Damon stopped walking upon seeing the principal and wondered why she was still adamant about exposing the video. Why is she really being stupid? Anyways it's giving him time since he hasn't had the chance to talk to Sophia about how it went with Romeo.The principal stopped as he saw him looking and sighed shakily wondering why a kid is making her feel that way. They don't act like seven years old kids at all. Too mature for their age. She frowned at him, but he crossed his arm and gave a raised brows.The principal walked toward him not wanting any problems. "The school is almost over for the day. You don't have to report your dad, cause tomorrow I'll deal with this."Damon shook his head. "I feel like talking to my dad about it. So, it's best you just take care of things tomorrow before he sets his feet here again."The principal blinked in disbelief. "What? Weren't you taught well at home? What gives you guys the right to threaten your elders? Do I look like your mate?"Damon sighe

(12th July. Tuesday)Alexa watched as Leo dressed up for work, her mind whirling with images or rather imaginations created by some recent weird, suspecting activities, behaviors, and whatnot she's been noticing.When did it all start?Oh right! From the day Leo's dad died, and then the next day, someone drove a car past them. Even though Leo's explanation was convincing, there was still something weird about it.And then Carmen. All the coincidental meetings she had with her and the fact that Leo gravely warned her to stay away from Carmen.He's been busy. His mood changes from bad and then, sometimes good, but he's repeatedly in a bad mood and always seem lost in his thought.It reminded her of then when he kept things from her. That feeling she had, although back then, he made it obvious he was keeping things and they were still getting to know each other, but this time is different.She doesn't want to feel this way, but she can't help it. There could be something bad going on that

The principal leaned against her chair, her eyes peering at Romeo Collins "Do you know what the name Romeo means?"Romeo nodded slowly, his head lowered to the ground. "Yes. My mom reminds me all the time.""Hmm. She must have a reason to give you a name as such. She probably wanted you to be a great lover of some sort, so tell me, are you truly your name? Are you what your mom expected from you?"Romeo couldn't understand the question."If it is truly true and you framed Damien Hodge, then what does that say?"Romeo looked at her and opened his mouth, but it got stuck...he wanted to say something, but was trying to hold himself against it."Tell me the truth, kid. Why does the video show you were putting that illegal substance inside Damien Hodge's locker?" The principal asked him.Romeo blinked as he was caught between two thoughts. He didn't know which to pick.A knock on the door made the principal remove her gaze from Romeo, and toward the door. "Come in."The door opened and rev

Alexa picked her ringing phone up from the kitchen counter and furrowed her brows at the caller ID. She tilted her head at it, wondering how he got a hold of her number. She never gave it to him, he gave her his instead.She blinked and decided to pick up, curious to know what he wanted. "Hey.""Hi, Alexa. I really waited patiently for your call."Alexa rose a brow like she just heard the craziest words ever. "You waited? I don't remember having anything to talk to you about, Stefan.""I understand, but let's say I just wanted to hear your voice and was really hoping you just called, you know, in the name of...friendship."Alexa furrowed her brows in wonder at the statement. "Hmm. How did you get my number?"She heard him chuckle. "I have my ways.""I wanna know what that way is." Alexa insisted.She heard him sigh. "There's really no need to bother yourself about it, Alexa. I just..."Alexa shook her head beginning to accept that Leo was really right. "You know definitely that I'm ma

As everyone arrived home, Alexa just stood on the porch waiting for them to come out of the car.In no time the kids sprinted toward her with a happy smiles on their faces which definitely brightened her mood.The kids ran toward her and hugged her. "Mom today was fun," Damian told her."Fun?" Alexa asked confused."Our principal is gonna get fired," Damien informed her with a big smile on his face."Why? What happened?" Alexa was still confused.Damon sighed not kinda expecting Damien to run his mouth about it. That'll make them lie to change the situation."She did something wrong, mom. She accepted a student without proper..." Damon paused lost for words."Protocol." Leo chimed in, causing Alexa to look at him."What does that mean? Do you know about it too?"Leo nodded. "They couldn't stop talking about it." He said out of fact."Oh." She looked back at them. "Which kid?""The fourteen years old. Joseph Rhodes." Damon answered, while Aria just walked inside typing something on her

"Why did you go, and get drunk Alexa?" Leo asked for the umpteenth time, causing Alexa to roll her eyes once again as he repeated the question."I told you I'm not that drunk. I just went to have fun with my friends, Leo. Is it a crime?"Leo sighed staring at how rough and unkept she looked. He sat beside her on the couch he dropped her on. "I don't like it, Alexa. I don't want you going to clubs, especially with those friends of yours. They're a bad influence."Alexa didn't reply. She just kept her head resting on the couch, her eyes peering at Leo, ruffling through some thoughts in her head."You're still gonna get a hangover though. You should rest for now." Leo told her.Alexa just nodded and ran her hand through her hair. "Yeah. My head feels like there are some little people in it."Leo chuckled lowly. "Hmm. And you're saying you're not drunk.""Not that drunk." Alexa corrected."You're being a child, babe. Why do I feel like this is a trace of rebellion? Are you rebelling again

Leo looked at how wasted Alexa was and sighed not seeing any reason to be angry at her. He sat beside her on the bed and wondered what was going on in her mind. It's obviously about him. He'll be lying if he said he doesn't understand where she's coming from. She's just been overly worried."How are you feeling?" He sincerely asked her with a worried expression.Alexa looked at him kinda amused. "You're talking to me now?""Why not? You're my wife."Alexa smiled. "Yeah. I'm really sorry...""Shh. No need to keep repeating that. I know you are, but please make do with your promise."Alexa nodded. "I'll try to."He sized her up and wondered why she was still a mess when she was all freshened up. "You seem really tired. Let's go to sleep."Alexa gulped feeling the urge to vomit again. Truth be told, she's vomited like four times. She felt she was coming down with something. "I wanna ask."Leo rose a brow as it was sudden, but he sighed wondering if it was still about the issue. "I though

(22ND JULY. FRIDAY.)"Hello, Lance. How's everything going on there?" Leo asked over the phone. He was on the porch waiting for his kids to be done eating so they can proceed to school and he can proceed to work."Um, sir. Bad news."Leo furrowed his brows. "Bad news?""The club is temporarily closed."Leo chuckled finding it hard to understand what he was saying. "Why is my club temporarily closed, Lance?""It's a police investigation. Last night, two girls were...they were...""They were what?!" The anger was evident in his voice."They were murdered."Leo paled. "What? Mur..murdered?""Yeah. Police homicide detectives are investigating the case, so that's why the club was temporarily shut down in order to find who did the killings."Leo sighed. "Well, I hope they do their job fast and quick."He heard Lance sigh. "There's also something you need to know, boss.""Oh. Bad news again?""It's information.""OK. Go on.""The girls that were killed were the only two girls you've slept wi

Kara looked at the siblings as they quietly eat their lunch without a conversation and wondered exactly what was going on in their heads. They probably don't have anything else to do since Noel...no Joseph...no Noel. It's her thought and no one is telepathic to hear it.Well, they probably don't have anything else to do since there's no Noel to keep them planning. But somehow, she has to get something from them. Even if it's a tiny bit of information.She cleared her throat making them look at her. "Um, you guys are awfully quiet."They looked at each other in confusion, including Charlotte who was at the table."Do you have something to talk about?" Damien asked with raised eyebrows."Can I talk?" Kara asked inquisitively and hopefully.Damien chuckled. "Why not?""Yeah, like someone zipped your mouth or what," Aria said with a frown.Kara looked at her but quickly blinked away. "I, um, yeah, I was just wondering because I'm so very curious about why Joseph just left. It's like he kn

"Hey, Lance. Been expecting an update." Leo called looking at some files on his desk."It's a...it's very bad news, Boss."Leo sighed. "Just spit it out, Lance. Is the murderer caught already?"She heard him sigh. "There was another murder."Leo furrowed his brows and removed his concentration away from the file. "How come? My club is closed temporarily.""Yeah, but it's just that someone else you got close to died."Leo scoffed. "Who, damn it?! Just get straight to the point!""It's Rhea, your ex, boss. She's dead."Leo gaped. "Dead." It kinda impacted him hard.It wasn't what he expected."Yes, dead. Her body was found. I think the cops is gonna want to have a chat with you since someone seems to be killing everyone...""I've slept with?""Yes, apparently."Leo sighed and hung the call up as it caught him in deep thought.Who the hell is killing who he's slept with?Then his wife......Alexa opened her eyes to a spiraling world, or better yet, room. She straightened her head up f
