Whitney stop crying because of that stupid girl.

Why did God created me poor? Maybe you want to ask him not me.

Is because I am poor that is why Greg slapped me.

Greg, slapped you? Cathy coughed.

Are you alright? Whitney asked her but she didn't reply, she held her chest in pain, she gasped for air..

Cathy! Cathy!

The pain is much her breath is no longer stable, Whitney tears drop, she run into the living room.

Somebody! Anybody! Please help me.

The building is soundproof, so no one heard, she run back to Cathy.

Cathy!

Cathy! Is like she is drowning, she run back, in tears, this time Gregory is coming down, she rush to him.

Please, I beg you save Cathy.

Shit! Her first attack. He run into the room, Cathy is almost lifeless on the floor. Off the air-condition, open the wind and on the room heater not too high.

Whitney just do as she is told, he give her mouth to mouth oxygen, press her chest slightly, all of a sudden, Cathy sneeze.

Cathy!

Yes

Her voice is very low, she is still not conscious but she is stable

She is fine now.

Are you sure? Yes, she is okay. Gregory tap her shoulder, he wanted to leave, Whitney hugged him.

Don't leave me, I am scared, I don't want anything to happen to my sister.

Cathy is not her sister but the two bond like they were one, Cathy treated her as one, so it's only natural that she do same

I can't go on without Cathy, she is my friend, my sister, my protector, she is my adviser and my peace of mind.

Relax, she will be fine. He give her milk. Nothing will happen to her, so relaxed.

What is wrong with her? Did the doctor not tell you?

He looks at Whitney, her heart will break more if she finds out that she is the cause of the problem

No, the doctor only said she might be reacting to some new things because she was in comatose for some time

I hope so.

Tony rush into the room because Gregory texted him.

Beans pie, are you fine?

I am fine, I just don't know what is wrong with me.

Gregory close his eyes, he knows what is wrong with her, her voice is really low

Don't worry, you will be fine, beans pie.

I go to my room. Gregory tell Whitney. Alright, go on.

Thanks the boss'boss.

It's fine, she is my friend too. He walked away.

Water! I need water.

Whitney want to get her cold water.

No, go get her warm water from the kitchen.

Whitney nodded leaving the two together, Jane meet Gregory at the living room.

Baby, you are here? She kiss his neck. Stop it Jane, you are embarrassing me

Really? We do a whole lot of intimacy back then.

That was then, I don't love you Jane and you know it, you too don't love me, so stop it, what happened to the boy you said you love?

Gregory, it's you, I love.

Jane stop telling lies, you know it was only an agreement between the two of us for our parents to stay off our back

Gregory, I want you now. She kissed him passionately, he also lost his guard, he kissed her back.

Whitney! Whitney!

Whitney who is coming into the living room, heard her name between Gregory and Jane kiss, she sighed and Walk back.

Gregory, you are sleeping with her? Gregory close his eyes. It's obvious, I give you two weeks, I will be back and if you don't start thinking straight, I will tell my dad and you know what it means.

She dart upstairs, she get her stuff that night, Whitney enter the room in anger.

Where is the water? Sorry, I couldn't get it. Is there no water in the water heater? Tony asked.

I don't know. Cathy sense she is mad.

Don't worry, I will take from the bathroom. No beans pie, I will go get it myself. Tony walk to the living room, Craig hurry in, Jane is already done

You are leaving this night? Gregory asked her.

Don't act like you care, two weeks and you will hear from my dad.

She pushed her way out, Craig rush to Gregory

Boss, how is she? She is fine now but really weak.

Shit! He curse under his breath.

I told you we should tell her so she can be able to care for herself.

The doctor told them that she is asthmatic but Craig said they should not let her know so she doesn't pathetic.

No, it will only create fear in her, I want to see her.

No, Tony is in there.

Oh! He sighed badly. Boss, is there a way you could change Cathy room from Whitney, so I can go to her in the night?

Craig!

Stop calling me, I know she has a boyfriend, I just want to be able to go to her in the night without disturb, I want to check on her when she is asleep

Fine, I don't think Whitney, will agree but I will try.

I know I can count on you. He hit Gregory shoulder, Tony is in the dark, he heard their conversation.

Idiot! She is mind now. He goes back without the water.

Where is the water? Beans pie, just drink from the washroom and please be very careful

Okay, are you alright? She sense that Tony is sad.

I am fine, go to bed, I will discuss something with you tomorrow

What is it?

Is nothing serious

Okay, I will wait then

She want to kiss him but he withdrew. You don't love me? Do you think I have a contagious disease?

Tony close his eyes.

No, I am just tired.

He peck her

We will. Cathy reply, he kissed her forehead and left.

I don't think Tony love me.

Shut up, he does, maybe he is just sad. Whitney sigh bitterly

Madam, why are you also pissed up?

Can you imagine, I am the center of their intimacy.

I don't get you?

Greg, is kissing Jane and calling my name. Cathy laughed. What is funny?

You really don't have anything in that head of yours.

What do you mean?

Nothing, I am hungry, I will go make noodles.

Cathy, it's late and Tony said you should not go out.

But I am hungry, are you coming?

No, I don't want to see his annoying face. Cathy chuckled.

Just wait for me, don't freaking sleep. I will wait.

Cathy walk to the kitchen, she wants to prepare noodles, she opened the freezer to get ingredients, she sees an ice cream container

Who will put this in a kitchen freezer? She opened it to lick.

No, don't lick that. The bowl almost fall from her hand, Craig grab it. Do you want to eat?

What are you doing here? Sorry, it's your house. She turned to leave, Craig grab her waist, her heart skip.

I thought you want to eat?

I changed my mind, I will let it pass.

How is your health? That was the first time he asked about his health since she returns from hospital

Her eyes widen in shock.

You should close then, they are too big like puppy eyes.

She opened her mouth.

Close your mouth before I close it with my mind. She raised her hands and cover her mouth while her eyes shut.

Craig wants to see them, he missed this closeness between them, she in his hands and their chest almost touching each other.

He pressed her waist slightly, she jerk

Craig, stop doing that to me.

What am I doing to you? His breath is on her neck.

Craig stop it, I feel...

Beans pie!

Craig free her, she hurry to Tony.

Is not what you think, I only...

Did I not asked you not to come out? Tony voice is cold, he grabbed her hand, Craig walked passed him and whisper to him.

Don't hit her, you understand. Tony didn't listen, he dragged her to his room and pushed her to the bed.

I am sorry, I didn't know he is there, I only wanted to eat, please don't hurt me.

Her tears drop, he felt bad, he walked to her.

I am not going to hurt you, I just don't want to see him around you.

Alright, I will not do that again.

Fine, you said you want to eat? She nodded. Let me get the chef or Molly to get you what to eat.

No, I just want to make the noodles myself, I don't enjoy the meal, they are all too foreign.

Okay, I go with you.

Craig was waiting for Cathy, when he saw the two coming down, Cathy wasn't crying so he left for his room, Cathy was cooking while Tony watch her, he doesn't know how to do house chores, she finished eating after preparing it.

Beans pie! Do you love me?

Of cause, I only want to finish my exam before telling George, I promise not to get involved in any relationship but as soon as...

I want you to leave this place.

What?

Yes, if you love me, you will agree to leave.

But Whitney, I don't want to leave her, she might get hurt by Jane.

Beans pie, you don't love me.

Not that, I am just scared for Whitney, fine should Whitney come with me.

No, Brian might not like to stay far from his girl.

Tony!

Cathy, go to bed, we talk tomorrow and pack your stuff.

Tony...

He didn't let her say a word, he left her alone, when she enter the room, she is all sad.

What happened? You have been gone for so long

I cook and I ate at the kitchen.

Oh, you should sleep now.

Tony said I should leave this place.

What? You want to leave me here?

No, I told him I can't leave you here, he said I don't love him.

Whitney sighed bitterly.

Go with him, I will be fine.

I don't want Jane to bully you.

Don't worry, I will tell Brian to rent an apartment for me.

No, I might not be at peace if you are not here with Gregory.

Fine, I will stay with him, don't feel bad, I could always come visit you there.

I wish I don't have to leave you here.

But why did Tony want you to leave?

he saw me with Craig.

What is wrong with you Cathy?

Slow down, I didn't go to him, I was just at the kitchen when he came to me.

Oh no, I told you to avoid him now you have to leave because of him

It's okay then, let's just sleep.
