Cordelia woke up the next morning with David on her mind.

On one hand, she was relieved that she had been able to pay both bills before the deadlines.

On the other side, the decision that she had just made has been eating deep into her conscience.

‘How will I keep such a secret from someone that loves me so much?’ She thought silently.

“David loves me so much. I can’t do this to him.” Cordelia said, with tears almost rolling down her eyes.

‘I always have to make such hard decisions, and I always end up sad. Oh, what a life.’ She thought.

Cordelia decided that she was not willing to keep such a big secret away from David, and so she called him, wanting to come clean.

So she picked up her phone and called David.

“Hey Baby.” David answered.

“David. Good afternoon.” Cordelia said in a low tone.

“Are you good? What’s wrong with your voice?” David asked.

“I’m fine David. Can we meet today? I’d be at the park behind our campus. There’s something I need us to talk about..”

    Coming from the fainting goat, Cordelia stormed her way through the glass doors downstairs. She was going to take the elevator to her apartment floor, before she was interrupted.“Good Afternoon Miss Cordelia. A letter came in for you. It’s in front of your door..” One of the security men at her apartment said.“A letter? From who? Anyways, thank you very much. Good afternoon.” She responded.The security man had dropped the yellow envelope for Cordelia on the brown mat in front of her door.“Who could this be from?” Cordelia said to herself as she tried to open her apartment door.There was no address on the letter, only a little brown seal that held the envelopes flap tightly.Cordelia let out a deep sigh. The thought of what just happened at the bar was still poking at her mind. “How could she do such a thing to me? She knows I don’t like that man! She knows what he tried to do to me.”Cordelia was both sad and mad at the current state of things.She opened the curtains and droppe

    Cordelia could barely even find sleep through the night.‘I can’t believe I survived the night’ Cordelia said to herself in a low tone as she turned to her right side, waking up.Aside from staying up to read for the exam that she had, Cordelia could only think about David.It was 7:50am, and Cordelia still laid in bed, with David running through her mind like a track athlete.As she reluctantly rose from her bed, Cordelia couldn't shake the memory of David's pained expression the last time they met, his conflicted eyes piercing through her soul.She knew she had hurt him deeply, but she couldn't ignore the overwhelming need that pushed her toward such desperate measures of survival.Over love, Cordelia’s choice was to survive.Cordelia got on the bus that was to drop her at school, her mind ravaged by so many emotions.Her heart was fluttering with anticipation and her mind was covered in so much doubt. ‘Will David be at the gate? We’re still friends at least.’ She thought to hersel

    Jared arrived at the entrance of the bar, his frustration evident on his face as he addressed the bouncer."Excuse me, is McKayla inside?" he inquired, his tone revealing a sense of urgency. The bouncer, recognizing Jared, greeted him politely. "Welcome, sir," he responded, allowing him to enter unhindered. Sensing something amiss, another bouncer discreetly followed Jared into the bar. Storming through the crowded venue, Jared attracted curious glances, but no one dared to impede his progress or lay a hand on him. His determination was palpable in the air, his eyes bloodshot from a mixture of anger and distress. Without hesitation, Jared barged into McKayla's soundproof office, the door swinging open with force. The bouncer who had trailed him stood at the entrance, uncertain of what was about to unfold. McKayla, seated behind her desk, attempted to maintain an air of composure despite the flicker of fear dancing in her eyes. Deep down, she knew why Jared had come. It was a fear

    Cordelia tried so hard to hold back her tears as she walked home back from school. The weight of her emotions pressed heavily on her shoulders, making each step feel more laborious than the last. "Get it together, girl," she whispered to herself, sniffling and trying to regain her composure. Her journey from school to home would take up to an hour on foot, but she welcomed the solitude and the opportunity it provided to clear her head. As Cordelia walked, memories of her family and friends flashed through her mind, offering a fleeting sense of comfort in the midst of her current situation. 'I'm so tired. If anyone had ever said I'd go through something like this, I'd have probably laughed it off. But look at me now, moving from frying pan to fire,' Cordelia thought to herself silently, her thoughts filled with weariness and disbelief. Lost in her thoughts, Cordelia suddenly noticed a car had stopped by her side, interrupting her train of thought. Her instincts kicked in, and she q

    Cordelia sat on the edge of her bed, her heart pounding in her chest as the weight of uncertainty bore down on her the following morning.‘How was I able to fall asleep?’ She uttered silently.The unexpected visit from an unknown person yesterday, claiming to be her friend, had stirred up a storm of fear and apprehension within her.‘If it was McKayla, I’m sure that she would have come upstairs. Only McKayla and David know my house.’ She uttered silently.‘Could it be David?’ Cordelia said with a confused look on her face.“No, it can’t be. I doubt he even still has my address.” Cordelia said to herself in a low tone. Immediately, Cordelia picked up her phone and tried calling McKayla.Fortunately, her phone rang.“Hello McKayla.”“Cordelia, we don’t meet until 11:00 AM, this is just 10:00 AM.”“Oh no, no, I’m not calling about that. Were you here yesterday? Did you come to my house?” Cordelia asked, pacing back and forth in her bedroom.“No I didn’t. I was very busy yesterday. Why?

    Cordelia gently, moved closer to the big beautiful gate holding her small black purse in her hand as she walked.When she got to the gate, she showed the gateman the gold and black card that the driver had given her. On it was written boldly, “ACCESS”.He looked at her thoroughly through the holes in the gate and let her in without any questions asked. All he did, was point her to the direction that she was supposed to go, based on the card that she was holding.As she walked, she admired the big trees and blooming flowers that surrounded the house. It seemingly reminded her of the time when she used to play with her dad every Tuesday immediately she got back from school. She was almost lost in deep thought again.She had the barking of the two German shepherd dogs and the two Great Danes to thank, for bringing her back to reality.As she approached the door, Cordelia could almost feel her heart finding it’s way out through her throat.Despite the fact that she was not a virgin, Cord

    Jared sat down on the chair beside the big white bed and spoke again.“Let’s get down to business Cordelia. We have no time to waste.” With a sheepish smile brewing on his face.“Jared please.” Cordelia said with her head lowered, but Jared gave no response.After that moment of silence, Cordelia started off by taking off her shoes as Jared stared at her.She removed the left arm of her gown strap and proceeded to remove the other one. Tears were almost already running down her eyes as she was undressing.Suddenly, she heard Jared say, “stop.”“Please stop.”“Stop Cordelia.”Jared was really not going to have anything to do with her.At least, not now. “Wear your clothes properly and put your shoes back on.” Immediately, she asks him, like a child that thinks she has done something wrong. “Is this not what you wanted? Is this not what you had me brought here for?” However, Jared stared at Cordelia, this time too, with no response. Suddenly, he stands up and walks out of the room le

    Jared scanned the house with his eyes to see if an intruder had entered.“Stay behind me Cordelia.” Jared said as he approached the kitchen shelf to take a knife.“What are you going to do with that?” Cordelia asked as she held tightly unto his black Calvin Klein button up shirt.“Just stay behind me.” Jared said is an authoritative voice.Suddenly, one of Jared’s dogs ran into the kitchen again, colliding into another vase.“Oh. It was the dog.” Jared stood still with a relieved look on his face.“Who could have let Bruno out in such a hot weather?”“Bruno! Come here.” Jared called out to his dog, pulled it by his collar and took it to the cage.All this while, Cordelia could only stand and be thankful that those unknown men had not found their way to this place again.“Cordelia? Hope you’re good? What’s the matter?” Jared asked, seeing that Cordelia had rested her head on the white kitchen table.“No, it’s nothing… I’m doing okay. I was waiting for you.” Cordelia said.“Jared, when

    Hey, hey, Cordelia… Everything is going to be alright. You just need to relax Cordelia… Relax… Take a deep breath” Jared said to her in a soft tone.“Wipe your tears dear. You’re going to be okay.”“Show me, where did you find the feather?”Cordelia pointed at the mat in front of her door in the hallway, as she wiped her tears with the other hand.Immediately, Jared let out a deep sigh and pointed Cordelia towards the bed so she could sit down.“You’re going to be fine Cordelia, just take a deep breath.” Jared said as he wiped her tears off.“Jared, I don’t want to die now.”“You know, even if I will, I don’t want to die without knowing who killed my parents. I don’t want to die without finding them and making them pay.”“They’re the reason why I’m in such a mess. They’re the reason why my life has seemingly turned upside down, because if my parents were here, I wouldn’t be facing this much pain Jared. I won’t.”Jared let out a deep sigh as he listened to Cordelia. All he could think

    SAKI knew that as Jared had pronounced judgment upon Brian, there would be no turning back.All SAKI could do was to shake his head.“Your decision cannot be questioned, my Lord.”“But allow me to ask, why Master?” There was thick silence in the air after SAKI had asked Jared that question.If a pin hit the ground at that point, they’d hear.Few minutes later, the car came to a halt. As they drove earlier, Jared had received a call that his new shipment of Meth had arrived, and was ready to be moved into the streets.But before he came down from the car, he looked SAKI in the eyes through the mirror in the car.“Your friend spilled blood that I treasure.”“He made me bury my own. The only one that I truly had.”“Your friend took light away from me. He made me live in the darkness.”As he spoke, his tone began to rise in anger.“SAKI! Your friend took away my eyes.”“He left me blind!”“SAKI! I will take everything that belongs to him.”“I will set his world on fire and make him watc

    “Yes sir. That was Brian sir. I’m 100% sure.”SAKI answered in a tone that sounded like he was puzzled but with a smile on his face.Jared stood there, quiet, like he was just weaning off the anesthesia from a surgery.Suddenly, he grabbed SAKI tightly by the collar of his shirt and pulled him up. “What did you call the name of the boy you said you saw?”“His…his.. name was Brian sir… sorry… his name is Brian sir, SAKI said shaking like a fish outside water.”“Are you sure? Jared asked in a strong tone.”“Yes sir, I’m sure, SAKI said in a stammering tone.”Immediately Jared let go of his shirt and SAKI fell back to the bean bag where he was previously seated.‘No no no… he may not be the one. Relax Jared. Relax.’ Jared said to himself.The last time Jared heard that name, was the day that Adeena, his sister, had hurriedly left the house after her birthday.Her day of death and Absence.The day that Injured Jared deep into the chambers of his soul.It wasn’t a day that Jared was willi

    The time of execution had come.The night is here!The night draped itself over the city like a thick shroud, concealing the clandestine operations that the Seven-Eyed Dragon Mafia clan wanted to perpetuate.Jared, clad in black, stood with a calm yet fiery determination in his eyes. He knew that tonight would mark a pivotal moment in his life, one that would determine the course of his vendetta against Senator Ivan.‘Nothing is going to happen to you Cordelia. Nothing. Absolutely nothing.’ He said to himself in a low tone.As the minutes ticked away, the silence in the room grew heavier, suffocating, as if the very air held its breath in anticipation. Jared's heart pounded in his chest, the rhythmic beat driving his resolve even further. The time for action was at hand.Ian and Scott, his loyal confidants, stood beside him, their eyes unwavering, fully committed to carrying out their leader's bidding. Jared could always rely on their unyielding support, forged through shared experie

    “Good Morning Jared, call me when you get this.” This was the message that Jared got from his uncle Jared. Immediately Jared was awake and he saw the message, he called El-Azul.“Good Morning Uncle. I saw your text. Will you help me now?”“Relax Jared. Relax. You want blood to flow, and it will. But we must be careful. You know that none of this must tie back to us. We have too much stuff to move, so we can’t be held back by little matters like this.”“I understand uncle, but Senator Ivan has been threatening me for a long time now. I want him to pay for his words.”El Azul let out a laugh as Jared spoke.“Not even his actions, you want him to pay for his words. My brother has raised a tiger. I’m impressed.”“But, use your power wisely Jared. And clean up everything carefully when you’re done.” El-Azul said in a calm yet authoritative tone.“I will, uncle. I will.” Jared said with a suspicious smile on his face.“Does this mean that I can throw bullets?”“Yes boy. Let me know what yo

    Cordelia and Jared's investigation took them down a twisting path, a path that revealed layers of intrigue and danger that lurked beneath the surface. They wanted to delve deeper into the mysteries surrounding the pocket watch, the black feather, and the Veil, seeking answers and the means to dismantle the clandestine organization.Their first lead brought them to the dimly lit study of Professor Malcolm Everett, an eccentric antiquities expert known for his vast knowledge of obscure artifacts and secret societies. Immediately they entered the study, the professor greeted them with a warm smile, his eyes sparkling with curiosity.“Ah, Jared, I've been expecting you. And you must be Cordelia.” Professor Everett said, gesturing for them to take a seat amidst the stacks of ancient tomes and artifacts that filled his study. “I hear that you've stumbled upon a mystery that goes far deeper than you realize.” Professor Malcolm turned and said to Cordelia.Cordelia's heart raced with antic

    Cordelia arrived at Jared's house, after journeying for two hours.Her heart pounding with a mix of apprehension and hope.“I hope Jared helps me solve this. I need my life back.” Cordelia said, heaving a deep sigh.She needed answers, guidance, and most importantly, someone she could trust, and here she was, trying to take her chance at Jared.As she entered the familiar surroundings of Jared's office, she noticed the air of seriousness on his face. His usually warm smile that she had seen him display with people was replaced with a furrowed brow and a thoughtful expression.‘He never really smiles when I’m around him anyways, so why am I even bothered? There are weightier matters.’ Cordelia said to herself.Jared motioned for Cordelia to sit down on the chair in front of him, as he took the seat across from her. “Have your seat Cordelia.” Jared said in his firm voice.The room was filled with an air of anticipation as they both braced themselves for the discussion that lay ahead

    The night was heavy with darkness as Cordelia tossed and turned in her sleep. Dreams haunted her, twisted and distorted, mirroring the chaos of her waking life. She found herself in a maze of shadows, pursued by nameless figures, unable to escape their relentless pursuit. Each corner she turned only led her deeper into the labyrinth, trapping her in a web of fear.But amidst the turmoil, a faint glimmer of hope emerged. In the midst of her nightmare, Cordelia heard a familiar voice calling out to her, a voice filled with warmth and reassurance. It was Mr. Smith's voice, soothing and calm, guiding her through the darkness."Cordelia, my dear, don't be afraid. I am here with you," the voice whispered gently.Startled, Cordelia opened her eyes and found herself back in her apartment, bathed in the soft glow of dawn. The remnants of tears stained her cheeks, evidence of the emotional storm she had endured. She sat up, wiping her face, and took a deep breath to steady herself.It was a
