Her World episode 21 – 22

Her World 🌍.

Chapter 21 ☀

Jennifer Owens ♥.

“Let me go ” I cried, hitting them as they dragged me forcefully.

I sighted a car coming and wanted to scre-m but they covered my mouth with their stinky hands.

The car stopped just beside us and from the car window I could see Riley, she was the one driving.

Beside her was Luca sitting there.

He got out of the car and came towards us.

One of the thugs went to face him and when he tried to hit him, another of them stopped him.

“Boss, look closely, this is Luca Devon ” he said and the one he called boss dropped his hand.

“Oh oh yeah” the boss replied.

Luca didn’t look like he was in a good state, he was staggering as he stood in front of us like someone who had lost a lot of blood.

“Let’s go Luca ” Riley said, glaring at me.

“Let…. Her… Go” Luca said in a low tone and the thugs nodded immediately and let go of me.

Luca’s breath came out as p-nts and I couldn’t help but wonder what was happening to him.

“Get in the car ” he said almost in a whisper and I didn’t wanna argue cause he didn’t seem like he was in the right state for that.

I got in the back seat and Luca got in too.

Riley couldn’t stop giving me deadly glares front he mirror at the front.

She started the car and drove off.

They stopped at the hospital and I wondered what they were doing here.

Riley threw me another glare before getting outta the car and going to help Luca.

“careful ” she told Luca as she helped him get out of the car.

I opened the car door and wanted to get down but Riley told me to wait in.

Not like told me, she ordered me.

What the hell? Stay in the car and wait for them? It’s so late and what if those guys come back for me? I was so scared and Luca noticed.

“Let her follow us “Luca told Riley when he noticed the worried look I had on my face.

I smiled slightly and got down from the car.

Riley held Luca into the hospital while I walked behind them.

I wonder what he has that Riley is giving him a support.

For some reason, I felt jealous that I wasn’t the one holding him like that.

“Luca ” the doc called when he saw them and immediately ran to them.

He helped Luca and took him to a ward.

I didn’t know what to do and didn’t wanna bother them so I went to check up on my Cody.

I went in,side and he was still asleep, peacefully.

I sat beside him, gently car-ssing his hair.

He’s gonna be awake soon and tell me to carry him.

He’s gonna say in that tiny voice of his “Amy pick me up now ” hehehehe.

Then I’d make all his favorite dishes, take him to different places, let him play video games and all.

“Shit ” I said when I remembered I came here with Luca and Riley and they must have been waiting for me.

I exited Cody’s ward and I saw them out side through the glass door, they were waiting for me.

I ran to them and almost crashed into Luca but he held me just in time.

“Let’s go ” Riley blurted out and headed to the car.

Luca and I followed her and I smiled a little when I noticed Luca was a little bit fine now.

He didn’t seem so weak like before and for that, I’m glad.

“Where did you go?” Luca asked…….. We were already in the car, leaving.

“Oh, I went to check up on my brother ” I told him.

He looked back at me, as if confused.

“Your brother? ” he asked and I replied yes.

“You mean your son or you have another brother at the hospital ” he asked and I couldn’t help but laugh.

I know everyone who doesn’t know me well always assume Cody and Caden are my sons but for Luca to think this way, it’s just so funny.

“He’s not my son hehehe, he’s my brother but yeah, you can still call him my son ” I replied.

“You mean he’s your brother and not your son? ” he asked again and to be honest, I hate when I’m being asked repeated questions but what to do, this is my Luca so I have to be cool.

“Yeah he’s my kid brother” I replied him.

Riley kept a stern look as Luca and I conversed and I was glad she was burning with jealousy.

I wanted to ask Luca if Riley was his girlfriend but it didn’t seem like the right time so I kept shut.

“So you’re not married ?” he asked again and I rolled my eyes.

Well, thank God he’s at the front seat and I’m at the back so he mustn’t have seen me do that.

“I’m not married and I have no boyfriend ” I stated clearly to clear all his misunderstandings but that was also a signal to him that I’m single if he wants to date.

Riley glared at me from the mirror and I gave her a smirk.

“I live at………… So drop me there ” I told Riley my address and she scoffed.

Of course she’d drop me there.

“So where were you coming from by that time of the night ” he asked.

“I was at the hospital, went to check up on my brother ” I replied.

“Why? What happened to him that you had to go check up on him and was so late to go back home? ” He asked and I sighed a little.

He looked back at me when I said nothing.

“OMG, is he dead? ” he asked and my eyes darted to his.

“Of course not! ” I yelled but immediately regretted it.

“I’m sorry, I’m sorry I just get upset when someone talks about death on my brother. He’s not dead and he won’t die ” I told him.

I noticed the shocked expression on Riley’s face as I said those words.

Why is she shocked? Bish.

“It’s OK, I understand ” Luca replied and I smiled.

“We are here ” Riley spoke up and I looked out at my door.

“Thanks ” I told Luca before getting out of the car and he nodded at me with a smile.

I looked back and noticed Luca staring at me as I headed to my doorstep.

I smiled and rang the doorbell.

I didn’t know why but Luca and Riley were still there and when I looked closely, it was like they were arguing.

Bryan opened the door for me and I took one last look at Luca before entering the house and locking the door.

Why was he staring at me? Are they fighting cause of me?

Forget that, why was Riley even shocked when I said my Cody isn’t dead and he can’t die and why the hell did they go to the hospital by this time? What’s wrong with my Luca?

Mmmmmmmmm.

Chapter 22 🌻

Bryan walked up and I gazed at him with furrowed brows as he took the way to my bedroom.

He was sleeping in my room?

I ran upstairs and went to my room.

I stopped at the door when I saw Bryan and Caden sleeping on my bed.

God knows I wouldn’t spare Bryan if he was the only one on my bed but he was with Caden so I’mma let it pass.

I covered them with the duvet, placed a k-ss on Caden’s forehead and left the room.

I went to Caden and Cody’s room, freshened up and wore my pyjamas.

I laid on the bed, stretched and yawned before closing my eyes to rest.

……………. ……………. ……………… …………..

I woke up, yawning and stretching on the bed.

Gosh! I still feel sleepy as hell but I’ve got work to do.

It’s a Sunday morning and I guess we have to ditch church today again cause I have lots of work to do at the new resto.

Bryan and I have to set up the resto.

Speaking of Bryan, where the hell is he?

I got outta bed and went to do my thingy in the bathroom.

I came out and went downstairs, hoping to see Bryan there.

I looked around but didn’t see Bryan so I went back upstairs to my room.

“seriously? ” I said and hit his butt.

He was still asleep with Caden, the hell!

My Caden can sleep longer but not this old man.

“Let me sleep ” he gro-ned and I scoffed.

“Hey Mister, this is my house not yours so get your dirty ass outta my bed ” I snarled at him.

He didn’t even reply so I rolled my eyes and went back downstairs.

I made breakfast and went to freshen up.

I got dressed and went to my room to carry Caden.

I wokw him up and carried him to his room, leaving Bryan alome in the room.

I took Caden into the shower, bathed him and brushed his teeth and wore him nice clothes.

We went downstairs and ate breakfast.

“I’m taking you to work today ” I said and his face lit up with joy.

“Really? ” he asked, smiling ear to ear and I nodded.

“Yes, we have a new resto and we have to go work on that so I’m taking you there to see it ” I told him.

“Is it big? ” he asked.

“Yup! Bigger than the old one and it’s very fancy ” I told him.

“Yaay! ” he said and started jumping.

“slow down else you’ll hurt yourself ” I told him, still smiling.

He didn’t even listen cause he continued jumping so I had to get off the couch and carry him in my arms.

“And guess what? ” I asked him.

“What? ” he replied and I rolled my eyes.

“Caden! When I say guess, I mean guess! ” I seethed at him and he chuckled.

“OK fine, Cody is coming home? ” he asked and just like that, the smile on my face faded.

“Uhhh, asking you to guess was a bad idea, I see ” I told him and he smiled.

“Well, your B-Day is coming up ” I told him and his eyes w¡dened with a dropped jaw.

“Yes! ” he exclaimed and I laughed out.

My baby be so happy making me happy as well.

“Is Cody gonna celebrate with me? ” He asked and I nodded yes with a drop of tear falling down my left cheek.

He jumped up and hugged me.

I hugged him so tight and k-ssed his cheek multiple times.

“O… K? ” We heard Bryan’s voice and pulled away from the hug.

I stylishly wiped my tears that had started falling before looking up at Bryan.

“You’re both awake and already dressed? ” he asked and I chuckled.

“I kept waking you up but you wouldn’t wake up ” I told him and he rolled his eyes and sighed.

“So what now? ” he asked

“So now we are going to work at the resto ” I told him.

“Damn! I’m hungry” he pouted.

“Go serve yourself breakfast, eat and we go ” I told him.

“What about freshening up ” he asked.

“Are you really so dumb? Of course you’d go home after eating and come meet Caden and I at the resto ” I told him.

“So I can’t take a bath here? ” he asked.

“No” I replied bluntly.

He served himself breakfast and Caden and I waited for him to finish eating so we’d leave.

He was done so he cleared the table and we all headed out.

I locked the door and we went to catch a bus.

Bryan alighted at his house while Caden and I continued to the resto.

“Wow” Caden let out just at the sight of the resto.

“Wait till you see the in,side, you gonna poo on yourself ” I told him and he laughed out making me laugh as well.

I opened the resto, pulled up the cover and opened the glass door revealing the in,side of the resto.

“Woah ” Caden said as he ran in.

“Be careful baby please ” I told him and ran after him.

The floor is so slippery and I don’t want him falling on his face and getting hurt.

I caught up with him and held him to me.

“Don’t run, okay? ” I told him and he nodded, still laughing.

If Caden is answering your questions and laughing then just know he’s lying and the moment I let go of him he’s gonna continue running and probably hurt himself.

I carried him over to the credenza and made him seat on it.

It’s kinda high so he can’t jump down.

“Amy ” he called and I chuckled and left him.

I started by setting the resto the way I wanted it to look.

I set the chairs and table and when I was done, Bryan walked in through the door.

“Oh wow, you’re even almost done ” he said and I nodded.

“Go work in the kitchen while I continue here ” I told him and he nodded and headed there.

I noticed the smoothies with him but didn’t ask if they were for us.

“Here, little guy ” he gave Caden one and placed the other on the credenza.

Seriously? He’s not gonna give it to me? I know it’s mine and he’s just tryna be stubborn.

Caden started drinking his and Bryan went over the credenza to start his work.

I sighed and went over to them, grabbed the smoothie Bryan had left on the credenza and started drinking it.

“What the f-ck? ” Bryan blurted out and Caden laughed.

“I knew it was for me and you were just being stupid “I told him.

“What if I told you it wasn’t for you? ” he asked.

“You can’t ” I told him.

“Well, it’s not for you ” he said and I shrugged.

I took the drink and went to continue my work.

⏩ ⏩ ⏩…………

“This is so stressful ” I cried and laid on the floor with Caden and Bryan.

We were done and before we’d leave, we decided to rest and my wa-ist hurts a lot.

After resting for a wh0le, we got up and left the resto.

“Let’s go to the park “Caden suggested.

“No, I’m so tired, I wanna sleep ” I told him.

“Let’s go please ” he pleaded but I still gave him a no.

He started crying, crying out loud that we gained everyone’s attention in the bus.

OMG! He hasn’t cried like this for a very long while.

“Caden, shush! ” I told him and he cried more.

“Shut your mouth else I’ll beat you ” I told him in a whisper but he cried the more.

The more I warned him to stop, the more he cried.

This boy really knows how to embarrass someone in public.

“Fine! Fine we’ll go to the park “I told him.

“Now stop crying ” I told him and wiped his tears.

He started sniffing so I hugged him.

We stopped at the bustop and waited for a cab.

Bryan couldn’t help but stare at us, how Caden and I acted which made me smile.

We boarded a taxi to the park and we arrived there in no time cause we were already kinda close.

Caden insisted we go on a roller coaster ride and I didn’t refuse cause I don’t want him crying again.

We had so much fun, bought snacks and ice-cream.

Bryan and I played with Caden, making sure he enjoys the day.

“Amy get me that candy” Caden pouted, pointing at a candy.

“OK fine! Stay here lemme go get it ” I told him and left him with Bryan.

“Give me a pack ” I told the man selling the candy and brought out my purse to look for money.

“Hey ” I heard behind me and turned.

It was Luca and I was so happy but I remembered last night and just composed myself.

“Oh! Hey ” I replied him.

“You’re here ” he said and I nodded.

You’re here too ” I said and chuckled.

“Yeah, my sister insisted I took her and her kids to the park ” he replied and pointed at a woman with kids.

“She’s pretty ” I complimented his sister though I couldn’t see her face clearly.

I took my candy and paid the man.

“So uhm, bye ” I told him and turned to leave.

“You don’t have a boyfriend you said ” he blurted out and I stopped on my track.

He remembered that? OMG! He wants to ask me to be his girlfriend?

“Uhm.. Yeah ” I replied and turned to face him but he didn’t even look at me.

“You don’t have a boyfriend but you’re hoeing around with your cook ” he blurted out and it was like my heart was pricked with needles.

Me? Hoeing around? How can he say that? Why would he even think of something like that?

Since I was born up till now, I haven’t even dated anyone, I haven’t even had my first k-ss yet so how can he say that to me?

His words hurt me so much that he left me speechless but he didn’t even look at me to notice my tears.

My phone rang so I turned away from him so he wouldn’t see my face.

I stylishly wiped my tears and saw the call was from the hospital.

“Yes doctor? “I said into the phone.

“There’s someone here, claiming to be your friend and wants to see Caden ” the doctor said over the phone.

“OMG! Don’t let the person leave, I’ll be there immediately ” I said and hanged up.

I didn’t bother about Luca so I just ran to Bryan and Caden and told them what the doctor said.

Bryan carried Caden and we ran out of the park.

We boarded a cab and I gave Caden’s candy to him.

I was so disturbed, I couldn’t think straight.

Who the hell is that?
