Chapter One

Kilahi arrived home all drenched and shivering, she knocked on the door but no one answered, after waiting for about five minutes, her cousin finally opened up. An annoying laughter escaped his lips on seeing how drenched she was.  "What happened to you?" He asked and she  squeezed her way through the opened the door.

"What happened to you?" He asked shutting the door and she exhaled dropping her shoe and hand bag on the floor then she sat on the couch angrily. "I walked in the rain, what do it look like?"

"Wanna talk about it?" He asked motioning towards her and she looked away.

"I guess the rest are still at the party. You know you could have waited for the party to end right?" He asked and she rolled her eyes. "Well the situation called for me to leave"

Terdoo sat close to her then he wrapped his arms across her shoulder. "Wanna talk about it? Terdoo is here for you" "How's school? I never knew you'll be coming back home" "I told Mom that I'll be coming back to get foodstuffs. She left a spare key for me"

"Your foodstuff has finished so fast?"

"Trust me dear, being the Papa in the school fellowship comes with it's own sacrifices and i'm paying for it." "Well during my time in school...."

Terdoo laughed, he knew exactly what she was doing, she was trying to avoid the topic. "Nice try but I'm still here and ready to hear why you left the party and walked all the way down here in the rain."

Kilahi scoffed, "I didn't walk all the way, stop exaggerating" "Your clothes are obviously still wet" he snapped and tears trickled down her eyes as the dreadful memory the photographer crossed her mind.  "It's nothing important" "Thank God I'm in the mood to listen to unimportant things" "Don't insist jhoor"

"I insist"

"So......" she trailed off now wiping her tears off, "This photographer said i was spoiling the picture. The guy told me he'll capture me specially as the special human that i am." "Wow.... that's new and creative" he teased and she chuckled covering her lips then she punched him in the stomach.

"Ouch" he groaned busting into laughter. "He was really mean"

"As in ehn! Just when i thought i've heard all the mean comment in this world. Voila! This one came with another one" "That guy deserves to be slapped with his own camera"

Kilahi laughed out loud this time then she busted into tears, "It's really not my fault that I'm ugly or that i don't have a nice smile. I didn't make myself" "Kilahi!" He muttered and she leaned against his shoulder sobbing loudly.

"Shhhhhh. He doesn't deserve the tears dear, you're uniquely created, a beautiful creature of God. The guy is right about one thing, you're a special human being and no one can take that from you. Pride in that, don't make an ordinary photographer make you cry. You're better than this!"
