Another Interesting Story šŸ˜‹(New Story Update šŸ˜#EPISODE____1šŸ’—šŸ’—

18+

*

*

My name is Charlotte and this is my storyā€¦.

*

Have you ever met a friend who canā€™t survive a day without music?

*

This happened on cold and quiet Friday evening,I had my headphones clogged to my ears with my head rested on my pillow,my eyes weā€™re shut as I concentrated on one of my favorite track from BTS k-popā€™s album..

*

Blissful smiles weā€™re written all of my face as i hummed along,I felt out of this world,I imagined myself outta space trying to picture myself singing to a huge crowd,I imagined people yelling my name as I performed on stage until another noise like the sound of a carpenter hitting a nail into a wood made me flick my eyes open..

*

I quickly remove the headphones been curiousā€¦

*

CHARLOTTE!!!(I heard my little sister yelling my name with a loud bang)ā€¦

*

CHARLOTTE MUMā€™S HOME(she yelled along with a bang)ā€¦

*

I quickly pause the song and threw the headphones on the bed as I hasten towards the doorā€¦

*

I pulled the door open where she was about hitting the door with the baseball bat she was holdingā€¦

*

Charlotte: hannah!,why are you banging on my door like that?( a little bit annoyed)..

*

She stared at me for a second before opening her mouth to speak..

*

Hannah: mumā€™s back and she asked me to call you downstairsā€¦(she said coldly)

*

I quickly slammed the door to her face as I walked back into my room,i breathe a long sigh as i rested my back on the door

*

Am known a kind hearted person and am also a short tempered person, no matter how you frustrate me I walk away or ignore you, and whenever I realized am getting annoyed I quickly walk awayā€¦

*

But my little sister?

Gosh, the little devil,sometimes I wish I can just kill her overnight and bury her at the backyard before anyone wakes upā€¦

*

I quickly arranged my already messy before walking out of my room..

*

I jogged down the tiled spiral staircase where I saw my mum walking up..

*

Charlotte: hi mum (I said with a wide grin)..

*

Mum: how are you sweetheart (placing a kiss on my forehead)

*

Charlotte: mummy please can you warn Hannah to stop hitting my door with that baseball bat?..

*

Mum: I already did(with her hands cupped to my both cheeks).. please help me go bring the stuffs I bought from the car(as she jogged upstairs)

*

*

I arrived at the living room where I saw my sister fully concentrated on the TV show sheā€™s was watching on Nickelodeonā€¦

*

Immediately i opened the front door I felt the cold swept through my skin,I quickly slammed the door shut..

*

Charlotte: damn itā€™s cold(as I massaged my shoulders with my palms)ā€¦

*

Iā€™ve been indoor since morning and I never realized how cold outside would be..

*

Ever since my mum,my sister and I moved into this neighborhood four days ago,Iā€™ve never stepped a foot outside..

*

I think I grew up finding the joy of locking myself in room, either listening to music, playing soft tunes from my guitar, drawing or playing with shineā€¦

*

Shine is the name of my dog šŸ•,I named her shine because of the glittering strap I saw on her neck before I purchased her from the pet store where we once lived in LA(Los Angeles)..

*

We moved down Nigeria after my mum broke up with her American boyfriend, she discovered he had another family outside..sad right?

*

Lucky enough my mum was independent,she works as a manager in a real estate firmā€¦

*

After she gathered enough money, one day she dropped her resignation letter and made plans to establish her business where she was born Nigeriaā€¦

*

Where she worked in LA,she was known and praised for her hard work which made her got promoted with a huge increase in her salaryā€¦

*

Her boss asked if there is anything he did wrong that made her resign,he pleaded for her to stay and even promise to double her salaryā€¦

*

She was tempted to stay back because of the love the company showered on her but she explained her reasons for leavingā€¦

*

One her day off exit,she was celebrated like a VIP,lots of gift weā€™re given to her,cash,a car,houses and other valuable thingsā€¦

*

She got home and told the news to my sister and I at dinner that we would be leaving for Africaā€¦

*

*

She had no trouble finding a house in Nigeria because she was given a beautiful house in one of the most expensive neighborhood in Lagosā€¦

Back to the story

*

*

I hurridly ran down into the luxerous parking lot where my mum parked the beautiful range roverā€¦

*

I pulled the handle to the back door and saw two branded nylons filled with things she bought from the mall..

*

Carefully I lifted the nylons and slammed the door shut..

*

*

Seanā€™s POV

*

*

Where I sat fully concentrated in practicing my guitar,I raised up my head to see mark(my best friend), sitting opposite a large screen as he was busy playing video game with headphones clogged to his earsā€¦

*

A smile crossed my lips when I realized his trying his best to beat my high score of the game(zombie killer)ā€¦

*

A buzz from my phone made me suddenly distractedā€¦

*

I picked up the phone and saw a text from an unknown numberā€¦

*

UNKNOWN NUMBER:hi Sean this is venita from schoolā€¦

*

I hissed and threw the phone aside..

*

I could see the word GAME OVERon the TV screen already,he dropped his wireless pad in frustration,he took off his headphone and turn to look at me..

*

Mark: hey Sean,what says the time?..

*

Sean: uhh(as I viewed my wristwatch) past seven (I replied)..

*

Mark: damn,I have to get going (as he got up)..but I promise you,when next I come Iā€™ll beat your High score, Iā€™ll show you am the best..

*

Sean: okay,am not bragging but at least am leading now(I said with a smile as I got up)..

*

He picked up his jacket where he hung it and head towards the door..

*

Mark, Mitchell and I have been friends from childhood,in school we weā€™re known as the three musketeers,we share all secrets together, Mitchell is a tomboy but she still share her girly secret with us,we play video games together,mock teachers,sing together and we all stay few blocks away from each otherā€¦

*

We all what Nigerians calls BURTY children,we live in one of the most beautiful and expensive neighborhood in Lagos State, neighborhood with glass buildings,garden filled with flowers, beautiful driveways,a neighborhood with a large park for kids and parents to have fun during weekends, neighborhood mixed with white and blacks,it funny how most of us living in this neighborhood donā€™t know our national musicians like the likes davido,wiskid,fireboy because our parents are wealthy to the international baseā€¦

*

Mark and I did our signature way of greeting by hitting our knuckles to the left, right,up, down, center and make a funny faceā€¦

*

There was a time my mum almost got freaked out when she caught us greeting that way but my dad and sister just laughed it off..

*

I watched mark as he zoomed off in his little, green car..

*

The car might look little but trust me,it f**king expensiveā€¦.

*

On my way back into the mansion I sighted my leather ball on the grass,I jogged towards it, raised it up with my feet and dropped it on my neckā€¦

*

My sister suddenly walked out of the house and saw the ball on my neck..

*

Daniella: osheyy yakubu(she teased)ā€¦

*

I quickly dropped the ball and turn to glare at herā€¦

*

Sean: please donā€™t you ever call me yakubu again,this is the Ronaldo of this generation (I said with smirk as I bounced into the house leaving my sister roaring with laughter)ā€¦

*

*

Romeoā€™s POV

*

*

I had my eyes shut where I lay quietly at the back of the private jet,a white gigantic headphone was clogged to my ears as i listen to intentions by Justin beiber..

*

The door suddenly opened as the pilot appeared by the doorwayā€¦

*

I flicked my eyes open and paused the musicā€¦

*

Pilot: uhh sorry Iā€™ve been knocking,I just came to tell you weā€™ve arrivedā€¦

*

Edward: uhg(sigh) okay (I replied)ā€¦

*

I pulled open a little wardrobe and brought out a thick white jacketā€¦

*

I slid into a pair of white sneakers, picked up my wireless headphone before walked out of the boothā€¦

*

I walked down the jet along with two securities my dad paid to keep an eye over me..

*

By now the timezone is 9:15pm in Lagos, Nigeria..

*

*

I walked down to where a large white limousine was parked outside the airportā€¦

*

One of the security pulled the back door open as I walked inā€¦.

*

Romeo: Lagos, here I come (I thought with a smirk on my cheeks as I clogged the headphone to my earsā€¦

šŸ’“šŸ’“šŸ’“šŸ’“

Charlotteā€™s POV (Saturday 10:05am)

*

*

As usual on weekends,am up late,I stayed still for a while staring at the ceilingā€¦

I turned to look at shine who was coiled beside my bed waiting for me to wakeā€¦

*

I unplugged my phone and saw tons of messages buzzing on the screenā€¦

*

Obviously from my friends back in LAā€¦

*

Shine suddenly noticed I was awake,she limped up to where I was standing licking my face,I couldnā€™t help smilingā€¦

*

Charlotte: morning shine (smoothing her curly hairs)ā€¦

*

I started replying my messagesā€¦

*

I flashed back to my last day of school in Los Before coming here,I already announced to my friends and favorite teachers that I would be leavingā€¦

*

It was an emotional moment for me as a soft hearted person,I had tears flowing down my cheeks as we hugged,my teachers spend a lot of time with me,my best friend (Emma) couldnā€™t stop crying as we hugged countless times,the principal called me into his office and gave me the most emotional advice ever,I had no choice than to hug himā€¦

*

School finally closed for the day as I received gifts from most of my friends and seniorsā€¦

*

The best part was what happened on my way down the hallwayā€¦.

*

I walked down to my locker to remove everything I had leftā€¦

*

One by one I dip them into my bag.

*

HELLO CHARLOTTE!(came a voice as i reacted in fright)ā€¦

*

I quickly looked back and realized it was Chris..

*

Chris:(laugh) am sorry to startle youā€¦

*

Chris is one regular guy who has a crush on me since 5th grade up till date, there was a time he asked me out but i declined because I was currently a dating a popular guy from the school football team..

*

I felt really bad but am not a type to double date,later I found out he was cheating on me then I broke up with himā€¦

*

Charlotte: hey Chris (I said in excitement)..been a while.. where have you been?(slamming my locker shut)

*

Chris: Iā€™ve been around, you just didnā€™t notice me..

Charlotte: (laugh) common donā€™t say that(as I gave him a punch on the shoulder)

*

Chris: oh less I forget,I have something for you (searching through his bag)..

He brought out a large frame..

*

It a painting of my smiling face aloneā€¦

*

Charlotte: ohā€¦myā€¦ God (as I slowly collected it).. you drew this?

Chris: yeah,I imagined your beautiful smile and I drew this for you to keep it in remembrance of me..

*

Charlotte: this is so beautiful (as I pulled him into a hug).. thank you..

Chris: so I heard youā€™re leaving today (with a sad look on his face)ā€¦

*

Charlotte: yeah.. and I must confess,am going to Miss youā€¦

*

Chris: Iā€™ll miss you too(as he stared deep into my blue hazel eyes)..

*

Charlotte: I have to get going now(as I walked few feets away from him)..

*

I felt suddenly badā€¦I stopped and looked back where he Still stood by my locker staring at meā€¦

Charlotte:(sigh) if I donā€™t do this I will never forgive myself..

*

In haste I walked back towards where he stoodā€¦

He opened his mouth to speak but I stopped him as I placed my lips on his..

*

He froze in shock for a moment before he slowly relaxed as he returned my kissā€¦

We kissed for 30seconds before I withdrew from himā€¦

*

Chris: wow(he breathed)..

*

Charlotte: I know I wonā€™t be seeing you again so this is my goodbye to youā€¦

Chris: my goodness youā€™re such a good kisser(he teased)ā€¦

*

I rolled my eyes as I walked awayā€¦

*

Chris: hey hold on(he jogged after me)..can I drop you off?..

Charlotte: uhm am not sure(i replied)..my mumā€™s already waiting for meā€¦.

*

Together we walked out of the school where i saw my mumā€™s car at the drivewayā€¦

*

*

Shineā€™s barking suddenly snapped me out of my thoughtā€¦

*

I turned to where she was waiting for me to open the doorā€¦

I opened the door for her to walk out before walking into the bathroom,I looked at my reflection through the mirrorā€¦

*

For once I agree,am beautiful,I viewed my long black hair that fell on my shoulder,my sapphire blue eyes,white teeths..

Okay this is getting weird

I quickly brushed my teeth, grabbed my phone and headphone before walking out of my roomā€¦

*

I arrived at the sitting room and saw my mum and sister already having breakfastā€¦

*

Charlotte: mum seriously?ā€¦ you guys couldnā€™t call me for breakfast?..(as I grabbed a chair to sit)

*

Mum: by the way weā€™re going to the movies tonight..(changing the topic)

Hannah:(gasp) really?

*

Mum: uhhuh..

*

Charlotte: mum can you guys go without me?ā€¦.I donā€™t really feel like going..

Mum:no.no.no, you are going even if I have to carry you on my back..

*

Hannah:(snort) big baby..

*

Seanā€™s POV(6:30pm)

*

*

Mark, Mitchell and I agreed to go to go see a movie tonight so I decided decided to drive with Markā€™s car

We drove down to Mitchellā€™s house as we sighted her walking out of her house on baggy crazy jean and black T-shirt..

*

Mitchell as the only child of her parents has the freedom to do whatever she likes or go wherever she likes,she lives in a house filled with maids, gardeners and driversā€¦

And one advantage about her due to the fact that sheā€™s a tomboy, sheā€™s a great dancer with different award and prices in schoolā€¦

*

Mitchell: hey guys (as she slammed the door to the backseat shut)ā€¦

Mark: weā€™ve been waiting here for the past two months (he joked)

*

Mitchell and i rolled at his regular joke..

*

It was a long drive to the cinema as mark and Mitchell kept talking all through while i remained,well am not much of a talker..

*

We finally arrived as we walked down the busy mall filled with teens of our age taking pictures, nuclear and extended families together with their pets beside them

I realized most of the stores we come across has this one jam playing which blows the mind of everyone.. INTENTIONS BY JUSTIN BEIBERā€¦

*

Mark: damn am loving this jam(he yelled)

*

I turned to look at Mitchell whoā€™s already making some dance steps as we walk

*

Mitchell: šŸŽµpicture perfect, you donā€™t need to filteršŸŽµ

*

šŸŽµGorgeous,make ā€™em drop dead you killeršŸŽµ

*

šŸŽµShower up with all my intentionsšŸŽµ

*

šŸŽµYeah,this are my only intentionsšŸŽµ

*

šŸŽµStay in the kitchen cookinā€™ up, got your own breadšŸŽµ

šŸŽµHeart full of equity, youā€™re or an assetšŸŽµ

*

šŸŽµMake sure that you donā€™t need no mentionšŸŽµ

*

Mark quickly addedā€¦

*

Mark: šŸŽµshout out to your mum and dad for making you.šŸŽµ

*

I couldnā€™t help smiling as in joined in singingā€¦

Some passerbys turned to look at with smiles on their faces..

Some of them started taking videos of us while we sing while Mitchell danceā€¦

*

OPORR(some guys shouted from the crowd)

*

*

Charlotteā€™s POV

*

*

I must confess the cinema at night is actually fun and lively,from the window I could see the word SHOPRITE boldly written as my mum found a place to park her carā€¦

*

*

We walked into the mall and saw a large crowd of people gathered to a sport as I could hear Justin beiberā€™s track(intentions) playing..

*

We drew closer as I saw three teens my age singing and dancing to the song..

*

I was suddenly tempted to stop and watch..

I looked at the people beside me who weā€™re taking videos of them..

*

I found myself humming without realizing I my mum and sister weā€™re way ahead of meā€¦

Arenā€™t they cute? (a girl said behind me)..

*

Charlotte: maybe(I replied without looking at her direction)..

*

My mum suddenly realized am not with themā€¦

*

In panic she turned back and saw me standing like I was hypnotizedā€¦

*

Mum: Charlotte?(she yelled)ā€¦

*

I turned to look at her with a smile waved in return..

Mum: will you come here?..

*

Charlotte: (sigh) fine.

(I rolled my eyes as I jogged towards her)..

*

Together we took the elevator..

*

We arrived at the cinema reception and joined the queueā€¦

*

Charlotte: so mum what kind of movie are we watching?..

*

Mum: I was thinking we see a horror movieā€¦

*

Hannah and I turned at her in shockā€¦

*

Hannah: what?

*

Mum:(laugh) just kidding

*

Charlotte: so what kind of movie are watching?

*

Mum: hold on lemme check, both of you wait here (as she walked down to the reception)..

*

*

Seanā€™s POV

*

*

After catching attention and become popular for some minute, Mitchell and I had to drag mark doesnā€™t wanna leave..

*

Together we ran all the way to the cinemaā€¦

*

We arrived at the reception and saw a queue where people assembled to pay for their tickets..

*

Thereā€™s a girl standing by the standing with her little sister,her attention was focused on her phoneā€¦

*

Sean: wow, sheā€™s got the perfect stature (I thought)..

*

Mark: uhh excuse me,hey(he yelled towards the girl)..

*

Her little sister touched her and pointed towards mark,she turned to look at mark..

*

ARE YOU TALKING TO ME?(she asked)ā€¦

*

Mark: no,the ghost beside you dummy.. of course am talking to you..

*

Mitchell suddenly bursted into laughterā€¦

*

Mark: what type of movies are available to watch?..

*

DO I LOOK LIKE THE MANAGER?(she replied).

*

He opened his mouth to bless her with insult but he stopped when a woman came to talk to her who I guess must be her mumā€¦

*

Mark turned back to look at us..

*

Mark: I canā€™t imagine how somebody will fine but the sense is far,see her neck like our president..(hissed)..

We all bursted into laughterā€¦.
