ECHOES OF LOVE 42
Jordan stared at both of his parents after Liam left in such a hurry, the chicken, they were both looking at him with suspicious eyes, and he looked away."You guys should have told me you were coming, you can't just show up at my door anytime, I told you that so many times already, mom, dad,"He scolded, if they had come just twenty minutes earlier they would have met him and Liam on it, he blushed at the thought."Don't blame us, I did tell you to come home for the weekend,"His mom said in their defense."And I told you I will when I have the chance,""That aside, who is that hottie that just left,"His mom asked him and he rolled his eyes, he took a while."That Liam, my flatmate,""Oh flatmate, is he perhaps single and you know?""Mom, Liam is just my flatmate and if it weren't for Katrina he won't even be here, there is nothing else so get off where ever fantasy land you have gone to,""I didn't say anything, you are the one assuming,"His mom defended."Well, I know how your mi

He should have known there was more to it because he knew Peter was straight but he had just felt maybe the guy wanted to make up for all the shady lies he had told on him but then Peter and his gang of friends had made it a deal to mock him on prom day, imagine having your date show up at your house picks you up in his car and when you expect to land in school in the most stylish way you end up in the middle of nowhere with the guy and his friends mocking you and calling you a creep for being different, that's exactly what Peter and his friends did to him, they told him they didn't need a creep like him at prom left him there, he had walked for thirty minutes plus before he saw a place to make a call, his parents had shown up a few minutes later with an helicopter, they got him changed and well got him to school in the plane, his arrival had been glam and his dad played his date, after prom he did get back at Peter and his crew but he would be forever thankful to his parents for bein
ECHOES OF LOVE 44
Liam watched the birds chirp, seating on the park sit, his car market a few meters away from him, his mind far away from what he heard earlier before had left, he didn't know how he felt about hearing Jordan say they are just flatmates, he thought they were more than that, he shouldn't have listened in on their conversation, he had gone to work and had not met her there so he had to wait for her to return and had given her the drugs, then he helped Josh since there were so many people to attend to, it took a while and he was sure Jordan's parents must have left already and Jordan would be waiting for him to come back."Just get your ass back to the house, you know he is waiting,"He said to himself as he pulled out his phone."Oh, fuck,"He said getting off the park chair and walking towards his car, he didn't even know his phone had been ringing, he had silenced it after he took that call earlier, Jordan had called him ten times and his mom too gave him six missed calls, he called th

"And then after that? Where did you go to after that, because I know giving someone his drugs doesn't take hours to do and you were gone for seven whole hours,""I don't think I was gone for that long,"Liam argued."Yes, you were, why would I lie? Check your time,""I am sorry I took a while, I didn't meet the person there and had to wait,""Why wait? When you could have just handed it to the pharmacist there today?""I needed to explain to her properly and Josh won't do that plus there were a lot of people there so I helped out,"He explained."And you weren't taking your calls, I didn't even know you were telling the truth, I thought you just didn't want to be here while I talk with my parents,""Why will you think that? I don't lie,"Liam asked even though he knew he did lie a little but still, he did help out at work before going to the park."Yeah, right, everyone does,"Jordan responded, walking away from him, Liam followed behind him."What do you want for dinner? I didn't kno
ECHOES OF LOVE 46
Jordan looked around for Liam, they agreed to meet after work here but he wasn't here and wasn't taking his calls, he should have gone to meet him at work but he thought it would be better to here direct, he wondered why Liam wanted to come here in the first place since he didn't drink and he had told him that but Liam had insisted, which is why he was here."The man act crazy sometimes, but it's okay,"He said as he picked a seat and sat down placing his bag on the next, there were only a few people around, as it was still early, just a few minutes past six, he expected the place to be filled soon as it was Friday which means party day, the waiter came to him and he smiled at her."I am waiting for someone and will order once he gets here,"He said and she smiled and left, he looked around again, trying his number, still not going through, maybe he should just go ahead and make some orders, not like Liam was going to drink anyway, maybe eat yes, but he noticed the man had a hatred fo

"Louis? What about you?"Gigg asked Louis who has been stuffing his mouth full of beef, Jordan couldn't help laughing at his expression."Please, I don't know anyone, apart from these few times that I have and which I spend with you guys I am always at work,"He said adjusting his glasses."That's because you choose not to get a life Louis, it is nobody's fault, we practically work at the same place and I have a fiancee and a life,"Gina accused but Louis didn't even take her serious he just continued eating, somethings never changed and the three people sitting with him right now are one of the things that never change, he should have made more effort to keep a close relationship with them after his fallout with the one who introduced them to him.They ate, drank, and talked for over an hour plus, and occasionally, his phone started ringing, and he hurriedly brought it out of his pocket, and it was the moron that was late, he checked to see if Liam was around but still no sight of hi

"What did you say?"He asked again, he was sure he must have heard him wrongly, he didn't want to make a false assumption, maybe he drank a little too much, but that can't be, he only had two glasses and he could go for six before he can get drunk, so maybe it was his ears."I said that I love you,"He repeated, okay he didn't hear wrong, the man was talking about love as in love."Liam, this is too early don't you think? We are moving so fast, we barely even started dating and you are saying this,""Yes, that's because that's how I feel,"Liam responded, Jordan didn't know what else to say, they haven't been dating for up to a month and Liam was already talking about being in love with him he knew he was too but he didn't think he was ready to admit it, it was too soon and something in a haste like this might not last long even while dating Kelvin it had taken a while, a whole year plus before they had said anything about love and that relationship still went down the hills, they wer

"I can't believe he pulled the I love you talk in me,"Jordan said as he lay on his bed, Liam was at his door-knocking but he wasn't going to give in and talk to him, he needed him to reflect on himself and take correction, that's not how people act with people they just met, he didn't even see what Gigg said that was wrong that warranted him to just up and leave like he did and Gigg was drunk."Liam, stupid,"He said getting up to get his phone, he remembered he left it in the living room, he had to call the guys he knew they will be together tonight since Gigg was leaving tomorrow, he opened his door and Liam stood there."Can we talk now?"He asked, and Jordan walked passed him to the living room, he followed behind him trying to talk to him."I am not talking with you Liam, not until you think about what you did wrong and correct yourself, now excuse me I need to apologize to my friends,"He said and pushed past him back towards his room."Are you really going to be like this?
