*****ZODE’S MANSION*****
The driver drove to the parking lot and Rocky carried Raquel who fell asleep on his laps
He carried her inside while Channel held her tablet trailing behind him
He got to her room and placed her gently on the bed. He pecked her forehead before walking out of the room not sparing her a glance
Channel placed her tablet on her reading table and proceeded to pull off her shoe
She tucked her properly before leaving her room. She checked the time and it still quite early
She walked downstairs and met Rocky sitting on the couch with his laptop on his laps
She walked towards him playing with the tip of her top. She took slow strides towards him and he looked
He stared at her for a while because taking his eyes off her. He diverted his gaze back to his laptop
“What do you want?”. He asked coldly making her shiver
“Can I speak with Arlette?”. She asked in a shaky voice while Rocky sighed as he picked his phone
He stretched it towards her and she collected it with shaky hands. She looked at the screen wondering what next she would do
“Can’t you operate it?”. He asked not taking his eye off his laptop
“Yes”. She muttered but unfortunately for her, he heard what she said and stretched his hand towards her
She gave it to him and he dialed Arlette’s number before giving it back to her
“Wait till you hear her voice”. He said as he stood. He walked upstairs with his laptop and she beamed immediately she heard Arlette’s voice
“Arlette!!!!!”. She screamed jumping like a kid who was given a lollipop
“Channel how are you doing?”. She asked and it obvious she also is happy
“Fine. What about you?”. Channel replied giggling
“Not good without you”. She replied and that made her blush
“Sorry about that”. Channel said feeling sad
“That aside. So how is your crush?”. She asked and Channel hissed
“He is so mean”. Channel replied and hissed again
“He is just like that. Trust me, he is cool and nice if you get to know him”. Arlette said chuckling in between her words
“That will be in my dreams”. Channel replied and they both laughed
“Wait…how then did you get to collect his phone?”. Arlette asked curiously
“I just tried my luck and it worked”. Channel replied
“Awww… I miss you”. She said while Channel chuckled
“I miss you more. Promise me you will visit very soon”. Channel said twisting her hair with a finger
“I promise. Bye. Take good care of yourself”. She said and kissed the phone before hanging up
Channel smiled as she brought the phone from her face but her smile faded when she remembered she doesn’t know his room so she can return the phone back to him
She sighed deeply and walked straight to her room thinking of what to do to pass time
She bounced on the bed to catch some sleep and luckily for her it worked

*****ZEDD’S MANSION*****
He sat down on his bed staring at Flower’s picture. He brought it close to his mouth and kissed her lips from the picture
He brought it down and he smiled sadly
“For how long will it take you to notice me?”. Zedd asked no one in particular
“Is he better than me? Or is there anything he has that I don’t? If it’s about the guitar he plays, I can learn it if that’s what will bring you closer to me”
“It’s hurt whenever you ignore me. It’s really hurts when you talk to others but you ignore me”. He said to the picture as he wiped the tears that fell on his cheek
Jove walked in but he didn’t bother to hide it because he knows and he is the only close friend that he has
“Still on this?”. He asked pointing at Flower’s picture
“Yes. It’s very difficult to get her out of my mind”. He said as tears fell from his eyes
“Never knew you can cry for a lady. That God i don’t have a crush”. Jove said sitting on his bed
“When you finally have one, you will know how it feels to be ignored by your crush”. Zedd said sitting up right
“Should I get a bowl then?”. Jove asked touching his earring
“For?”
“Your tears”. Jove replied sharply and Zedd smacked his head
“Get out of my room. You are not helping matter. Infact get out of my house!!”. Zedd yelled pushing him off the bed
“Mission accomplished”. Jove smirked as he stood up and walked to the mirror
He brushed his hair with Zedd’s brush, he winked and walked out bouncing stupidly
Zedd hissed and looked at her picture one more time. He sighed before walking to the bathroom to have a cold afternoon shower to clear his mind
