Chapter Twenty four
Drake's POV
The thought of her been mad at me, made me quiver. Please don't give up on me Jemima.I checked her WhatsApp but she wasn't online. I felt like my heart would explode out of fear of what might happen."Why do you look so worried?" Cardi asked.
"It's none of your business..."
"Since you came, you have been in a bad mood. Did I do anything wrong?"
Seriously is she a fool? Is it not obvious I didn't want to come to LA and bail out in my Jemima.I just rolled my eyes on her and continued to read Jemima's twenty messages.They were filled with collectiveness and patience.The tears were making my eyes pepperish, the more I read the sadder and guiltier I became.I didn't ask for this life Jemima.The thought of losing you drives me crazy."Sir, where are we going?" The driver asked."We dropping her at her suite then you taking me home..."

Chapter Twenty fiveJemima's POVMy jaw dropped the moment I saw him.Wasn't he supposed to be in LA? What was he doing here? No, this must be just a dream.For seconds, we just stared into each other's eyes and didn't utter a word.I shook my head with my eyes closed and when I opened them, he was still there smiling he is really here.I am not hallucinating."Hey Jemima, why do you look shocked? It's me Drake..."I looked at him one more time and realised he had in the same outfit as that night we met in that club.The cap and the glasses made him look more like my Drake and not the star player.Seeing him like this brought a sharp pain altogether.I recalled how he lied to me about his identity and since then it has always been one lie after the other.He had the box with had that dress he bought me on his left hand and a bonquet of roses on the other hand."What do you want Drake?" I tremble
Chapter Twenty sixDrake's POVThat Jemima girl wasn't supposed to get into my head.I just don't want to feel anything inside.It hurts so much that I can barely breath.I felt like I was in an abandoned island and no one could reach me.I need my brother more than ever now, he is the only one who knows how to make me feel better.I took a cab to the family's company and when I reached his office, his personal assistant stopped me."I am sorry sir Drake but sir Daniel gave strict orders not to be disturbed...""Do you know who I am?" I raged and she nodded wordlessly."So shut the hell up and go back to what you were doing..."Like an obedient girl, she got back to her seat and looked down at her fingers embarassingly.People should always remember their place."Bro..." I slammed the door open only to be slapped with the shock of my life.There sat the waste o
Chapter Twenty sevenJemima's POVI dropped on my knees as my dam broke.My tears were uncontrollable.When I met him all I thought was, "Damn it's gonna break me when you leave..." And I was right.Crying is a way to your eyes speak when you mouth can't explain how you feeling inside.Matt knelt infront of me and wrapped me in his arms.I wish they made me feel home like Drake's did but all I could feel was been encaged for comfort.He soothed me and promised everything would be okay, over and over and over again but I doubted it.When he lifted my face to look at him,my sobs increased and no words were courageous enough to leave my lips."He is not worth your tears.If you mean something to him then he will fight for you..." He wiped my tears with his thumbs but they were so stubborn."He is Drake, he will never change Jemima..." He cussed out with so much rage in his voice.
Chapter Twenty eightDrake's POVI don't know for what reason but I believe you will come.I might be the biggest as*hole in the universe but you always understand me.In my darkest moment, I think of you.In my sorrows, I need you.Even thou it seems hopeless to wait, I still believe.I leaned on the wall beside the door, waiting for her who weirdly knew how to restore my sanity.I take another strong sip of whisky but it doesn't really dull the ache in my chest.Stupid whisky, you were supposed to help me forget this torture for a while if not a while please a few seconds would go a long wayI know she will come.I sighed biting my trembling lips.Second after second I would check my phone desperately.It was only thirty minutes later and I feel like it's eternity.She will come.She would never want to see me hurt or broken.One hour later,Maybe she is just stuck in traffic.Maybe s
Chapter twenty nineDrake's POVI am tired of this life,It's like I am screaming and no one can hear me.I am suffocating.I am not angry but in pain.It's fucked up not to have control over your life.My life feels like a horror show.You don't know what it feels like.To be all smiley.But you are breaking deep inside.I staggered to the living room after throwing Chacha's crap over the balcony and slumped on the sofa.I am what's wrong,I keep hurting those dear to me.I felt tears spill down my face and I quickly wiped them away.How has she gotten under my skin so easily? I don't think I have ever felt all this before.At first it scared me but now I love the unfamiliar emotions am feeling.The emptiness when she is not around.How I feel like every ounce of my breathe has been taken from my lungs when she is around me.Or how I imagine the world comes to a standstill when she smiles or how her eyes shine lik
Chapter ThirtyJemima's POVI represent you three weeks of rejected calls, ignored messages and massive loneliness.I know of a person who is nothing but sadness and loneliness and that person is me.There is neither love or light in my life.Yeah, the sun rises but it has been ages since it shone on me.I know, that's how unfortunate I am.Come think of it, I deserve an award.The award for the biggest hypocrite and liar goes to Jemima.I may seem over Drake but only my pillow and I know the untold tears that explain the longingness in my heart. The distance between us was to make me forget him but it just made me realise that I love this son of a man.I don't know how it happened or when it happened but I love him.If only he would want me as I want him with fire and passion.If only I was never an option.If only he had eyes for me,If only.I felt tears burning behind my eyes but I refrained from crying.I continued w
Chapter Thirty oneJemima's POVAfter Josh cut the cake, he couldn't hide his excitement when he realised that I had baked his favourite. Red velvet ice-cream cake.Three layers of red velvet cake and two layers of homemade cheesecake ice cream sandwiched between the layers like he loves it."Thank you..." He mouthed me and I just winked.After the cake cutting was over.The MC appeared again on stage and announced the special guest of the night who was to render a love song.To everyone surprise, it was the Nicki Minaj a famous RnB singer was called on stage.As she walked gracefully on the stage, the room was filled with screams.She was indeed love.She began singing and the room was silent.Everyone seemed to be under her enchantment.I never understand how her voice shows off several pitches in one piece.It's amazing.She was on top on my favourite list until she called my Drake on stag
Chapter Thirty twoJemima's POVWaking up and seeing the love of your life lying peaceful next you is priceless.I couldn't help but stroke his cheek.Words are not enough to describe how handsome and attractive this man is.I am sure when been created, God poured some sprinkles and everything pretty in his mud before molding him.He was perfectly carved for the human beings to admire.I bent forward so that I could kiss him when he opened his eyes."Hey doll face?"He pulled me against his chest and wrapped his arms around me."Why are you up so early?" He yawned."I wanted to admire you...""That's sweet of you..." He pressed his lips softly on my forehead that my face got heated"That's sweet of you..." He pressed his lips softly on my forehead that my face got heated.I will never get used to this.I have fallen for you harder than a slip on
