"It's alright mom,"Jackie uttered by hugging mom"we are fine.It's just a post track. "he explained by looking at me as I was staring at him in distance.
"You okay,"Amy asked as she looked into my eyes. Yeah she covered my view.
I came out of my thoughts and looked at her as she was worried. Miami was standing next to her ,she passed me a smile when I looked at her.
To be honest I'm confused right now,because I have no idea what Bray told them.
"Oh Anna,You are here, "Isbella shouted as she got off her seat and rushed towards me and welcomed me with a tight hug before I could respond.
"I knew that Jackie would find you,"she whispered into my right ear.
"I'm sorry,"I apologised because everyone was worried.
I have people who care about me more than my parents I guess.
Especially Jackie.
Releasing me from the tight hug she moved forward to come closer to face me.
"Did you all kiss,"she almost squealed which made me wide my eyes. I turned towards my right to see Amy and Miami talking to aunt Callerine.
A hot blush raised over my cheeks thinking of my first kiss with him.
With Jackie.
"Yes right, "she squealed like a kid dragging me out of my thoughts.
"No!,"I snapped as she raised her eyebrows at me.
"Look,"she pointed at my chest"you have his coat,"She waved her hand in the air in a dramatic way"He gave it to you because he likes you. "
"Umm where is Jackie? We separated our ways when we reached here."I asked to change the topic but I really did want to know where he was.
"Where is he,"I asked anxiously abruptly.
"Look!You care about him,"she stated and crossed her arms over her chest"He is in his room.I guess he caught the flu because he quickly gets affected by the weather change. "
"What?,"I almost shouted and left in a blink of an eye without even turning to look at her,but I'm pretty sure that she has something up in her mind now.
Yeah,to see him. I have no idea why the hell on earth I am worried about him.
"You back darling,"Grandpa asked as I stopped hurrying upstairs.
"Yeah grandpa,"I replied as I hugged him"I'm fine. "
"Hmmm,"he hummed as I released him from the hug.
"Ain't you coming to be out with others?;"
"I'll join later grandpa, I've got something important to do,"I answered and rushed upstairs and barged into Jackie's room without even knocking.
Mom,who was adjusting the sheets over Jackie paused and looked at me as I stood there at the doorway a few distance away from the open door.
"Anna," she called as she stood up "Didn't you join others darling, "she asked softly by walking towards the cupboard which was opposite to the bed and grabbed some pills out of the drawer.
Looking at mom I immediately walked towards the coffee table where the glass and jug was placed on it and I filled the glass with water.
"Nope!you join them,"I suggested as I took the pills from her.
"I'll be here to take care of him,"I stated softly thinking that Jackie wouldn't hear me,but I knew that he heard me as he glanced at me surprisingly.
He was seated on the bed, resting his head on the headboard and the duvet was over his legs up till his hip.
"But,"
"No buts,"I snapped and dragged mom towards the door.
"I'll do it. Please,"I plead by stamping my feet on the ground with puppy eyes.
"Okaay,"Mom answered and walked with a chuckle."Let me know if you need something,"she said and closed the door quietly,whereas I myself didn't hear the door creak.
Taking a deep breath I turned around when I heard Jackie clearing his throat to get my attention.
