Jennifer's P.O.V.
It was almost midnight so we decided to leave that place. Its not safe for us girls to be there at a lonely place at late night.

Kate again drove me to a mysterious yet beautiful place. It was an old house. Crooked doors but a decent one. Neither too luxurious nor too simple. It was perfect.

"Now which place is this, sis?" I asked and she just dragged me inside.

"Remember coach Mike?" She asked switching the lights on.

Mike? Mike, oh coach Mike! Her boxing coach!

"Ahh your boxing.."

"Yeah my boxing coach." She interrupted me.

"He used to teach me boxing here. Its his house. He died last month and since he had no one after him, he gave the keys to me."

"Oh you didn't tell me he died." I said.

"What's the use? You don't even know him. And he was on the ventilator when he called me and handed me the keys. His few friends and me, we performed his funeral rites."

I just shook my head.

"But where's the gym? You learned boxing in here, in this living room?" I said looking around the whole room.

Again she dragged me with her to the gym. It was.. I have no words. It gives you a desire to learn boxing. That place had such vibes.

"Would you teach me boxing?" I asked with a shy smile.

Her head suddenly snapped in my direction and she looked at me with wide eyes.

"You said anything just now?" She asked in surprise.

"Yeah, I wanna learn boxing. Would you teach me? Be my coach, please."

She just fell in my arms and hugged me tight.

"Oh my gosh Jen. Are you serious? Like, seriously serious?" She gasped.

"Yeah babe, I'm seriously serious." I chuckled.

"Okay, be ready tomorrow at 5 am sharp. We'll start from tomorrow." She said.

"I'm so proud of you, Jen. I never thought a delicate and sensitive chick like you could even think of learning this sport." She said raising her eyebrows.

"Well if a hot chick can be rough and learn boxing, then why can't a delicate and sensitive chick not." I smirked and she chuckled patting my back.

My phone went off. We both looked at each other wondering who must be on the other side.

It was Christie.

"Put it on speaker." Kate said and I did the same.

"Jen, babe where are you both? We're worried for you. Please come back." Her voice was shaky.

I looked at Kate with hopeful eyes, mentally telling her to go back. But she just shook her head and I sighed. I can't see Christie in such condition. She loves us so much.

"Hi Christie, its Kate. Please calm down. Is there anyone else with you? Tell me the truth. You swear on Liam, ok."

"No its me only. There's nobody in here. Please Kate, I know Liam has lost it. But he's your brother, just give him some time. He's just frustrated due to much work. I know him, he loves you both a lot." I could hear her sniffles.

"I know Christie, we both know he needs time and we are giving him exactly that. We are safe. I promise you, we'll be back but not right now. Let Liam calm down and come to his senses. He must realize his mistake." Kate said. I was about to give up. I can't imagine her condition right now. Hope El, Avy and other boys just take care of her.
