(Semi – final)
Xavier’s pov
“Really Xavier, you really need to start being nice to Delaney. That girl is so beautiful and I like her innocence.
She isn’t like other girls that would flock around you like bees.
She’s totally different and you should hold on to her tightly before she’d be snatched away from you.
You should put aside your grumpy attitude and bring out that nice personality.” Rio smiled– but I knew he was damn serious.
I don’t really get why he’s suddenly advising me concerning Delaney when he doesn’t believe in relationship and love– just like me.
Is he interested in her?
No, I don’t want to believe so.
“Why are suddenly concerned about how my relationship with Delaney is? It’s none of your business if I’m being grumpy to her or being rude.
And just so you know, she’s not my type.” I scoffed and chung down my whiskey.
He shook his head and glared at me.

Delaney’s pov
I continued walking around, having no where particular in mind.
I stared around the the tall big houses and also big cars.
This route is definitely different from the route I took when I went out the other day.
I sighed softly as I continued to gaze around.
As I continued to walk, I took my gaze to different directions– not really paying attention to the direction I was headed– not as if I’ve got any direction in mind.
“Hey! Watch where you’re going!” I heard a loud angry voice and before I could turn to see who the angry voice was referring to, I already bumped into someone.
My mouth flew opened in shock as I stared at her spilled items on the floor.
Most of the items were already ruined and it littered the whole floor.
I didn’t really know all the items but I still know a few.
A can of milk was already bursted and it’s content already spilled on the floor.
An apple which was already divided into two parts because of maybe how hard it fell.
Other items I didn’t know we’re on the floor.
“Are you blind? You’ve ruined my stuff’s and you’re gonna pay for it!” The woman, who I had spilled her items, yelled angrily at me.
We were already causing a scene and I was so scared.
I didn’t even have any money on me to pay.
She looked angry as she stared at me.
I gulped down nervously, “please ma’am, I’m sorry. I wasn’t watching were exactly I was going to and I’m sorry I made you drop your items so hard on the floor that most stuff’s got ruined.
“Your f!lthy sorry wouldn’t be enough! You’re gonna pay for the damages you caused.” The woman snapped angrily and gripped me roughly by my arm.
“But ma’am, I don’t have any money with me to pay for the damages I caused you.” I begged politely.
“I don’t care! You’re gonna call any of your guardians or parents!” The woman yelled and it took her patient for her not to have smack me hard on my face.
I sighed and thought of what to do.

Xavier’s pov
“Seriously mom? Again? What the hell is wrong with that girl?” I rasped angrily over the phone.
“Please son, I’m not done with work and I want you to go help her out, please.
The woman already explained everything to me and it’s just for you to pay her back. And bring Delaney home.” Mom sighed.
“Okay mom. I’m doing this because of you.” I grumbled lightly.
“Thank you son, I love you.” She made ksses sounds.
“Love you too mom.”
I hurriedly got down the stairs with my keys with me.
I got to the garage and went for my motorbike.
I wore my helmet and climbed on it, I ignited it and drove off speedily along the road.
Mom already texted me the place Delaney and the woman were.
I’m so gonna deal with that girl!
Mom’s gonna take her out of the house today and it’s final!
She should go back to where she’s from.
She’s given us more headache and caused us nothing but trouble.
G0sh!
I wonder the planet she fell from that she’s always acting annoyingly.

Delaney’s pov
I breathed a sigh of relief as Xavier walked up to us.
He looked angry and I had to bend my head in guilt.
I felt so foolish.
He talked briefly with the woman and paid for the damages I made.
He started walking away and without being told, I hastily walked behind him, with my chest thumping loudly out of how nervous I felt.
Xavier really looked dangerously angry and it scared the h.ell out of me.
What will he do to me?
Hit me?
Or will I be sent out of the house?
I was really worried and tried my best to think optimistic.
I actually had Xavier’s mom number off head, Xavier’s mom asked me to learn it because of what happened the other time.
And I was glad I remembered it and then, I gave the woman the number and she put a call across Xavier’s mom but she assured me that she’s gonna send Xavier to come help me because she was still busy.
“Xavier…” I called but his burning glare made me keep shut.
I looked at what he had gotten on top and I was confused.
This was totally different from other cars I’ve seen
What kind of a car is this?
“Won’t you climb on it? Or you’re gonna just stand there looking liking a fool.” He rolled his eyes.
I was so confused as I continued to stare strangely at the car but this car was opened and it isn’t as big a the car at the house.
“C’mon Delaney, hurry up and climb in.” He groused angrily as he carried what looked like a calabash and wore it on his head– a beautiful calabash.
“Where should I seat?” I asked.
“Seat on my head!” He snapped.
“On your head? But if I seat on your head, how will you drive your opened car?” I asked, perplexed.
