Chapter Fourteen - Forevermore

**JADE's POV**

"Mum, dad, I'm going to my close friend's party."

It's been a few minutes since Darren dropped me here in my house. I'm all dressed in my PJs and I'm here in my mum and dad's room, explaining to them what'll I do tomorrow.

I hate lying.

"Whose party?" mum asked with a brow arched up, sitting on their bed drinking a glass of milk.

I tried my best to come up with a classmate's name and said, "Cassandra." I was able to hold my feeling of guilt.

"Cassandra who?" Dad asked, pulling down his phone for him to see my face.

Ugh, they're asking too many questions.

"Cassandra Kendler. You know, the British girl who was my seatmate at third grade?" I replied. Gosh, that was years ago. They've probably forgotten who that chick is.

She's actually my enemy. Not a close friend.

"Oh that blue-eyed girl?" mum's mouth curved up into a smile, remembering that girl. I just love Cassandra's eyes and accent. If I was a boy, she'd be so attractive if you ask me. "But isn't she the girl who fought you for breaking her doll's leg? I thought you guys hate each other."

Oh no. Here comes.

Think of a reason, Jade. Think! "That was last time, mum. We're friends now, close friends to be exact. She invites me to eat with her every lunch." I was able to muster a smile, but I'm afraid it won't last long.

"What time will the party end?" Dad questioned, bringing his presence in.

"From three-thirty to eight. C'mon, dad, mum! It's her thirteenth birthday! No one must miss it!" I sounded like I begged for their 'yes'. Hm, I guess the last part was just an exaggeration. But nah.

Dad looked at mum for a while, and faced me. "Are you sure?" He raised a brow, his gaze killing me.

They're really making me nervous and guilty.

"Yes! C'mon, please? Pretty please??" this time, I glued both of my hands together in a praying position, and pleaded.

They looked at each other for a moment as if they're communicating with their eyes and turned to me. "Okay." dad announced as I did my happy dance. "Kuya Lance will drive and fetch you there. Be sure to go home before--"

I immediately cut in between dad's sentence. No, there's no way my driver is driving me there. I don't even know where Cassandra's house is! Even the beach Darren's referring to! And I can't trust my driver in telling about it, can I?

"No need, dad. Darren's driving me." I instantly regretted after mentioning Darren's name. Dang, another mistake.

Mum's starting to smirk. "Ooh. I'm starting to get suspicious about you and Darren." She's giving me a look as if I found my boyfriend and It's seriously making my nerves broken. Damn. "Are you two going out?"
