I Choose You by Kemi Adejumo (classic novels for teens txt) 📗

"Jess!! I said you are not going back to the palace till we graduate,  just two months and College is over" yelled Christian.   "But Christian the doctor  said my Mom needs to rest and it's time for her to retire . She still has four months before her retirement and I don't want to have her pay back her salary.  You know the Palace payed her full year salary, it's for her retirement program. I just have to work in the palace as a maid for just four months " replied Jessica .

"is it money Jess,  then fine I will pay it off" answered Christian 

"No Christian!! I don't want your money . Please let me just do this for my mom,  I can complete my studies online"

"Well you leave me no choice,  you are staying and it's a command" he fired back.  I became angry because he won't just understand "You can't do that Christian, that's not...."   

 "Oh, will you two just shut up!!" Molly interrupted before I could complete my sentence. "You two have been going back and forth for thirty minutes and it's irritating me" Jake slightly chuckled and she glared at him before she faced me and sighed " Look Jess baby,  you should understand what Christian is saying,  this is the last two months of our college life.  We don't want you mia..... but I understand that you have to do this for your Mom after everything she has done for you. She deserves a debt free relaxing retirement. " I smiled and hugged her "you really understand me Molly"         

"I know " she smiled and turned to Christian "and you Christian need to understand that she has to do this for her Mom... Please it doesn't even affect her studies. After two months,  she gets her degree and then after the next two months,  she can finally submit her application in your company like you guys planned.  Viola... everybody is happy "

Christian always talked about how he is going to employ me in his family's company after we graduate.  Everytime I asked him why he wants me in his family's company,  he would always say that he wants me to be successful. This is the main reason he doesn't want me to work as a maid.  Since we have been best friends,  Christian has always found a way to exclude me from that crowd and he is mad that he can't do it again.
