Wanna find out? Yallah!! —----------- “I didn't do it- I didn't do it” the voice repeated in distress. She move in that direction. “Who's there?” Debbie asked getting all sweaty,she couldn't help but be drawn to the voice. She moved closer to see a manly figure shaking. He was facing the walls so she couldn't see his face. “I didn't do it, please stop leave me alone!” Alex cries to himself dragging his hair and cutting himself. Debbie fearfully shifts backwards but stood wondering why he was acting unstable. “Hey,just calm down okay you are fine” Debbie said softly moving closer to him having no idea why she's doing this.

Could this day get any better, I get to meet my idol twice in a row” she gushed, totally forgetting her inquiry.“Yeah right, I need a drink” Debbie said walking slowly to the bar, she could feel the different pair of eyes on her. “ I should have just push through with my first choice, just a black long gown at least no one would look at me” she mumbled under her breath.The bartender smiled at her “ I need bourbon whiskey, thanks” she ordered and he went on to get it.She turned to Alex's direction and his eyes mirrored hers, he seems to be in a conversation with few business partners but his full attention is on Debbie. His eyes didn't leave her for a second until his siblings arrive diverting his attention and greets him only Camile did, Candice looks more like he was dragged to come.She took her time to look closely at his outfit, from his neatly trimmed beards, to his jet black hair, to his well i
“ Candice I promised Alex that you would come, so please get ready so we could arrive there on time. Plus the media would be there I want nice pictures of us roaming across the internet” Camile gushed, talking nonstop. Candice grunts in frustration “ Cam! You talk too much I've heard you repeat that since you woke me up. And we don't have to rush to the venue, we ain't the contestant of the show. I don't even want to be there, I've got better things to do” he muttered rubbing his temples gently. Camile frowns “ Why have you been avoiding big bro anyway? He's the sweetest even though annoying” she rolls her eyes. Candice sighs, she has no idea about Alex's condition and how badly he was also affected. Ever since Alex's return he's been trying so hard to forget everything and come out of his shell but nothing seems to work. He doesn't want to involve Camile, she's still young and vibrant and doesn't deserve to carry such burden. “ I've nothing to say to him. I'll be out in a jiffy
“ Listen you don't know me neither do I, obviously you would be paranoid that a stranger saw you in that state. But I will not speak of it to anyone and I don't need your money” Debbie muttered taking in deep breaths.Alex just stood, her words cutting deep. She just had to remind him of his hideous past, putting him in dismay. The guts she had to speak so plainly, like she knew him or maybe she did see through his facade.He sighed having nothing else to say and walked away without a word, Debbie's eyes followed his retreating figure till he was far from her vision.Debbie sat looking back at the direction he passed and down at the money, she closed her eyes. Her anger dissipating “ Oh no why did I say that? I let my anger get the better of me.” She scolded.Feeling the weight of her outburst, she lay down reminiscing on the incident.“I said I'm sorry okay? I was just messing with you” Jace pleads running after Zara in the water. “ You both look like two kids playing tag” Kate giggl
Debbie bashed her lashes repeatedly to be certain that she wasn't seeing things “ Alex” She said inaudibly in disbelief.Alex stood staring at her from a mile away, he could clearly see the shock expression on her face. He got distracted by Jace “ I just spoke to Zara, they are here let's go” Jace informed.Debbie walked out in anger remembering how Alex kept her locked her up in his house and the number of times he never showed gratitude for helping him.Alex turned back but there was no sight of her “ Alright” he said, putting his shades back on. Both stride to find the girls.“Sis where were you? You should get changed I think jace just got here” Kate said laying on the beach wagon with her swimsuit on. “I'll get going” Debbie excused herself and headed straight to the changing room.Jace made way to their direction “ Hey girls” he said smiling through his mask. Kate turned “ Do we know you?” She asked with raised brows.Jace chuckled and removed his mask. Kate gasped “ Oh my goodn
“I thought you weren't gonna be here till tomorrow” Debbie quizzed, staring at Zara whilst taking out their dinner. “ I wanted to spend the little time I have with my bestie, and besides we're going to the beach tomorrow” she clasped her palms in anticipation to the pancakes.“Liar, you came because I didn't tell you who the person was” Debbie rolled her eyes, sitting next to Kate who seemed entirely focus on her phone.Zara inhales the fresh scent of buttermilk, maple syrup been placed nicely on the dinning table “ I haven't seen you for an entire week and that's how you welcome me” she munches on the pancake filled with honey.“ Really, but you're seated and chewing loudly on a meal I prepared. I really have no words for you” Debbie resigns in annoyance.“I missed you too, I hope you're packed up for tomorrow” Zara smiled looking amidst the sisters. “ Someone would be joining us” she mumbled hoping there won't be any questions.“Someone? Who?” Debbie asked, perplexed. “ Jace” Zara s
Camile how are you feeling?” Candice asked, whilst eating at the dinning table. “ I'm fine” Camile responded, her face downward with black shades on.“Why do sound like that? And what's up with the glasses, we're inside cam” Candice asked, he sat opposite her direction. “ My eyes burn and I have got a sore throat, I just wanna go back to bed” she said, her palms rubbing her throat slowly.“ Mom asked what happened, I convinced her that you fell asleep in my car thank God you were in Dreamland. Because the entire house would still be on fire right now” Candice said.Camile scoffs “ You should be happy that I wasn't awake, mom would have found out that her amazing goody goody son is a fûcker.” She said, her weary face contort into a sly smile.“You should be thankful that I saved your sorry ass last night and not scheming against me. You would have been grounded” Candice sighed, cleaning the crumbs by the corner of his lips with a table napkin.“What about Kate? The last thing I remembe
“Kate! Open up Kate!!” Debbie shouted, banging on Kate's door. Kate grumbles due to the noise she got up and fell back to the bed “ My head” she groans.She stood up again and opened her door, “ Aren't you going to school?” Debbie asked, a bit upset. “ Your eyes are so red, you drank too much Kate.” Debbie complained.She took Kate to the kitchen and prepared a concoction for her migraine “ I can't go to school looking like this, I shouldn't have drank so much yesterday” Kate whined, drinking the concoction.“You shouldn't, next time I won't be so caring. Who dropped you off last night?” Debbie inquired, as she sat on the kitchen cabinet. “ That was Camile's brother” she replied.“Okay, so you and Camile were busy matchmaking me with her brother. Who is he?” Debbie asked, Kate Snickers “ It's the hottest, youngest billionaire in the country! CEO of AJ STYLES!!” Kate announced, and whistled.“Camile's brother is Alex?, that was unexpected so the other guy that dropped you ?” Debbie ask
“I said now!” The man in black said,he moved forward pointing the gun at Kate's head. Kate screamed and woke up she looked sideways and exhale.“ Why did you scream like that?” Candice asked, still driving he glanced at her and back to the road. “ Oh thank heavens it was just a dream” Kate muttered, she was sweating profusely.Candice looked at her weirdly as she kissed the car's carpet. “ Are you drunk or something?” Candice asked. “ I had a dream that we were ambushed” Kate replied, in all manner of seriousness.Candice burst into laughter, Kate looked at him in shock she has never seen him so alive and happy. “ I don't think I have heard anything more comical in a really long time, seriously no one is bold enough to take that step” Candice said, shaking his head with a small smile on his face.Kate stared at him, “ That is the longest statement you have ever said to me” she spoke, with a smile having a tingy feeling about the fact that she made him laugh.Candice clears his throat
Kate and Camile got to the venue where the party is been held “I don't think we can squeeze through the crowd” Kate shouted, because of the loud music. “This is my first live party and am not missing it for anything, so you better get ready to push anyone that gets in the way baby girl” Camile uttered, her eyes filled with determination.“What's that smell? The party just started and the entire hall stinks, geez my eyes and nose can't take in anymore stench” Kate uttered, with her hand on her nose and the other blowing air to her eyes.“Quit whining and let's go in” Camile said, dragging Kate into the crowd. They forced their way to the front roll and met Zack with a girl rocking him hard.“Zack this isn't for old meat bro, it's a freshmen party what are you doing here?” Camile asked, looking at him like he had grown horns. Zack chuckles.“Well I came to get fresh pussies, Candice and Cole came too I dragged them here tho” Zack smirked, staring at kate.“My brother is here?” Camile q
DEBBIE'S APARTMENT Whimpering sound of a lady in a small room could be heard with the lights off, sobbing increasing at each minute. Still in her sleep “Ahhh!” Debbie screams jolting out of her dream,beads of sweat on her forehead.She sat up immediately on her bed using both hands to cover her face”i can't live like this“ she said amidst her tears. Her junior sister barges into the room upon hearing her scream “sis what's wrong are you okay?”kate asked worriedly.“It's 3am for fûck sake how can I be okay,when I keep getting this nightmares”she croaked. “It's going to be fine sis” kate cooed and sat on the bed giving her a hug and rubbing her back. After a while they both fell asleep in each others arms till the break of dawn.“Kate!! Come down for breakfast” Debbie calls out to her sister. “just a minute sis” she answered, Kate walks to the dinner and drops her books on the table, debbie groans “c'mon I called you here to eat not to read books,you can do this later” she whined.
