?CHAPTER 55?
Anna could swear she’s choking from all the squeezing she was getting. She had really missed them all so much even though it was only a few days.
“Sway- I’m cho-king.” Anna managed to speak out and the moment Swayer loosened her hold, they rest came crashing on the ground but no one cared. They all got back up with smiling faces.
“Wow it’s nice to see you too Swayer.” Josey scoffed. It was then Swayer actually noticed her sisters presence.
“Josey!” Swayer widened her eyes.
“Don’t Josey me you traitor!” Josey snapped.
“Aunt Josey!!!” Chrystal, Maeve, Ivory and Fiona screamed at the same time rushing to hug her but Josey turned away as well.
“You all are traitors. I was here for a minute and you were only interested in squeezing the life out of Anna.” She frowned.
They all looked at themselves with a knowing grin and the next thing Josey knew, they came at her at once, including Anna. Josey had no where to run so they hugged her at the same time, trying to also squeeze the life out of her.
“We love you Josey!!” They all screamed and Josey found herself giggling hard.
“Enough already, I can’t breathe.” Josey laughed.
“Well that’s the point.” Swayer chuckled before letting go but this time, the other let go at the same time to avoid falling again.
“I can’t believe you’re here. What about work?” Swayers eyes widened. Did she get fired? Is that why she’s here instead of working on another case?
“Did…did you get fired?” Swayer whispered and Josey laughed out loud.
“Fired? Who would be crazy enough to fire a winning attorney like me?” She chuckled ruffling Swayer’s hair.
“You’re so cute with your questions.” She added before walking further into the living room.
The guys were still there, with their juice box not bothered about the noise the girls were making at the entrance.
Mr Griffin also entered the house fully. He’s been at the door waiting for them to finish their greetings as it would be rude to interrupt them.
“Wow, it’s a full house.” Josey smiled on seeing them. They all looked up at her wondering who she is.
“You disrespectful punks! Get off that couch and say hi to my sister!” Swayer yelled and they all stood up immediately. Swayer isn’t one to give orders or raise her voice but whenever she does, they all obey.
“I see you’re still bossy.” Josey chuckled.
“Nice to meet you, umm?” Kandle furrowed his brows not knowing what to call her.
“Josey.” Swayer said with a frown.
“Nice to meet you Josey.” They all said at once. Not like Swayer bullies them or they are afraid of her but they respect her so much due to her good humor.
“I don’t see the family resemblance.” Ethan smirked at Swayer.
“Well that’s because Swayer looks like our father and I look like our mother.” Josey smiled.
“Exactly! I was beginning to wonder where I’ve seen this face before.” Sebastian suddenly voiced out. He had seen Mrs Marshall once or twice and looking at Josey now, she’s almost her photocopy.
“I’ll take your bags to my room.” Swayer smiled lifting the heavy bag.
“There are other empty rooms upstairs, you can keep her bags in one of them.” Griffin said but Josey shook her head.
“It’s fine sir, I’ll stay with my little sister.” . With that, Swayer carried her things upstairs.
“So what did I miss?” Anna suddenly spoke up from behind Josey.
“Anna! You’re here.” Sebastian smiled, standing up and hugging her. He had heard the girls shouting Anna before but he didn’t want to conclude if she’s the same Anna he knows.
“Aww, did you miss me that much?” Anna giggled.
“It’s good to have you back Anna.” Shaun smiled and she bounced her head.
“Honestly, what did I miss?” Anna asked again.
“Nothing much, aside us almost getting ki||ed in a forest.” Ivory rolled her eyes. Anna frowned, facing Fiona and Fiona nodded in approval.
“Students, everyone should go get dressed. We are going out one last time today.” Miss Diane said as she entered the living room.
“Where to now? A volcano?” Chrystal rolled her eyes.
“What volcano?” Swayer asked as she entered the living room.
“No one is going to a volcano, now hurry up and go get dressed.” Miss Diane said and they all started heading upstairs.
“I just came down.” Swayer pouted her lips as she carried her lazy legs up.
“Do you want me to carry you?” Sebastian smirked.
“Yes please.” Swayer smiled raising her hands but Sebastian just walked passed her, laughing a bit.
“ You jerk! come back here and carry me!” Swayer ran after him and they both eventually climbed the stairs.
“See, you’re already up.” Sebastian laughed.
Ivory and Maeve just silently went to their room and Anna faced Fiona but didn’t say anything. She sensed a little tension but decided to let it slide.

“Where exactly are they going to?” Josey asked miss Diane.
“We want to give them one last test since they failed the first. They need to learn how to work as a team if they want to win the quiz. Teamwork carries points as well.” Mr Griffin replied.
“And where will this test be held?” Josey asked again. She’s here because Swayer got hurt and she wanted to make sure wherever it is they are going would be safe for her.
“Don’t worry miss D’vile, I assure you it’s safe. It’s a surprise actually.” Griffin replied with a smile.

“Holy molly!!!” Swayer screamed on seeing the speedboats set for them.
“Are we going to get into it?” Fabiola asked in disbelief.
“Yep. Just like before at the forest, you’re going in pairs. It’s a racing competition and we expect at least three winners this time.” Miss Diane said with a smile. They were testing them yes and also letting them have fun.
“I’m going with Sebastian.” Ivory immediately grabbed Sebastian’s hand leading to to the boat.
There were six boats lined up, two people per boat.
“Okay I’m not going to keep this bottle up anymore. Did something happen while I was gone?” Anna asked Chrystal who was glaring at Ivory.
“Let’s just go.” Chrystal sighed, taking Anna’s hand. Since kyle isn’t there and Chrystal on picked Anna, Maeve had to go with Ethan this time.
“She’s gonna need luck if she wants to win.” Chrystal chuckled as she remembered how Ethan let her do all the work during their forest game.
“This seems fun, do you know how to ride a speedboat?” Fabiola asked Shaun.
“Just hold onto me babe.” Shaun winked at her before taking her hand and leading her to the last boat.
“Who else will I hold on to?” Fabiola giggled, interlocking their hands.
“Those two are so cute.” Josey smiled watching Fabiola and Shaun. She returned her gaze to Swayer and noticed her taking a quick glance at someone before focusing on the boat.
Josey turned her head in the same direction and her gaze landed on Sebastian and Ivory who were laughing at something. They looked so cute together.
“So how does this game work?” She turned to miss Diane.
“There are obstacles set in the water. We made it in a way that the driver of the boat wouldn’t see so their teammates gets to give them proper direction.” She replied still carrying that smile.
“That sounds fun. And what kind of obstacle are we talking about here? Hope it isn’t something too dangerous?”
“Oh no. You see the speed boat is an electronic one. It doesn’t run on fuel so we’ve B-__-by traped the water with radio magnetic diffusers to automatically ki|| the power of the boat once in contact.” Mr Griffin replied.
“So if they are not careful, their boat won’t return?” Josey chuckled. It’ll be fun to watch them swim all the way back to shore.
“Okay students, listen up.” Mr Griffin called out.
“Remember, the purpose of this game is to enhance your abilities to work as a team. This might be a competition between yourselves but learn to assist one another as well and also have fun!” He added and they all bounced their heads.
“Watch out for the diffusers, once it hits your boat, you’ll have to swim all the way back so if you’re not a swimmer, better be careful.” Miss Diane said and Fabiola gripped Shaun’s shirt.
“Don’t worry, even if we get hit, I’ll help you out.” He assured her but she didn’t loosen her grip on his shirt. She’s afraid of the water, she’s been afraid since 6th grade when she almost drowned in it. It was Sebastian who saved her since they went to the same middle school.
“Okay everyone, are you ready?” Mr Griffin asked.
“Yes sir!” They chorused.
“In that case, let’s begin. Good luck everyone.” He said and they all Started their boats.
