Stacy dressed casually. She had a black huge hoodie over white jeans trousers and a tiny white bag. Her sneakers were black with a touch of silver on its sole. She stood in Infront of the door, her hand on the knob, about to open the door but turned when she heard Jason's voice.

"We are going with you then" Jason blurted and Stacy's grip loosened on the door knob.

"We? What does he mean by "we"?

It was like he read her thoughts. He walked over to Blaze who was seated at the game stand and pulled her closer to him. The close body contact made Stacy's heart skip and a trench of jealousy flashed on her face. She staggered a bit and tucked her hair behind her ear. "Oh? I didn't expect that"

Blaze looked at Jason's mean face. Does he want to go to this length to stay with her? I'm a bit jealous. She pouted her lips and folded her arms.

"Go change, I'll be waiting over the couch. Five minutes" Stacy uttered and went over to the couch mumbling. "Why must they be so close?" A sly smile cov

He needs to speak with her... urgently.Immediately, he saw Alya through the window, he took a deep breath, walked up to the door and opened it. Alya had this blank expression on her face which he responded with a fake smile before letting her in and shutting the door. "What do you want to take?" He asked, staring at the quiet Alya."What do you want Samuel? You can't just call me out by this time for nothing?" She crossed her arm below her chest, arching her brow at him."Loosen up, babe. I've missed you. That's my reason." He smiled awkwardly and sat beside her. "Don't you remember all those fun times we had together" he tried to kiss her neck when Alya interrupted him by requesting water. Backing off, he nodde

    Matteo sat down on his chair looking quite confused as he remembered all that happened. He could see himself watching Stacy while she observed some couple seated on a chair. She walks out grumpily to his car, the expression on her face was evidence of the anger that burns within her. Matteo stood there and gasped before going back to the place they stood before. It turned out that the couple they had observed was Jason and Blaze, the girl he saw the other day at his house. He walked up to them and greeted them. He observed Blaze's skin with bruises and immediately she covered it up and flashes a smile his way. "I didn't know you guys came""Yeah, we did, but couldn't finish the movie" Blaze replied, smiling awkwardly."Where's Stacy?"

"She's in my car"On getting to his car, he saw Stacy searching through his files. Jason came closer and opened the door, d

    Footsteps could be heard from the extreme side of the garage. Their faces tilted to the sound and they met Jason coming towards them. Samuel stood upright, with narrowed eyes wondering who he was, As he came closer to them, his face became clearer and one of the pictures he saw in Alya's phone, flashed in. "Jason?" He thought still staring at him until he caught up to them. He lowered to Stacy's level and helped her with the papers on the floor. "How long have you been there?" She countered with curiosity all over her. Jason ignored the question and requested for the file to put the papers in. "That's the Samuel." He scoffed and stood up when he was done with arranging the file. "I can't remember telling you anything about him." Stacy mumbled as she slowly rose to her feet, behind Jason. Jason arched his brow at Samuel who stood confused, waiting for him to talk. Samuel tilted his head to where Stacy "Can we talk? Please." Stacy couldn't hold herself again, she walked out with the

    Stacy nodded slowly and her gaze lowered to the floor while Jason paced around with his hand across his face. "Why didn't I get that part? It must have been hard for you, seeing her again."Stacy sighed and looked up to the perturbed Jason, releasing a chuckle "Don't worry, she's no longer here. At least, I won't get to see her for a while.""But I still don't understand," Jason muttered and turned to Stacy. "Alya helped me find you when you got lost. Was it because of me or you?" Stacy twirled in her chair, playing with a pen. "It was you, of course. Probably wanted to please you. She likes you." The look Jason gave her, made her laugh contentiously. "What?" Queried Stacy. He shook his head and folded his arm still wondering, while she admired him from afar, smiling at the thought of him. ********************************Blaze dragged her feet to the kitchen. Her eyes were dimmed and her hair messy, regret engulfed her. "Why am I so stupid?" She hit her head consecutively on the wa

    AT THE CARTEL"What are you guys doing?" Xavier interrupted a group of boys who had been making noise since morning."Steph got himself a dating app." The group made funny noises and Steph sighed feeling quite embarrassed. "That's waste of time. Why would someone want to fall in love with someone he doesn't know? Is that how the so-called love works?" He rolled his eyes and pulled out a chair before sitting down. "It's not easy to match up too." Steph muttered, gaining a glance from Xavier who turned to his phone "So you think... I bet I would get lots of matches, if I get that app." He bragged and the boys made pathetic faces at Steph, knowing how he has been trying to get a match since morning. He looked at them and splutters before being covered in shame. "I bet you won't."The boys turned to Xavier with slacked jaws. "I will." replied Xavier The tension between the two was becoming thick. The boys noticed it and one of them banged on the table. "Bet! Bet!" He nodded at others

    "Any news from Dre and Zan?" A feminine voice echoed in a room of extreme darkness. A young man stood in the centre with his head lowered to the floor. The moonlight seeped into the room through the wrecked iron window. His side face could be seen as well as the sweat dripping from his forehead. His heart thudded greatly, because of his inability to give a pleasing answer to the question directed to him. He hesitated before raising his head to the darkness In front of him. "It's been weeks and we have not heard from them""That means they failed... Failed their mission to capture Blaze." The voice came again and quite hoarse this time. The man abruptly lowered himself to the ground and his head resting on it. "Forgive me, mi lady. I have failed as well-" a dagger flew, past the man and thrust deep into the wooden door. "Capture Blaze! I won't pardon this incompetence again"The man hurriedly stood up, bowed and left the room in fear. The woman left her position and walked to the wind

    Jason walked in and beckoned on the girls to come for a meeting. "We have a situation." He announced and the girls watched him with keen interest. "After visiting Mr. Peters today. He tipped me off information." He shut his eyes and exhaled and that might lead us to something concerning Matteo." Stacy adjusted on the couch and leaned forward to get the gist. "We are to search for a man with a huge deep scar from his shoulder to his upper arm, at all the taverns, clubs and bars we can find down the street." "Even her?" Blaze asked Jason while her eyes rested on Stacy, who took glances at Jason and Blaze."Of course, I can do it!" Mouthed Stacy and Blaze arched her brows at her. "Stacy will go with you and I will go alone, ok with that?" "Better.""A little problem, I have to meet Bethany's tomorrow by 8 pm, it's her birthday tomorrow." "Sure," Jason replied and left them in the living room. Stacy stared at Blaze before asking her a question. "How are you feeling now?""I'm ok."

Sirens could be heard from afar. Edna's eyes bulged. "You called the cops on me? You!" She shot toward Jason and jumped off the rooftop. Jason made to run after her when Stacy hugged him, holding him back. "Please, don't. Don't chase after her." Her voice cracked. Jason lowered his face to her in awe. "You want her to escape? She's a Mafian queen!""And my mom... Please."Jason stared at her dumbstruck, panting. He swallowed nothing and slid his gaze to see Edna, igniting her car engine to escape.

They commanded and all of them surrendered, an ambulance arrived shortly and Blaze, alongside Bethany was moved in by the medics. Mr Torres came out from his hiding place, and an eerie chill slid through his veins accompanied by goosebumps crawling over his flesh.All the men were handcuffed and pushed into the truck. The lady looked irritated, while thinking on how to communicate to Edna.***************Jason came down to see some men guarding Amor house. On stealthy footsteps, he got off the truck to them.

The two brothers came together, their backs against each other with readied fists.******************Bethany threw a stone across, the men got distracted and one of them followed the sound of the stone while the other kept guarding the door.

She had different piercing filled with black studs and dangling earrings. Her hair was packed in a ponytail, with dark shades shoved into the upper part.

    "Dad!" Stacy couldn't believe it. The corner of Jason's eyes crinkled as he watched the two. Doctor Axel stood there with a smile on his face.Seeing the confusion on Jason's face, Axel eased the situation for him. "He's Mr Torres, my patient, but wait, is that Stacy? Stacy Torres?"

They have been discussing a lot of things until he noticed the beautiful ring on her finger. Stacy saw how her dad gazed at the ring and flaunted it at him with a wide smile."It's an engagement ring, I got engaged today!""Really?""Yes." Her cheeks flushed at her pronouncement.

    Jeremy was jogging delightfully, his pods plugged into his ears, he was experiencing this happiness he couldn't fathom until he saw Alya, coming in the opposite direction. When they got close enough to greet themselves, he brushed by her without a backward glance. Alya paused and turned with disbelieving eyes. "Did he just pass me without saying hi?" She asked rhetorically, her brows hung up. She gasped and continued her jogging with a perturbed mind. Jeremy exhaled feeling so relieved that he could pass without saying anything. "I pulled it off." He smiled and hastened his steps to prepare for today's work.At the company, he met Bethany smiling nonstop as she listened to her music with an earpod. "Good morning Beth!" He greeted and she quickly lowered her music volume. "What's up, Jerry?" He squinted his eyes and folded his arms. Curiously filling his veins."I should be asking you that, you are incredibly happy." She blushed at the statement. "Well, I am. So... What about the lad

    Jason pulled out a chair and sat down, facing his laptop. He dug his hands into his pocket to take out a flash drive. Staring blankly at it and turning it around his fingers, he inserted it into the laptop. It was the video of the day, Crystal died. How did he get the video?FLASHBACKWhile on the ground, groaning at the pain he was feeling, he saw a clip laying on the floor. The clip was a few inches away from Stone's leg. Jason crawled and got up to his leg. He gripped it when Stone made to run in and stylishly dragged the clip as well as sand and dirt into his fist."Don't go in, we are not done yet." He said. Stone kicked away his grip and ran into his office while he lowered his face to the ground so tired and relieved.***********It began to display on the screen but a scene he wasn't shown then, popped up first. It turned out the clip was shortened before. Dark under the tunnel was a man, who pulled the trigger and shot the same time Jason had shot. The plan was to make a vid

    The harshness of the light had him blinking, Xavier darted his weak eyes to see a white bedsheet up above his chest. Wide-eyed, he shifted and yanked it off him. An IV needle was stuck into his wrist... And then he finally realised he was on a hospital bed in a ward. His lid lowered and he saw a head resting beside the bed. He blinked several times, trying to remember what happened before now until Bethany raised her face and drifted into a gentle smile. "You are awake." She yawned and leaned forward while he moved backwards. He shut his eyes and exhaled. "How long have I been here?""A night.""A night... and you didn't sleep here, did you?" He said this lowering his legs to the floor. Bethany ignored the question, of course, she slept. She stood up to leave and call a doctor when he gripped her hand. "Who brought me here?"She scratched her nape nervously, attempting to find words to reply. "Your brother did..." He loosened his grip, unsure of the emotions that ran through him,

    Jason made his way across the room, his eyes shooting lasers. Some men ran inside to stop him but got shot before they could even get to him. Where is Stacy? "Matteo?" She looked into his eyes, unsure of what to feel. Happy? Or Scared? She leaned back to the wall, her gaze on the floor. He watched how her countenance changed and scoffed. Then his eyes moved from her face to her injured spots including her sole. He blinked and loomed over her, carrying her in a bridal style. "Oh." She mouthed and nervously tilted her face to Matteo whose face was strangely calm. "Hold my neck, so you won't fall." She bobbed her head and off they went.****************A man groaned and rolled off the ground. Stone's men backed away as they saw the man lying motionless, wondering if he was dead. They lifted their faces to see Blaze and other men behind her. She smirked and cracked her knuckles. "Guys, let's kick their ass'es."
