Terry Terry

Chapter 5 "Jealousies and schemes..."

Some people wake up in the morning and they search for a way to make their lives better. Some people wake up in the morning to make their life and the lives of their loved ones better, some do it for their friends too... but there are some people who wake up just to find ways to make others feel bad. It was the case of Neil Reagan. He was a teenager who, instead of enjoying life with his friends, he was plotting revenge on his father's protégé. Getting grounded because he played a trick on him only fueled his anger toward Terry.

Terry finished his paper and he got ready to go pick up Nina and go for a drink in a café.

- Terry! She said happy and hugging him

- You're ready?

- Yes... thanks for all your help, she said smiling you're amazing

- You're very welcome

They went to a café and they ordered a big smoothie they were going to drink together with two straws. They were whispering drinking and smooching.

The three cousins were in town, looking for a new dress for the Saturday ball. Ashley saw Terry with his girlfriend by the window and she found a way to drag her sister and her cousin inside to buy a milkshake. Antonia saw Terry kissing Nina and she felt bad... she wanted to go back to the car, but Ashley spoke up!

- Look Tonia, there's Terry and his girlfriend! Said Ashley

Antonia's heart was ripped into shreds. Terry kissing his girlfriend! It hurts like hell! Ashley walked to them, Allyson and Antonia had no choice but to follow her.

- Hi Terry! Said Ashley with a big smile, is that Nina? Of course she is! You wouldn't be kissing her if she wasn't!

Terry looked at Ashley, he looked at Antonia who looked so hurt and Allyson was sad.

- The three cousins: Ashley Antonia and Allyson, said Terry, this is Nina...

- Hi, said Nina with a smile

- Hi, said the girls...

- You all go to school together? Asked Nina

- Yes, said Ashley, Terry lives at our cousins'...

- Oh, said Nina

- Did he tell you we have a ball on Saturday night at the Andrew Mansion? We told him you were invited too...

- Really? Said Nina, Terry...?

- Well... I didn't get the chance to tell you, said Terry looking at Ashley with mean eyes, I was going to ask you for your plans for Saturday night

- I have nothing that's going to beat a ball at the Andrew Mansion! Said Nina smiling

- So you can come with me? Said Terry

- Of course baby! Said Nina kissing him, thank you so much for inviting me, she added looking at Ashley with a smile, that's so nice of you!

- You're very welcome! Said Ashley, I'll see you in school, Terry and Nina... see you Saturday!

- Bye, said Nina

- Bye, said Terry...

- Bye, said Antonia and Allyson

The three cousins left and Terry felt a little uncomfortable.

- Terry... you wanted to invite me right? Asked Nina

- Of course! He said

- Why did it seem like that girl was forcing your hand...?

- Because she put me on the spot! I don't like that...but I was going to ask you to come with me...
