Natalie’s POV
I wake up from the bed as someone tap me lightly and I look up to see sis “Morning sis!”I said rubbing my eyes
She sigh deeply and hug me
“Is the pain gone now,cutie?”she asks rubbing my back
I chuckles silently
“I’m fine,thanks huni”I said smiling
She look at me
“Sorry for leaving you alone yesternite”she said
I nods
“It’s okay!”I said to her
she stands up
“To make you to forgive me,I’ve prepare your best food and oh yes,I was told of casual wear today to school”she said walking away
I smiles brightly
“Thanks,you’re a Darling!”I said and she wink at me
She walk out and slam the door shut as I hurry to the wardrobe to look for anything sexy to wear
I find one,a beautiful black top with shinning bow and a crazy blue jeans and a black heels
“Perfect “I said smiling
I rush inside and have a hot shower and soon,I’m already dress up and stuffs my black bag with books and stories
I walk downstairs as brother gasps
“I’m making you my girlfriend straight away”he said and kneel in front of me
I sigh rubbing my hair
“I’m so sorry dear Hans,I’m taken”I said and slap his hands away then put on my speck
Mom.and dad with sis laugh and laugh as he sit on the floor looking so dejectedly
We all sit later on the dinning and eat breakfast silently and soon,we goes out and enter the car
I look out of the car as my heart start beating hard when my eyes dash to the swimming pool and I burst out laughing still tears drop
Brother turn to me
“What’s wrong,sis?”he asks me
I turn to look at him
“Don’t mind me”I said and look at the pool again then laugh more hard
Brother hiss
“They’ll be saying Andy is crazy not knowing Natalie is one definition of craziness!”he said and I laugh more harder
The driver drives out when he look back
“What?”I asks him
He laugh and laugh
“Why is that blind ugly boy hiding and he just hit his head on the wall?”he said and laugh
I quickly look back and see him squat on the floor rubbing his head and I laugh again
Brother just look away
“What a crazy dad,Andy have shove craziness to them”he said and clear his throat
We arrives in school and goes to our different direction after saying goodbye
I hide not so far from our class and wait for Jake to arrives
I’ve wait for hours when I sees that the students are few outside and work about to start so I give up and walk inside
And there he is sitting down on our desk,place his head on the desk and cover it with a big sheet of paper
I hiss and walk inside stamping my feet on the ground “Hey Jake!”I said calling to him
He shake to the bone marrown but still didn’t look up “Hi Nat Nat”he said
I hiss
“Are you not gonna look at me?”I asks him
He sigh
“What the different cos I won’t be able to see you even if I do look up?”he says
And that get me angry
“Look at me,stupid boy”I said fiercely
He sigh and cover his head with his palm
“I don’t wanna look at you!”he said
Oh really
“Okay!”I said and goes to sit down angrily
Soon work start and he never look at my side at all and I too try my best to ignore him
When it break,he carry his drawing stuffs and move to the rooftop without telling me
I look at him as he walk the steps
“Is he for real huh?”I asks angrily
I follow him and sigh
“”Hey Jake!”I said
He look down not looking up
“I wanna draw Nat, don’t disturb me!”he said
Like seriously
“You won’t look at me huh?”I asks as tears gather in my eyes
He sigh
“Sorry dear,I won’t see you anyway”he said
I run down the step then rush into the toilet “You just mess with the wrong person!”I said
I fill the bucket with water then rush out bumping into brother “What’s happening,sis?”he asks me
I ignore and walk away from him when Jason pull me back “Anything the matter?”he asks me
Oh silly,if I didn’t answer my brother,did he think I’ll answer him huh
I pull my hand away
“Fuck off,buddy”I said angrily
I run up the stairs and move to Jake’s front
“Won’t you talk to me?”I asks again
He still didn’t look up
“I won’t Nat and you’re disturbing me much”he said
I laugh evilly
“You’re dead,my dear!”I said raising the bucket up
And down I pour the whole content on his head as his whole body,books and even crayons get wet immediately
He jump up
“What the hell?”he asks screaming
I laugh and fold my hands
“Did that bring back our memory last night together?”I asks hissing
He raise his head up and sigh
“Oh gosh,silly girl!”he said
I just look at him and nd wait for him to do his worse
He point to the ground
“You just spoil that!”he said biting his lips
I follow his hand direction and gasps
“Holy Christ!”I said covering my mouth
On the ground is a picture of everything that transpire yesternite: how he squat down and I hug him from behind,how we sit on the floor looking at each other till the time I think he sleep on the hard cold floor and he draw it so beautifully in cartoon’s form
I rub my hair desperately and kneel beside the paper “Oh I’m so sorry,dear Jake!”I said crying
I quickly take the paper and spread it on the spacious floor of the rooftop without letting it be mixed up
I spread it and put each big crayon on it to avoid been blow away and as I do it,tears fall from my eyes
I thought I’m so gentle like a dove not knowing I’ve a bad temper and can get angry is easily to be blind to something so great like this
He sigh
“Are you crying, Nat?”he asks searching for me
I sit down dejectedly as tears drop endlessly from my eyes
He keep on looking for me
“Answer me silly girl!”he said
I didn’t answer but instead move so far to a corner and squat down there crying and watching how he looks for me
He look like hour but I didn’t burge where im
He suddenly scream out
“Never stay where I can’t find you Nat cos you know I’m blind!”he said shouting as tears drop from his eyes and he kneel down
My heart tear into pieces seeing him as I rush up and dash to where he’s and hug him
“I’m sorry,I won’t ever do that,I won’t stay where you won’t find me,I promise I won’t..”I said halfway as he pull me so close and hugs
Me so tight almost suffocating me
“I’m so sorry for ignoring you but all this feels so new to me so I don’t know how to react to it all!”he said cuddling me
I relax in his arms and smiles
“I’m new to all of this too but you shouldn’t have ignore me!”I said to him
He laugh
“That’s cos I’m stupid boy!”he said and I laugh too
He look at me and sigh
“Wish I could see your red eyes now!”he said
Oh Lord
“You’ll definitely see it someday!”I said
I pull my mouth close and close
When he laugh
“Let’s do it!”he said and before I could say jack,he pull me so tight in his arms and kiss the hell out of me
We kiss so hot for almost an hour and release each other gasping for breath “That’s heart taking!”I said smiling
He too smile
“So mind blowing!”he said
He turn my back to him and hug me from the back
“You know when I learnt from mom that dad leaves her,I thought I’ll never find love cos if someone could leave a woman who’s so caring and lovely then what is me that’s ugly and blind so that word ‘Love’ between a girl nd a boy has no meaning to me cos I know very sure that I won’t ever feel it so when you do that for me yesternite, my heart didn’t say you did it to save me but you do kiss me and I feel damn glad and it feels my whole body system but when I wake up this morning,I’ve a rethink and sees that you’re just too perfect for me:rich,beautiful,smart…!”he said halfway

Theresa’s POV
I sit down as the words he said struck me much “He dare said that”I said as tears gather in my eyes
I stand up and move to the window as tears drop from my eyes
Yes he’s right,I’m a child brought up in a polygamous family and worst of it,my mother is a mistress in the house of my stupid father,Mr Williams and she suffer so much among six wives even use as maid among them
I have to run away from home when the suffering and troubles was too much for me and it not long than three days when I heard my mom commit suicide when she didn’t see me
I almost kill myself too by jumping off the cliff but Cruz was camping there with his campaign’s group and he rescue me then later ask me to marry him and I said yes then
Later on,he become the minister of Sheridan’s city and now I mean now “He dare use my past again me!”I said exclaiming
I don’t truly have love,care, time or attention even trust from anybody eeven my mom cos she was divided among the stupid families of Williams but how dare he
I look out of the window and sees that ugly and blind boy looking out of her window and smiles brightly as my daughter, Natalie walks by and wink at him before getting inside the mansion
I turn to the room and laugh mischievously
“Oh my gosh”I said and didn’t know when I starts crying
I move to the balcony and sees him smiling as he flip through a book
“Isn’t he crazy, he can’t see but he’s looking at a book huh?”I laugh and laugh
I dash inside and take a binocular and set it to his side even tho he didn’t see me
I look at the book as he flip it and anger grow more in me with deep hatred
“Isn’t that my daughter and the ugly blind boy?”I said groaning loud
I sees everything from the book and need no other explanation again
“So dare date my daughter, I mean dare date a beautiful, smart,tall and wealthy daughter of the minister?”I asks looking at him fiercely
I dash out of the room and rush into Natalie’s room “Hey Natalie”I said as I enter

“Isn’t that your lovestory and how you’re romancing in your useless love huh,dear daughter?”I said angrily
She look down then look up
“Didn’t you feel somehow to say useless love when you’re in love yourself,mom?”she asks
I laugh
“Mine is awesome with a normal,rich and perfect man not a use…”I said halfway
when she cut me off
“That’s cos he’s the one you want cos dad is not perfect at all,he do get angry,misbehave sometimes and even act like he care but he said didn’t”she blurt out
Oh gosh,even tho she’s right but how dare her “You said what?”I asks moving close to her
she move close to me too
“When we’re talking about the matter of the heart,we speak softly about it cos the heart is fragile and the one in it is an egg so don’t dare speak anyhow about the special kind of love that I’ve ever,mom”she said
I laugh and turn to her
“Where did you get that power I mean that effrontery from,where did you see the gut to talk to your mom like that,Natalie?”I asks
She smiles and look up
“From love mom cos that I’ve love that you call useless even tho it didn’t offend you and even show you always it bright side is what gives you the power,effrontery and gut that you’re talking about and make you do what you think you’ll never be able to do in a long years even eternity to comes”she said glaring at me
Oh yes,why is she always right
“Love might be so but never will I allow you to date him,NEVER!”I said tapping her on her shoulder
She turn around laughing then face me back
“Common mom,be grown up already cos that heart you’re talking about is mine and do you know the funny thing is it didn’t listen to me that owns it so why the fucking hell will it listen to you,it damn nobody?”she said screaming

Talking about the most bad temper in the Cruz’s family,then first is Natalie Cruz
No one wins her
My husband laugh
“You’re not dating that boy and that’s final”he said to her
I nods
“Never ever if you’re still our daughter”I said firmly
She slap her head and look up at us
“When we’re talking about love,no one makes law for her and when you’re talking about Natalie Cruz, you know she’s so fucking adamant when she said she wanna do something so I don’t care what you do or say but I’m nver letting go ever”she said in commanding tone
