My Ex Next Door

Ken wrapped an arm around Novie's waist and buried his face to her shoulder.

"Don't they have a babysitter?" Novie continued asking, Ken grunted and looked at her.

"Can we stop talking about them?" he complained, Novie shook her head.

"I want to know" she insisted, Ken sighed,

"They change babysitter every week. One time, they almost killed one of their babysitters when Ethan and Leo tried to practice acupuncture to that poor babysitter" Ken clicked his tongue, the triplets action was not a surprise to him since their mother is not normal.

"So Daniella decided to let her friends to look after her kids since they were immune to Daniella's lifestyle and it worked for some time. Now can we stop talking about them?"

"No" She replied, "What about Matthew and Peyton? do they have a kid?" As she said the question, Ken bursts, she glared at him asking him to stop.

"Those two fights every day, the only time they don't argue is when they are in bed" hearing it, Novie also bursts.

"That's funny, What about Evan and Daniella? Also your other friend Glen. And oh! Selena and Anders, my mom say they-" her eyes went round. All her words disappear when Ken sealed their lips.

She tried to push him but the man lay over her. "You just can't stop talking, huh!" Ken spoke in a hoarse voice, Novie pouted and tried to push him but the man was too strong.

"I will stop asking, let me go back to my work. I have test papers to correct" Ken obediently stood up and helped her.

Without asking, Ken picks up the test paper from the table and handed it to her.

"Thank you" she smiled and looked at it.

"Do you need help?" Ken asked. She looked at him and shook her head, "Nope, I can handle it"

Ken sat behind her and massages her shoulder, "Don't you want to continue your school? I thought you want to be a psychologist"

"Nope. I love my job" She replied but her eyes were focused on the papers.

It took her almost half an hour to finish the papers when she looked at Ken the man was sleeping so tightly on her bed.

Her lips curved up a smile and covered his body with a blanket. Then she turned off the light and lay next to him.

Meanwhile outside of Novie's bedroom.

Mary's body frost, her mind was exploding while eavesdropping. She could hear a man and Novie's voice inside but she could not understand their conversation.

Her hand holds on the rails to support her trembling body. Then she went downstairs and looked at her husband and Brent.

The two looked at her with concern, her face was pale which made them worried.

"What's wrong? Is Novie alright?" Angelo asked.

"Yes, but am… Brent, does Novie and Malvin are back together?" Mary asked, her son shook his head.

"I don't think so" he answered, "Why?" Angelo asked.

Mary's finger pointed upstairs and reply absently.

"I think Novie is with a man upstairs, it might be Malvin" as she said those word, Angelo stood up raging.

"That woman! How can she disrespect us" then he rushed upstairs while Mary and Brent followed him

Back in the room.

Novie opened her eyes after a loud knock woke her up.

She looked at Ken who's sleeping beside her, she could hear her father screaming.

"Novie! who's with you? Is he a real man? Why can't he face us instead of sneaking into your room? Open the damn door!" even Ken woke up by the loud noise.

"You need to go" Novie pull Ken's body and push him toward the window, the man was still half asleep and shirtless.

"What? I can face him. I don't have a problem with that" he stated and grabbed his shirt on the floor. Novie glared at him.

"You need to go, my parents will be furious if they find you here. They thought I was their thirty-year-old virgin daughter," she exclaimed while opening the window.

But Ken didn't move, he stood in front and smile at her.

"Stop smiling" Novie was pissed, despite their situation, ken still found a time to tease her.

"Go," she said and looked at the door, seems like her father found the spare key to her bedroom.

"It's too high Novie," Ken complained and looked at the ground, if he will use the trees, it will take him forever to go down.

Novie's body is trembling with nervous, she gulped and looked at Ken.

"Don't worry if you break a bone I will take care of you" she replied and pushed him. She watches Ken's body fall to the ground, after making sure that he survived she closed the window and lay on the bed, at the same time, the door opened.

"See there's no one here" it was her brother Brent.

"hm..." Novie opened her eyes and fake a yawn.

"What are you doing here? Did I forget to lock the door?" she complained.

"No Novie, go back to sleep," her mother said and pushed Brent and Angelo out of her room.

Before leaving, Angelo caught the shoe on the floor, his eyes narrowed and thought that he'd seen somewhere.

Ken grunted and touched his knee, even though Novie pushed him, he was able to balance his body but his knee felt the impact of it.

He strengthened and about to walk back to his house when suddenly a body jumped out from the tree and fell in front of him.

His forehead furrowed and looked at the person, (Oh God!) he exclaimed inside.

"What are you doing here?" he spoke in a dulled voice.

The person in front giggled and encircled a hand to his arm.

"I missed you too brother" Daniella winked and helped him walk back to the house.

"What are you doing here?" Ken asked, worried and confused.

Daniella rested her head to his arm as they walked to Ander's house.

"I am here to help my brother" Ken poker his face, he never asked for help, especially not to Daniella.

"I don't need your help shorty" he tried to push her head away but it keeps coming back.

"Really? Ken, you jump out of the window with one shoe and shirtless, if I don't help you, you'll be 60 and still need to climb the tree to meet your lover" Daniella stopped to yell at him.

"She needs time" He replied and asked her to lower her voice.

Daniella clung her hand to his arm and continued.

"I know you're willing to give her time but I don't, so tell her to be quick" they reached the front door and Daniella removed her hands from his arm.
