"Jasper may try to win you now just for the fun of it, but don’t forget who’s always been there for you, who knows you better than anyone, who would tolerate your crab," Colin said.

I met Colin's eyes and then looked at Jasper even though he was covered by the crowd. I could feel he is genuine unlike Colin. refusing to let his words sway me. I held my ground, Colin persisted, took my arm and drew me closer.

"Aren't you hearing me?" Colin said, I left my arm and reached out to take my hand, but I stepped back, creating a distance between us.

I turned to the cabinet but my phone wasn't there. "Where is David?" I muttered to myself.Just then a nurse opened the door. And I immediately raised my hand. "Doctor, Doctor he's awake!" she called out, And then I heard foot steps and the doctor walked in.

Selena replied. I took a step forward, but Selena moved backwards, "Colin, please, just go. It's over. I'm not an object that you can claim ownership of. Remember, I am my own person," Selena added and then turned to Jasper. "Jasper, let's go,". She said and placed her hand on his arms, Selena and Jasper walked past me and walked down the hallway.

His words had hit me and had made my heart flutter, and I could feel blood rushing to my cheeks."I want you to know…." I trailed off and swallowed hard. "that I've never stopped thinking about you. I've missed you every day since we stopped talking, but I was too stubborn to admit it."We suddenly heard a door crack open and Levi quickly turned back and then faced me, " That might be my mom. She's on her way here to wish me good night. Can we meet tomorrow?""Sure," I stepped back, giving Levi some space, and tried to regain my composure. "Just tell me where and when."Levi glanced over his shoulder, listening for the sound of footsteps. "Meet me at the cafe downtown tomorrow at noon, We can talk more then."I nodded, and before I could say anything else, Levi leaned forward and pressed a quick kiss to my cheek. "Goodnight, Aviva," he whispered, his breath tickling my skin. Levi turned to le

    Aviva POVI gasped, shutting my mouth with my hands and pulled myself back into my room. I watched Levi step out of the car and glance over at our house. I can't let him see me. Dad had already issued his ultimatum and made it clear that I was on probation but still I refuse being on one. If Levi saw me trying to escape, he might try to help, and that would only make things worse. I held my breath and pressed myself against the wall, praying Levi wouldn't catch a glimpse of me through the window. After a few tense moments, I breathed a sigh of relief as Levi walked into their house ,probably not expecting me to be standing at the side of my window. The thought of Levi in town, just across the street, made me so excited. If only I could see him, talk to him, tell him what had happened. But that would be foolish, and I knew better. I stood in the darkened corner of my room, keeping a watchful eye on the street. It was getting really dark, and I found myself wishing for it to get very d

    Aviva POVDad finally turned to look at me, his expression unreadable. For a long moment, he said nothing, simply staring at me as if he were trying to see into my very soul.At last, he spoke, his voice as hard and cold as steel. "Aviva, I hope you understand the seriousness of your actions today. Not only did you endanger yourself, but you also brought dishonor to our family name. Do you have anything to say for yourself?"I swallowed hard, my throat suddenly feeling dry. "I'm sorry, Dad," I whispered, maybe this will defuse his anger, i bent my head, unable to meet his gaze so everything could die down. Dad's face remained expressionless, his gaze still fixed on me. "Sorry is not enough," he said flatly. "You need to understand that your actions have consequences. You were warned about associating with the Santos family, yet you deliberately disobeyed me. This will not be tolerated."I felt my heart sinking as I listened to his words, knowing that whatever punishment he had in sto

What happened?" she asked.The Vice-Chancellor cleared his throat, clearly uncomfortable with the situation. "I'm afraid there has been an altercation on campus," he began. "Both Aviva and Jeff Benson have been involved, they got into a fight, and there are consequences for their actions."Dad frowned, "What kind of consequences?" he demanded, But then turned to me, "Before that, Aviva, what happened? Why did you and Jeff…Ben get into a fight?"I swallowed hard, trying to find the right words. "He...he was being aggressive, and I tried to defend myself.""And why was he being aggressive?" my mother pressed, glancing at Jeff."Because..." I hesitated, knowing that the truth would only make the situation worse.Dad stepped closer, his eyes narrowing. "Because why, Aviva? Don't make me ask again."I bit my lip, feeling my heart pounding in my chest. "Because he was

    Aviva POV For a month I heard nothing about Levi, I tried his contact but it wasn't reachable, I got Sam's contact and asked him about Levi but he said nothing and told me he has nothing to say to me. " what do you mean you have nothing to say to me, i really want to know about Levi i haven't heard from him for a month" " That's none of my concern Aviva or whatever you are called" Sam snapped, " You messed with Levi and now you want to know about him, what audacity!" I stared at the screen of my phone, stunned by Sam’s words. How could he just brush me off like that? I know I made a mistake. Despite Sam’s hostility, I decided to keep trying to find out what's up with Levi. I strolled out the house and waited at our gate staring at the Santos house waiting to see if I would catch sight of Levi but I didn't for a week. One evening i waited, staring at the Santos house when I saw the house help walk out with a trash bag. Immediately I came out and followed her from behind, when she

    Levi POV"Are you serious?" I asked, glancing around, "Just because Jeff Benson wants something, doesn't mean he will get it. Aviva is a person, not some prize to be won."Sam shrugged, clearly unconvinced. "Look, I'm just telling you how it is. Jeff is the king of this place right now. If he wants Aviva, he'll get her. And once he does, she'll forget all about you." "You don't know Aviva like I do, Sam. She's not some shallow girl who can be bought with money or status and besides her Dad is rich."“ Oh come on, who doesn’t want to have fun with the big guys?” “ She isn’t like that!”Sam shook his head, “I get that you're all in on this, but you need to open your eyes, man. Aviva might be special to you, but she's just another conquest to Jeff. He'll get bored of her in a week and move on to the next girl, and you'll be left picking up the pieces."I scoffed, ignoring Sam's words. "You don't know what you're talking about. Aviva is different. She won’t allow that, I trust her with

It's a prestigious program, and not everyone gets in."I swallowed hard. "But I...I don't want to go."Mom's brow furrowed in confusion. "Why not? This is a great opportunity, Levi. It could open up so many doors for you and like you always say, you want to work on things yourself without your dad’s help, this is it."I shook my head. "I just…"I just don't want to leave," I said firmly, my eyes meeting Mom's. "I have my life here, my friends, my studies. And while I appreciate the opportunity, it's not what I want right now.""Levi, are you sure about this? This could be a life changing opportunity for you.""I know, Mom," I replied, "But I'm happy with the life I have here. I don't want to uproot everything for this program."Mom's expression hardened as she realized I wasn't budging. "Levi, you're being inc

"Hey, Mom," I said, the smile still frozen on my face. "What are you doing here?" "Oh, I was just in the neighborhood and thought I'd stop by for a visit. It's so nice to see you, honey."I glanced nervously toward the restroom, wondering what Aviva would say if she saw Mom here. "That's great, Mom. But I should probably get back to class..."Mom shook her head, putting a hand on my arm. "Don't be silly, Levi. I was hoping we could spend some time together," Mom said, her smile turning into a gentle pout. "I haven't seen you in weeks! You've been so busy with school and everything else."I sighed, knowing I couldn't say no to Mom. "Okay, okay. Maybe just for a little while."Mom beamed, wrapping an arm around my shoulders and leading me away from the restroom and toward a table. I beat her to it and sat on the chair faci
