"I've been analyzing our social media engagement numbers," she stated firmly. "Unfortunately, we're not gaining ground."Leaning in, I was fascinated. "What are you trying to say? Didn't our previous rally go smoothly?"Her response came as such, "Although it had an initial boost in engagement, we have observed a decline. Hence, we must seek ways to rekindle interest," she stated while tapping her fingers on the keyboard".I proposed, "Let's arrange a subsequent event - one that showcases the pe

Elena POVAs the silhouette in the darkness pulled a sly grin, I felt my heart surge. It turned out to be Cherry Hill, Blaine's initial flame. "Oh look what we have here," she jeered as she made her way into view under the spotlight.Asking Cherry what she was doing there, I attempted to maintain a steady tone."Simply relishing the performance. You both seem remarkably intimate," she retorted, her gaze sparkling mischievously."Go away, Cherry. We're not interested in playing games," snapped Marcus as he guarded me defensively."My dear, this is anything but a game," she declared with heavy sarcasm. "I've been privy to some rather interesting details regarding your beloved initiative.""Cherry, tell me your desire," Marcus stated with tense fists.Her expression calculating, she responded: "I possess information that has the potential to either benefit or harm you."I questioned her motives and asked, "What is your reason for helping us?"Cherry twirled a strand of hair around her fi

Marcus POVAs the gunshot reverberated through the air, it seemed to herald an ominous fate. Suddenly alert and tense with a rush of adrenaline, I whipped around to face the masked figures whose demeanor had now changed from self-assuredness to bewilderment. My heart was thudding as I demanded in a loud voice: "What on earth just occurred?"The leader shouted, "Keep your distance!" as he pointed his gun at Blaine. His eyes betrayed hints of terror - clearly the sudden outburst had caught him off-guard.With my heart racing, I yelled Blaine's name and swiftly positioned myself between him and the assailant. "We must flee this place at once!" I exclaimed with a surge of adrenaline.Blaine commanded the crowd to calm down, his voice unwavering despite the heightened atmosphere.

Blaine breathed out in a daze of astonishment and bewilderment.After hearing about the attack, my heart was racing as I replied, "Yes it's me. I came right away."Blaine inquired with an aura of tension, "What brings you here?""I needed to witness it firsthand. There's a lot that has gone awry, and I believe it is high time we have a conversation," I stated while glancing back and forth at Marcus, Elena, and Cherry who remained quiet in the distance."You want to talk about what?" Marcus challenged, defensively crossing his arms. "After being in a coma and suddenly showing up now? We thought you were...""I understand," I reassured him, my voice now calm and composed. "Although he may be gone, I am alive. After all, I was hospitalized for the purpose of recuperating.""What do you mean recover? Is it from your accident?" Elena asked, her eyes narrowing."I unearthed somethi

Camilla's POV“What! Why do you look like me?” a gasp escaped my mouth looking at the lady, who looked exactly like me, in front of me.“That should be my question, why do you look like me, woman?” the lady questioned, and my eyes widened in surprise when I understood what was going on.A doppelganger? A doppelganger was the best bet because the lady in front of me looked so much like me, and my mind went back to what happened this early morning before I encountered this scenario.The sound of loud music blasted through my room as I swayed my hips to the beat while singing along, and also getting dressed to go out. That was my routine while growing up, because I dreamt of also being a superstar one day, and people listened to my songs, but I stopped dancing immediately when I noticed that the music had gone off.“Snap out of it, Camilla!” I heard my mother scream, and I felt a slap on my butt. I groaned in pain as I turned to face my mother, and her angry face got me smiling so wide.

Ariana's POV“What do you mean you have to go see someone?” I heard my fiance ask, and I hissed in frustration wondering why he never understood a word I said.“It is just as I said. I have to meet someone today, and I don't think you can stop me,” I deadpanned, and went to sit in front of the vanity table while touching up my makeup.“You are one cocky princess, aren't you?" He mocked, and my grip on my make-up brush tightened hearing his demeaning words but that's Blaine Sanders for you.Blaine Sanders is my fiance, and we are getting married in a week's time, and just like other couples you might think that we are brimming with love but we are different. We couldn't even stand the sight of each other, but that was only for him though. I could stare at Blaine for the whole day because he was the man you could call an eye candy. He was blessed with awesome features that made him stand out among his peers.“Are you even listening to what I am saying?” he asked standing beside me, and

Camilla's POVI walked towards the door after seeing my mom and seeing the grave look on his face, I knew all was not well.“Are you the patient's guardian?” the middle-aged doctor asked me, and I nodded my head slowly. “I am sorry to inform you but your mother has stage 2 stomach cancer,” he announced, and a gasp left my mouth.My eyes got misty at the news, and I felt sorry for my mom. How could she have coped with the symptoms without me getting to know?“Doctor, please save her!” I begged, and he explained that the cancer hadn't spread, and it could be operated on. “But the money for the surgery is $50,000 , and the follow up care will be quite expensive”, he explained, and my face went pale after hearing his words.I walked out of the doctor's room, and I had run out of energy after hearing the bills, but I knew I had to think of ways to find it.“Get your act together, Camilla! Your mother has to live, and…" I was saying but I trailed off knowing there was no way I could cough o

Camilla's POVI walked gently towards the hospital room, and I was surprised to find the girl who had the same face as me lying lifelessly on the bed with different machines attached to her body.“She is going to survive right?” I asked the cold man beside me almost choking on my tears, and he sighed. “Yes, but not soon, and that's why I need you,” he says, and I scoff at hearing his words.He was briefed on what he wanted from me, and I couldn't believe that he could do that to his fiance.How could he want me to pretend to be his bride on the day of their wedding? Does that even make sense?“I don't think I can do that, your fiance is still sick, and I don't think…” I was saying but he cut me off.“I am sure that is what she would also want this, better than having all the country sympathizing with her she is going to want this too," he says, but I wasn't convinced.There was no way a woman would be comfortable with another woman dating her man, and I knew that Ariana was going to b
