Joanabe, your child CHAPTER THIRTY-TWO- MY IDEA FOR A GIFT
JOENABE (JOENABELL) POVToday is the day after yesterday. I am glad Cheryl calms me down and calmly reminded me that I still have time to buy Leonel a gift. We almost walk every section and store inside the mall, but I got no clue.I let out a big sigh while scanning through the gift section, "what does he want?" My eyes travel to toys, clothes, and shoes. Isn't that a generic type of gift? Of course, he won't like it."Joenabell, you got something in your mind?" Cheryl place both of her hands in my shoulder. I shake my head, "No clue, Mom."What is a perfect gift for him? I've known him for ten years, but it feels like it is not the deal we only send letters as gifts to each other every birthday. 'Oh! Letters!'I snap my fingers because I finally had an idea on my mind. I do not know what kind of letter. I jump and clap my hands together. Then, I feel the weight on my shoulder. I turn my body around, "you finally had an idea."Cheryl looks brightly at me like the first she saw me happ

JOANABE (JOENABELL) POVHe walks closer to me to greet me formally, "Welcome to our house, Joenabell." He smirks at me. The smirk on his face looks sexy, which is dangerous to admit.I humbly nod at him."This is a party," I heavily sigh in the air. I look into him, and I am glad he did not hear me talking to myself. He guides me to the main area where the sounds are loud. TO BE HONEST, I am not into parties since I am not a party goer."Who's that, Leonel?" A man with black hair approaches us, and I see Leonel gives him a death glare that makes him excuse himself away from us. He looks relief after the stranger walks away."You are harsh to your guest," He looks like he is about to snarl at me, but I am glad he didn't. I am pleased to see him not angry with me. "They are my mother's guest except you." My eyes show my state in shock at his statement. I shrug at my reaction, "you

The guest must have left the party due to what happened. That girl will be hunting for me for the rest of her life because she's too obsessed with Leonel. Jeez, I made a mess in this life of mine.A coat wraps me, and I look in the person walking beside me. Shoulder to shoulder while enjoying the breeze and the relaxing garden."Aren't you feeling cold?"
