Delaney’s pov
School was normal as usual. I didn’t eat lunch with Xavier because I wanted to stay in the class and round off the novel Xavier told me to read.
He gave it to me as an assignment and today, during lessons, he’s gonna ask me questions from the story.
I wasn’t hungry too to even what to have lunch.
Chelsea was down all through the day and she didn’t talk to anyone, not even her so-called friends.
I never liked the B3 girls or whatever they call themselves.
I wonder why Chelsea decided to be friends with them.
During the ride home, Xavier and I didn’t say a word. His face was stiff and I didn’t know if he was angry or something.
We got home and Xavier was the first to alight. I hurriedly alighted and trailed behind him.
“Erm… Xavier…” I stammered, not even knowing what to say.
“Not now Laney.” Xavier cut in.
“Okay.” I sighed lowly and continued walking towards the door.
Yeah, he’s angry and I wonder why.
Perhaps it’s because he also watched the video of Chelsea and a male doing something I really didn’t understand.
But according to the comments the students were making, it seems to be a bad thing.
I didn’t watch the video but I had a glimpse of it and I couldn’t even understand what was going on.
But I could tell it was what made Xavier angry because I had seen him talk to Rio like he usually does and certainly, it can’t be Rio that made him angry.
And me? I already apologized to him even if I wasn’t wrong and he said he had forgiven me, so he can’t be possibly mad at me.
And Chelsea, he hasn’t spoken even a word to her. So, definitely, he’s mad at Chelsea.
Well, it’s none of my business to worry about that because he’ll definitely come around except he wants his mom to twist his ears or he wants me to bite him more harder this time around.
Just kidding anyways, but I know he would soon come around.

Alicia’s pov
Oh my! I think I’m gonna freak out.
After I had paid the cabby which was about if not less than ten minutes ago, I was still standing in front of the big gigantic gate and not able to ring the bell.
I felt so nervous and my heart wasn’t helping matters as it continued to beat faster than normal.
I rubbed my palms and continued to stare at the huge mansion in front of me.
Oh God!
What if dad isn’t home?
What am I supposed to say?
And how will my father react?
Will he accept me?
What if I see Chelsea’s mother and she throws me out?
Oh God!
I’m just so confused.
Different thoughts running through my mind.
“Oh God, help me!” I prayed and sighed.
Mustering enough courage, I walked closer to the gate.
I breathed in and out and rubbed my sweaty palms together.
With shaky hands, I pressed the doorbell.
I pressed it again. I moved back a little when I heard footsteps.
A huge man in an all black outfit came outside and stood in between the small gate, glaring hard at me.
I shivered as I stared at the huge intimidating man.
His face was so hard and I didn’t need a soothsayer to tell me that he’s a bodyguard.
“Go…od…evening…sir.” I stammered, feeling so intimidated by his appearance and the stiff face he had.
“So? What do you want miss?” He asked, his voice cold and hard.
“Well, erm, I’m here to see Chelsea’s father.” I gulped down nervously.
“And who are you and why do you want to see him?” He groaned, his voice thick.
And his voice cause shiver to run down my spine.
“I’m his…” I was cut short with the sound of a car horn.
I moved out of the way while the gate surprisingly opened automatically.
But the car didn’t drive in. The windows was tinted and so, I couldn’t see whosoever that was in the car.
Two bodyguards stepped out and still staring at the car, Chelsea’s father – my father alighted gracefully from the car.
I became so tensed as I stood face to face with my dad.
He walked closer to me and stared curiously at me.
At that moment, I didn’t know how it happened, but I found myself hugging him tightly and muttered *daddy.*
