★ I LOVE YOU ★
ROGER’S RESIDENCE***
Layla laid on the bed with tears streaming down her cheeks, her eyes went to the frame by the wall and she couldn’t help but to cry harder.
She stood up and walked to the frame, gently, she picked it.
“Dad” she whispered, caressing her Dad’s picture softly.
“I miss you so much. I wish you didn’t have to leave me all alone with Mom. I wish…” She choked on her tears.
“I wish you can just come back” she hugged the frame to her chest as she sobbed harder.
The ringing of her phone filled the air, she walked to the bed with the frame still in her hands. She picked her phone and wiped her tears when she saw Wyatt calling her.
“Why are you calling me?” She asked immediately she picked the call.
“Baby, please I’m so sorry. I didn’t mean to do that, I was just…”
“Out of your senses?” She completed it.
Wyatt sighed.
“I’m sorry, baby. Please forgive me, I promise never to do that again”
“Let’s just talk at school. Bye” Layla muttered before ending the call.
She threw her phone to the bed and covered her face with her palms.
She heard a knock on the door and the maid entered.
“I’m sorry Miss, but I just want to inform you that dinner is ready,” she said.
“What about Mom?” Layla asked.
“Madam said she’s not hungry,” the maid replied.
“I’m not hungry either, thanks” Layla said.
The maid went out of the room.
“I really hope everything goes back as it was once again,” she mumbles to herself.

KELSO, BROOKLYN’S RESIDENCE***
The family sat around the table, eating their dinner.
Jaime’s eyes went to Hailey’s seat and he sighed. He misses her a lot even though she left that morning.
“I miss her,” he muttered.
Sebastian and Leah exchanged glances.
“Did I hear you right?” Leah said.
“Did I say something wrong? Home is so boring without Hailey” Jaime said.
Sebastian smiled.
“And whenever she’s around, you always act like a devil. Now that she’s away, you suddenly miss her?” he said.
Jaime dropped the spoon on the table and stood up.
“I’ll just be in my room” he said and left.
Leah smiled.
“Those two” she mumbled.
“They can never do without each other” Sebastian completed.
They both laughed.

Jaime entered the room and plopped himself on the bed. He rolled on the bed countless times before picking his phone.
If Hailey was around, he wouldn’t be this bored. He’d have been teasing the hell out of her.
A call came in from Lilian, it was a video call. He swiped the green icon and Lilian’s face came into view.
“Big head,” she teased.
He smiled.
“You missing me?” He asked.
Lilian shook her head, she’s on her way to her room.
“Why would I?” She said,
“Or should I say you’re missing my cute face? Is that why you called?” He teased.
“Hey, don’t keep your hopes high. I was just bored so I decided to call you” Lilian said. She laid on her bed and rested her head on the pillow.
“You should have called Mickey instead, you know that”
“Fine, fine. I missed you okay”
Jaime laughed.
“I knew it”
“Gosh, I can’t wait for Monday. I’m just so bored here, worst still, my Dad won’t let me out” she complained with a frown.
“That’s because you’re a girl. Unlike me, I’m a boy and I’m free like a bird” Jaime smiled proudly.
“Tch! I know that, okay?” She rolled her eyes.
“Why don’t we play a game?” She suggested.
“Sure”
“You have to tell me nothing but the truth,” Lilian said seriously.
“I’m in,” Jaime said.
“Do you love Layla?” She asked.
“Seriously? Why that?”
“Answer me, do you love her?” She asked.
“Well, yes I do. Very much” Jaime said with a smile.
“Even though you’re aware she’s Wyatt’s girlfriend?”
“They broke up already”
“What? How did you know that?”
“Layla told me herself. He was hurting her so she decided to end it” Jaime said.
“Right. I noticed something weird about Layla yesterday”
“What?”
“Nevermind. I need to go, bye” the call got disconnected.
Jaime frowned.
“Just like that?”
His mind went to what she said about Layla.
“Something weird? What’s that?” He wondered.
