Chapter- 30 After meeting his class tutor, Jorge came out of his room. He went there to inform her that he won’t come tomorrow as he got a jiu-jitsu match to participate in. While he's on his way to his class, he saw Julia near her locker and she’s not alone which made Jorge frown. She’s talking to Martin who’s the same year as Jorge, the basketball captain and a popular guy among girls but Jorge doesn’t like him as he’s a big show-off. It’s clear that he doesn’t like her talking with him and also he doesn’t want her to talk to any other guy. He knew this is insane but he can’t stand to see her with any other guy. Jorge never really sees Julia as a girl he could date for all these days, but now his mind is kept thinking, why not? But still, he didn’t think much into that. After what happened between them, he’s quite impressed with her. He desires to get her attention, he wants her to talk with him and remain as best cousins like always. But now what’s

Chapter- 32Naomi walked back to the building losing all the interest to go out. Nick followed her silently, he doesn’t want to create a scene in the lobby.In the elevator, Nick kept staring at her but she didn’t bat an eye at him and looked down the whole time.He tried to say something but he’s hesitant too. He not only exposed his other side, but he has also put their family secret at risk. Now she’ll ask a million questions about everything and he can’t say the answers until her father reveals. He clenched his teeth in frustration.Once they came to the house, Naomi sat down on the stairs. She doesn’t know what to ask him that much she’s shocked. Even the gun didn’t scare her but his uncontrollable rage to hurt someone scared her more. “Hey,” he touched her shoulders. Naomi moved away from his touch.“I can explain,” Nick said and kneeled before her. &ld

Chapter- 33 The next day, Naomi walked straight to her father’s study room when Nick dropped her at her home. Today is Sunday and she thought he will be here. To her surprise he was there in the garden, watching the rain and nature sipping his coffee. More importantly, he’s alone. “Naomi,” he smiled when he saw her. But soon he sensed there’s something wrong seeing the look on her face. “Dad I want to talk to you,” she said. “Sure, what is it?” he asks and taps the seat beside her. “Come and sit here,” “It’s something important, dad,” she said. “Okay,” he nods. She was first hesitant but she can’t calm anymore. “Who are you?” she asks. He smiles, his ocean blue eyes filled with amusement. Nick didn’t get a chance to inform the matter to Vincent beforehand. “I am your father, Darling,” he chuckles. “I want real answers,” she said and that turned Vincent curious. “What do you want to know?” he asks.

Chapter- 35On Naomi’s birthday, she got an important test that she has to attend and Nick got classes that he can’t skip so they couldn’t get a day off and spend time together. Naomi thought if it came on a weekend it would be so better –it’s fine too; she loves Fridays.After the class, Naomi looked at her phone but there’s no message from Nick. She wondered whether he’ll come or not? He called her at 12 pm and wished her. He didn’t say when he will come and she didn’t ask him. Derek accompanied her most of the time. He’s the only person in Nick’s absence so that he got to spend time with the only girl he likes. What he’s thinking is wrong and he knew that too but he couldn’t avoid it. His feelings for Naomi haven’t changed a bit.Accompanied by Jorge and Derek she came out of the school with a face full of sadness. This day is going to end in a couple of hours but still, Nick

The pub is some ten blocks away from Nick’s apartment and the traffic made the ride longer.They went inside the pub from the back door, as Dan never used the main door often because it is crowded with people who he barely knows and he hates wasting his time with unwanted talks and greetings.It’s one of the busiest hours, they walked throw all the commotion to finally reach inside. It’s all filled with mostly men ranged from all ages and some women in elite clothes. She’s the odd one there, even Dan is dressed in a suit and overcoat.Everybody in there greeted him, he smiled and had a small talk with the people who came to him. The environment is so new for Naomi. She has never been to this side of her family which she doesn’t know existed.   A guy is singing a jazz song. Many of them sitting and enjoying their drinks. A few were dancing. It’s so huge; she couldn’t recognize all those faces.The
