Chapter 48

"Wake up." I  felt Bianca shove me.

"you lazy son of a bitch, get up!" I heard her say before she kicked me on my arse.

I rose up faster than I thought possible

"what in God's name did you just do that for ?" I glared at her. 

She smiled innocently " your mom is waiting outside for you; it's all she can control not to barge in here.

If not for the Alpha's protection barrier she would have been the one waking you up instead of I, " she smiled evilly.

I turned towards the door, but there was no sign of the triplets.

" where are they?"

I don't need to emphasize more on my question for her to know exactly who am asking about.

"They're not here, they went for an important meeting." she looked everywhere but at me as she answered my question.

"What's important?" I can't believe this three slipped off from my fingers.

They must know I was preparing on asking them questions till they grow tired of answering, my curiosity won't be sated if they don't answer my questions.

"They have important things to do other than watch over a lazy arse like you're. They have far more things and obligations to fulfil," she smiled tightly.

My heart hurts like hell at her words.

I know what she said is the truth, but I was expecting her to at least sugarcoat her words, not say things outrightly.

"Yeah, indeed they have far more important thing to do," I turned towards the window to avoid showing her my teary face.

I don't know what's wrong with me, but I can't help feeling a bit hurt at their blatant ignorance of me.

It's true they have far more important things to do than to look after me, a person who they had to suspend whatever they were doing just to help save me.

A person who've been nothing but a nuisance to them, a nuisance they're better off without in their life.

"Your mom is waiting for you outside,"she  reminded me again.

I can't believe I forgot about my mom.

My mind was clouded with thoughts of my almost second encounter with them, and their avoidance of me to think of anything else.

My cheeks grew hot in embarrassment when I recalled what happened earlier today, or late last night.

Whatever the time was then, I can't seem to tell the exact time I slept and the time I woke up to the most embarrassing moments of my life.

"What's she doing here?" I  asked her before I can think of my words; I never thought of my words before the left my mouth.

I said those words without actually thinking on the words.

She arched an eyebrow "what's who doing here?" she looked confused.

I sighed in relieve, thank God she didn't understand my questions, else she would have thought me insane asking after my mom like that.

"Never mind, I will just get ready,"  smiled at her with all the strengths I can muster.

Inwardly I feel like shit, how can I have forgotten everything about my life just because my mind and soul was clouded with the thoughts of the dashing triplets.

"Do you like them?" She asked.

I stopped dead in my tracks at her words, whipping my head so fast I was afraid I will get a whiplash for it, I turned towards her.

" What made you think so?" I raised a brow in question, trying to keep a calm facade although my hear was beating more than miles a minute.

I was afraid it will jump out of my chest any moment from now if care's not taken.

Am not that obvious am I?

I don't think so; there's no way for her to know how I feel for them.

I don't think I love them, but all I know is I feel something for them no matter how small the spark might be.

Her knowing of my feelings will Sullen the plan for me, she might tell the triplets about my so called feelings, and they in turn will avoid my perverted self for fear I will rub off on them.

Telling her is a mistake I will avoid no matter the consequences; she's not worth losing the triplets over.

She raised a brow "you always ask questions to answer a question whenever you're nervous," she narrowed her eyes to slit "you  my dear is as nervous as a deer caught in headlights," she smiled evilly.

I don't know what I did to deserve this, neither do I know why she thinks that way, but I won't let her be privy of a stuff I want to keep private.

She seems close to them, and I don't doubt they will find out from her my feelings eventually; she will tell on me without a second thought.

I shook my head "no I don't like them."I  smiled, but it was as forced as it was fake.

"Don't you dare deny the obvious Miguel; your look betrays your thoughts. Just by looking at you a person will know how deeply you've fallen for the triplets,"  she smiled.

" I said I don't like them; my looks betraying my thoughts might be based on the fact I was thinking of them and how they saved my life when you asked the question." I smiled. " I just like them for saving my life nothing more." I shrugged.

" Admitting to the truth won't kill you Miguel, you telling of your affections for them won't take anything away from you."

" I said I don't like them, what you think you know is t the truth. Truth be told, I never for once thought of them as nothing more than acquitances." 

She sighed "  why do people deny a fact they know to be the truth? It's easier for people to lie than for them to say the truth. They rather lie than admit the obvious truth, a truth they can't be hidden forever."
