NEXT MORNING~ RESIDENCE OF THE BLANCOS‘
November’s face swelled up before daybreak, she was expecting it anyways since she cried throughout the night.
She was sitting on the bare floor of her bathroom, she had no strength to leave the bathroom after she eased herself last night.
Adelia peeped into the bathroom, and she looked up.
“Clean up, we’re going somewhere” she said and left
November wondered where as she stood and stripped.
Her body feels so hot, she definitely has a high fever.
She stepped into the tub and had a slow bath.
When she stepped out, she finally gathered strength to walk into the room.
She was surprised to see that a bag has been packed beside her bed, and a dress has been laid on the bed.
“Cream and put that on, be fast” Adelia said, and she didn’t bother to even ask why.
She did as she was told, and after dressing up sluggishly, Matteo came in and took the bag out.
“Our flight is 7, we have to move fast” Adelia said, pulling her out.
” Flight? ” She finally spoke.
” We’re traveling to my mum’s place in Spain” Adelia replied.
” Huh?, Spain? ”
” Let’s go” Adelia tried pulling her but she held back.
“I have to inform Silver first, he has to know” she said and got her phone.
She was about to dial Newton’s line when Adelia snatched the phone from her.
“Mum!
Adelia rushed into the bathroom and November ran after her till they got there.
She threw the phone into the toilet and flushed it away.
“No mum…. Mum my phone… Silver…
” Stop calling that name and let’s get out of this messed up country! ” Adelia yelled.
” No mum, I’ll have to go inform him in person then, I can’t leave without telling him” November replied.
Then she remembered all her promises not to leave or stay away from him.
She looked at Adelia in the eye.
“I’m not even leaving, I can’t leave him, no mum I’m not going to Spain, I dont want to be away from him!!! ” She cried, stepping back.
” You really want this the hard way, right?” Adelia replied.
“I’m not going anywhere” November replied and ran out of the room.
She ran downstairs and Immediately she got to the main door and opened it, Matteo sprayed sedative on her face.
“D… Da… Dad” she whispered sleepily before falling on him, sleeping off.
” I knew she’d never agree, my poor daughter, I’m so sorry but I just have to do this” Matteo said as Adelia came downstairs.
” I’m so sorry Ember, but this is definitely for you” she said and kissed her forehead in Matteo’s arms.
Matteo took her to the car, and they both entered too.
“Bye New York” Matteo said, looking out of the window.
Adelia felt tears leaving her eyes as Matteo moved the car to the airport.

HARLEY’S HOSPITAL**
“Bora is dead” Denver said, entering Katy’s ward.
Ixora spranged up from her seat.
“What!”
“Yes, I heard her parents crying in her ward just now, she really bled till death as predicted” Denver replied.
” I really don’t pity her though, she deserves even more, heard that was her twentieth this year” Ixora replied.
” Ixora” Katy called and they both rushed to her bed.
“My sis, is she…. Dead?” Katy asked.
Ixora and Denver exchange glances.
She has been so scared to tell her about it, even with the fact that today is her burial.
“How did you…
” I saw her in my dreams, she told me not to feel lonely and start seeing you as her, is it true?, Is she…. Gone? ” Katy said, tears threatening to fall from her eyes.
” Oh Katy” Ixora sobbed, hugging her.

GRAVESITE**
Kennedy came out of the car with Ricardo, their black suits looking grievous as they walked towards the crowd.
Numerous governors from other states and influential personalities filled the site already, the burial will soon start.
Keaton and governor John’s golden coffins were already beside the grave, ready to be lowered.
The place is overflowing with people, there’s barely space to walk around.
Mr Killarney’s car stopped at the same time, and immediately he came out, Kennedy started walking faster.
He rushed to get a hold of him.
“Kennedy…
“I’m in no mood to talk to you, please stay away” Kennedy interrupted and shook his hand away before leaving with Ricardo.
Lady Sawyer’s car stopped next, and immediately she came out, her eyes met with Mr Killarney’s.
She winked secretly at him, and he acted unaffected as they walked to the graveside.
Wendy was given the opportunity to attend her father’s burial by the court.
She was brought in handcuffs by the cops.
Francisco sat on the bare ground beside Keaton’s coffin.
Newton was standing beside Monique and Dahlia, looking inside the grave as if to jump in and die.
Since he woke up this morning, he hasn’t spoken to anyone at all.
Everyone is crying, wailing and grieving as the minister in charge of the burial stepped forward.
“We shall now start the….
Esmeralda snuck in beside Newton, then she whispered something into his ear.
Immediately he heard, his eyes widened.
He looked at Esmeralda and saw tears in her eyes.
“Newton…
He ran like a cheetah out of the site, leaving everyone speechless.
“What did you tell him?” Monique and Dahlia asked at a time.
“November… November left New York” Esmeralda cried.
” What! ”
@@@@
” No…. No Gracie, not you too… Not you… You can’t leave too, didn’t you promise to stay till the end?, I know you’re not a betrayer, you can’t betray me and leave just like that, you can’t!!!! ” Newton shouted as he drove fast down the road, not obeying a single traffic rule.
“You said you love me, you said you can’t live without me just like I can’t live without you, you said you’ll stay forever Gracie!!!, Don’t leave me… I’m gonna die, please don’t go… Don’t go muffin, you’re the only one I have left, it’s only you right now, don’t leave me too please!!! ” He screamed in tears again when he was about to turn to her street.
His blood wet his clothes already, he’s even bleeding from the mouth and ears already.
“Don’t go…. Don’t… Don’t go… Don’t…
His eyes widened when a car ran out of the street corner…
Before he could breath again, it collided with his car.
Flames emanated, wires sparked, gas got punctured, and the two cars exploded.
