》》Jason Dutton《《Roxy sat down on the couch and Adrian sat on a single sofa. I had no idea who to sit next to, I didn't want to look like a bad brother or a bad boyfriend.So I came up with the idea to be their loyal waiter though that didnt last long."Is there anything I could get for anyone?" They both shook their heads no. I sulked. "I'll...be in the kitchen."I went to the kitchen and prepared lunch for them as I paid close attention to their tense conversation.I was surprised Roxy didn't beat her ugly. She was calm and understanding for the first time in...never.When it came to her man, she would beat you pink and blue. She would be sure to give you a lesson for life. A lesson you would never forget. But this time...she was calm. She gave Adrian a chance. She listened to her side of the story, listened to all her thoughts and didn't interr

》》Jason Dutton 《《 I went to the kitchen to make breakfast. I was making an omelette when I heard whispering from behind me. I spun around to see Roxy and Jack. "Morning bro," Roxy smiled merrily. "Morning, um... what- I mean when did Jack come over? And what was he doing in your room?" I asked switching off the stove. I walked out of the kitchen. "Oh! He was just helping me with something," she replied as I leaned on the wall. "Yeah, she asked me to give her a massage," Jack added. "A massage?" I enquired cocking a brow. "Yeah, I woke up with a sore back." "If you say so," I sighed before heading back to the kitchen to finish up my breakfast. Roxy walked Jack out saying, "Thanks for the massage, honestly your fingers work like magic." "Dont worry about it, if you need another session, I'm only on

》》Jason Dutton《《 I woke up and looked around at my surroundings as I felt a painful pulse in my head. I got out of bed and saw a frame on the floor with glass all over. I picked up the frame and turned it over. It was a picture of my biological family. Roxy, Daniel, my mother and myself, together as a happy family. I got tears in my eyes as I stared at my mother, how beautiful she was. I remembered her soothing voice. I had never seen her angry, well I did once. When she wanted to leave. In the end she couldn't. She loved my father so much and I still don't understand how that was possible. She said I would someday but that day has not arrived as yet. And it might never arrive. I looked at Daniel and remembered when he taught me to play chess. That was once a happy memory but now it's a pretty corrupt memory. The memory of a father teaching his son something new as a

》》Jason Dutton《《Jack and I burst into laughter at the epic fail we had just witnessed on the tv. Jack then started choking on popcorn. I gave him one hard slap on the back and his choking was replaced by a scream. Calvin burst into laughter at this as Jack threw cushions at me whileI died laughing. Just then my phone started ringing."Boo! Don't pick it up!" Jack sulked."Yeah it's interrupting our afternoon slash night chill session," Calvin added in agreement.I ignored them and picked up the call from Roxy. "Roxy?""Jason, I have some important news, meet me at the mansion," she instructed."Can it wait?" I enquired."No, we've got a traitor.""I'm on my way."I hung up and grabbed my jacket. "I gotta go," I told the guys.I left and rushed to the mansion.I walked ins

》》Jason《《Adrian went outside to call Jack. I remained in the bar drinking my glass of alcohol.**Flashback**"Hello son, may I come in?"I stared coldly at the man who abandoned us. "Jason? Who is it?" I heard Roxy's voice approaching. She lay her hand on my shoulder and I stepped aside."Excuse me sir, do I know you?" she asked. She probably didn't remember him since we hadn't seen him in such a long time."I am your father," he stated."Why are you here Daniel?!" I yelled."I came to visit.""You disappeared from our lives and we'd prefer it stayed that way. Good night Daniel," I stated before shutting the door in his face.
