"Alexis, why were you against marrying Ben, I heard he's coming over tonight to meet you" I said.
" Jem, he tried to kidnap me and forced me to marry him," Alexis replied.
"That's five years ago or so Alexis, even though Lucas betrayed me, I'm gonna forgive him. I'm just focused on finding a job sissy" I said.
"hmmm" Alexis sighed
My phone began ringing and the caller was....... Lucas, I restrained to pick up but I later did
"Hello" I started
" hi Jem, how are you doing" the caller, Lucas asked
"I'm fine, sure u wanted something else, how is your fiance ivory, I'm sure u guys are still dating, Lucas when will you stop being a fool" I sighed, angry
"Jem, I'm so sorry for not listening to you my friend" he was interrupted by me
"Yôur what?;!, I wondered why I even picked up the call, bye" I hanged up furious

"That's in the past and I wasn't the one who suggested Mrs Wilson should chose me and lupiter, leave all that aside, how's Chloe and Ella, when last did you hear from them" Fred asked.
"last week, Ella just found a job, she's working for Biggs furniture store while Chloe is a medical intern" I said "cool, you too will soon find a job, bye"he said
