“How do I get her now? ” Cheng questioned himself…..
***************
<<<Z&D APARTMENT>>>
Zoe signed loudly as she sat on the couch, looking around she breathed out in relive as Drake was in his room, she didn’t feel like answering his questions now, she knows that he asks because he cares, but sometimes it’s bothersome.
“Who is that redhead lady and why does she look familiar, I felt so many emotions when I saw her, but why?? ” Zoe questioned loudly.
“Could it be…??No mom is dead it can’t be her” She muttered again, she was still speaking to herself when the door bell rang.
“Oh lord, I hope she isn’t here again” Zoe mumbled as she walked to the door.
Pulling it open she saw and unknown face.
“Who are you?? ”
“Am here to see Drake, is he home??”.
” I asked who the hell… ”
“Axel?? ” Drake who stood some distance behind Zoe called. Zoe quickly turned to Drake.
“Do you know him?? ”
“I do and I’ll explain everything later Zi” Drake replied, walking past Zoe he held Axel’s hand and pulled him back to his car, leaving a stunned Zoe behind.
“Well that kid is all grown up” Zoe muttered slamming the door shut.

“What are you doing here?? ” Drake asked immediately they got to the car.
“I came to see you” Axel shrugged.
“Why?? Why would you come to see me?? ”
“Cause I missed you” Axel replied nonchalantly.
Drawing in a large amount of breath “You should get going now” Drake replied.
“Don’t send me off Drake, I wanna.. ”
“Its getting late Axel and I don’t…. ”
“I have something to say to you Drake don’t cut me off”Axel cut in.
” I don’t wanna listen to you jerk”
“Really?? “Axel questioned moving forward causing Drake to move backward till his back came in contact with the car. Drake found himself trapped between the car and Axel’s masculine body.
Using his hands Axel trapped Drake on both side then tilted his head sideways.
” Even if it includes me saying I LOVE YOU?? ” Axel confessed causing Drake to draw in a sharp intake of breath.
Suddenly Axel was pushed away from Drake to reveal an average height lady, which turns out to be Zoe.
“That’s not how you confess your feelings jackass” Zoe said with her hands on her hip.
“Try again next time, but in a more romantic way” And with that Zoe pulled Drake inside and slammed the door loudly, leaving a speechless Axel outside.
Inside Zoe stood in front of Drake who had already settled on the couch.
“Never accept a proposal if it isn’t romantic enough,understood??”
“Yes Zi” Drake replied.
“Am off to bed, goodnight”Zoe muttered storming to her room.
Drake quickly stood and rushed to the window just to find Axel’s car driving off.
” He must be joking”Drake mumbled sitting back dejectedly on the couch.
<<<CALIFORNIA>>>
“Kitten”
“Hmm” Xia answered looking up from the novel she was reading.
Lifting her off the chair Draco sat her on the reading table then stood inbetween her legs.
“What?? ” Xia asked blinking in confusion.
“I want you to return to China”
“Why??, don’t you wanna stay with me?? ” Xia asked tilting her head sideways.
“I do wanna stay with you, but you also need to… “.
Xia pushed Draco away slight then jumped down from the table ” Am not going back there Draco”
“Draco?? ”
“Yes, am not going back there, am going to stay here in California with you forever” Xia uttered angrily.
“You have to understand Xia, I can’t be with you forever” Draco yelled helplessly.
“Huh?? ”
“Kitten I.. ”
“You promised…you’re gonna stay right?? ” Xia asked with shakey voice.
Pulling her close, Draco placed a light kiss on her forehead, pulling away he cupped her face while Xia circled her arm around his waist.
“I won’t leave okay?? ” Draco assured.
“Okay” Xia nodded hugging him, oblivious of the sad look in Draco’s eyes.
<<<STEVE MANSION>>>
Cherry had obviously told Xia and Dora about the pool incident, and she had also told them about she and Luwies contact, and they where really happy for her, though Dora seemed unsure that it would last.
Luwies had opted to take her home, and Cherry couldn’t be more happier.
Meanwhile Luwies had wanted to tell Cherry of his feelings since she was the only woman he could actually touch, but remembering when Dora spoke about Cherry’s crush, he always felt sad and taught he couldn’t get her.
“Thanks for dropping me off” Cherry said as she shut the car door.
“See you tomorrow” She smiled wanting to walk into the compound.
“Hold on Cherry” Luwies called as he quickly got off the car and walked to Cherry who stood beside the gate.
Luwies stared at her for some seconds then pulled her into a hug, after a moment or two he released her.
“Goodnight Cherry” Luwies smiled, getting into his car he drove off leaving a smiling and stunned Cherry…..
