" How's Phoenix baby girl?" Mila asked Phebe as soon as she answered the phone." It's beautiful, great actually," she answered grinning from ear to ear on the phone." Seems like someone is treating you nice, yes?" she asked about her brother." He is, and I am amazed at how fast a person could change. He's everything I've ever wanted in a man now," Phebe blushed making Mila 'awwwn' at the other end of the line." Yeah, babe, I will call you back in a few. He's taking me out on a surprise. I will update you on whatever happens. Say hi to lover boy for me," she added hanging up the call.Hayes walked into the apartment feeling tired and worn out. He had a terrible day at school and practice and wasn't in the mood for anything else apart from food and sleep." Hayes, are you okay?" she asked him as she met him in the kitchen getting food for himself after a quick shower." I'm fine," he answered walking past her." Babe, you don't look good. What happened?" Mila asked again. Aside from
" Someone is glowing!" Blair playfully nudged her friend as they walked to class." I always glow," she shrugged." This is different honey, trust me. I think something else is making you glow, or should I say, someone instead?" she asked making her friend blush as she recalled memories of their sexcapade a few days ago." You're blushing!"" No, I'm not Blair," she pouted as they burst into laughter entering their lecture hall.Phebe hadn't returned from Phoenix yet, she was returning tomorrow and she couldn't wait to hear all that her friend had to say.They had a whole lot to talk about and she couldn't wait. The excitement alone was killing her"Do you have to go?" Niel leaned by the door of his bedroom as he watched his girl pack for her flight." As much as I don't want to, babe you know I gotta go." she walked towards him pecking him at the corner of his lips." I know, but, like can't you switch schools or something?" he playfully asked in a cute voice." No, no babe. I can't,
EpilogueOne year along the line… Hayes stood by the door of Maryse 'room admiring how she had curled up beside his girlfriend in a peaceful sleep. They were currently in their final year of university. Remy and Raine were engaged to be married in a couple of weeks. Willow and Neo had welcomed their quadruplets , three girls and a boy. After Kaia's disappearance, he had not heard anything about her. She had not reached out to him about Maryse. Though he did not want her to, she should have made an effort just to prove that she cared. "How long have you been standing there?" Mila asked. He hadn't noticed she was awake and watching him. " Um, for a couple of minutes," his ears turned pink. Mila chuckled at him carefully getting out of bed in order not to wake Maryse up. Phebe and Niel were going strong. She was helping him manage the family business by interning there. She was happy for her friend with how things were falling in place for her. Mila had never imagined being w
I can't believe summer vacation is coming to an end, "Mila said over the phone to her best friend Willow. “Tell me about it, at least we've got dance tryouts to look out for." Willow reminded her. “Yeah, when is Khalil coming back? I've missed him, by the way, "Mila inquired as she shopped for stationery at the mall's bookstore. “He said he and his boyfriend Jake would be here in two days, and I appreciate how supportive his parents were when he came out as gay "Willow revealed. “Yeah, they're good parents... so he's missing the first day of school?" Mila voiced out. “Mila honey, school starts in two days time today is Saturday." Willow chuckled at her friend's forgetfulness.
“You were rude to her, so you deserve everything and more." Nina voiced out. Hayes and his friends hang out at Mike's house. They had a lair where five of them hang most of the time. “Why are you defending her? Is it because you're both on the same stupid team that's why you defend that fake ass bitch?" Austin asked, taking a drag of his cigar. “First of all, smoking kills, and my team ain't stupid. Mila is the most real person you could ever find in Henry M. Gunn high school," she stated. “Enough of the fake ass bitch, is there a party tonight?" Mike changed the topic. “None that I've heard of," Austin answered. “There is, actually." Hayes showed them a chat between him and Trisha, the school whore inviting them for a p
“Um, why is Hayes glaring at you?" Jake asked Mila at the table. “I guess he likes what he sees," she said loud enough for him to hear. “Ha! you wish, I'd rather stick it in a hole than to fuck you, Ms fakey," he replied in the same tone, loud enough for everyone to hear. There were murmurs of 'burns' and 'she deserves it' but she masked it with a dry laugh. “I'll bet the hole doesn't get STDs from you since you can't help but stop sticking it in every skirt you see," she smirked at him. “Scowls don't look good on you, Miller." she winked at him. “At least I get laid, but you never have ever since Ace Smith, does that ring a bell?" he laughed walking off. Ace was a sour topic for Mila and her friends. He was a past she wanted to keep buried, but it seems that won't be the case anymore now that Hayes had brought it up. The whole cafeteria went silent as Mila and her friends walked out. “You crossed the lineman,"
Mom, dad?" Mila was shocked to see her parents in the kitchen when she got back from school.“Hi hunny, how was school today?" her mom asked.“It was fine, how come I didn't know you were coming home today?" she asked taking a can of soda from the fridge.“Oh, we were just coming for some documents and decided to wait for you to close from school before we left," he told.“Safe trip back." she walked towards the stairs.“Can we get a hug or a kiss from you at least?" her mom inquired.“No, all you care about is work this and work that, oh how about you adapt your work as your child then you can ask for hugs and kisses. No wonder Noel and Niel decided to be far away from you." she finished walking up the stairs.“Mila Louie Bennett, apologise to your mom right now or else---“Else what dad? I'd be grounded or my cars were taken away from me, oh wait you'd send me off to a military
We thought you'd gone with Austin?" Willow asked. “Nope, he's got basketball practice, they claim they have a match on Friday," she said approaching the girls. “So are we still up for a sleepover today?" Willow asked. Raine had asked the girl's over at her house for a sleepover. She wanted to know them much better. “Of course we are. But I need a ride home. My ride wouldn't be done with practice anytime soon and I don't want to ride with Nina and Natalie either." she begged. “Sure we can drop you off, come on," Mila added as they headed off to the parking lot where her jeep was parked. “I love your ride, whoever this is for." she chuckled. “Thanks, it's mine, Willow drives us on Thursday and Friday," Mila explained. “This is my stop, you guys meet me here tonight so I direct you home for the sleepover." Raine bid her friends goodbye as they drove off. The junction where she alighted was just 10 seconds walk from her house. “Maybe she wants to surprise us, that's why she didn't
