"Where have you been? "Her aunt asked while mixing some flour in the bowl. "Aunt, I went to get something for myself. I am sorry I stayed long" she put on the apron. "Sapphire, why are you lying to me? You rushed out of this bakery the moment you set your eyes on him. What do you have with him? " she turns around to face her. "Ignores that because there is nothing to talk about. He is an old friend of mine. I was surprised to see him here. Has that answered your question " She rolled her eyes. "You are hiding something from me. He is the guy you have been talking about. You were heartbroken to see him with another. Sapphire, I know it hurts to see someone you love with another. You have to take things easy with yourself" she continue with what she was doing. "Aunt, you had been right along. He is not the right guy for me. We are two different people from different worlds. I just have to accept my fate and move on with my life" She bows down and her aunt moves closer to her. "Sap

"Now I get it. You and Henrietta planned this up to use it against me. I messed up a big time. The whole thing was so fast. You can never have me with this? " he bared his teeth. "Well, we will see to that. If you don't agree to date me, I will post this video on all social media and TV stations. You know what that means. Have a nice day. Thanks for the meal though " She stood up and walked away. "How did I fall for this? I had to act fast before this video ruin my reputation" he said. He walked out of the cafeteria to look for Henrietta. Luckily for him, Henrietta was coming in his direction. He rushed to meet her. "Henrietta, we need to talk this minute" he grabbed her arm roughly. "Quicney, let's go off me. It's hurt" she scream in pain. He let go of her arm when they got to the bac
" Who must have killed her? She got killed after she told Quicney about the video. Does it mean Quicney has a hand in her death? He killed her to cover up his shame. I will never forgive him for this" All those thoughts kept running through her mind as tears rolls down her cheeks. Her phone rang and she stare at the phone. It was Quicney.

"Jeaune, she has heard you. You have to stop crying. It's hurt me as much as it's hurt you. You have to move on with our life. She will forever remain in our hearts" He said and tears roll down her cheek. "I guess you are right. Her death bore a hole in my heart. Why do they have to kill her? " She shakes with sobs. "God is the right person to answer that question in a way you will get satisfied but he speaks to us in dreams. Courtney is with the lord. Stop crying" He said. Sapphire placed her head on his chest and he hugged her. "It's okay. We love her but God loves her more. He knows why he allowed the enemies to carry out their evil deeds" He said. She removed her head from his chest. "Jeaune, I think we should be friends because I know you won't want to be with a guy that cheats on you. I rather choose you to be your friend than to lose you. For some weeks, I had not been myself " he bow his head. "Quicney, we are more than a friend to each other. I had not been myself since
When Henrietta went home, she rushed to her father's reading room where he store all the necessary documents. She searched for the picture but couldn't find it. "Where could that be?

She wiped it off immediately before walking into the house.. "Sapphire! " Her aunt raised her eyebrows. "Yes, Aunt" she managed to smile. "Why are you back home so early? Did you got suspended from school? " she moves closer to her. " Aunt, the school was boring. I decided to come back home because I feel sick" she lied. "You have been crying.
