(Book Two)
"I've been looking for you for two years now. Luckily for me, I saw you at the beach party which a friend hosted. It also broke my heart when I decided to follow you home, and saw the hardship life you were living."
"In a nutshell," I wa...
"Um," Jubilee stopped to think. "I know I'll be having a lost fight going after you."
"You'll be having a lost fight," I smiled triumphantly. "That's it!"
I dragged a confused Jubilee, if that was even possible, until we finally left the classroom. I had texted Judith and Jeremiah to meet up at the love garden. I knew Jeremiah would transfer the information to Dami, since I didn't have his number on my phone.
Jubilee and I waited for the gang to arrive. I knew he was beyond confuse, but so was I. My brain had just gotten a theory and I needed to share it with the others.
Dami and Jeremiah took their time as they walked side by side towards our destination. They made it seemed like I hadn't called in an emergency meeting four minutes ago.
Judith on the other hand could be seen running pretty well. She sprinted passed Jeremiah and Dami, then sat inbetween Jubilee and I once she got to us. I knew what she did there, she didn't want Jubilee anywhere close to me cause she was a Jeremiah shipper.
Dami and Jeremiah finally got to us. Jeremiah sat at my other side, while Dami sat beside him.
"What's this inner circle meeting all about?" Jeremiah asked with lack of interest. He wasn't even trying to find our meeting useful. Dami on the other hand was trying. At least, Dami was pretending to be interested.
I sat upright and spread my arms dramatically. "I think I might have come up with a lead." That automatically picked Jeremiah's interest. "The person doing this knows he or she wouldn't be having a lost fight going after me, well T."
"What do you mean by that?" Judith asked confusingly.
"Who would threating T, without having a lost fight?" I asked rhetorically. Jeremiah arched his right brow, Dami shrugged nonchalantly, Jubilee shook his head and Judith groaned feeling tired. "Happiness."
"Okay I'm out," Dami stood up and was about leaving, but Jeremiah stopped him with his hands. "What? She has suddenly gone crazy."
"Let's just hear her out," Jeremiah muttered. Dami sat back down and Jeremiah moved his gaze towards me.
"Happiness is the only person that would want to harm T, without loosing anything." I said to them.
"That would be an excellent theory if only Happiness, wasn't dead!" Dami yelled at me, I flinched a bit cause I hadn't heard him yell before. He saw my reaction, then cursed himself for acting that way. "Sorry, I just have a lot of things going on right now. You know, like the Senior Pride coming up pretty soon. I haven't come up with a team yet or how to get the event ready on time. The social prefect and their assistants can't do it all."
"It's alright," I reassured him, while Jeremiah patted his back. I decided to go back to Dami's first question. "But what if she isn't dead?"
"That's stupid," Jeremiah pushed my theory right under the bus with no mercy.
"But what if it isn't?" I still tried to maintain my stand. "People at the ghetto thinks I'm dead. But look at me," I gestured to myself, "I'm not."
"They saw your outfit get stained," Jeremiah pointed out.
"But____"
"And Happiness throat was slit opened. Her whole body was cold and lifeless." Jeremiah interrupted me.
I kept quiet for a bit as I processed his words. "You have a point," I admitted. "But I do believe that Happiness might be alive targeting Tatiana, which is now me."
I inhaled and exhaled a few times, then summoned the courage to hold Jeremiah's hands. "Can you just let me prove it?"
Jeremiah stared at our connected hands as if studying it for a sec, before looking at me. "Just be careful."
I nodded and smiled at him. "Maybe tomorrow___"
"We can't tomorrow," Jeremiah cut me off.
"Why?" I asked with furrowed brows. I thought everyday was meant to uncover this situation.
"Cause," Jeremiah let go of my hands, leaned back a bit and gaze at Dami. "Dami and I are going to pay your adoptive parents some visit."
