When I got home I saw a big box outside of my house waiting for me to open it. It's written with Kenneth's name so I ask Julio to bring it inside of the house since he said that he's a gentleman.

Before I open the box, I saw a letter written on it.

Dear Kennedy,

My dad wanted me to send you this dress and he said that it would be nice if you wear this dress to his mascaraed ball this Friday. I'm going to pick you up Friday night. See you :)

- Kenneth King

I read it loud and Julio looked at me curiously.

"You're dating Kenneth King? Oh. No, you can't... " I cut him off.

"Of course, not, and yes I know he's also a gang leader. He is like a brother to me J. Nothing to worry about" I said. He sighs in relief when I said that.

"That's good. You two can be friends but please don't date him." He said. I nodded and laugh he is being paranoid.

"I can't promise you that. He's nice, sweet, and handsome he's boyfriend material you know." I joked and his eyes widen.

"H-he... Uhm... H-he...What..." He stuttered and I laughed again.

"I was joking J. No need to be protective" I stood up and open the box.

It's a black gown with white flowers on it. It's a simple and elegant gown. I don't know what to say because it's so beautiful. Kenneth's father must be rich I can tell this gown cost a lot.

"Wow! Try it on K" Julio said and I smiled at him and try the dress on.

When I came back to the living room wearing this beautiful dress I saw Julio's jaw dropped and Kenneth.

"Do I look pretty?" I ask them. Julio busy gawking at me and Kenneth walk towards me and kissed my crown.

"I say it's suits you though. Father was right it's really beautiful if you wear it" He said and sat down on the sofa. I twirl around like a princess.

I'm twenty-four and I still think I'm a princess.

"Wow. You look good" Julio said.

"Only good?" Kenneth elbow him playfully.

"I mean you look beautiful wonderful stunning awesome," He said laughing lightly.

"Yup. She sure is beautiful, wonderful, stunning, and awesome" Kenneth said and handed me high heel shoes.

"What's this?" I ask Kenneth and he shrugs.

"Its shoes of course," Julio said.

"I know that you idiot. I mean is why are you giving me this?" I face Kenneth again.

"Dad forgot to put it in the box that's why I gave this to you personally," He said.

"I swear your dad is going to spoil me with these gifts," I said giggling.

"You have no idea. If he meets you personally he will give you want, you want" He muttered the last sentence that I only heard was a 'Personally and you want"

"What?" I ask him and he just smiled at me.

"Nothing," He said he looked at his watch and kissed me in my crown one last time "I should get going, Now. I'll see you on Friday?" I nodded and he was gone.

"Did you already met his dad?" Julio asked me and sat down on the couch.

"Not yet. why?" I asked.

"Oh. Nothing I just assume that you two were close because of these gifts" I shrugged. "If you don't mind I'll sleep here tonight. I don't think Xavier will be happy if he knows I sent you home" I snort at the sound of his name.

"Why? Are you scared of him?" I ask and he shook his head.

"You won't understand. That guy has been through a lot when he was young. I'm his understanding friend and I understand him at all. You know what I mean" He said shrugging.

"Then tell me what happened to him so that I won't judge him," I said.

"Not my story to tell but it's for you to find out," He said putting his hands above his head before closing his eyes.

"Why can't you tell me?" I ask shaking him.

"Like I said it's not my story to tell but it's for you to find out," He said and I punched his shoulder and he chuckled.

"OK. Whatever. I'm going to fix the guess room" I yelled to him.

I changed into my pajamas before I fix the guess room.

I'm confused about what Julio said while I'm fixing the room.

I wanted to find out what happened to Xavier when he was young but I don't know-how. I can't just ask him this 'Hey, I wanted to asks what happened when you're young that turned you into a selfish, ruthless arrogant prick?' That's bullshit. Right?

The only thing that I keep thinking is about Xavier and his past.

Before I went to sleep.
