That man, John, did as he was instructed by the director. He was a nice man who talked to Denise like a normal person. He didn't have any attitudes and was actually very nice. They were having small talk as they walked towards a phone shop just a block away from Global Scope Studios.

"You know D-Nice" John started and Denise looked at him, "I've been in this industry for a while now. I have photographed and videographed a lot of models, actors and actresses, and I have to say, you are very talented and nice. I am sure for your character, there will be very very few MTs," he praised her and she felt nice. But...

"What are MTs?" She asked as some of these movie terms were still new to her.

"Oh, sorry. Because of your good acting I forgot that you are new to all this. MTs are multiple takes. You see, when filming a scene, each scene filming is called a 'take'. Many actors and actresses do like two or three takes before a director is satisfied. Others do even fifty or more takes. Like the

    Denise had never been in such a car. She was thus enjoying the view and the ride and she really wasn't paying attention to where they were going. She had never been to the city before because as she was growing up, she was hardly ever taken anywhere. She wasn't even allowed to go to her grandfather's burial either. All she knew was the way to school and back home. All she knew about the town or cars and such was what she read in magazines and saw on TV and nothing else. Thus, this was a first and very enjoyable to her. She thus enjoyed looking at all these buildings and all these businesses. She didn't know that the city was this big. She was mesmerized and lost in her own imaginary world.She promised herself that one day, she would also own a building like this and start a big business like these people. She would become her own boss. One day, people would relate the name D-Nice with her. She swore to make it a house hold name.She was brought back by Fey shaking and calling her."H

    Denise looked at that man wide eyed. As she watched, Fey run and hugged him."Uncle, you are bad. Why did you tell your secretary not to let us in?" She complained while pouting and the man patted her back with a caring expresion about his face."It's not that baby. Why would I tell her not to let in my favourite niece? It's just that I'm so busy and wanted to catch up with some work," he said as he looked at Denise.Denise felt her legs give and she saw the office spin. She then started free falling and before she could hit the ground, the man was there to cushion her fall with his large arms. Since he was tall, he had reached her before Alex, who had gone to the dispenser to get water, could reach her."Is she sick?" He asked looking at his sister."No, as far as I know, she has been well since we met and hasn't shown any signs of being in any kind of discomfort. I haven't seen anything odd," Alex answered as she touched D's forehead."No fever, she seems okay," she said and the man

    Denise woke up and stretched herself. She felt so well rested. She hadn't been this well rested in a long, loooong, time. In fact, she couldn't even remember ever feeling this well rested in her whole life. She then remembered that she had seen Ansel Winston. She laughed because clearly, it had been a dream. She chuckled again and... But wait.. This bed seems to be so soft compared to the hard ground where she sleeps."What happened yesterday? I came from the auditions, met Fey and.. Oooooooh, fuck me!"Denise opened her eyes and sat up with a start. She looked at herself and her clothes had been changed. She was wearing a white sleeping gown that was oh, so warm and soft. And the bed? The bed was huge. She looked like one small fish in a white ocean. These bed sheets and covers screamed 'expensive and soft'. The room was big. Bigger than even her parents', sorry uncle's, room back in the Ashford mansion. It didn't look odd even though it had minimal decorations. Just a flower vase at

    She opened the door slowly, a small gap enough to peep. She peeped to see if anyone was on the other side. When she didn't see anyone, she smiled and opened it very very slowly and when she had opened it a big enough gap where she could fit, she placed her foot outside the door and then..."Why are you walking shoeless? Wear your shoes, the floor is usually very cold and we don't want you getting sick now, do we?" Ansel talked from inside the room and that gave Denise a big scare that she was startled and she turned abruptly and in doing that, she twisted her legs together and she fell.She would have fallen on her butt but a big strong arm was there to give her support and prevent her from embarrassing herself, yet again. "Why are you always falling? Is it a hobby, maybe?" Ansel asked but instead of irritation, his voice carried a hint of teasing.Denise wished that the ground could just open and swallow her to save her from the shame. "Big boss, I don't usually fall. It's you who's

    Denise shot out of that building like it was on fire. She literally ran. She didn't care of what people would say or even if people looked at her. All she wanted was to get as far away as possible from Ansel Winston.She sighed in relief when she was no longer in the downtown part of the CBD and she walked quicklytowards the bust stop so that she could take a bus to Sava slums.After she got into her house, she was relieved as she knew, or should we say thought? As she thought that Ansel could never get to her. She promised herself that the next time she sees him, she would be a famous actress who had made a name for herself. Denise had a lot of hope for her future and a lot of that was so that she could prove to herself that she could do it and also prove to the Ashfords that she wasn't that feeble creature they always thought she was.She sat on her sleeping mat and started going through the events of yesterday with a smile.****At Imperial Corporation"Did you see where she went

    Using the little money D had made the previous week, she woke up early the next day and went to the flea market. She needed to buy two things: 1 A few more presentable dresses and 2. Second hand books on and about acting.She got a few tops and dresses for around five hundred dahlias and one book from the second hand book stalls entitled: A to Z of Creating a Character. She decided that since she didn't have money for now to help her get into any kind of a performing arts school, then all she could do was teach herself. Good thing was that she was a fast learner and was sure that she could do it.She spent the next two days in her house teaching herself and practicing what she was reading. She learnt all the emotions and how to show them, how to cry at the snap of a finger, how to laugh as a sophisticated lady, how to be a seductress, a good housewife, a serious boss lady, a thief, a nun, an abandoned and homeless woman a bitch and all that. She acted out any character she saw descri

    At the stipulated date and time, Denise was at the Diamond Studios eager to start her work. What she liked most was that they had been told that there would be an allowance for the two weeks of the workshop. Imagine that! An allowance for being taught how to become a good actress! It was like hitting the jackpot.Denise loved money. She knew that money made the world turn. She knew that if she wanted to be powerful enough and get people's respect (and top on this list were the Ashtons), she had to have money. She therefore was thrilled because this would be the first ever money she would earn doing what she loved: acting.After the time they had been given to be there was up, they were asked to board a bus. It had the familiar studio's logo and name. Others were already there and they were making conversation but Denise being Denise, didn't know how to make friends or small talk and she closed her eyes and started going through all she had learnt in the past several days.

    The next few days were 'adventurous' to say the least for Denise. She loved the way the company took care of them from food to sleeping arrangements, not talking about the way they were taught. Each day was filled with activities like morning exercises: they were to become actors and actresses and so had to keep fit, breakfast, then they would be taught how to behave during a shooting like approaching cameras from all angles, how to appear natural when acting, how to relate to each other and the crew and such. Then there would be that session where they would meet with fellow actors and actresses and create rapport so as to make it easier on them when the real acting starts, they also met the rest of the crew and a ton of other activities. No day was boring.The movie, 'Mechanics' had about thirty or so characters but the main were six. These consisted of the leader - a male and he was the brains of the team, Laura - the part Denise was to act - the thief, another lady - a grifter, a

    Denise looked at Mandy and wondered why and where all the hatred came from. She didn't know the other woman and she really didn't think that even if it was a grudge because of taking Ansel or humiliating her the other day, it warranted her asking her people to kill her."Why do you hate me so much first of all? Do we know each other from somewhere?" Denise asked Mandy because she thought all this crazy.How can one hate someone else out of their own delusions? It wasn't normal. But she needed to hear it from Mandy herself because maybe she had a reason."Do I have any reason to hate you? You took my man away from me. Isn't that reason enough? I hate your very guts!" Mandy said through gritted teeth but Denise just looked at her with pity in her eyes. Really? Did Mandy just call Ansel her man?"Has Ansel ever told you that he loves you or has he ever given you any reason to believe that he does? Has he ever behaved in a way to suggest that he mightwant you?" Denise asked her again,

    Denise had known that marrying Ansel would come with its own troubles but she didn't expect it to come so soon. She should have expected that there were people who were in love with Ansel in his own home but she never suspected that any of them would go as far as trying to take her life.But it was okay, they were giving her the experience she needed to live in this world that she had found herself in. She loved Ansel and she was ready to fight for him… literally.She sat on the couch again but her heart was still aching. Every time she would look at the bag that had been holding the food she had bought for Ansel and then think of how these fools had eaten it, she would feel so bad that she would feel better after beating them again.This time, even the guy who had been shot was no exception. They were beaten so badly that they could not speak well because their lips were the sizes of sausages.On the other side of the town, Ansel was going mad as his people tried tracking that taxi

    These men regretted underestimating Denise and taking her nonchalance as fear and helplessness. If they had known that she could handle a gun and she knew how to fight, they would have recruited more men or even dealt with her more ruthlessly and without delay. They sat on the floor in a line like obedient school children and faced her. She then sat back on the couch and bent her back a little, parted her legs and placed her elbows on her knees and looked at them the way one would look at children. She was like a mother teaching her children how to be good boys. She was dangling the gun before them and they seemed visibly scared until one decided to be brave. "Do you even know how to use that thing? Stop pretending! Our young miss told us that you are a nobody. So, stop pretending to be brave. Why don't we fight and see what you can do?" He said and she smiled at that. An eerily scary smile that had him regretting why he said that. "Okay," she said just that and pulled the tri

    "So, you guys want to tell me who sent you?" She asked them, looking all nonchalant and they laughed.She looked at them like fools and made herself comfortable at that dusty couch. She even placed one leg on top of the other on the knee and looked all bossy. She didn't look like she was the kidnapee at all."Yeah, we will tell you once we deal with you. Our boss told us to do with you whatever we would and she would come to finish you. Don't worry, we threw your phone away and no one would be able to locate you. So, it's just you and us. You can stop pretending to be all brave. But don't worry, we love breaking the hard ones," one said and he touched his lower lip with his thumb seductively, maybe thinking about how he was going to deal with her."Our boss should have told us you are this beautiful. I swear I would have asked for less than what we demanded. I would have even done it for free. Wah! It has been long since l was with such a beauty," another said and they laughed at that

She said excitedly and the others were all ears. “You could just ask one of the people who work here," she said feeling all clever. "Have you forgotten that anyone who works for Imperial never talks?

    The best feeling in the world is to love and to be loved. When one has someone who loves them, that's the best feeling ever. For Denise, it was magical because she had literally never experienced any form of love from those she mostly wanted to be loved and appreciated by. The people she always thought were family. She always wanted to feel the love of a mother, a father, a sister or a brother but she never did. She always thought that she had a defect until she realised that the problem with them and not her. They always hated her and at one time, they made her think that she never deserved love. But that was the past and she was now here with a man who would do anything for her. From what she had seen so far, Ansel would move a mountain for her and it felt good. As she waited there, she found herself smiling at the memories they had made so far even though they hadn't been together for long.
