Twenty-Eight. 28.

Krystal.

Lucas was dumbfounded and stunned after watching the video clips of Mom's escapade. He stared at me occasionally like he didn't believe it.

Gradually, a smirk displayed on his lips as though he was beginning to enjoy it.

I couldn't fathom his expression. I was confused as to what he found funny in the video. I intended to ask what it was all about but pushed the thought aside and waited patiently for Courtney to come.

I had invited her over to Lucas' house to confide in. I now stay with Lucas for now, afraid of Mom's threat to kill me.

"Guess what? " he suddenly asked and I stared at him squarely.

"What? " I asked and he smirked.

"This is perfect. The video is strong evidence to hold against your mom and Dalton. This is a ticket to your freedom, " he said and smiled broadly, patting my shoulders lightly before turning back to the laptop and replaying the video.

I stared at him surprisingly and was left wondering how

I got the message from her look that she didn't come for peace. "Have a seat, Mrs Yolanda. What may I offer you? Wine? Juice? " I asked warmly. "Quite the act, Leigh-Anne. I am not here to be your guest, " she said harshly. "Okay, what are you here for then? " I asked in my nicest tone. "I am here to question, Anne. " she raised her voice slightly.

He stared at me, questioning my disapproval of the long-planned and anticipated wedding. "After an engagement party has been done? " He asked as if the engagement party went successful.

    Thirty-One. 31. I don't know why I have this great urge to just help Krystal. Every single step and day with her makes me want to help and get involved with her even more. She has been through a lot lately and she is pretty stressed. All these betrothal things and fighting against her mom have drained her coupled with the fact that she's pregnant. I just hope there won't be any complications resulting from the stress she has been through. I stared at her sleeping face as she lay on my lap. She's too innocent for all of the happenings in her life right now. She is too gullible even though she tries to act tough. I couldn't help but wonder why her mother or better still a mother would do terrible things to her family all for money and fame's sake.

    ONE 1.KRYSTALI couldn't think, my brain couldn't register what this cute stranger was doing to me, what he was doing to my body. I was drunk for sure. My mind could be playing games on me.He took my lips in, kissing me softly, sucking on my lower lips, making them boggy, I couldn't help but kiss him back. I couldn't comprehend, my mind was in a catastrophic state and all I could see was shadow. The only thing that filled my head, that clouded my mind was the images of Chris and the lady he was fucking beneath him, their moans. I was hurt. I let the tears flow freely from my eyes down to my lips, tasting its bitterness, the bitterness of heartbreak. The stranger licked on my tears, and on my lips he sucked like he owned it. In the dark room, the stranger pushed me lightly on the bed, laying me flat on my back. He unbuckled his pants before climbing on me, kissing me wholly. My mind, my heart, my brain wasn't stable. I'm hurt, I'm i

  • A Night In Vegas   Krystal/Lucas Vanowen - The dream

    TWO.2 These past few days have been a mess. I've been a mess. I stayed in bed not wanting to get out. I was still in total despair. My eyes were swollen due to excessive and uncontrollable tears. I cried for so long that my glands couldn't secrete more tears. Chris hasn't called since then making me sob more. Bastard! He shattered my heart. My mind, heart, and soul were pretty damaged. I haven't eaten since I came back from Vegas, I haven't got out of my room, my room was in total disorder. I've broken every breakable in the room, with the mindset of breaking Chris's heart as the same. I could barely contain my anger and pain and I passed them down to my innocent furniture.What Chris did to me was what I'd never imagined would happen. I didn't resume work at the office, I called my boss earlier to request more time, at least more days to clear my head and get over this Chris cheating act. Courteney didn't know I was back yet, I haven't p

She gave me a bone-breaking hug, choking me in the process. "Courtney…. I'm….. Choking…. I…. Can't breathe." I muffled before she released me, plastering my face with kisses. She was looking more cheerful, with the bright smiles she displayed only when she was anticipating a long-expected gist. Courtney can be a crazy bitch yunno. "How was the trip? How was Vegas? What is it like? Do you have fun? Where did you visit?" She asked hastentingly, bombarding me with questions, without letting me settle down first. "Courtney!!" She's not even giving room for rest, I just resumed and I wasn't ready to talk about anything yet, Chris and Vegas palaver would be the least of my thoughts this morning. Courtney stared at me with those puppy eyes of hers, sulkily appealing. "Courtne

    FOUR.4 I had enough chocolate cookies and wine at Courtney's place. She had forced me to eat them all and now I have a runny stomach. She wanted me to have tequila but I bluntly refused before I ended up in another sex escapade with a shadow here in New York. Courtney wanted me to spend the night but I had to leave. I have annoyed Mom a lot in the space of two days. I didn't tell Courtney about the cutie that has a resemblance with the shadow in Vegas, I wouldn't want her whining and awning in my ears like a cat. The cutie had introduced himself as Lucas Vanowen. Vanowen….. Vanowen, I've heard of that name sometimes before but I wasn't certain about it. Lucas didn't say anything himself but mentioned something about Las Vegas. Well, I wasn't paying attention. I was crushing on his voice. The mention of Las Vegas, made my heart race. Could he be the stranger that took……? No, no he might just be someone else, people do look alike.There are different people w

    Chapter five. Everything in here looks sophisticated, more like a luxury. The interior decor was fantabulous, everything was to die for. I composed myself quickly when I heard the thumping of feet on the stairs and hush voices following closely. The Sullivan- I had come to properly apologize for the surly attitude of my daughter towards them the other night. I would have come with Krystal but she locked her doors from the inside. Stubborn.Krystal has been too stubborn and ill-mannered ever since she came back from Vegas but her churlish attitude isn't going to ease my desire for wealth and fame or make me call off the deal. The Sullivans must and would be my in-laws. It's just a pity that Wallace wasn't alive to see this. "Oh! My soon-to-be in-laws, I'm so sorry about my daughter's unruly and churlish behavior the last time you visited," I pleaded with a fake smile, facing Yolanda. "It's okay Anne.

  • A Night In Vegas   Dalton's Baffled.

    Twenty-seven. 27. Ever since the last time Krystal visited, I have noticed the unsudden and discomfort in Dalton. He's acting weird and always seems to get lost every single minute. The way he jolted out of reverie anytime he's being talked to, is obscure. He feels insecure at most like he's got something chasing him in his head. I don't understand my husband anymore. "What is wrong with you, Dalton? Are you okay? " I asked daringly. He stared at me with remorse in his eyes, like he was apologizing for something. "I am fine, Yolanda. I just need to be alone, " he replied with a low voice. I wasn't satisfied with his response, so I sat down next to him holding his shoulders. "Dalton, talk to me. What is going on? I am tired of being in the dark. Tell me what is going on with you? " I was pressured. I want to know what is going on. I know for sure that things aren't ok and Dalton is only trying hard to make it look like things are good. But

  • A Night In Vegas   Krystal's visit to Dalton.

    Twenty-six. 26. Krystal. I waited patiently but uncomfortably in his living room. I had come to see Dalton. The maid ushered me in exactly fifteen minutes ago but I haven't seen Dalton. Just as I contemplated leaving, Dalton came in. The devil's attendant. Mom is the devil herself. I swallowed down nothing. Since I knew Dalton, I have never spoken to him directly or been in an enclosed space with him alone. He looks bigger than I last saw him. Dalton in his huge self landed on the last stair, smiling broadly immediately after he saw me. Is it just my eyes or that Chris looks nothing like his parents? I kept mute and started sheepishly at Dalton until he got in the living room with me. "Good afternoon sir, " I greeted, blinking rapidly. "Krystal? You requested to see me? Or do you want to speak with Chris? " He asked impatiently, not even responding to my greetings. "No. I am not here for Chris. I am here to see you, Mr. Dalton, " I said politely givin

  • A Night In Vegas   Krystal confronted Anne.

    Twenty-five. 25.I got home with a heavy heart. I knew no rest. My conscience judged me as though I was the one who killed Dad. I felt bad and responsible for his death but then, I am also a victim. A victim of mom's madness and insatiable cravings for powers. I sat to think, if I felt so guilty that Dad died, how would Mom feel or Dalton? I mean they were the ones involved in his death and yet they are living a peaceful life without any guilt. Why did Dad's spirit not fight back like the way I see it in movies? He should have fought back. This is the height of wickedness itself, for a woman to kill her husband. What did Dad do to deserve such from Mom and Dalton? The question throbbed in my heart and I urged to know why. Why did Mom do it? I spur up out of the room, out to Mom's room. She has a lot of answering to do, only she holds the answer to my questions. I barged into her room without even knocking because I was full of rage. "Krystal, what the… " she jumped

" "Dumping his body is going to leak us out, burning him up isn't a good idea. We are going to melt him off his bones with this acid before burning up his bones. " Anne said pointing to some gallons of acid in the corners of the room. Her face wasn't visible but I could tell anywhere that it was her voice. "At least that would be better and easier to clean up. " "Ahhh! " I screamed, crying. I held onto Courtney. "It's okay, Krystal, " Courtney consoles crying too. "How could Mom be so wicked? Did you see what they did to Dad's body? Did you see how Mom killed Dad? " "Krystal, it is okay. ""How can it be okay, Courtney? " I asked rhetorically. This is what Mom has been hiding? How has Mom been comfortable after all these years, after doing something as dirty and evil as this?

    Twenty- Three. 23.Mom was already out of her skin by the time we got home. Lucas wanted me to stay back but after their heated argument, I had to leave with mom. I know Lucas was furious and so was mom. We both got to our rooms when we got home, silently not uttering a word to each other. I've expected her to nag and abuse and curse but rather she was unusually quiet, which feared me. Mom can be a crook but sometimes, I don't just understand her. Her silence can be worse than the growling of a hungry tiger. It looks like she's going to strike me soon with bad news. I have to act fastGoing into mom's room and finding out what was inside the drawer is going to be the only way out. It is going to be my weapon for defeat. But how I will penetrate through her doors will be the problem. Ever since she caught me sneaking out of her room, the security has become tighter. She doesn't trust me as much as I don't trust her, but I will find a way. The next day, I tiptoed towards mom
