Chapter 164
“Hey brother” Jessica walked into Ethan’s room while he was blow-drying his hair.
“Little Sis” Ethan said, handing the dryer to her to help him continue with it.Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
She collected it and stood behind him and then continued from where he stopped.
Ethan stared at her happy face in the mirror and smiled.
“What’s with the glow on your face recently?” He asked.
“Well…” Jessica smiled shyly.
“Hmm… are you up to something nasty?” Ethan teased.
“No, well.. you know Ryan.. you met with him when you were at Arusha’s apartment” Jessica said.
“Ohh.. yeah, the smart guy” Ethan said.
“I’m dating him” Jessica said without hesitating.
“Uh.. ohh” Ethan nodded and smiled.
“Do you like him?” He asked.
“So much” Jessica’s face was beaming with love.
“He’s a good guy.. from the little i know about him, he’s smart, good looking and ambitious. Good for you” Ethan winked and gave her thumb up.
Jessica grinned.
“But.. i don’t want you both doing things you’re not meant to do okay?” Ethan said, sounding a bit stern.
Jessica nodded.. “Trust me brother, i won’t do such”
“I trust you Jessy” Ethan smiled.
“Geez! I still can’t believe that’s the reason you’re glowing happily. You’re a nasty girl, aren’t you” Ethan dragged her nose playfully and they both laughed.

Irish laughed hard at the joke Arusha just cracked.
She was on a video call with him and Mrs Helen.
And Arusha has been making her laugh all along.
She really missed him and can’t wait to see him again.
“When are you coming home?” Arusha asked with a frown.
“Soon, Arusha.
“That’s what you keep saying, i don’t like the fact that you’re in that house, he’s a dangerous man and you’re not safe.” Mrs Helen expressed worriedly.
“I’ll be fine Mum and I’ll be home soon” Irish assured them.
They sighed.
“Irish, you know i like Olivia right?” Arusha asked.
“Of course, I’m glad you finally admitted it” Irish smiled.
“I’m waiting to make sure you’re back safe in the house before… asking her out because i don’t think I’ll want to continue with the relationship if anything happens to you and she’ll be hurt, ireally like her Irish and it seems she likes me too, i don’t want to wait anymore, i don’t want toloose her to anyone” Arusha said and both Irish and Mrs Helen could tell he was serious. Irish felt bad to have being the one delaying him.
“Arusha, I’m so sorry, i promise to be back home soon and safe. Trust me Arusha.. I’ll be back home soon” Irish said.
“Okay Sis, i know you’ll be back soon, I’m only worried about your safety in that house” Arusha said.
“I have people protecting me” Irish whispered, only to their ears.
“Really?” Mrs Helen and Arusha asked in unison, and they looked relieved when Irish nodded.
“Now, I’m relieved” Arusha sighed.
“Nevertheless, we want you back home soon” Mrs Helen said.
“Okay ma'” Irish saluted and they laughed.
“Irish, you won’t believe Arusha keeps downing your strawberry juice everyday” Mrs Helen said. “Geez! I’m so going to kill you!” Irish said and felt like dragging his ears from the screen. Arusha pouted and hid behind Mrs Helen, who was laughing.
“Hey Irish” Irish heard and turned to see Morgan, standing behind her.
She’s a bit pissed he hadn’t knocked before coming in but she didn’t question him about it anyway, it’s his house.
“Hey” She said to him.
“Isn’t that your Mum and brother? Can i speak to them?” Morgan smiled .
“Ohh.. yeah” Irish turned back to her phone and noticed they had disconnected the call.
___
“I can’t ever talk to that wench!” Mrs Helen hissed.
“Same here” Arusha groaned.
___
“Ohh.. yeah” Irish turned back to her phone and noticed they had disconnected the call.
She turned to Morgan, embarrassed.
“I guess they thought you were here to see me for something important and they didn’t want to interrupt” Irish quickly said.
“Ohh.. i thought they disconnected it because they do not want to talk to me. How about we go to your house to say hi to them after our date? Morgan suggestion
“A date?” Irish asked Surprised.
“Yeah.. you know, a hangout.. the both of us, I planned to surprise you with it in two days time. Guess I already said it” Morgan said.
He really wanted Irish’s family to love him like they love Ethan
“Oh.. Okay” Irish smiled, knowing if her plan works out, Morgan would be going to jail right from the restaurant.
Ah! He’s just making her plan easier.
“Do you want anything?” Irish asked.
“No, just wanna spend some time with you.” Morgan sat beside her and made her rest her head on his shoulder.
“I know you’re uncool about what Catherine said, I’m sorry about that”Morgan said.
“It’s fine seriously. I’ve learned not to take Catherine’s words to heart” Irish smiled.
“You’re just so different from other women I’ve spent time with. You’re special” Morgan said and Irish smiled.
“You’re actually the first man to trust me this much and make me feel so loved. I’m so glad to have made the right choice” Irish said, smoothening his hair.
