MARIE RICHWOOD P.O.V
Nicole was pressed fully into George who held her soft body trying to pacify her; I had taken a few steps from her. Though I had been joyous when my deal with George started, but I was not so happy to see the outcome of it.
George steadied her with his body, finally getting a grip of herself, Nicole pushed him away from her in rage, I was surprised at the force that came from such a small body,”I am not a game for the both of you to play with as you want. How dare you play with me like that?” backing away from him, she covered her tearful face with the back of her hand ”I am such a fool,” She muttered and began walking out of the sport complex.<
CYRUS KAYE P.O.VHow Mom got Dad to retract his words were none of my concern. I had no idea what scheme my mother was cooking. How did she know I was the sole owner of the house we lived in? Something is fishy. She had always made it plain she does not have any interest in me. She even told me I was a mistake that put a hitch on her career, so why the sudden change in attitude.I just could not wrap my head around why she came to get me in the morning at Marie’s house; she offered no further explanation as we walked into the house. Dad had go
MARIE RICHWOOD P.O.V“How soon can we get your Mom to hand over the evidence we need? “ I asked Nicole when George released her“As soon as possible, I would have called her but Dad seized my phone. Therefore, if I can get a phone or I can go her house, I am allowed to go to her house once a month “She said embarrassed, “Alright, make use of my phone, delay is dangerous
MARIE RICHWOOD P.O.VI waited until I heard the last bell. Cyrus had kept to himself throughout the day and I was sick and tired of the sullen attitude. I watched him from the corner of my eye as he arranged his books absentmindedly into his school bag. I sighed; I waited for him to finish with his packing. He threw the bag over his shoulder, ignoring Nicole’s goodbye wish. He stood up from his seat; giving me a small wave, he left the class looking unfocused.
CYRUS KAYE P.O.VI locked myself in my room immediately I came back from school. Mom had tried to talk to me but I did not listen to her. Nan had also tried to get me to talk to her but I ignored them both. Somehow, those two were in cohort. I never knew they were friends; though Mom was rarely home anyway. I noticed the continued absence of my father at home. I refrained from asking. He is a grownup man; he would find his way home. He was probably stewing somewhere having loosed to Mom for the first time in his life.I occupied myself with my compu
CYRUS KAYE P.O.VWe stayed in that position for a long time, Mom held me tightly also not letting go. Gradually she released me, Tears slipping from her eyes, she smiled at me; her happy expression was enough to cure me of all the age long hatred. Giving way for her love“I am sorry, I spoke to you that way. I always thought you did not want me.”
Marie Richwood POVHazel eyes were what woke me up on an early Monday morning, swinging up and down on my pink princess sized bed“George get out of my room” I shouted at my fifteen year old brother“Fine but mummy says go take your bath and come eat” I got up and shoved him to the do
Bells High SchoolCyrus POVFirst day of school resumption was usually a happy day for me, since that was what I loved the most, my head buried among pile of books, the interest for studying started when I was a child, my mom was a busy accountant and my Dad a famous lawyer, he works his brain out taking powerful cases one after the other, My parents simply put do not have the time for each other not to talk of meEv
Marie’s POVI sat as I quietly as I could in the classroom a teacher had been kind enough to guide me to, it was not my culture to be quiet though, but what can I do, it’s my first time in Bells, I need to make good appearance even if it is for just a dayI was about to get up from my sit, turning my golden curls to a side, I looked up to see, what you would call the perfect definition of a nerd, he was a little bit on the fair side though not compareble to my white skin, a big baby to make the description short, I guess someone is yet to lose baby fat, he was so distinct among the cro

MARIE RICHWOOD P.O.VElated at Dad’s approval to let me stay back in South Africa. I was beyond joyous at his affirmation that morning when Mom gave me the news. Mom was grinning too seeing how happy I was. I had no doubt she must have a hand in Dad changing his mind. I thanked her appropriately before entering the car. George was already sitted with Dad who ignored me as I took my seat at the backseat.Cyrus had left the house early in the morning after receiving a call from his mother, a call he had been reluctant to take. Whatever miracle happened. Mrs. Kaye had been able to argue her way out with her husband. Her son was not going to leave his birth home; she had also disclosed that the huge house belonged to Cyrus as his grandfather
MARIE RICHWOOD P.O.VI could not believe what I was being told. Cyrus was an extremely intelligent person. He must have guessed the connection. I was speechless. I never mentioned anything to him but he was able to decode game plan with George and Marie.I looked at him content with my choice, he was so relaxed sitting on my bed, bare chested, the chest I had just been touching minutes ago. He was looking so cool and handsome, I could not believe my luck, not only was he smart, he was gorgeous.“So what you are trying to say now is that Nicole is not in love with you?” George asked for the thi
CYRUS KAYE P.O.VStanding in front of her door, I waited anxiously for Marie to pick up the call. My voice was blocked with so much tears, I just wanted a shoulder to lean on.Turning back, I sauntered into the night. But the sound of my name being called made me halt my steps, I turned to look at Marie, she was leaning against the door frame, she slipped out quietly, her hair was flowing all around her, giving her some sort of angelic look. She had a short blue nightgown on, which stopped mid thighs; I forced my eye to leave her smooth legs that were on full display, fully accentuated by the street light.
