Her voice came out as a squeak betraying the confidence she felt inside her, she could not even look Robinson McPherson in the face, it was not like he a threatening look, but he exuded this aura of authoritativeness that could not be denied in any room. She managed to step closer to him so he could see her fully and assess that she was in no way a harmless person and it was just an accident.“So you did this?, Where you drunk or was ait something else”.Jimmy didn't want his father interrogating Tessa she might feel intimidated so he tried to speak up for her but she did for herself surprisingly. “No Sir,I wasn't drunk, neither did I take anything at that party,it was a honest mistake. I came to the parking lot to leave the party, no one was around and it was dark,so I assumed it was safe to drive off like that,I admit that was a wrong move and could have cost his life, but fortunately it wasn't at all bad”. She hoped what she said will allay his anger. That was the truth and she ca
He heard the thud and turned the back lights of the car still shining but no longer blinding as his eyes adjusted to it, then he saw his brother lying on the ground lifeless, there was no blood or ghastly round in sight,but he could not tell if his brother was alive or not. His mind cleared at once and his drunken state disappeared,he still didn't know what to do as he was horror stricken, he didn't go near his brother for fear of the worst, he made his way to their car like a stupid person, because that was how he felt and drove home to get his parents. That was the only thing he could do, his parents had told him countless times to come to them anytime he was in trouble.His mind did not go to taking his brother to the hospital, his parents were the only and best solution, and his brother was lying on the ground because of him, as he neared have, he hit his head with his hand. He should have at least checked on his brother before driving off. Seeing his brother sent waves of happine
Tessa looked at her cousin awkwardly, she has not even accepted to go out with Jimmy McPherson yet and her cousin was already talking about clothes. “I don't know what you are talking about Samantha, besides we are just coming from the hospital, I hit him with my car and I had to rush him to the hospital, luckily for me he wasn't badly injured or I'll be in the police station by now, that is why I am just coming in, I am really tired and don't have anytime to engay in your mischievous talks”.Samantha won't take no for an answer, she backed the door and hopped on the bed, making the Tessa shake on the bed as well, “can you hear yourself right now Tessa, this is every girls dream you know, well except me of course, I never had even a crush on him. But you on the other hand have been crazy about this boy ever since you know he even existed, and you don't want to go out or rather you are not sure of going out with him. Ladies will kill to be in your position now”.“And by ladies you mean
The children all watched how their mother led their father away to the room. Edward was still excited and was not ready to retire for the day.“Since I'm not ready to go to my room, can I come with you guys to Jimmy's room?”, He asked, hoping they would agree, but Pius turned him down.“No, from what I heard, you were the reason Jimmy got into this in the first place and for mom and dad to have forgotten to speak to you about it, it shows they are really tired and don't have the time to face you. They have more important things to tend to”.Edward was not happy that Pius told him off, he looked up to Jimmy expecting some words from him that would defend him against Pius like he always did. But this time Jimmy was in support if Pius and he told Edward so. “You need to rest Eddy, if for anything, you've been through a lot today as well and you deserve the rest as well”.Edward grumbled, he didn't like any of the things he was hearing, he wished he could go out to the party and have more
By morning, Jimmy was feeling all to better in his body and mind, so far it's just a little pain anytime he stretches and it was something he can actually handle, but his parents would have none of it, they insisted he stayed home for the day at least, to keep tabs on his progress. His mother pointed out that most accidents do not actually reveal the pain that it caused until after some days so there was no need to hurry. This all happened when they came to check on him in the morning and saw that he was already up from bed and almost dressed to get ready for work.“And where do you think you are going to?”. His father asked him with a stern voice, “you are not fully recovered and you need to sit back and relax, the company can take care of itself without you present for a few days so don't stress yourself”.“He takes after someone I know, always at work and never making time for anything or anyone, but I support your father on this one, you will stay home, I am resuming work as well
She went back to Jimmy's room giving him a smile and touching his cheek, she told him she won't be staying and he nodded in understanding, it was okay.She stepped out and saw Pius all dressed and ready for work, she called to him and he paused. Wondering why she was all dressed up like someone who was about to go out.Elizabeth saw the questioning look in Pius's face and told him she would be going to the office with him, his face did not show any surprise as he realized that he heard do last night while he passed his father's library, he just never thought that his mother would actually win on this one, he wants to ask how it was possible, but that would possible, but decided to ask her in the car, this means that she was going to help him become the chairman, he might not need Jessica's help after all if his mother was on the case. She asked if he had breakfast already and he answered in the affirmative, this was the beginning of a new life for him. He can't wait to know what his m
Every other thing Elizabeth was saying sounded like a soft breeze in Pius's ears, he was no longer interested, but would play along with whatever she has in mind to do so she doesn't get suspicious. He apologized for his outburst to her and continued the drive to the office, when they got there, Elizabeth was greeted with plenty of smiles and hugs by the people there. How she has missed tgis, she had spent most of her years after stopping work hanging out with one friend or attending some kind of charity occasion or just traveling which she enjoyed very much. But nothing beats being in control where you are given the respect you deserve. She rubbed Pius's arm as they neared Robinson's office and told him he can go, anytime he wants to reach her he can just come to her office. Which is the president's office.That position has been unoccupied for years since she left, Pius always thought he would be the one staying there since it was second I'm command to the chairman, but his father a
Back at home Edward was already thinking of how to get Tessa's number, obviously he can't walk up to Jimmy and ask him, he can't also call Samantha and ask her, she might want to ask Tessa for permission and he doesn't have an excuse except to ask Tessa himself. Then he snapped his fingers, he got it, what better way to ask her than when she's in their house, he would just invite the two of them over. But he would need Jimmy's consent so he doesn't get mad later, which he rarely does.He went to Jimmy's room. “Hey big bro, I see you are with me again, for the weekend, u was thinking right, like I want Samantha to come over and I'm going to use you as an excuse for her to come”.“Just invite her for yourself, no need to drag me into it”.“Come on now Jimmy, if she comes Tessa would come as well, don't you want to see her?,i will just tell Samantha that you are feeling worse and definitely Tessa would feel bad about it and would want to come as well. So it's a win for the both of us”.“
