Chapter 6

Melissa's face frowned in total disgust as she pushed the last bag inside the apartment. She sat down on the neatly made bed assuming it would be for her. Her big brown eyes scanned the room, it had a sitting room, kitchen, bed room  and a small space at the corner.

"Great!" She said as she lay down "I have to be struck in this place, where the whole rooms almost appeared in one room" She kicked her shoe off impatiently "Let me assume that small corner over there" she pointed to her left.

"Actually its on your right".

"Ok" she point right "Is the bathroom".

"Actually that is the store".

"What's up with the 'Actually' Dad!".

"The bathroom is at the other end" he pointed at a passage she just noticed "Isn't it nice?".

"Yeah it is" she stood up and began to arrange her things to a corner maybe till her room mate comes before she gave  to properly arrange her things "The key".

"Oh yeah" he handed the key over to her "learn a safe hiding place to keep a spare key, it would help when you lost the first one".

After not much conversation, Nikolas left, he did make it know to her that he would be gone for maybe a long time and won't keep in touch. Normally she would not care, but as she could relate, she was secretly fighting the urge not to cry.

Blinking back the burning tears.

Removing her tight bra wouldn't send her to jail! She squeezed it and forced it into on of her unpacked bags. She changed her tight faded jeans trousers to a loose short that looked more like a boxer, her nipples too refused to stay gentle under her soft silk singlet.

She stood still, standing near the window looking at the street. Everything felt were after 30 minutes her dad left, she had called her friends, changed to something comfortable.

But she felt paranoid.

A smiling picture of a slender girl with her blonde hair tied up in a cute pony and pink bow caught her attention. She  ignored it with a scoff.

"Who cares about another blonde".

Then it hit! She turned back at it, where it was placed on top of the lamp stand near the bed she  felt was hers. She picked up the picture with her shaking hands as she stared at it with mixed emotions, fear, hate, anger and a slight disgust feeling.

"HOLY SMOKE" She froze as blood seemed to dry off her face leaving her almost as white as a dead child "What in the black Mother mary!".

Knock!

The younger version of Karen Stefan smiled broadly and innocently to her. It was like she was slender, spotless and meek, like a saint not compared to the new blonde Karen, all curvy with extremely strong body parts.

The old Karen wore a yellow dress, with pink boots and pink matching bow on her cute pony tail . Her smile looked unique, it felt so real like a princess from Disney world on a visit to one of her fans. On like the new one cruel and evil like CRUELLA DE VIL, always half naked even in her ballet  outfit she would go for the transparent one.

"You gat to be kidding me!".

Knock!!

She looked round the room to see more pictures of the new Karen with Williams. Then with many other people she didn't know and lastly her crews. It obviously looked like Karen had many crew before this set.

Knock!!!.

She startled at the loud knock at the door, she knew rhe person must have been knocking for long as the next knock seemed like the door would fall off soon.

Poor Melissa remain mute, like she was stuck near the window, she quickly begged her stars not to have new nemesis.

Immediately she opened the door, a girl yelled.

"What took you so long!".

"Hi?".

Melissa replied, more like a question. She accepted the strange girl's hand with the most coverup smile she had ever had.

"Oh!" The brown skin stranger began "My name is Ryan Sanders, i'm your next door neighbour".

Oh!

Bet that came out the wrong way as Ryan gave Melissa the most annoying look. Melissa quickly smiled removing her hand from the girl's grip.

"Melissa, a new roommate".

"I see" Ryan Walked pass into the room "If you can't cope with Karen i'm all available".

Melissa smiled, a confused smile of pain and fear. She doesn't even know what she was afraid of, all she knew was that she hate karen and she will have to deal with it for all she cares or she leaves school.

"I brought lemonade".

"That's nice of you. Ryan? ".

"Yep! Ryan Sanders. I can help you unpack".

"No thanks, i just got it, and i don't know where i would be staying". Melissa pointed at the bed she assumed was hers "I think this belongs to her but the other one is occupied".

Ryan smiled as she walked to the couch. She went ahead to the kitchen and brought out two cups.

"Seems like you know your way around". Melissa grinned.

"If leaving here with your one time best friend, who got you into a mess to save her greedy ass and run off with my boyfriend a yes, then i can say yes!".

It was certain Melissa had no idea what Ryan was talking about but she just mouthed a very long 'Oh' so it won't look like she wasn't enjoying the new company.

"So babe" Ryan took the first sip "Tell me more about yourself".

"I really dont know what to say, why don't you start".

"OK" Ryan stood up "I am Ryan Sanders, the only child of my divorce parents the founder of 'Deo company' i'm the new ceo, which i would be taking over next year when i graduate. I am bi and i like you immediately i saw you walk in with you dad".

Melissa's mouth was left open for a while before she smiled. Like, what's up with all the strange people she had been meeting.

"I'm still waiting for your turn".

"Melissa Harts, i just moved in" she chuckled "lets not talk about parents i am antisocial and i dont know what bi means".

Ryan smiled, she moved closer to Melissa as she began to stare deeply into her eyes like searching for something in her boring soul. She smiled like she got what age wanted.

'I love this girl' Ryan thought 'So innocent and natural'.

"Excuse me?" Melissa waved in front of her face "Are you okay?".

"Yeah".

"OK" she stood up "Thanks for the drink".

"The lemonade?". Ryan smiled "Anytime dear". She dismissed the mood with the wave of her hand.

She pulled Ryan down back with the most sweetest smile a girl can offer "Bi mean bisexual" that sounded more like a moan.

"And she say she is 'antisocial' " Molly Walked in followed by Leah and Sam.

Melissa looked surprised like everyone else, she quickly stood up as Ryan stood beside her.

"Ryan, this are my friends Molly, Sam and Leah, guys this is Ryan she leaves next door i assume". She shrug.

Nice to meet you was heard except from Molly, she looked straight at Ryan with the most disgusting look on her face.

"Ryan Sanders, are you done screwing Dickson and his friends?".

"That is not a good way to greet your old lover Monica". Ryan intone as she walked towards the door very slowly "Seems weird we now have something in common" she turned to Melissa "See you around, New friend".

Melissa stood still she the watch the rest girls stare daggers at Ryan. She noticed Ryan's ceil phone as she quickly hid it under the couch, she couldn't dare cause more commotion by rushing to the new supposed enemy, she rather look for her tomorrow.

"Relax Molly" Leah said as she hopped on the couch like she was been pushed.

Melissa cringe, the idea of returning the phone with a broken screen made her want to yell, like how on earth could she afford a new iPhone 12 or change the screen when she still don't know how to pay the next month dept.

"Molly ?" She said "I am so sorry, if i knew you had history with her i won't have allowed her walk in".

"Its not your fault " Sam said as she joined Leah on the same couch!

Fuck! someone shot me!!! Not the same chair.

"Come sit Melissa" Sam said "i trust Molly would recover".

"Or don't we want to talk about something else?" Leah wiggle her eyebrows "Ryan is not a problem, as we all know, Mel have no problem with bisexual, i can bet with my father's head that she have never had sex".

Like magic Molly burst into laughter, she fell on Sam and Leah on the couch , she laughed until her mascara became wet and made her look horrible.

"That's not fair guys". Melissa whispered "If i know how to have sex i would have done it years ago".

Too bad, the rest girls joined Molly in laughing as the poor red head stood confused.

"No body teaches anyone how to have sex Melissa" Sam managed to say still laughing "Its something both party agreed to do except you are raped".

"That sounds bad" Melissa smiled as she took the bottle if lemonade to the kitchen "I do watch porn, get supper horny like a dog but end up rubbing my uhm  with my finger".

"Is uhm even a word?" Leah fell to the ground hard "ouch! That hurts!".

"You are impossible Melissa Harts". Molly stood up "That's why i love you".

She walked to the kitchen to find many empty packs of smoothie and juice, she also noticed the lemonade and frown.

"Seems weird. We have nothing to celebrate with except the lemonade from my ex friend". She shouted from the kitchen.

"What do we have over there?" Sam yelled.

"Are you kidding me? I just said Ryan's lemonade, few empty packs of smoothie and fruit juice, many rotten leftovers especially pizza and Chinese food, half eaten donuts" she paused "Holy crap! Used condoms ! You roommate is impossible Melissa".

"That's the point" Melissa sounded disappointed "Its Karen".
