Chapter 71
In The Afternoon... 3:09 pm
Boston Hospital
VIP Ward

Still, at the hospital, Most of them have gone home to change and eat. With too much persistence, Elizabeth later went home with Morgan to freshen up likewise others leaving only the children to keep Malia's company and get close back.
Warren, Miley, and Kelvin stood up after giving themselves signs of leaving the hospital because their parents will be expecting them soon since they have been here for a long. So they have to Leave.
"Errmm... Senior Malia, we will love to leave now because our parents will be expecting us from now on," Warren said as Miley and Kelvin nodded
"I'm deeply sorry for what my sister has done I hope you take your time to forgive them," Miley added facing the ground
"Yes and we with you quick recovery in Jesus name," Kelvin added
"When did you become a Christian," Elle scoffed
"I have always been a Christian," Kelvin rolled his eyes
"What, it doesn't even reflect in you at all," Isabel hissed
"Yes, he is the perfect definition of a playboy," Theo added
"No, I'm going to be a reverend father in the future, God bless my soul," Kelvin told them and did the cross sign
"Aiiisssshhh, unbelievable," Isabel shook her head
"Whatever, I'm a Christian believe it or not, I don't care," Kelvin rolled his eyes
"May God forgive you," Elle hissed
"Amen," Kelvin glared at her, and everyone laughed
"Anyway, Thanks kids...," Malia was cut off
"Kids," Warren frowned
"Yes, ain't you guys kids," Davina scoffed
"Of course not, we are adults, full-grown adults," Kelvin said
"Adult, you don't even at like one, have the characteristics of what it entails to be an adult," Elle scoffed
"Then maybe I should get you pregnant, then maybe front there we will first know if truly I'm not," Kelvin snapped
"Says the future reverend father," Isabel hissed
"Not with my sister, so it is better you keep that thing in your pocket else I will get you castrated," Michel threatened
"That was all a joke, I'm a kid, not an adult," Kelvin shook his head removing his eyes from Michel's deathly glares and everyone laughed
"Anyway, I'm grateful for you guy's coming," Malia smiled and faced Miley," I don't have any grudges against your sister since Rose is here, but if they can plead guilty, I can look for a way to lessen their punishment," Malia added
"Thank you," Miley smiled," I'm happy I had gotten close to Ivy, if not probably this is what would have happened to me because of something that doesn't make sense," she sighed
"It is alright," Malia nodded
"So how will you all get home," Mabel asked
"Don't worry, I will drop them home," Kelly suggested
"Alright," Malia smiled
"Then, I will join him, don't worry," Davina added smiling while Kelly smirked at her
"Ohh... Ok," Rose faked a coughed and asked," Is there something going on with both of you,"
"Is there something going on between us," Kelly asked Davina
"Uhmmm... We just ... We just happened...," She trailed off
"Yo, it is Lucas in the building," A young guy in his early twenties enters the hospital room
"Lucas," Rose and Mabel's half screamed running to meet him but Rose got to him first before Mabel.
Lucas is Michel's cousin. He is from Mr. Louis's side. Mr. Louis's sister's last child is Lucas and he was known Rose before her fake death.
"I have missed you," Rose squealed
"Same here, you are finally free," he said and disengaged from her
"Babe," he smirked and drew her closer by the waist slamming his lips on hers not sacred they are in the presence of everyone.
"Ewww... Gross, kids are here," Kelvin squeezed his face as they heard Mabel moan his name out.
"I have missed you so much," Mabel said as they disengaged from the kiss
"Same here and finally that everything is over, we can enjoy ourselves," Lucas pecked her lips once more before directing his face towards Malia
"Sorry Malia, I heard about what happened,"
"Thanks, Lucas," Malia smiled
"Lucas," Michel called him
"Oh Lucas, you are here," Lucas said acting surprised
"Of course, I'm here because I'm sure you knew I would," Michel hissed
"Did I, I doubt that," Lucas scoffed
"So you knew about this too," Michel asked him
"Yes, I did when I noticed how Mabel is always sneaking out, always going out every time, so I decided to trail her without her knowing, that was how I found out," Lucas shrugged
"And you didn't tell me," Michel raised his brows
"Of course not, I wanted to tell you but it will put your life in danger and you cast everyone out of your life, so how is it possible for me to tell you," Lucas sighed
"That is well said, I'm grateful for taking care of her," Michel smiled at him lightly
"You don't need to, you are my brother and I know you can do more than this for me," Lucas said patting Michel's shoulder
"Thanks," Michel nodded and hugged him
"I don't get one thing, Rose mentioned that you are her boyfriend and both of you just showed us it is true, how," Kelly asked feeling shocked
"Well said, Rose is my girlfriend and as been my girlfriend for two and a half years now, we have been love ourselves deeply," Lucas smiled and pecked her on the lips to prove his words
"But I thought she love me," Kelly frowned
"That was a mere girl crush. I indeed had a crush on you but that was when we were in grade 5 and ended in junior year two because I began to like Lucas," Mabel shrugged
"I only continued to act as if I liked you because I don't want Ivy and the girls to be suspicious of me that is why I'm sorry if you are annoyed," Mabel apologized
"No, don't be. Instead, I should say thank you for everything. Now, I'm having a guilty conscience about how I treated you," Kelly sighed dejectedly
"No because if you kinda grow feelings for me, it would be more difficult knowing I have a boyfriend," Mabel paused and looked at Davina
"Davina won this time around, she can have you instead," she smiled
"Really, are you now tossing me away just like a paper, tch," Kelly scoffed
"She is not. She is only telling you to give a chance to her, that is all," Lucas told him
"Now, I miss the Mabel who crush have an on me," Kelly sighed dramatically
"Well, you can't have her anymore it is all in the past, deal with it," Lucas snapped
"Hey, no one is taking her from you," Kelly rolled his eyes
"Good to hear," Lucas smiled," I can't share her with someone else,".
"No one is planning to," Michel said," so please stop this your argument, it is annoying," he said and Kelly threw him a glare.
"If you won't mind Malia, I would love to borrow Mabel," Lucas told her
"Please don't borrow her, take her with you because she is all yours," Malia smiled
"Alright, we will see you later," Lucas said
"Alright," Malia nodded
"Bye everyone," Mabel waved at them as she walked out with Lucas holding her possessively.
"Kids, let's leave now," Kelly suggested
"Sure," Warren said
"We will be right back, take care of yourself," Kelly pecked Malia on her forehead and Malia nodded
"Bye senior Malia," They waved at her as they followed Kelly and Davina.
Finally, it remained just David, Malia, Rose, and Michel. Theo, Elle, and Isabel decided to follow them also.
"David, can you please get me table water, I need it to quench my thirst. You can get some porks too," Malia pleaded to David to her something
"Sure, I will be right back," David smiled and walked out.
Rose is using her cell phone to make a phone call.
"Please excuse me, I want to answer this call," Rose told Malia and Michel and walked out without waiting for their reply.
Immediately, Rose went out, it remained only just Malia and Michel. Malia looked Michel directly in the eye but he avoided her eyes.
"Michel," Malia called
"Malia," he called her name silently.
"Why are you avoiding me," she asked
"Me, I'm not avoiding you," he paused," who told you so,"
"Then why are you not able to look at me in the eyes," She quirked a brow
"Of course, I'm looking at you," he sighed
"You aren't looking at me dummy, but I'm not surprised because I have known you to be a coward," she shrugged
"What, a coward," He scoffed locking his eyes with her," I'm not a coward,"
"Now you are looking at me," she giggled and he sighed
"Malia, I'm sorry,"
"Why are you sorry, you haven't done anything to me at all,"
"I have done a lot of things to you and I don't mind if you hate me, I will continue to ask for your forgiveness just like you are trying to make me see that you ain't Rose murderer,"
"Is that why you have been avoiding me, huh,"
"Yes, since the time I have seen Roseland have known the truth, I have been having this guilty conscience in me and I can't rest or either look at you,"
"You don't have to because I don't hold anything against you, you have every right to hate me when all evidence points towards me,"
"But I should have...,"
"No, come closer," she gestured for him to come and he came towards her bed.
Malia held his hand and made him sit on the bed.
"I'm not angry with you because of everything you have done to make my life a living hell but instead I'm happy because the last few days you showed how good you are to me us enough to Forgive you and we should continue as we are,"
"As we are, like enemies," he frowned and she chuckled
"No, I mean the way we have been this past few days," she told him and he nodded
"But Malia why didn't you tell me you were the one that saved me that night," he asked
"I can't because you won't believe me. Two, you loved Rose because of that and I don't want you to stop and lastly, I don't want that to be the reason why you will stop hating me, I want it to be natural just like this last few days," she explained
"Hmm... Thank you for everything and for giving us a new chance to be friends," he smiled for the first time she has been here
"It is ok, I'm your friend anyway," she shrugged.
"But can I get a hug," she asked
"Of course, you will get a hug more than a million times," he chuckled
"Remember you are still my wife-to-be," he added
"That was then, Rose will have me dead," they laughed
"Then, I can get married to both of you,"
"Never, you and I can't get married," She smirked
"I used that word," he said
"Now, it is my turn you use it," she shrugged
