RED DIARY: LOVE DIARY

S1/E2


Daro has earphones on; she’s sitting at her desk, doing some homework while her brother Julius is lying on her bed playing a game on his android tablet. There’s a knock on Daro’s door, then another knock, which Daro doesn’t hear, her father Mike enters her room and says to Julius “your mum is calling you son, its bed time”, “ok daddy” Julius replies and gives his father a hug. Mike watches his son walk out of the room, then he walks to Daro and places a hand on her shoulder, she startled, she takes off her earphones and stares at her dad with a frown on her face then turns around and continues her assignment. Standing behind her, Mike says “what assignment are you doing?”, “chemistry” Daro replied coldly. “How is it going” Mike asks, “fine” Daro replies dryly, she was still very upset and her countenance said it all. “Look Daro, are you going to continue giving me attitude or do you want to know the answers to the questions you asked during dinner?”, her father asked calmly, she turns around and says “I am sorry daddy”, she looks at her father’s hand “what is that book you are holding in your hands?”, “this is your mum’s diary she kept while she was in the university, if she finds out I gave this you, she’s going to kill me. All the answers you seek are in this diary. Let this be our secret, ok?”, Mike says as he hands over a red diary to Daro, “ok daddy” she replies. She stands up and gives her father a hug, “I love you daddy”, “I love you too baby, don’t be up too late, ok”¸ “ok daddy”. Mike exits Daro’s room. Daro places the diary above her notebooks and stares at it for a while, it looks and feels a little old, smelled a little funny too. Chemistry is the farthest thing on her mind right now, her heart beats just a little louder, “all the answers you seek are in the diary” her father had said. Did she really want to know what was written in the diary, it felt the walls were closing in on her, her room was getting smaller, the claustrophobia was setting in, she began to panic, “get a grip Daro, get a grip Daro, calm down Daro. Daro be calm” she says to herself, then the opens the first page of the diary slowly and rather dramatically, it felt like slow motion in a thriller movie, on the first page of the diary she read the words
                                                            To you E,
The one I live for, the one I would die for. You are my whole world. My love for you is eternal, it’s deeper than the oceans and higher than the heavens. Happy birthday baby
                                                                                                                Your love,
                                                                                                                K
Daro’s eyes bulges as she reads the words. Who is K? To be continued…
