What will be will be

Dwayne lay at the bed exhausted, he had a long day, from one lecture to the other. He didn't think he would enjoy the lectures but funny enough he did. He will be forever grateful to miss Sky, she didn't even allow him use his money for anything. She paid for his transport, lectures even feeding and gave him a place to stay.

All his life he's been lost, not knowing what to do with himself but thanks to Mr Jay who employed him and Ms Sky who made him fall in love with the job. Now he's found something he loves doing. He spoke to Mr Anton yesterday and all he talked about was extensive training when he gets back. He smiled as he remembered his conversation with Ms Sky.

She first of all asked him if he was doing ok, if the weather was favourable, and the food, she went on like mother hen about his wellbeing before she told him about all that was happening back home. He couldn't stop laughing when she told him about how she faked being in shock when she found out about Jenna and Aidenn. He too isn't in support of it and told her not to allow them get married now.

He felt strange when she asked him about Soma, somehow it doesn't seem right to be talking to her about Soma. Yeah she was right, he likes Soma. They spent last night talking on video call. He enjoys everytime they spend together. And he liked the way they were moving slowly. If there's anything he's learnt from Ms Sky is that take things slow, if you move too fast, you might miss something.

He had asked her of her DOB and she told him. He didn't wanna miss it. Although she told him it can't be predicted, that it could be earlier or later...he still want to return before she puts to birth. She went ahead and talked to him about classes and training he'll take after sweetpea is born.

He could tell from her tone that she wasn't happy, he tried to tell her funny stories and he ended up making her laugh. Dwayne wish he could pay her back and make her happy all the time and he'll make sure he'll always be there for sweetpea. He touched his jacket, she had bought him cold cloth for winter and had him pack it with his luggage. He didn't understand how someone could be so nice, now he understands why Mr Jay chose her.

Sky sat in her mom's living room eating popcorn. She and her gang had bundled themselves and came here early this morning. It was a full house, Brianna and her family, Anton, Kira and Zino and her family, even Mrs Angela was around. Jenna was sitting close to Sky trying to get to her good side, it's been four days since her shock and she still hasn't said anything to Jenna. She was happy when Jenna brought uttah home, the puppy had grown really fat cause of what Tega fed him.

Uttah sat lazily on Sky's leg sleeping. Luckily for the poor puppy, Tega was sleeping. So it could also nap. Tega was full of energy and all its focus was now on the poor dog.

Sky noticed the way Mrs Angela looked at her from time to time. It was awkward to be in the same place with Neto's mother. She remembered her plan for Neto tomorrow and smiled, she'd called his secretary and confirmed he'll be in the office tomorrow morning.

Sky was watching Jenna as she typed on her phone. She noticed her mood change and noticed the way she threw her phone on the floor. And tears fell down her face. Sky couldn't hold it in anymore, she reached out to her sister and held her hand. "Jenna baby, what is it? talk to me. please don't cry."

Jenna removed Sky's hand from hers. "It's all your fault sist, I've been trying to talk to you but you wouldn't listen. Now he is gone, are you happy?" With that she stormed out of the house.

"If you want us to fight, at least help me up Jen. I sat on the floor so you could sit close to me. Now you leave me down here, knowing it'll be difficult for me to stand up on my own."

Sky screamed after Jenna. She noticed the way everyone's attention was on her. So she smiled and said. "It's nothing, I've got it mom." And she tried to get up.

"Sweetheart you are as big as an elephant, sometimes I think you have more than one in there, please take it easy, you have a precious life inside of you." Mrs Angela said as she helped the young lady up, she don't know why she loves the girl. Somehow she still wish her son could see what she see.

"It's just one big baby Angela, we are sure of it." Mrs Onome said smiling as she helped her daughter up. "Mena you shouldn't sit on the floor anymore, use the big couch. And are you sure you don't need our help with Jenna?"

"Mom it's cozy down here and Jenna wanted to sit with me so I chose this spot since it's free. Don't worry it's just a small argument between us. Thanks Mrs Angela and thanks Mom" Sky said as she walked out of the house to look for Jenna.

Luckily she found Jenna at the backyard at her spot. She was surprised to see her lighting a cigarette. "Don't do that Jen. If he really loves you, he won't leave you behind. Are you going to ruin your life because of a man? I thought you said you don't smoke."

"What do you care sist? it's my life, let me live it the way I want. He waited for me. We were suppose to get married three days ago and travel together, he said he had things to do in L.A" Jenna said, wiping the tears off her face.

"Then he'll be back. If he truly cares for you, he'll be back. Let me ask you a question Jen. If you think it's right, why are you keeping it away from mom and the others? Mom should be the one you talk to first and sister Brianna, not me I'm the second child Jen."

"I know Mom won't support it and sister Brianna too but sist this is different, I love him. I don't know, I just want to be with him." Jenna threw the the cigarette away and stood up to face her sister.

"In time Jenna, you will know if he truly cares. Why do you think we don't want you to get married, you are still young and an undergraduate at that. I think you should finish studying, since you've already started. Make something of yourself, don't just marry and depend on a man, it's never easy. I don't want you to regret that's why. If you do all this and you still feel the same way about him, I'll personally wed you both in my wedding hall."

Jenna was surprised as her sister mentioned the wedding hall. "It's ready sist? I'm so happy for you." She hugged her sister and smiled.

"Yes it is Jenna and if Aidenn doesn't come back for you, or he's using you in anyway, I'll kick his butt. You know I can. I'll travel all the way to LA to kick his butt down here and have him apologise. Give it sometime, I know you worry about his feeling for his ex, let him miss you a bit and see if he really wants you. I put you two together, let's see if you two can reach out to each other without me. "

"I'm scared his feelings for me will change if he leaves sist."

"Then let it change Jenna. Would you rather be with a man whose feeling for you will change because of others or distance. Or a man who'll love you more because of the distance and even defend you in the presence of others? What will be will be Jenna, don't stress it. Be the Addy he fell in love with. Addy was a successful, smart barrister who has money in her account and a nice apartment."

Jenna laughed and cried at the same time as her sister described Addy . "Yes you are right sist. Thanks alot sist. I love you."

"Love you more Troy. Now let's go in before the whole family comes out." Sky smiled at she saw Brianna's cloth from the other side of the house.

"Hurry let's go they are coming." Anton said to everyone and they all ran back to the house.

"I love eavesdropping mom. Now you see, we know what's happening thanks to me" Brianna said laughing as she tried to catch her breath.

"Yes this time you are right" Brianna. Mrs Onome said laughing "but I can't feel my waist from all the running."
