"To babysit you! Remember the first time I had to babysit Cade, now is your turn." Jessica replied, purposely provoking Cruz. "B-baby-sit? What? Do you think I'm some baby or what? I already said you could leave. Why are you here and why are you…?" Cruz paused as he joined his legs tightly together, trying to hold back the wee in his manhood as it was becoming harder for him to keep to himself. Jessica noticed this and tried to help him untie the rope on his joggers but as Jessica stretched her hands towards him, he tried to dodge her by jumping backward but he slipped and almost fell to the ground if not for Jessica who quickly came to his aid and supported him to his feet but this only made Cruz more embarrassed and angered. "You are not a kid but your friends couldn't leave in peace until I agreed to stay back. I know accepting my help will only hurt your ego but you will have to accept it to prevent so many people from worrying about you." Jessica explained but Cruz couldn't pa
"What?" Cruz bawled as he looked down his brief and noticed the area where the tip of his prick rested was a little wet. "Fuck!" He screeched as he ran into the toilet and Cade couldn't help joining Jessica in laughing. Cruz was so embarrassed that he refused to come out of the toilet long after he'd taken a leak and also changed his brief so Jessica decided to leave and prepare dinner since it was already very late. They had breakfast quite late today and couldn't have lunch before it was time for dinner. Cade also decided to help her in the kitchen and take the opportunity to ask her why she returned. "You didn't have to come back. I've gotten to know you more now that I can tell when you're really happy or just faking it." Cade revealed and even Jessica knew he was right and she was not about to deny it. "You're right to say I'm just faking my smiles because that's exactly what I'm doing. Acting like nothing happened is the only way I can live here." Jessica confessed. "You d
"You don't have to explain yourself. You can leave. I will ask Dave to drop you." Cruz announced as soon as Jessica walked into his room early the next morning. Jessica sighed and dropped her gaze. "Do you now eavesdrop on my conversations?" She asked with clenched jaw and fist. "I wasn't eavesdropping. I just happened to be around that area by that time." He defended himself. "Well, get used to seeing me because I'm not leaving just yet but if you're in a hurry to see me leave…you can do us both a favor by getting better soon." She suggested but Cruz just hissed and tossed to the other side of the bed, turning his back on her. "Why are you here then?" He asked. "Isn't it obvious? To serve your breakfast and make sure you take your drugs!" Jessica repliedv, dropping the tray of food on the drawer beside Cruz's bed. Cruz was too focused on distancing himself away from her that he didn't notice she had the tray earlier. Jessica remained standing a few minutes after dropping
Jessica sighed and shut her eyes briefly as she contemplated whether or not to resolve this misunderstanding but Cruz grabbed her hand and pulled her to the door, flinging her out to the passageway and making her slightly dizzy. "Cruz, what are you…" "Who exactly do you think you are to tell what to do and what not to do in my house? Just because I'm on bandages doesn't mean I'm worthless and helpless, you know. I thought I'd be able to tolerate you living here with me but your attitude is just too much for me to handle. Why do you always have to act like a saint? After all I did to you, how could you even agree to stay back if you don't have any ulterior motives? Of course, I know exactly why you agreed to stay here. You just want to make me feel bad for what I've done and emotionally torture me but I refuse to let that happen!" Cruz bellowed furiously as he paused to quickly wipe out the tears in his eyes before they became obvious. Cruz merged his palm despite the pain it is cau
Michael, Daniel, and Jason ran after him almost immediately and they were shocked to see Cruz struggling on the floor with his head bandage now soaked in blood. "Cruz, are you alright?" Cade asked as he knelt and tried to help Cruz but Cruz shoved him off and attempted to stand up himself just to reassure himself that he is not as helpless as Jessica said. "Don't worry, Cade. I'm totally fine. I hope you also don't find me helpless." He confessed as he tried to get up on his feet but his legs and dizzy eyes failed him and he crashed to the floor again."Cruz." They all chorused as the men immediately lifted him. This time, he couldn't resist as he was now unconscious. With his hands resting on Jason and Micheal's shoulders, they carried him to his room. Cade immediately carried Cruz's phone and went through the call history to find his doctor and as soon as he did, he called him and urged him to come as soon as he could. Tyler finally joined them as he noticed their delay and was
Jessica had to lean on the wall for support as she slammed her palm on her forehead and moved her gaze all around the visible part of the living room in distress. "Doctor please tell us what's going on." Leah who had ran after Jessica with Tyler pleaded. "This is all my fault. I should have asked." The doctor sighed. "Just tell us what is going on, please!" Daniel urged. "Well…it's not advisable for an injured person to donate blood especially when the injury is so fresh. It will have an adverse effect on the donor, causing a delay in healing. And because Cade didn't get a tetanus injection for his sharp wound, the receiver might also be at a disadvantage if by chance the injury was infected." The doctor explained to their understanding and they finally related to Jessica's panick. "I'm sure Cade knew the consequences but he did it anyway. Does he think Cruz would be happy when he wakes up?" Jessica complained, her palm still on her forehead."Jessica, you have to calm down and s
CHAPTER SIXTY-SIX"He lost his consciousness after a ruckus and now he is regaining it with a ruckus." Tyler commented before Jessica pushed the door open.It was just as she had expected. Cruz woke up and just couldn't accept the fact that his brother was lying next to him unconsciously. "Cruz, calm down." Jessica soothed as she tried to hold onto Cruz's hand but he pushed her away. "What's happening here? Why is Cade in this room and why is he unconscious?" Cruz asked angrily at the top of his voice as he finally turned away from Cade's bed to face them. "Cruz, Cade had…" "Please, Jason. Let me handle this. No one will tell him anything if he doesn't calm down and stop barking." Jessica intentionally provoked Cruz because she knew he wouldn't react badly as he needed to know his brother's condition.As expected, Cruz didn't get angry, or rather, his worry surpassed his anger. "Ok! I'm calm now." He sighed. "So tell me what happened to Cade." He requested as politely as he could
Jessica walked towards him, all the while not taking her eyes off him and when she was very close enough, she leaned in, her lips caressing his ear."Revenge! I never thought about it but now that you brought it up, I want to try it." She whispered in his ear leaving the others in suspense. Cruz's eyes widened in surprise but he quickly lowered his gaze and giggled softly, such that only Jessica heard it. "And what on Earth do you think you can possibly do to me?" He asked sarcastically. "Well, I've thought about that long and hard and then it occurred to me that a Narcissist like you detest it when someone does what you can't do so I decided that from now on I will do everything you will never be able to do." She replied in whispers once again. A frown crept on his face as he listened to Jessica words but he is not the type that shows defeat. "After the self-introduction I made earlier, do you still think there is something you can do that I can't?" He asked as he placed his unin
