JIMMY AND BIANCA? 2

Few moments earlier

Aiden's POV

This Miss Homerna is too much. Why did she wink at me. Leo is my friend and he once said that if you look at a girl and she looked away, it meant she was shy. But this woman made me look away. And why was my heart palpitating this way.

I was deep in thought when I heard my phone ring. It was my mom.

' Good morning mom' I say.

' You brat! I just saw the news about the Gala from the newspaper. Why didn't you tell me?

Bianca is immature, Adam is irresponsible but I expected more from you. Poor Helena! Three bullets. Give her the phone immediately.' Mom says.

She didn't even ask after her son.

' Mom. When I get to Helena,I will call you.' I reply.

' Hmph! Better hurry!' She says and hangs up.

Just great!

I was on my way to Miss Homerna's room when I saw Adam.

' A wonderful surprise to see my brother going to see Helena.' Adam says.

' Mom wants to speak with her' I replied.

' I was about to call her for breakfast ' Adam says.

We both got to the door and then we heard Miss Homerna's voice.

' She is Bianca ' Miss Homerna says.

' Whoa! Bianca Bianca ' I heard Orion say.

And then I heard all Miss Homerna's theory.

Of course I remember all this, That year we went to Florida for a charity event but Bianca was kidnapped. I remember my dad locked mom, Adam and I in our penthouse.

We returned to New York that night and Bianca was never the same. She would cry and refuse to eat or sleep. She kept shouting that she wanted to see her friend and that she didn't want him to die. Bianca underwent so many therapy but she didn't recover. As expected she fell very sick and threw up all her drugs, my parents had no choice but to go for hypnosis. I was nine then but I understood everything a while later.

My parents planned to unhypnotize her but then we all forgot it and it was all in our past but now...

I don't know what happened to my good manners because I entered the room without knocking. And let me say, I was not pleased.

Mr Jennova had his head on Miss Homerna's lap and she was... massaging his head. I noticed Miss Khurana was doing the same to Mr Antonio. Did these guys not know where they could find a massage parlor?

I pushed all those thoughts aside leaving two questions in my head.

How did Miss Homerna accurately theorise the incidence? and how is Mr Jennova connected to my sister?

' And how do you know all this??' I ask

I could swear I saw panic in her eyes but it went as quickly as it came.

' Know what??' Miss Homerna ask.

She is trying to play the dumb game with me.

' How do you know about what happened to Bianca??' Adam asks the question I was going to ask.

' Jimmy and I were present that night. So we found her familiar.' Miss Homerna replies.

' How did you know that she was hypnotised?' I ask.

' Mr Astrovana, we are doctors and that was the most feasible logic. Is there a problem?' Miss Homerna replies as she kept massaging Mr Jennova's head.

Did she think I was joking??

' And I hope you are not planning to dehypnotise her? I will not stand for that! I hope you will leave Bianca the way she is. We have our reason for the choice we made and I hope you understand and do not do anything disastrous. It is best to keep clear from Bianca. Especially you Mr Jennova.' I said.

It felt good to scold Mr Perfect.

Adam pinched my side, I glared at him.

What happened next shocked me!!.

' And who gives you the right to talk to my Jimmy that way?? Did he say he was doing anything wrong? And Bianca is not a child anymore, you can't decide for her who she wants to associate with. And I will not be so courteous next time you speak to my Jimmy that way. One more thing, never enter my room without knocking. Now, GET OUT!!! ' Miss Homerna said. I have never seen her this angry before. She looked dangerously cute. Red face, murderous look argh! what am I thinking?

Adam pulled me out and took me to his room.

' Bro! What's wrong with you?? You didn't have to be so rude' Adam said.

Today is just not my day. First mom, then Miss Homerna and now it's Adam.

Orion's POV

Yep, Aiden touched the wrong nerve. If you want to anger Helena, use Jimmy. And now Helena is mad.

' Chill out Lena! Sheesh,you look like a volcano ' Beverley says.

' Bev is right, anger doesn't suit you.' I say.

Each time one of gets mad, we shorten each other's name till the angry one uses the shortened name on someone.

We are sick right?

' Ori is right. I don't want my Lena to be angry.' Jimmy says.

' Jim he is so annoying! Noone should raise their voice on my Jimmy' Helena replies.

' Yaay! She is not mad anymore. Let's go for breakfast.' Beverley says.

' I ordered icecream ' Helena replies.

' Seriously Helena? Icecream for breakfast?' I ask.

This woman is unbelievable!

' Yes. I wanted you all to have icecream with me before you leave ' She says.

' We'll do as my Helena says ' Jimmy replies.

I grunted. Curse this public display of affection!.

Just then there was a knock on the door.

Jimmy went to get it and then he froze.

**********

Bianca's POV

I have the most foolish brother. I sent him to get Helena, Beverley Orion and Jimmy.

Jimmy...

Dammit Bianca, you have a boyfriend already.

How can his name give me butterflies? Get a grip Bianca.

I guess I have to get them myself. I knocked on Helena's door and there, Jimmy was there.

His hair was messy and I could notice dark circles under his eyes. I felt like hugging him and running my hands through his messed up hair.

' Jimmy who is there?' I heard Orion say.

' Bi.. Bianca come in.' Jimmy says.

My heart stopped. He called my name.

' Breakfast.. It's time for breakfast ' I say.

' We will be right down ' he says as he brushes away a few stray strands from my face.

I can bet I look like a tomato. I walked away as fast as I could. Jimmy Jennova, what are you doing to me??

I sat down at the dining table. Tiffany, Stella, Leo and Jack were already seated.

Jack! I suddenly felt guilty. I was busy fantasizing about another guy when I already have a boyfriend.

I remember when Jack asked me to be his girlfriend. I just knew it was coming.

He would always find excuses for us to meet up.

' Bianca are you cold? Have my jacket. You can return it to me at Bailey's Café tomorrow '

' Bianca please lend me your handkerchief, I will return it to you on Monday at Dewdrops restaurant '

I wasn't surprised when he asked me to be his girlfriend. I didn't have any special feelings for him but then I thought he's sweet, calm and cute. What could go wrong?

Well breaking news! Just one thing went wrong.

I am constantly thinking about another guy.

' Bianca? Bianca?' I heard someone say.

it was Jack.

' Um sorry don't mind me. What were you saying?' I ask.

' I was just asking how was your night? Bianca are you alright??' Jack asked me.

' I am fine.' I replied.

' Please spare me your boring romance ' Leo says. ' Oh please keep quiet you jealous bachelor ' I reply.

But he was right. Aside from going out to eat, occasional kisses, seasonal gifts, nothing was special about my relationship with Jack.

We hardly called or texted each other. And it has been a while since we went on a real date, scratch the Gala out.

But Jimmy and Helena are just friends, siblings to be exact. Yet he feeds her, get her anything she wants, agree with all her tantrums and spoils her rotten. I wonder how such a guy will treat his girlfriend. That girl will be on top of the world.

A few moments later, everyone was present. I watched Jimmy, Orion and Beverley pile food on Helena's plate.

If only my friends were as carefree and caring like Helena's. Instead they both think their princesses.

Remind me why I am friends with Tiffany and Stella? Oh yes, because they are the people around me since I was 16.We were homeschooled together then we went to the same college abroad.

A phone ringing brought me back to reality. it was Aiden's.

********

AUTHOR'S POV

Aiden stared at his phone. it was his mom.

Just great! Now his mother will give him an earful. He forgot to give the phone to Helena.

He answered the phone call.

' You are becoming really naughty. You little rascal. Give the phone to Helena immediately!'

Mrs Astrovana says.

Aiden stretches the phone to Helena.

' Mom wants to speak with you ' He says.

Helena collects the phone.

' Good morning Aunty.' Helena says.

' Helena darling. How are you feeling? I just saw the news, I hope you are okay.' Mrs Astrovana says.

' I'm fine aunty. I got treated by the best doctor so I am fine. But if you want me to feel better you have to promise me two no three things.' Helena says.

' And what might those be?' Mrs Astrovana ask.

' First don't tell mom what happened, second when coming back I want a big box of chocolates and a huge tub of vanilla icecream with extra granola. Agreed?' Helena says.

' Of course dear. Take care of yourself. We'll be back tomorrow, we finished our work early. Bye dear.' Mrs Astrovana says.

' Bye aunty! Say hello to uncle ' Helena replies.

She hands Aiden his phone.

' What did mom say?' Adam asks.

' She said to take care and she will be back tomorrow ' Helena replies.

' So quickly??' Bianca ask surprised.

Helena nods.

The doorbell rings.

Helena gets up and runs to the door.

' Careful Helena!!' Beverley, Orion and Jimmy says at the same time.

Beverley giggles. ' Jinx! You both owe me icecream. Three scoops ' She says.

Helena returns with four tubs of icecream.

' Are you ready for dessert?' Helena ask happily.

' Icecream for breakfast??' Aiden asks with a frown and Beverley giggles.

Helena ignores him.

' Strawberry icecream for Orion, Chocolate icecream for Beverley and Vanilla icecream with lots of granola for my Jimmy and I ' Helena says.

' Seriously! You guys are weird. dessert at breakfast. Huge tubs for that matter' Leo says.

' That's a week's worth of icecream for me ' Bianca says.

' Who's the fourth icecream for??' Adam asks

' For me of course.' Helena replies.

' You?? You already have one you glutton ' Leo exclaims.

Jimmy stared warningly at Leo.

' Back at home, Helena would eat as high as five tubs till Jimmy stops her from eating. Somebody would always secretly buy more for her!' Beverley says staring at Orion.

' Hey! Don't give me that look! Have you seen Helena's eyes? How could I say no to our baby, Jimmy's Helena? Trying saying no to that big blue watery eyes.' Orion replies.

' That is the spirit, Orion. That's why you are my third favourite' Helena says.

' Who's the first and Second?' Leo asks.

' The first is my Jimmy and the second is Miles of course.' Helena replies.

' So Jimmy is more important than your boyfriend? That dude's not gonna be happy.' Adam says.

' Nah! He likes Jimmy more than Beverley and I.

When Helena was leaving, he told Jimmy.

" I don't know how you are going to do it but you have to make sure my girlfriend and wife to be is safe or else.." Orion says.

' Isn't he just adorable?' Helena says. Orion scoffs.

' Wait! You two are already planning marriage?

How long have you guys been together?' Bianca ask.

' We have been together for 7 years' Helena replies. Orion and Beverley grunt.

' Woah! That long? No wonder marriage came in'

Leo says.

Tiffany felt delighted. It means she was already betrothed to someone.

Stella looked at Adam as if her gaze could tell him ' She is off limits. Keep your distance '

Adam felt somewhat disappointed. A relationship that lasted that long wouldn't fall apart so easily. What was he thinking?

Aiden wasn't very happy either. First she snubbed him and now he hears she is close to being engaged to this Miles and the Miles was close to all her friends even the highly unapproachable Jimmy Jennova.

' Author, how are you feeling??' Aiden asks.

Author is shocked! Stoned face Aiden actually asked about her health.

' I.. am doing fine' Author replies.

' Are you sure?' Aiden asks.

' Yes I feel better. Thanks for asking: Author replies.

' So you mean to say, you wrote all this in your right senses? Why the fuck is Miss Homerna ignoring me?' Aiden asks.

' Calm down Aiden. You provoked Jimmy of course Helena will be mad at you.' Author replies.

' I am the male lead in this book ' Aiden says.

' I am also the male lead ' Adam chips in.

' Shut up Aiden. I am meant to get Miss Homerna's attention not Mr Jennova! For goodness sake, I am the male lead ' Aiden says.

' I am also the male lead ' Adam chips in (again)

' Well try putting your big ego aside ' Author replies.

' Now listen to me Jennifer!' Aiden says.

' Jimmy why aren't you gasping?' Leo says.

Jimmy stares at him blankly.

' Aiden used the Author's name on her!' Bianca says.

' Don't you Jennifer me, Aiden Astrovana! I am the boss and this is my final decision ' Author says with a tone of finality.

' This is not over... Jennifer ' Aiden says and walks out.
