Guard My Heart

CHAPTER THREE

    "Bri?"
Jenna called-out for the forth time as Brianna has refused to talk since she had that mysterious phone call and to top it all up she looks so pale like she just saw a ghost or where as talked to a ghost
"Brianna talk to me, what wrong you are scaring me"
Jenna said as she bent down to reach the level of her best friend sitting on one of the wooden chairs in the dining
"How did he even get my number?"
Brianna asked as she met Jenna's gaze
"Who? Bri who?"
Jenna asked with fear in her voice
"Why now? Why did he have to come back to my life after so many years?"
Brianna said not losing gaze with Jenna
"How am I going to answer your questions if I don't know what you are talking about?"
Jenna asked
"My uncle Jenna, my uncle"
Brianna said as she put both her hands on Jenna's shoulders
"Wich uncle are you talking about? It can't be the same uncle you told me about?"
Jenna said as she hoped that Brianna wasn't going to give her the answer she didn't want to hear
"Yes Jenna the same uncle"
Brianna said as a teardrop fell to her cheek
"Richard"
They both said almost at the same time and at that time Brianna had already started crying as she buried her face in her knees
"It's okay don't let those bad memories come back to haunt you it's all in the past now and just pray he never calls back again, okay?"
Jenna said as she stroked brianna's head
"How am I supposed to know if he's going to call again or not"
"Just have faith okay? And besides my mom always says if you pray hard enough and with your hole heart God will Make it come true trust me"
Jenna said with a reassuring smile
"Well I'm not really the religious type but I'm going to take your mom's advice"
Brianna said as she returned Jenna's smile with a faint one
"Hmm you know what? Let's go to a party, a very lit party"
Jenna said as she stood up from her squatting position
"A party? Do you really think that's going to make me feel better? "
Brianna said as she looked up at her friend who was now standing before her
"Yes a party and did I mention it was going to be late? "
Jenna replied
"Hmm... I don't know "
Brianna said with concern in her voice
"Come on Bri, when was the last time you went to a party! "
Genesis as she took brianna's hands and dragged her up or tell her to stand
"Hmm your sister's wedding "
Brianna said with certainty in her voice
"Omg Bri, my sister's wedding was like 2 years ago is your life really that boring "
Jenna replied with a little bit of shock in her face
"My life isn't boring "
Brianna said I she plump her lips like a baby
"Then prove it by going to this party with me "
Jenna said
"Okay fine, but first who is even throwing this party? "
Brianna asked as she gave in into Jenna's idea
"It's Alex "
Jenna replied
"Wait, Alex? Like Alex Hart? "
Brianna said raising an eyebrow
"Yeah Alex Hart, is anything wrong? "
Jenna replied
"Yeah! That guy is a spoilt rich brat who thinks the world belongs to him"
Brianna said
"I know but his parties are always fun
And amazing and there's no way you go to any of Alex's party that you don't see a cute Guy"
Jenna said with a grin on her face
"Hmm okay let's lock up
