KILLING HELEN

Helen was a typical description of an intelligent and goal-setter girl. She hated bullies and she hated to be bullied and this always got her in trouble. At age 12 she was already in junior high school and at age 14 she was already through with high school. Helen had gotten herself lots of awards to keep her in school.Her parents were from Yale state, not rich but well-to-do. While her dad was a contractor, her mum was a civil servant. Helen had siblings, she was the third out of four. Paul, Jason, and Catherine. Catherine was the first, followed by Paul and Jason came after Helen. But none were like Helen. Today was Cathy's wedding day, and Helen was worst in regards to fashion. Tired of checking through her wardrobe, she decided to wear a Jean and a big top. She heard steps behind her but was focused on her outfits. "No Helen, you are not wearing that on my day", Cathy said as she entered her baby sister's room. "Aww, Sister you know I hate gowns", Helen replied immediately befor

Helen intentionally did not kill Eddy. It had been a week now since she confronted Eddy with his side chick. She was hurt and knew Eddy deserved more than a broken head, but the highest she could do was the scar she gave to him. She heard Eddy had run off with the car she bought for him. She refused to go out since then and ate only when her friends came around. Her friends now took duty in checking up on her. If Robbin came today, the next day was Laycon visiting. They kept on reminding her about their planned picnic the next month to ease her pains. She was relaxed each moment she thought of her private picnic with her friends. Helen though reduced drastically in weight, her friends remained her tonic and drive towards life. Her parents had tried making her happy but their plans never worked for her. She could hear Charles's voice from downstairs, she wondered what he was doing in her house so early. "Hello from the other side", Charles teased Helen as he walked into her room. "Ho

"What happened to him?""Am on my, which hospital?"She immediately scribbled something down with the pen and paper she had brought out from her back.Helen was in total awe hearing about what happened to Charles, she had to round up her gymnastics before going to the hospital. She was absent-minded throughout the remaining workout. Getting herself back to normal was not at all easy since her breakup with Eddy, her sister though married was more of a help to her. Her instructor in the gymnasium seemed to be good on the part of the distraction."What is wrong" The masculine voice came from behind and was so close to her as she turned to look at him, she could feel his breath and could smell his sweat which was that vanilla scent She was taken unawares and didn't notice his approach, she wondered if he was sent to disturb her life to leave this world. His closeness to her got her shaky and perturbed, she hated that feeling. "Am perfectly fine, thank you" She needed the pretense, the l

The sun on most Saturdays was not as high as today, it was as if she should go to do her workout in a bikini, she could not even go for her jogging else the sun would tear off her skin. She took up her keys and dashed off, it had been a long she drove to the gymnasium.Parking outside was not at all stressful, going to an appointment early was her watchword. Before she could reach for the door, a stronger hand brushed her hand and opened the door, bowing his head in a gesture for her to enter. She was still trying to know who he was, he raised his head that minute, and they could feel the tension in the atmosphere, especially Helen who was taken unawares."Ummmmm...sorry, I didn't mean to bump into you again""I accept it's my fault""Don't tell me you are stalking me" Helen defensively stated trying as much as possible to throw away her soft spot."Now we are talking about stalking, can I ask you out""No""Come on, it's nothing, just wanna know you more", Michael explained feigning

"How did you know I stay here?" She asked in a sleepy voice."Let me say you got a stalker". Michael responded the moment he stopped the car. He couldn't tell her he had known where she stayed since they bumped into each other."But this isn't your house". She looked at him with a questionable gaze while he climbed out to open her side of the door."I know but I want your comfort". He gave her a warm smile. With her drunken state, he would rather walk home on foot than take advantage of her. She had weight more than he expected, he thought to himself as he lifted her into the house.He couldn't help but pause in astonishment at the beauty of her house, he had acknowledged the fact that she was one with good taste. He didn't know where her room was, and with his leg, he kicked the door closed."My room is by the right". She responded like she read his mind, her voice was low as she felt weak.He hurriedly followed her direction, the passage which led to her room was carefully packed wi
