Chapter 18 - AN UNWANTED PRESENCE

Angie: ( in his position where his arm was wrap around her shoulder region) Kenzie said you were worried about me, thank you

Hazel: That..... ( couldn't make a tail or head of what she is about to say covered the hand holding her, in a swift switching position holding him in place on the wall meeting with his confused expression) you do that again, am really going to make you mine ( stated with a glint of seriousness)

Angie: ( confused or perhaps she was angry with what he did, but he just did that out of reflex he do that to McKenzie whenever he wants to apologize or thank her) I just.... ( stated, look straight at her serious eyes but the door opening interrupted her statement seeing her let go immediately as if she was a child caught doing something wrong wanting to chuckle but coming in face with whom just entered was taken aback) Ashley, what are you....

Ashley: ( An extremely beautiful lady, with her sexy body and proclaim skin, her long wavy black hair plaited at the side which was parked into a pigtail, tempting seductive rosy lips which was flashing a white teeth at Angie) hubbbbby, tssk, is that what you are supposed to say Tssh ( hug him immediately) I miss you ( rubbing her head on his chest with a smile) And to your question ( facing him but her arms still round him) Am here to stay permanently so, we can now be together and as am now of age, we can now proceed with the engagement

Hazel: engagement? ( muttered eying the two feeling the arch of uneasiness in her heart seeing the sudden new girl and Angie seem comfortable with that and that just mean one thing, she isn't a stranger)

Angie: ( developing an invisible headache) I didn't agree to that

Ashley: you know you got no choice, your parents waant me, i want you, so officially you are mine Angie ( said in a serious tone before flashing a smile)

Angie: Hands off me Ashley

Ashley: sure ( took her arms off coming to face hazel flash her a smile) hi am Ashley, i will be learning here from now on, you take good care of me ( heard Angie scoff behind her flash him a glare)

Hazel: ( Trying to process what was going on before, didn't expect her to actually greet her warmly and not sneer like the rest, she doesn't look like a pretentious one either, she seems like the carefree one but still something in her doesn't 100% like her, not the feeling of hatred but the feeling of seeing her as a third wheel but of what exactly?!)

Ashley: And to add to the introduction, i am this guy fiancee

Hazel: ( hearing the declaration felt a throb in her heart almost losing her footing in her mind but her thoughts was interrupted by a voice)

Angie: you ain't in any way my fiancee

Ashley: of course we haven't been offical yet but we will soon, don't forget i have your parents support

Hazel: ( not wanting to hear their bickering which sounds like lover quarrel in her mind and the fact that she and Angie never playfully argue around like this before nor had she ever hug him felt wronged as she bite hard on her lips watching them) is she truly.... ( fight back the pain as her voice echoed) Am hazel

Ashley: Hazel, nice to meet you

Hazel: Mmmm ( head to her seat immediately)

Angie: ( eyes tail her to her seat before looking back at the girl) get off me Ash, go to your sector, you will see Kenzie there

Ashley: really, my bestie!!! ( left him immediately to dash out but came back again tiptoe and peck him immediately on his cheek) bye, bye ( wink and dash out immediately)

Hazel: ( only stare at the situation bitting hard on her lips " she peck him, peck him" in thought rubbing her palm together aggressively felt his presence beside her but didn't look up at him)

Angie: ( noticing her unrecognised behaviour) what is wrong, hazel

Hazel: don't talk to me ( muttered, didn't even know notice her voice because she just felt them breaking, is she going to cry)

Angie: what... (interrupted by the students entering and throughout the lecturing she didn't bring up her head and when the lecturer made to gesture to her he couldn't help but make an excuse for her)

LUNCH BREAK

Hazel: ( still in her position, for some reason the lecturer didn't bother minding her till the end of the class but she didn't mind that cus she isn't in the mood herself, afraid the stinging of her eyes will be a pool of tears afterward and she would cry but now knowing it's lunch break brace herself to ask away bringing her head up finally)

Angie: ( seeing her couldn't pinpoint the expression she is emitting made to ask what was wrong when someone just called him and from it's tone, know who, could only develop an invisible headache)

Hazel: Bitch ( blurt out as her confidence drop again watching)

Ashley: hey hubby, i came here first hearing the bell ring, let's go have lunch together!! ( seeing her talk caught the attention of several there but didn't care seeing a certain face wave, didn't care of how he ignored her) Rex!, nevermind anyway c'mon ( took his arm to get up)
