A few days later~ Thursday."Hey," Declan rushed after Tiffany."Wait up, you two!" He yelled and stopped walking which made Tiffany and Zoey stop walking."I've been calling you guys since," he inhaled and moved closer to them."It's not like you called our names, you've been screaming 'hey' like a fool. Do you expect us to answer that?" Tiffany frowned her face."Must you always show that you are good with words?" Declan frowned."Well..." Tiffany shrugged her shoulder off."Zoey, I need to talk to you," Declan said, boring his eyes into the lady."Why?" Zoey raised a brow."I gotta discuss something with you. Please.""Oh, someone said please, I guess he's quite desperate," Tiffany said sarcastically and looked away."Don't you dare interfere in what I'm saying," Declan groaned through gritted teeth."Oh, maybe you do not know, if I don't want her to go to you, she won't. You better don't get me pissed off right now. It's not like I sent you to announce my cute bestie as your girlf
"Kîll that child!" Harengon yelled, making the lion spirit who was interrupted flinch."Harengon, we can't kîll Tiffany, never. I would rather take the blame for leaving the mountain that day. We can...""Who cares about that?! That girl will cause a mess when Akilang wakes up," Lukas, the fire guardian interrupted."The lion spirit and I will always stay close to her, we will stop her from causing problems," the mountain guardian vowed."Chephirah?" Harengon turned to look at the lion spirit whose look on her face shows that she couldn't settle with her decision to kîll the little lady."We can't kill that girl. She's just exposed to another side of life. She became happy after her seventeen years of existence. I believe she will do a better job even when the demon gets unleashed, I believe in her," Chephirah hit her chest in assurance."Chephirah, Benroy... I will strip you both of your position and send you on an exile to the end of the world if that girl should take a life, take m
After almost an hour had passed, when Aiden had gone and returned and returned from the cafeteria to get them snacks and drinks while waiting for Declan, the latter strolled inside the class slowly, stylishly running his hand through his hair."Dumbàss, I told you to come here as soon as you can!" Zoey sprung up."Oh, that. I have a duty to perform," Declan tilted his head sarcastically."Oh, really?""So, why do I come here? As you might have known, I can't be here in the same space with Aiden," Declan said and glanced at Aiden who was peacefully sipping his drinks, not sparing him a glance."Huh, who wants to be in the same space as you?" Aiden rolled his eyes."I'll agree to be your FAKE girlfriend, but, only on one condition," Zoey tightened her arms across her chest."Which is?" Declan raised a brow, moved towards the table beside him, and sat on it."We want to create a singing group, we need you to be a member to be able to create a group," Zoey answered."What the fûck? You wa
"She lives here?" The Senator furrowed his brow as he stared at the thatched house built with bamboo leaves through the window of his car.''Yes sir," the driver who was also the informant, Ryan answered."How could someone survive in there... Oh, Whatever. Let's go," he sighed.The driver got out of the car, rushed to the other side, opened the door of the car, and watched his boss step out the majestically..."Mrs. Vincent!" Ryan called out and stepped back."Are you sure she's around?" The Senator frowned after a few seconds of silence."Mrs. Vin–"The door of the bamboo house opened which interrupted him. ''I think I told you not to come here again," the old woman frowned, unaware of the presence of the Senator."I know, I...""I requested to see you," the senator stepped forward."Why? Who are you? " The woman raised a brow.Wait, she doesn't know him?!Huh, that is given.How does he even expect someone who lives in this place to recognize him?"I am here to enquire about my l
"Shît!" Tiffany sniffed, shook her head, covered her mouth with her palm, and let the tears from her eyes fall freely."I'm sorry," she whispered, turned swiftly, and then prepared to run away."Wait!" Aiden sprang up, ran after her, and caught her wrist."Just... Hold on," Aiden exhaled.''Are you okay?" Zoey rushed towards them and asked no one in particular."Let me go," Tiffany hiccuped."You pushed me so hard, " Aiden placed his left hand on his waist."I... I..." She shook her head."Tiffany, how did that happen? Your wound... It fûcking disappeared!" Zoey widened her eyes."I... Let me go, please," she stared at Aiden with teary eyes."I don't want to.""I...""It's fine if you don't want to talk about it," Aiden nodded his head."It is not fine. Tiffany, we are friends. We are supposed to know things that are going on with you. Don't you think?" Zoey frowned."You both must find me strange, right?" Tiffany said after a few seconds of silence and wiping her tears."I don't know
"If we keep this up, we'll get caught before we find what his real aim is. We need to know what the other person is saying as well," Aiden sighed."There's a way we can know what Xyler is really up to," Declan, with a cup of ice cream, walked towards Aiden who sat on the couch."How?""Telephone tapping.""Declan?""Yeah. You've done it before. You know very well how to tap into his phone. That way we can hear what the other person says," he stood before him, impersonating a pose.Aiden didn't want to do this anymore.The last time he tapped into someone's phone, he regretted it.The person was his mother for during the process, he realized his mother was having an affair with another man while his own father was still alive.Yeah, he knew it was worth tapping into Xyler's phone.The guy was getting Tiffany involved already.There was no way he would allow Tiffany to suffer for whatever the guy had installed for them."What if something goes wrong?" Aiden drew his brow together."That
¶¶"Whoa, this bîtch is really crazy.""She thinks too highly of herself.""Who does she think she is and what the fûck is going on over there?"¶¶The students murmured, and gathered as they watched Tiffany pull Xyler out of the lounge."Tsk, baby boys and girls. No cause for alarm. I'm not going to eat him. Y'all remember the bet we had, right?" Tiffany rested her left hand on her hip then pointed the other at them."Come on, the challenge we had. The loser of the fight was going to grant the winner a wish," Tiffany frowned.¶¶" Yeah, it's true."" I thought it was going to slide since Xyler lost."¶¶"No, babies. That won't happen. So, Xyler..." Tiffany clapped her hands together."You will grant me a wish, right?" Tiffany tilted her head sarcastically.Fûck, it was going to be a thing of shame if he refused.He had lost already, refusing to give her what she wanted again will make him the biggest loser ever."What is it you want?" He held his head high."Yeah, that's the vibe," T
Western high school.Aiden descended the stairs lazily, heading towards the rooftop. There weren't any students wandering around and that was because the lunch break was over. Tiffany and Zoey were definitely in their classroom, he was only going to the rooftop to clear his head from the conversation he heard from Xyler and the other guy.Declan was in the classroom, Xyler was obviously in the lounge and that was the reason he could have that kind of conversation.Whatever was going on, no matter how things weren't clear yet, Aiden was sure Xyler wasn't an the only child like he'd claimed.Wait, does he have a twin brother?Huh, no way.But what if?Oh, whatever.=He placed his hand gently on the railing and exhaled deeply. The girls were not there like he had imagined.Unconsciously, he laughed as he remembered what had happened earlier in the day.How Tiffany had slapped Xyler was still vivid in his head. The girl surely was a case.Wait, why did she even slap him?The plan was ju
