges just to get the crown. I actually entered into that competition to bring her down not that I was interested in modelling or any of that sort. I knew I would win over her even if I was paralyzed.
After the pageantry we hit the height of popularity in school and she became nothing.
With the shame of her failure and the fact that she was no longer respected as before, thanks to me.
She transfered to a school abroad. With her Last word being "I will come back for you. And my last word to her being," hell you would and I will always be prepared.
If only she knew that I have had enemies weigh tougher than she was and I was still standing strong.
"Back to earth Mira!" Yvonne snorted, clapping her hands in front of my face. "You've been zoning out quite often. Is anything the matter?"
I didn't even notice that I had stopped driving and we were actually walking to the club now. It still surprised me how I managed to function even when I completely zoned out.
"Matter? what can be the matter," I shrugged. "I was just thinking of how far we have come as friends and I couldn't be more grateful for you both. You two are the best Friends anyone could ever wish for." I smiled.
"Awww we love you too and you are the bestest friend in the world." Zara chirped in.
"Group hug!" Yvonne shrieked, pulling the two of us into a massive bear hug. I immediately felt better.
