I'M IN LOVE WITH MY BEST FRIEND Hidden feelings
🌿1🌿 🌿 Heidi’s POV🌿 The best feeling in the world is knowing that someone out there gat your back, that someone out there would fight for you even when you are not there.Yeah, for me, that’s the best feeling.And that person to me, is Lucas Rodriguez. He’s someone I grew up with, we were practically birthed in the same neighborhood. We’ve known each other all our lives, and the bond between us was bigger than what most siblings could have.My bestie. My first love. My everything – well –apart from my father who had taken care of me ever since Mom left. He also means a lot to me.People would always mistake me for a boy at first sight. Only when they look harder would they realize I was a girl.And why did I become a tomboy? Because Lucas was like my twin. I learned how to dress like him, learned how to drum like him but never cut my hair which I always plaited into two rough ponytails.I would say I wasn’t a bit attractive, maybe it was my dress sense, my boyish
I'M IN LOVE WITH MY BEST FRIEND Disastrous night
🌿2🌿 Heidi’s POVDad was waiting for me in the living room when I got home, I jumped into his arms as usual.Dad was incredibly so young and handsome, and it wondered me how he has been able to escape the ladies.Well, that was to my own advantage. I still had my Dad all to myself. The last thing I wanted was a woman who’s not Mom to come into our house, and take away my Dad’s attention.“How was school?” He asked, pecking my hair before letting my feet touch the ground.I dropped my bag on a sofa, nodding. “It was great. Are you still going on that trip Dad?”Dad nodded. “I was waiting for you. Here’s my card. You know my pin, right?”I nodded. “Dad? Lucas is spending the night here.”Dad stopped, turned and looked at me. “Lucas? Rodriguez’s son?”I rolled my eyes at the unnecessary question. “How many Lucas do you know, dad? I don’t even have any other friend apart from him.” I replied, sitting down to remove my shoes.Dad came closer, sat beside me and put a arm around me. “Y
I'M IN LOVE WITH MY BEST FRIEND Meeting Daniella
🌿3🌿 💦Heidi’s POV💦I sneaked out of my room half an hour later, went downstairs and met Lucas watching 'Spatacus' while munching on the popcorn.He turned to look at me, smiled brightly. “Oh! Are you okay now?”I shook my head, folded my arms as I stared at him. “Can’t believe you are here, enjoying yourself while I cried upstairs. Seriously?”Lucas stared at me and shrugged. “I asked you what was wrong with you, but you said you wanted to be alone, right?”I rolled my eyes and joined him in the sofa. “Where did you meet her?” I asked after a while. “Your new girlfriend.”“At school. She’s the sweetest thing ever.” Lucas replied, turning back to look at the TV.He wasn’t even noticing the sadness in my eyes. He changed within the twinkle of an eye, and it hurt badly.He didn’t stop to ask for my opinion like before, he didn’t stop to check my countenance.And there, I knew I’d lost my best friend to someone else.So, that night turned out to be a total disaster. ?

We are gonna be talking about the school concert for the year. The play is going to be based on friendship and love.”At the mention of that, the whole place lightened up with cheering while some only mocked at it.I had just one thought in my head as I thought about the play's theme. I thought about Lucas. It was as though, the play was gonna be about us.“The main and supporting roles will be chosen according to your outlooks and performances. Rehearsals starts immediately the bell rings.” Mrs. McClure announced.She left the class few minutes later, and everyone started talking about the concert.After classes were over, everyone started heading towards the school hall.

🌿5🌿 Heidi’s POV“I don’t wanna see you!” I yelled from inside my room at my dad who stood outside my door, trying to get me to unlock the door.I was too mad to face him. I just couldn’t or I could end up saying things I shouldn’t say.“My love. I promise that I’m sorry you had to see that, okay?”“I don’t wanna see you!” I yelled again, took off my shoes and threw it at the door.“Okay! Come down when you are calm! I love you!”Everything was silent after that, and I breathed in, trying to calm my nerves.I laid down on the bed, the image I saw downstairs refused to leave my head.My stomach growled and I knew I had no option than to go downstairs. I was famished, I didn’t eat lunch at school.I was getting into my purple t-shirt when my phone began to buzz. I got to it, and saw it was Lucas who was calling.I folded my arms, staring down at the phone. So, now what? After taking sides with his new little girlfriend, he finally realized he had to call me?I picked up the c
I'M IN LOVE WITH MY BEST FRIEND Daniella's visit
🌿 6🌿 Heidi’s POV I still couldn’t believe she was who I thought she was, so I had to ask. “What are you doing here?” She flashed me a surprised smile. “Heidi! I really didn’t know I was coming to your house until I got into the street. It’s such a small world, yeah?” I scoffed, glaring at her. “First, it was you and now, it’s your mother who’s trying to force her way into my dad’s life?” The smile on her face disappeared. “My Mom would never force herself on any one. She’s beautiful and successful. She’s a lawyer.” “Yeah, yeah, yeah. Bla bla bla.” I rolled my eyes, turned away from the door as I walked back in, leaving her standing at the doorway. Dad stared at me as I walked back to my seat. “Where is she?” “She what?” “She just knocked at the door right now, Heidi. When will you stop being so perky...” he stopped talking when he heard Daniella’s shoes making noise on the floor behind him. He snapped around to look back at me. “Heidi! When did you become so rude?” I g
I'M IN LOVE WITH MY BEST FRIEND Strange!!
🌿7🌿 NEWTON Heidi’s POV I woke up a little bit late because I didn’t feel like going to school. I didn’t even feel like stepping out of my room, because I didn’t wanna bump into Luciana and her daughter. I didn’t feel like doing anything. Yes, that was how mad and irritated I was. But I needed to go to school. The school concert was coming up, and I badly wanted a lead role. I was brushing my hair in front of my mirror when a small knock landed on my door. I snapped around to look at the door, wondering who could be knocking. “What do you want??” “It’s me, my love. It’s dad. Do you mind opening…” “No! No, dad. I’m not gonna do that.” I replied, turning back to the mirror. “You know I love you, right? I really do, and you are the best thing that has ever happened to me. You are the most important thing in my life. Trust me, my love.” Dad’s voice sounded soothing, apologetic. And all the anger I felt started to drop. I turned, walked towards the door. When I opened the
I'M IN LOVE WITH MY BEST FRIEND Terrified
🌿8🌿 🌿Heidi’s POV 🌿I stared on in shock as the ambulance left with the police van.Dad held my hand, squeezed tightly, helping me to calm down.It was as though, I was dreaming. Why would someone wanna kill an old quiet lady like Aryan's grandmother?“Dearie…you have to go in and offer Aryan some support. She doesn’t have anyone now.”I stared up at dad, nodded and made my way into the house.*I put a arm around Aryan as we sat together on her bed. We were silent. Everywhere was damn silent except for her sniffing.There was an unanswered question in the air. When I turned to look at Aryan, she was already staring at me.“Did she tell you what she wanted to say to me?” I asked quietly.Aryan shook her head and more tears fell off her red eyes. “No. And I think it’s related to her death. I think she found out something very serious, I think she saw what she shouldn’t have seen.”“And why would she choose to tell me instead? Why did she choose me?” I asked, really confused.

It was a little bit dark in the room when Tristan walked in. Gianna was awake, she was sitting up quietly."Hey." Tristan whispered as he walked towards the bed. He sat at the edge and took Gianna's hand in his. "How are you now?"Gianna smiled and shrugged. "I've never been any better. Thank you."Tristan stared down at her stomach, smiled and looked back into her face. "My baby is still down there?"Gianna chuckled. "Yeah. She or he is still there, waiting for the day of arrival into the world. How did you get here? Why did you change your mind?"Tristan shrugged. "I don't know, perhaps... because I couldn't continue living without you, because I wanted to see Layla and to forgive her so I could get the burden off my chest.""You did the right thing, Tristan. The right thing..." Gianna's voice trailed off when she remembered all that Nelson had said."What's it? Are you okay?" Tristan questioned when he noticed the sudden change in her mood. Gianna turned and looked at him. "While
I'M IN LOVE WITH MY BEST FRIEND Reconciliation
That same night, Tristan left the house quietly. He was glad that both his mother and Tracy were already fast asleep and that made it possible and easy for him to leave.He dialled the line which Nicholas had called him with as he walked briskly to his car. Just when he got in, Nicholas picked the call."I'm on my way right now, send the address to this number." Tristan said, starting the car engine."I already sent it. The police are just arriving! I will hang up now because I have to escape. He's going to kill me.""Wait... what is...?" Tristan stopped when the line clicked off. He threw the phone on the seat beside him and drove out of the compound, speeding away madly in the dark.**Nelson bursted into the room, rushing towards Gianna who looked very alarmed. The sounds of siren was all over the place which indicated that the police were around. Nelson grabbed Gianna, loosening the ropes bounding her. He jerked her up to her feet and started dragging her out of room.Struggling
I'M IN LOVE WITH MY BEST FRIEND The heart lifting call
Nicholas sat in the dark, thinking deeply on what to do. He needed to save Gianna at all cost, he needed to redeem his mistakes and real fast.He was still finding it hard to believe he helped abduct Gianna who was pregnant."I'm never going to forgive myself if anything happens to her, I need to talk to Tristan right away. No matter the consequences, I need to do this." Nicholas thought.He stood up and walked slowly towards the main entrance. He stood in front of the door, eavesdropping. He could hear Nelson, talking to Gianna. He backed the door, steadying his breath. He would have to wait for another opportunity to be alone with Gianna again, and that would enable him get Tristan's contact.Quietly, he left the main entrance back to the veranda.**"You're not going to achieve anything with what you are doing, give up already because you are about to hit rock bottom." Gianna said softly to Nelson who was seated in front of her.Nelson stared down at the cigarette between his fin

"Where have you been?" Agnes asked, standing up from the couch.Samantha looked at Quentin, she couldn't bring herself to tell him that his daughter was missing but she had to tell him somehow."I'm coming from Gianna's house...""Is something wrong?" Quentin asked when Samantha's voice trailed off.Samantha nodded, closing her eyes. "Gianna is missing, someone abducted her." Samantha said, wiping tears off her face. Quentin frowned, trying to understand what the girl was saying. "What do you mean by she's been abducted? By who?""My brother." Samantha replied with more tears.Agnes gasped, her hands covering her mouth. "Nelson?" Samantha nodded.Samantha nodded."Why? Why would he do that?" Agnes asked again."He's using her as a bait to get someone." Samantha replied. She looked at Quentin and all she

"He's calling again." Nelson laughed when Gianna's phone began to ring again in his hand. He answered the call and put the phone on loud speaker. "You never give up, don't you? Why don't you give up and just go to bed?""What do you want?" Tristan cold voice came from the other side of the line. "Tell me what he sh*t you want!" "I don't think you have what I want, b*stard. Do you have my father there with you? I will like to exchange him for your Gianna. She looks so pretty, you know. What shall I do with her?" Nelson asked in a menacing tone. "Why would I have you father? What the hell do you want?" Tristan asked again."Are you asking me that? You brought down my family you jerk! My father is suffering away in the prison and you dare ask me that? You want Gianna back, huh? Come find her.""Where are you?" Tristan asked in a stiff voice. He stood beside the road, glaring angrily. "Put Gianna on the line, I want to make sure she's fine." *Nelson stared down at Gianna and smiled ev
I'M IN LOVE WITH MY BEST FRIEND Threats
"Goddamit!" Tristan cursed, almost smashing the phone on the ground.Samantha was trembling. She just spoke to her brother and he sounded like a different person entirely."He's got Gianna! What are we gonna do!" Samantha panicked.Tristan stood akimbo, boiling and fuming with anger. "He doesn't know who he's dealing with. He's making a bug mistake with me." Tristan voice was extremely cold and deep.Samantha trembled more. She fear she might lose her brother and she couldn't stop thinking about Gianna. Why would Nelson ever think of abducting her? Why her? Sammy thought deeply."I should call Tracy and Layla, and let them know what's happening." Samantha said with trembling voice.Tristan didn't reply, he was too devasted to say anything. He sat down on the nearest sofa, contemplating on what to do."Don't call them yet." Tristan said just when Samantha was going to dial Tracy's line. "What? They have to know what's happening. At least, her mother." Samantha chipped in."I need to t

Gianna was coming back into the house after seeing Samantha off when her phone began to ring. She was a little bit surprised to see it was Nicholas."Hi. You finally called? How have you been!" Gianna asked excitedly."I've been... good...yeah... fine." Nicholas stammered badly from the other line."Are you sure you are okay? You sound tensed. Where are you now?""Huh?" Nicholas asked and Gianna had to repeat the question. "I'm still here in Philadelphia. Stranded." He replied."Oh no. That's very awful. What are you gonna do now? I can't seem to be of help right now." Gianna sighed. She got home and walked into the house, sat down on a chair."It's fine, Gianna. I just wanted you to know I'm okay. I will get a job soon enough and start all over again.""And your dad? How's he?" "He returned to the country side where my mother is. I think that's what's best for him at this month." Nicholas mumbled q reply."What happened to Nelson and his father though?" Gianna asked.The other side

"Boss...are you going somewhere?""Yeah. I'm taking your advice, I hope I'm not too late." Tristan said as he stuffed his clothes into a bag.Matteo smiled and sgihed his head. "You are not late, boss. Go on and do the right thing." He replied."I will be back tomorrow or the day after, then we can head back to Italy." Tristan said and Matteo nodded."Okay boss. Tahe your time... there's no hurry."

Samantha's voice could be heard from the other line.Tristan sat down on the bed and ran a hand over his hair nervously. "I'm sorry, Samantha but things have not been easy. I need your help, I need to see Gianna.""Gianna? You miss her, don

The next morning, Gianna woke up feeling really sick. She sat up in bed, rushed to the bathroom and threw up."Oh no. I thought I got over this." She mumbled as she returned to her bed.Her mother must have heard her because she came running into the room."Gianna." She called, coming into the room. "Are you okay?" She asked as she sat beside her on the bed.Gianna shook her head, putting her head on the woman's shoulder. "No...I think I'm a little bit under the weather.""We have to go thr hospital then. Come on." Tracy urged, standing up."No. That's not necessary. I will get over it with some pills."Tracy sighed and stared down at her daughter. " Have you called the Tristan guy? What did he say?""He didn't the call, I guess he's busy." Gianna mumbled, laying back down comfortably.The door opened and Layla came in too. "Is she alright?" "Yeah...just a slight fever I guess." Tracy replied with a shrug."Then we should go to the hospital. It's dangerous to ignore it.""No, Layla.
