Michelle's POV
I had sent Lucas a message on WhatsApp to inform him that I would be coming over to his place so we could discuss my issue with Olivia,he didn't reply,I was already getting used to that,I assumed he had seen the message because obviously he would see it on his chat list. I headed to his house after getting ready,I just wore a red hoodie and black tights,when I got to his house,I called him but he didn't pick up,I was about to ring the doorbell when his Elder brother,Nonso opened the door.
"Good morning"
"Oh,yeah, morning, Michelle right?"
"Yes"
"Sorry,is Lucas at home?"I asked as his brother headed towards their big gate in haste. "Um..I don't know,I just came to pick me up something,I haven't seen him,ask one of the maids"He yelled from a short distance.
I walked into the house and saw one of the maids,"Um.. excuse me,is Lucas at home?"I as

Jace's POVIt's been days since I spoke to Michelle,we have clearly been ignoring each other,okay no,let me rephrase that,I have been ignoring her,I wasn't mad at her about her relationship with Lucas,I was angry because she didn't believe me,okay fine,I have done few terrible things to her that have hurt her but Lucas,I can bet thathe would do worse,I kept my distance from her,it was for the best even though it was hard to do so but I had no choice,I distracted myself by flirting with other girls which I know it's a bad thing to some people."So,guy,wassup with you and Olivia?Have you guys settled?"I inquired from Mason who was thinking deeply of something. "Mtchwew,nooo,I don't even know what's her problem, I'm tired,I can't continue begging her,she didn't even give me a chance to explain"He whined. I burst into hearty laughter to the dismay of Mason,"what's making this one laugh?"He eyed me playfully.

"Mich,wake up"I felt a gentle tap on my shoulder with a feminine voice calling me to get up from my bed.I opened my eyes and sat on my bed,I stretched my body,I still had that morning look on my face,I checked the time,it was 7:05am,why will anybody wake me up this early?It's not as if I'm going to school or something,I finally decided to acknowledge the presence of my younger sis who was already dressed in her school uniform."Why did you wake me up?I told you I'm not going to school,now let me be"I said and laid down on my bed once again."Better wake up o and come downstairs for morning devotions"She replied still waiting for me to follow her.Devotions ke Since when?"Mummy decided that since you have recovered,you would be joining us in morning devotions""Since when?"I voiced out my thoughts. "Since you landed yourself in hospital because of

"Thank you"I said to Daniel as I handed him the books I borrowed from him. "So fast?"He asked,utterly surprised that I updated my notes earlier than expected. "Yes"I passed him a smile and walked back to my seat.I sat down quietly,looking at nothing but the walls,second period has started,we were all waiting for Mr Sam, our government teacher."Good morning,sir"We all rose to greet him the moment he walked in."Morning"He replied,he used his hands to indicate that we should sit down. "I won't be around to teach you during lesson in the evening,so bring out your past questions,open year 2014 and answer everything"He instructed."Everything?""Sir, including theory?"Some of my classmates asked in form of grumbling."Just objectives"He replied as he took a seat to monitor us.In less than thirty minutes,I was done,most of us were already through with our wor

The ringing of the bell saved me from the hands of Mr Sam,for the past few days,he decided to join hands with Lucas and my mum to make my life a living hell just because I never showed up to study with Lucas, everytime he walked into class,I was always the first person he would call to answer a question and trust me,I answered every question correctly because I have been studying on my own.He was dictating a note on Nigerian Federalism for us when Jace walked into our class."Good morning,Sir"He greeted Mr Sam."Morning,is it time?""Yes Sir,it's time for sports"He replied as he looked at all of us before leaving to announce to the rest of the school.A smile made a way to my face,not because I saw my handsome boyfriend,I just needed a break from all these academic activities,Mr Sam left shortly,my classmates ran out immediately,leaving me all alone,I brought out my tracksuit from my bag and moved to the c

The TV noise from downstairs woke me up from my sleep,I checked the time because it wasn't possible for my siblings to watch TV very early in the morning without doing their chores. 11:00 AM I jumped out of my bed,my mum hasn't returned from work yet because she was on night shift,if she was at home,she would have woken me up with 3 slaps for oversleeping,that was my saving grace. I walked into my bathroom to wash my face and check on my siblings downstairs,I descended the stairs lazily,both of them were so focused on the action movie they were watching that they didn't acknowledge my presence. "Well,since none of you decided to check on me for oversleeping,I'm alive" "We know"Maya answered me,not taking her eyes off the TV. "It's now your mates are waking up abi,lazy fowl"Mason stated,eyeing me from head to toe. "Don't mind her,you have luck that m

Jace~We drove into my father's compound,I noticed the way she looked around like she was expecting to be somewhere else,"Is everything okay, babe?"I asked her."Yeah,everything's fine,it's just that when you said your place,I thought it was actually your other house,not your father's"She stated."Oh,my dad wanted us to move back in for some reasons best known to him but I think he realized our worth and he wants to build a strong close relationship with us,actually me though so I can take over his businesses considering that Noah is still very young"I explained to her."What about your step mum?"She raised her one brow."Are you talking about that girl?""Isn't she within the age of 24-27?,she's a woman and she's older than you""Yeah but I don't give two shits about her,she deserves no respect from me.

~Michelle~I checked the time on my phone,it was 3PM,I have been studying for the past three and half hours,I stood up from my chair and stretched my body,my butt ached like hell.I haven't let anything distract me,I made my studies my number one priority and Lucas tried every means to use that as an opportunity to get back into my life.My room door bursted open as Maya walked in,"There's something called Knocking,only armed robbers don't obey that rule."I earned an eyeroll from her,"So you aren't even ready yet?"She asked as she observed me,I was dressed in my pajamas.Yeah,you are wondering why I'm in my PJ's,I haven't taken my bath since morning,I did my house chores and dived into my books and I got lost of time,"Ready for what?"I questioned, obviously confused."Don't tell me you have forgotten,your books won't remember anything."She walked
