chapter fifty three

Joan stared ahead and tears fell

"how can she do that, I wasn't able to wish Nick, he can't be alone on this day, he needs me, how is he? I didn't even get to talk to him, and what if he calls me or go to my house, he will be anxious if he doesn't find or hear from me and he will be broken. my Nick is not that strong" she said as she cried out loudly and never before

after a while she walked in and told maxim they needed to leave it was already late, darkness could be seen

and they left, all Joan thought about was to reach there and go to Nick.

maxim took her to her house and when she got there a surprise was waiting for her.

Nick was lucky, when he got home his friends were waiting for him, they hang around and they were having fun on his birthday but he just sat there with his phone in his hands.

Nick remembered Kimmy and called her

"hello Kimmy, sorry to disturb you but have you seen or heard from Joan. I went to her house and she wasn't there and I tried calling her but she didn't answer" he said, she was his last help to talking to Joan

"yes. she escorted maxim home and she left her phone home I guess. anyways I am heading to her place, maxim texted me to meet them there and they will be arriving soon, so how about you come to her place and Meet her" Kimmy said

"thank you Kimmy"

"you're welcome" Kimmy replied with a smile

after the call, Nick stepped out, on his way he met Leticia who seemed to have a knowledge that his birthday is today he walked past her and without looking back or paying attention to her calling his name.

just when Joan opened the door a surprise was waiting for her.

was she celebrating something she didn't know? she thought so because her place was decorated with Callum and his friends there and just a few minutes of her being shocked Kimmy arrived

"what's going on here? Joan are you celebrating something" Kimmy asked

even she Joan wanted to know

"don't be silly, get inside" maxim said and they went inside, Joan was still shocked and

"what's all this maxim? you seem to be aware of this" Joan asked
