"You're still crying over spilled milk?" Zeke asked, barging into her room, putting a bag of junk food in front of her. Aly had moved back to her apartment a few days ago. She still had lots of work to do and couldn't let that go because she was heartbroken. Man's got to eat. " Hello to you too; I see Ida filled you on everything," she asked, opening the bag to see the goodies he had brought for her. " She did, and believe it or not, we are happy you finally dumped his ass. He never did care about you; all he wanted was your family's wealth and nothing more, and when he found out you wanted something else, he couldn't cope and had to find other ways to rid you," he told the gospel truth. " He might not have cared, but I did. I loved him despite everything. In the end, I got heartbroken. RIP my mental health, yaay." She tried holding in a sob. " Enough of him; I brought your favorites, and don't dare say you're not hungry; otherwise, it's war." He fake threatened. " On the contrary

“ You're still here? I thought you had a date tonight." Elon asked Ida, descending the staircase. “ I do, but I just couldn't leave you all by yourself throughout the night. What if you needed something?" she quizzed. “ Well, thank goodness I didn't need anything; you've got to go prepare for the date. It's almost 4 p.m.," he cautioned. “ Hey, take a chill pill. Aly would---- talk of the devil, and she appears. What took you long enough?” Ida asked Aly, who lazily walked towards her. “Hello to you too. I'm sorry I woke up late, and that's why I am late. I'm here now, so you can go get ready for your date. Don't forget to gist me on that later.” “ I won't." " I gotta go and take care of this big baby. I'd be back tomorrow to check up on you. Please do not burn the house." she said before leaving the house. Her Uber driver was already waiting outside for her. " I'm sorry for the delay; we can go now." The ride home was a short and quiet one. She paid off the driver and hurried

"Babe, come on. I just don't understand why you're throwing a tantrum over this." Zeke said, walking out of the bedroom. He wasn't understanding why his girlfriend was getting worked up over his association with Aly. She was his girlfriend before she even came into the picture, and she wasn't disrupting their relationship in any way. " You're spending much more time with Aly than me. It's always Aly this, Aly that," she argued. " Babe, you are always out with your friends, clubbing and partying. Even when we do hang out, it's for a few minutes, and then you're off to another place with your girlfriends. How many times do I spend with Aly?" he replied as she stood fumbling with her words. " I thought as much," he said, walking out of the house for fresh air. Did I make the right choice by choosing her? Talia is a great person; all she has to do is limit her association with her friends. I am not asking her to stop seeing them, but at least she can minimize her association with the

Ida and Mr. A hadn't really talked much after their date, but she was getting calls from a strange number claiming to be him. He sounded nothing like Adrian, so she decided not to answer his calls again. But the surprising thing was that he sounded more like the man she went out on a date with. What could be going on? She couldn't help but wonder: Instead, she was getting closer to Elon. He came around often and invited her to lunch most of the time. She was glad Elon was coming around, but why was it at the time she was beginning to like someone else? Why was he now noticing her after all those years? Her phone rang, snapping her out of her trance. “ Hi,” she answered, not looking at the caller ID. “Hey, love.” Mr. A spoke up. “ Hi, how are you?” she perked. “ I'm good, sweetheart; it's just that I miss you,” he confessed through the phone. “ And I've missed you too, babe; what's been going on? It's been a while since I last heard from you.” “ Yeah, I've been busy with wo

A slap sounded across the cafeteria as everyone gasped, and Nova let out a shrill cry. " What's going on?" Jax rushed to the scene as soon as he spotted his sister. " Jax, she slapped me," she held onto him. "Bitch, get off my man before I bitch slap you," Brynn said, prying Nova off of Jax. " What happened, Giada?" she asked her best friend. " The bitch called me a wannabe model and poured a cup of juice all over my outfit, messing up my hair and clothes. She deserved that slap and more." Giada fumed. " She what?" Brynn screeched, ready to attack her, when Jax stopped her. " She's not worth it, and everyone get out. There's nothing to see here; showtime is over," Jax yelled as everyone went about their business. Nova stormed off angrily after the embarrassment, yelling about what and how she was going to get revenge on all of them and whatnot. " Do you have spare clothes in your locker or the car?" Brynn asked her friend. " In the car," she said walking out to get fresh clot
