TWILIGHT HIGH**
“Really missed you throughout the whole of today” Gavin said, walking with Iris. They were both holding their hands…
“Me too, it’s okay. I understand you have to read for your upcoming final test” Iris said.
“I’m gonna miss you when you’re gone” Iris said sadly.
Gavin looked at her then smiled. He faced her and then cupped her cheek before kssing her forehead.
“Don’t be sad okay, the final test is still some months away and besides I’ll make sure I come visit you often” Gavin smiled.
Iris looked at him for a while then smiled too. They intertwined their fingers and then continued their way…
“I’m taking you to my secret house today. No work for you…” Gavin said as they walked out of the school.
“But..”
“No buts..” Gavin placed his finger on her lips.
Iris looked at him and smirked. They both walked out of the gate. Gavin abruptly stopped when he saw someone.
Mr Baxter was leaning on his car with his hands in his pocket and that usual passive look on his face. He felt someone starring at him, making him look at them..
“Babe, just give me a minute I’ll be back” He kssed Iris’s hand and then released her before walking to Mr Baxter..
“Sir…” Gavin said.
“I see she’s the famous Iris everyone has been talking about” Mr Baxter said, looking at Iris who was looking their way.
“Yeah, I came here to ask you something. Are you behind the attempted murder of my girlfriend?” Gavin asked.
Since yesterday, he kept having that hunch. He even hired secret agent to follow and guard Iris without her knowledge…
Mr Baxter smiled and looked up at the sky. Despite his age, he still looked so handsome..
“Well partly..” He said.
“Huh?” Gavin exclaimed.
“You see,, it is one of my men who’s responsible for the shooting. He did that to eliminate her out of the picture with hopes of you noticing Emery. Looks like things didn’t turn out as planned so he shot your friend Luca. I klled him” Mr Baxter said…
“What? You klled the man! But why? You could have just taken him to prison!” Gavin exclaimed.
Mr Baxter looked at him for a while and looked away.
“I klled him for two reasons, the guy he shot is the son of a good friend of mine and also because he disobeyed two rules of my clan. I’ve never fancied prison, prefer to do the job myself” Mr Baxter said.
He looked back at Gavin…
“I won’t deny it.. I’m a bad person, a monster… I kll whoever I see is a threat to me.” Mr Baxter said and stood properly.
“Dont worry, I won’t harm your girlfriend. I was once in love so I know how it feels. Too bad you two won’t last…” Mr Baxter said…
“Dad..” Charlotte smiled, coming to them.
“Charl, I was waiting for you. Come let’s go” Mr Baxter smiled.
“Okay, bye Gavin” Charlotte waved and entered the car.
Mr Baxter looked one last time at Gavin before entering the car. The driver drove off afterwards…
“This man is a puzzle…so hard to understand” Gavin furrowed his brows and walked back to Iris.
“He’s Charlotte’s and Emery’s father right?” Iris asked.
“Yeah, it’s one of his men who tried klling you. Don’t worry you’re safe now…” Gavin said.
He held her hand and smiled at her.
“Come let’s go” Gavin said
Iris nodded and they walked away together…

RICARDO’S MANSION**
“Finally home” Valentina groaned loudly, removing the thick blouse she was wearing.
The kids begged for her to come and sleep over for tonight..
She walked to the fireplace and moaned as the fire warmed her up. Myles and Minnie went upstairs to their room..
Ricardo hugged her from behind and planted a kss on the nape of her neck.
“Stop that..” Valentina giggled and faced him.
“I want to have my bath” Ricardo said.
“Okay, go on..” Valentina smiled.
Ricardo sighed and rolled his eyes before scooping her in his arms
“Rick…wait let’s discuss,,, babe..love!! Rick!!” Valentina kicked her legs.
“Just stay quiet…”Ricardo smirked and entered his room, closing the door behind..
At that time, Myles and Minnie came out of their room already cleaned up and changed.
“What should we do next?” Minnie asked
“Let’s go and disturb mom and dad” Myles said.
They nodded and walked to Ricardo’s room before knocking.
“Mom, dad!! Can you help us with our homework? We’re stuck somewhere” Myles said while Minnie giggled silently.
“Later Myles” Ricardo said.
“Dad, its urgent…” Myles said.
“It can wait Myles”
“But dad…”
“Myles?!!!!”
Myles and Minnie laughed and rushed off before Ricardo comes out of his room. They went to the living room and began watching some cartoons..

LATER**
Valentina was sitting in between Ricardo’s thigh as they watched the stars at the balcony…
They played all night with Myles and Minnie till the kids felt sleepy and went to bed..
“Val?” Ricardo called after a long moment of silence..
“Mm…”
“Why is it that I’ve never heard of your father….” Ricardo said.
“Well mom said he died” Valentina said.
“Oh sorry…” Ricardo said.
“It’s nothing. I grew up without a father so it’s not big deal… Like they say, what you can never miss what you never had” Valentina smiled and snuggled closer to him, feeling sleepy…
“I can hear your heartbeat.” Valentina smiled.
Ricardo chuckled and stroke her hair..
“Beats only for you my love” Ricardo smiled..
Valentina looked up at him and pouted her lips which he kssed before she placed her head back on his chest closing her eyes…
“Goodnight Rick” Valentina said sleepily.
“Goodnight my queen” Ricardo kssed her hair and continued staring at the stars.

MORNING, THE WILLIAMS**
Iris woke up to a bright morning. She got out of her room, dressed in a pink long sleeve top with a blue pair of jeans and white tennis shoes. She tied her hair in a ponytail, short she looked cute…
Well today was a school day but her and her friends decided to boycott classes so that they can spend the day at the hospital.
“Mom, good morning” Iris smiled and kssed Peggy on the cheek.
“Wow, looks like you’re in a good mood today” Peggy smiled.
“Yes mom” She smiled. Spending the rest of yesterday with Gavin at his secret spot was so r©mantic!
She sat down and ate with great appetite. The bell suddenly rang.
“I’ll go get it” Iris stood and went to open the door. To her surprise, it was Gavin.
“Hey babe” He smiled.
“Gavin?” She muttered.
“Won’t you let me in?” Gavin said.
“Oh…” She quickly made way for him to enter.
“Good morning ma’am” Gavin greeted.
“Oh its the Gavin guy…please join us for breakfast” Peggy smiled…
“Thanks ma’am” Gavin smiled and took a seat.
Iris brought an extra plate and cutleries then placed it in front of him. She dished him the food before sitting down.
“Thanks” He said and dug in.
“Tasty…!”
“It’s Iris that made it. She’s a real wife material right?” Peggy said.
“Mom!!” Iris snapped
Gavin chuckled and took another spoon.
“Indeed she is” Gavin said..
“So I came to formally present myself to you. I’m Gavin Robinson, Iris’s boyfriend” Gavin smiled.
“Not only is he handsome but he’s also a responsible man… Iris you hit the jackpot” Peggy said.
“Jeez! Mom!”
Peggy and Gavin laughed loudly. They continued eating their meal while chatting happily.
Once they were done with their meals. They said their goodbyes to Peggy before leaving for the hospital.

RICARDO’S MANSION**
“Breakfast is ready!!” Valentina exclaimed as she brought in the meals. The maid equally helped her.
“Mommy cooked?! Wow, it’s gonna be yummy!!” Minnie exclaimed.
“I’m farmished!!” Myles groaned.
Ricardo was silent, he was busy staring at Valentina. She was wearing one of his shirt which ended at the middle of her thigh and the shiry equally brought out her features…
“Maybe it was a bad idea giving her that to wear.” Ricardo said and sighed.
Valentina sat down next to him and they began eating happily while chatting like a family would do…
Once they were through with their meal, Minnie and Myles stood and picked up their backpack.
“Bye dad, bye mom!!” Myles and Minnie chorused as they went for the driver to take them to school..
“They’re just so adorable” Valentina smiled and stood up.
She made to leave but Ricardo held her hand and made her sit on the table.
“Now that the kids are gone…”
He stood in between her th!ghs then dipped his hands in her hair before kssing her.
He placed ksses on her shoulder going back up to her lips before kssing her back.
“Always know that I love you” Ricardo smiled at her.
Valentina smiled and hugged him. She really is blessed to have someone like Ricardo.

RITA CARES**
“So Luca is still not awake” Kimberly said sadly when they walked in his ward.
“I kinda miss him… Who will I tease and disturb” Charlotte said sadly..
“You’re right” Riley pouted.
“Just wake up bro” Maxwell said
Josh and Karl looked at themselves and sighed.
“I really wish you weren’t the one who took the bvllet for me” Iris said.
Gavin pulled her in for a hug… The next thing that followed was silence.
Suddenly someone chuckled. They looked at each other in surprise. The next thing they heard was giggles.
Their head quickly turned to the bed and they met Luca giggling weakly.
“Luca!!!” They all exclaimed.
“Never knew I was this loved. So you guys wanted me to be shot before you showed your concern?” Luca said lowly.
“Idiót!! You gat us all worried” Charlotte exclaimed. Her and Iris hugged him.
“Ouch…easy girls easy” He said.
“So all this while you were pretending?” Maxwell asked.
“Yeah, I woke up last night…” Luca smiled.
Riley smiled from where she was standing. Her wish was answered and that’s enough for her. She didn’t have the courage to come closer for she still feels so guilty…
Charlotte looked at Riley and smiled. She walked to Riley and pulled her closer to them.
“Come, don’t stand they like an outcast” Charlotte said.
“Uhm… I don’t know…” Riley said nervously.
“Hi Riley” Luca smiled.
“Hi” She waved and tugged a piece of her hair behind her ear…
“Finally you’re awake. We can now stop worrying about you” Josh said.
Luca smiled. He’s still weak but seeing his friends makes him so happy.
They continued chatting and laughing merrily, unknown to them that a certain video became trending in their school…
