14 Jay's jealousy for Zoddie.

Cole couldn't believe his ears when I told him everything that happened to me .He didn't stop thanking God that I came back unharmed.

I actually think all of them are really over reacting concerning the issue because Zoddie,even though he has given me nothing but trouble and unpeaceful mind since I came into the campus .I still see him as one who wouldn't go to any extreme as to hurt me too much. I don't know where that kind of feeling emanated from but I guess my heart was just too good.

Cole's reaction to my story was totally averse from my brother's reaction when I told him my story .He seemed distant and calm and he didn't look so suprised.He just looked like he was filled with resentment and anger .I guess towards Zoddie but it was a different kind of anger .Because everyone I've told talked with me freely about it and we even laughed at some point but Jay always took things concerning Zoddie to heart .

I understand that he is my brother and he cares about me but I feel he is hiding something serious from me.Something that explains that kind of strange behaviour he exhibits whenever I tell him about Zoddie .

Why do you always seem angry and quiet whenever I talk to you about Zoddie ?

I asked him as we were heading to his lodge .It was evening time and he was in my house for the whole day.He was already heading back to his house and I decided to follow him .I didn't want to stay alone in my room.Mariana went home to see her mum and get some foodstuffs too and I couldn't just stay alone .

Jay's roommate went over to his other friend's place because they usually study together as Jay told me and he said he wasn't going to come back till the next morning .It definitely means I'm going to spend my night in Jay's place since it's not safe to stay at my place alone.Not like I didn't have any other female friends to stay with but for me Jay was the best option and I know he wanted me to stay over too.

I don't understand the question. Jay said as he opened the door to his room and we went inside.

I said why do you always get upset sort of,whenever I speak to you about Zoddie?

Don't act dumb I said jokingly but he didn't even give a smile talk more of laughing.

I guess it was a bad joke .

There's no other reason other than the fact that you're my sister and I care about your well being.

Nothing more .He answered and entered the kitchen .

I think he wanted me to change the topic and not ask him anything about it again.Why does that always make him uncomfortable?Why does he get so defensive when I ask him about that.

Well with time I'll found out ,because there is no smoke without fire.

What are we eating tonight?I asked him as I joined him in the kitchen. We are eating out ,he answered.

Let me just arrange somethings and we will go out to eat.Hope you're are good with it?

Of course I am,I answered amidst chuckles.

At least I wouldn't have to worry about helping him in the kitchen or doing the dishes later on .I thought to myself .

So Betty..What do you really think about Zoddie ?

I mean I see how you talk about him and I notice you aren't even scared or angered about the incident that transpired between you too.Do you think he's harmless or ?.Just talk to me.

The question suprised me so much because it didn't make any sense to me.why would Jay be asking me what I think about Zoddie.

Everyone knows the kind of person he is and I don't know why he thinks my opinion my differ from that of others,or why he feels its important to ask the question.

Well Jay,I don't really know what to say but all I'm sure of is that I just want to make peace with Zoddie and solve everything once and for all to avoid futuristic problems you know.

Alright if you're ready come outside so we can go,he said as he left the room .

I'd say ge sounded rather too cold and I wasn't really surprised. Anything concerning Zoddie gets him that way.And I can't do anything about it,I'll just let him do his thing.

I thought to myself as I picked my bag and joined him outside and we left for The kings and queens restaurant. That was his favourite place to eat and he has initiated me too.I've come to like the things that he likes .

It's not bad at all.
