Carolyn was preparing for school the following day and Violet started checking out nice outfit for her.
“I really don’t care about all of these,” Carolyn said.
“But I care. I cared a lot about my looks,” Violet said, and Carolyn scoffed.
They both went out and met Charles in the dinning having breakfast.
“Off to school?” Charles asked, and they both looked at him.
“Yeah,” Carolyn replied.
“Carolyn, you’re yet to tell me what you saw in my future. We got a little distracted, but I’m not forgetful,” Charles said, and Violet looked at Carolyn.
“Yeah. You seem a little shocked when you checked it,” Violet said.
“Yes… that was because… I don’t think it worked. Everywhere went blank, I have never tried it before, I don’t think I can ever be good at it,” Carolyn said.
“I smell a lie when I hear one. But what reasons do you have to lie? I’m not that curious about my future either. I’m just curious about the people it’ll consist of. Have breakfast before you go. Vee was a big eater when she is in your body,” he winked, before excusing himself.
“Do we have time for breakfast?” Violet asked.
“I don’t have appetite in the morning. Let’s go,”
“Sure.Mr. Feng is waiting,” Violet said, and they both went to the parking lot.

Ivy stood by the hallway at school waiting for Carolyn when Jon joined her.
“Hi,” Jon waved, and she embraced him.
“Hi,” she muttered.
“I feel like you’ve been distant. Did I do anything wrong?” he asked, patting her hair.
“Of course not. I have just been all over the place lately,”
“With Carolyn?”
“Jon…” she grumbled, and released from the embrace.
“At least agree with me that she isn’t normal. Let’s not deny that,”
“Yeah, you’re right but I like her,”
“Ivy, I don’t want us to fight anymore, and I mean it. Once I set my mind to something I don’t back off until I succeed,”
“What are you getting at?”
“You. I don’t want to lose you, not because of Carolyn or anything else,” he said, and she smiled.
“Why’re you suddenly being so sweet?”
“Ivy… I’m not always a sweet guy, you know,”
“Yeah, you’re a j£rk too,” she said, and he chuckled.
“Let’s hang out later tonight. Wear something pretty, and let’s enjoy the night. I have something to tell you,”
“What?”
“You’re not beautifully dressed now,”
“What? You think I’m ugly?” she snapped, playfully.
“No. You’re always beautiful, but I want you to be extravagantly beautiful,” he whispered in her ear, and she chuckled.
“Jon, there you are!” they heard someone say from behind.
“Erm… Nic, wassup. Meet my girl, Ivy, Ivy, Nic. A friend,”
“I think I know you,” Ivy said.
“Everyone knows everyone, it’s a small world and a small school. It’s nice to meet you,”
“You were with Bryan,” Ivy said.
“Yeah. Do you know him?” Nic asked, and Ivy looked at Jon.
“What’s so urgent?” Jon asked.
“Your phone!”
“DND,”
“Gosh. You’ve to come with me. Sorry girl, I gonna steal your boyfriend,” Nic said.
“Ivy, I’ll call you,” Jon said, and hurried away.
“Wait… what’s so urgent?” Ivy grumbled.
“Ivy, sorry I’m late,” Carolyn/Violet said from behind.
“Sis, hi,”
“What happen? Having issues with Jon?”
“No. Something just feel off,”
“What’s it?”
“Nothing really,”
“Come on, Ivy. I know we weren’t close because of how busy I was, but now… there is nothing i can do in this body than listen to you,”
“It’s just Jon… his friend Nic, he is also friends with Bryan,”
“So how does that bother you?”
“Bryan is my ex-boyfriend, and I hate him. I don’t what to ever have anything to do with him,”
“Take a chill pill. Let’s go somewhere to talk,” Violet said, and they both went to a more private place to talk properly.
Violet paid attention as Ivy narrate her journey with Bryan and how she met Jon, the confrontation about Bryan and others.
“That guy is a real dlck! I never knew he was that worse before you broke up with him,” Violet shouted, and stood up.
“I know. That’s why I don’t ever want to have anything to do with him,”
“But Jon having a mutual friend with him isn’t bad,”
“That could only mean that Jon wasn’t completely honest with me. Nic was there that night when Bryan wanted me to strlp at that club, he was there and..” she cried, and Violet embraced her.
“Let’s open a truth circle,” Violet said, and Ivy looked at her.
“Truth circle?”
“You’ll demand the truth. Let’s go to him now before he can think of a lie,”
“Are you sure about this?”
“Let’s give it a shot. I’ll tell you all the questions you need to ask,”
“Ok,” she nodded, and they both left holding hands.
Ivy called Jon multiple times but it wasn’t at reach.
“His line is busy. Always on DND,” she grumbled, and Violet let out a sigh.
“Ivy, Jon is your boyfriend, right?” a girl asked, approaching them.
“Yeah. Who’re you?”
“I said it,” she said, and some other girls gasped.
“What do you know about him?” Violet asked.
“Don’t be too aggressive. But you got a good shot for someone from a broken family,” the girl teased, and Violet pulled her hair back.
“Arggh, you are hurting me,” the girl winched.
“Sis, stop this, let her go,”
“You better start talking, or I really pull out your hair and your eyeballs. You know what they call me, so don’t dare me,” Violet threatened, intimidating the girl.
“Nothing, nothing bad. It’s just that others don’t know that he is the heir to CNB news,” the girl said, and Violet released her.
“Gosh, this wltch is so scary,” the girl whined, and ran off.
“What’s she talking about?” Violet asked Ivy who was engrossed on her phone.
“He is Jon Chase, the only son of the chairman of CNB news, and Bryan’s best friend,”
“What are you talking about?” Violet asked.
“He lied to me, he said he doesn’t know Bryan, he said he… he lied to me, sis. Bryan always tell me about his best friend that is the heir to CNB news, he always indicates him as his brother and never mentioned his name. We don’t really talk much about his friends, but he is Jon. Jon is Bryan’s best friend,” she muttered in tears, and Violet embraced her.
“Someone’s boyfriend is in trouble,” Jayden said appearing to them.
“What happened?” Violet asked.
“Sis…” Ivy called.
“It’s Jayden, it seems like Jon has some problems,” Violet said.

Ivy and Violet arrived at the scene where Jon was being dragged by his father in company of Bryan.
“Let me go, dad!” Jon snapped, and freed himself.
“You, you really want to cause a scene, hun?”
“Uncle, I’ll bring him home, just go ahead,” Bryan said, and Mr. Chase slapped him.
“Get in the car now!” Mr. Chase shouted.
“Uncle, I-…”
“Stay out of it, Bryan,” Jon muttered.
👤”What the heck is going on?” students grumbled.
“Jon,” Ivy called, and he looked at her in guilt before entering his father’s car.
Bryan looked away the moment his gaze met Ivy’s and left with his other friends.
“I wonder what happened,” Violet said looking at Jayden.
“I wonder too,” Jayden muttered, and she scoffed.
“You don’t expect me to always have an answer to everything,” he added.
“I expect you to,” she whispered, and he chuckled.
Violet and Ivy went to a more discreet place, and Violet started thinking of the best way to console her sister.
“Ivy, he only lied about his friendship with Bryan, you can confront him for that,”
“He said his sister was a middle schooler, he said his parent’s marriage were failing, but it was all a lie. He is an only child, and his parent’s are doing just fine together. His father is an honorable man, I can’t believe he fo0led me the entire time,”
“It’s fine, Ivy. You can talk it out with him and hear him out,”
“Sis, I want to be alone right now,” Ivy said.
“You should let her be alone. She is in that phase,” Jayden said, and Violet nodded.

Charles was busy in his room and Jayden appeared, distracting him.
“You’ve been so busy lately,” Jayden said.
“Tomorrow is a big day,”
“A big boring day, I presume,”
“What do you want?”
“Just decide to check in on you after bringing Vee home,”
“She is back? Why did you brought her home? She can always call Mr. Feng,”
“Mine is faster and accident free,”
“Seriously…”
“I think you’re right,”
“About what? If you won’t be straightforward, don’t ever talk to me ever again,”
“About Vee’s parents. Ella might have a grudge against the Holts,”
“What summed up that assumption?”
“You can ask Vee to verify if it’s a mere assumption,”
“Stop calling her Vee!” he snapped, and Jayden chuckled before leaving.
“Gosh, always getting on my nerve,” he grumbled.

Charles went downstairs later and saw Carolyn eating.
“Vee…” he called, and Carolyn/Violet looked at him.
“Hi,”
“What are you doing? Why are you still in that body?”
“Carolyn has a small appetite. I should eat while I can,”
“How was school today?”
“Dramatic. With Ivy and her boyfriend,”
“He still doesn’t like you?”
“Not that. I don’t know how to accept that my sister had an ex who is bent on making her life miserable and somehow she ended up dating his best friend. I still see Ivy as a child, so this whole boyfriend issue; I have been trying to accept it until now. My little sister is having relationship issues,”
“I don’t know what to say,”
“Then don’t say anything. I’m done eating, I should leave this body,”
“Wait! Not so soon,”
“Why?”
“Oh, nothing. Errmm… yeah, I have something to ask about your family,”
“What’s it?”
“What’s your relationship with Ella’s family?”
“Oh, the Blake’s and the Holt’s?”
“Yes,”
“Why’re you asking?”
“Just. You know, just to know,”
“Ella and I weren’t only best friends, our parents were also business partners. They practically built their company together and were partners for years until the Blake’s company went bankrupt,”
“What part did your family played in their bankruptcy?”
“I don’t know the details, while growing up I always believed that my parents had a part to play in thier misfortunes. My parents broke the alliance with Blakes’ enterprise and they went bankrupt right after,”
“So, was it their fault?”
“Ella must have thought it was. She must’ve had this grudge against my family all these while. This is all my fault, Charles. I shouldn’t have let her into our house in the first place, she must’ve been pretending to be cool, she must’ve had this planned out. She might be the one behind my parents accident, she set me up with Maxwell, and now Ivy is suffering because of me. It’s all my fault, Charles, it’s all my fault,” she cried, and Charles embraced her, patting her back till she stopped crying.
He released from the embrace later staring directly at her.
“We’ll fix it, Vee, we’ll fix it,” he assured, his eyes fixed on hers.
He divert his gaze down to her lips and started fighting the urge to kiss her but he tried to control himself. He couldn’t held it down anymore, so he moved his lips down to hers, and kissed her.
