Emelda and Lucy winked at each other, ready to execute their plans.
They both faced their food and continued eating. Lucy suddenly looked up from her meal..
“My hubby is coming back from France in two days” Lucy said
“Hubby?” Scarlett asked.
“Yeah, I told you I was married right?.” Lucy said.
“That’s cool! I’ll finally get to meet him” Scarlett smiled.
“Why are you dressed like that? Aren’t you going to work?.” Lucy asked.
“Today is my free day so no, I ain’t going” Scarlett smiled.
“Oh okay”

Howards University**
“I’m starving! Mel, do you have some money we could go eat at the canteen?” Phoebe asked but got no reply.
She looked at Melody and noticed she was deep in thought.
“Mel! Earth to Melody!” Phoebe flicked her fingers in front of melody.
She blinked twice before looking at Phoebe.
“Yes? You were saying?” Melody said.
Phoebe stopped walked and crossed her arms under her chest.
“What’s wrong Mel? You’ve been like that since morning..” Phoebe said.
“It’s just… You won’t believe it even if I told you” Melody sighed.
Phoebe pulled Melody to a nearby bench in which they sat down.
“So you can start talking, I’m all ears”
Melody sighed and began narrating the little incident that happened last night at Angelo’s room.
“Ahhhhhh!!!!!!” Phoebe screamed out.
“Shh!” Melody blocked her mouth when she noticed people staring at them.
“Like seriously?! Tell me you aren’t joking!! You were this close to kssing Angelo Watterson, the Angelo Watterson and you ran away” Phoebe said.
“Yeah, now I don’t know how to face him” Melody said.
“Why does good things only happens to you? I wish I was in your place at that time, I could have kssed the h’ll out of him” Phoebe gushed.
Melody chuckled and shook her head.
“But do you think he likes you?” Phoebe asked.
“What! No!, he’s always mean and cold to me and he keeps telling me I’m not his type. I think he just lost control at that moment” Melody said.
“I see..” Phoebe smirked knowingly. She looked front and her eyes glimmered.
“Look! There he is!” Phoebe said.
Phoebe looked front and saw Angelo with Ethan and Avery, walking to them.
“What?! No!!.” Melody screamed and quickly his behind the bench.
“Hey guys” Phoebe smiled and waved to them.
“Hey Phoebe” Angelo said and looked at where Melody was hiding, he obviously saw her hiding.
“Sxy! You seem to be in a good mood today” Ethan winked.
“Don’t ruin it” Phoebe said.
Avery just stayed quiet, somehow she doesn’t like these two. She looked at Angelo and saw him smiling, looking at a particular direction.
“Where’s Melody?” Ethan asked.
“Uhm… I don’t know.” Phoebe said awkwardly, she doesn’t know how to lie.
“I see…” Angelo said and walked to where Melody was hiding.
Melody heaved sigh of relief when she heard footsteps leaving. She jolted back when she saw a pair of sneakers in front of her.
She slowly looked up and her gaze locked with that of Angelo.
“Uhh…hi?” Melody waved, smiling awkwardly.
Angelo crouched down to her level and looked at her, he smiled afterwards.
Avery and Ethan just watched them with surprise on their face, same with some students who were passing by.
“You’re avoiding me because of yesterday right?” Angelo said.
Melody just stared at him and slowly nodded.
“I’m sorry I tried to kss you without your consent” Angelo said, stroking her cheek.
“What? A kss?” Avery exclaimed, jealousy glaring on her face.
“Are we good now?” Angelo asked tenderly.
Melody just nodded, unable to speak. She just stared at him, wondering if he got hit on the head coz he’s strangely speaking gently to her.
“Okay, meet me at the park nearby by 6pm” Angelo said..
He patted her hair and stood up, leaving with Ethan. Avery glared one last time at Melody before leaving.
“So you were saying he isn’t into you” Phoebe smirked, looking at her.
“What was that?.” Melody said, standing up.
“I’m sure he got h it on the head, that’s why he’s acting like this” Melody said.
Phoebe chuckled and held Melody’s hand.
“Let’s go eat”

Silver High**
The first class of the day was over. Monica walked out of the class with Ursula, she was obviously not happy…
“Moni, calm down!” Ursula said.
“Calm down? How I’m I supposed to calm down when that stúpid Jackson is now in our class. Coupled to that he’s sitting just next to me.” Monica said.
“Just ignore him.” Ursula said.
They both walked into the canteen and was surprised to see a whole crowd gathered round a particular table.
“What’s happening?” Monica wondered.
She curiously went to see what was going on and frowned when she saw it was the girls asking autographs from Jackson.
“You want my autograph?” Jackson smirked
Monica rolled eyes and left the area. She went to sit next to Skye while Ursula ordered their meal.
“Hey Skye.” Monica smiled.
“Hi.” He said, eating his meal while frowning.
“Anything wrong?” Monica asked
“Nothing”
“Really? You seem to be mad at me..” Monica said.
“I said it’s nothing okay?.” Skye snapped
“Wow!.” Monica exclaimed, already pissed off.
She stood up to leave the table but Skye caught her wrist.
“I’m sorry… I was just..” Skye sighed.
Monica looked at him.
“Listen, I’m not really comfortable seeing you with that Jackson guy especially yesterday. You two were so close to each other. I don’t really like him” Skye said.
Monica slowly smiled.
“Don’t tell me you’re jealous?”
“You won’t expect me to be happy seeing the one I love acting all ro..mantic on stage with another dude” Skye said.
Monica then remembered what he told her on her birthday.
“Skye about what you said on my birthday you see…”
“Here comes lunch!!!.” Ursula said, walking to them.
Skye released Monica’s hand. Ursula sat beside Skye while Monica sat opposite them.
They began eating their lunch while staring at each other while Ursula just looked at both of them.

Donovan’s mansion**
Scarlett yawned as she walked out of her room. Lucy left immediately after breakfast and Emelda is taking her siesta. Everywhere was just so boring!
She walked out of the house and saw Raymond gardening. Looks like he really loves gardening.
She climbed down the stairs and went to him. She stood behind him watching him do his thing.
“What do you want?” Raymond asked without turning to her.
“I’m bored… Can I help you?” Scarlett said.
“No”
“But why are you like this? Your sister is cheerful, your grandma is cheerful but you… You’re just so boring” Scarlett rolled eyes.
Raymond turned to glare at him.
“What? If you’re trying to scare me well you’re wasting your time” Scarlett said and picked the shovel.
“You’ll teach me how to garden whether you like it or not. So when do we start” She spoke authoritatively.
Raymond just looked at her with creased brows. He shook his head and sighed.
“Start by digging small holes” Raymond.
“Okay” Scarlett smiled and digged a hole.
“Done” She said after few minutes.
Raymond looked at the whole and raised a brow. It was kinda big.
“I said a small whole… Not a whole that resembles your pvsy” Raymond said.
“What?!” Scarlett said angrily and raised the shovel up.
Luckily Raymond caught it midair before it landed on his head.
“Are you insane?” Raymond asked her, looking down since she was way shorter.
“I’m supposed to ask you that. How dare you say that to me” Scarlett said, glaring at him.
Raymond just sighed, wondering why fate didn’t make him marry Stephanie instead.
“Did I lie? Your pvsy is just-”
“Dont finish what you were saying or else I’ll ki¢k that needle you call dk” Scarlett threatened.
“What did you just say?” Raymond said, getting angry..
“Needle” Scarlett smirked.
Raymond heaved in anger. He raised his hand and h it her head hard.
“Ouch!” Scarlett rubbed her head.
“That’s it!” Scarlett pounced on him and they both fell on mud.
They began rolling on mud with Scarlett pulling his hair and Raymond trying to break free.
The maids and guards present just shook their head as they tried not to laugh loud.
