Average Boy – Episode 40
Chapter 40
(Final/Epilogue)
Tori Vega’s POV
I showered and wore a green short dress
I wore green slippers and strolled down the stairs
Jade and the kids had gone out. I was the only one left, with Trina actually
I went to the kitchen and met her cooking dinner with the chefs
Me: hey sis… What’s cooking?
Trina: it’s an Italian dish
I took in the sweet savor and smiled. One thing Trina is good at is cooking. No wonder Seth fell for her. He loves good food
Me: how’s the kicking? Still much?
Trina: hahahaha… Not yet Tori
Me: yeah yeah… Mine started at two months
Trina: that’s because Benedict is so stubborn
I chuckled
Trina is three months pregnant for her husband, Seth. They got married a year ago. Seth is a journalist and they met in a radio station. I wonder what Trina was doing there
Me: I’ll go get fresh air outside
Trina: all right then. I’ll alert you when dinner’s ready
Me: thanks
I walked outside and sat on the bonnet of my dad’s new Ferrari. He too is spending the night here and I think he’s taking a nap upstairs
I looked through my phone and looked up when a car drove in. That’s Andre’s car
He got down with Beck and they moved towards me
Beck: hey
Me:hey

He pecked my cheek
Me: where from?
Andre: hey Tori
Me: hey Andre
Andre: is Jade in?
Me: nope, she went bowling with Tessa and Benedict
Andre: okay… I’ll see you guys tomorrow. I’m still in LA for now
Me: that’s all right
He tapped Beck
Andre: I’ll see you tomorrow buddy
Beck: be careful… You’re the only one Jade says I love you to. We wanna keep hearing that from her
We laughed
Andre: I’ll be careful. Bye guys
He waved and left in his car
Beck faced me
Beck: can I kiss you? Here?
Me: of course
Beck: not a short kiss Tori
I could see the desperation in his eyes.
Wait… Does he mean the…?
Beck: hahaha… Bad girl… Look at your eyes. They darkened
I pouted
Yeah he got me
Beck: Tori
He held my hands
Me: what?
Beck: do me a favor
Me: what is it?
He squeezed my hands
Beck: please forgive my mother. She’s so sorry for everything she did. She’s dying of guilt baby. Please forgive her, for my sake
Wow
I wasn’t expecting that. I mean, expecting him to talk about his mom. I thought he was gonna say something else
I couldn’t speak
Beck: baby please… She wants you to forgive her
His eyes were turning teary
Me: you went to see her?
Beck: yeah
Me: that’s really nice Beck… And I’ve forgiven her. I can’t hold anything against her. She’s still your mother
He smiled
Beck: you’re sure about that?
I nodded and placed my hands over his neck then twitched my lips
Beck: thanks babe
Me: hmm umm
I wanted him to kiss me
Me: don’t I deserve a kiss baby
Beck : just a kiss?
He raised his brow
Beck: maybe I should just give you the kiss you want
He reached for my lips and kissed me slow. I didn’t want it to end but then someone drove in roughly
Someone in the likes of Jade
Beck: she shouldn’t drive that way with the kids. Does she want to rip their hairs out?
I chuckled as they stepped out of the car
Tessa: whoa huuu that was so fun
Bene : the funnest of the fun!
Tessa: hey parents
Bene: HI parents
Then they ran off inside.
Jade: hi
Me: maybe those two should quit hanging out with you
Jade: come on… Bene and I have been hanging out for years
Beck: well Tessa wasn’t with him then
Me: and the both of them together is like an atomic bomb… Then with you? You’d burn my house down
Jade: that would be fun
She smirked evilly and walked inside
Me: OH Jade. If only she changed just like Cat did
Beck: I’m quite surprised about Cat. How did that happen?
Me: well, after we left high school, her grandma took her to Cambridge University. Far from the both of us. So she knew no one there and didn’t really engage in lots of things for some time. When she made friends, it was with a girl from the royal family. She was all royalty and moral and all that
Beck: so Cat took her steps?
Me: yeah and then her friend’s elder brother fell in love with her
Me: the royal girl?
I nodded
Me: and I think he has plans of engaging her
He smiled
Beck : how about Trina?
Me: OH shoot! I forgot to tell you. She’s married and pregnant
His eyes widened
Beck: are you serious?
Me: yeah… His name is Seth and he’s a Blondie
He chuckled and kissed my cheek
Me: it’s getting dark
Beck: yeah
He kissed my neck and held unto my waist
He bit gently on my flesh and I moaned to the feel
Then Trina’s voice rang through the air
Trina: dinner’s ready
I groaned and glared at Trina while Beck chuckled
Beck: it’s time for dinner
He winked at me
Trina laughed and went back inside
Beck brought me down and we headed inside
During dinner, it was all fun. It was a complete family
I loved it. Looking beside me was handsome Beck. Opposite me were the best kids ever. Beside me was Jade, my backbone and sitting at the other edge, my dad my pride and Trina, the lady I’ve grown to love so much
I was the one who said Grace and I thanked God for everything that had happened. I was sincerely grateful to him. He has been so kind
***
Tessa: what is she like? Really old?
Beck: no. Grand dad is just the same age with her
Bene : grand dad ain’t in jail.
I rolled my eyes
Me: don’t think that way. She’s really a nice person
Tessa : I can’t wait to meet her though
Bene: yeah yeah
He brought out a video game from his phone
Beck: Benedict you’re not taking that. Drop it now
Bene : dad…
Beck: drop it…
Bene: ahhh
He dropped it on the cushion. I held Tessa’s hand
Tessa: mom, I’m twelve. Not ten
Benedict : so what do you mean by that? That I should be the one who’s hand should be held
Tessa chuckled
Beck: we’ll hold both your hands. Non of you are teenagers yet
We held their hands and walked out of the house to the car.
My driver drove us to the jailhouse and we went in to see Beck’s mother
She was really happy to see us. Especially the kids and I. She cried and begged us to forgive her. She was so glad when I hugged her and told her I forgave her already
Bene sat on her laps and asked her to tell them a story about her cell mates which she did.
I pulled Beck
Me: should I tell her she’ll be out in the next two months
He looked at her and smiled
Beck: nope. Let’s take her by surprise
I smiled
Me: how’s your arm?
I held it and rubbed it up and down
Beck: no longer hurting too much. I can lift it now
Me: I’m just grateful she didn’t touch your hair. Your precious hair I smoothed the hair and he chuckled
Beck : but my balls still hurt
I chuckled and buried my face in his chest. Jade blindfolded him and kicked him all round. Including that place
Tessa: mom… You’re distracting us
I chuckled again
Me: sorry
I hugged Beck and looked at them as they listened to what Beck’s mom was saying
Beck: I didn’t tell you she smashed my phone on the wall
Me: your phone?
Beck: yeah… I replaced it though
I shook my head
Me: I better tell her that it’s enough. She burnt your history books. That was too far
Beck : and I thought you promised to tell her not to kill me
Me: well I told her and she agreed. That’s why you’re not in a hospital now
Beck : okay… Thanks for that
He kissed my forehead
His mum finished the story and both Bene and Tessa clapped
I wonder the type of story she told them
Beck : I’m hungry… Who wants to eat?
Me: yeah. We still have about an hour here
Bene : you know we’re always hungry
Tessa: yeah let’s eat. I hope grandma likes chicken
Grandma: chicken? Gosh I haven’t had that in years
Bene : I can’t stay a week without chicken
We laughed and set the table to eat
***
Months later, Mrs Oliver was out. She was so surprised when she was called upon to sign her leaving papers. I was really glad to see that surprise look.
We took her to a house we bought for her. It was Beck’s house actually. He’s been
living there with Benedict.
Tessa lives with me
We took her to the house where dad and Trina were waiting for us with the kids.
Trina’s tummy was already bulged out.
Mrs Oliver was really happy. She apologized to everyone and we all accepted her as family

Beck soon got into the movie industry. As you would have guessed, he blew it up.
Everyone loved him.
He even acted with Benedict as his father.
But I hate those movie producers and directors who keep giving him romance characters because of his looks. And all those silly ladies who feel they can snatch him from me
Only Benedict cools me off when that anger comes. He keeps saying that beautiful gardens are loved by all and visited by many but owned by one.
That usually cools me down but where the heck did that boy learn that from?
