Semua Bab JADED: Bab 11 - Bab 20

Soon, the taxi arrived at their destination - Dreamyland Amusement Park. They got of the taxi and walked into the park. Jade excused herself and went to pay for tickets, leaving Shawn to admire the place. Shawn felt emotional as he looked around. The park was just like he'd imagined it to be. From the smell of candy in the air and the colorful environment to the costumed characters walking around the park, it was almost how he'd imagined it to be. The only slight difference was that it was a Wednesday and there weren't many people at the park. He took a deep breath in as he thought of how he'd longed to visit here. How his parents had made empty promises to him whenever he'd asked them to take him. How he'd forced himself to believe he had no interest in these things anymore but deep down, he knew he still longed for it. But, as he stood there, knowing he could finally satisfy the longing, he couldn't h

Jade muffled a grunt as she stood up from the floor where she had fallen. She cursed at herself for not cleaning the floor where she had spilled water earlier. Now it had made her slip when she had an important business to take care of. However, she decided not to clean it.She made her way out as quietly as she could, trying to ignore the pain in her upper back. As she stepped out into the darkness of the backyard, she merged into the darkness. She was dressed in black cargo pants and jacket, and leather boots. Her black hair was tied up in a ponytail and was covered by a black cap. Around her waist was a leather bag and on her hands were black leather gloves.She ran to the fence and jumped over it into the neighbor's house. Then she went out through the open gate into the roadway. She waved down a taxi immediately and entered into it, careful not to alert her bodyguards. The taxi driver gave her suspicious looks but he still drove her to her destination anyway.

Shawn turned to look at her. Burying his green irises into her blue ones, he tried to search for proof that she was lying but all he found was sincerity. “Okay then. I want to protect myself and... And my mother. From my father.” He said with a sigh.Jade raised her eyebrows in confusion. “Your father. Didn't he prom...”Shawn scoffed. “Yeah, he did. But, a beast never keeps promises. He promised your parents that he'd be better but he became worse. That day, he made me regret telling you. He hit me till I fainted and when I woke up, I saw that my mother had it worse. I swore never to tell anymore.”“Why didn't your mom leave? That is enough reason for a divorce.” Jade spoke, softly.Shawn sighed softly as he tucked a strand of her hair behind her ear. “My mom saw how hard it was on you when your parents divorced and she didn't want me to go through the same. Besides, dad had threatened her to stay. He

Jade sat cross-legged on the couch while Shawn sat up straight, both eating a bowl of popcorn and watching TV. The sports channel was on and they were watching a basketball game. They were supporting different teams and Jade's team was in the lead. They both had markers in their hands and for each goal scored by their teams, the other person's face would be drawn on. Shawn's face was almost full of different shapes while Jade's face was barely drawn on. The tables turned and Shawn's team began to win and Shawn wrote a letter on her forehead for each win. At the end of the game, Shawn's team emerged as the winner. On his face were a mustache, a variety of shapes, and a hippo while on Jade's face was written: JADE IS A LOSER!!!The room was filled with laughter as they both laughed at their own and each other's faces. They were still laughing when they heard th

Jade sighed as she threw another glance at the couch where Lewis was sitting. His eyes were fixated on her, watching her like a predator does its prey, and if she were not alone in the living room, she would have felt a little more comfortable. Also, if he hadn't downloaded the video of the incident with Sergio, threatening to send it to her dad, she would have forced him to leave. She sighed again as she looked at the television, thinking of a plan to escape his watchful eyes. She could drug his juice but he'd probably follow her into the kitchen. She could knock him out but when he woke up, he'd be angrier. She could make it look like he was trying to molest her but he was her favorite bodyguard so far and she didn't want to lose him. She could try to appeal to him but as long as he called her by her last name, nothing she said would touch him. She sighed again as she folded her arms around her chest, sulking as she turned her attention to the television. The show
