PIZZA GIRL
ISAAC
“It’s time to go home.” I said happily holding her hands up.
“I don’t know why my eyes are still pinning.” She said and I made her sit again.
“I will help with her bag.” Enoch said and I shot him a deadly look.
“It’s fine Isaac. He just wants to help.” She said and I sighed holding her by the waist and getting her up again.
“Children the vehicle is very ready.” Mom said and we all nodded smiling.
I led her out of the ward, with Enoch behind us holding the bag in his arms.
Ma’am Caroline paid off all the bills before leaving the hospital. I wonder why she left so early. She is yet to tell me about Klaus’s whereabouts.
“Enoch I am going home now. Are you coming?” Danielle asked and he shook his head.
“I will meet you at home mom. I need to get this bags to Diana’s house.” He said and Diana smiled. But to me, it was still hard to believe he had changed.
“Don’t cause any troubles okay?” She said and he nodded.
She walked to our front and kissed Diana on the forehead.
“You will be fine okay? I promise you will be safe.” She said and Diana nodded.
“Thank you Ma’am Danielle.” She said and she diverted her look to me.
“And you lover boy. Don’t worry, we would get to the bottom of all this. Keep her safe.” She said and I nodded.
“Okay Danielle. Thank you so much for the time and care.” I said and she smiled walking away.
“I guess it’s the three of us now.” Enoch said and I looked away.
“Not the three of us. Mom and Uncle John are next to the vehicle.” Diana said smiling.
“Oh I forgot. That’s good though. At least we have adults around us.” He said and we got to the vehicle.
I allowed Diana go in first and then turned to face Enoch.
“I can handle it from here.” I sad collecting the bag from him.
“Are you sure?” He asked looking at Diana.
“It’s fine Enoch. You should rest at home. You have been up for too long. Thank you so much.” She said and he nodded Smiling.
“What are friends for. I will catch up with mother.” He said stretching his hand to me, and I hesitated in receiving it.
“C’mon Isaac, it’s just an handshake.” Diana said and I sighed collecting his hand.
“Thanks for caring. And I don’t think we need that anymore. She is good now.” I said hoping into the car and shutting the door.
He waved at Diana smiling widely and I felt great jealously in me.
“Arrrgh.” I said looking away.
“You should act nice to him Isaac. He is trying to be good here. Let’s help him be that good boy.” She said.
“Diana anytime I see him,all I think is that he wants you for himself. Not this friendship shit.” I said and she smiled holding my hand.
“I love you Isaac. I can never love Enoch. He is just a friend okay? No worries.” She said and I nodded Smiling faintly.
“You two would be at home. I need to get to the shop.” Mom said and I nodded.
“Sure. We will do just fine alone.” I said and Uncle John looked at us.
“Of course you will. And about Enoch, don’t be a d**k to him okay? Diana already told you she loves you. You don’t need to be worried about him.” He said and I nodded.
“I will try to act nice. But if he tries shit with me or Diana, I will so kick his a*s.” I said and she laughed.
“Deal. And please can we just forget about Enoch? At least for today?” She asked and I nodded.
“Sure. Anything for you baby.” I said and she blushed placing her head on my shoulders are we kept moving.

We got home, and I helped Diana down the car. We walked inside, while mother helped with the bag.
“Here. I would leave with John now.” She said as soon as she dropped the bag on the couch.
“Okay Mom. I love you.” Diana said as I led her to the room with the bag in my hand.
We got to the room and I let her sit on the bed gently. I dropped the bag on the bed too.
“Let’s start unpacking.” I said smiling. I began to pack out her clothes and arrange them in the closet.
“Did you take my phone?” She asked and I looked back.
“Nope. Is it not in the bag?” I asked and she shook her head searching it thoroughly.
“Oh no. I forgot it.” She said and I sighed.
“I would get it for you.” I said and then we heard a knock on the door.
I walked out of the room and headed for the main door. I opened it and saw Enoch at the door.
“What are you doing here?” I asked angrily.
“Diana must be looking for this.” He said raising up her phone.
“How do you have that?” I asked dragging the phone from him.
“She left it back at the hospital. I found it before mother and I left. How is Diana?” He asked looking inside.
“She is fine. You can take you leave now.” I said and slammed the door against his face.
