Unwrapping The Throne

CHAPTER TEN

Having spent four days with his siblings, it was time for him to return to New York and like the first time, it was prolonged with questions about safety precautions and a lot of reassurance about always being there for his siblings who were sad to see him go again. Already knowing their goodbyes would be teary, he had kept grand news from them all throughout the weekend and few minutes before he got into the car, he said

'I guess if yall keep being moody about this whole thing, I wouldn't invite you for my tournament just around the corner now, would I?' Upon hearing this, his siblings were happy and so was Marcus who understands how much the support of his siblings means to him while in the boxing ring.

'No more tears from me then' Bliss said and got a yes from Louis too and with this, they all agreed to meet in New York in a month and a weeks time where his siblings would be vacationing for some time since their final exams was just around the corner.

With a last mission in New Jersey, Javice pulled up to the Sea Grits Memorial Ground and after locating his twins resting place that read Oh Oh, don't even think of crying for me, I live on bro! As much as Alvin's death pains Jave, he couldn't help but laugh at the inscription he had chosen on his dying bed, he made Javice promise this was the only thing there and with this Jave started catching him up on life so far in New York getting responses from the air that whistled and the birds that sang.

'Yo bro! Remember how much you wanted to move to the big city? Well, I live there now as you would already know and I met this really fine girl and as much as she annoys me with her timidity, I can't help but miss her even now. Also, I'm so hyped about the tournament bro, better make sure my opponent throws weak punches or something from up there though, chicks love this face and I don't want anybody ruining it' he joked wiping his now teary eyelids.

'Engineering is busting my ass bro, one minute I find it simple and the next I'm on a roll with crazy course work, I wish we were doing all these together.'

Laughing to himself, he made sure to handpick the weeds scattered around while dropping a 50 dollar bill on his grave, a promise he made to him.

'I appreciate you for keeping our siblings safe too though, and yes, I burst dads jaw this time, before you start laughing your head off, know that I hurt my pinkie while doing that and also bro, I have good news, I'm so hyped about this news, remember that tattoo about phoenix you've always wanted, I got it on my shoulder just last week. You picked a great spot too since I can show that one off with the neck tattoos. I miss you so much Alv but just know that I will fight till my last breath to make sure your death wasn't in vain and also feed the needy as much as I can. I think I gave the school enough time to complain about tattoos now didn't I?, I've been wearing shirts and corporate s**t but since I finally got your most loved tattoo, I'll wear revealing clothes now, lecturers be damned' Taking a deep breath, he continued 'I'm still not ready to let anyone look into my scars though so the backs still off limits but not to worry, I'll be ready one day just not tomorrow, he jokingly added.

'Keep watching over me bro, I love you and I miss you and yes, I didn't even cry so I want a slow competitor at the tournament as a bonus, okay?' and with that, he left for New York.

' He didn't show up in the early morning classes today too baby girl' Dylan updated his twin sister who was at this point borderline worried about Javice's whereabouts.

'Okay, I get that he might still be mad at me, but why isn't he even taking his calls?' asked Amber.

‘Well, if it helps, the course representative said he sent him a message telling him about an emergency trip back home and how he would return today or something, I'm sure if he's around, he would attend the rest classes' he added in the departmental parking lot where he was helping his sister with her backpack from the car and as if on cue, a motorbike roared in the parking lot and her Greek god looking like a new person with his tattoos and typical bad boy skinny ripped jeans, boots and vest came down from the bike and walked his way straight to her looking a model on the damn runway, with this piece of art almost reaching her side, all Amber could envision was herself ripping the heads of girls who were drooling over him off.

Sensing the anger radiating off her and already knowing he might be the cause of it due to his radio silence for a week now, he made sure to recompose himself and seeing that the anger was not directed to him but instead others particularly the queen bee of the school, he felt giddy with joy but this emotion was well hidden.

'Bro, what's up?' he greeted Dylan and his friends with all his attention on Amber who remained unfazed with his presence, 'Hello Amber' he greeted and with a response of just 'hey' from her, she went ahead to pick her backpack from Dylan, whispered a see you later to her twin brother and left without paying Javice no heart at all.

'I guess she's mad at you bro, give her time to come around' Dylan said and with that left for their class followed by Javice.

Leaving Javice like that at the school park took all of Amber's strength, one thing was for sure though, he was alright and no matter how angry she was, she discovered that she had really no reason to be since the two of them were just friends, she figured he owed her no explanation whatsoever but a part of her still wished to unravel the mysterious Javice Throne, she could totally liken him to an onion, the more she unwrapped, the more layers she found and with this array of thoughts, she moved into her own class that was anyway cut short by her lecturer. 'What a way to end the day' she thought before leaving to wait for her brother around his own faculty so they could head home when he was finally done. Unsure of where to really wait, she took the field route and was surprised when she was cornered by two unruly looking men.

Spiraling into panic, Amber had no idea whatsoever to do at this point, 'God please if you can hear me, send me some help' she prayerfully thought while chewing on her lips profusely and like the marvelous person God was, her prayers was answered in a way she however wasn't expecting.

'So you look chick, would you mind me getting your number?' one of the guys said while almost breathing in her neck

'No, I just want to leave please' she replied surprised at herself for even mumbling those words out, she was close to tears now.

'She just wants to leave' the other guy mocked. Looking into his eyes, she couldn't help but remember her past experience. 'God where are you now' was her last though before she heard a 'is everything okay here my love?' and with that, she burst her prayers into hallelujahs.
