Tom is very much into the rhythm of the fanfare atmosphere. He’s particularly pleased with Jenny’s spectacular performances. She’s indeed the most outstanding of all the cheer-dancers. The occasion has brought back her happy blazing personality, and she’s giving it all out to the love and admiration of every spectators present.
Sky is equally determined to prove himself as the very best in today’s big game. So he can win the MVP scholarship this year. He’s also motivated to once again echo the Mr. & Miss popularity connections between him and Jenny into the mind of the entire school.
But where’s the musical talented dude in all of these? Believe you me; he’s indeed embarking on a room raider’s explorations at both the rooms of Tom & Jenny.
Once the big game begins, the host team is on course to stamp their dominance in the early part of the game, thanks to the incredibility of Sky’s spectacular performances.
The visitor’s team is doing their utmost to turn the game around. But, Sky’s Indomitable and radiant performances continues to set the difference between these two teams.
The room raider dude is on course to Tom’s room, he has searched all his belongings carefully. Mat also searched Tom’s bathroom and toilet. Then he searched through his little cosmetic draw.
And behold! He saw some strings of long black hairs in his hair brush.
“This finding confirms halfway the suspicion that Jenny could be meeting with Tom”, said Mat.
“But, isn’t it possible that Tom is equally meeting Jenny too?” Mat asked himself.
Therefore, Mat proceeded to Jenny’s place and made his way straight to her room. Guess what? Mat actually started his room raider’s exploration of Jenny’s room from her little cosmetics. And behold still: he also could find some strings of white brown hairs in her hair brush.
“This indeed is a full confirmation that Jenny and Tom have been meeting each other” Mat concluded his confirmatory thought.
But Mat continued with his search hoping to find something more interesting and so he discovered a dairy in Jenny’s wardrobe. He flipped it open here and there then an interesting page popped out that he glances. He pursed at it and read it:
“To the one I love (Tommy).
Oh! My one and only!
Oh! My beautiful butterfly!!
When shall my blossom beautiful flower be deflowered …!!!
Yours affectionately
Jenny parker.”
With this incredible finding, Mat concluded his room raider’s exploration. He packed up his stuff and walked his way out the door. As he hit the road he wished a victory for his host team, hoping that Sky is doing his thing for the team.
Then, he took a cab for the football arena. As he walks closer and closer, the celebrations in the air gets thicker and thicker. Everybody from the host team and their entire supporters, are having a feast of a hard fought victory.
“Mat”, Jenny called out to him. He turned around and saw her and Tom together in good radiance. He reached out to them. Jenny hogged him then Tom choke hands with him and hogged him too. He was very surprise at their sudden warm reception towards him. But he quickly thought that this has got to do with the victory in the air. “It’s indeed a good feeling” he said to himself.
“But Mat! Where the hell have you been?” Jenny asked. “Did you watch the game at all?”
“Oops! I’m sorry I’d an appointment with the manager at Roxy Night Club” replied Mat.
“So, how did your appointment go?” asked Tom with a Keen interest.
“Yo, It’s successful”, replied Mat. “As a matter of fact, I shall be having a night out performing at the club next Friday. Meanwhile let me see what Sky and the rest of the team is up to now”
When Mat got to meet Sky, he told him about his room raiding exploration and findings. He also told him about the need to actually make up with Jenny and Tom that they are good fellows.
“Man, you are my friend and I got to tell you the truth”, said Mat. “You’ve got to give up your pride and let’s make up with those fellows. They are our friend. What a wonderful friendships we’ve had for the past three years. I will not let you destroy it man, please!”
“You are right!” replied Sky. “Let’s support their seemingly good relationship and do make up! But how do we go about it?”
“Just leave that to me bro”, replied Mat. “ She asked me if I were at the game. I lied to her by covering my absence with the appointment I already had with the manager of Roxy Night Club”.
“But how come I didn’t know you had a meeting” asked Sky.
“I’m sorry!” replied Mat. “I just didn’t want to let the cat of the bag before everything was concluded. And I did it just last night”.
“So everything went well then?” asked Sky. “Yea guess what!” replied Mat. “The manager just granted me an awesome opportunity, an opportunity of one night performing next Friday.
“Are you crazy Mat!” said Sky “Next week is prom!”
“I know man, but I cannot miss out on such opportunity for anything in the world”, replied Mat. “Nonetheless, it’s going to be a late night performing at the club. So, I can be present at the Prom, and after which, show up at the club”.
“As a matter of fact, I’m going to talk Jenny and Tom to honor their presence at my night performing. I will like to dedicate my presentation to our awesome friendship over the years.
“I wish you good luck then! Catch you later. And thanks for everything man!” With that Sky embraces Mat.
Later that night, Tom once again sneaked into Jenny’s room as usual. And Jenny was already waiting for him. But this time Tom came with a little box to surprise her!
“You came with a little surprise box, whoa!” said Jenny. “Yea I bring merriment to you, my sweet Jenny!”, replied Tom. “We are going to merry the night till morning”.
“Whoa! Tommy you are amazing but what do we hold this merriment to if I may ask?” said Jenny.
“You see, today marks a wonderful day for our football team, the cheer leading team and the entire school. In the next one week shall be another privilege day”, Tom continued. “Talking of privilege, knowing you have been the most privilege experience in my life. Today and next week I’m privilege knowing you. And that is what my heart wishes to share with you”.
“Oh! Tommy my love you are so sweet. What do we have in your little surprise box for this occasion my dear?”
“Just a moment” replied Tom.
Then, Tom opened the box and brought out a sweet red wine, two sparkling glasses, one flower and a very tiny ring box. He gave the flower to Jenny and put a ring into her finger to mark their romantic engagement. Then came the celebration with a pop of the sweet red wine, poured into the two sparkling glasses, and they cheered each other to a sweet loving relationship.
“You know what Tommy; some sweet thought about us ran through my mind some forth night ago. It’s about my desire to share my love with you in a special way! Now, Jenny goes to her wardrobe to bring out her dairy. But she couldn’t find it.
She searched and searched everywhere about her wardrobe but still she couldn’t find her diary.
“What are you crazily searching for Jenny?” asked Tom.
“I kept my dairy here in my wardrobe, but now I can’t find it. Maybe mom has invaded my privacy and she might have laid her hands on my diary”.
“Oh no!” she exclaimed “My mom discovered our secret, Tom.”
“Guess, what do we do? It’s high time we put an end to our secret and establish an open relationship” Said Tom.
“You’re right Tom”, replied Jenny. “That will help us to gain moral respect from Sky and Mat and from my mom. I guess you can’t stay the night here because my mom might be suspicious already.”
Then Jenny came to where Tom is sitting, sat beside him and said to him affectionately: “My friendship with you has been particularly gratifying. I love you more than the others. I desire to have my romantic beginning a
nd end with you” said Jenny. “And me with you too” replied Tom.
Then they both embrace each other with a long French kiss. After which, Tom recalled back to his room.
That same night Mat made a call to Mr. Frank Moore at Los Angeles. He told him about his upcoming night performing and he invited him.
Chapter Seven
The next day on a Sunday morning, Jenny and her mother went to church. But before they returned home Jenny was met with the surprise of her grandparents. She was very thrill to see her grandparents after three years on. Then she felt she really missed their presence. She broke in tears and over joy as she embraced them.
“My sweetest Jenny“, said Mrs. Parker. “We’ve been communicating with your mother all these years. And she’s been telling us good things about you. Now I can see you are a beautiful lady”.
“We came to see the beautiful lady you’ve became, Jenny”, said Mr. Parker.
“Grand pa, Grand ma, I’m happy you came to California. It’s quite beautiful here, you know. School’s been great. I’m the leader of my cheer leading team. My school won this year’s series yesterday. Oh! I wish you were here yesterday to witness the fun at the game. Nonetheless, this coming Friday is the prom. Not to mention, my grades are fantastic and I hope to study medicine with Tom in college”.
“It’s great to see the life in you, my dear sweetie”, replied Mrs. Parker.
“Jenny, you have to invite some your friends over for some get together with your grandparents, right?” asked Mrs. Babera. It’s a surprise get together, and I’ve made all the arrangement already.
Then, Jenny went to Tom and together they went to visit Mat and Sky. Jenny told them all about her family fatal accident that took her father’s life. She told them about her harrowing ordeal and how she got help from Dr. Nic. Eventually, how she came to California with her mom to seek a life which she found with the boys and her new school.
Then she invited them all to a get together with her grandparents who have just arrived.
Mat also took the opportunity to formally invite them all to his forth coming night performing. He told them that Mr. Frank Moore had also promise to come. He told them that he needed their presence to inspire him and to dedicate his performing as some kind of peace accord among them all for the future.
Later in the day, they all gathered in round table at Mrs. Babera house. Mrs. Babera had prepared the banquette table ready with a beautiful cake.
When everybody was set at table, Jenny introduced the boys to her grandparents:
“Grand pa and grand ma meet Sky. He’s the heroic captain of the high school football team. Meet Mat. He’s a musical talent. Meet Tom, Tom and I are very close. We both in a responsible relationship” suddenly there came a great silence!
“I’m please to meet you boys” replied Mr. Parker (as he breaks the silence). “It’s a double celebration to know that my grand-daughter is not only healthy and happy but she’s in love too”. “Thank you grand pa”, replied Jenny.
“Over the last three years my daughter has greatly improve from her once hopeless and helpless state of mind. The accident that took my most lovely husband has taught me a great lesson in life. But nothing like the lesson my daughter has taught me I’m proud and privilege to be the mother of my daughter”. “Mom, I love you” replied Jenny.
“Jenny my sweetie grand-daughter, you’ve become a blazingly attractive and inspiring young lady”, said Mrs. Parker. “And now to my surprise, she talks about responsible relationship. Whoa! She’s also inspiring herself towards womanhood as well”. “Thanks grand ma” replied Jenny. “I get an idea, how about Mom and I visit Texas this year’s thanksgiving?”
The boys truly had not only a wonderful meal but a filled revelation at the banquette. Then, Mat returned Jenny’s diary. He lied that he wanted to visit the latrine but sneaked his way to Jenny’s room and put back the diary in the wardrobe, where he took it.
Big Friday has suddenly arrived that everybody has been waiting for, the prom night. Now the school is most colorful, they are different outfits of young girls and gentle boys. And the atmosphere is ignited with the aura of celebrations everywhere.
Jenny, Tom, Sky, and Mat and the rest of the entire students of San Francisco High School are enjoying the colorful night. The school principal, Mr. Bruce Boyle is about to make an important speech. The students are coordinating themselves in the spirit of what to expect.
“Good evening to you dear students of San Francisco High School. This year is indeed a success for us all as our senior students are leaving us gloriously. They’ve done well to once again put our school on the spot-light this year. It has been three years ago since we last had such glorious outcome at the state football competition.
I want to use this moment to announce to you all that the hero of this year’s success in the person of Mr. Sky shall be our prom king tonight. He should come forward to announce his prom queen for tonight! (And the student cheer Sky’s coming out).
Sky came out feeling hilarious but then he had something under his sleeve. He shook hands with Mr. Bruce bowing to him in respect. Then, he grabbed the mic.
“I’m going to Harvard. This is a special opportunity for me, thanks to you all. Nonetheless, I do not feel like to give this moment to myself. I give this moment to two special friends who have been real to each other yet humble. Their love for each other deserves this moment than my ego. Give it up for the ‘prom king and queen – Tom and Jenny!’ (And there was greater cheering by the students in wonderment).
Tom and Jenny then step out in amazement. They went to Sky and embraced him. Mat came up to the stand and embraced them all. And that was how the celebration of the ‘prom night’ continues. Later that night Mr. Frank Moore came to pick them for the club.
At the club Mat met briefly with Mr. Ben, the club manager. After a while, he took to the stage with an ushering by Mr. Ben.
“Ladies and gentlemen, I’m Mat, a young musical talent. I’m privilege to entertain and inspire you guys with what I’ve got tonight. I dedicate this music to my fans and to everyone in the club here present. It’s my sincere pleasure that you guys feel truly entertain and inspire”.
As Mat sings he sees himself in his own future. A business man called Mr. Roger Ray who is also present in club came up to him and gave him, his complementary card. The business man said that he is unto music production. And that he’s found a real talent in him.
Sky became a lawyer and settled down in New York.
Jenny and Tom, both studied medicine in the state university. They got married in college. Jenny became a psychiatrist and Tom became a gynecologist. Then, they had a baby boy called Jerry.
After Mr. Frank fabulous career, he went to a coaching school. He has a great aspiration to coach the national team.
Mrs. Babera later re-married to one Mr. Gilbert Lawson, Whose wife died of cancer. Mr. Gilbert also had a daughter and she’s about the age of Jenny. Her name is Janet. But that’s all I should know about her. What do you think? Aaah!aaah!!aaah!!!
