Together Forever
New beginnings
People say nothing last forever, I didn't believe such phrase
My family and I relocated from Johannesburg, South Africa to Ontario, Canada. That was the worst day of my life
People might say we moved further into greener pastures, but for me, it was torture.
I left a place I had known throughout my life, left my friends and the girl I love
And the worst part was that my dad didn't tell us we were moving out earlier, so I didn't have the time to tell them
I promised to be with her forever and I broke it
Well, I'm sure karma's going to hit back right
By the time we moved over to Canada, my dad had already bought a house
For one month, I stayed at home no school, no friends just my siblings
Until I was enrolled into Ontario High School, which is where my story starts
Josh is sleeping peacefully on an early Monday morning, when suddenly, he is awakened by a loud noise
Music blasting from a speaker
Josh (M.C)
*Rubbing his sleepy eyes*
Josh (M.C)
The hell *says in a sleepy tone*
Josh (M.C)
*Looks at the director where the song is coming from*
Josh (M.C)
*Sees his brother*
Josh (M.C)
Ahh common bro *says in a tired tone* its just 6 in the morning and I have school today
Josh (M.C)
And I don't want to look tired on my first day at school *says in frustration*
David (M.Cs brother)
*increases the volume of the speaker*
That's my elder brother David, he's an annoying old brat that feels he can disturb me anytime he wants without repercussions
He might be the hot elder brother type that gets any girl he wants, but he's just an annoying, dumb, naive, self-centered, selfish person I've ever met.
David (M.Cs brother)
Get up from your bed bro, it's too late for you to still be asleep *says without care*
Josh (M.C)
*groans in frustration*
Josh (M.C)
School is by 8:30, so I have to sleep till around 7:30
David (M.Cs brother)
*looks at Josh with an intimidating look*
Josh (M.C)
*notices the look* Fine
He gets up from the bed and starts preparing for school
Josh (M.C)
*Murmuring* I'm old enough not to allow people tell me what to when I don't to *hiss*
Before heading out to school, Celine calls him
Celine (M.Cs sister)
Josh, you are about leaving?
Josh (M.C)
Yes, sister Celine *says calmly*
Celine (M.Cs sister)
okay, come and take this
Celine (M.Cs sister)
*Gives him 150 Canadian dollars*
Josh (M.C)
*Looks at it with surprise*
Celine (M.Cs sister)
You don't want? *asks with a confused tone*
Josh (M.C)
*comes back to reality* hmm, no no I want it all *quickly grabs the money*
Josh (M.C)
*leans to peck her* I love you
Celine (M.Cs sister)
*Pecks him back* love you too
Celine (M.Cs sister)
And take care on your first day
Josh (M.C)
I will *smiles*
Celine (M.Cs sister)
And find some bitches *shouts jokingly*
Josh (M.C)
*looks at her perplexed* umm sure, I'll try
He leaves with his dad for school
Alan (M.Cs father)
You ready for school?
Alan (M.Cs father)
Okay, let's go
They arrive at the school, where he's dropped off by his dad
Alan (M.Cs father)
Take care my son
Don't get into any trouble on your first day okay
Josh (M.C)
Sure *in a tamed tone*
He arrives in class and takes a seat beside another boy
Josh (M.C)
*Looks at him* hey
Josh (M.C)
*This dude is flipping hot*
Max
*Snaps his finger* you lost
Josh (M.C)
*jerks* oh sorry it's just your looks
Max
My looks *asks curiously* what happened, did I miss a spot *touches his face concerned*
Josh (M.C)
*Laughs* no silly, you look good
Max
Ohh, I know right *says with pride* but nobody tells me that
Josh (M.C)
Joshua, but call me Josh for short
Max
Maxwell, but call me Max for short too *smiles*
Max
This is your first day at school right?
Josh (M.C)
Yeah, I moved here about a month ago from South Africa
Max
I hope you will enjoy your time here in school
Josh (M.C)
*sighs* I hope also
Classes go on till the end
Josh (M.C)
Classes are over already?
Josh (M.C)
*packs his things*
Max
Yup, so how are you going home?
Josh (M.C)
*thinks* I don't know really
Max
Maybe I can drop you, I have a car
Josh (M.C)
Sure, that'll be nice *says in appreciation*
They both leave school in Max car as he goes to Josh home
Max
*Looks at Josh* Do you have friends here in Canada?
Josh (M.C)
Nope, but I had many in S.A
Max
It must have sucked leaving them behind
Josh (M.C)
Yes it did..... Alot *says in a sad tone*
Josh (M.C)
I left the girl I loved, after I had promised to be with her forever *says in disappointment*
Max
That's why it's not good to keep promises with people, you might not know what the future holds. It might decide to change the person's mind, make the person go, or worse end their life
Max
That's why I don't normally keep promises
Josh (M.C)
"looks at him* I definitely learnt that the hard way
Josh (M.C)
But its all cool though
They arrive at Josh's house
Josh (M.C)
Okay we've arrived
Max
*looks at his house with amazement* Damn bro, your house is a 10 out of 10 *laughs*
Josh (M.C)
Yeah, you are free to come over anytime *smiles*
Josh (M.C)
Yeah bro *comes down from the car*
Josh (M.C)
And thanks for the ride, Max
Max
No problem Josh *smiles*
Josh (M.C)
See you tomorrow
Josh watches as Max slowly drives away and out of sight
I hope y'all enjoyed my new story 🫣
Ch.2
It has been one week since I met Max in school and I must admit, we have gotten close
And I must say, it's crazy how he doesn't really have a girl in his life
Don't get me wrong, he is very good when it comes to talking with girls, but he doesn't want a relationship
Whenever I ask why he doesn't want one, he doesn't answer the question or he will just shake his head
In school, Geography class
Josh (M.C)
*whispers* This class is boring as hell bro
Max
*whispers back* I know right *rest his head on his hands*
Josh (M.C)
*lays his head on the table in frustration* When is this torture going to end bro
Josh (M.C)
I can't take it anymore
Max
You have to hold on bro, we have just two minutes left and the torture will be over *says in an assuring tone*
Although he was right about us having just two minutes till the lecture ended, it still felt like an hour to me
Josh (M.C)
*To Max* So where are we going today *asks excitedly*
Max
*Thinks* Hmm, I'm not sure
Max
The mall? *asks in uncertainty*
Max
I don't have money though
Josh (M.C)
You don't have money, but you want to go to the mall
Josh (M.C)
What do you want to do, shoplift *says in a mocking tone and laughs*
Max
*smiles* You funny bro, really funny
Max
I mean I have 10 dollars so!, I can buy something you know
Josh (M.C)
*shakes his head* Dunno, it's your choice bro
They continue talking as they leave school and go home
Two girls are seen in a house, deeply concentrated in the activity they are doing
Amelia
Elaine be careful *tells her in a concerned tone*
Elaine
I know, I know, don't freaking rush me girl *she says in a frustrated tone*
*Tension rises in the room*
Amelia
Come on, come on *says with a worried look*
Elaine
I'm almost there *in a tensed voice*
Suddenly the building block, they were constructing and had finished collapsed
Amelia
Nooooooooooo *shouts in a sad tone*
Elaine
I almost completed it, damn *says in a frustrated tone*
Amelia
You? *asks in an amused tone*
Elaine
Yeah, the only thing you did was to cheerlead for me, literally until you made me tensed during the final part
Amelia
That's still helping girl *says in defense*
Amelia
*sits beside her* What an activity to while away time
Elaine
I know right *taps her head* I'm freaking tired right now
Elaine
