"Let's go stephen, enough". Emily said.

Stephen holds her hand and took her in his tent.

"Are you ok?"Stephen asked.

"No, she ruined everything all of our drinks"Emily said.

"But why did she did that?"Stephen asked.

"I don't know why she is always like this when I am with you guys " Emily said.

"Leave it, it's okay" stephen said and changed the topic.

"There's a mark on your arm" stephen said while pointing.

"It's the gift you gave me on our first meeting"Emily said.

"Yeah, it's been a long time". Stephen said.

"I still hold grudges anyway"Emily smiled and said.

Stephen laughed then he told Emily to take some rest while he goes outside then Bruce showed up he was running.

"Where's Emily? " bruce said.

"She is resting now don't disturb her" stephen said.

"But how did it happened?"bruce asked.

"Because of you , bro betty likes you which is obvious to everyone except you and now she is jealous of Emily"stephen said.

"I didn't know about it, let me talk to Emily first"Bruce said.

"No, she don't want to talk about it anymore just go and listen don't ever make Emily hurt because of you it's my last warning".stephen said.

Bruce looked at stephen's eyes then he left. He enters in betty's tent, Betty was sitting there with stessy then Bruce said "What's all this?"

"What do you mean bruce ?" Betty asked.

"Why are you annoying Emily? " bruce said.

"I hadn't done anything she also said bad things to me"betty said.

"Then why did you push her?" Bruce screamed.

"Why does it bother you?" Betty screamed.

"Cause I like her"bruce yelled.

"What?"Betty asked.

"Yes, I will not tolerate this kind of behaviour of yours anymore, stay away from my life" bruce said.

"Bruce, listen.."Betty said but Bruce left then betty cried, stessy consoled her.
