Hate Me

?Broken?

I can feel as its heat burns down my throat, through my chest, and into my stomach. I like this sensation... And I feel like a part of the heaviness in my chest earlier has been burnt through.

I ask for another shot and then Another and before I know it, I've had seven shots.

While Edna and Faith have only had two each.

My eyes are lazy, but I feel so energetic and I want to use up all the energy in me so I can get some sleep, but with this much vigor and life in me, I can equally stay awake till tomorrow morning.

I walk to my bag and pull out my ballet wear but without the tutu. Then I take one of Edna's hoods. I'm sure she would not mind.

I feel like dancing but if I play songs here, I would wake my two friends who are on the floor sprawled over each other.

The weather has drastically become cold again. This harmattan weather comes with a lot of surprises.

I am drunk but I still know my friends need cover from the cold. Hence, I grab a bedsheet and place it over them.

I walk to the door and I feel a bit giddy when I take hold of the door handle, but I soon come back to myself and walk out of the room.

I use my key to lock the door from outside as all of us have our keys to the room.

I stagger, drag my feet and crash into things till I reach my destination. Which is the camp display hall.

I have been given a key to the hall so I can go there whenever I want to and no one except the teachers can stop me.

I encounter no one on my way to the hall as it is very late and everyone has most likely gone to bed.

I wonder if Victor can have a sound sleep after what he just did to me or if he is equally not able to sleep and is trying to wear himself out so he can sleep.

I insert the key into the keyhole and open the door. I then drag the key out and stuff it in my pocket as I walk into the hall and slam the door behind me.

The camp display hall is like a cinema. With the same chair arrangements but the only difference is; in place of a big screen, there is a big mirror and the two LG. Flat-screen televisions. Hanging at both sides of the room so people can watch the performance of those on the stage.

I walk down the stairs and straight to the stage.

The room is soundproof so no matter how much noise one makes inside, you can only be heard outside if the door is open.

There are no windows but rather fans and air conditioners.

The only lights left on are those meant to brighten up the stage and I do not turn on the lights as I love the way the rest of the room Is dark.

The darkness gives me some kind of confidence and so I leave the room the way it is.

I climb onto the stage and take off Edna's hood. Revealing my ballet wear which is tightly hugging my body but is still flexible enough for me to perform stunts in.

I sit on the floor, adjust my ballet shoes and do a few stretches.

When I get back on my feet, I sway back and forth as the effect of the alcohol is still strong in my system.

I turn on the MP player and connect my phone.

Like I said earlier, I am not a pretty good dancer but I still try my best.

I choose the song I want to dance to and This Is What You Came For By; Calvin Harris ft Rihanna fills the air.

I love this song and for some reason, it feels like the right song for my current mood and vibe.
