THE TWILIGHT DRIFT

Chapter 1: Edward's P.O.V

Twilight Drift

I never know that life could be so cruel;uhm;I think I should start with that,.... How can life be so cruel,good, ambitious, sad and amazing. It all started when I was in my early teens,...I am Edward Collins by name,we are four in number in my family;My parents,my sister and I.

I was looking outside the window from the car, staring at the people at the bus station, enjoying everything I see on my way to school, my sister was busy with her project,not minding me;I sigh and whine down the car window,the breeze hit my face making my body to feel at ease and I smiled.

The car halted at the school gate and I and my sister alighted from the car and the my driver drive to the parking lot to wait for us till we close from school.

In short,I am from a rich family,I was born with a silver spoon, but I always act cozy, people never really know my background those who are closer to me.

"Hey,xup bro?, How are you doing?". Liam greeted me stylishly, and I roll my eyes and pushed him aside and I cat walked into the class while Liam trail behind me,..... dragging his feet.

I have this thing,i mean the good looks,a resounding voice,a well shaped lips,a bronze eyes;I looked like a demigod,every girls drool at me but I was too holy,too holy,to be in such a relationship.

I never think of having any girlfriend, just focusing on my studies and aiming one thing,....to become the best music composer and the best musician in the whole city of Barcelona.

"Bro, why are you like that?,you are not like that or is it mood swing"Liam asked me.

"Nothing, I'm just not doing good, just feeling a little tired". I replied.

"But at least you should have tell me when I greeted you minutes ago ". Liam harangue and looking a bit upset.

"Ok, I'm sorry,I'm sure that's what you want to hear, right ". I answered Liam back, but with guilt that I've offended my best friend.

Liam Drey is my friend,my best friend rather,he is a brother to me,he always think of me first before anything even before himself. He is also from a rich family. He is my brother.

Liam is always after anything that is under skirt. He is an handsome guy and I really love Liam because I can't afford to lose a friend like him. He has always been in support of me, with everything I laid my hands on.

I was at the amusement park, sitting alone on the dark ride,..... reading alone,then suddenly a stone flew past my ear and fell on the ground in front of me,I looked back but I did not see anyone.

I concentrated on my book again,then the next stone that came towards me,gave me a slight cut on my cheek , making me to whince in pain.

I stood up, packed my books and placed it gently in my bag and zipped it up ,then placed it on my back and strode hurriedly away from the place and bump into some group of boys,... around my age. I looked up and receive an heavy punch on my face,my eyes rolled, another guy slapped me across the face,I start to convulse and they all started giving me a beating;I am someone who doesn't like stress,I am a weakling.

My dad has always tell me to join the judo and the athletic club, but I always turned him down. Another guy try to kick me in the face when Liam came into view and punch one in the face,the guy was about to fall when Liam grabbed his hands dragging him forward with force swaying him to one side and give another guy kick in the stomach in the same process.

The rest of them flinched,I could see fear written all over their face. Then I stood up and grab a stone and fired it at all of them, they all took to their heels without looking back..

I sighed,"Thank you".I said to Liam stretching my hand for an handshake.

"It's my pleasure". Liam replied claiming my hand,."I am LIAM DREY by name and you're?". Liam asked .

"EDWARD COLLINS ".I said smiling but suddenly I see a smile on Liam's face.

"Wait,are you...?,you a-r-e....?um ,I mean you're Mr. Eduardo's son". Liam stuttered, looking amazed.

"Yes,I am?". I replied.

"I can't believe I saved the billionaire son's today, with this I can get a brand new G-wagon, and also a gold for the help,... I really can't believe it?". Liam said, dancing in a funny way.

I only smiled at his joke,ever since then Liam and I have been best of friends.

Back to present; I went toward Liam when the class is already out for a break.

"Let's go have lunch,I'm hungry". Edward said and tapped the table gently.

"Sure, just about to tell you the same thing". Liam said and stood up and dipped his hands into his pocket,.....then both of us drag our feet to the cafeteria, that's what we both like doing,..... dragging our feet like morons..

COLLINS CASTLE

During dinner,at the dining,we were all eating silently, the cutleries were the only things making sounds. My dad broke the silence by clearing his throat.

"Uhm ,Eddy, Emmy". My dad called.

"Sir, Sir"Emily and I answered chorously .

"I want to tell you both that your mom and I are going for a business in the states tomorrow, and it's going to be for two months, and I want you to take care of Emily". My dad said to me and glanced at Emily,..... You guys must not fight,we take too long, immediately everything is taken care of ,we are coming back to you both right away". My dad said to my sister and I.

"The guards have been on ground to make the security more tight, and you have to go to school or anywhere with guards to school everyday.". My mum chipped in.

" But isn't this too early,you should perhaps stay for some days ". Emily said looking tensed.

" So that means that you won't be here till August, there's nothing I have to say to all you've said than, both of us will be good and okay, after all it would help us to be more matured and knowledgeable ".....l paused, dropping the fork and knife and grab the Glass of water and take a sip and continue speaking,...."Erhm, you have me,I would protect my sister no matter the circumstances, and both of us will stay strong to welcome you back from your trip. I assure you that?". I smiled at Emily and sigh and then stood up and turned to leave for my room.

~~SAME NIGHT ~~

I was lying on my bed, just rolling from the left to the right, not able to get a single sleep,I grabbed my phone which was lying on the shelf beside my king-sized bed and switch it on and my phone buzzed,...a message just popped on almost immediately and then I........
