I Choose You by Kemi Adejumo (mobile ebook reader TXT) 📖

"This is not your fight Andy,  so stay out of it " Erica said coming too close to Andy.  

"Oh yeah... What are you going to do" Andy challenged. It was already getting heated and I just want to avoid drama so I quickly stopped Andy. 

"Let's just go Andy and ignore her" I said dragging Andy away into my designated room. In the servant quarter, each room has two beds so it's two persons to one room and I am so glad that Andy kept the second bed in the room for me. 

"I do not want to talk about her right now.. I just want to take a bath, dress up,  quickly go see my parents and come back early . I need to get a goodnight sleep so I can wake up early tomorrow and begin work with a smile on my face" I said determined while pulling off my clothes and taking out my towels from my luggage  .

"Ughh don't remind me that we have to wake up by 5am tomorrow "She said.  I just rolled my eyes at her and made my way to the bathroom. On getting to the bathroom , my phone began ringing. I came back and took it out of my bag . It was Christian and he was video calling me.  Seeing his name on the the screen made me really happy.  I am not even settled in and he is already calling.  I picked the call and the faces of my four friends popped up on the screen.  

"Hey guys" I said smiling widely at the screen. 

"Hey!!!" they all answered 

"Wait... You are already at the palace and you couldn't call?" Christian demanded slightly frowning. 

"Yeah Jess, if not for us,  your boyfriend here was ready to call you every ten minutes to confirm if you had gotten to the palace " Jake said jokingly making me blush because he called Christian my boyfriend .

"Shut up Jake" taunted Christian.

"C'mon guys I am sure Jessica just got home and she just wants to settle in before calling us" Luke defended me making me nod agreeing with what he said. I peeked at Andy and caught her secretly blushing after she heard Luke's voice.  Yeah she really likes him. 

"I just want to end school already jess, I am beginning to miss you plus I can't handle this boys alone " complained Molly. 

"Don't worry babe I won't be much of a trouble and I will help you handle this boys while Jess is gone" Jake said lovingly while wrapping his hands around around her waist. 

"OK baby " Molly replied leaning into him. Uhh , they are so cute. 

"Ok guys I have to go now,  I will be seeing my parents soon and I want to get back early " I said in a hurry. 

"OK ,tell Mama Lohan we said hi" Christian said. 

"I will "I answered "OK bye guys"

"Bye" They all answered 

"Take care of yourself "Christian said before hanging up.  As soon as I dropped my phone,  I ran into the bathroom ,had my bath ,  wore my clothes and left for my parents house. 

After my Dad retired, he bought a nice conducive house in a secured area. The area in not the richest area but it's safe and really nice. I saw my parents and I am glad  they are fine and healthy.  My Mom's health is better and she's really enjoying her retirement. We had dinner and talked about anything and everything. I left for the palace happily.  It's was dark when I returned to the palace. Andy was already asleep when I got to the room.  I had a quick bath,  wore my nighties and went to bed. I said a short prayer to God to guide me through this new chapter of  my life and then I fell asleep.
