Miss Popular ( She’s Everyone choice)

“I have a very big problem, I need someone to talk to, I mean someone who can help, “James said with a teary eye looking down.

“What is that tell me”Angela asked and raised his jaw.

He hugged her tightly crying. “Am sorry, I should have told you this before. Am sorry “James said crying.

“Why are you behaving like this?”Angela asked. James stands up and wipes his tears.

“I am suffering from brain cancer,” James said.

Angela’s eyes widened.

“What… do you mean”Angela stammered.

“Yes am suffering from brain cancer, I was diagnosed some weeks ago. That’s the reason I was asked to come home. The doctor said if I have the chance to survive it just for a year.

He said if we have discovered earlier then it will have been better.

Is too late now” James said trying to control himself.

“Are you serious about this, no please this joke is too expensive on me?” Angela said with teary eyes.

“I can never lie about something so important. I was selfish not to have told you this from the start, I can’t keep this to myself anymore.

My stepdad is trying his best to get money for my treatment, while my real Dad who has so much money doesn’t care about it, he didn’t consider me a son. Because I go against him when he does beat my mum.

He always hit her every day. He divorce my mother, I decided to follow my mother while my little siblings were forced to stay with him.

My life had been miserable from the beginning. Am sure if he hears this he will only laugh at me.

He’s a monster. Even if I am treated, the disease can’t be cured because it wasn’t discovered earlier” James said and break down tears.

“No nothing will happen to you, you won’t die. You will leave with me for the rest of our lives.

Nothing will happen to you. I will get the money for your treatment. The doctor must have a misunderstanding, maybe he wanted to say you will live forever.

He’s just saying nonsense don’t mind him, hmmm. I know you are strong and I am also strong. We will fight this together” Angela who was trying to be strong broke down into tears.

“No, I don’t want to tell you this but I don’t want to be selfish, please don’t cry again “James cried trying to console her.

“You are the one crying here, can’t you see am strong, I can’t cry. No am a strong lady” Angela said and hugged him tightly.

“I shouldn’t have told you this, you won’t stop crying. I tell you this so that you can move on. I think I should end this relationship. I

don’t want you to suffer for my mistake after I might have died. Please Angela I want you to move on.

I will be happy if you do this for my sake” James knee in front of her holding her legs.

Angela drifts off. “Are you mad, how do you expect me to move on like that.Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

What are you saying, I should move on? I can’t leave without you, you know that.

When you know you will leave me why do you come to me, you’ve always protected me. I will stand by you and love you only.

You think I don’t love you hmm. If you are angry with me that I am not always there for you punish me now, but please don’t say such a thing to me ever again.

If not I will kill myself. Nothing will happen to you. You die I die”Angela said and help James to get up.

“Common let me see you to your hostel,” Angela said and wipes his tears with her handkerchief.

“Promised me you won’t say this to anyone,” James said.

Jack and Nicklaus hostel.

“All our efforts were just a waste, damn. Why is it so hard to get deceived? I was happy you will have a great time with Pamela, but that’s was all my imagination “Jack said.

“You guy’s shouldn’t worry. You know I have a lot of plans for him. Am going for plan B and am sure he won’t escape this.

Even his best friend will turn against him.

Everybody would start to hate him. He won’t be able to clean himself from the mess am going to put him into.

Not in this college. He will decide to drop out when everyone hates him so much.

Don’t forget am still the same Kiles Corey and the title remains the same, BAD BOY IN LOVE. I don’t care whatever subtitle anyone gave it, is still the same Kiles Corey” Kile’s said and sniffed.

“So what’s your next move, I want to know what you are up to. Let’s know the plan” Nicklaus said.

“Yes tell us” Jack added.

“Romeo why do you look tense. I have been noticing you since, what’s the problem” Pamela asked and sit beside me.

“Am worried about Angela, I haven’t seen her around. She has never skipped class before. But today she’s not here.

I think I should ask James, this unusual of her “I said.

“I think that’s a good idea, she might have told him something.

So you should ask him” Pamela said.

“Okay I will be back,” I said and stand up.

I went outside the class looking for James. I saw him looking tense.

“James WhatsUp, why do you look tensed “I asked.

“Angela isn’t here, I have called her and she said she will be here soon, but she hasn’t come.

She’s hasn’t missed any class before, “James said.

“You should go inside. Am sure I know where she could be.

I will go and bring her here” I said.

“I will follow you, “James said.

“No, I will go, you should go. The three of us shouldn’t miss class. You should stay, you already look tense.

So go back to the class”, I said holding his shoulder.

“No, don’t forget she’s my girlfriend. I can’t just sit back” James said.

“Don’t you trust me, don’t forget she’s my bestie. So don’t bother am here for you. I will do this” I said.

“Okay, but If you didn’t show up quickly I will go and find her myself, am leaving to you just because I trust you, “James said.

“Sure, just try to smile, “I said and ran towards the studio

Authoress POV

Romeo ran towards the studio and I bumps into Kiles.

He said sorry not knowing is Kiles.

“WOW! Sorry suit you, but I will tender it when you’ve decided to stay away from what is mine”Kiles said smiling.

Romeo laughed. “Do you know the reason I laughed, that’s because your foolishness is getting out of hand.

Can you imagine? And let me warn you now if you try to want you did yesterday again. You would see that Romeo Emery can also be dangerous.

I don’t spare people when you got me upset. Keep your limit.

I gat to go because I have some important things to attend to than going into an unnecessary argument with you” Romeo said and was about to leave.

“Wait, what do you think. I am scared, you won’t be able to harm me “Kiles sai

Romeo went to the studio and found Angela there.

She was playing the keyboard aloud. She cried while playing.

Romeo covers his ears with his hands.

“, Angela” He called out. She quickly wipes her tears.
