“Good bye sir” Janiece bid Aiden as she packed her belongings.

“Are you going?” He asked, “going where sir?” She asked

“The wedding” he replied, ” yes sir and you?” She ask

” I think I will pass” he said, Janiece bit her lower lip as she contemplate on her thought.

“Sir, I don’t mean to pry into your private life but are you related to the bride?” She ask, ” I noticed your reaction the other day you saw the the invitation card” she added

” You are quick witted” he said and she chuckle nervously. ” She’s my ex, I don’t think I deserve to be called her ex. She was just someone I wish I didn’t let go” he concluded

” Are you okay now? Few days after you saw the wedding invitation you weren’t yourself” she stated

” I’m fine, she deserves all the best she can get in life” he said and she nodded sadly.

” First love hurts a lot” she said, sadly. “Yes and we make a lot of mistakes” he added and she nodded in agreement.

“Jimmy you heading home?” Asher asked as soon as Jimmy walked out of his class. He has been waiting for him to come out.

“Yes” Jimmy answered, “is your mom running late again? “He asked.

” No I believe she’s on her way” he said, “I should wait a bit just in case she comes late”

“Thank you” he mouthed and Jimmy smile. “Hey new kid” a senior call and they turned around to look at the tall boy behind them.

“Why can’t they let me be?” Asher mumbled below his breath.

” He’s saying his last prayer” one of the kid teased. “it is you who should say your last prayer” Jimmy said

” And why is that? Because you are going to beat us with your little fist? We are scared already” another guy said sarcastically while the others laughed.

“You should be” Mr Justin said behind the seniors and they froze. It was as if they suddenly got a stiff neck.

“What’s wrong? Are you finding it hard to turn around?” Asher teased and they balled their fist but it’s hopeless the teacher is behind them at the moment.

“To the staff room, now!” Mr Justin ordered and they turned around slowly to head to the staff room.

“You kids should stay out of trouble if you don’t you will be punished” Mr Justin warned them.

” They were the ones looking for our trouble” Jimmy said, “it’s rude to talk back to your elders” Mr Justin scolded

” Sorry sir” Jimmy apologized, “now run along” he said and they nodded before walking away.

They were walking to the gate when Janiece call Asher, “Asher”.

“Mom!” He screamed as he rush to hug her, Jimmy ran after him because Janiece was few meters away from them.

“How was school?” She ask as he disengage from the hug, “cool”.

“Some kids try to bully us but the teacher came to our rescue” Jimmy reported as soon as he got closer to Janiece.

“You should avoid them and always report to the teacher, it is wrong to take law into your own hands” she said and Asher scoff.

” Asher?!” She intentionally called and he raised his brows at her, “did you hear what I said?” She ask

“Yes” he answered and she peck his cheeks. ” Moooom!!” He groaned, “it’s embarrassing” he added eyeing Jimmy.

“he got those cute holes because his mommy kisses him, but my mommy is not here, will I get it if aunt Sharon kiss me?” Jimmy thought as he stared at Janiece and Jimmy.

“See you next week jimmy” Asher said waving his hand, “are you coming to the wedding? It’s tommorow” he said

“Of course we are coming” she said and Jimmy nodded, “I will be expecting you, you both will be my special guest” he said.

” Wow this is beautiful, Tia is going to look like a princess that she is” Sharon compliments as she raise a purple gown.

“Yeah and guess what? Purple means royalty” Lena said, “did you hear that sweetie, you are royal” Sharon said to Tia who giggled in return.

“Why is this house noisy?” Jasper asked as he joined them. ” Check this out hubby? Don’t you think our princess will look cute, it matches her skin color”

” She looks good in everything because she takes after daddy” Jasper said as he tickle Tia who was close to him.

“She doesn’t” Sharon argued and turn to Jimmy who has been quiet all along, “Jimmy don’t you agree that Tia doesn’t take after your dad?”

” You picked the wrong person to side with you” Jasper said

While Jimmy Just stared at them, he remembered Janiece pecking Asher, he thought of a way to make Sharon peck him without him asking directly.

“Jimmy Madon! Are you there?” Lena tired to bring him out of his dream land, she noticed something was off about him because Jimmy would have given them a response but now he is just staring into space.

“Hellooooo anybody home?” Sharon wave her hand in front of his eyes. ” Yes” he answered looking cute with his pout.

“What were you thinking?!” Lena ask staring at him suspiciously, “nothing” he shrugged.

” Did your girlfriend break up with you?” Sharon teased, “haven’t you heard the saying till death do us part?” He wink at Sharon.

” Jimmy who do you think Tia takes after, me or your mom?” Jasper ask, “I think she takes after….. Me” he said Jasper frowned

“Since when did you stop siding with me?” Jasper ask with a sad pout.

” I didn’t side with anyone, I side with me. Tia is my sister it’s only normal if she sides with me” he said.

” Whatever!” Jasper rolled his eyes and Lena laugh, ” don’t worry brother be quick so that sister in-law can give birth to the mini version of you, I think Jimmy is no longer on your side”

Sharon’s cheek flushed again but she quickly hide it. ” Don’t worry I will get to work” Jasper smirk.

“Geez an innocent soul is here” Lena said, “I’m not innocent” Jimmy said.

” No one is talking about you, I was talking about Tia and I” Lena snapped.

” Cutie”Sharon tickle Tia and peck her cheek.

“that’s exactly what I need to do dhow her that I am cute, it is only Asher that will have a cute hole, I will too” he thought before browsing online.

“Aunt Sharon will this suit look cute on me?” He ask showing her a white suit.

” It will, is that what you want to wear tomorrow?” She ask, “yes, I will look cure right?” He ask

” Of course” she said. Why isn’t she kissing him? He doesn’t need a compliment, what he needs is her kiss.

“I should get a gown too, I don’t want to look odd” Lena said as she took her phone out to search for a gown.

” Wow that looks gorgeous” Sharon compliments the gown Lena showed her.

“It looks ugly, the color is gloomy too” Jasper said, “what do you think Jimmy, does it look gloomy?” Sharon asked.

” It looks amazing, it will look cute on Aunt Lena” he agreed. Jasper frowned, what’s wrong with him today? He has this been doing the unimaginable.

“Are you okay? Did I offend you? You can tell Daddy anything” Jasper persuade him yo confide in him.

” Daddy, can you keep a secret?” He ask and Jasper nodded.

*********

” Ann are you alright? You don’t look alright, you look gloomy” Ann’s mom who goes by the name Jane, asked.

“I’m not fine mom, I’m not” she snapped. She has been loosing her temper easily nowadays.

She snap at every little thing and she sigh all the time, it’s like she is in a deep thought.This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

“What’s wrong baby? What happened?” She asked, “it’s Jasper” she answered.

” Jasper? What happened to him?” She inquired, “he is getting married again to someone else, what’s wrong with me mom? Why can’t he fall in love with me? Why do some bitch needs to keep coming into the picture?” She cried.

” Are you sure? Did confirm the news?” Jane asked, “yes, his son gave me the wedding invitation and he was sited, mom!!” She whined, “we have to do something” she added.

“Don’t try anything funny” Jane warned, “Why can’t I?” She pouted.

” Just don’t, you shouldn’t do anything until the boss instruct you” she warned, “how I wish I can kill her right now and have Jasper all to myself” she said with her eyes filled with anger.

Ann stared away as she recall Jimmy calling Sharon mommy. That spoilt brat didn’t accept her but accepted Sharon with an open arm.

And in Jasper’s eye she can see love in it, it’s no doubt that Jasper is in love with her, she doesn’t give a damn anyway she is going to get rid of her.
