Chapter 67 & 68 : Love and Rivalry
His sleepy eyes widened at the so called bride, even the bride stood in shock.
” Ramona?”
” Miguel!”
They said simultaneously.
” What the hell are you doing here!!” Miguel half yelled, coming out of his sleepiness.
” Dad, have you been talking about Miguel?” Ramona faced them.
” Obviously, he is Mr Knight’s second son.” Mr Rodrigo said.
” We are students at college..I can’t get married to him, he is just a friend.” Ramona refused.
” Then that’s perfect, since you two are friends and you go to the same college, it wouldn’t take time for you to get along well, right?” Mr Knight said and Mr Rodrigo smiled at him.
” Of course, Ramona and Miguel you two make a great couple.” Mr Rodrigo said, glaring at Ramona to act well.
Ramona sigh and faked a smile.
” Can I see her for a while.. privately?” Miguel asked and they nodded.
Miguel held her hand and dragged her with him upstairs, when they got to the corridor they stopped.
” What’s all this, you of all people knows well that I love Mona and if there’s someone I would like to marry then it’s her!” Miguel stated, Ramona folded her hands under br**st as something crept up her mind.
I couldn’t get you then, I think this is the right time. Reece is far away from me, we will get married anyways before he knows.* She said inwardly and smirk.
” Maybe I really want to get married to you, let’s do this hmm.” She said walking towards him in a kind of… seductive manner and Miguel shifted back confused.
” What..what on earth are you talking about, I thought you’ve forgotten about me and.. Reece is your boyfriend isn’t it?” Miguel said.
” Yes he is, but I don’t even love him. I want you and this wedding will happen. The few days we have let’s use it well okay.” Ramona said and patted his chest, she flash him a smile and turn to go.
Miguel got out of his confused state of mind and stared at her retreating figure.
” What the..I thought she changed already, what do I do.” He muttered, roughing his hand through his hair.
He waited for a while before going to join the family and the discussion started.
New York ~ Crestwood college •
Reece was looking around the whole school, more like he was looking for someone. The students stared at him weirdly but still they mind their business.
He was searching around when he bumped into someone… Barbie!
” Hey, have you seen Ramona?” He immediately asked.
” I was about asking you the same, he hasn’t come to school since yesterday. Am kinda worried.” Barbie said.
” I even went to her house, only her sis was home.” Reece muttered but Barbie heard him.
” Since you claim you are her boyfriend, you’re to know your girlfriend’s whereabouts isn’t it? She didn’t call you?” Barbie teased and Reece eyes her.
” Mind your business.” He said angrily and walk out on her.
Barbie scoffed and brought out her phone to give Ramona a call.
” I don’t like him one bit.” She muttered, almost immediately Ramona answered the call.
” Hey babe, where are you. You haven’t come to college since yesterday. Are you okay, you aren’t even home.” Barbie said and Ramona sigh at the other end.
” How do I even say this… My parents set up my marriage with some kind of stranger and the stranger turned out to be Miguel!” Ramona briefly explained and Barbie gasped.
” Miguel? How so.?”
” You won’t believe this but Miguel is Daniel Knight’s son.” Ramona said and once again Barbie gasped in surprise.
” What!!! How is that possible, Daniel Knight? Is it the same Daniel Knight, how can Miguel be his son. Frederick is his only son right?” Barbie said trying to process the whole thing.
” I don’t even know anything about it.. but right now I need to go, a lot is happening here. Bye.”
” Bye.” They ended the call but Barbie still stood surprised.
” Miguel? Daniel Knight?” She muttered walking to the next class. She still can’t believe he is his son.
Monalisa’s apartment •
Lisa heard the doorbell and knew it was Miguel, she excitedly went to open it and immediately engulfed him in a hug.
” How are you.” Miguel smiled, kissing her lips.
” Am fine.. it’s quite less boring for me ever since that ice cream truck is there.” Lisa said and Miguel frowned.
” What do you mean?”
” I mean the guy, Michael is so funny. He has a good sense of humour and he seldomly keeps my company before he leaves…” She was explaining but stopped when she noticed Miguel’s face expression.
” What’s wrong?” She asked but he didn’t respond, instead he turn his back on her and immediately Lisa understood.
” Hmm, someone’s jealous.” She teased and Miguel faced her.
” You stay with him all day? How sure are you that he’s a good guy, he might be planning to win you over. You have to let him know you have a boyfriend.. handsome one infact, he doesn’t have a chance..”
” Calm down..calm down, oh my Knight. You look so cute, I love you so much.” Lisa said kissing his cheek.
” Am telling you the truth okay?” Miguel said.
” Of course,I know. Trust me, Micheal means no harm. He knows I have a boyfriend and he’s just a friend okay? He only keep my company.” Lisa said but Miguel still faked a smile.
” Common, okay. I’ll stop going to his place okay.” Lisa said.
” No no, I don’t want you to stop taking ice cream. It’s fine if you guys talk but..be careful around him okay?” Miguel said and Lisa chuckled, how much she loves this guy in front of her..so cute.
” I will okay..my cute Mr Knight.” Lisa said and Miguel finally smiled as they hugged tightly.
Miguel’s phone suddenly started ringing and they had to break the hug.
Miguel cleared his throat and stood up to take the call.. it’s Ramona.
” Hey, your Dad want us to go on a date to have some time together. You need to come back home.” Ramona said over the phone.
” Just send me the address of the location, I’ll just go there. Not coming home.” Miguel replied.
” But..”
” Will you do just that?” Miguel cuts in and Ramona sigh
” Fine!” She end the call and Miguel sigh.
Miguel turn and saw Lisa behind him.
” Who was that?” Lisa asked and Miguel faked a smile.
I don’t want to lie to you.. but I’ll have to do that now.* Miguel inwardly and walk to her.
” It was ..umm Frederick.” He said and Lisa nodded though she’s still suspicious.
” Common let’s go back.” Miguel said.
” Would you like to have some food?” Lisa asked.
” Of course.. I’ll right back, need to use the restroom.” Miguel said and dropped his phone on the kitchen counter.
He left and Lisa look at Miguel’s phone. She sigh and turn to start preparing food when she heard a ding on his phone.
She didn’t want to turn but her legs betrayed her as she found herself looking in his phone.
She saw the message on his home screen.
Ramona: BK MAIN RESTAURANT, 5pm sharp. I will….
She couldn’t see the rest of the message, she furrowed her brows as everything confused her.
What’s Ramona doing here?
Why does she want to meet Miguel?
What have they been doing?
What’s going on?
Those questions filled her head as she started preparing the food.
Miguel came back and went to join her, he checked his phone and saw the message. He gaze at Lisa before he sigh.
He joined her in the kitchen as they cooked and ate together with smile on their faces though Lisa couldn’t help but let curiousity get the best of her.
5pm~ BK MAIN RESTAURANT •
Miguel entered the classic restaurant and saw Ramona sitted on the chairs, she was dressed in a long Purple gown that has a slit starting from her knee.
Her make-up was also pretty as Miguel wondered the need for all this. He went to her and sat down.
” Hey, you’re late.” Ramona said as she noticed his presence.
” What’s the need for all this?” Miguel found himself asking, her words earlier still surprising him.
” Mom dressed me up and I had no choice to comply. Be careful, Mr Knight’s men are around.” Ramona said and Miguel looked outside the window, true to her words they were present.. like five of them.
” What’s this date about, it’s boring. We know each other already.” Miguel said relaxing on the chair.
Ramona signalled with her hands as workers started coming towards them with a wheel of foods as everything were placed on their table.
A man also started playing small violin. Miguel scoffed at the scenerio.
Lisa got of out the cab with mask on, she look up at the restaurant and nodded.
She started going on and there she saw them, she became angrily as she clenched her fist, walking towards them.
” I need to..”
” What’s going on here?” Miguel was stopped abruptly when he heard that voice.
He stood up and Ramona rolled her eyes.
” Mona..I can explain okay?” Miguel said trying to convince.
” I said what’s the fvck is going on here!!!” She yelled.
Chapter 69 & 70 – A New Chapter: Monalisa, Miguel, and Ramona’s Future
Miguel immediately moved closer to her but she shifted back.
” You tell me, when have she been here. When have you two been seeing each other like this, why didn’t you tell me anything. Why!!” Lisa shouted earning looks from other customers.
” Mona, please listen to me. I meant to explain everything but I couldn’t bring it up to you just like that, I couldn’t Mona. Am so sorry, please give me a chance to explain please.” Miguel said moving close to her again.
” And you, why aren’t you with your boyfriend huh? You left him and came to my boyfriend. Aren’t you ashamed of yourself, I thought you changed!!” Lisa yelled at Ramona and she stood up angrily.
” You have no right to yell at me, because I am going to be his legal wife. We are getting married, get that?” Ramona said to her face and Lisa staggered back.
” Ramona!!” Miguel yelled but Ramona just rolled her eyes, sitting back on the chair taking a sip from her wine.
” What..ma..marriage?” Lisa stuttered in utter shock.
” Mona, please listen to me. It’s not what it is, that’s not the case.” Miguel tried to convince, holding unto her hands, Lisa yanked his hand off and started running out of the restaurant.
Miguel made to follow her but Ramona stopped him.
” Think carefully again, the guards are outside.. watching us.” Ramona said with a smirk and Miguel faced her angrily.
” To heck with your words and to heck with father’s guards.” Miguel said and walk out of the restaurant.
Ramona scoffed and stood up too.
Miguel got to one of car’s brought by the guards. He stood in front of one of them.
” Where’s the key?” He asked.
” Sorry, we are only allowed to take you back home.” The guard said and Miguel scoffed.
” It’s two ways, if you give me the keys, my dad might fire you. But in the second way, I will make sure you get fired, get thrashed right here and never be able to be a body guard ever again. It’s your turn to choose.” Miguel said and pocketed his hand.
The guard stayed quiet for a while before he gulped and gave him the key. Miguel smirked.
” Good choice.” Miguel patted his broad shoulder and drove off in the car.
He drove to Lisa’s apartment and knocked on the door.
” Who’s there?” Lisa inquired before she opened the door but she closed them back almost immediately.
Miguel could see dey tears on her face.
” Am such a jerk.” He muttered.
” Mona, please give me a chance to explain. You know I would never do such a thing. Please Mona, I never meant to meet with Ramona this way.. without informing you. Let me explain it all, please Mona.” Miguel said banging on the door.
Lisa opened the door and Miguel immediately entered.
” You have less minutes to explain whatever you want to say.” Lisa said and backed him, folding her arms.
” I found out recently that Dad wants me to get married to the daughter of one of his business partners which turned out to be Ramona, he threatened me with you. I had no choice.” Miguel said and Lisa faced him.
” Are you really going to get married to her?” She asked.
” No never, I made it clear to her that I want you and only you. But I have something in mind that’s why I agreed to the marriage.” Miguel said and Lisa raised a brow.
” Tell me about it.”
New York ~ Crestwood college •
Kaylee breathe in and out, standing at the entrance of the triple diamonds suite.
Like why would Kelvin even called her here..she sigh and just opened the door.
She opened her mouth wide in surprise, there’s a party going on here.. like what? The suite is currently soundproof.
Those who knows came while some didn’t. The place is currently buzzing with music.
” Now who organize this again?” She questioned herself.
Someone touched her shoulder from the back and she freaked out a little before she calmed down.
” Kelvin, why would you call me here. Who organized this?” She asked and Kelvin smiled.
” Jayden I think, just wanted to have some fun. Come here.” Kelvin held her hand and took her to the back . They settled down on a couch.
” Do you want anything?” Kelvin asked and Kaylee shaked her head.
Kelvin was about talking when Rosie sat besides him..
” Hey Kelvin.” She smiled and Kelvin rolled her eyes.
” Hi.” He replied shortly and faced Kaylee but Rosie touched his shoulder and Kaylee frowned.
” Your hands off.” Kelvin said in a serious tone and Rosie immediately took it off.
” Wanna dance?” She asked again.
” As you can see Rosie, he is with me. You can’t just come here and ask for a dance. Not done.” Kaylee shipped in and Rosie frowned.
” I wasn’t talking to you last time I checked, who are you to say that..”
” His girlfriend.” Kaylee replied and Kelvin looked at her.
Wow.
” That’s a lie, you btch. It’s a lie.” Rosie fumed standing up. ” You heard her, and I think you’re the real btch here, forcing yourself on a man. What do you think that’s it, now leave before I lose it.” Kelvin warned and Rosie fumed the more.
She stormed out of their presence instantly.
” Now what was that?” Kelvin asked and Kaylee looked away.
” Don’t look away, are you my girlfriend now?” He asked again.
” You haven’t asked me out and you didn’t you love me, so I don’t think I am.” Kaylee replied and Kelvin chuckled.
” Gosh, what was I thinking since these days. I need to do that as soon as possible, in a special way.” Kelvin said and Kaylee laughed.
Somewhere in the suite, Tiana can be seen with Jayden. Their moments were interrupted with the ringing of Tiana’s phone.
” Hey Lisa, how are you.” She squealed happily.
” Am fine..I really need your help.” Lisa explained it all and Tiana nodded. She spotted Alvin at the Wine cellar and went to him together with Jayden.
” Alvin, Lisa needs you.” She said and Alvin sat up straight.
Days passed and the two families believe that they ( Miguel and Ramona) have gotten along well.
It is finally the day of the wedding which is taking place at the biggest event hall, famous business mens and women were present.
The wedding was on going. The vow is taking place. Though the bride’s face was covered with veil.
” Do you Miguel Knight, take Ramona Rodrigo as your lawfully wedded wife..in time of good and bad, in happiness and sorrow, to comfort each other.” The priest said.
Not Ramona, definitely.* Miguel said inwardly.
” Yes I do.” Miguel said and the crowd cheered and clapped.
” Do you Ramona Rodrigo, take Miguel Knight as your lawfully wedded husband..in time of good and bad, in happiness and sorrow, in dry and rainy seasons.. to comfort each other.” The priest said again.
Not Ramona.*
” Yes, I do.” The crowd cheered again.
” You can now lift the veil and kiss the bride.”
The crowd kept clapping and cheering them, eager for the kiss.
Miguel moved closer and unveiled the veil slowly. Everyone’s eyes widened upon seeing the so called bride.. Monalisa.
” Where is my daughter, what’s going on.”
… what’s happening here
.. that’s not the bride.
Mindless of the murmuring or chaos going on, Miguel grabbed Lisa’s waist slamming his lips on hers.
Jaws dropped and their eyes almost came of the socket.
Chapter 71 & 72 {FINALE} : The Journey of Friendship, Love, and Acceptance
” Miguel, what on earth is going on here?!!” Mr Knight yelled but Miguel didn’t broke the kiss, Lisa tried to break it but Miguel held her tightly.
” Where’s my Ramona, where’s my daughter!” Mrs Rodrigo yelled again.
Mariana scoffed and rolled her eyes…her daughter?!
She was there, dressed in a white tight long gown, her hair down which looks beautiful with her pretty makeup. She’s literally happy that Ramona isn’t the bride.
Miguel finally break the kiss and faced the crowd, most especially those reporters.
” Hey media, meet my wife.. MONALISA MIGUEL KNIGHT. Beautiful isn’t it? And also I guess you guys heard the wrong thing, I wasn’t going to get married to Ramona.. it’s been her since day one, hope you guys can bring good news to your people. Thanks.” He said, Lisa was just looking at him.
” Everyone, thanks for coming to my wedding. I really appreciate you all, I think it’s best if you guys leave. We would like to have some family meeting right here, thank you so much.” Miguel said and the crowd started dispersing, not without murmuring.
Some congratulated Mr and Mrs Knight, even though it’s not genuine.
Monalisa mind went to what happened yesterday to today, she smiled about their worked out plan.. Miguel’s plan.
Flashback to yesterday •
As soon as Tiana told Alvin that Lisa needs him, she hesitated a bit but when both Lisa and Miguel told him it’s about Ramona…he didn’t waste time.
Tiana alongside Alvin, Jayden, Kaylee, George, Kelvin decided to go to Paris according to Lisa and Miguel’s instruction. George took Claire along though. Wonder why..
They got to Paris before the Ramona could go to the hall..
Ramona was already set and ready in her beautiful long wedding gown, still in the room when Lisa and Miguel came in.
” Miguel, what are you doing here..you are supposed to be at the… what’s she doing here also.” Ramona asked angrily upon sighting Lisa.
” You should know that I can’t get married to you right.” Miguel said and Ramona raised her brows.
” What do you mean, today is the day right..and .I can see you’re already dressed up, so..”
” Am getting married to Mona instead..that gown you’re wearing belong to her.” Miguel said and Ramona chuckled.
” Are you kidding me… like are you joking? I should give my wedding gown to her..never it’s not happening, am getting married to you and no one else!!” Ramona shouted.
” Says who..” Alvin said as him and the rest entered.
Ramona was confused, what’s going on.
Alvin took a picture of her and all eyes turned to him.
” Give us some moments.” Alvin said looking at Ramona intently.
” What are you going to do, you think she’s going to agree so easily.” Lisa said.
” Trust me..you should get ready to put on your wedding gown.” Alvin said and smiled at Lisa.
She smiled back as they left the room.
” What do you think you are doing, am getting married to Miguel and no one else, trust me when I say that.” Ramona said with a glare and Alvin smiled.
” Not on my watch pretty…you see this picture, am sending it to Reece and trust me when I say that when he sees it, he is going to take the possible flight to Paris immediately and stopped your wedding half way.” Alvin said and Ramona swallowed nothing.
” And you know the interesting part, when you try to prove stubborn..your secret, he is going to expose it to everyone..which I already knew.” Ramona’s eyes widened.
” You…you.. already knew? I…I didn’t mean to..kill him..I didn’t kill him, it’s wasn’t me..I swear..I haven’t even touched him..I …”
Alvin’s eyes widened.. what, Ramona killed a human? He didn’t even know the secret before, he just wanted her to accept.
” You killed someone?” Alvin asked unbelievably.
Ramona broke down into tears and sat on the bed.
” I didn’t do it, I swear.” She said amidst tears.
Alvin sigh, tearing not to believe his ears. He sat besides her on the hug and look at her for a while before he hug him, she hug him back without delay and cried in his chest.
” It’s okay, I know you didn’t do it. You would never kill someone. I’ll get to the root of this.” Alvin said consolingly.
After a while, Ramona stopped crying and stood up.
” Call her in.” She said wiping away her tears.
” Huh?”
” I would like to get Lisa ready myself, please call her in.” She said with a smile, and Alvin smiled also hugging her again.
” Thanks Ramona, I love you so much.” Alvin said before he could stopped himself.
He broke the hug abruptly, clearing his throat.
” I’ll..I’ll go call her in.” He left to go to the rest.
” She agreed, she want to get you ready herself.” He announced to them.
The look on their faces was on unreadable.
” She agreed, that easily!” Jayden and Kelvin said at once.
” What did you do, are you two perhaps hiding something, hmm.” Miguel teased and they chuckled.
” It will be best if we don’t make her change her mind, go in quick.” Alvin said and Lisa nodded, feeling happy.
She opened the door slowly and met Ramona sitting on the bed, she stood up when Lisa came in.
She already got out of the wedding dress and changed into something simple and also got rid of the accessories.
” Let’s get to work, shall we? The ceremony will start soon.” Ramona said and Lisa could only nodded.
She sat down slowly still surprised at Ramona’s change of attitude.
” Thank you.” She said but got no reply. She just smiled but Lisa could see through the mirror, she smiled back.
Flashback Ends•
The unending questions were still ongoing as they tried to settle the matter.
” My baby.” Mrs Joanna said coming in, to hug Monalisa.
” I can’t you just got married.” She said again, Lisa hugged her back.
” Sandra?” Mrs Joanna heard her name and she turned only to meet with Mr Rodrigo.
They both wore on a surprised look, that was when the rest came in, Ramona, Alvin, Tiana, Jayden, Kelvin, Kaylee, George and Claire.
” Do..do you two know each other?” Lisa asked.
” What’s going on here, how did you know her?” Mrs Rodrigo asked facing her husband.
” She.. she is…she was…” Mr Rodrigo stammered, not knowing how to put the words.
” He was my husband!!” Mrs Joanna dropped the bombshell and everyone’s eyes widened.
” What do you mean mom?” Lisa said, unbelievably.
” Dad, what are you saying?” Ramona said and all eyes turned to her.
” You, your case is for another day. We need to know what’s going on now!” Mrs Rodrigo said angrily.
” Lisa, he…he is your father!!” Mrs Joanna said again.
What!!!!
” What? How is that possible, does…does that mean that.. Lisa is my..step.. sister?” Ramona stammered.
” Mom, what are you saying. This is not possible okay? I and Ramona can’t possibly be sisters, no it’s not!!” Lisa shouted, not believing the breaking news.
A while later, they all are at Knight’s Mansion. All shocked and confused, after Mrs Joanna finished explaining.
” I have been enemies with my sister. No no.” Ramona muttered, tears streaming down her face including Monalisa.
” Mom, how can you hide such a thing from me, why!!” Lisa shouted.
” So what are you trying to do by revealing this, you want to be back with him huh!” Mrs Rodrigo suddenly yelled and Mrs Joanna stood up angrily.
” Am not interested in your husband, we have been separated years ago. I don’t want anything to do with him, I have been taking care of my daughter myself, do you think I’ll need his help now.” Mrs Joanna yelled back.
” The only thing you all should be doing is reuniting, at least the sisters got to know their real identity.” Mr Knight chipped in.
Ramona and Monalisa looked at themselves, Ramona was the first to stand up and Lisa did too.
” You do know am your older sister right? So you have to listen to me, let end whatever fight between us. Thank goodness, I dressed you up for your wedding, can’t believe you got married before me.” Ramona said and Lisa chuckled.
” I am your older sister, not you.” Lisa said.
” Really? That’s not… wait, oh yes you are.” Ramona said and they laughed.
” Alvin is busy waiting for you, I’ll dress you up too, promise.” Lisa said and they both smiled.
They stared at each other for a while and then they hugged.
” Sis wouldn’t sound awkward right?” Lisa said as they broke the hug.
” No, it wouldn’t.” Ramona answered and they both laughed.
” Hmmm, seems the sisters had forgotten about their youngest sister.” Mariana said, and they look at her.
” Come here, little sis.” Lisa said and Mariana immediately ran to them.
They hugged each other.
Miguel and the rest smile at the three, but Miguel’s eyes only on his new wedded wife.
They’re really married.
A year later ~ Crestwood college •
Today’s the last day of final exam for the last level students. After the paper, the students troop out with excitement.
After this, a party will be arranged for them. A farewell party.
Miguel, Alvin, George, Claire, Jayden and Kelvin will be leaving college soon and they’re so happy about it. They’re all headed to the triple diamonds suite.
As they walked by, the students murmured. Still can’t believe Miguel’s already part of them and the latest news about the ones dating.
They don’t know about the wedding though.
Claire and George’s hand were interlocked together, a year ago they got really along together thanks to George and now they improve their relationship.
” Where do you think you are all going without us.” Someone said from the back and smacked Alvin’s head.
It’s Ramona, she’s with Lisa, Tiana, Barbie and Kaylee. Tiana immediately went to Jayden while Kaylee to Kelvin.
Barbie finally gave up on Jayden, it hurt her alot but she had to let go.
” Hey pretty, why smack my head.. it’s really hot in there, the exam took effort trust me.” Alvin groaned.
” Don’t worry, it will be gone by tomorrow. Just let us get home.” Ramona winked and they all laughed.
” Woah woah, Ramona. Take it easy.” Miguel said and they laughed again.
Where’s Reece you might be wondering?
Alvin made sure to get to the root of the matter, luckily he has a friend who works at the hotel the incident took place. His friend helped him with the CCTV camera and sent the footage to him, which was still on the memory luckily.
It was Reece that planned the attack, he told the guy to go to Ramona and tried to harm her but before Ramona could even do anything, the guy collapsed on her.
Ramona thought he was dead, Reece entered at that moment and took a picture and since that day, he had been using the picture to threaten her.
Turns out the guy didn’t even died but faked it according to Reece’s instruction, Alvin made sure he got arrested.
And now, he is in jail.
They arrived at the suite and they all slumped on the sofas and couches tiredly.
” Am so tired..” Kaylee mumbled.
” Can’t believe you guys will be leaving soon.” Lisa said sadly and that’s when their mind went to it.
” It’s not a big deal, you all will also be graduating next year right, it’s still manageable.” Alvin said and they chuckled.
” You all shouldn’t leave the city for any kind of business okay? We will have to stay together.” Lisa said holding Miguel’s hand.
Alvin’s mood changed hearing that, which Ramona noticed.
” What, Alvin don’t tell me you’re going to leave after college.” Ramona said.
Alvin kept quiet for a while. He had a promise after all.
” My Dad want me to take over his business in both Thailand and Japan, I will have to leave the country, not only the city.” Alvin said sadly.
” Oh no.”
” But Alvin, you have never really wanted to join your dad in his business right?” Jayden asked.
” What changed?” Kelvin added.
” We are friends now, this shouldn’t be personal again. My mom and Dad aren’t really in a good terms so my dad cut short the means of my mom doing anything, I really want to help mom. I have to take over those businesses and help Dad, for the meanwhile. I am even planning on making my mom the CEO of one of the companies once am the legal owner, then I will have the right to do that.” Alvin explained and they all sigh.
” It’s fine Alvin, that’s a good idea. Do what your heart tells you, we are all here and we will support you.” Miguel said and they all nodded in agreement.
Ramona just stood up and went to the kitchen moody.
” You should follow her.” George said and he immediately stood up.
Alvin met Ramona with her arms folded. He sigh and stood before her. Taking her hand into his, he made her look at him.
” Am not going to leave forever, I promise.” Alvin said but she didn’t talk.
” I promise you, on the day of your graduation I will be right here for you. I’ll leave whatever I am doing and come straight to you, I will never leave you trust me.” Alvin said and the tears Ramona had been holding back, fell freely from her eyes and Alvin immediately hugged her.
” That’s a promise okay and… I’ll..I will wait for you, I won’t fall for any other guy except you.” Ramona said and Alvin chuckled.
” How would you when I will mark you as mine… please wait for me Pretty, just a year and I’ll be back to you.” Alvin said and Ramona hugged him more.
” Awnnnn, their love just keep growing.” Tiana said.
” Tiana, don’t worry. I’ll stay with you till your graduation okay, you can come live at my house.” Jayden said and Tiana looked at him.
” Really, you have a house?”
” Yes, and we will live together till your graduation and then leave to California after that, you know to meet your future inlaw again before coming back here.” Jayden said and Tiana hugged him.
” Of course.” She said. Jayden remembered Ryan’s word and smile.
” We are forever, I love you.” George said and Claire smiled.
” I love you too.” She said.
” It’s time to meet my parents too cutie.” Kelvin said and Kaylee smiled, she looked at the rest before standing on her toe and kissed him.
Kelvin smiled and held her to himself.
” Get us a room please, we will be back.” Miguel said and everyone looked at him.
” Come on, just do that.” Miguel said again and everyone faked a cough
” Okay, as you wish…. the second room on your right, you can use that one.” Kelvin replied and he nodded.
” Thanks.”
” Be careful sis.” Ramona said to Lisa and she smiled.
” So lonely, I don’t have a boyfriend.” They suddenly heard someone cry and they faced back to see Barbie who made a sad but funny face and they all burst into laughter.
” He is on his way don’t worry.” Lisa said and Barbie frowned instead.
” When on earth will he be here.” She said again with a fake cry and they all laughed.
Lisa and Miguel left to the room, he locked the door.
” Consider this our first night after marriage.” Miguel said and Lisa bit her lips shyly.
Miguel spotted three oil lamps and smiled, he lit it up and place it in a good corners and then turned off the light.
The room was now dimly lit as Miguel walked over to Lisa and started kissing her neck.
Lisa tried to suppress her moan as Miguel claim her lips. They laid on the bed as Miguel was on top of her.
” I’ll always love you.” Miguel said but Lisa didn’t bother replying and Miguel started taking off his clothes and her clothes.
And the rest completed their marriage.
Two days later, the graduation party was held and everyone attended. But after that, the ones leaving had to leave while the rest stayed.
The girls except Claire are the ones still in college now, Alvin already marked Ramona as his and no one dared come close to her, and even Lisa, Kaylee and Tiana.
Crazy.
They missed them, especially Ramona, she misses Alvin a lot. Though the rest still their respective boyfriend.
A year later ~ Graduation party •
Lisa, Ramona, Tiana, Kaylee and Barbie will be graduating today. And here they are expecting their boyfriends.
” Where the heck are they?” Ramona said.
” Calm down sis.” Lisa said and Ramona sigh.
” It’s time for the speech.” Kaylee announced and they all went to take a seat.
” We congratulate all the graduating students and we wish them luck in their various fields of life they have chosen. The time spent in Crestwood college, we appreciate them all and you all appreciate your professors, Crestwood college are proud to have you all. You all did better than the previous year graduating students.” The provost said and a clap erupted among the students.
” These are the list of the amazing students that will be leaving Crestwood to an amazing future.. Zoey Holloway, Eric Williams, Monalisa Rodrigo, Ramona Rodrigo, Tiana Santiago….”
The rest of the names was called and a speech was made by one of the students, now they’re left to enjoy the party.
” I thought the boys said they’re coming.” Kaylee said sadly.
” I’ll give Miguel a call.” Lisa said and was about calling him when she heard her name.
She turned.. they all turned and saw Miguel, Jayden, Claire, George, Kelvin and surprisingly Alvin.
Alvin accomplished his goal and he is happy, Miguel has his own business while Federick took care of the Knight’s business.
Ramona’s joy knew no bounds.
He came back.
” Alvin..” she called and instantly ran to hug him.
” I missed you like..I can’t even explain.” She said.
” I missed you more, am back now.” Alvin replied.
They talked for a while and all of a sudden, Miguel, Kelvin and Jayden knelt on a knee at once.
Their spouses turned with confusion.
” Mona, would you like to take the chance and get married to me once again, with your name taken during the vow and let the whole world sees that you’re my amazing bride?”
” Kaylee, you once told me that I didn’t ask you out yet…am taking the chance now, will you marry me cutie?”
” You’ve been by my side when I needed you Tiana, funny enough you’ve met my family as my girlfriend. Would you like to grab this moment and make it real, marry me Tee.”
The boys said to their girlfriends and everyone couldn’t believe their eyes and ears.
The rest of the graduating students cheered and clapped for them.
Barbie smiled awkwardly, though she knew that she got the most amazing friends ever and her prince charming will soon come her way….she is still so happy for them.
” Yes!!”
“Yes, I will!”
Tiana and Kaylee said at the same time and clap erupted again, roses from no where came flying down on them.
The rings were inserted into their fingers and they clapped again.
All eyes turned to Lisa and Miguel, waiting for Lisa’s answer.
” Lisa?”
Lisa look up and sighted her mom..her mom signalled to her to go on and she smiled.
” Yes, I will get married to you once again my Knight!” She said and Miguel’s joy knew no bounds.
He happily inserted the ring in her finger and they cheered for them again, the roses earlier was little to what was now showering on them.
” Mona…”
” Talk less baby..” Miguel smiled.
” I love you so much my Knight.”
” I love you too Mona.”
Miguel grabbed her waist and kiss with a lot of joy and unending love, yearning for more and to be with his one and only Mona.
Mrs Joanna smiled at her children.
” Thank you Miguel.” She said and Miguel smiled.
” It’s nothing..mom.” he replied and she smiled. They hugged for a while before breaking it.
As the party continues, laughter filled the air as they all party to their heart content.
Ramona and Alvin look at each other and smiled… Alvin fell first and it was amazing, even though no one expected it.
Kaylee and Kelvin were snuggling towards each other as if they have been glued to themselves… Kelvin also fell first, her handsome Stalker who fell first but she fell harder.
Tiana and Jayden..their love story is quite appealing and sweet to the ear, from hate to love.
George and Claire..those two were complicated at first but now look..even though George fell first.
Miguel and Monalisa….those two love birds, hate at first sight…they both fell first together….they couldn’t leave each other and would do anything for each other.
Barbie smiled happily with them as they never left her.
Monalisa and Miguel rested their foreheads on each other and close their eyes, feeling the beautiful atmosphere around them.
Their marriage will surely take place again, and it would be forever because…
They are MADE FOR EACH OTHER..
THE AMAZING END
Last Words
So, after all emotions, battles in the cafeteria, late-night confrontations in the rain, and a few questionable alliances, what’s the takeaway? Miguel, Monalisa, and Ramona all learned that sometimes the people we clash with the most are the ones who help us grow. Miguel didn’t just challenge the girls—he also found parts of himself he didn’t know he was missing. Monalisa softened, Ramona found strength in vulnerability, and together they unraveled a bit of the tangled web of pain from their pasts.
In the end, Miguel leaves his mark on more than just one heart and brings two rivals closer to understanding that real love, the kind that doesn’t play by the rules, isn’t about who wins or loses—it’s about accepting the beauty in each other’s scars. And they’ll all come out of this a little stronger, a little softer, and definitely not the same as when they started.
