His Immense Desires novel Chapter 28

THE SHATTERING NEWS

****JANELLE'S POV****

I was already on my way to the house, I decided I had to come early if I wanted to meet up on time for the Sunday Service.

My mind replayed to what happened between Steff and I, but after some thinking I shrugged it off.

I was still in the car, I didn't know that i was already in front of my family house, I was lost in my thoughts.

"Madam please we have reached", those were the words that brought me out from my thoughts.

I brought my head slowly to the window and looked around the environment, "not much changes though", I thought.

I came down from the Uber, the price had already been paid, because I booked for it.

I paid him and gingerly left for the gate, I knocked and it was opened by a new gateman.

"Ma'am please who are you looking for?", He asked.

"I am Janelle....", "Okay it's you that Diaz is always talking about, so sorry ma'am, I didn't know you are his sister", he said.

I paused took a deep breath and said, "you don't have to be sorry, you were only doing your job, afterall you don't really know me, you are a new recruit", I told him.

"Anyways are they all inside or they have gone for Sunday Service?", I asked.

"No ma, they are all inside, I am surprised that they are still around, maybe it's you that they are all waiting for", he said.

I nodded, thanked him and entered the house.

The house was unusually silent, normally, you would hear the rise of voices from my Dad and Mum arguing over unreasonable stuffs, but to day was so different.

I heard the clattering of plates and spoons, I headed for the dinning table immediately, I started tiptoeing wanting to give them a surprise.

"Boom", I said, as I screamed.

My younger brother shrieked and looked up at me, he came down from his chair and ran towards me to hug me.

"Ohhh Diaz, let me go, you are gonna fall for, and I know you don't want that to happen", I said while ruffling his hair in my hands.

"That's just what I plan on doing, to let you fall, damnnnn sis, you just forgot me, it's really been long"

"Yeah I know Diaz, that's why I decided to come see you, just you special boy", I said as I pinched the tip of his nose.

He gave a loud shriek and pushed me off.

"Come here girl", that was the voice of my Dad. I rushed over immediately and pressed myself to his back with my both hands tangled around his neck.

"I missed you Dad, school has been tiresome that's why I haven't the...."

"Yeah, it's really been tiresome and stressful, that I know, what else do you have to say about school.

It also made you bashfully erotic huhh", my mum said.

I laughed at her words, "mum not bashfully erotic, please, everything I said but erotic", I countered.

"Yeah, you are looking so grown up, looking so grown and riped like a banana that is due to be plucked", she continued.

"Mum??, What are you saying", I asked her.

I could feel tension, her face looked so pale as she frowned.

"Enough with the pretence Janelle!!, You think I don't know what you have been doing at school?.

Do you think my eyes haven't been on you?", She asked.

"Mum!, Have you started stalking me, trying to know where I am, who I am with, and what I am doing?", I asked.
