All Chapters of The Falling. (Book 1): Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

I wake up alone on the bed with the spot next to me still warm, meaning he just got out of bed. I get off the bed walking to the bathroom, I open it without knocking rubbing the sleep from my eyes."Geez Rina! Have you never heard of knocking!?" I looked at the source of the shouting and realize I just walked into Zuso, I stare at both of them in disbelief of what I'm seeing...I should have knocked.I get out the bathroom laughing and hear them cursing at me, I walk into the kitchen and see K standing there with bestie, they're both shirtless and it's so hot in here."Don't you guys have shirts?" I asked going for the coffee machine...why am I even making coffee? I don't like it at all!"We do, but you have to feast on this every morning." Bestie motioned to their godly bodies and I rolled my eyes at him."No thank you bestie, but I prefer food thank you very much.""Good morning Foxie.""Hey, how'd you sleep?""Great." he show

I open the door without even asking who it is, I'm sure Rina is rolling her eyes at me... I know for sure I'm going to receive some sort of lecturing about how I would bite her head off for opening the door without asking who it is... now  I wish I had asked who it is. I meet my father's grey eyes...Jerome got his eyes."Khalil.""Father.""I'm here too brother, oh and mother." He popped his head behind my dads huge built."I noticed." "Well, are you going to invite us in son?" My father asked. I moved away from the door gesturing for them to enter, and they got in. Esther stood for a second and looked at Rina and Rina looked back at her."Have you never heard of a clothing item named pants?" Esther asked her."Have you never been comfortable in your own home?" Rina asked back."No, only luxury.""That explains it.""Oh, my sister, how I've missed you." Jerome said hugging Rina way too tight and too lon

As I was sitting in my room I couldn't help but smile at the fact K's whole family is here. I wonder what happened in that family that broke them apart, and whatever it is I hope that they can still fix it.K still has both his parents present in his life and annoying brother! As for me I only have my mother and Mr S. My father left when I was only six years old and stayed away from us since then. I remember it bothering me for so long but after Mr S met my mother...which was kind of late in my life, but I still appreciate his presence in it right now.I have half-sisters... I don't know how many because we don't talk. Who knows, I might even have brothers. But returning to the subject at hand, K can still make amends with his family.I think back to the time when I was still in primary, and we would have those bring your parent's thing and fathers day and sometimes I would sit by the waiting room and watch fathers pick up their children.It was heartbrea

Nita: Fuck me!? You running around after that 'K' looking so desperate! Try some self-respect bitch.Ntombi: Ni! Instead of making things worse work things out, tell her what's going on.Nita: It's not as if she'll listen to me. Everything has to be about her and her only. Whatever involves her she will listen with her ears perked up like a dog. Zeigh: That's not true and you know it. She is a great listener and she puts aside her problems just to help you out all the time! She isn't selfish at all.Una: Bro. Spitting facts! She's probably the only one who cares the most out of all of us here. Who else would ignore their problems for yours?Nita: Shit don't matter guys! She still isn't here.Ntombi: Bro she's at school!Zeigh: Why you being like this?Una: Don't bring your problem

I'm still standing in the kitchen overthinking whether I should follow him to his room or what, but it seems as if he needs some time alone, but does he need to be alone?"WHY WON'T THEY JUST LEAVE ME ALONE!" I heard something crashing on the wall and a whole lot of shouting. So this is how he is when he is upset. I decide to go and open his door and lean on it crossing my arms over my chest watching him as he smashes things and bang his fists on the wall, it gets really bloody right now."Get out!" he spat out not looking at me for more than a second. All I do is stare at him and watch as he continues with his breakdown. "Rina I don't have time for you, get out of my room now!""I didn't ask for your time, Khalil. I came to check up on you." I shrugged wanting to look like I don't care but the truth is I do."I don't want you here! Leave me alone. I don't need you. I don't need anyone.""Is it?""Stop trying to be my mom! I don

Yeah, I really fucked up this time. Just like Jerome said, I eventually fuck everything up. It's in my nature. I fucked my own life before it even began. My mom doesn't want me, my father pushing me into something that I don't want and my own brother wanting to destroy me and taking everything of mine. Now Rina won't even look at me.But I can't just leave it at that, I need her to understand that I was wrong and being foolish and she was the closest host to take all of my shit. Why the hell would I tell her to take off her shorts and show me a good time? I even told her the only thing I want from her is to open those legs. I'm a fucking idiot that's for sure.I walk to her door and open her door peeking inside, she's already sleeping. She doesn't look peaceful as she normally does, she looks disturbed and worried. Why didn't I think it through before I yelled at her and insulted her? I basically said she's only good for sex. And that's not true at all, she's good for

"If we can't trust!The love in us!There'll be no looking backNo looking back, No!" Why is there so much noise? Why is she making so much noise and why the hell is this music so loud? I groan rubbing my eyes knowing this is how Rina gets over her anger, her blasting her music and dancing to it like a crazy person.She walks into the kitchen singing, more like shouting the song. "If we falling in loveWe falling in loveThere'll be nothing aboveAnd I won't give you up.No I won't give you upIf we falling in love""Good morning Foxie." She looked at me and smiles, she's smiling which means she woke up in a great mood and she must have forgiven me."Hey. How'd you sleep?" She asked still smiling at me."Uhm okay...what about you? You seem to be in a great mood.""I slept okay, a

As I'm sitting on my bed listening to my music I realize that I was extra mean to K. That was totally unnecessary, and dumb. Maybe not, that was hilarious! I can't stop laughing at the pictures.The removal of eyebrows was Rabo's idea, I only thought of the word and dying his hair green. It's totally unfair that I'm being blamed for it, but I promised bestie I wouldn't rat him out. I think it's about time I fix things with all my friends. I miss talking to Nita and playing around with K. So I decide to call Nita, I hope she answers.Ni-"What do you want?""I want to fix things.""What, K isn't giving you enough attention?""That's not what it is No. I miss you.""Is that supposed to fix this?""What is it you want from me? What is it that I've done that made you feel so neglected an

I can't get the image of her one tear slipping from her eye out of my head. And how she roughly wiped it as if it never fell. The broken smile she gave me when she said I never noticed she's alone.Perhaps I never understood because she has so many people in her life but she still feels alone. She looks happy to everyone, even me sometimes but you never know when she's not feeling okay until she actually shows it.Today she lost control, I'm still shaken. She actually screamed at me! And asked me not to touch her, actually commanded me not to. I freaked out! I was going to ask her and I freaked out. I had everything planned but the unexpected statement saying that we should just be roommates threw me off track and I replied in defence mode.I stare at the necklace in my hand, looking at the pendants. The Malachite stone behind the Scorpio. What she's been wanting for the longest time but not knowing where to find them.I was going to ask her to be mine to

I wake up on the floor and my neck fucking hurts so does my back. I must have fallen asleep on the floor while I was crying. It's really quiet here, is he still sleeping or what? I check the time and it's eleven o'clock in the morning. I already slept through half the day. Crying makes you exhausted.I get up from the floor going to take a shower, I feel disgusting. I go to the bathroom and see that face wash I pranked K with and smile, I throw it away before opening the water in the shower. Once it's hot enough I get in and just stand underneath the running water, soothing hot water.Once I'm done with that, I dry my hair and plait it to prevent it from tangling. Natural hair is such a bitch. A beautiful bitch with hard work. I get out of the bathroom to go get dressed and I still don't hear anything in the apartment. It's as quiet as a cemetery.I get dressed in a long shirt and tights walking out to the kitchen to eat cereal. I take out the bowl and milk putt
