Drake was not going to say more. “Jasm, hand the phone to Serenity. I need to talk to her.”
Jasmine mumbled, “I’m your sister, and you’re saying something happened at home. You don’t want to tell me, but you plan to tell Serenity? Do you think you can hide it from me, b*stard?”
Despite the nagging, Jasmine passed the phone to Serenity and told her best friend, “Drake is keeping me guessing. I don’t know what’s going on, but he wants to speak to you.”
Taking the phone with a smile, Serenity asked Drake who was on the other end of the line, “What’s up, Drake? You can talk to me. I promise to keep it a secret. I won’t let your sister know.”
Truth be told, Jasmine had stuck her ear against the phone so she could get the message straight from Drake.
Her brother piqued her curiosity. Now, Jasmine was dying to find out what was going on at home. All she was told was that it was good, but it was not enough for her to go by.
“Serenity, is my sister eavesdropping next to you? Go outside, and don’t let my sister follow you. Then, I’ll tell you.” Drake knew his sister too well.
Serenity looked at her best friend.
“Dang. Is the boy spying on us or something?”
Jasmine chewed her brother out.
With a smile, Serenity got up and walked out of the shop. She refused to let Jasmine come along.
Thinking that Serenity would tell her later, Jasmine left Serenity to walk out of the shop.
There was no telling what Drake said to Serenity. Serenity returned several minutes later and gleefully handed the phone back to Jasmine. She said with a smile, “Don’t bother about the shop, Jasmine. Just get home.”
“I have Milo and Harry here. They can help. Just go home.”
“What is it? Why are you all acting secretive? What did he tell you, Serenity? Just tell me.”
