CHAPTER 41"What!?" Nick yelled in shock as he stared at his little sister and best friend sitting in front of him and holding hands."I know you'll be shocked Nick but I can no longer hide this from you. I love Jones and he feels the same way too." Jubilee confessed."Buddy, I really do love your sister." Jones chipped in. "My kid sister Jones? You didn't see any other girl to date but my little sister? This relationship won't work, I won't support or give my blessings!" Nick yelled at both of them and abruptly stood up.He pushed the chair backward and glared at them."Please Nick. We really love each other." Jubilee ran after him."Love? You're still a child Jubilee!" Nick yelled at her as they got outside. "I'm not a child Nick! I'm twenty years! And I'm old enough to make certain decisions. He's your best friend Nick so, what's stopping us from dating?It's not like it's our fault, we just fell in love." Jubilee cried out."You know Jones sees you as a kid sister even before you

CHAPTER 43"Lia? Are you okay?" Shantelle asked worriedly. She got on top of the bed and crawled up to meet Lia who was curled up on the bed. She was shaking and she was covered with duvet. Shantelle touched Lia's forehead and flinched."Oh my goodness Lia, you're burning up. You have a fever." Shantelle gasped. Lia's eyes were closer but tears were rolling down her cheeks. Her teeth were making clattering sounds while her body shook as if she was cold."You have a fever Lia. Oh my...what do I do? Can you get up so we could go to the hospital?" Shan asked. She was so scared to the teeth and she was confused too."I don't want to go to the hospital. Just get me some drugs and I'll be fine." Lia managed to whisper. Her voice was so low that Shan had to put her ear in her mouth to be able to hear what Lia had said.Her breath was hot too. "Okay. Just hang in there Lia, I'm coming. I'll be back immediately." Shan sobbed and quickly got down from the bed.Once outside the compound, she to

CHAPTER 45"We are going home! I'm done with this so called fun!" He smacked and then, walked away.Lia watched him walk away and sat on the ground, sobbing. Nick noticed that Lia wasn't walking behind him or beside him either. He turned around and saw her sitting on the floor and sobbing like a child, passers-by were already talking and pointing at her.Nick felt so embarrassed because it was obvious from their expressions that they were saying mean things about him."Come on Lia, don't be like that." Nick groaned as he walked up to her. Lia only sobbed louder and it was causing more unnecessary attention and he didn't like it."You yelled at me and if you don't apologize, I'll scream and cry out more." Lia grumbled. Nick sighed and ran his hands through his soft straightened hair.He looked around and still found people staring at them. "Okay, fine. I'm sorry. I didn't mean to yell at you and you should get up so we could go to an eatery," He said calmly.Lia smirked and stood up f

CHAPTER 47"Lia!" Shantelle yelled with all her strength. The shout smacked her back into consciousness. She perceived a burnt smell and when she looked, she found Shantelle trying to put off fire.Lia gasped in fright and quickly ran toward the kitchen but before she got there, Shantelle already put off the fire and she was breathing very fast and hard."You almost killed us Lia! If I hadn't perceived the burnt smell and followed my instinct to the kitchen, then this house and us would have been gone!" Shantelle screamed in anger and her body was shaking in fright.Lia just stood in front of the burnt cooking pot that had turned to black."I'm sorry." That was the only words she could say before walking away.She looked so dazed, as if she was going to cry and she did—she bursted into hot tears.This was all Nick's fault. If only he hadn't made her fall deeply in love with him. This was all his fault!*********Nick woke up but just stared at the ceiling. He was fully awake but he wa

CHAPTER 50Dylan walked out of the bathroom with a towel over his wet hair. He dried his hair as with his towel as he went over to his closet. He brought out a t-shirt and pants.He wore them and climbed on the bed. He suddenly thought of Shantelle and he blew out air with his mouth. He brought out his laptop and logged into his social media accounts.He searched for her but he couldn't find her and it was obvious she had blocked him.He had searched for her before and she had already blocked him but he decided to try again and see if she might have unblocked him.Suddenly, his mind went to his Instagram. He hardly operated there but he decided to try searching for her there and fortunately for him, he found her account.Perhaps, she had forgotten to block him because he rarely used Instagram. It finally became an advantage to him now. He was happy. He chatted her and hoped she'd see his message and reply."Hi Shan. How are you doing? Hope you like your new school? How about we hang
