MELANI’S P.O.V

I dipped the towel inside the bowl of cold water and squeeze it gently before moving it to Mr Gordon’s face.

I wipe his forehead with the towel and I watch him breathe soundly through his patted mouth that opened slightly.

Earlier, after kissing me on my lips and calling out the name “Selena” I know he's not himself and I'm not mad at him.

But a part of me is angry at him for not seeing me for who I am.

After much struggle, he finally fall asleep with his head on my lap.

I went downstairs to fetch a bowl from the kitchen and a bottle of cold water from the fridge to wipe his sweaty forehead.

I couldn't sleep as different thoughts run through my mind.

‘What if he wakes up tomorrow and forgets about everything that's happening now?’ I thought with a sad look plastered on my face and I couldn't help the sighs that follow.

‘What if he gets angry at me again, for touching his face?’ I groan when I couldn't stop thinking.

    The purring of a cat wakes Kayla from her deep sleep. She yawns and covers her mouth with the back of her hand. She rolls her eyes tiredly and stretches her figure lazily on the affluent bed that she sleeps on. “Ahh!” she winches in pain when her hand mistakenly hit the side of her face. She brings her hand up to her face and rubs the side of her face, with her thumb. Suddenly, something jumps on her and she sprang up to her two feet, slapping off whatever thing jumped on her with her left hand. She moves her hand to the side of her body, attempting to bring out a handgun, but seems surprised when she couldn't feel it. She stares at her body to see that she's clad in a white baggy nightie that swallows her body. Her mouth twisted in surprise, couldn't remember having this nightie in her collection. Standing on the floor her eyes roam around the room, then drifted her gaze to the king-size bed and her gaze later meet with a cat on the bed. “Oh, dear!” Kayla gasps and rushes ba

    MELANIE’S P.O.VMy head snaps to the door the moment I hear that voice.Wait, what is he doing here? I didn't know what to say or do at the moment. I glance at Mr Gordon who also seems to be lost in his thoughts.I mean, Archie is his son, the son whom he doesn't want to have around him and also, Archie must not find him here either. Archie trusts me, even if it's a little bit, still trusts me and I can't shatter his trust in me.There comes another knock on the door and a stupid idea poop in my head. I rush to the closet and grab a hair towel.I tied it on my head and grab a bottle of water behind Mr Gordon. I splash the water on my face and I rush for the door.I can feel Mr Gordon’s eyes gored on my skin, I leave him to watch on since I have a big boy to deal with.“Hey, you okay?” I flung the door open a bit, popping my face out of the door with the towel hanging tightly on my head.“Oops, I'm sorry, I didn't know you were in the bathroom I wouldn't have disturbed.” H

    Melanie’s P.O.VI gather enough courage and stand on my feet. My hands are a little shaking from what I heard but I encourage myself by clenching my fist on both sides.I don't have any relationship with Mr Gordon so I shouldn't let any of these get to me.The relationship that his family thinks we have is nothing but an act. If he has his reasons for starting it, so I'm going to stop at nothing until I help him get what he wanted.He's not as evil as they claimed. After seeing the frightened side of him last night, I realised that he also has an inner wound that he's nursing which seems like no one knows about it.I rest my back on the counter and I sigh as I'm already confused about what I should do. I'm mentally exhausted and I don't know what to think at the moment.For the first time in five years, my brain went blank. Everything in my head seems like it has been deserted, I don't feel anything in there which makes me wonder if I'm doing the right thing by getting myself involved

    Clammy rays of light shine through the glassy window of Mr Gordon’s room. He walk gently to the window and part the curtain sideways. There, he stands in front of the mammoth window of his room, gazing at the compound from up there.A light sigh escape his red plump heart shape mouth and he moves his hands to his waist. Caressing the side of his waist with his thumb through the plain black shirt he's putting on.Then, Melanie walks into the room, closing the door behind her.She trace her steps to his back and stop right behind him, exhaling through her mouth before speaking up.“You ask me to meet you here, sir… Alfred.” She says to him as soon as she finds the right way to announce her presence.“Mel…” He turns, facing her with his mouth watering face, his eyes flicker under the damp ray. There is a dribble of sweat on his forehead.“Do you think I'm pushing things too far?” He asks. There's a worried frown on his face. Worrying that he might endanger her life, by sending her to ha

Watching out for the little boy to exit her room.Just then, there comes the sound of the opening door. She heaves a sigh of relief when she sees Archie working out of the room, grinning widely. She scoffs dumbly at him, and without making a sound she steps out of her hiding.“Oh, Lord! Thank you.” She puffs out air, does a cross sign then proceeds to walk back to her room.“I’m tired of them.”She stares into space, “Everyone of the Gordos.” She groans, dragging her feet towards her bed.She takes her to sit at the edge of her bed and picks up her phone when her eyes imprecisely land on the poor phone, beside the nightstand lamp.She decides to check her social media handle since she doesn't have anything to do at the moment.

The last time that she came, she seemed to know what suited her body perfectly.“She no longer works here.” She hears the voice of a young lady, not taking a glimpse of her.“Okay.” She says shortly, turning around to leave the section when she hears the familiar voice stopping her from walking away.“Why are you looking for her?” The voice asks, his voice is so calm and soft.Melanie turns around to have a glimpse of the person that is talking to her.“Andy Reid?” She gasps, seeing the face of the man she was chatting with ea

Her face beams with a beautiful smile.“Please come in!” She opens the door wider for them to enter.She closes the gate behind them, “Please follow me.” She says gently, leading the way to the living room, as the ladies trail quietly behind her. Only the sounds of their shoes hitting the ground could be heard.Melanie stands in the middle of the circled settee. She stretches out her hand forward, “Have your seat, please.” she invited them to sit when she sees that no one is making a move to sit down.They nod, as they sink onto the couches.Melanie kneads her palms together, feeling nervous around them “So, what are those?” She slightly raises her brows and the ladies smile sweetly at her.“These are the dresses Mr Gordon mandated us to deliver to you, ma'am.” The same lady that spoke at the door early, utter.

    A MONTH LATERMelanie’s eyes flutter open, slowly adjusting to the bright light of the hospital room. Her sights are groggy and disoriented, trying to make sense of where she is and what had happened. Her body feels heavy and weak, her limbs moving slowly and with difficulty. As her senses return, she becomes aware of the beeping machines around her, the scent of antiseptic in the air, and the bustling activity of the medical machines around her.She turns her head sideways to see Alfred, sitting on a chair beside her bed with his back to the wall. He seemed to be asleep.Melanie smiles, seeing how cute he looks even when he's asleep.“Alfred?” she calls out to him, her voice so low that she could not hear her own voice.Since she finds it hard to talk, she presses a button beside her bed which makes a loud noise.Alfred jerks up and rushed up to her, he seems shocked to see her staring at him with a smile on her face.“Melanie?

    “March?!” Kayla laughs wildly, she grabs hold of the pillar and pulls herself up. She staggered and chuckles lightly. She rests her palm on the wall to steady herself.March stands there, watching Kayla like she's in a movie. She doesn't understand why Kayla's laughing so hard, even though she just got shot in her thigh.“You…?” Kayla burst into a pearl of laughter, tears roll down the break of her eyes and she hastily wipes them off. “What is the meaning of this, detective?” she looks everywhere for her gun, but it is too dark that she couldn't see where she had dropped it.March scoff, she find it insulting to be called that title after all she's been doing.“Detective? Yes!” March grin, “Currently? Nope!” she beams as if what she's saying makes any sense to her, she tilts her head and puffs out air.“I got fired!” she whines, rubbing the bottom of the gun on her head. “After all the excellent work that I did, it only took one scheme from my colleagues to get me fired!” she scoffed

Why the hell did you let your little cousin get involved?” She stumps her foot on the floor, sending Harley a death glare.

Don't you want to stay here?” she asks, wondering why he's holding her hand when he ought to hop into the car.“I can't stay here, I want to go

None of them could believe that their closest person was the one behind everything.“Who would think my cousin could do such a thing!” Kayla laughs in amusement. Right now all she's feeling is rage.“Kayla, I trusted her with everything. I've loved and adored her all these years and I never for once had the thought that she might be behind her death. She always talked about Selena with a smile on her face.” Alfred sobs quietly, clutching tight at his phone in his hand.“Mia too?! I never thought someone that I took as my sister would plant my death because of a mere fortune, why?” he ask no one in particular. “If she should have sat me down and narrated everything to me, I would have told my uncle to forget about giving me anything, I've had enough, I don't need any of my father's properties, I should have told them to take eve

    Melanie woke up to the sound of a heavy booth thumping on the floor, she groans and opens her eyes only to meet with blurry faces in the room. She tries moving her hands but she feels her hands have been tied to her back.“Ahh,” she groans. Shaking her head to steady her vision but it seems impossible.“Guess someone is finally awake after being asleep for over an hour.” A voice chuckles beside her which makes her almost jump from her seat.Melanie twirl her face to where the voice is coming from, she could swear she has heard that voice before but she doesn't remember where.“Who… Who are you?” She grumbles and then a bucket of chill water was poured on her head from the back, the water dripping down from her head to her toes.Melanie shiver as her vision become clear and her eyes met with the clear face of the lady in front of her. “Mia Gordon!” she gasps in shock, moving back a little on her seat which makes the iron chair make an awful noise.“Yes,” Mia chuckle standing up from th

Archie moves his gaze to the couch to see Skye sleeping soundly on the couch.
