Miguel's pov
"Please listen to me," I beg with tears in my eyes.
I know how much they don't like seeing me in tears, but this time they didn't even glance twice at my tear stained face.
"What's so secretive about the person you spent your day with? " Donald looked at me with hurt filled gaze " just tell us what we want to hear and we will forget what happened earlier," he looks at my half naked self "you better put on some clothes," he says as if seeing my naked half repulses him.
"What's wrong?" mom barged in without knocking,
taking a look at my half naked self, she widens her eyes at me "why are you naked?!"
"What's it?" Bianca asked as she walked in through n the door mum left ajar.
On seeing her, the triplets growls "you better turn your back if not I will pluck your eyes out," Damien glares at her.
" Sorry Alphas, " she bows before hastily running out.
" Why did you send her out leaving me here?" Mom have a confused look on her face.
" You're his mother, seeing him naked now wouldn't be a first time for you," Daniel shrugs.
" You better go put on some clothes," Daniel growls at me " you won't like what we will do if another sees you naked."
I scurry to my closet without waiting for anymore instruction from him.
Am already in enough shit for me to be caught in another.
" How did you three end up here?" Mom asked them with a raised brow.
" We came in through there," Donald points to my ajar window.
" Who did you spend the day with? " Damien not being one to let something slide asked again.
"I told you I spent it alone!" I said it a bit hurt they didn't seem to believe me.
"We will find out why you're trying to hide, and when we do, you won't like what we will do to him," Damien threatens " you will sure keep out of our way until you come clean, "he walks out of the door without a backward glance to a tear stained old me.
" It would have been easier if you answered our questions," Donald said before he too walked out of the door.
"We will find whatever it is you're trying to hide, " Daniel too walked out on me.
" It's over !" I cried.
slumping down to the floor, I allowed the tears slid down as freely as they want.
" Why are you so hell bent on making things difficult for the three of them?" mom asked after a moment of tearful silence "why couldn't you have told them exactly what it is they want to know?"
i sat there unable to make any sound, my kind still lost in the past.
Why did I agree to follow Manuel in the first place? why didn't I truthfully answer this questions when they asked?
Why did I allow my stupid self to lead me astray? why did I allow them walk out the door without trying to amend anything?
"You better sort things out with them," mom said before she too left me to my tears; a tear I so much deserved to shed for both my foolishness and thoughtlessness.
I should have taken Bianca's warnings serious but I didn't, instead i brushed it off as typical Bianca's way.

"Aren't you going to eat your meal?" Manuel asked as he sat near me.
Slowly looking up, I was met with his always humor filled eyes.
Without replying to his words or even saying hello, I took my tray and stood up from the floor I was sitting on( I like eating outside most times, especially on sunny days).
"Where are you going to?" Manuel took hold of my arm, "what's wrong?"
"Leave my arm," I glare at him hand that's holding to mine "you better do what I ask else I won't be held responsible for what I will do."
"Come on Miguel, " he cocks his head to a side "why are you acting like we're strangers?"
" Just leave me, please," I give him a pleading look,
" Why are you suddenly acting this way?" He looks hurt " is it because of what I asked yesterday? you can take as much time as you want, I won't pressure you." he smiles.
As much as I would have loved to walk out there for fear the triplets will see us together, the look on his face is enough to make me sit back down.
" Am not angry at you," I try to smile but it came out like a forced one.
He perks up "do you want to hang out again after school?" he looks hopeful.
" Am sorry I can't. Bianca asked me to escort her to the mall," I lied about that.
In truth Bianca have been avoiding me ever since I came to school today, always looking for an excuse to avoid me.
He frowns "she's going on a park meeting with the Alphas. I don't think she will have time to spend with you for shopping," he smiles " are you trying to make an excuse?" he wiggles his brow ' are afraid you're going to fall for my charms?"
I roll my eyes at him " someone is acting so egotistical."
"Hmm" he thinks " that's one of my characters," he winks.
"I don't seem to see you in class, where do you go for classes?"
I know he's in the same school year as I, but I've not for once seen him in the same class as I.
He shrugs "my cousins don't like being in the same room as I.
They made sure I take different classes from theirs."
" Why did they do that? " i don't think they will do something like that without a tangible reason. There must be something there.
" I guess they're afraid I might magnet all the girls," he leans in closer " they don't know am more a male's magnet."
" Shut up," I playfully glare at him.
