A TIME REVERSE - CHAPTER 23&24
“Hey!”
Seyfried greeted Afried as he walked passed her to get something.
“Hey”
He replied,his voice sternly.he didn’t bother to look at her or ask her where she was coming from.
She watched as he left to the kitchen then came out with a water bottle. He brushed passed her and she staggered a little backwards.
She stared at him in disbelief. What’s up with him and the cold attitude? She thought.
Since it was late and everyone was asleep already,she walked to her room.
After freshening up,she jumped on her bed with a satisfied smile on her face.
She picked her phone and texted Daniel.
💌 Hey! You sleeping?
She sent.
~~~
Daniel was busy drying his hair when his phone buzzed.
He checked it and a smile crept on his face as he replied.
💌Too early,and I missed you
He sent
Giselle walked in that moment wearing a short gown. she was looking hot.
“Watcha doing?”she walked up to him and he quickly hid his phone.
He frowned “where have you been for the past few days?”He asked coldly and she smiled.
“I’m sorry but I spent time with my friends”She lied kissing him on the lips.
He sighed “wh@??ver, I’m going to bed now”he deadpanned as he climbed the bed.
“Seriously?”
Giselle mumbled and left.
After making sure she was gone,he texted Seyfried who replied sharply.
Minutes later,he fell asleep and it didn’t take long for Giselle to sneak into his room.
She took his phone and unlocked it,there she saw the messages he sent Seyfried.
He blood boiled in anger “That ?îtçh ! So after all what he did to you , you still won’t give up well,I won’t give up either even if it means having Daniel and your handsome boss all to myself”She thought within her and glared at the sleeping Daniel.
She scoffed” she could ki|| him right here and now and no one will know about it”

“Are you sure you wanna go alone? Don’t you wanna wake her up?”Netty asked Afried who ate his dinner In total silence.
Eugene and may glanced at him too. He was looking off, pissed and lost in thought.
“Afried!”Netty snapped bringing him out of his thought. “Huh?”He answered.
“Seriously? What the hell are you thinking about?”
Netty asked staring at him.
“Hmm nothing”He faked a smile.
“As expected”May thought.
Eugene just kept quite.
“About seyf…”
“I’m done”He stood up and pecked his mom cheeks before leaving.
“Do you think they had argument?”Eugene asked. “For sure,now hurry up and go to school else you will be late”netty prompted them.
✓✓✓
“OH $h|t!!!”
Seyfried cursed and jumped down the bed,she was already late.
She ran into the bathroom and in 5 minutes time,she was already out.
She picked up any dress she can wear easily before fleeing off the room.
*
“Sleepy head”netty teased as Seyfried ran down the stairs. Eugene and may already left for school.
“Good morning”Seyfried pecked her cheeks.
Netty gave a warm smile”dinner?”She asked but Seyfried declined saying she was already late.
“Did you guys fight?”
Suddenly,netty asked.
“Huh? What? No!”Seyfried blinked.
“Anyways you can go now”netty arranged Seyfried scattered hair before she left.
💋💋💋💋
“f-__-king leave my office!”Afried said angrily glaring at Giselle.
She came here to tell him about Seyfried and Daniel but he wouldn’t even give her a listening ear.
“Can you just lis…”
“Now!”He interuppted her but then… Seyfried bashed in breathing heavily like someone who ran a marathon.
His cold gaze switched to a loving one as she entered but they switched to the cold one again.
“You…”
Seyfried pointed at Giselle who was giving a sly smirk.
“How dare you c….”
“STOP!!!”Afried half yelled as Seyfried made to attack. Seyfried halted as she stares at him.
“I sent for her”he lied shocking the hell out of Giselle. wasn’t he the one telling her to leave his office a moment ago,what suddenly changed?
“You can leave”He told Giselle who nodded and exited the office.
Giselle of course gave a ‘f-__-k you’ to Seyfried before leaving.
Seyfried swallowed. Does he know about her story already,if so,why would he send for Giselle?
She bit her lips before going to sit on her chair.
“Work on this”he threw a file at her and she catched it easily. He returned to his laptop.
She stared at him for some seconds before going through the file.
Silence filled the air like that till it was time for home.
^^
When they got home,they were welcomed by blue surprisingly.
“What are you doing here?”Afried asked surprised.
Seyfried just kept staring at blue.
“I wouldn’t lie I missed you guys so much so I have to come here and guess what?… I’m spending sometime here”she promptly said happily.
“What the…but we aren’t even friends”Afried laughed,not knowing what was going through her mind.
“Are you sure?”She asked teasingly.
“But your dad…”
“Don’t worry about that old man,he is well aware of it”Blue giggled before she finally faced Seyfried who gave a ‘Now you remember me’ look.
“Good evening”Blue greeted with a warm smile on her face.
“Evening”
Seyfried returned the greeting.
“You guys are finally back”netty showed up.
“You know her right?”She asked pointing at blue and Afried nodded.
“Oh ok,hope you guys have a wonderful chat because I’m tired and need some sleep”Netty yawned and kissed Seyfried hair before leaving.
“Lemme show you to the guest room”Afried said. “What! Did you see any bag here? Don’t you trust your mom,she wouldn’t leave a visitor alone she already gave me a room”blue said nonchalantly.
“Oh”
Afried scratched his head.
Seyfried just walked away and his eyes followed her till she was out of sight.
Good thing tomorrow is Saturday,they won’t be going to work tomorrow.

NEXT MORNING**
“I Can’t find that new maid anywhere for the past few days and fint has also been slacking off home this days”Jojo said staring at her husband.
“Oh really?”Banaba asked faking a smile.
“Yh”Jojo nodded.
“Well it’s her business, don’t worry about them and about fint,I will talk to him”banaba hugged her through the back.
°°°°
“Listen…it isn’t safe for you out there ok,you need to stay here for now”fint said to jewel who was insisting to get a job.
“But…”
“Jewel please”Her mother begged and she released a hot sigh…”fine”
“Good then,can I talk to you privately?”He asked.
“Again?”She raised her brows.
She looked at her mom who gave her a go ahead sign before leaving with fint.
They entered the car and he locked the door.
“So…”she instantly said.
“I like you”he dropped the news and she chocked on nothing.
“Wh-what?”She found her self stuttering.
“You heard me jewel,I have liked you from the very first day I set my eyes on you,I tried controlling it but couldn’t, believe me I tried,I know you 4 years older than me but it doesn’t matter” Fint sighed as he said all those words.
Jewel eyes where already gathered with tears.she doesn’t want to hurt this boy in anyway but there is also no way she would have such relationship with him.
“Fint look…I can’t be in a relationship with you”She said facing the other side of the car.
His heart sank “why?” He found himself asking.
“I’m sorry I just can’t”She said and opened the door and left.
He didn’t say anything neither did he cry,he was a man right? Men don’t cry,he will try harder and harder till he gets her even if it means jailing his father for his despicable doings.
He waited minutes to calm his brain before driving off.
>>>
Seyfried walked inside the kitchen and was shocked to see the scenes before her.
Afried and blue hugging each other.
Afried bushed blue away when he saw Seyfried.
“Seyf….”
“I’m sorry,I didn’t mean to disturb I just wanted to see if mom was in the kitchen so I could help her with somethings I’m sorry I will take my leave now”She interrupted and ran out of the kitchen.
He clenched his jaw tightly.
It was a mistaken hug,he was in the kitchen to get water and when turning away from the fringe,he collided with blue.
“f-__-k!”
