“Babe, this kids are something else, Imagine Roland having four points, Nicholas have three, I having one while you Zero” Ruth said laughing “Am sure if we even get to eat the meat and the drink, you know the reward if we win, I guess we will only eat a little too” She said sighing, the boys laughed.

“Don’t underestimate the power of the new school” Roland and Nicholas chorused.

“Guess we did” David said and he dropped his last card “Wait?!! I won!!!!” He yelled happily jumped up and began dancing around, they laughed “Can I humbly have my reward??” He asked bowing his head. Ruth gave him a piece of meat which they shared mouth to mouth.

“Stella calling” Ruth announced, they paid attention.

“Aunty??? Sis Ruth???” Stella called.

“Please call Jemima to my room” Michael said and hung up, he has been reading Becca’s diary which Jemima gave to him, either laughing or silently shedding tears, he got to a portion of the book, he was shocked, heartbroken and sad, he had called the telephone in the kitchen informing the maids to call for him the teen girl.

“Sir???” Jemima answered as she poked out her head from the door.

“Come in” He said, his eyes were swollen already.

“Ok sir” She came into the room and stood before him, he is sitting on his study chair.

“Sit down” He said offering her a seat which she took “Becca has a heart problem and she didn’t tell me??? Why???” He asked with a broken voice. Jemima looked at Michael for sometimes, She pitied him so much that she was almost crying, she wonder how he cover up when he is with them and not showing his emotions at all.

“We have been battling with it since we were young, the doctor said she has a short life to live and that it was also very late because the heart has been damaged, that why she often faints and sleep for a long time, she left school because of that…. She was already in love with you, she liked you alot, but she was scared to tell you, it breaks her heart each time she think about it, she even prayed and hope that a miracle will happen….. The day you carried her to the hospital it is because of that same heart problem, then suddenly we discovered she hasn’t fainted in a while, even when she fight after removing her ring, bracelets and necklace for a while, she normally remove them before she fights… But we discovered after such fights, she doesn’t feel dizzy or faint or sleep beyond necessary, then we went to the hospital and in the hospital after seeing the door, she danced around, I haven’t seen her that happy” Jemima said and paused, Michael looked at her anxiously “The doctor told us that Becca can still live for a while with the damaged heart but she will have to be careful and don’t unnecessary stress the heart and she should avoid sudden things like shock and also she shouldn’t stay where bomb will explode…. That with that she could live a while but…..” She said crying, Michael’s heart was so pained.

“That why she asked me that question” Michael thought as he remembered when he was in the restaurant with Becca.

“Am sure, she wrote it in her diary” Jemima said wiping her tears.

“Hmm mm….. Thanks alot Jemima” Michael said with a small smile “Ashley told me about the party you are all having in your school, I hope you guys are preparing for it, don’t worry you will all go for shopping soon” Michael said smiling at Jemima who smiled back.

“Thanks alot Sir Michael” Jemima said.

“You are super welcomed dear, thanks too” He answered, she stood up and wanted to go when she saw the portrait, pictures and posters of Becca around the room, she smiled with sorrow in her heart, she finally walked out off the room sighing.

“Hey??” George called out, Jemima jumped she almost fall, he caught her before she could fall “Am sorry I startled you” He said and chuckled.

“No problem Sir” She said smiling.

“So do you think he is OK??” George asked concern laced in his voice.

“Nope, he is not but he is actually reading something, I am sure he doesn’t want to get disturb” She said and they began walking away.

“OK, thanks” George said.

“Hmm Sir, I wanna ask you something” Jemima said looking at George briefly.

“Anything dear” He answered.

“When people want to move on from someone like in case of Sir Michael and Becca, is he not supposed to do away with anything pertaining to her but his room is filled with Becca” Jemima stated surprised, George havened.

“Yeah but that doesn’t work with Michael, he chooses what he wanna do at any given time, he was the one that ordered it” George said. Jemima nodded and they both walked down the stairs.

“Awwwnnn….. This lady is in love, you’re no more crushing on Nicholas, awwwnnn poor Nicholas” Roland said jokingly, Nicholas faked a hurt face which made them laugh.

“He is taken already by that Aliyah girl” Stella said, Nicholas covered his face with his hands, they laughed again.

“He proposed aunty, he did!!!” Stella scre-med with her hands waving at them stylishly to show them her ring. Ruth scre-med happily, David and the boys rolled their eyes.

“Ladies!!!” David and the boys said shaking their heads at the ladies, Ruth had moved away from them, laughing and talking with Stella.

“So sweet of him” Ruth said as she walked back to them, they were already sitting down “Let’s star……” She stopped looking at the pot of meat which have reduced drastically,she looked at her husband and the boys suspiciously “Who ate it???”

“Ate what??” David said frowning his face.

“Is that oil on your l-ips???” Ruth asked looking from her husband to the boys, they all burst out laughing, Ruth began to chase them
