It was a Saturday afternoon, Matthew was talking to Nate in the classroom. Nate said, " hey,

Matt, how you, and Destiny doing, other than when Destiny was kidnapped by my dad?"

Matthew said, " we are doing good, me, and Destiny are working on our relationship, and take

care of our daughter, Alania." Nate said, " that's good, I'm glad Destiny, and Alania are ok, if t

hey weren't, I would never forgive myself." Matthew said," it's ok, bro, it wasn't your fault."

Nate said, " I know, it's just my dad, he almost kill you, and I blame you for killing my father."

Matthew said, " were friends, no matter what happens, we are still friends." Then, this mixed

girl walks up in front of Matthew, and Nate, and said, Hello, you must be Matthew."

Matthew said, yeah, and who are you?" the girl said," I'm Essence Evans, I'm Destiny's sister."

Matthew, and Nate look at each other, and Matthew said," what, Destiny has a sister?" Essence

said," of course Destiny has a sister, did she ever tell you?"

Then, Destiny walk up with Danielle, and said, "No I haven't." Matthew look at Destiny, and said, " Des, hey baby, how is Alania doing?" Destiny said, " she doing fine." Matthew said, " you didn't tell me you have a sister." Destiny said, "I wasn't, till now." Matthew said, " why, you didn't you tell me about your sister?" Destiny said, " Because, she thinks she all that, get whatever she wants, and always making pass at my boyfriend, well, Darren." Essence said, " Oh, Destiny, you still won't let go of the past." Destiny said, " cause you always get what you want, like your spoil ass mother, Tina!" Danielle was shock, and said, " wait, Tina Lord is your mom?" Essence said, " yes she is, and you, Destiny are the last person who need to talk about other people mother, at least my mother My mother isn't dead." Destiny got mad, and slap Essence in the face hard. Danielle, Matthew, and Nate was shock, and they broke up the fight. Essence fix her long brown hair, and said, " how dare you slap me in the face." Destiny said, " how dare you for talking about my mother!" Essence said, " well, you start it, you was talking about my mother first." Destiny said, " well, you two years older than me, and you know my mom is dead." Essence said, " so, you shouldn't talk about my mother." Destiny was going to attack Essence, and Matthew hold on to Destiny, and said, " Des, Des, calm down, let's go in the hallway." They went in the hallway.

Danielle walk up to Essence, and said, " so, your Tina's bratty daughter?" Essence said, " I'm not a brat!, well, sometimes, what's your point?" Danielle said, " my problem is you are just like your mother, spoil, brat, and thinks she all that." Essence put her hands on her hips, and said, " who are you, anyway?" Danielle said, " I'm Danielle, I'm your cousin." Essence laugh, and said, " girl, we are not related." Danielle said, " I'm Todd Manning's daughter, your mom, and my dad are brother, and sister, Essence, we are cousin." Essence said, " it can't be, the only daughter Uncle Todd have is Starr." Danielle said, " and me, he had two daughter, I'm really his daughter, you have to believe me?" Essence said, " well, you do favor Starr a bit, but, I believe you, I'm glad I get to meet you, Danielle said, " thanks, so, what's the problem between you, and Destiny?" Nate said, " yeah, both of you have bad history together, what's the problem?" Essence said, " and who are you?" Nate said, " my name is Nate Salinger." Essence said, " you have two brothers, one use to date Langston, broke her heart, and now, with Jessica, and your other brother is dating Starr." Danielle said, " yeah, how did you know?" Essence said, " Starr told me, she tell me everything, we are cousin, duh." Danielle said, " right, so, why you, and Destiny keep fighting each other?" Essence said, " sometimes I'm jealous of her, cause she has friends who care about her, I don't have that, people wants to be friends with me cause I'm rich, not for who I am, don't get me wrong, I love my sister, Destiny, I wish I can make it up to her." Danielle had an idea, and said, " maybe you can, come on." Danielle grab Essence's hand. Essence said, " where are you taking me?" Danielle said, " you'll see, let's go, Nate." So, they left the room.


Matthew took Destiny home. Destiny look at Matthew, and said, " thanks for taking me home." Matthew smiled, and said, " anytime, you know that I always be there for you, Des." Destiny smiled, and said, " I know." Matthew said, " so, what's the problem between you, and your sister?" Destiny took a deep breath, and said, " me, and Essence was never that close." Matthew said," Why?, she's your sister." Destiny said, " I know, but, me, and Essence are different." Matthew said, " what do you mean?, Des." Destiny said, " you know, she's rich, and I'm just a normal teen mother." Matthew said, " Des, there a lot of things of good things of you, your smart, talented, always got my back, you're an awesome mother, and you're the most beautiful girl I've ever seen, and I'm glad I have you as my girlfriend, so, give your sister a chance, I'm sure you two will give along." Destiny look at him, and said, " you think so?" Matthew smiled, and said, " I know so, I just can't stand both of you fighting each other, especially, my wonderful girlfriend in the world." Destiny smiled, and said, " stop that, I'm blushing, I wish Essence give me one more chance." Then, Danielle, and Nate walk in. Danielle said, " I think someone wants to apologize." Then, Essence walks in, and said, " Des, look I'm so sorry what I say about your mother." Destiny said, " It's ok, look It's my fault, you was trying to be nice to me, and be the big sister, I was being a brat, I was so jealous of you of you being rich, and I'm sorry I was talking about your mother, can we start over, and sisters again?" Essence smiled, and said, " Des, we are sisters, and I forgive you too." They smiled, and hug each other. Matthew walk between them, and said, " hey, can I join in.?" Essence and Destiny look at each other, and said, " sure." Danielle said, " we should celebrate." Essence smile at Danielle, and said, " you know what, that's a good idea, Danielle." Nate yelled, and said, " party at James's house!" Everybody left, except for Matthew, and Destiny.

Destiny was staring at Matthew. Matthew look at her, and said," what?, there something on my face or something?" Destiny smiled, and said, " no, I'm just so lucky to have you, Matthew, you brought me, and my sister back together again." Matthew smiled, and said, " it was nothing, I just can't stand of you be so angry at your sister, I care about you, Des, I love you." Destiny smiled, and said, " I love you, too, you are the best boyfriend, and greatest dad I've ever had, I guess my Dad was right about you, you are the one for me." Matthew hold on to Destiny, and said, " My grandpa Asa pick the right girl for me." Matthew and Destiny share a kiss. Destiny smiled, and said, " I got to get Alania, I'll be right back." Matthew look at the picture of him, and Destiny holding Alania for Valentine's day. He look up in the air, and said, " Thank you, Grandpa Asa." Destiny came back holding Alania, and said, " who you talking to?" Matthew said, " nothing, look at my beautiful sunshine." Destiny said, " she keep saying where Daddy at, so, I guess she wants her dad." Matthew said, " well, Dad's here, come here, Alania Buchanan." Matthew hold Alania, ask Destiny is she ready? Destiny said, " yeah, I got everything." Matthew said, " ok, let's go." Matthew open the door for Destiny, and close the door behind.
