Chapter 1
Niharika
"Im gonna miss you so much."
My best friend Brandon said hugging me and placing a kiss on my cheeks.
"Call or text me once you land"
"Of course"
I took a look of my apartment one last time and left for the airport.
I never wanted to visit Russia again but here we are, wherever i think my problems have creased, something disastrous happens and leaves making my whole life like a city after a powerful tornado. Soon i reached the airport, did all the checkings and settled on my seat.
I looked out of my window to see the view but my mind went to the darkest phase of my life which i never wanted to remember.
"Go hide inside the closet, NOW!" My 9 years old body shivering by hearing the loud knocks on the door.
"Open the dammm door you b*tch!" I ran and hid in the closet as mom opened the door. That person was my dad. drunk.
"Where is she? Huh...i told you to kill her when she was born, now see what she has done."
He slapped my mom with so much force, her beautiful light brown skin got purple.
"I wanted a son but your pathetic womb gave birth to dumb daughter!, look was she scored in her exam, just 40%!"
"Sh-she will Do better next time, please forgive her" . The next 1 hour was the most haunting hour. Seeing my mother getting beaten from the closet was not the first time.
Me scoring 40% was a very big issue for my dad(he doesn't deserve to be called dad)
After this incident, i topped every year, not because i wanted to but for my mom. My eyelashes filled with water by now. I better fell asleep.
***flight landed in Russia***
"How was the flight babe?" Brandon asked in his funky tone.
"Yeah the flight was very comfortable"
"Well I'm sure you are having a bad time carrying that suitcase" Brandon said while laughing.
"Which suitcase?...ahh the one with my books, well yeah its very heavy" yeah because its filled with 47 books, still only 25% of my house library.
"While you were gone, i thought to read one of your books and now i understand why you blush so much all the time" Brandon said. "Josh is just so hot, of course he'll make anyone jump a cliff for him"
Definitely lights out.
"So he's hotter than me?" Someone from the back said. Surely it's Michael. Brandon's boyfriend.
"No babe, ahh Niharika I'll call you later" Brandon cut the call, i took a deep breath and headed to the cab i booked,gave driver the address and started preparing myself for the meet up.
