Chapter 52: 52 52: The trespassers

Later that night, Novie went to her room early to review her topic for tomorrow. She sat on the chair behind her desk facing the window.

The night is calm and the sky is clear, showing all the stars shining above, she was captivated by the shining stars that she forgot that she's in the middle of writing her lesson plan.

She set her palms down flat on the table and stared at the night sky.

(What is he doing?) she asked herself, she suddenly thought of her boyfriend.

Novie got up and walked closer towards the window, one hand holding her phone.

She dialed Ken's number while looking at Ander's house when she opened the window she could hear Alexa's voice singing so loud.

'I stay out too late, got nothin' in my brain'

'That's what people say, mmm hmm'

'that's what people say, mmm hmm'

While listening to Alexa's voice, another voice yelled from somewhere.

"Do you need a stage?" it was her brother Brent, she took out her head to the window and looked down. Her lips parted when she saw her brother walking with a microphone in his hand.

Novie poker her face, thinking how small his brain was to fight a five-year-old kid.

"Brent, don't do it" she warned him, the man lifted his head to her direction, when their eyes met Brent smirked and ignored her warning.

(Oh! This is going to be interesting) she said to herself. She rested her arm on the window and watched her brother walks to Ander's house, when the man knock, she saw the door opening and her eyes widened when she saw Leo and Ethan coming out with a big bowl full of water in their hands.

Splash!!!

The two boys throw the water to Brent without a warning.

(!)

Novie burst to laugh when she saw Brent's soaked body, the man turned statue standing by the door even after the two boys slammed the door closed.

Novie's laughed reached to Brent, the man looked at her and showed her a fist, seeing that, Novie ran downstairs to complain to her parents.

"Ma, Pa, Brent gestured to punch me" she spoke after finding her parents in the living room watching the night drama.

Angelo got up and walks to the door, he was about to open it when Brent entered the house.

"What happened to you?" Angelo asked Brent's face was deep black while his feet made its way to the bathroom.

In the other side, Novie and Mary exploded after seeing Brent's body soaked.

"Brent, was it raining hard outside?" Novie said humorously while her lips almost tear from laughing.

Brent ignored Novie and turned to Angelo.

"I want them out Pa! Those three brats!" Brent stated as he opened the bathroom door.

Angelo wrinkled his brows while crossing his arms, "You have an apartment, why don't you move out and stop provoking them. They were raised to protect each other" Angelo scolded him.

Brent twitched his lips and closed the door, realizing that his parents are no longer on his side.

Novie shook her head, she went back to her room and was surprised when she saw Ken laying on her bed, one hand served as his pillow and the other holding a book.

She immediately locked the door and stood next to the bed, her face painted in shock.

"Ken what are you doing here?" she asked in surprise, Ken lowered the book he was reading and looked at her, a smile formed on his lips while his body rose from the bed.

Slowly, Ken moves closer to her, Novie took a step back while her hands were on his chest, stopping him from getting closer.

She gulped when she saw the playful smile he had on his lips, when her body felt the wall, her skin shivered.

"Ken… I have so much work to do, my parents are in the living room and you… have the triplets… so am..." Novie stuttered and tried to keep their distance by pushing his body but the man was not listening, his eyes were narrowed while his hand lay on the wall, blocking her way out.

Ken stared at her, they stayed in the same positioned for so long time that her legs started to get numb.

"You will not give up, are you?" Novie asked.

Ken's smiled remained and shook his head as a response, Novie sighed and thought of giving up.

She wrapped her hand around his neck and tiptoe to reach his lips, as their lips are about to touch, the window creaked opened followed by Mathew's voice.

"Ken, I need help with Alexa, I think you forgot to get her blanket from the laundry shop, she's crying" Matthew hissed and entered her room through the window.

Novie's eyes went round, (What's wrong with this family, can't they use the door?) she blurted inside.

She quickly untangled her hand around Ken's neck and escape, she sat on the chair and pretended to look at her books, embarrassed that Matthew almost caught them.

(I'll make sure to add more locks to that window) she thought.

"What are you doing here Matthew?" Ken asked in an annoyed tone, Matthew leaned against the wall and crossed his arms.

"Look Ken, no hard feelings but your not getting laid until that Witch returns my wife and I will keep disturbing you until you apologize to your psychotic sister" Matthew spoke in a casual tone.

Ken exhaled and shook his head, "I am not going to apologize to her".

Matthew looked at Novie and clicked his tongue, "I am sorry Novie but like I said no one is getting laid until that crazy woman gives my wife back" saying that, Matthew walks to Novie's direction and sat on the edge of her bed, he took the book Ken was reading earlier and pretended to read.

Ken slapped his forehead, he thought that asking Matthew to look after the triplets tonight was smart but he was wrong, Matthew turned out to be worst than the triplets, at least the kids understood that he wants to spend time with Novie but Matthew, he doesn't even give him a chance to kiss Novie.

Ken clenched his fist and walks to the window, his eyebrows snapped when he realized that Matthew used a ladder to climb the window.

(Freaking rat! So smart) he curses inside, he never thought of using a ladder every time he sneaks into Novie's room and yet Matthew was able to do it.

"I will see you tomorrow Novie" Ken waved a hand as a goodbye and winked at Novie.

When Ken's figure disappeared, Matthew and Novie stared at each other and laugh.

"Thank you, it's hard to concentrate with my work when he's around" Novie blurted.

Matthew got up and walks towards the open window.

"Your welcome" he responded and left her room.

--

After Novie set her alarm for tomorrow, her window opened once again.

She got up and ready herself to scold her boyfriend when she realized it was not Ken.

Her eyes widened in shock as she stares at the two-person walking towards her direction with a devilish smile on their lips.

(No!!!)
