Chapter one

I lay in my bed staring at the ceiling wondering what am going to do with my life so far since am completing my university next year thank to my boyfriend for all the support 

"Leila wake up mom made pancakes " my sister Palma yells at me as she open the door to our room 

I woke up from my bed goes to the kitchen we live in a small studio of two rooms a living room and a small kitchen with one bathroom I live with my mom and my sister as you can tell we are not rich at all my mom is a chef at a restaurant in our neighborhood and she can't support all of us so I work as a part timer there since mrs Robinson was to kind to gives us those jobs my sister still goes to high school

"Good morning mom " I greeted giving her a kiss on the cheek she smiles at me 

I love my mom smiles she doesn't do it a lot but she is beautiful when she smiles 

"Aren't you late for your classes " my mom asked me giving me a plate of pancakes 

"To day I don't have classes " I bite on my pancakes moan to it's sweetness as they all laugh at me 

"So Leila since you don't have classes can you help me to day choose a dress for my homecoming part " Palma begged me giving me puppy eyes I smile at her I can offer her the world if I could she is my baby sister after all 

After having breakfast all together my mom left to the restaurant and I left with Palma for shopping 

"I think this can do it " she smiles at herself in the mirror she was wearing a dark blue short dress which showes off all her curves 

"Yup you look great sis" we bought the dress since we don't really have a lot of money for shopping a lot of things or choosing from one shop to another we just buy what we could afford and leave 

Palma went to visit her friends since they are even having sleep over and I left goes to the campus I sit in the library reading a book until my friend Emily and Alice thought it was nice to disturb me they are all taking media communication so they have all classes together while me who thought it was good to go for laboratory have all classes on my own 

"My baby Leila I have great news" Alice started sitting next to me followed by Emily who had coffe in her hands drinking from it 

" so what new ally " I ask her 

" you see my father looking for employment in the laboratory at the hospital and I suggested to him that you can use it as internship and he said it's fine " She said I looked at her in surprise you see my friends are so supportive we have a small group but we are happy

"Wow Alice that would be really great thank you "

" great so you are to meet him tomorrow morning at the hospital I think that's when you starting " 

"We need to celebrate this thanks God even though I said nothing but I hated you working there "Emily laughed jumping in her chair "my brother will be happy to know that finally you are out of there " she added i smile know that James will be definitely happy 

We chatted for few hours until it was night Alice dropped me home I usually go with Emily but her boyfriend called her and she left for him he was drunk and he couldn't drive 

I got home to find Palma watching a movie 

" I thought you were having a sleepover " I asked her laying my beard on her laps she knows exactly what to do she started playing with my hair 

" Change of plans " she said but I could read my sister as an open book and I could tell she is not happy I turned to her still laying on her " start talking "

"Is there anything I can hide from you " she tried to brash it off by laughing but it was fake 

I sit back up giving her the look not to play with me 

" don't think that am stupid right??? Maybe am even crazy for thinking it but I really don't know " she sighs I keep on looking for her to finish 

" okay fine I think Jack is cheating on me with Kelly" she said and I looked at her as if she was crazy Kelly is her best friend and Jack is her boyfriend and there is no way Kelly would do that to her 

"What makes you think that" my sister loves Jack really so much that I can tell that they really love each other and Kelly is so damn down for her friends but Palma is so observant so that's why I asked her even though I don't believe it my self 

" they have been so secretive lately but I didn't think it was a big deal but to day when we were at Kelly she didn't want to put her phone down so when she went to the bathroom Sarah thought it was good idea going though her phone" tears were forming in her eyes I was shocked my self she continued " Leila there conversations was off and they made plans to meet tomorrow night for there "CAT" that's what it says " I pulled her for a hug she was crying her eyes out now 

After she seemed to calm down " when we asked her about it she was so angry and told us not to go into her phone without her permission " she adds 

I was so shocked how could they do this to my sister Palma seems strong outside but she is so weak-hearted she fall a sleep in my arms we ended up sleeping on the couch there 

I woke up in the morning early since I had plans today James didn't call I wondered why I went to my room got ready and left
