DEEPEST FEARS

I was enjoying my peaceful sleep,I was still dreaming about me and a guy dancing suddenly I felt my body wet. All my beds were filled with water,all my body were so soaked with water also. I stood up lazily to checked the person and I discovered it was my mum. I checked the time and discovered it was 5am in the morning..... anyways that is how I wake up early,I will sleep late and still wake up early while Eva my sister wakes at 9am. Mummy good morning ma"I greeted her.

"Keep your greetings to your self you fool,I had woken up to ease myself and I discovered you are still asleep are you not supposed to be washing the dishes now huh" she asked. "Am sorry...am sorry mum" I said and quickly ran out of the room. When I reached the kitchen,I felt a sharp pain in my belly and I already knew the pain.....it was menstrual pain,I usually have pains if am on my period but my mum does not want to know if am having pains or not. "Omg,ooooh!!! I don't even have sanitary pad to use now,I normally buy it for myself but if I have money but It have finished...I guess i will just use clothes,if it should finish,I normally use clothes. Let me introduce myself,my name is kareen Charles am 17yrs old,am staying with my parents and I have a younger sister who is 15yrs,we are not poor in my family let me just say middle class. My mum is a business woman while my Dad is a banker.... With all this they still alIow me to hawk cup cakes every day anytime am back from school_ I think that is okay about me now. I don't know why my family dislikes me, have been asking myself the question since. I saw the plates in the kitchen and I almost passed out.....why are the dishes many today huh. I picked them and I started washing them, even though I was feeling pains. I guess am the only one awake, because I could not hear sounds again maybe my mum have gone back to sleep. I started feeling cold and also shaking vigorously due to the water she poured on me. After I finished washing the dishes,I started cooking breakfast and i checked the time and it was 6'o clock.....I am a dead meat. I quickly left the kitchen to washed the dirty clothes because if she is awake and am not done she is going to beat me for it. I am the one that wash the family cloth every day including my sister's own. We even have washing machine but she does not allow me to use it. After I finished washing the plates,I quickly picked the broom and I swept the whole house. Before I knew it,I finished my works..... After I finished my work I reached my room and I quickly removed my clothes and entered the bathroom to bath after I finished bathing I checked the time that I was late already which is a normal thing for me so I quickly dressed up on my way to the kitchen to carry my food I met Emiy on her way to school. Emiy and I does not stay in the same room her room is more prettier and we'll furnished than my own.....the only thing I have in my room is my cloth and an abandoned bed the bed is even smelling due to the way my mum pours water on it whenever I did not wake up early. "Kareen go and help me to bring my school bag," she said. "What?? Did you mean me?? " I asked her "Who else will I be talking to if not you,are you deaf??" She asked. "You must be stupid" I said and wanted to pass her. "You heard her clearly you fool,how many times will I tell you to help her to do whatever she asked you" mum said and she came out of her room she was fully dressed. "But mum" I was about saying something when she shushed me. "Will you keep quiet, have I not told you not to talk whenever am talking huh" she asked. "Am sorry mum" I said. "For that this is your punishment no school for you today, thank God there is no food in the pot again,wash all the toilet in the house and after that you should come to my shop to collect cup cakes and you must sell everything finish" she said and walked out. No school for me and they have finished the food today again,why is my life like this?? Why is my life different huh. Lidia pov I waited for kareen to come to school but I did not see her. I guess she is not coming again today, something seems strange about her that I don't know. I think she is hiding something from me, anytime I wanted to follow her to get house she always stop me. She looks really poor and tattered even though her beauty still overcome it.... sometimes I wonder how she pays her school fees. Enough about kareen ,let me introduce myself..... my name is lidia am the only child of my parents..... my parents are rich and am 16yrs old. My best friend is kareen and I love her so much even though she is older than me. I don't really understand her.... "The school will be really boring for me today without her" I thought.

Ryan's Pov

"My prince this is the drink" the maids offered me the drink.

"Brother did you really mean what you are talking about" Clara asked.

"Yes am serious dear,am tired of staying here I want to go and enjoy myself" I answered her.

"So when will you be back and where are you thinking of spending your vacation" she asked.

"Well, am going to new york but don't worry I will not spend more than three months" I said.

"Three months is too long i will really miss you" she said.

"Have not even tell Dad and mum,so chill....I don't know if they will agree or not" I said and rolled my eyes.

My sister is really a pain in the ass to me,she can ask too much of questions.

I am already getting tired of her questions already.

My name is Ryan,am a prince from a place in South Korea,am 20yrs old......many people Cherish me because am handsome,I also know that am really handsome many girls drool on me but I don't care.

I am the only son of my father and I have a younger sister called Clara, I really love her even though she is a pain in my a$$ sometimes.

I love my family and I cherish them....we are one happy family.

I am really tired of staying here,so am thinking of going on a vacation.

I have my own company where I work,so I don't have time for myself that is the reason why I want to go on a vacation to enjoy myself for a while and leave the city even though have not concluded.... have not tell my parents about it,is only my sister that knows about it already.

Me and my sister are like 5&6 we are both close,she is the only one that knows anything about me before my parents does.

She is the only friend that I have.

"I will just let my parents knows about my plans tomorrow" I thought.

"Brother since you will be going on a vacation come and take me out" she asked.

I did asif I did not hear her and I concentrated on my phone with my head phone in my ears.

"Ryan please now,I want ice cream" she cried and removed my head phone from my ear.

I know if I did not answer her I will not rest for the rest of the day.

"Ok,ok fine"I said and stood up.

Immediately I said it she jumped and hugged me happily.

"You are the best bro in the world" she said.

I grabbed my car key and we both left the house.

Kareen's pov

After they left the house,I went to the kitchen and checked the pot if I will see something to scrub but to my outmost surprise they poured water in the pot.

Tears streamed out of my eyes and I entered my room to removed my school uniform.

And I wore my clothes,I only have six clothes and they are not even good again but I still managed them.

I left the room and I entered the first toilet and bathroom to wash we have three toilets and bathroom in the house.

I picked the sponge and washed absent mindedly,my mates are in school while am at home.

I don't really know the essence of me going to school because I only go two times in a day the time I attended most is three times....am really tired of my life.

The thought of tonight again, brought tears into my eyes.....there is no how he will not come today again.

"I don't know what came over my dad,he likes me before but since he started attempting to have sex with me and I did not agree he now even hates me more than my mum" I thought.

I washed and washed everything,I checked the time and it was 11 am already.

After I finished washing it,I locked the house,I wanted to wear my slippers and I discovered it has cut.

I became confused,and I don't know what to do,and if I did not reach my mum shop early she will kill me.

I managed and wore it carefully,I reached the road and many things filled my thoughts,my mum shop is very far.it will take me like 1 hour to reach there.

I don't have money for cab because am really tired today,I will just trek it because I usually trek it everyday.

I reached the shop and I saw my mum at the front.

My heart beat immediately I saw her, my heart used to beat rapidly whenever I see my mum and Dad.

I walked towards her.

"Mum good afternoon ma" I greeted her.

She did not answer she just hissed at me.

"Are you just supposed to be coming by this time....see the time that you are coming huh, what are you doing at home??" she asked and slapped me.

No.....thing maaaaa.....

"I have filled the tray with cup cakes, and have been waiting for you since..... just make sure you sell everything finish.If you did not finish selling it, don't come home" she said.

Yes mum.

"Mum" I called and scratched my hair.

No answer......

"Mum am hungry" I spilled it out.

I can't bear the hunger any more,so I have to ask her for food,if is just little I will appreciate her.

"Say it again" she asked.

"I.... said....that am hungry" I stammered.

"So you have the gut to say it in my front you thief, you know what is the hunger that will kill you" she said and kicked me in my belly.

"If you like don't sell the cup cakes finish or my money should not complete you will be a dead meat today" she said and left my presence.

Lidia's pov

The whole class was boring today without kareen ,I really missed her.

She is my only friends in school,many girls wants to be my friend because am very handsome, famous and rich but I did not give them the chance,some says am proud but I don't care.

I got down from my car and I was surprised to see my mum car in the compound.

"Why is she back so early today huh" I thought.

"I twisted her room door happily but she did not notice me,I saw her crying and holding a picture".

"Mum" I called.

Immediately I called her she quickly wiped her tears and kept the picture.

I knew she did not want me to see it that is the reason why she quickly kept it.

"Mum why are you crying"I asked her.

"My baby am not crying" she said and hugged me.

I felt like asking her more question but I kept quiet because I knew she does not want to talk about it.
