“Are you going to talk or you’ll continue with your shyness?” Alex asked as Jade refused to say anything.
“Are you hungry?” Jade asked.
He raised his brow as he stare at her for a while. He inhaled deeply and looked away.
“I’m fine” he mumbled.
Jade bit her lips. Why is she suddenly shy? She was ready to tell him about her feelings if he should wake up.
Alex glance at her to find her in deep thought.
“You okay?” He asked.
Jade exhaled deeply, building up courage to confess her feelings to him.
“I love you, Alex” she blurted out, shutting her eye close tightly afterwards.
Alex was stunned. He wasn’t expecting that from her
She loves him? That was unexpected from her.
“You’re brave, Alex and determined. I’m in love with you, honestly, after the day your girlfriend broke up with you, I found myself falling for you as we were slowly becoming close to each other. And….” Jade kept blabbering till Alex strained his head and kissed her shortly on the lips.
He pulled away to find her staring at him in surprise.
“You talk too much” he grinned.
“What’s that about?” Jade asked slowly.
“What do you think?” He arched his brow.
Jade smiled before looking away shyly.
“Does that means you love me too?” She asked, finding it hard to look at him in the eye.
“I don’t know” he replied truthfully.
Jade bit her lips in disappointment.
“Then what was those kisses about? Was it fun to you?”
“No, it was the most beautiful thing in the world” he smiled.
Jade sighs before standing up. What is he really doing? Playing with her feelings or what?
“I should take my leave, get well soon” she muttered before walking out of the room instantly.
Alex stares at the door for a while before grinning to himself like a fool.
“She loves me” he smiled to himself. He wouldn’t deny it that he also have a soft spot for her.

“Are you okay?” Camila raised her head to look at Javier since he’s quite taller than her.
“Yea, I’m fine. Just feeling uneasy as though something bad is gonna happen” Javier said.
“Something bad? Like how?” Camila asked.
“I don’t know, maybe because everywhere is so tensed this days. So, how are you doing?” He smiled.
“I’m good, what could possibly make me more happy when Valerie is sound and healthy?” She chuckled.
“You must really like her a lot” Javier muttered.
“I do, she’s amazing and did I forget crazy and dramatic?” Camila laughed.
“She’s one hell of a dramatic girl” she completed.
“You ain’t bad too” Javier mumbled.
She stopped walking and raised her head to look at him.
“You’re beautiful, you’re very talented, I mean you’re professional and you don’t joke with your job. And, your smile is beautiful too, very much” he muttered.
Camila cheeks turned red and she quickly turn her head away before he could notice it.
“And… You don’t have to hide your blush, you look cute when doing that” he said.
Camila looks at him and hit his shoulder slightly.
“Stop it” she chuckled.
“Why? I’m just saying the truth” Javier shrugged.
“Thank you, Javier” she said.
Javier smiled.
“It’s nothing, let’s go. I wanna know somethings about you, I realize I don’t really know much about you” Javier said.
He took her hand in his and flashed her a charming smile.
Camila’s heart skipped a beat and she cleared her throat, trying to regain her self.
“You have to tell me everything, don’t hide it, okay?”
Camila nodded, she glanced at him and smiled.
“I will” she muttered.

BELLA’S ROOM***
“Are you okay now?” Don asked Bella.
“I’m fine, thank you” Bella smiled gently at him.
“Fernando… Don’t you think he needs to know about this?”
Bella quickly shook her head.
“No, I can’t, I can’t tell him. How will I face him after that? I can’t risk it” she muttered.
Don sighs.
“If he should find out about this himself, it isn’t going to end well. Nando won’t take it easy knowing what Arturo did to you” Don muttered.
“I know, but I can’t. How will I tell my son I was R@P£D?” She shook her head.
“I can’t do that” she said.
The door was suddenly flung open with violence, Don and Bella got startled but was more shock when they found Fernando staring at them in anger.
“What did you just say?” He growled lowly.
“Arturo did what?” He asked, staring at Isabella with a very dangerous glare.
Isabella shuddered lightly. She has never seen her son acting that way.
What has he turn into while she was absent in his life?
“Ferdie…” She whispered, tears flowing down her cheeks.
“Talk mom before I lose it totally!” Fernando yelled.
“Nando, you need to take it easy. What you heard is nothing, you…”
Fernando cuts Don off with a dry laugh.
“Nothing? That bastard f-__-king R@P£D my mom and you call that nothing??!” Fernando yells in anger, veins popping on his neck.
“Ferdie, please..” Isabella begged in tears
This was what she has been avoiding, how will he face her now?
Will he h@ťě her?
“Don’t say anything, mom. Cos right now, I’m f-__-king going to that bastard and I’m ki||ing him right away!” Fernando stormed out of the room in anger.
Don faced Isabella.
“I’ll go after him, just don’t think much about this” he said before rushing out of the room.
Isabella fell to the bed, sobbing real hard.
“Ferdie, please forgive me” she sobbed.
****
“Nando! Stop right there!” Don shouted as he ran after Fernando
Fernando ignored him totally till he got to his car.
“If you enter that car then I’m gonna leave you alone. I’ll take my daughter and we’re going to go somewhere faraway where you won’t be able to reach us” Don shouted
Fernando stopped on his track as he stood motionlessly.
“Just leave and you won’t see us anymore” Don warned when he got to him.
“He R@P£D my mom…”
“I know, that’s why you don’t have to act rashly. We need to plan how to attack them without any of us getting hurt. Arturo is a scheming bastard, he won’t just be sitting down without doing anything. Just think straight, I know you’re hurt but don’t let your anger to take the best part of you” Don said.
Fernando folds his fist tight. Heaven knows what he’s going to do to Arturo once he lays his hand on him.
“Fine. What are you suggesting we do now?” He asked.
Don smiled.
“Why don’t we play some games?” He smirked.
Fernando stared at him, wondering what he’s up to.
