Keira and George sat on the porch swing pushing it with their legs back and forth as Keira had a bowl of ice cream on her lap which she ate every now and then.

"Marcus asked me to move in with them" Keira said as she scooped a spoonful of ice cream George looked at her surprised.

"Why?" George said as he stopped pushing his legs.

George still didn't know about Tyra's heart condition so keira knew she had to think fast, she quickly smiled and faced him "because of her pregnancy thing he said she keeps freaking about everything it's crazy".

George smiled and embraced Keira feeling kind of relieved "I remember when your mum was pregnant for Tyra she too panicked about everything" he smiled and looked up as if he was hoping to see her or something "she wanted everything to be perfect for the baby she just couldn't wait to hold her in her arms".

Keira looked at him with a bittersweet feeling she put down her ice cream bowl and held his hand "did she just decide to give up her life for me or..did..did you talk about it with her?" Keira looked at him with sadness in her eyes.

George swallowed and sighed deeply then he smiled "all she said before you were born was that whatever the outcome will be me and Tyra will be so happy about it and she didn't want me to question her decision once it was over".

"Do you regret not taking part in her decision?" Keira said trying hard to fight her tears.

George faced her "never I have never ever regretted any of it, you have been a joy to my life you and Tyra I wouldn't bear it if anything ever happened to you". They hugged and Keira smiled as tears ran down her cheeks "I love you daddy".

"I love you too" George said stroking her hair.

Tyra went to her mother's grave holding a bouquet of flowers, it was 23 years ago when her mother was buried but her grave site looked like she just died she placed the flowers on her tombstone and stepped back.

"Hey mum, it's been a while since I last visited well what's new? Umm I'm pregnant now" she smiled and touched her belly "it's getting bigger everyday Keira hopes it's a girl and I don't really care as long as it's a baby" she sat down on the bench next the grave her hand still on her tummy "I might die mummy" she said and put her hands on her face as her tears started to flow "I'm so scared mum I..I...don't know what to do, I don't wanna die and I don't think I'll be able to live with myself if I lose my baby" she smiled as tears still flowed down her cheeks "how did you do it mum how..how did you have the courage to decide this, because I am going crazy I can't sleep am tired of the fake smiles and the happy people around me I need closure mum I need an answer".

Keira was at the mall going store by store trying to get something that will cheer her sister up since she was going to move in she knew Marcus had obviously got the best of the best things for Tyra and the baby but she wanted to get something either way. She saw a cute pair of baby shoes and Keira knew she just had to get them she got in the store and got them and a few more other things she got to the counter and placed her things on the till the same time as someone else.

"Excuse me I got...." Keira said and stopped after seeing hazel eyes guy, "oh boy" Keira thought to herself.

He smiled at her and took his things off the till "after you".

Keira quickly purchased her things while she avoided looking at him, and he on the other hand had his eyes on her she paid and left immediately she paid and the guy just smiled.

She walked out the store and walked as quickly as she could while her heart was racing "is he following me?" She asked herself then she felt someone tap her shoulder she turned around and their he stood again.

"Are you following me?" Keira asked bluntly.

He smiled and Keira wondered why "yes I followed you".

"OK you seriously need to back off...." Keira said stepping back.

" I only came to give you your change you rushed out and forgot it with these shoes" he said holding up the baby shoes she admired, Keira quickly closed her mouth so embarrassed.

"Here" he handed them to her.

Keira got them feeling so embarrassed "thanks" she said still unable to look at him.

"Am Jake by the way" he reached out his hand.

"Keira" she said as they shook hands "listen am really sorry for.." Keira got interrupted by a blonde girl that was dressed as if she was going for a cocktail party she clung onto Jake making Keira surprised.

"Jakey there you are I have been looking all over for you" she said not even recognising Keira's presence.

"Amanda what are you doing here?" Jake said moving his hand from her clasp.

"I came to see you at the office then Stan told me you were here so I told my driver to bring me here to see you" Amanda said sounding like a really spoiled brat.

Keira started to move away slowly till she was out of there she took a deep breath and walked as fast as she could.

"Amanda Amanda I am really busy right now" Jake said watching Keira walk away.

"But Jakey...." Amanda said and he interrupted her.

"Not now Amanda"he said finally and ran for Keira "Keira Keira wait".

Keira stopped and turned "look Jake I don't want to get in the middle of you and your girlfriend so please just....".

"She's not my girlfriend" Jake interrupted "Amanda is my boss's daughter" Jake said all serious.

"Well she clearly likes you" Keira said all sarcastic.

Jake laughed and stepped forward "are you jealous?".

"What no I...I..I barely know you" Keira stammered all anxious.

"If you say so, give me your phone" he reached out his hand.

"What?" Keira asked surprised.

He grabbed her phone from her hands so fast before she knew it.

"Hey!" Keira exclaimed surprised.

He took a picture of himself saved his contact and called it from keira's phone then he handed the phone back to her.

"I just asked for your phone not your kidney you can relax,was nice meeting you again Keira" he said while he took a picture of Keira who had a surprised look on her face he saved it in his phone and started to walk away leaving Keira surprised.

"I don't want your number" Keira shouted.

"You can always delete it" Jake said still walking away.

Keira stood shocked at what just happened somehow she couldn't just help but blush she realised that she was blushing then she quickly walked away feeling her stomach tie into a knot again.

"Jasmine it was nothing OK!"Keira said while she got her clothes from the closet and packed them in her suitcase all smiley.

"Oh my gosh you like him you have to tell me all about it" jasmine said all jumpy. She was keira's best friend with really strange tattoos.

"I don't like him has I just met him OK?" Keira said trying to keep a straight face.

"You are 23 and you have never dated how is that possible?" Jasmine said.

"Look am not in a hurry I will find the right guy some day" Keira corrected her.

"What if he's the right guy?" Jasmine sat next to her.

Amanda walked to the door and knocked slowly this time she was dressed in just normal clothes though still looking expensive, Jake opened the door and sighed after seeing her.

"Amanda what are you doing here?" Jake walked in the apartment she followed and closed the door.

"I came to apologise for my behaviour earlier, I know you were busy and I ruined it for you please forgive me" she said all pouty.

Jake sighed and sat on the couch "coffee?" He asked holding up his cup.

She smiled and sat next to him "actually I was thinking that maybe we can go watch a movie".

"Amanda I just want to stay in and..."Jake said then she interrupted and clang onto him.

"Oh come on Jake it'll be fun like old times people hang out even after they break up you know come on please jakey please please please" she leaned on his shoulder smiling.

Jake sighed and smiled finally "OK I'll go take a quick shower and change" he stood up and walked to his bedroom as Amanda watched him all excited.

"Am just saying Keira he could be your Marcus" jasmine said.

"What?" Keira asked surprised "what do you mean Marcus?".

"You know your one true love like Tyra found Marcus maybe he is yours as well" jasmine handed her phone to her "call him you never know what's in store for you".

"I don't know jas I should be packing I am Leaving tomorrow remember" Keira defended herself.

"Stop being stubborn and call him" jasmine placed the phone in her hand.

Keira got the phone and dialed his number and placed the phone at her ear.

"It's ringing" Kiera said all excited.

Amanda watched Jake's phone ring while he was still in the shower, so she decided to pick up for him.

"Hello Jake's phone" she said casually.

"Oh um hi is Jake in?" Kiera said starting to regret why she called.

"Ya he is who are you?" Amanda asked bluntly.

"Am Kiera can I talk to him?" Kiera said really wishing she could hang up."he'll call you when his all dressed up can I take a message" Amanda said aiming to annoy Kiera.

"No need" Kiera quickly hung up.

Amanda smiled so deviously hoping she achieved her goal she was still holding onto Jake's phone she turned around and came face to face with him, he stood by the door fully dressed his hair shaggy and a little wet looking at her seriously with his arms folded.
