Chapter 41: Chapter 41

“What did you say?” I broke the hug and looked at her in shock.

“It’s true. I hate them but I did nothing to them till now. But both of them killed me with a powerful stake, took my watch and crystal. That’s the last thing I saw before I died, I guess.” I should have suspected Cassie and Bianca. I know about Cassie. But Bianca, Jacen’s ex-girlfriend, is the same as Cassie. Cassie already tried to kill me in the maze and now she did kill my friend. What’s wrong with that, Psycho?

“How am I alive now?” Leona asked no one in particular. Everyone ignored her question because one thought distracted all. Cassie and Bianca.

“I never know Bianca can do something awful like this. She’s totally changed.” Jacen said, running a hand through his hair.

“Iam back. Leona will be transferred in a week.” Kassidy came inside without knocking on the door.

“What?” she yelled again, standing close to me.

“No, I mean, this is not the right time. We can talk about this later, Leona,” Kassidy tried to manage, but Leona didn’t scream or shouted but just cried. She won’t have a single clue what’s going on here.

“I think you should all leave her. I will call you when I need any help,” Kassidy said. Kassidy is not a friend, and Leona can’t stay here alone with her. She needs us.

“No... she can’t...” I started.

“Please Sydney. I can manage this situation. You need to go,” she smoothly talked to me and we are all out. Standing in the corridor again. Leona didn’t want us to go, but I hope Kassidy explain everything. Iam going to miss her. She will be transferred in the middle of the year. Those bitches going to pay for this.

....

“Today’s the worst day ever,” I said, sitting on the couch while Amelia was lying on the bed and ready to sleep.

“Much more than worse.”

“We need to confront Cassie and Bianca. They need to get punished. I don’t care whether Cassie is a princess.” Of course, Cassie is not a princess. Sapphire is the princess who ended up dead. But Iam the only one who knows it.

“Amelia,” I called her again, and she’s already slept. Fine. Now maybe I could see Jacen and Noah talking about the secrets we exposed in the game. It’s all because of the stupid two-headed woman.

I knocked on their door, and Noah opened it. Jacen sat on the couch, staring blankly at the floor.

“Come in,” Noah said, making me away.

“Hey, baby,” Jacen simply said and motioned me to sit next to him.

“Are you relaxed?” he asked, kissing my cheek while Noah is looking uncomfortable.

“A little. Actually, your secret doesn’t shock me since you already told me about it. I got this opportunity because of you,” I started. It’s better to talk about this and get over it. Iam ready to tell them about the Queen’s Diary too. Once revealed, can’t be hidden again.

“I don’t want to leave you there alone. I mean, I want you to be with me. Finally, I got my wish. I guess it’s not a big deal to write a letter,”

“No, it’s not,” I nodded, waiting for him to ask about Victoria’s diary.

“The big deal is...” he trailed off, looking at Noah.

“My brother doesn’t tell me how he feels about you.”

“Well, I did. So, what’s the matter. I didn’t kiss or make out with Sydney without your presence. Did I do that?” Noah raised his voice while Jacen was talking calmly.

“Ooh, I think you have an idea of doing that, too. Actually, I don’t want to argue with you. If you ever have that thought again, just forget it. Iam not going to talk about this,” Jacen said.

“Fine. But I think she’s better off without you. Who knows when will you two broke up just like it happened with you and Bianca,” these words hurts me. Noah shouldn’t have brought up the name ‘Bianca’.

“Bianca is nothing compared to Sydney. Don’t talk about things which you don’t know,” Jacen shouted.

“Do you think I don’t know about you? Iam your brother and I know you well. Sydney doesn’t know that you are a liar,”

“What are you talking about? You are making up some fake things about me because you are jealous,” Okay. This is going to be a fight. I want peace.

“Please, stop it. Get over this topic. Don’t you want to know about the Queen’s diary I stole? I will be confessing it by myself if you are ready to hear it.” I stood up and both become silent after I mentioned the secret I kept.

“I want to know that. I have no clue how you stole it or what’s in it,” Noah asked, like he’s really interested. But I can see, both are not much interested at all. Right now. But anyway, I said it all and then they forgot about the entire argument which went before a few minutes.

“Why are you involved in these personal issues, baby?” That’s the first question Jacen asked.

“I don’t know. I was curious, I guess.” I said, but to tell the truth, something inside me make me do it. Stressed me to read it. I felt the pain of the Queen whenever I read it. I felt like I was really there.

Someone knocked on the door before Noah could say ‘Iam crazy for stealing it.

“We need you down in Dorothy’s room now. That stupid Bianca is calling you,” Issac told Jacen. Why she is calling him? Did someone confront both of them? I can finally be happy.

“Seriously, I don’t want to see her,” Jacen said with a disgusting look.

“It’s not the right time to argue. Just come with me.” Issac grabbed his arms and urged him.

“Go, Jacen. Tell me what happened,” I told him as he nodded, having an angry look on his face. He wants no more trouble.

“Hey, are you alright now? I mean you got injured...” I asked Issac before they left.

“Yeah. Iam. Thanks for your concern,” Issac immediately said and left.

“Now it’s two of us now. I don’t want to bring that topic again. But you are not angry with me, right?” Noah asked, with hesitation. He didn’t even look into my eyes.

“Why should I be?”

“I compared you with Bianca and tried to make a terrible impression on my brother. What if you avoided me and don’t want to be a friend to me?” he asked this, which I never thought of. Iam still angry at him for talking about Bianca. But I can’t avoid him for this silly argument, right? Can I?
