Imi wasn't here for his sister so he was trying to ignore her. "Where is Nathan? I'm here for him."

"Well thank goodness he's not here. Mamela apha kum Imi I won't keep on being patient with you. Leave my boyfriend alone!"

"Are you going to teach or are you just torturing me huh?" Ezula chuckled as he walked over to where Kenneth was lying down in bed. He leaned over and gave him a light kiss on the cheek. "You know I can't torture you when you're looking at me like that," he said with a teasing smile. "And don't worry, I'm not going to teach in this get-up. But you'd better believe I'm going to turn some heads on campus."Kenneth grinned and sat up, leaning in to kiss Ezula on the lips. "You always do," he said, running his hand through Ezula's hair.

Getting this young man locked up, jailed for years in prison... Yes for the crime he committed is right in law's eyes but not to me.""You mean you have a better decision?" The judge asked Mine.Mine nodded. "I do. My dear mother has been crying, upset and even depressed about this whole thing.

To stop cursing the heavens for something they didn't do. " He took a deep breath. " It annoys me that I cannot do all the things I was doing for my mother around the house that is. The farm needs someone to tend to it too. Instead of letting Mr Jeffrey here rot in jail while I still need someone to replace me in all the things I cannot

He wanted to give Ezula the world and he was starting little by little. "The meat is getting grilled here!" Clive shouted excited as he walked to David who was busy with the meat. "I didn't know you were this crazy." Andrew laughed at his driver as he took another swing of the beer. He and June had been invited by Clive to come join them for the holiday. And they gladly agreed. They flew to the quiet village to honour Clive's invitation. Andrew was more than happy to see more of Clive's family. It was something he had yearned to see for a while. That and the village Clive had been fond of so much. He could see why. The place was beautiful. With beautiful people. It was very intriguing place just like the one that came out of it. It explained a lot about Clive's personality. "Clive". David shivered as Cliv

I mean it's six AM you're awake at this time so don't pretend with me please. Wake you Clive." Clive still didn't move. His eyes were still closed. His back facing David. David frowned. " So you really won't wake up huh?" David got up from bed he walked to the other side of the bed where Clive's face was facing. He knelt with his knees on the floor and leaned towards Clive to give him a kiss on his forehead. He couldn't kiss him though because just when his lips were about to reach Clive's forehead Clive decided to change sleeping positions. Instead of his side now he was sleeping on his back. David blinked, his mouth in a twist as he knew that Clive was very much awake but just toying with him. Any other day David would have had the time for Clive's games. But he truly didn't have the time

It truly was." Kenneth had again tried to make Ezula's family understand how much he loved Ezula but yet again after a while of trying, two months in total he had only gotten insults from Ezula's aunt and uncle. They threw him out every time he tried to talk to them. It had gotten to the point that he had even tried to call Naomi for help but Naomi wanted to do nothing with him for a while so it was obvious she would pick up his phone when he called. Ezula had told him to stop a long time ago. But he refused. He really wanted to prove it to Ezula's family how much he loved him. Even his own parents had agreed to their love. Now only Ezula's own family was left. Kenneth was so desperate for Ezula's family to see how much he loved Ezula. He wanted them to approve of their relationshi

His eyes looked at Clive. His face had a smile on it. He ran to where Clive was standing. He hugged Clive. " I missed you!" He kissed Clive's chin since he missed Clive's lips. Because Clive had moved them from David's reach. David still had a big smile on his face. Seemingly didn't notice that Clive was not interested in anything at the moment. " You just left. I don't even understand why you left. You up and left me as if I was nothing. You didn't even tell me that you were coming here." " So?" Clive had his arms crossed around his chest . " So what? I left because I needed some space. Is that so wrong?""No, it's not wrong." David shook his head. "I know I can be a lot to handle sometimes." He looked down at the floor. "I just...
