Chapter 4. One of Them Needed to Step Down!

Drake returned home with a busted lip and an ugly bruise forming on his right cheekbone. His ma gasped at seeing his condition. “Now, who did you fight with? Hope it’s not with Nate?” asked his ma with her hands on her waist. 

“Please ma, I don’t want to discuss this,” said Drake. 

“Let him be. I’ll talk to him later,” said Stuart. Drake was thankful for his older brother's intervention, or else his ma wouldn't have let this go. His ma nodded and went away. Drake smiled thankfully and dashed off to his room to clean up. He was very upset. After his blatant confession, Nate had just walked away, leaving him on the premises. Drake hadn’t wanted to admit his feelings to him, but he couldn’t take in the game Nate was playing. He was using Alexis to get at him, and Drake just couldn’t sit back and watch him break the young girl. 

After the incident, Drake felt angry at Alexis for accepting Nate’s proposal.
