FEW DAYS LATER~ROOFTOP***
Just like Lucian wanted, he got discharged and was recovering greatly.
He tip toe towards Jamilia who was sitting at the edge of the Cliff of the rooftop.
He grabbed her, pretending he wants to push her down, and Jamilia screams in fear.
Lucian laughs loudly.
“Really Lucian, did you necessary have to scare me that way”.
Lucian rough her hair and said.
“I was just having fun”.
“You have been playful this past few days, did the doctor by chance leave a needle in your brain”.
“I didn’t get shot in my brain, so he didn’t”. Lucian said smiling.
“How’re you now”.
“Am doing fine, back to my feet completely”.
“And Seraphina, how’s doing”. Jamilia asked, and Lucian arch his eyebrows in surprised.
“Did you just ask after Sera”.
“Yes I did, how’s she, she really cried those few days you were unconscious”. Jamilia said with concerned.
“She’s fine, and she doesn’t need to cry anymore since am here now”.
And Jamilia smiles.
“You said you wanted to talk to me”.
“Yes, that’s because I have a confession to make”.
“What confession”.
“I hope you can forgive me Lucian, I didn’t intend to it”.
“Do what Mila”. Lucian asked.
Jamilia took in a deep breath in and out, and looks at Lucian who was still waiting for her to speak.
“Lucian remember when we all went to Manly beach, alongside with Seraphina, and how she was pushed inside the swimming pool”.
“Yes I do, am yet to find the monster who did that to her”.
“It was me”. She muttered.
“Huh”.
Jamilia looks at Lucian and takes in her lips.
“I was the one who pushed Seraphina inside the pool”. Jamilia said, and Lucian stood to his feet.
“Tell me your Jocking Mila”. Lucian asked trying not to believe what she just said.
“Am telling you the truth Lucian, am actually the one who pushed Seraphina inside the pool”.
“Why Mila, why did you do that to Sera!!”. Lucina yells at her.
And Jamilia hicups in tears.
“Are you also the one behind everything that has been happening to her too….. answer me Mila!!!”.
“No am not, I’ll never”. Jamilia said shaking her head.
“Let’s say you ain’t the culprit, but why did you push Sera inside the pool, the innocent girl hasn’t done anything to you, why Milia”. He yells.
And one could easily tell he was so angry right now.
“Because she stole you for me”.
“What are you talking about Milia, how did se…”
“You choose to love her and not me”. Jamilia said cutting him short.
And Lucian looks at her.
“I love you Lucian, I have always loved you, but you were too draft to notice how I felt about you, and even when you never believe in the word Love, I was still hoping you’ll one-day love me, but I was wrong, you became so closed to Seraphina, and I could see how you loved her, I was just so occupied by jealousy, that I pushed Seraphina to the pool and lied to her that you don’t Love her, that was why she got mad at you, am so sorry Lucian, I let my jealousy get the best of me, and I regret everything I have done, please forgive me Lucian, am so sorry”. Jamilia said crying.
Lucian looks at Jamilia, and sighs.
He knew he was supposed to get mad at her, but somehow he couldn’t.
He walks closer to her, made her stand to her feet, and gently hugs her.
“Am sorry too Milia, sorry if I didn’t notice how you felt for me, sorry for hurting you in someways”.
Jamilia broke the hug, sniffing back her tears.
“You ain’t mad at me”.
“Some part of me wants to, why the other doesn’t, your like a sister to me Milia, that why is hard to get mad at you”.
“Am sorry Lucian, I promise you, is never going and will never happen again, will Seraphina forgive me too”.
“I think is best if you don’t tell her now”.
“Why”
“She still looking for the Culprit who shot me, she may look innocent, but she has an anger issue, she might just vest the whole situation on you, and you already she’s the face of Australia right, so what she said is what people will believe”.
“So when do I tell her, I want to take off the heavy burden am carrying”.
“When the culprit is caught, and when we finally know who’s after her life”.
And Jamilia nods.
“Milia about what you said…..”
“Don’t worry Lucian, you don’t have to feel guilty, am doing my best to forget my feelings for you, and give Vance a chance”.
“Vance”.
“Yes, he told me he loves me, and am giving him a chance in my life, to see if am going to love him, just the way I love you”.
“Am sorry Milia”.
“Is fine, am happy for you and Seraphina, and I regret what I did, one thing I have learnt from Vance is that Love isn’t Forced, but earned by the hearts of two people”. Jamilia said and Lucian smiles.
“Where is that dude anyways”.
“His now a celebrity model, of course he’ll be busy, every modeling industies in Sydney wants him for their daily and weekly magazines”.
“Am happy for him, that what he always wanted anyways”.
“I know that right, should I become a model too”. Jamilia said fixstying.
And Lucian laughs.

SERAPHINA’S MANSION***
“How’s Lucian doing Seraphina”. Matteo asked.
“His Fine Uncle, thankfully, he has recovered fully, and back to work”.
“Am glad to know that, and am happy your save”.
And Seraphina smiles.
“The most important to me is that Lucian is fine now, and I hope the police men caught the culprit immediately”.
“Culprit”. Matteo asked.
“Yes uncle, Lucian was able to see the face of the man who shot him, he did a sketch on him, and the police are using that in searching for him”. Seraphina said.
“That’s good to know then, I wasn’t able to find the person who once shot Paisley, I hope the sketch helps this time around”.
“Me too”. Seraphina muttered.
“I will be going now Seraphina, take care of yourself okay”.
And Seraphina nods with a smile.
“Finally his gone”. Paisley said the moment Matteo left.
“Why”.
“Can you please don’t always tell that Uncle of yours, the things that happens in your life”.
“Why not Paisley, his a good man”.
“Well not everyone who act nice to you are good people”.
“Your so nice to me, does that mean your bad”.
“Seraphina!”.
“See you don’t like being judged, so stop judging my uncle”.
“Am not judging him Seraphina, I just want you to becareful, your life is stake, the only person I know your in save hands with is Lucian, the rest of them are counterfeit I don’t want to loose you Seraphina”.
“Don’t worry Paisley I’ll be careful”.
“Or should I speak with some agencies, to get you well trained bodyguards”.
“No Paisley, we talked about this, way before you went into Coma, I don’t need bodyguards, we ain’t in world war 3”.
“I know that Seraphina, getting at least two or three won’t hurt right”.
“Thanks for your concern Paisley, but I declined the offer”.
Paisley looks at Seraphina and sighs.
