They returned later covered in snow from head to toe and smiling sheepishly.
"Goodness Gracious! What happened to you four?" A lady with sandy brown hair shrieked when she saw them dusting off the snow."Hi aunt Lucy, we were snowboarding. Jack and I were in team while Jimmy and Timmy were in team. They saw Jack and I continue winning and pushed us, causing all of us to tumble on the snow. Good thing none of us fell off the mountain" Jason explained in one breath.Aunt Lucy looked at her boys before sighing and walking up to them, she helped them dust off the snows on their hairs while chiding them in the process "I have told you guys to beware of the kind of games you play, how can you be pushing someone in the mountain, what if you caused an avalanche and you all fall of the mountain, huh, what I'm I supposed to do then huh?""We are sorry mom" Timmy and Jimmy apologized to their mother."What happened?" They heard and turned to see Veronica and Marsha approaching tJason's heart missed a beat when he heard her voice "em, I...I ...I returned... Yea returned Anna's earphones, I burrowed it this afternoon" he gulped and his heart thumped loudly in his chest."Can't you give it to her in the morning?""She claimed she wants to use it this night, you know how Anna can be" he intentionally raised his voice, hoping Anna will hear him and get her earphones."Yea. Alright then, goodnight.""Yea goodnight" Jason heaved a sigh and intends to walk away."Why is your lips swollen?" Sarah stopped and asked him again."I bumped into the wall in my room while looking for the light switch, is it that obvious?" He touched his lips."Not much, just that I was standing too close to you then. Goodnight Jason" Sarah bid and walked into her room.Jason heaves a low sigh of relief "goodnight Sarah" he then walked down to the last room at the extreme and got in."Hey where are you two going?" Jack inquired when he saw Jason and Ann
After new year, Jason went back to school, so did Anna. He will be graduating this year and a friend of his father has already promised him to reserve a seat for him in the computer department of his software company and Jason just can't wait to start working. And what's good? It's in LA, his home town, nothing can be more amazing than that. He has already planned out his life, after school, he will work for three months while living in his parents home and after that, he will get an apartment of his own where he will live the rest of his life.Anna will get married and he will attend her wedding as her brother, she will have kids and he will be their godfather, life will be good. He didn't rule out a time for him to get married because he doubt if he will ever love another woman the way he love his sister, so marriage is out of his dictionary.Time flew by and his graduation was fast approaching, and so is also a basket game. He had promised Anna that she will come watch it a
Anna walked out of the airport, her gaze traveled left and right, searching for a familiar figure but just can't see him. She hung her bag on her shoulder and fetched out her phone from her pant pocket with a frown on her face. He promised to be waiting for her but then where is he? The sky was cloudy, looks like it will be pouring down soon. She sighed and entered her call log to dial and all too familiar number when someone covered her eyes from behind, she jolted but then sensing the familiar presence, a smile broke out on her lips."I was just about to call you" she said to the person covering her eyes."And how are you too sure that it's me?" He whispered in her ear, his breath brushed on her neck causing her to shiver lightly.She licked her lips "because no one else can make me feel this way."Jason smiled and released her eyes, he turned her to face him and immediately covered her lips in his in a passionate kiss "if you don't ever want us to get caught, don't sa
A month later, Jason stepped on the soil of Los Angeles but rather than go home, he went straight to Anna's school. Anna was shocked when she received Jason's call that he was at her school gate, she had dashed out of her dorm and fair enough, he was there, she jumped on him and he spun three times with her before putting her back on her feet."When I call you feisty tigress, you will get annoyed but now look at you" he laughed.Anna spanked him on his shoulder lightly, she so much wanted to kiss him but they just can't, this is LA after all "what are you doing here?""Hmm, that's not what you asked when you jumped on me a minute ago" he grinned.Anna chuckled "well, first of all, I have to react on seeing you before questioning you, don't you think?""You busy? Come join me for dinner."Anna looked at her dressing "I'm I good like this?""You will look beautiful no matter what you wear" he complimented."Why, thank you" she replied shyly before grabbing his
Anna turned to look at him with fear in her eyes "what...what...what do..do you...think?"Jason remained silent for a while before heaving a deep sigh "I think we need to go to a hospital.""Hospital? Is it necessary?" She asked."Yes" he answered "for all the obvious reasons.""What about class?""Let's go have it first, then you will come back for class and after school, we will go back for the result.""What result?"Jason sighed "Anna, come on."Anna bit her lower lip, her heart was already thumping in her chest and she knows which test Jason wants her to take. They walked back to the canteen and she grabbed her bag before they both left for the hospital.There was a hospital not to far away from her school, so they entered there. Jason spoke to a nurse and she ushered Anna in to speak with the doctor. After that, a pregnancy test strip was given to her and she walked into the bathroom and peed on it. She rushed out and handed the strip to the nurse.
Veronica stepped out of her office, it's been a tiring day, and she wants to do nothing but go home, have dinner, take a shower and go to bed. The thought of shower caused her body to tingle with expectation. She walked to the parking lot and got into her car, she closed the door and just in time to hear her phone ringing, she searched her handbag and got it out "hello Sharon.""Veronica. How are you?""I'm okay, you?""I'm great. Sorry I didn't turn up for the meeting last week, I was just so busy.""It's okay, we managed.""Oh, where are you?""On my way home.""Oh. Benjamin's father had a heart attack again, so we rushed him to the hospital.""Oh my, that's too bad. Is he feeling better now?""Yes, he is getting better, he has even regained consciousness.""That's good. Well, I wish him quick recovery.""Thank you. Em, that reminds me, is Anna sick?""Anna, sick? No, not that I know of. Why do you ask?""Well, I just saw her and Jason leavin
When Jason and Anna got to the hotel room, they both sat on the bed silently, each lost to their own thoughts. After like thirty minutes, Jason looked at her "I have been thinking" Anna granted him her attention then, she waited for him to continue but when he didn't, fear gripped her heart and she shook her head at him."No Jason, don't even think about it, don't even say it out loud, I don't want to hear it!"Jason looked at her in confusion, he grabbed her hands in his "say what Anna?"Anna's eyes had welled up and it wasn't long, the tears started dropping "I'm not having an abortion."Jason heaved a sigh and looked away from her "Jason, I know this is wrong but this is life we are talking about here and not just any life, our baby. Will you bear to kill our baby? When I saw that little dot in that monitor, I developed a sense of protection. I want to have my baby, please Jason" she sobbed.Jason heaved another low sigh "I will not lie to you Anna, I did think abo
Veronica was pacing to and fro in the living room with her phone in her hand while Samuel was sitting on the sofa, his head resting on it. They both looked at the door when they heard it open. Veronica was surprised when she saw Jason but she didn't let it show, her gaze settled on the petite figure hiding behind him "I am going to ask this only once. Annabelle Naomi Macaulay, are you pregnant?"Anna and Jason stiffened at the tone of their mother's voice, she already know just like they suspected. Their lips were tight shut and they both kept their gaze on the floor. Seeing them behave like that, Veronica's heart constricted, there is no need asking, their behavior have just proven it "I'm asking you a question young lady" she raised her voice a bit higher this time.Anna sniffed and slowly nodded her head. Veronica became lost for words, even though she suspected it, seeing her admitting it was a whole different story "who is responsible?" Veronica asked, there is no way she
