"I love him, but I never knew he felt the same." Gabrielle whimpered. "I told him, but he did not believe me. I encouraged him severally to open up to you, but he was scared of…" "Who?" Gabrielle asked curiously. "Your boyfriend." "Why? He always looks down on himself. I don't know why!" Gabrielle shook her head sadly. "Brian made a mistake when your sister was a student of this institution and Mike knows about it. He threatened to tell you everything if he sees him around you. Brian can handle everything except your hate." "What! He knows my sister?" "Yes," Warlick said with a nod. "What did he do?" Gabrielle asked. "Danielle and I were friends. We sometimes share our foods, but I don't give her the ones we cooked with weeds and Brian knew." "What's a weed?" Agatha asked, frowning her face. "The leaves we smoke." "Oh…okay." "She came to my room one day and Brian gave her beans and rice I cooked with weeds. She saw the weed and asked him, he told her it was rosemary.

"Jane and some group of girls are outside the gate waiting for you, threatening fire and brimstone. Jane is properly dressed in a long wedding gown. She said it is either you wed her or one of you dies." Mike stood up immediately with his eyes widely opened. He narrowed his eyes and shook his head as though he did not hear what his friend said clearly. "Jane is far away, who told her about the wedding?" Mike asked coldly. He was obviously drowning. "The news of your wedding is the talk of the town. Probably, one of her friends called her." "Smallie .. where are you," Mike sat on the bed and wept. He stared at his wristwatch when his phone began to ring. It was 9:30 am and the church service was supposed to commence by 10:00 am. Tears began to drip from his eyes again. "Mike you need to push ahead with the wedding to pay up your debt. You need Jane." G-boy whispered knowing what was waiting for him for making such an utterance. "If…if…if….you ever say that…again, I'm going to

One of Danielle's maids took Gabrielle's luggage to the guest room. She sat on the bed weakly and began to doubt her decision to leave Molteno. She would have stayed and faced the shame. "Gabby, I objected when you accepted Mike's proposal, but I'm not happy with what you did to him. Does he really deserve it? I told you to stay away from him. Now, you have abandoned your studies because you are running away from him," Danielle said, tightening her face. Gabrielle became worried. Her only sister had never gotten mad at her to the extent of squeezing her face. "Dani, what is it?" Gabrielle asked, standing up from the bed. "I have these pains that come and go." "Since when?" "Yesterday" "Is mom aware?" "She said it's labor but it is not time to go to the hospital yet. She said I should wait until the pains begin to come in ten minutes intervals." "Hell no! Dani, you are going to the hospital now! When I say now, I mean right now!" "No, Gabrielle, mom…." "I will raise my vo

Gabrielle left Cape Town on Monday morning and headed down to Molteno to defend her project which had been written by a student Agatha hired. Her friend stood at the gate, waiting to see her.Agatha frowned the moment she alighted from the school's shuttle bus. Surprise was clearly written all over her face. "Gabby, what is going on? You have changed!" Agatha said. Gabrielle ignored her question and gave her a warm embrace. "Oh, God! Gabby…I told you to go for a postpill!" "What are you saying?" Gabrielle forced a smile as she kept looking around. It had been two months already since she left the school, however, the environment looked as though she had gone for over a decade."Babe, you are my friend, I know you very well. You are obviously pregnant!" "Aga, I need to rest and go through my project again. I'm going to lodge in a hotel and you are going to stay with me.""If you really want to go through your project and get ready for justification tomorrow, you need to stay alone

Gabrielle and her friend left the lodge after bidding the girls farewell. A call had been bothering her since she was with the caretaker, but she ignored it. "Babe, pick up," Agatha said. Gabrielle sighed and picked up. "Hello," she muttered. "As cold as Ice," the cold voice whispered. Gabrielle frowned and regretted ever giving him her new number. " Your husband just got down from the school bus," Ice smirked. "What! Who?" Gabrielle asked. "The lady's man," Ice smirked again. "Oh god, I don't want to see him. Where is he?" "He is heading towards hall B. Where are you?" Gabrielle turned, looked at her friend, and turned her face again. "I left Bangkok lodge now, I'm heading to the hotel where I lodged to check out. If he comes out of the gate, please, delay him until I have boarded a bus.""Are you going to Cape Town this evening?" Agatha said. Gabrielle ignored her. "How long will I delay him?" "I'm going to call you when I'm out of here.""Okay," Ice responded and hung up
