2021-08-06 10:32:54The following day was rather hectic in all corners. Patricia nervously explained Thomas’s visit to Laura and thus busied herself making preparation with Mr. Hector concerning her official decision in filing for a divorce.
Neither of the Stevens couple told their daughter about the sudden change of events, instead they wanted to wait until the matter was properly settled before breaking the news of Jeremy’s parents’ legal separation and her opportunity to move ahead with the relationship at ease. This was a common understanding they all shared. Celebrate after success and not before.
However, things weren’t as simple as waiting it out. Phillip and Britney were almost certain that Thomas would be able to handle the issue on his side… his usual act of manipulation and threats. With this in mind, they confidently began making premature plans for the expected engagement banquet.

You know how it is when someone suddenly receives a painful news, for some reason their mind just shuts down… at a loss for words, unable to think clearly… repeating the silly famous question, why? Or how could this be? Well, Erika wasn’t one of those persons. She could already guess this had something to do with Britney and her involvement with Jeremy, leading to such a rushed announcement. However, the fact that he most likely knew of the tidal wave threating to collapse on their newly sprouting relationship and had not express a hint of worry over the possible outcome. Now that was what scared her. Thinking that maybe the reason he wanted to spend more time with her was because he viewed this as their last bitter sweet goodbye. “Crap! I told you, but you never listen to me… damn stupid teenage hormones! You should have stuck to the plan from the beginning, avoid Jeremy. But nooo… you just had to go

“Not my fault you didn’t explain yourself.” Erika mutter inaudibly. “Let me get this straight, so you’re not engaging Barbie doll Hudson tomorrow?” “Your parents are getting a divorce?” Marcus and Rose questioned respectively, muffling over the tenacious girl’s voice. “Mr. Stevens… Erika’s father and mother offered to help look into the issue of the prenup. Turns out there were solid grounds for scrapping the entire agreement or forcing my dad into signing over half the company shares to my mother.” Jeremy narrowed his eyes observing Erika awkwardly lowering her head, fidgeting with the hem of her clothes, a habit she had when feeling either nervous or guilty. “Does that mean you won’t have to drop out of college or live on the streets? Aunty won’t lose everything in the divorce?” “Hmm… yes, it also m

Jake was resentfully waiting for any sort of news or message from Britney, mentally preparing to retaliate once he got free. However, days went by without a single word from her, in fact no one came to visit him apart from Jessica, who was still hopelessly pleading with their father to find a defense lawyer or even assist in making a deal with the persecutor. Unfortunately, Jason Lancer stuck to his words and flew back to Miami directly after vising his son, clearly having no interest of getting involved in the matter. Anxious, the doting sister felt like she had run out of options, as a last resort she could only think of imploring her brother to beg the Stevens for forgiveness for his ‘simple act of flirting’, well at least that’s what she believed without actually seeing the video evidence, coupled by the gossips floating around. “Jake! This is serious, stop acting childish and apologize. Look at how ter

The big day was finally here, the Hudson’s were overly occupied catering for last minute preparations, still certain that Thomas would be able to deliver Jeremy directly into their hands. Phillip was more focused on the public announcement aspect, making sure he had invited the most reputable news agencies in the country to witness the union of the two biggest names in the business industry. Whereas, Britney accompanied by her little minions, were cheerfully hopping from one store to another trying to find the perfect dress for her ‘engagement’ banquet. “Go ahead girls, choose anything you like, it’s on me.” She happily lifted her father’s gold-plated card, motioning her friends towards the well-known up-scale mall. Despite having a closet filled with untouched rather insanely expensive evening wear, she still chose to make an unnecessary request to go shopping. “Are you sure it’s a good idea to come here? What

“Mr. Hudson sir, the crowd is quite stable at the moment, but a few reports are beginning to get suspicious. We will need to start soon.” Glaring at his assistant, Phillip quickly returned his attention to the already frantic teenager trying to offer words of reassurance. “Don’t worry Princess, one way or another, Jeremy Adams is going to be your fiancé by the end of tonight.” “B… but daddy, Chelsey said they weren’t coming. Maybe Jeremy’s not going to show up either…. Why doesn’t he love me? am I not good enough?” Britney began sobbing loudly while huddling up in her father’s embrace. “My baby girl is the best, the most beautiful creature there is, just like her mother. If Adams can’t see that then he’s a blind fool.” “No! I’m nothing compared to Erika Stevens. He chose her over me…. I’m ugly! I hate myself!” She continued to perform her world-class act in the fa

Everything was a complete mess. Anxious relatives and friends tried smoothing over the uproar as a few remaining reporters excitedly searched for answers, bombarding anyone closely connected to the Hudson’s. Of course, Selena and Keisha were no exception. However, the latter was understandably in no mood to be reasoned with much less offer an input on the situation. Since Jake had been arrested, she had wanted to visit him on multiple occasion, but thanks to Britney’s manipulation, she was easily convinced to keep her distance until the issue was settled so as no to be dragged into the mix by the so-called vengeful witch, Erika Stevens; who they had previously thought fabricated the entire story. Now that the true colors of Jake Lancer were finally made public, there was no denying the actual innocent victim. This no doubt was a huge hit to the naive girl’s emotional state. Selena desperately tried calming her

The weekend had finally come to an end, yet the drama was only beginning. The following day at West Bay Academy, it was if everyone had stepped into a parallel universe…. A topsy-turvy kind of environment. Instead of Mr. popular arriving on his own and being greeted by the once sassy jealous freak former cheer-captain Britney Hudson, he arrived to school in the now easily recognizable black Audi, alongside the trending sensational Erika Stevens. The halls bustling with gossips wasn’t anything strange, but the fact that many suddenly began whispering in admiration at the newly publicize couple, now they were surely singing a different type of tune. “Hear that? Music to my ear… my best pal finally dumped the plastic and got the real deal. Barbie lost her Ken; the crazy Witch broke her stick… all is right with the world again.” Marcus proudly declared, as he walked backwards, both arms outstretched, swaying gracefully as if d

The previous night, Britney was unfortunately the last one present at the venue to receive news of the video being released and the public’s shifting opinion, thus she was all dressed up and ready to go, patiently waiting in the lounge for the green-light to make her grand entrance. But when she finally saw the hot topic of her being named the ‘outsider’ in Jeremy and Erika’s relationship, let’s just say…. there wasn’t an item left in the room which could be broken, that wasn’t. She was obviously too ‘emotionally unstable’ to show up to school the following morning, even Phillip could not bare the sight of her award-winning sorrowful crocodile tears. Besides, he had bigger troubles to worry over. Thomas’ confession of forcing a socialite’s marriage between his son and Britney was enough to create hostility in the business world. Of course, clients initially didn’t really care for this personal aspect of the two men, but because customers were

“Is… is she really okay? is my baby okay?” Phillip instantly sprang to his feet at the sound of the double metal doors of the emergency room opening up, his words slightly hoarse in expectation and uncertainty. “Hmm... thankfully she got here when she did, our team was able to empty the contents of her stomach before it could dissolve into the bloodstream.” “Ahem! Miss Hudson, ingested almost half a bottle of sleeping pills. A few minutes more and it would have been too late. Since the police is already here, then we have no other reason to get involved, we will provide a report of our findings shortly.” The doctors explained one after another. “Is she awake?” Richard intervened in a concerned tone. Despite the current circumstances, all were nonetheless relieved that the silly girl was still very much alive. “It will take some time for her to regain conscio

Shortly after, several officers could be seen rushing into the prominent hospital, anxiously requesting medical assistance. Apart from it being their duty to care for the life of a civilian, the young woman involved was the daughter of an arrogant and influential businessman… failure to respond effectively might not only put the girl at a greater risk of dying, but their jobs on the line as well. In a matter of minutes, Britney was rushed into the emergency room with nervous doctors seeking to pump her stomach out, ridden her body of the drug as they tried their best to keep her condition stable. “Why haven’t your parents arrived as yet?” Officer Woody questioned. Seeing that the girl was finally under the care of the hospital’s medical team, he promptly returned his attention to the three possible suspects. “He should be here any minute now.” Jeremy replied vaguely.

“Selena! How could you do this to me? Stop the car right now!” Britney protested hysterically. “No! drive.” Keisha and Jeremy yelled out simultaneously. Sure, the latter could have taken over if the girls refused to comply, but he wasn’t about to let the frantic psycho out of his sight, even if it meant literally holding onto her. Although Britney was fuming with rage and confusion at the said time, feeling trapped and exposed…. She wasn’t crazy enough to start another fight, especially with the wrathful teen inches away in a moving car. All she could do was ramble on and on until the vehicle finally made its way to the front of the police station. “I did nothing, you can’t prove anything… I’m innocent.” She rebelliously folded her arms, glued to her seat with no intention of stepping foot into the downtown bureau. “Fi

On the other side, Britney was in a fit of panic wondering why Jeremy’s figure was yet to appear in an exhausted state. “Ahh! I knew it! This is all your fault. He probably didn’t even drink the damn water.” She yelled accusingly at the duo standing by her side as they peered from the corners of the hall, hoping to see the drowsy teen staggering out of the locker room. “Sorry, but I was too nervous. Didn’t you say the coach give it to him? Then don’t worry, he will drink it.” Keisha reasoned. “Don’t worry? Because you two chickened out at the last minute I had no other choice than to give it to him myself. If he doesn’t take the freaking pill my plans are ruined!” “What difference does it make? Either way he would have refused it from us.” “Yeah and you know how clumsy I can get, it was better that you did i

The following day at West Bay Academy. “Did the handsome flirt give you any trouble today?” “Lisa!” Randy shouted. “What? Can’t I call it as it is. Sheesh, so immature.” The girl teased as the regular group of seven sat down for their routine meal at lunch in the school’s cafeteria. “Fine! You guys see the new home-ec teacher? She’s damn…” “Do you like breathing?” Lisa instantly interrupted her boyfriend from uttering regretful words. “Where’s the equality? How come I can’t compliment a woman and you can drool over a stinking doctor?” Listening to the bickering couple, Jeremy leaned closer whispering in Erika’s ear, “let’s not share a table with these two again.” “Hey, have some manners. When you’re with us, no secrets. Otherwise get a room.” Marcus joked. “Rose, I th

The evening soon ended on that note. Uncle Sam escorted the girls back home as Erika was accompanied by her parents in a separate vehicle. Being caught up in his own dilemma, Jeremy had guilt tripped the guys into staying away from the show as well… he couldn’t be there to watch his girlfriend flash model, why should they be present for theirs? No doubt if he had any other option, he would have chosen to be on the spot supporting the openly bold but inwardly fragile girl that had a way of bringing a smile to his cold face. Unfortunately, his dad had shown up at the Shephard apartment complex, appearing a bit intoxicated… begging and howling sorrowfully like an abandoned pup pleading to be taken care of. Chelsey, though not as angry as before, was still not too happy about the idea of her mother intending on accept the man back into their lives easily, she wanted him to suffer a lot m

“Guys! Where on earth are we going?” Erika questioned uneasily, seeing Abby sneakily passed a paper over to the driver, most likely giving him their intended destination. “You’ll see.” Lisa winked playfully. “Come on you guys… I… I need to tell my parents; they will be worried if I’m late…” “No they won’t, right uncle?” Hazel asked the old fella behind the staring wheels as if they had some sort of understanding. “Young Miss, your friends have already told Mr. Stevens sir, about the plans for this evening… I’ll be accompanying you until it’s time to return home.” Old man Sam replied plainly. “Then where are we going?” “To an address Miss.” “Yeah, I know, but where…?” “A place…” “Obviously it’s a place, can’t you be more specific?” Erika tried fishing out information from him. “That’s enough! He’s not telling you squat, now

“Oh my God! That was freaking awesome! I can’t believe I actually said that out loud, usually I would have loads of random response floating around in my head but I would never think of confronting anyone, especially with so many people watching, well except for that time she slapped me during my first cheerleading practice, still… she had it coming. Oh, and at that pervert’s home, but it was just the four of us there….” Erika rambled on, feeling a burst of excitement as she came out of the cafeteria, tightly clinging onto the helpless teen’s arm. “You did good.” Jeremy smiled, utterly pleased by her courage, even if it was a spur of the moment type of thing and she barely managed to remain standing in the face of so many hypercritical spectators, quickly shifting their views. “My heart is literally racing right now.” The silly girl subconsciously brought both their entangled hands towards her violently drumming heart, innocentl
Crashed Into Love. Faking Courage.
The following morning went on as usual with the young lovers accompanying each other to the hospital, the only difference was they had effectively been placed on separate teams. Jeremy observing first hand trauma cases while Erika resisted the urge to ruin the handsome doctor’s face. After realizing the young man’s possible intentions might be connected to her so-called rival, the over imaginative girl couldn’t help mentally acting out a scene of poking his lingering eyes out or chopping his arms off for ‘accidentally’ brushing against her at least ten times within their limited two-hour training. Yeah, like who would believe it was an honest mistake? But she was certainly thankful he didn’t go beyond long stares and split-second contact. However, her newly assigned partner, apparently named Grace, could just as easily detect William’s leniency and extra attentiveness towards her. When Erika deliberately did things wrong, instea
