DaughterZion...Nice Moniker. Storyline...cool My personal observation, From your narration,ths story is about a teenage girl Lillian,I think you over used your adjectives by describing her as an hour glass.this girl is just in Ss1,she's probably 13 or 14 or just about to attain pubery.She shouldn't even be crushing on someone talk more of falling in love. And the Leo character,I'm tryng hard to form his image in my head,these are rich kids you know,most of them are ajebutter,and I'm sure he'll be of same age bracket wth Lily,so where did he come about his deep baritone tone. You're describing those two mentioned characters like adult,but they're not.Because with what you're saying,those two would end up having sex soon.I just want you to watch the moral you're passing across to others.SS1 students shouldn't be dating talk more of falling in love,there're other young people reading your story,I'm sure you don't want them thinking about relationship now. There was a passage you described when Mrs dan brought Lilian to sch,and while Lilian was waiting,those two girls who walked by chatting..their conversation is not fit for young girls from rich home. And this their big expensive school,why are the teachers still making use of chalkboard.Pls correct that. Above all,you have a good story here,nice beginning,take time to create good and well described scenes,bring in suspence and take to corrections and I'm envisaging a great ending for this piece.

Exams were over and the students were told to check their results online giving them scratch cards and their numbers. Lilian decided to check hers on a sunday when her parents will be home. On the 14th of december being a sunday she went to the cyber cafe after service to check her results. She was nervous and she prayed to God for help. After what seemed like ages the result came out and guess what! She did very well for a start. She scored 5th out of 22 students. "Mum dad come see my results she shouted as she ran to her parents room. She was suprised to see her mum's face swollen which showed she had been cry and dad's once handsome face angry. She was confused. What was wrong. "Lilian you are going to port harcourt to live with your aunty and you will stay there till your waec" her dad said angrily and stormed out of the room. Lilian was shocked. She looked at her mum who was still crying. "mum whats wrong?" concern written all over her face. "listen to your father Lilian. You will have to go to port so as to find how life is and learn to live without your parents" her mum said in a teary voice and walked away leaving Lilian dazed. Lilian walked to her room slowly as she pondered over the little play her parents exhibited. She had lots of unanswered questions. Why is mum crying? Why is dad angry? And most important of all why are they sending her to go live with her aunt. She thought about her friends in school. She made quite a lot for he beauty and brilliance then she thought about Leo. They had only talked to each other once and that was by mistake she could remember when she mistakenly bumped into him and her books fell down. "am sorry" she had said nervously. Leo simply looked at her "watch out next time" he said and walked away ignoring her apology. She thought of Mara and jude. She was going to miss them for they were great friends. Jude was her classmate and also a friend of Leo, bu whenever Leo saw both of the chatting he ignored them as if he knew them not....... Lilian could had continued thinking if sleep had not come. 3 Likes 1 Share |

Lilian tried to ask her parents what the matter was but they were adamant. They told her all was well but Lilian could not be fooled nevertheless, she kept cool to the relief of her parents. They arranged for her journey and within two weeks, Lilian was in portharcourt. Aunty becky was Lilian's paternal aunty and was the last born in her family. She just got married a year before lilian came to a medical doctor while she worked as a secretary in a company. On arrival, Lilian took mental note of the apartment. It was a very beautiful bungalow with flowers planted around its walls and had its background colour as brown while its pillars were painted yellow. When she got inside, she saw the palour was tastifully furnished to modern taste. Her aunty really had taste. "Welcome sweet niece. Come let me take you to your room" aunty becky said half dragging Lilian to a room. "make yourself at home while i bring you something to eat" aunty becky said leaving lilian to unpack. Lilian looked around her. The room was painted blue with a bed at the far end of the room. She had to admit she loved the room. She unpacked and decided to log into facebook to see if her friends were online. She noticed she had a friend request and clickedm to see who it was. She was shocked, it was Leo David! 3 Likes 1 Share |

"When she was 'true' .".............should be 'through',...I.e 'when she was through'. "The 'sky blued' wall",............should be"The sky-blue wall" "Their richly 'stripped' red skirt",...............stripped is to be naked,...take note 'striped' as in 'stripe' has only one 'p'. "You have beign."............did you mean 'been'?. "She 'scored' 5th out of 22 students."............you can't score '5th' out of 22 pupils/students but can only 'come out' or 'came out' (as in past tense) 5th or 'came 5th' in the class of 22 'students'(not necessarily relevant). "She just got married a year before lilian came to a medical doctor while she worked as a secretary in a company.?",...................I got confused here if you do like to elaborate. All round,..........nice story you got,I read through when I wasn't really feeling like reading cause it's late,so I had to omit or overlook some other errors...........all I can say is,calm down dear,don't rush yourself or the story,proof-read before posting,it would do you a lot of good.
