chapter 41{Jealous}Rachel listened to Mr. Sylvester (the math teacher)teach absentmindedly.She is finding it hard to concentrate. What Kelly did earlier is really bothering her at the same time she was thinking about Jabal and feeling guilty she have been ignoring him since she started dating Kelly.She ranked her hand through her hair and slammed her palm on her desk hardly making some students in the classroom flinch.“What is it, Miss dalton ?”Mr. Sylvester asked harshly.“No...nothing” She uttered silently.
chapter 42(first date)“Why are you staring at me,” Rachel asked.“You just amuse me” Kelly commented.“Why?”“You ignored me throughout the week and now you are on a date with me.”“Well, you asked and I agreed. Tho am a bit still angry with you”“Common, Rachel Fine!, am sorry for tearing Jabal's letter to you and acting like a jealous freak but I couldn’t help it. You didn’t even talk to me again but hang out with Jabal till the wee
Chapter 43(Leaving)Lucas and nana stood in front of the janitor’s room staring at themselves.Nana folds her arms and looks at him.“You want to tell me something?”Lucas scratch his head nervously.”Erm....”“Talk now or am leaving” Nana threatened.“I want to change my school” He broke the news.“What?”Her eyes widened and then she scoffed.“Why? when?How?&

CHAPTER 45[THINGS FALL APART] Jabal shifted away immediately staring at Alicia in anger.“What the hell is wrong with you!” He half yelled.“I kissed you and so fucking what! Why don’t you just notice me! Why are you after Rachel? She doesn’t even like you. She is with someone else yet you still won’t stop chasing after her. Aren’t I pretty enough?”“Alicia, you are crazy”“No!, you are the crazy one here. I don’t regret kissing you and am going to do it aga
Chapter 46[Break up](THE NEXT DAY)Rachel got to the school premises with nana.She knows she is going to be seeing Kelly but she have also made up her mind to ignore him.There were about entering the homeroom when they both heard Kelly’s voice.He sprinted over to them. “Hi Rachel,” He said softly but she ignored him and walked to her seat not acknowledging his presence.Kelly raked his hand in his hair frustratedly and he walked to his seat too sadly.It is killing him Rachel is ignoring him. He really wants everything to go back to normal.She didn’t break up with him and that a relief but acting like he don’t even exist seems to be worst.Nothing would change the fact he cheated and he wish he can turn back the hands of time but Rachel isn’t even ready to talk to him.
Chapter 47{Forgive me, Rachel}“Boys are stupid,” Nana said for the hundredths time.“I know... I know” Rachel patted her back. “It alright okay?”“It not...I know he cheated but he is willing to let me go, just like that, it just so painful.
