Chapter 3

Genelia was sitting peacefully with a box of chocolates by her side and reading Harry potter and the prisoner of Azkaban. She loved to read this series. She felt nice and could keep reading for hours if she had an opportunity. She would soon finish these series. These series were awesome! She was enjoying herself when her door opened and her best neighborhood friends entered.

'Hey there, said Angela, her best friend at school as well as home.

'Hi' said her other besties at home, Allen, Miley and Ferren.

'You are reading that boring book of yours again? Why do you read all this shit!." Ferren said.

'Dare not insult harry potter. It's the best book and I love him."

'oh yeah, well then do tell that nerd in your books that he should….."

'Shut up' Miley screamed at the top of her voice.

'It's time to go to play. Come on then' Angela said to change the topic.

'I can't. I am going for a swim with dad.'

'But it's already seven. Star club closes at 7 on Sundays. I mean on August 7th every year. Remember.'

'Yeah I do.'

'Maybe he forgot. You got to come to play. We have a new game coming up. Come on'. Allen said

They started playing treasure hunt and Chinese whisper till 8 and then they went to the aerobics ground, where aerobics were taught to children by a bunch of teenagers. They sat at a bench and gazed at the children. Genelia narrated what had happened to Angela. She trusted her with all her secrets. Then Angela started her speculations.

'Maybe your dad had an affair. It's always that which leads to divorces most probably.'

'How can you say that?'

'Well, if you wanna know you have to use your 6th sense. After what your mom's cutting remark was isn't it obvious.'

'Yes, it is.'

After that she went back home and then went to the bathroom. She splashed water on her face. She kept doing that till she was content. She made a neat pony to her brown hair and went and stood looking at her eyes. She could see she had lots of similarities between her and her fathers. Her eyes, hair color, nose was like her father. She wore her pajamas and went to Jake's room. She wanted to hear him play his guitar. She went in and saw her brother sitting with a girl. She had specs and short black hair. She held Jake's hand. She then embraced Jake. Just then Jake's eyes fell on Genelia standing by the door. He pushed the girl out of his arms and stood there. The startled girl looked confused and then saw Genelia.

'I can explain.' Jake said.

'She, she, is she your girlfriend? '

'Yes, she is in my division. 12th A.'

'What is her name?'

'She came to take notes. We decided to study Maths together.'

'I can see you have been studying for a while. Your eyes are red.'

'Yes as a matter of fact.'

'What is her name?'

'Amy Harrison '

And then the look on Jake's face explained Genelia perfectly that her Dad had married another girl and this was the reason that her mom had given divorce. She stood there frozen stiff. So her dad had another child, who was as big as Jake.

'And she is not my girlfriend, but our SISTER.' Jake said.
