Okay i had to split this chapter up in two halves because otherwise it would be really long. I will probably upload the other half tomorrow :D Thanks for the reviews! :)


Saff's POV

The bath was luxuriously warm. There was something about the hot soapy water and lavender bubble bath that just made you feel relaxed. I didn't spare a thought about my uncle or any of yesterday's events. In fact, I wasn't even sure what I was thinking about. I was that relaxed.

Once I reluctantly pulled myself out of the bath and tried myself off with a white fluffy towel, I wrapped myself up and walked back into our room. I realised that the only t-shirts I had left were dirty ones or ones covered in blood. I decided to pull on one of Uri's tops to go with my shorts. The top nearly came down to my knees so I tied it at the side with a hairband.

I walk down to the kitchen where most people were hanging out. Will got up out of his seat to let me sit down and he sat on the kitchen counter instead.

'Thank-you.' I say politely.

'You are very welcome, Curley. How are you feeling?'

'Really good actually.' I smile.

'Let me make you some breakfast, you must be starving.' Will smiled kindly and started making me a sandwich.

'Your friend is in the living room with Xav and Crystal.' Vic told me after I had finished my sandwich

'Friend?' I ask, confused.

'Jengo.' Dolly smiled.

'Jengo is here?!' I ask excitedly.

'Yeah, he's been dying to see you.' Vic smiles. I get up and walk over to the sink to wash up my plate but Vic plucks it out of my hand.

'Let me do that. You go talk to Jengo.'

'Saff! How are you doing, my girl?' Jengo exclaims as I walk in.

'I'm good, and yourself?' I ask politely

'Never been better. Hey, can I talk to you for a bit?' He asks.

'Sure.' I say and take him up to my bedroom. Jengo, being the big kid he is, dives on the bed which I had only just smoothed down the covers of.

'What did you want to talk about?'

'A lot of things. Firstly, yesterday's events. I know what happened; I just want to know if you're alright?'

'I'm fine Jengo, actually, I've never felt this safe in ages.'

'Good good. Also, Grandma sends her love. She wanted to see how you are but she couldn't because of her arthritis.'

'That's kind of her, how's she doing with the smoothie bar?'

'Alright, I've been helping out a lot too. Who know blending fruit could be so hard?' Jengo chuckles.

'It takes great skill.' I shrug, winking at him.

'Saff, what are you going to do about Uri?' Jengo asks, lying back so his head is rested on the pillow.

'What do you mean?' I say, although I know full well what he means.

'He lives in America, Saff. All his family are from America. He has a job, a house…'

I sigh. 'I know, I know…I really don't know what I'm going to do.' I say, lying down next to him.

'I don't want to push you, but I think you should go.'

I look up at him, surprised, since I thought he would be begging me to stay.

'Don't get the wrong idea, me and Grandma, we'd love you to stay but we've been talking and we think that you should go to America with him.'

'What about the kids though? They'd have to leave behind all their friends and I would have to leave behind my whole life here.'

'Think about it Saff. If you move to America with him, you would live in a nice house in the suburbs, you could meet up with his family whenever you want, Jos and Taz could actually go to school and have a good education!'

I consider these possibilities in my head and they all sound good, especially the one about Tazzy and Jos's education.

'That does sound…tempting. But…I don't know…South Africa is all I've ever known. It would be weird leaving it.'

'Look, I know Uriel and he's a great guy. I'm sure if you really wanted to stay he would leave behind his life and family and job in America just to live here with you.'

'Now that's just guilt-tripping me.' I laugh.

'At the end of the day, it is entirely your decision. I just want you to know that, sure everyone at the beach would miss you guys but lots of people would love to be in your place and I think you should take it.'

I sit there for a bit, thinking about what Jengo said before deciding.

'Okay, I think I want to go to America.'

'That's my girl!' He laughed. 'Saff, one more thing?'

'Yes?'

'Well I was talking to Crystal back there and she…she found my soulfinder…in France!'

'Wow! Congratulations!'

'No, that's the thing, Saff. I can't get out of the country. I have no money, no passport and I have to look after my siblings.'

I bite my lip, not sure what to say.

'Well…I was thinking… I don't want to sound rude but Uriel has quite a bit of money…So maybe, I mean if you wanted to-'

'You want me to find your soulfinder.' I grin.

'That would be great. Just tell her where I am. Make sure you mention how intelligent, sexy and charming I am as well.'

'Of course Jengo.' I smile as he tackles me to the bed in a cuddle.

'Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you!' He exclaims.

'You're very welcome.'

'I best be off now anyway. Grandma might sack me if I'm late from my shift.' He laughs.

'Okay Jengo, Say hello to Grandma for me, I'll pop round to see her soon.'

'Bye Saff.'
