LOGINKehlani The hallway had been silent only seconds ago. Now, I'm seeing strangers in my apartment. I was so scared, an uneasy feeling settled over my skin, crawling down my spine. Then two figures stepped out from the emergency stairwell. Black hoodies, masks and gloves. My blood turned cold. One of them glanced toward the elevators before fixing his eyes on us."There they are."Before my brain could even process what was happening, the second man strode toward us."Phones," he barked. "Wallets. Watches. Everything."My fingers loosened around my bag and fell onto the polished floor. Trevor instinctively stepped in front of me."Easy," he said, his voice calm. "Nobody needs to get hurt."The taller robber laughed. "You her boyfriend?"Trevor didn't answer.The robber yelled. "I asked you a question!”"I am."The robber smirked. "Thought so."He looked Trevor up and down before nudging his partner. "He'll have money."My heart hammered violently. This wasn't real. This couldn't be real
Kehlani “Are you…are you serious right now?” Jade was completely stunned. “I don't understand.”“Come on. Don't you remember what we talked about?” Trevor raised his brow. “When you said I could get someone to keep me company just for a while.”She scoffed. “Well, I wasn't serious about it. You didn't even tell me last session. I thought I could help you. I'm your therapist. Whatever you're saying, I'm here for you.” Her voice was laden with care as she placed a hand on his shoulder. “Um, I'm just going to go back in.” I said and left for the kitchen immediately. I don't think I should interfere. I stayed in the kitchen all through till I was done preparing the chicken broth. While it was ready, I served it in a bowl with a spoon and walked back to the dining room, carefully placing the bowl on the table. The steam curled in the air. “Thank you.” Trevor smiled warmly into my eyes. “You're welcome.” I returned the smile. Jade looked down on the bowl as if she was inspecting it. “
Kehlani “What would you like to eat?” I asked him, tapping my fingers on the table. He shrugged lazily. “I don't know.”I thought for a while. “Well, would you like chicken noodle soup?”He scrunched his face and shrugged.“Vegetable soup?”The same expression. I rested my hands on my hips and stared up the ceiling. “Okay. I could make rice porridge.” I laughed. His gaze lingered on me through half lidded eyes and hummed. “Well, maybe. I don't know.” He replied, unsure. I sighed. “You seem to be a patient that would stress alot.”“Don't blame me. Blame it on my taste bud.” he swallowed and his face scrunched up, the sore throat would have been so painful. Oh, damn. I feel so sorry for him. I was about to say something before his therapist, jade interrupted me. “I wouldn't make rice porridge if I were you.” We both turned. She was coming downstairs and now she was in a pair of leggings and an oversized sweater. So, that was what she wore when she came in. She stopped by the table
KehlaniShe clutched her chest. “Oh my gosh.”I swallowed and held the medicine bag tight so it wouldn't let go of it. I don't understand what's going on and why there's a woman in here. Why is she halfnaked? Who's she? My fingers tingled and my brain is still trying to process what I'm seeing. “Who are you?!” We both blurted together, then the hallway fell silent. She's a blonde lady. I looked at her face, then her pointed nose and down to her body. Skin like milk. So, Trevor has a nice taste for ladies? And he lied to me he's not seeing anyone. By the way, did he do this on purpose? He knew I was coming and now I'm meeting a lady in a bra and panties. What the hell is going on?I cleared my throat. “Um, hi. I'm just here to see Trevor.”She dropped her hands from her chest revealing her full breasts. “So, who are you?”“I'm his….” I paused. Should I say fake girlfriend or just girlfriend? “I'm a friend.”She flipped her hair. “Well, Trevor isn't himself right now. He doesn't need
Kehlani I stepped into campus when the afternoon was bright and windy. Something caught my attention from the massive digital screen that showcased him. I blinked just to ensure I wasn't seeing things and it was true. Trevor was on the screen. So, he's gotten this popular? How come I've never heard about him? The words flashed across the screen : Manhattan blizzards best player. A small crowd had gathered beneath it, watching. Some girls were talking about how handsome he was. I smiled while watching before walking away. Adjusted my hand bag and found my way to the Art Section. Later, I found myself in the usual lecture hall. The room buzzed and I'm surprised to see Andy in school. He came. He sat beside me and I smiled. “Hey, Kehlani. How are you?” He took the seat next to me. “Hi, Andy. I'm cool. What's up? You came to school today.” I tugged my hair behind my ear. “Yeah. Just decided not to skip today.”“Mhm. Wonderful.” I nodded. “Hope everything is going well for you? And
Kehlani A grin plastered on his lips. “Hey.” He said to me, “Hi.” It quickly came out of my mouth. “Hey, Casper.” The guys walked towards Trevor and they shook hands. I saw his name on the back of the shirt. Brooks, 8. He must be the Noah Trevor talked about. They both said something before he trailed off. Trevor then stared at me, keenly. “What?” I smiled. Suddenly, the quiet locker room began filling with voices and laughter. Bags but the floor and guys cheered. Someone shouted. “Yo, Casper!”Another player looked at me. “Oh, who do we have here?”It came to my senses that I was the only woman in their midst while some guys started to pull their hoodies, and another reached for his jersey. Heat rushed through my cheeks and I stared at Trevor shyly. “Uhh, I think I should go.” “Yeah.” He gently reached for my hands. “Come on.”I looked down at our joined hands for a second before following him. His teammates watched us leave and one yelled. “So, that's your girlfriend.”“Mind
Kehlani The hall went silent. Heads turned, quiet. As a graveyard. Elliot fuming, like he was ready to pounce on beat someone, looking down on Trevor who was barely bothered. Trevor just smiled. Elliot's jacket was on the floor and he was just on his singlet, eyes gleaming with anger. I don't just
Kehlani The room went silent. I wasn't expecting him. Wait. Is he following me now? What's his business with my club and siding with me. I'm not giving him a chance to help me. “You don't understand. This is a talk between us, photographers and not outsiders.” Zara stated clearly. Elliot scoffed
Kehlani I screamed and the door opened with Olive laughing so hard. My chest slumped and I froze. “Olive?”She clutched her chest, wheezing. “You should have seen your face.” She breathed out and I pushed her away, straight to the living room, making her fall on the bed and play fighting with her.
Kehlani Trevor's arm was still wrapped around my waist. We were both shocked. Was it a ghost or it really was Elliot. He sat on the bleachers, hands in his jacket pocket, watching. I feel Trevor breathing hard, that look of irritation written all over his face. He then skated towards the seat with
