Chapter 20 - AM NOT GIVING UP

RODRIGUEZ RESIDENT

( sitted on it's same position where he could see the garden below, his eyes fixed on the scene when a presence settled beside him didn't bother acknowledging who as silence ensue for a while)

McKenzie: ( stare at the figure of her brother for a while and sigh) you don't seem glad with Ashley around

Angie: ( his silvery eye met with his sister emerald one rest his cheek on his hand) that's because she keeps taking the shit seriously and someone seem in support

McKenzie: what, what if i am, she is a good girl and have always been into you since ages and i ain't the main deal here Mom and Dad also support this.

Angie: psst

McKenzie: hey can't you just tharw that ice like heart of yours and give this a chance, i know this all revolve about that said person but even Rex move on, well even though he keep changing girls like skirt

Angie: ( Arch the invisible headache building up) That's his choice and this isn't about not trying to let her in Kenzie, the fact is i don't like her obviously not that way, i keep repeating that but you all think am bluffing or something, she is a friend and that's all to it and i keep repeating to her, but she keep acting oblivious or she already know but don't want to say to it and keep disturbing me on the matter, i don't want her getting hurt at least that is what i can do as a friend

McKenzie: you.... you really don't

Angie: what, disappointed

McKenzie: what exactly is your ideal type Angie

Angie: you

McKenzie: That is not funny, you just made my heart skip, i swear if you ain't been my brother, i would have ( unclench her fist) nevermind, am being serious

Angie: ( only shrugg when a face flash into his memory making a breathtaking smile crept his face)

McKenzie: Got you, who is that, who are you thinking of making you smile like that

Angie: I smiled, well i just....

McKenzie: you are trailing off to

Angie: ( getting frustrated) it's hazel okay and i ain't smiling cus of her, i just remembered something funny

McKenzie: Hazel Markin, seriously she is your ideal type!

Angie: I never said that!

McKenzie: it's not until..... wait ( As if remembering something, her face brighten suddenly, eye twinkling seeming weird to Angie) you know big bro, you choose well, i support that

Angie: what exactly are you supporting

McKenzie: you and hazel of course, don't worry i will talk things out with Ashley and make her understand, you go on with your choice

Angie: seriously seems you are misquoting something here, i didn't say i like hazel either, i just think back to how she acted today, weird

McKenzie: weird how

Angie: like feeling down i mean

McKenzie: down..... what did you do to her, you insulted her again!

Angie: I didn't do anything okay and.... ( mind trail to when he heard her muttered a curse word " bitch") or i was just mistaken ( wondered out with McKenzie watching him keenly)

PINEWOOD COLLEGE

Angie: ( entered the school but unlucky for him meet who he least expected to see right now insisting she will walk him in to his class)

Ashley: hubby, i handmade cookies today, want to have some of it, you've always love my handmade cookies ( All smile while holding unto his arm)

Angie: No, thank you and it's Angie ( taking his arm off her hold) And think we need to talk

Ashley: Am all ears, about what?

Angie: About this, us, you taking this whole engagement thing serious but it's not, i can talk it out with my parents and I've always said i don't like you, not that way and am being serious

Ashley: ( halt on her step turn facing him looked straight at him) I know, but i do

Angie: Ashley ( getting frustrated doesn't know how else to talk some senses into her)

Ashley: I know you don't love me but i do and i don't give up on what i want easily, i will make this work (serious, looking straight at him not in anyway joking when the door opening caught their attention not concious they are outside Angie classroom already seeing hazel who opened the door)

Hazel: ( The class hasn't started yet, it's still the period of sport and she was wondering why Angie isn't in yet before hearing the conversation as her ears picked one or two things they said, eyes met with Ashley's before meeting Angie's as a smirk crept her face then stroll closer put her arm round him) why are you just coming, i was waiting ( noticing Ashley stare on her but didn't mind only hold him in place knowingly rubbing her head on his chest inhaling his natural scent she love so much and gosh could feel the warmth of the body within, the imagination of him being shirtless cloud her mine, how she is going to run her hand over his perfect body, gosh, shook her head at her naughty thoughts hold him tightly) just what am going to do to you Angie ( bite on her lips naughtily in thought)

Ashley: ( eying her with her arm round him and a dangerous glint pass through her eyes, for some reason she loathe seeing this as she glare at the girl in his arm but before she could say anything felt a hand tug her)

McKenzie: ( seeing the position of hazel and her brother watch with an amusement she did her best to hide and with hazel not showing the sign of leaving him took who she is here for) Ashley, we need to talk, come ( was able to take her along after some minutes who still has her eyes on them)

Ashley: ( calm down and switch to her innocent self once Kenzie let go both in a quiet hallway) what did you want to talk about

McKenzie: ( sigh) it's about you and Angie

Ashley: I know, am working on it

McKenzie: No, not that, ( look straight into her eyes) I want you to let go of him

Ashley: ( look straight at her incredulously) Are you being...

McKenzie: Am serious

Ashley: even you..... gosh, this is ridiculous ( chuckle dryly) let go, have been in love with him since years, since ages!! ( snap out unconsciously) you know what, am sorry for yelling but it's not possible

McKenzie: ( understood and felt bad for her, she is a good girl and will want her with her brother but this is her brother decision and doesn't want to let her get hurt to) it's possible if you allow it Ash, I know you love Angie so much but he was obvious of his feeling towards you, he doesn't like you that way, you are beautiful Ashley and they are several guys out there who will want you he just don't want you getting hurt either am i

Ashley: I perfectly know that, he is serious about not wanting me but i ain't giving up!

McKenzie: Ashley! ( couldn't help but force her frustration out)

Ashley: So far i see no girl or him being interested in anyone then am not giving up to ( made her vindict head to their class first)

McKenzie: ( stare at her retreating back and sigh) Did we make a mistake by been supportive before
