Alessia's POVI don't know what it is but I don't feel comfortable with any other girl around Collin. I know I can be quiet possessive, but I just can't help if sometimes. Making my way to the class, I was practically fuming. My body boiled, not just because I didn't know about an Ariel in Collins life before. But because she was clearly throwing a diss at me. "Why do you look like you would love to have a kill?" Ashley asked the moment I got to our seats."Have you met the new girl?" "Oh, Ariel. She does appear quite friendly. Turns out she is Tephanie's cousin." My heart almost plopped out of my chest when I saw the Ariel and Tephanie make their way into the class. The two of them look like beauty goddesses. Do they not have any ounce of empathy in their family, for them to possess such beauty with no remorse.Calm down leesha, calm down. I urged myself. Collin and Allen also made their entry and to my utmost shock Ariel winked flirtatiously at Collin, while Tephanie on the othe

Collin's POVOne thing I have learnt in the years that I have been able to live is to not probe anyone for whatever they are hiding. If they are keeping it to themself, then they obviously don't want to tell it to anyone yet or they aren't just comfortable letting anyone in their thoughts.It was one of the reasons why I had left Rodger and not poke him about the new lady he had just met and had become so engrossed with for about four months now. I feel elated knowing Rodger has finally found someone who makes him happy.Out of all of us he has always been the most reserved and secretive. Something that bothers Charlie and Ester whenever they think of it. Him finding solace in talking to me makes me feel really special.The more reason I let him have his moments and give him enough space to finally share whatever he is hiding. I can tell from his hesitation as he spoke about the lady that there is more to it. At the same time, its not in my place to harass him to tell me.His nervousn

Collin's POVI have never had to experience Rodger glow so much in a day before. He looked happier and relaxed, all through the ride back home he kept whistling a happy tune. I feel so glad being able to experience this moments with him.Tonight was so much fun, not only did my brother get to finally meet his mate. I also got to spend enough time with my girlfriend. It's been a long time we had a chance to spend time alone. Before we entered the house,Rodger motioned for us to sit out for a while. I could sense he wanted to get something off his chest. "Tonight's sky looks mesmerizing." He praised looking towards sky. I sighed, imitating his position. We both stayed silent just watching the stars."I feel so happy Collin." He said, "I had always thought I might never get a chance at actual happiness. Knowing we would be forced to still keep moving. I have been so keen on finding the one for me, but I have been so scared and worried of what the future might hold. But I don't want to

Alessia's POVThe weekend had been filled with unwarranted drama, but it felt nice since the spotlight did shift away from me and talks about Patrick. But I felt sorry for aunt Ingrid, she had to be faced with their malicious threats of all the things that could go wrong the moment she leaves. But she left anyways, got herself lodged in a hotel. And only decided to affirm she isn't dead yet by responding to the numerous texts and calls Allen and I bombarded her phone with, this morning. Talking about how much she had some good sleep after what seem like ages. She really has an unhealthy reaction to things. If I had been the one sent out of the house and told never to come back. I would have sat by the gate seeking for mercy.But that is definitely the perks of having a job and your own money. Lesson learnt I should really get a skill incase I get thrown out of the house too. I wonder where Ashley and Collin are. It's lunch time and I have been waiting for them to join me. But they a

Collin's POVAriel had walked out on me right there, she did make an exit. I rubbed at my forehead, feeling a dull ache coming through. One thing I try as much as I can to avoid in my life, after seeing how much Wayne had to run from it all his life before finally settling with Annette; is girls trouble. I ran back to the school, to give myself off on the altar to Alessia before Ariel roasts me . Everyone who knew Ariel and I back then in the city we lived, all believed we might end up together. Mostly because, Ariel is super clingy and would stick to my side all the time. Ester was the first to notice she would be trouble and had clearly warned me to not go beyond the friendship level with her. When Ariel had come to the house during the weekend, ester clearly didn't feel comfortable. And now it's my turn to feel uncomfortable around Ariel. When I returned to the cafeteria, lunch was obviously almost over. I wonder how many minutes I was gone for. "Where did you go man?" Allen as
