Chapter 53
“Are you looking for him? Please just leave him alone, I love you” Henry said and was about to kiss her.
Leo comes there. He was shocked at what he saw.
“Are you mad?, how dare you?”Vicky pushed him and gave him three resounding slaps.
“Am sorry Vicky, I know I made a very big mistake” Henry pleaded.
“If you come closer to me I will kill you with my bare hands. Don’t try to move closer.
Who do you think you are. Hmm, I have always kept quiet and nice towards you.
But I won’t do that today. Am warning you, if you still cherish the friendship between us then don’t even try this rubbish with me again” Vicky yelled.
All attention was on them. She was about to leave when she saw Leo standing.
“Leo” She called and ran to hug him.
Henry gets teary eyes. “Do you see what he did? He wanted to kiss me, what did he think of me” Vicky said crying.
“Common, am here now”Leo hugged her passionately.
Henry was about to leave.
“Stop Henry”Leo stopped him.
He stopped and gave him a deadly look.
“Victoria just a minute, “Leo said and try to disengage the hug.
He walked closer to him angrily.
“What are you trying to do. Are you trying to create a rift between the two of us? What’s your problem tell me, I am interested?”Leo asked.
“My problem is that you took what belongs to me, she’s mine and I will prove to her I love her dearly.
You are only trying to use her as I did before but I won’t let this happen” Henry said.
“I think I have started to understand what your problem is.
But you are mistaking me, I will never do what you did to her.
I can’t stand so low. I also have a sister, and I will never want any man to cheat on her.
Why do you think am like you. We are different guys. Please am begging you to stay away from her”Leo said with his hand joined.
“No one can stop me from doing that, am not scared of you,” Henry said.
“Aren’t you ashamed of yourself, are you not tired of causing trouble everything? Am warning you now. If you don’t want to see my anger stay away” Leo said and turn to leave.
“Now you will listen to me” Henry hold him back.
Someone hold Henry’s hand.
“Romeo, what are you doing here?”Henry asked.
“Same thing you came to do here, let go of his hand. Come with me” Romeo said and dragged him from there.
“Romeo why do you bring me here?” Henry asked.
“Because if I hit you over there, people will think am mad. What’s your problem, why don’t you leave her alone? Can’t you see Vicky isn’t interested in you again? Why are you disturbing yourself? If you have valued her back then, you won’t have kept that relationship a secret.
You guys think it was a secret, but I was aware that you guys are dating. I see how much Vicky cares and loves you.
That’s where my suspicious start. I have to ask Vicky, she wanted to lie but didn’t because she consider me her role model.
And I start to wonder why you will want to keep the relationship a secret. When she’s not an imbecile, but I confirmed it the day she and Pamela came to meet you, and you said you are just doing her a favor.
A favor, how could you ever say such. What type of favor is that, hmm.
You know why I didn’t support them when they wanna expelled you from school. That’s because that’s not the right thing to do.
I can watch them put your life on track because of what happened.
But to be sincere I was disappointed in you with what you did today” Romeo said.
“I know I did wrong. I wrong Vicky a lot, but I realized it now. I just wanna correct my mistake and ask for her forgiveness but she’s stuck with Leo.
I think it was because she was angry that’s why she’s forcing herself on him.
But things aren’t turning out for me” Henry said with tears.
“Wipe your tears and smile, everything will be okay”Romeo.
Henry was so happy thinking Romeo wanna help him.
“Do you know the reason I asked you to wipe your tears?”Romeo asked.
“Yes, because you wanna help me”Henry replied.
“Yes, I wanna help you in the best way ever.Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
I will like to tell you that if you don’t value something, you would never know its usefulness until it slips off your hand.
Henry, Vicky is gone. She can’t be yours anymore, she used to be yours before, but how can she can’t be yours again.
This will serve as a lesson for you. You are just her first love but can’t be part of her life again.
If you want to keep bound with her, better stay as a truthful friend, because the Vicky I know to respect all relationships, and Leo isn’t bad either, Am telling you this as a brother”Romeo said.
Henry breaks down into tears.
“He’s too late buddy. Crying won’t solve anything. I will have to go now” Romeo said.
“Wait, thanks, I will do as you say. I believe in you and know can’t deceive me. Thanks for making me come back to my senses” Henry said and hugged him.
“You are welcome Buddy” Romeo said and hugged him.
“I will go now, need to and join the rest,” Romeo said and disengage from the hug.

“Am sorry, I almost misunderstood you. I thought you gonna allow him to kiss you, but you proved me wrong.
I would never doubt you again I promised.”Leo pleaded holding her hand.
“Let’s forget about that, it’s okay. I never expect that of him, “Vicky said.
“I don’t blame him. Is not easy to lose someone who cares so much about us.
The reason why am angry with him right now, is that he is creating a scene everytime. They should accept his fate now” Leo said.
“Common leave him alone, am very sure he will come back to apologize after Romeo would have spoken to him.
I trust Romeo, he will make you accept your mistake no matter what.
He was the cause of everything. So why is he overreacting” Vicky said.
“Vicky it seems I head the MC, it seems the time has arrived to announce the winner,” Leo said.
They both ran to the hall. “I am scared, don’t know who the winner will be, “Vicky said.
“Don’t be scared, just relax. I am here with you. Just look into my eyes, breath in breath out then smile.
Then all your pain will vanish. Vicky does as he said.
“Thanks,” She said and smile’s at him. She went to join her school participant.

Romeo POV
“Hi junior, you must have missed me a lot , a love your performance, it was such a WOW. I love it you will make a good musician.
But Mr. Emery would not make that dream come true. It will be in your dream. He still said it this morning that he will fail you and your school.
But do you know what, your mum disagree but you know my dad very well, he’s a man of his word? I have a gist for you” Cindy said.
“Cindy is been long, who wouldn’t want to listen to your gist, common am listening” I said waiting for what she wanted say.
“Your parent has been fighting because of you, she even come to your school but didn’t see you, your mum loves you a lot but, sadly, you can’t be with her”Cindy said with a fake tear.
“Whatever, you can leave now, just wait for my success,” I said to her.
“You don’t know the reason I told you to relax, you know dad doesn’t always leave any stone unturned so just wait and see what happens, “Cindy said and fold her hand on her breast.
She winks at me to look at the stage.
“Sorry guys, we take your time but is okay now. We will be announcing the winner without wasting any time” The MC said.
“But this year, we won’t be the one announcing this rather Mr. Emery has decided to announce the winner himself, “The MC said.
“What! how could they allow him”I exclaimed?.
“That’s why I told you to be patient. Is good you know now. Bye junior”Cindy said and walked away from my side.
Mr Emery walked majestically to the stage. He was given the microphone.
“Hmmm!”He chuckled.
