THE X-FAMILY SEASON 2 : EPISODE 21 – 40
Episode 37
By Faith Lucky
Khalid’s eyes were filled with so much fury and hate as he gripped her roughly, unable to control the voices in his ne¢k
“No… please” Becca wanted to say out loud, but couldn’t due to the restricted air flow in her Iungs.
His hold on her was too strong, she couldn’t get rid of a finger.
“PL..ease…” She said muffledly and suddenly, just as if the pains got reduced from his head, he let go of her ne¢k and pushed her away like she burnt him.
“Hah!” She exhaled deeply as she fell on the floor, her towel getting loosed from her body as well.
Conniption gripped her, her heart raced heavily
Oh God… What just happened?
Khalid got on his feet immediately, his knuckles trying to itch his eyes.
He turned and looked at Becca on the floor and couldn’t believe he almost $tr.angled her.
A part of him wanted to hold her and apologize, but still feeling disorganized, he just turned around and left.
“The Masters?” Izna asked as they walked along. “Why are you asking?”
Octavia tried not to think about Khalid so she doesn’t get to read it from her head and knows she’s thinking about him or something.
“Uh… nothing – really. I just…. wanted to know. But it’s fine if you can’t tell me” she answered with a light smile.
Izna stared at her observingly and noticed she was blocking her thoughts.
“Well…” She began. “They actually stay at the Westside. Although, you won’t be able to get through to any of them because they’re securities everywhere that prevents Clan members from going in to see any of the Masters”
Wow! It was that strict? Octavia thought.
So there’s actually no way she could see Khalid?
“Khalid?” Izna suddenly asked, getting the name from her head.
“Hold on… Master Khalid?? You… want to see him?”
Octavia bit her lower lip. Dmn! It was impossible keeping thoughts away from one’s head
“Um…. I’m from the Khalid clan. So, I was just wondering how my Master is fairing.
That’s all” she cooked up a quick lie, but it was obvious Izna wasn’t buying it.
She was about saying something when a guy bumped into her, spilling his drink on her shirt.
“Oh my! I’m so sorry” the boy exclaimed, quickly bringing out a napkin to wipe the stains.
“Goodness, Pete! Have you gone blind?!” Izna snapped with an eye roll.
“Hey, I’m sorry okay? It wasn’t intentional” he replied as he wiped her dress with his napkin.
Octavia didn’t say a word. Well, because she wasn’t used to speaking to strangers. So, she just watched him.
“I’m really sorry okay? I was kinda in a hurry” he told her, unable to clean off the entire stains.
“It’s fine” She finally managed to mumble, and he smiled and left.
“Guy’s a je.rk. He’s actually my Master’s brother. Come on, let’s go” Izna said and they proceeded to the cafe afterwards.
Getting there, they ordered for some food but Octavia couldn’t really find the ones she needed.
As a matter of fact, she found the food lacking nutrients to her.

“You don’t like it?” Izna asked with an amusing look and Octavia shook her head.
“Really? But what’s wrong with it? They’re sumptuous enough”
“I… I just need something else. But, I’ll manage these anyway” she replied and started devouring the meals in a hungry way.
