Penny’s POV:

I sat down in a restaurant with Maggie in front of me.

Since we got here she was just staring at me with open mouth.

“This is really you you have changed a lot.” she pointed out and I smiled.

“of course I will change, it is plastic surgery so what do you expect.” I responded and bite my steak.

“ this taste delicious when did this restaurants opened? I never saw it before I don’t even know that it is here” I said and she nodded.

“ well that is because it is my restaurants silly, I got this little place of mine because I wanted to start something of my own. so tell me you said he propose to you so did you say yes?” She asked curiously.

“Ofcourse you know I’ll say yes, i love him.” I told her and she smiled.

“What about your boyfriend?” I asked her,she sigh and sip on her juice.

At that moment I knew that something was wrong, she wasn’t herself she seems so dull there is this vibe that the old Maggie has that is missing her right now I guess.

“ what is going on you can tell me, did you bought break up?”I asked,she sipped on her coffee and dropped it right back then dabbed the corner of my mouth with the little towel on the table.

“ he was stupid, he was actually cheating on me under my nose but I never knew, I loved him.
I cared for him, but never for once was I appreciated, he never appreciates anything I do I could not stand it anymore, I had to leave.” She said and quickly wiped away her tears.

“ come on Maggie,you’re a strong woman. don’t like any man that doesn’t deserve you to cause you tears.
one day you’ll find a man that deserve you,that will love you for who you are.
stop crying you’re making me want to cry as well.” I said to her and she smiled.

It was nice to meet her again.

I missed her so much, she was like a family to me. she took care of me, my baby, everything and I was grateful.

she even took care of Arley and Bryce as well which shows how much she cares for those I care about.

I was grateful to have a sister that came in form of a friend, she’s everythinga sister is, a sister should be like her and not like Sasha that b**** is not my sister!

she’s just a stranger who is bearing the same surname with me.

I don’t care about her I don’t care about anything that have to do with James family I don’t care about my mum I don’t care about Sasha I don’t care if she rot in jail.

The family that have now are Arley, Maggie ,Marcus, puppy, Anna they are those that care for me and my precious son Chris .

I will do anything to protect them because they stood by me during my hard times, even though puppy is yes to find out who I really am but I know she will understand when I explain to her.

she’ll know why I did what I did and I know that she won’t judge me, she’ll be happy for me I am sure that she and Maggie will get along very well.

“ now enough about me, you haven’t told me how you escaped the incident. and I also heard that Zendaya was actually the architect behind the accident that day.

Mr King didn’t take it lightly with her he put her in jail straight away, I never expected him to be like that, that man really loves you penny I’m so jealous of you.” She said and I smiled.

I know.

I reported to work the next day, during lunch break Poppy and I left for the cafeteria.

“I asked of you from Marcus the Other night but he said you weren’t home, was calling your phone you weren’t picking up, where did you go?” She asked.

“I’m very sorry for not picking your calls babe, guess the two days I spent with Bryce actually cleared my sense of reasoning.” I said and chuckled.

“So where exactly did you go?”

I explained everything to her, her eyes widened like a saucer watching my lips move.

“You’re trying to say that you’re actually Bryce King woman? Oh my God! Go buy me pizza.” She exclaimed and I laughed loudly.

I knew that she’ll be like this.

“I add an accident which almost claimed my life, I ended up having plastic surgery, this isn’t my natural look.

My family is The James and I’m the last child……”

I continue telling her things about me.

“I can’t believe that you hide a lot from me Penny, I’m supposed to be your best friend, your bestie.” She whined and I laughed.

“About that, actually you ain’t my only best friend, we’re three.”

“Three! Wait is that a diamond ring on your finger?” She asked and grabbed my hand.

“11 carat diamonds, bitch did King proposed? I’m definitely the chief bridesmaid.” She said nonchalantly.

That is up for debate though.

But that isn’t the case right now.

No wedding date yet.

“Do you want to go meet our best friend? I can take excuse from boss.”

“Let’s go right away honey.”

You know what?

I don’t need a family that won’t be there for me when I need them.

I prefer friends with flaws but we always stick with me throughout the hard time.

Those are the type of friends that I have and I’m so happy for that.
