π€·πΉ A Search For True Love Chapter TWELVE:
Prince Derrick finally made it to school before sunset. He entered he and Stanley’s room but didn’t see Stanley
βWhere is he now?βHe muttered and stepped out looking for him
He was still walking through the halls when Mitchell stopped him
βJaden can I talk to you?βShe pleaded innocently
βI can’t talk now MitchellβHe replied trying to leave but she stopped him
βPlease just five minutesβ
He sighed
βFine. Five minutes and nothing moreβ
βThanksβ
She took him to the colleges’ hang out spot cause she knew Elena was there. Her plan was to make Elena jealous by seeing her with Jaden.
Jaden sat down with her oblivious of what she was up to. He didn’t even notice that Elena,Kira and Stanley were behind them.
βWhat is it that you want to talk about? Your time starts nowβ
βI just want to make a requestβ She started
βWhat request?β Jaden asked
βCan we be friends? Casual friends?β
βWhere are you driving at Mitchell? I don’t get your silly questionβ
βI want us to be friends. No strings attachedβ
βWhat were we before now?βJaden asked
βEnemiesβShe replied
βWhat? How?β
βYou never look at me or talk to me. Ever since Elena came,I’ve become nothing to youβShe started shedding crocodile tears
βIt’s not what you think MitchellβJaden said
βIt’s what I think Jaden. It’s not fairβ
When she saw that Elena had faced them,she held Jaden’s shirt and puts her head on his chest sobbing. Jaden tried pushing her away but she refused to let go.
βCalm downβJaden said and ruffled his hair
This was all his fault. He shouldn’t have agreed to follow her in the first place. Then he wouldn’t have been witnessing her drama right now.
He finally pulled her away from his chest
βHey put yourself together. We can be friends okay?βHe said and she nodded
When he stood up to leave,she hugged him not wanting to let go. Elena,Kira and Stanley came to them
βWhat’s wrong with almighty Mitchell?βElena asked sarcastically
βI really don’t know. She is being clingyβJaden replied in a frustrated tone
Mitchell observed Elena to see if Elena was jealous but couldn’t cause Elena looked normal. Even her posture was okay. No sign of jealousy or anger. She became disappointed and pulled from the hug
βAre you fine now?βKira asked mockingly
βShe looks fine to meβStanley said
βI’ll take my leave nowβShe left
Elena just shook her head and smiled. Who does she think she is,trying to make a princess jealous?
βSo where have you been misterβElena asked Jaden
Jaden wasn’t good at lying
βIβ¦I was umβ¦I wentβ¦em..IβHe stuttered
Stanley and Kira burst into laughter
βSeriously,just one question and you’ve turned into a stammererβElena laughed
He smiled
βAren’t you going to tell me?βShe asked
βI went to seeβ¦myβ¦grandma yes I went to see my grandmaβHe said hoping she’ll buy it
βYou’re lyingβShe said
βHow did you know?βStanley asked
βHis posture smelt tension and nervousnessβElena laughed
βWowβStanley exclaimed
βFine. I went to meet my dadβJaden said
βThat’s more like it. Now you’re telling the truthβShe said
βLet’s go guys. It’s getting lateβKira said
βYeah you’re rightβStanley said and they separated to their rooms.

JADEN AND STANLEY’S ROOM
Stanley plopped down on the sofa while Jaden sat on the bed
βSo what did the king say?βStanley asked
βHe insisted I bring the lady I want to marry before the end of this monthβJaden ruffled his hair
βTake Elena then. She’s perfectβ
βYeah but I don’t think she loves meβ
βI know she loves you Jaden. Do you see her associate with any other guy in this college?βStanley asked
βShe talks with ChrisβJaden answered
βOh pleaseβ¦Stanley waved it offβ¦she doesn’t like Chris,She likes youβ
βYou really think so?β
βI know so. And you better look for ways of keeping her. Show her through your actions that you feel the same too. Make her feel special then slowly and nicely,invite her to meet your fatherβ
βBut what if she finds out I’m Prince Derrick and gets angry that I lied to her?βJaden was worried
βThen explain your reasons to herβ
βOkay thanks dudeβ
βAnytimeβStanley smiled

βYes I do but I’m scaredβ
βScared of what my Princess?β
βWhat if he doesn’t love me back?β
βI’m sure he loves you. Have you seen the way he stares at you?β
βReally?β

MONDAY AFTERNOONβ¦
The sun shone bright and the halls were flooded with students going up and down in their swimming trunks. The Physical Education teacher,Ms Tasha just announced that there was gonna be swimming class that afternoon and Elena’s class were the first batch.
Elena was very nervous and didn’t know what to do. She paced to and fro in her room looking for an excuse to give.
βCalm down ElenaβKira patted her shoulder
βI’m nervous and I’m scared. I can’t swim,I can’t go thereβElena said
βI know but let’s think of something okay?β
βI’m too scared to think of anythingβ
βAlright what if we pretend that you’re sick and can’t go into the pool?βKira suggested
βThen they will take me to the school clinic for check up and discover nothing is wrong with meβElena said
βYeah that’s right. How about we follow them to the pool and you won’t go near it? You’ll stay amongst those that have done theirsβ
βWhat if she calls my name?β
βDon’t worry about that. I’ll help youβ
βThanks alot KiraβElena smiled
Just then,they heard a knock on the door
Elena went to open it and saw Mitchell
βMitchell? What are you doing here?βElena asked
βElena can I please talk to you? Alone?βMitchell asked innocently and Elena wondered what she was up to this time
βWhatever for?βShe asked
βJust come with me Elena. I have a lot to make up forβ
Elena saw tears in her eyes and felt for her
βOkay then. Where are we meeting?β
βWe’ll meet by the pool so that after our discussion,the swimming class may commenceβ
When Elena heard that it was at the pool,she shuddered but agreed cause she didn’t want Mitchell to see her weakness
βOkay let’s go. Kira,I’ll be at the poolβShe said
βHope you’ll be fine?βKira asked
βYesβ
βOkay be carefulβKira said
She smiled nervously and followed Mitchell to the pool. Unlike others,she wore jeans and top but Mitchell wore leggings and a crop top.
After they got to the pool,Elena looked at the water and fear gripped her which Mitchell didn’t fail to notice. She smiled mischievously and went on with her acting
βElenaβShe called
βYes?β
βI want to apologize for the way I’ve been treating you since you resumed here. I’m really sorryβ
Elena was shocked
βYou’re apologizing?β
βYes. It was foolish of me. I was just jealous of you. You had everything and even got Jaden’s attention. I’m sincerely sorryβShe starts crying
βIt’s okay please don’t cry. I forgive youβElena wanted to get all these over with and leave the pool. The view is making her legs tremble
βReally? You forgive me?βShe sniffles
βYes MitchellβShe smiled
βThank you,Thank you. You don’t know how relieved I amβ
βYou’re welcomeβ
βCan I hug you?βMitchell asked
βSureβElena spread her hands and Mitchell hugged her
In the process of hugging,Mitchell pretended to slip and fell into the pool dragging Elena in with her. Both of them splashed into the pool and Mitchell swum out while Elena struggled to get out.
Mitchell sat up looking at her in the water and smiled.
βShe will suffer before I call for helpβShe muttered
Elena was still in the water as the horror hit her. She became weak as many thoughts ran through her mind. The fear was too much that she had no strength to keep pushing.
She slowly closed her eyes and started drowning
