Eleanor

I woke up from a very bad nightmare. I rolled on my bed from left to right. Perhaps because of the nightmare I had, I was being delusional. The bed seemed harder and larger than mine but I was probably just wondering.

The sun started peeking over the houses through the window and highlighted the beauty of the room. This wasn't my bed, nor was it my room. Several servants were working outside, their boots hitting the strong wood of the house.

The door was opened and I saw Mr Harrison with a bunch of servants. They all gathered around him. After a minute, they started heading towards me as a group.

I yawned openly. Amongst the group of servants were Helena and Susan. They looked worried and rushed to me first. " My lady, are you okay? Are you wounded?" Helena asked.

" I'm fine. Perfectly fine. What's the occasion? Why am I here? Did something happen to me again?" I inquired.

" No," Susan burst, " you looked pale yesterday but you seem fine. What would you like for breakfast? Th

    EleanorGradually, I walked close to Mr. Harrison. Candy and Jay dispatched, both their cheeks burning red from embarrassment. " This is my old friend Candy. Candy, meet my husband." I introduced. I wasn't sure how Mr Harrison was going to react but I was trying my best to make him act calm and nice.Candy cleared her throat and straightened her suit. She walked to Mr. Harrison and extended her hand. " Good evening Mr. Tolstoy. It's nice to meet you." To my surprise, Mr. Harrison shook her hand. He came further in and sat on the couch. I sat beside him, waiting for Candy and Jay who were both standing together." Erm…I was just leaving, Mr Harrison. I'll see you next time." Candy said in haste. " Why the rush? I just got here. Do you mind staying the night? I have a lot of room and I assure you, you would enjoy it. Come, have a seat." Mr. Harrison said.Candy exchanged glances with Jay then she looked at me. I nodded slightly and she came to sit across us. " Jay …where do you think yo

    SerenaRidiculous as it may sound, I have found myself in this big picture that is now on fire. I can only depend on someone who's merciful enough to save me from my foolish decisions. And that someone had to be Harry.I crossed my legs as I brooded on a soft fluffy office chair. I am an actress, I am proud of what I have become and how I have come to reach this position. I stared at the ceiling, I should get a real life and start something up.I didn't earn my first capital all by myself. It was an absurd topic that I didn't want to think of or talk about. And Harry must not learn of it. I am living the best life, not the best legacy.I took the cup of tea that Janet had put on the table for me. She is my assistant and my make-up artist. Someone I trust with anything when it comes to my schedule and Facetime.The tea was already cold, it had lost its taste. I looked over at the young Mister that was lying naked on the bed. I didn't bother to get his name, he was going to leave soon a

    Harrison." So what of your Father?" I tossed the book I had been reading aside and looked up at Eleanor, who was sketching something on her sketchpad in the parlor. Candy and Jay were still with us in the sitting room, trying to figure out what was happening with Eleanor's Father. I left them a few minutes ago to take a call from Serena. A call I had been anticipating. " We've been gisting for nearly five hours now since breakfast, and I haven't heard a word about him. You aren't here too. "" Hush." Eleanor flicked a glance at the corners of the house. " I needed everywhere to be quiet. There's a spy in this house. Not a servant, a guard. And something tells me he's here now o gather Information about me."" Don't be silly," I responded, sitting up and interlocking my fingers. " I know every one of my guards, and I have interrogated them thoroughly. All of them. And if there is a spy, he would know better than ge

    Eleanor." Honestly, Eleanor. Four gowns are not nearly enough for my weekly shopping. How do I do that? Nah." Candy protested, her lap full of fine clothes from my wardrobe. " I wear at least four ghetto dresses in two days. C'mon. Because I'm dressed in a suit? I am like this because I came here and besides, it looks good on me." I shook my head, chuckling softly. " You should change your lifestyle. Honestly. You look so good in these dresses and looking decent would make Jay proud. Don't you think?"" Are you denying me my pleasure?" Candy held up a gown. " Uf, this looks nice." She folded it into the bag I had, which was almost full. My wardrobe looked awful. " You can have this too. It's made of fine silk. I got it from the Dwagor market. They sell the best there."Candy sat next to me with the bag on her lap. " I'll come back, Eleanor. I'll make sure I do." She hugged me, zipped the bag up, and walked out. I followed her out of the house. Jay was nowhere to be found but she see

    Eleanor " You look so beautiful, sister. I could almost not recognize you." Jess's voice was full of deceit. She would never say that unless she wanted something. And now that I have accidentally met with her in the clubhouse, I have no idea what she might be planning. I rested on the counter while Emil glanced at Jess, who was standing in front of us. He didn't say a word. He probably had thousands of reasons to punch her in the face. " Jess, what do you want? Spit it out and be on your way back home. I'm sure your mother must be looking for you." I replied. I rested one shoulder on the counter and crossed my legs. " you have proven to be an unworthy sister, so guess what? I found someone else to take your place. Jess's brows came together. " you found another sister?"I nodded. " should we talk in a more quiet place?" I asked, glancing at Emil. He nodded in affirmation. " Give me a second," I said to Jess and left her presence. I needed to speak with Nikki to tell her I'll be in a

    SerenaThe trip to London was engaging. Especially having Janet around to keep company. Harry was up for a surprise, he had no idea I was on my way. Driving into the city, I could barely know my way around. London had changed a lot and I have no idea why. I was only gone for a few…four years. The weather was sunny and I hated it. California was way better than this. " Are we there yet? Janet asked. I looked out the window, observing the surroundings. This was supposed to be the way but I wasn't sure. " I think it is. Perhaps I have grown worn out of the countryside, I can't remember. I sat back and thought for a while. " that the next turn to the right. The villa should be there."The driver did as I had told him and I was right. My stomach tickled, I still know the way after all. The driver stopped at the first entrance. "Who are you? What business do you have here?" a big man, dressed in a corporate suit stood at the gate, denying us the right to proceed. " Can you wind the gla

    EleanorIt took me hours of thought and remuneration to figure it out. I have been used all my life. Thinking I had left the life of being used and abused, I'm currently in a worse situation right now. Nikki had gone to her room to talk with her fans online. Having Serena around was a threat." Eleanor, are you inside?" Mr. Harrison's voice pierced through the door. I kept mute. I didn't want to have anything to do with him anymore. I have done it all. He has kissed me, and had sex with me, what more is there to keep?If I had stayed at home and endured the abuse, I'd still have my pride. When I get dumped, the world would mock who I have become. People would talk and I'll end up in a worse position than I used to. I hugged my knees and rested my head on them. A good life is just never meant for me. "Are you asleep?" I could hear the nervousness in his voice, his heartbeat almost matched mine. " Eleanor?" "I'm not," I said softly. "How can I help?" His shadow shifted from the space

    Eleanor" Please sit. You know we cannot make noises here." Lina swiped her hands through the back of her skirt as she adjusted and sat down. I had no idea why she had to bring me to the chapel of all places, perhaps this was her way of investigating." So, over there, Miss Lina. You said my family is involved in the disappearances of some women or children. Tell me, on what evidence is this charge emerging from?" I rested my hands on the pew." This has been a very long case, Mrs Tolstoy. Given that you have only but entered into the family a few weeks ago, I'll conclude that you know little of what is going on in there. Here." She handed me a newspaper-like paper and continued. "This was a newspaper that was released about ten years ago Mrs Tolstoy but of course, you weren't aware. Take a look. The Tolstoys were charged with murder and kidnapping. Children and ladies, young ladies disappeared at that time and all

    The sound of "Here comes the bride" echoed through the church of St Paul. A lot of people were seated in the church, waiting for the bride to come around. Eleanor was in the changing room, fighting her corset with Lina."Damn, this is tight. I could have chosen a much better dress. All in the name of fashion. What if I fail to breathe and I faint in front of my husband? Ish.""If you fail to breathe, I will pour you water. Just in case.""Emill," Lina warned."What? Have you forgotten what she did to me on our wedding day? She hid my tie and made me use a bow tie.""And it was perfect but you don't trust your best friend. That is what is wrong with you. Anyway, if you pour me water, you would owe me 5 million dollars. I would collect it from you. I know you know that.""Eleanor, you still want to bully me on your wedding day? Jeez. People change, why didn't you?" Someone knocked on the door and Emil went to pick it up. "You're not supposed to see your bride before the wedding. They s

    Writer's POVHarrison went back to his hotel and tried to think about what he could do for Eleanor. It was a hard task. He knew Eleanor wouldn't just agree to see him just like that. There was nothing he could think of buying that would be catchy to her.He went to bed, hoping the next day would be very good.*** Eleanor walked back and forth to the room. "Again, who invited Harrison? This isn't a joke. Why would one of you invite Harrison without my permission? Why?"Her mother sat on a chair, knitting stockings. "As much as I hate the boy, he still looks handsome. Did you ask him the type of cream he was using?""Mother, this is not funny. Do you know how I felt when I saw him? I was going to lose my mind. Why would you do such things behind my back?"No one was answering her. She sat in the chair, frustratingly shaking her leg. "Well, I think he's a changed person. I heard he built a house for orphans on the streets. It is also said that he is a good man and he let out all his slav

    Writer's POVHe held the child's hands and looked around as she led him to a hallway. "Magny? Where are you? Come out now. We have a visitor, he says he bears annoying Harry's name."Harrison laughed. The child was something. He found the plastic horse on the ground. He bent down and showed her the toy. Tada" "Yay! You found Magny." She hugged him. That was when Harrison perceived it. "Thank you, Uncle Harrison. I'll see you later, okay?" She said and ran off. He stood still. He could never mistake it. She smelled exactly like Eleanor. Exactly like Eleanor, he was sure of it. Come to think of it, her hair was also gray and her eyes belonged to Eleanor. If he wasn't hallucinating, then he was running mad. He closed his eyes and turned around. "I need to get them now. Mia, nice, go find Harry. Look for him, I didn't say you should hide and seek…" he heard the voice and the clacking sounds of shoes coming his way. He quickly hid in a corner.The fact that he was there wasn't the probl

    Writer's POV*Five years later*"Brother, look at this model. She also sent you a message and you still haven't replied. Why? Do you want to live like this forever? This isn't some Disney movie. I am married and you are not. People are talking," Nikki protested to her brother who was packing his bags. He wasn't paying attention to Nikki and he wasn't interested in doing so. "Brothers I am talking to you, do not ignore me.""Nikki. People are different. Some people love marriages…some don't. I don't. I need to get to the office. I am trying to lead by example."Nikki pursed her lips. "Is this because of Eleanor? Are you still punishing yourself for that? You know you deserve it but this is enough. It's been five years and you are not getting any younger. You need to find someone to get married to and have kids. Who would take care of your company when you are gone?"Harrison was dressed and tired of Nikki. He would do anything to drive her out of his house but he didn't want to push h

    Writer's POVHarrison walked around the house, screaming and throwing things apart. How would he explain it to her? She wouldn't even want to hear him out. He was done. He had to accept the fact that he would never have her again. There was no magic for him to perform.*Two hours earlier*Harrison was mild and sad, wondering and planning how he was going to meet Eleanor and get the shit out of her. Someone knocked on his door. The guards opened. For a moment he thought it was going to be Eleanor but instead, it was her friend, Candy.He knew Candy was Eleanor's friend so he thought it would be easy if he sent Candy to Eleanor so that Eleanor would at least mind meeting him."Good morning Mr. Tolstoy. How are you?" Of course, he wasn't fine. All he wanted at the moment was to see Eleanor. "I am fine," he lied. "Eleanor isn't here at the moment and Jay already took his leave. I thought he told you all that?""Oh, dear. I wasn't sure about what he was telling me on the phone and why Elea

    Writer's POVEleanor Carol dressed up in black. Luxury Black. She did her makeup and made sure everything was pitch black. She took her bag and headed out of the house. Her destination was a place she didn't want to visit but Emil just reminded her how brutally she was of that place. She entered Tolstoy's apartment. The guards didn't stop her. Every clicking sound of her shoes emitted danger. She wasn't smiling. She went in and went straight to the stables. She didn't care if Harrison was home or not. The moment she saw Magny, the horse neighed happily. I hadn't seen her for a long time. She smiled. At least something was still capable of making her smile. She related the horse. She was taking him home. She found the men that used to be there. They already knew her face so they let her be. Perhaps they had no idea Hendrix was in prison. She caressed the horse and calmed it down. It must have been so lonely staying there alone. There was no Hendrix to take care of him so she was goi

She is a scary person. Too scary," Emil grumbled and reported.He was done with his part of the chore and he wanted to sleep like Eleanor. He was just trying to be closer to Eleanor's mother. He understood why Eleanor had to take a break."You are trouble, Emil. If I were Eleanor, I would throw you something hard in the face. you would wonder why I did that to you. Do you want to sleep too or do you just want to disturb me?"Mother was done with her cleaning too, it looked like the whole house was back to being brand new. He followed Mother back to the sitting room. He just wanted to have some time with her. Emil didn't lie about the way she had been approaching and referring to him.
