CHAPTER THIRTY
If I can get home.Stephany did not bother to explain or clear the misunderstanding and let Candy rattle about the reason they were together admiring Juma's coat.She rested on the sofa and let herself be immersed into her own thoughts. Candy on the other side, still staring at the coat, wondered if the sun had risen on the West.At that thought, Candy turned to Stephany and just when she was about to say something to her, her phone beeped.'Gosh! My data was still on?" She asked no one in particular as she took her phone to check on the notification."Someone else has also joined on the trend," Candy said as she brought her phone to Stephany, "Check this out,"Stephany raised a brow with an inquisitive expression written all over her face. But, in utter disappointment, scrunched them later as soon as she watched the Tik Tok video. She blinked in confusion, fluttering her natural long lashes."What is wrong with people nowadays that everything is sent t

CHAPTER THIRTY ONE
Wild ThoughtsThe familiar villa and the steel automatic gate appeared in Stephany’s sight as soon as she alighted the cab. It was a pay and board taxi so after alighting, the driver drove off immediately as Stephany walked into the compound.The compound was so quite and she felt uneasy. All the way here she felt a little anxious but now she could feel that something had happened and she was going to find out about it sooner or later.‘Didn’t Cain come home?’ Stephany asked herself in her mind.‘Where’s Chef Ali?’Another question popped up. Ali was like the caretaker of this villa. Every time they came back from home, or anybody was sent home, he would open the door once the gate was opened.It was so strange that he wasn’t by the door now. Every step she took, her heart seemed to stop a little. Stephany stood by the parlor and breathed in and out.“What is wrong with me?” She mumbled the question to herself. Something like this had never happened to he

CHAPTER THIRTY TWO
Your Heart is beating fast.When Stephany heard the name that Juma spoke out, she froze and couldn’t move from her bending position for a long time.It was the name of the high school that they shared. It was a long time since she spoke of that school.…In his dream, Juma was now certain that where he was at, was the name of the school he had wanted to know. From the fragments of his memory, especially the ones which always come to his dream, he had seen this school but with the girl called Stephany. Right now, he was sure that he had fallen for Stella, his personal assistant.If he could see this Stephany girl clearly, it would be best because it will be helpful to him in searching for her and clearing that tug he could feel always when he dreamed about her. Then at that time, he would tell Stella the truth and ask her to marry him for real this time.But, unexpectedly, he wasn't going to see her as the dream faded. He felt his conceous gather and the next

CHAPTER THIRTY THREE
Ali Is Not Home.Juma closed his eyes to release his emotions that had been hard to control in the last three minutes.He tightened his grip around her and pressed her head on his chest. If she could feel what he was feeling, it would be great if she could also understand them.He did not expect her to accept now, but at least, she would give him a chance. A chance to show her that truly he had fallen for her.And also, Stella could allow him to be part of her world and become someone more than just her boss or fake husband at that matter.He could feel her chest on his, slightly poking him. But they were soft and drove him crazy.But to his surprise, her reply was rather quick and surprising. Her heart that was beating erratically for shock now seemed to follow the rythm of his and filled with emotions.Only that he could feel like they were a longing hidden deep. Her breathing had quickened.He was startled by Stella's need. He even thought she was

CHAPTER THIRTY FOUR
Only One Gaze.When Stephany heard the nonchalant tone in Juma’s voice, she rolled her eyes and started up the stairs. If he was not going to bother telling her where Ali was, then she was not going to remain here anymore.But, Juma had no plan of letting her escape as he walked hurriedly to her with an amused smirk on his face. He couldn’t thank the house slippers and the soft mat enough for muffling his steps.He reached out for her with his muscular arm and pulled her to him from the stairs. She lost her footing and landed on his sturdy chest leaning on it with her back. He hugged him from the back after successfully achieving his goal of bringing her back to him.His arms tied around her belly like he was hugging his pregnant wife.Since he was only a few centimeters taller than her, he slightly lowered his head resting it on her right shoulder and said with a coaxing tone.“It’s not bad to be shy with me, so why are you running off?” His warm breath assaulted her right ear sendin

CHAPTER THIRTY FIVE
Suspicion.Juma had a smug look on his face trying as hard to imitate what he was talking about. If the other students would have seen him, they would think that Stephany had bewitched their nerd.“Ew! That is so scary, people might escape and run away from us,” Stephany said in a more exaggerated expression.Juma looked at her for a longtime and the more she blushed the more his gaze intensified."That surely would be great, they would leave us alone," he said.…When seconds turned to minutes with silence and no lack of reaction from Stephany, Juma resorted to opening both of his eyes. He was met with a reminiscing expression from Stephany’s face and she had tears which were glistening on her eyes and with a blink, they would fall.He took in a long breath and pulled her closer in a deep bear hug. When she wrapped one of her arms around his waist, he chuckled.“You are quite a cry baby today huh! Mind you tell me?” He asked, rubbing her back like he

CHAPTER THIRTY SIX
Blame Game."Candy,"Stephany called, not answering Candy's question."Yes!" Candy answered."Don't you have that kind of feeling like something doesn't add up?" Stephany asked."My dearest big sister, all I feel and see nowadays is your bright eyes, flushing pink face and anxiousness whenever Namu is involved. I don't know if you have realized it yet," Candy started.Stephany did not stop her as she sat there listening. Candy was and could be said to be the only closest person to her that wasn't family. She knew Stephany even if she didn't know her real family, and so she thought, Candy knew why Stephany had to stay with her uncle and leave to stay independently in the city.And, whatever Candy was saying was true. She knows it was just that she hadn’t told her yet.“You might have loved Namu more than you thought and...it’s blinding you now. Your love for him did not diminish and your hate for him was because you missed him and he did not explain why he was away this long.""You loo

CHAPTER THIRTY SEVEN
Dreams.Juma was sitting on the couch in the living room looking at his tablet. He had changed into his casual clothes, ocean blue sweatpants and light blue shirt that hugged his chest exposing his firm sturdy breast muscle that threw many body building models to the dust.He had gray house slippers and he sat crossed legged with a serious face. On his hand was a touch pen that he kept playing with between his fingers.On the other couch lay Stephany who also had changed into a black pair of sweatpants with a maroon baggy sweater top with a larger neck region exposing her shoulders and neck. The sweater top had long sleeves that covered her entire arm only exposing the tip of her fingers.She was browsing on her phone on the most active cases that lead to everything related to amnesia. From the search she could read many causes of amnesia and several ways to help someone with amnesia recover his or her memories.From the causes, she learned that the most cases are when someone is subj

CHAPTER THIRTY EIGHT
Step One. Failed.Juma thought of his last dream that day. It was crazy but he felt like he was transported to the past!"I saw a slight shock on your face that time, I thought I was still dreaming but it seems like you will be helping me more than I thought," Juma seemed to have thought of something and said."I also thought I would use this chance to ask you the questions, and now that you're touching on the cause story, I have no choice than to proceed,"Stephany said in all honesty."Speaking of the school, I happen to know where it is. I-"When she was almost revealing that she also studied there, she intentionally stopped.Juma raised both of his brows in a 'looking forward to what you're saying' look. When Stella did not plan to continue, he seemed to lose control of his mouth asking,"You would love to take me there and be my tour guide?" He asked, totally misinterpreting her pause.When Juma started to speak, Stephany's heart hung on

CHAPTER THIRTY NINE
With Author's greetingsStephany was startled by his sudden emergence. She didn’t know he would be joining her that quickly.His voice gentle with the cold breeze brushing through her hair.He wrapped his left arm around her neck. Her body trembled slightly at the cold touch from his cold arm.His right hand raffled her hair and he leaned his chin on her head."Your body is hot," He said.Stephany lifted her right hand and touched his arm that was wrapped around her neck."And yours is ice cold. How long have you been standing out here?"Stephany countered with a question of her own."Not long. I guess I am just cold,""That's your answer?""Mmh!"Stephany did not probe further. But, she furrowed her brows deeper as she seemed to be thinking deeply.Silence swept between them."What's-" the both of them started all at once. Their abrupt meet in speech brought a chuckle from both of them."You first" They blurted together once again.A sigh left Stephany's lips."Shall we play?" Juma t
