Amber opened the door and all eyes were on her as she walked in except for Maya's who just glanced at her and kept staring at Yana and Wenda."They are still not up?" Amber asked slowly"You're stating the obvious" Liza snapped"Mom, can I see you for a moment?""What for?" Maya asked as she turned to her"I want to apologize for what happened earlier, I wasn't in my right sense of thinking""Oh! I see. So now? You're in your right sense? That's good to hear" Maya scoffed and stared at those on the ground again.Suddenly, Jaeleah fell on her back on the bed and Maya panicked and she slightly patted her face to wake her but she wasn't responding. Alicia and Raul also rushed to help Jaeleah but she still wasn't waking up. At that moment when they were so worried about Jaeleah, they all heard sneezing and it was from Wenda and Yana - Miss Peyton rushed to hug them."I'm glad you two made it" She said in tears, still hugging them."Jaeleah! Wake up. Please, wake up, Jaeleah" Alicia sobbed
Liza went to the garden with the hope of meeting Aria there but she was not there when she got there. With disappointment written over her face, she slowly sat on the bench and swang her feet as she leaned on both hands. "Were you waiting for me?" Aria asked with a big smile from behind her, startling Liza.Liza looked back and smile softly, "I thought you had gone""I told you I have no place to stay for now so I'm going to be here for a while" she said as she took her seat beside Liza"My bad, I almost forgot about it""So what about your family? Are they awake now?" She pouted her lips and blinked her eyes repeatedly"Yes!" She said with a big smile"They are currently resting""Wow! That is great news. I guess the search for Miss Peyton's daughter would begin soon then" she had a change of expression on but Liza wasn't looking at her at the moment."Sure! It could be as soon as tomorrow. I can't wait to see who her child is , you know she's also my family; the child of my brother
"This is so delicious" Amber said after the first bite as she briefly closed her eyes to savour the taste."I told you you were going to like it""Yeah, I love this. We should come here more often, babe""Sure!" His response was fast and he grinned at her while she was so engrossed in the meal."That would be if you would still be in your right senses after tonight" He thought.After they had finished eating, Adrian paid for the meal and they stepped out of the eatery. They had only taken few steps from the eatery when a black tinted car crossed them and before Adrian could say anything, two hefty looking men stepped out of the car with guns in their hands."Get in the car!" The first one yelled"NOW!" The second one added as they hesitated.Amber and Adrian rushed into the car and the car zoomed off at a very high speed. While they were in the car, one of the men brought out two pieces of cloth, gave one to the other man and they both blind folded Amber and Adrian.*It was late in t
Amber slowly regained consciousness and grunted as she felt a deep pain in her wrists and ankles, she tried to move but she was restricted by the ropes tied to her legs and hands. She tilted her neck to her left and saw Adrian who was also tied up and unconscious, she looked around and realized that they were alone."Adrian! Adrian! Look over here" She said in almost a whisper and Adrian slowly gained consciousness.Adrian's eyes brightened as he saw that Amber was tied up and he tried to get up to help her but realized that he is also tied."Calm down, Adrian. We need to find a way out of here""How did we get here? What do they want from us?""How am I supposed to know about that?" Amber snapped and Adrian bit his lower lip."Maybe you should mind link with Miss Peyton" Amber said after she thought for a while, forgetting that she could do it herself."Okay, let me give it a try" he said in a low tone"A try?" She sneered"I'm sorry but I've not mind linked with anyone since I had m
Maya raced to where Amber was and untied her and hugged her, Amber's eyes glistened with tears and she pushed Maya away and ran out of the place. Liza and Miss Peyton took the two men away while Maya walked up to where Adrian was and untied him."Thank you, ma'am" He mumbled after Maya untied him and he walked out of the place.Maya watched him as he retreated from the room with her brows raised and a lot running through her mind."Where did Amber go to?" Liza approached Maya and asked."I don't know, she just ran out""Something is wrong somewhere, I need to find her" Liza said and sprinted out of the room before Maya could utter any word.*Liza found Amber beside a small lake beside the place of incident, she was seated on the ground and weeping bitterly. Liza paused her steps as she saw the way she was crying and was confused on what had happened in there and approached her in a slow pace. She sat beside her and pulled her in for a hug, Amber's sobbing went louder and she let out
"What? How did that happen? Did mom plan this too?" Ignacio asked, already boiling with anger."Calm down, Ignacio. I just want you to know that I am on you side and Amber was never on my bad list, I just hated the fact that she was stronger but I can't do anything bad to her, knowing how much you love her""It doesn't matter if I love her anymore, she has moved on and she hates me so much for what happened back then""Maybe so you think, you can't make conclusions for her. Do you think she would still chose Adrian after she finds out all the bad he has done to her?""Do you know why he planned the kidnap?""I don't know yet but all I know was that mom was furious when she heard the new so I guess she didn't plan it and maybe we can get something from her when she gets back. She would be so excited to see you""Okay, I'll just rest for a while then" He said and Iris retreated from the room.Ignacio sat on the edge of the bed as soon as Iris was out of the room."I wonder how she is fe
Amber watched as Liza sprinted out of the Hall and rolled her eyes and sprinted out as well. Miss Peyton took turns to glare at Alvin and Maya, hissed and walked out of the Grand Hall, Maya fell to the ground with little tears that glistened her eyes."Do you think I'm not right as well? All I'm trying to do is to bring the family together but I fail each time""No, Maya. You are not a failure and I'm so proud of you for how far you have come. This is just a normal misunderstanding every family has and I'm sure everyone would come around soon." Alvin walked to her and pulled her in for a hug"Let's go check up on Yana" She sniffled and wiped her tears.They both headed to Miss Peyton's room*Liza only sprinted some few miles away from the school when she pulled to a halt and stared back at the school for some seconds, with Anna in her hands."Do you think what I'm doing is right? Amber is really none of my business, this is Peyton's fight""That is why you are family; you fight for e
She saw on the diary something she least expected and still find it hard to believe."What? Jenna lost her baby? So who is Amber? Why did she lie to Kyle?" She thought aloud.She grabbed the diary, threw it on the bed, arranged the closet back to its original state and left the room with the diary in her hand.She got into the car, revved it in motion and drove off at a very high speed to the school.*Amber sprinted to another Hall in the school and walked into one of the room. She walked to the window side and opened it, she leaned her hands against the window wall and huffed as if it was going to be her last. She brought out her phone and punched in some digits and the caller picked on the fifth attempt."Why are you calling me?" Adrian yelled as soon as he answered the call."Calm down, babe. All of these wasn't my family fault""Really? So is it my fault? Is it my family that is complaining? You should talk to your family and not me! I'm not needed!" He yelled again."Who told yo
