Jack's POV

It's because Maddie is their favorite and whenever things don't go her way and they find out that I somehow contributed to that I'll be scolded at and shouted at for being a bad brother, I don't remember the last time they scolded Maddie for doing something wrong but thankfully Maddie didn't turn out to be a spoilt brat except for when things don't go her way sometimes.

Brett later told me that he will drop by to visit me after I told him what happened last night.

" Hey brother". It was Brett looking at me and he was standing at the door of my room.

" Sup man, who opened the door for you?".

" It's your mom that let me in".

" Alright ".

" Is that Brett's voice?". Maddie said barging into my room after creating a drama that will last for a lifetime.

" Hey Maddie ". Brett said going to hug her.

" Hi, why are you here?". Maddie said a bit surprised.

" I came to see Jack".

" It's alright but you didn't text me you are coming ".

" Look I'm sorry I just had to see ho

    Jack's POV " You know why your brother refused to show up?". " Yes I want to know why he will be such a loser". I had a feeling that Brett was going to tell her everything. " Brett don't say anything". " Oh Jack can you please shut up". Maddie was furious and I didn't know what to do. Brett also couldn't contain himself and grabbed Maddie by her arm and he had this furious look on his face. " Since you want to be a brat let me throw more light on it, the Sophie that you've been claiming to be an angel was busy cheating on your brother ". " Brett". I said looking at him but he totally ignored me. No matter how many times I said 'Brett don't ',he didn't listen to me. " And guess what after some time your brother wanted to be a good man to his girl and he decided to pay a surprise visit only to be told by her mom that she was in a garage with some dude". Maddie was lost for words and didn't know what to say. Brett paused for sometime before he dropped the bombshell. " So my m

    Jack's POV I texted Brett and he immediately replied and I begged him to at least respond to the twenty nine messages she must have probably sent to him or the fifty one missed calls. Girls cam be very dramatic when they are in the wrong and still be dramatic when they are wronged. He refused to do that and said that he only texted her to tell her that she should apologize to me and I knew that this fight will be a long fight but what can I do about it. I have a feeling that this week that is coming will be a very long one.

    Leviana's POV As if that wasn't enough I get to see Jack after what happened during the sleepover I don't know why but I think Fridays are like a blessing and a curse for me or else why else would an idiot named Devon start disturbing me on a Friday and then a secret that Jack likes me be revealed to me on a Friday and most importantly I usually have the nightmares on Fridays and as for a blessing it is only a blessing because it ends the weekdays. " Leviana you won't believe what happened". Maddie totally interrupted my thoughts and I was in no mood to chit chat . " Okay so do you know Brett has not talked to me since this weekend". " That's shocking". I said it in a sarcastic tone but I didn't mean to but I guess Maddie didn't notice. " Exactly and do you know it's all because of Jack". Speaking of Jack I couldn't help but notice that he has been staring at me and what made me almost jump out of my seat was when he walked over I mean can't I just have this day to myself so th

    Leviana's POV After crying away all of the sorrow that can be expressed in tears I dropped the dandelion and was just looking at it. This dandelion is yellow in color and I continued to admire the beauty of the flower and then I remembered what my dad once said I could remember his voice that makes my nerves calm he told me that anytime he sees a yellow flower he will remember me and I asked him why and he later told me that the color of the flower will remind him of the color of my hair and the funny coincidence is that why we were talking about a yellow flower is because we both saw a yellow dandelion while we were walking and admired it and years later here I am giving him a yellow dandelion but I'm the only one that is admiring it. After that I couldn't help but notice that there were yellow flowers growing around the gravesite and I was surprised to see them because I didn't remember seeing any flower when I came there. I suddenly hear footsteps and I thought it was the driver

    Leviana's POV " I also want to say that I'm sorry for all the drama that's going on because of me". I don't get what Jack is saying what does he mean by drama it's just me, Maddie and of course him who else is involved in this. " It's okay we are cool". I said trying to hide the pain . I just hate having feelings because sometimes you don't get to understand them completely can't I just be walking around having no feelings for anything be it sorrow, pain or anger. " I'll be leaving so take care". He later walked away from me without looking back and as he was walking away I don't know why but there was this side of me that just wanted to shout his name and ask him to stop but I just controlled my self and watched him until he was out of my sight I entered the car just staring outside the window.

    Jack's POV " His mother was diagnosed with cancer and was supposed to have chemotherapy some few weeks ago". " But the mother is alright now right?". " Yes because the cancer was found at the early stage but the mother was still a bit weak due to too much chemo even that Friday when he came to pick you up for that school party he wanted to stay back with his mom just to know that she's alright ". I just blurted everything out and I felt bad for Maddie that I'm making her feel this way but she has to know the truth or else she will never change. I was about to leave and then remembered something. " And thanks for letting the whole school now that I have feelings for Leviana ". I immediately went up to my room and was just sitting down there thinking of how Leviana will react to such a thing. I just sat down there for some few minutes staring at my guitar. " Jack can I come in?". Maddie said standing outside my room. I was actually surprised that she didn't just barge into

    Leviana's POV " Levy dear". Granny said knocking at the door. It's as if she's not just a guardian but a guardian angel that will help me in my journey of life and anytime I face a challenge she will just appear to assist me with all of my life challenges. " Granny I'm coming". I immediately rush to the door and open it after opening it without thinking I threw my arms around her and gave her a hug and I guess my granny knew I needed it because she didn't complain or ask any questions she just pushed me away softly and held me by the hand and there we were sitting down on the bed, silence fell heavily upon both of us for some few seconds. " Granny do you think that I like Jack?". " Well do you actually like Jack?". After that question I took a deep breath and let it out. " Yes I do like Jack". After that my grandma let's go of my hand and before you know it I felt a light smack on my head. " So it's now that you finally used your brain cells". " Granny how do you know everyt

    Leviana's POV " Hey Levy". Maddie didn't even waste time to speak after I picked up the call. " Hi". " Okay I just want to tell you I'm so sorry for what I've done I know that I'm a self centered person and I completely forgot about your father's death anniversary". She later paused for sometime, I could literally hear her heavy breaths I think she forgot to breathe as she was talking to me. " And I just wanted to tell you that I am here for you and I'm ready to accept the fact that my brother has feelings for you and that you also have feelings for him". "Maddie it's alright, and I totally accept your apology". I said the moment she was done apologizing because I understand better that everyone else is so caught up in their own world that sometimes they forget about others that are breathing the same air that they inhale ,and then there was this silence on the other end of the phone and I felt like she wanted to say something but she was only holding herself back.

I actually had hope that maybe just maybe we could end up together, I didn't know if making that promise will hold him back or not but I later agreed to it. " I'm just giving you and the rest of your school this evening to remember Leviana after that when you wake up in the morning you won't have any memory of her". Ellena said looking at Maddie.

" Can't you just give up for once there is no chance of you winning". Sylverenne said mocking me. " I want to see what she's afraid of the most so that I can use it to my advantage ". Erebus said grabbing my arm and he was shocked not to find any fear. " Are you surprised?". I said smiling and sent some electric waves to shock him. " Fear is now going to run from me since the only thing that I feared came to pass". I said looking at Sylverenne. I later smiled at both of them and turned invisible I didn't know that I could do that but I still did it they found it hard to fight me since they can't spot me. I later made m

    Leviana's POV On Friday I prepared my tribute and also wrote a poem that will be engraved on granny's grave since that was one of the wishes that she made. You're not in the stars Or six feet below You are always in my heart Memories ever fresh Your voice ever loud Your behaviour as a youth And a guide in my life A friend that was always there with me And every memory that I have laughing You were always in it Whenever I cried you were always there But now I can't accompany you to the place that you've gone I can only send you wishes brought by my tears. After writing this instead of my heart to feel lighter it felt heavier cause my mind knows fully well that there is no poem of mine that I didn't write in which my granny didn't read it or listen to me reciting it. Friday felt so horrible I usually look up to weekends cause me and granny would have blasted the house with songs and smell of desserts and other times the smell of fried food.

    Jack's POV " So what did they tell the whole world?". " They said that he was addicted to drugs and got introduced to it by his highschool friends and one day the pressure became too much for him that he later killed himself with these drugs". " That's so inhumane of them". " That's why anytime I see you picking up the guitar I see Johnathan that just wanted the world to know his talent". My dad said finally breaking down in tears. " I couldn't save him but I could at least save you". He said looking at me. I didn't know what to tell him singing is my passion and I want to correct the ills of this world. " Please don't try to be the hero many people tried and lost themselves or their lives in the process ". My dad said holding my shoulder. Who knew that the reason why he was being so strict and harsh towards me was to protect me. " Don't worry dad I won't try and enter the music industry but I won't stop playing my guitar ". " As far as you don't head down the same path like

    Leviana's POV I got the chips and we listened to music as we flashed back to all the happy moments and the funny bitter ones of how I once cried just because I thought that there was a shark in the bathtub and we also played our favorite song this is the life by Amy Macdonald. All of that happened between one hour and only another hour to spend time with my favorite person on planet earth. " Levy, stop the music". I stopped the music and looked at grandma she became lean and she looked pale with her veins turning black. " I want you to listen to me carefully and don't interrupt me". I nodded my head and paid close attention to her. " When I'm gone I don't want you to feel like you are ever alone they are people out there that are still yet to meet an amazing and loving person like you". " You should also not under any circumstances be afraid of something because what you fear the most will come to pass". That one hit me so hard cause the only thing I ever feared in this life was

" Why are you targeting that old woman besides she was going to die sooner or later due to her old age". " Yes, I know she just made my life miserable when I was around and I felt like giving her a taste of my medicine ". " If you have such resentment towards her do you have any emotional attachment towards your child". The evil lord said moving closer to Sylverenne to make eye contact with her but she looked away. " No my lord , she was just a thorn that I have to get rid of". Satisfied with what he heard he holds Sylverenne by the chin and smiles at her " Call me your love ". Sylverenne smiles at what he just said and nods happily. " The grandma dies today my love and knowing that family very well she will be buried next week Saturday ". " That's good news I wou
