Naomi watched Mrs. King as she sipped her cocoa as many thoughts ran through her mind. She is a skimming bitch who hides in the disguise of a good girl."So tell me, apart from you. Does my daughter have other friends?"Naomi smiled when the opportunity she was looking for arrived.She cleaned her throat then relaxed on the couch,"Yeah, she has but I am ashamed to admit that those friends are nothing to write home about," Mrs. King did not like the sound of that and wondered if her daughter is keeping a bad gang, the ones that will put her in danger."Oh my poor daughter, what have I done to her?" Mrs. King cried out in her mind.Naomi could tell from the expression playing on the woman's face that what she said hit a point. She smiled to herself and then made a sad face."She is my friend but I can't tell Kristen what to do. I so much love her that I can't bear to see what she does with boys'' She said, faking sadness. Mrs. King looked up, "Did you say, boys"Naomi nodded her head
Within the last fifteen minutes, Kristen had cried her heart out. Each time, her past comes hunting, she cries. It relieves her of tension.With her back leaning against the wall, she brushes her mouth sluggishly.Her eyes were red from crying and her mouth quivered. Her cheeks were drained of colors.She wipes her face to stop her tears, only to feel more come. She buries her face into the crook of her elbow and tries to control herself. She sniffles once, twice, and then takes a deep breath.This is not the time for her to be strong. Not when every member of her family is popping up at her doorstep reminding her of what she is trying to forget."Mummy, when will you ever listen to me? all you do is get to work, come back and take care of your husband without asking me how I am fairing."Her faint voice rang in her head."You know, today was PTA and every child's parents in my school came except mine. What did I ever do to you?"The Voice in her head continues lamenting in pain.It's
Kristen did not have to drive for long before she got to a nearby restaurant.There was a little bit of traffic, but she didn’t mind it as much once she entered the parking lot. A sign hung in front of her saying ‘Wine, Beer and Burgers’ and that was all she needed to know to find the perfect spot. It wasn’t a particularly fancy restaurant, but when compared with the other places Kristen had been going, this place was pretty nice.She got out of the car, locking it behind her. When she made her way towards the restaurant, she saw the doorman waiting by the door. She smiled at him and headed over.The doorman held the door open for her. “Thank you,” Kristen said, walking through and taking in the surroundings. A hostess led her directly to a booth at the back of the restaurant, away from the windows. As she slid into the seat, some guy sitting across from her looked up and smiled at her.Kristen contemplated if to smile back or not and decided to do the former.He seemed very attractiv
FREDERICK groaned as he opened his eyes. He had overslept. If not for the ringing of his phone, he might not have woken up.He looked at the clock on his bedside table and swore when he noticed that it read eight in the morning. His phone rang again and he grabbed it from where it was lying carelessly.He sighed when he saw who was calling him and answered the call.“Frederick?”“Larry, you don't have to wake me up with a call. you know that right?" said Frederick with an irritating voice"I don't, but I think you will enjoy what I have to tell you," Larry said apologetically'Okay," replied Frederick slowly. ‘what could he possibly want at this time of day?' Frederick thought.He took a deep breath and let out. “Alright, what is it?""The stranger from yesterday, remember?""Yeah, what about him?" Frederick asked with curiosity lacing through his voice."I know where he is staying. I was able to trace where he live"Larry paused."How do you find him?" Frederick asked after a moment
KRISTEN dropped the phone and rolled her eyes. She just got off the phone with Frederick."Thinking of the devil, he called" She mumbled, poking her egg with the fork.After the stranger, Lucian left, she had not put much thought into him and retorted to eating her breakfast. She was doing that until Frederick called and made an offer to see her.She stared at her shades close to her purse. She was definitely staring at it but her mind was far from it."Why was he sounding so afraid over the phone?"She sighed, creasing her brows. This is not making sense to her. She is afraid to start something with him and he is afraid to even call her. Who would make the move between the two of them?She heard a giggle and looked up to see her sister coming into the restaurant with a guy. She was heavily dressed in dark shades and a black leather jacket and this tight skirt that would allow her to walk.It looked like she was trying so hard to walk with the clothes.The guy looked like one of the
"But just remember one thing, if I really want to crush you, I know what to do and I am sure you know what"Cherry's last words could not stop replaying in her mind as Kristen drives home. She knows what her sister is talking about and she knows Cherry is so evil that she would go to any extent to pull someone down."Who cares, what's the worst that can happen to me now? Nothing"She said out loud, taking a deep breath."When you decide to run away from a problem, another problem meets you. What a life?"Kristen thought and continued driving.The day does look good for her. First, her mother appeared and now, her sister ran into her. It's a clear sign to Kristen that the day might turn out sour for her."Let's see how it goes, my life has not been the best of it all and I can't remember a day that has favored me."She tuned the music to at least take her mind off so many thoughts. She doesn't want to get lost in the song and crash into something.After a few minutes of driving, she
Kristen looked at Frederick's face and noticed he was nervous, his Adam's apple bobbed when he swallows."Do I make your breath hitch"?Kristen chuckled when Frederick shook his head slowly. His hand reached up to gently cup her cheek."You know me so well".He said while kissing her forehead."I did not realize I do. I wonder how come? We just met. How can I know you so we?"Kristen asked, staring into his eyes. She saw something she could not recognize but it seemed familiar somehow."You know me".She heard him say in a low tone. Kristen didn't say anything and just watched as her eyes roamed his face. The soft skin under his eyes and the stubble growing. His dark wavy hair makes the color darker, " you're my whole world".Her thoughts were interrupted when she felt Fredrick's hand rubbing against the nape of her neck."You want more than sex right? " Kristen's question left her mouth before her brain could process it. Frederick looked deep into her eyes.His expression was unreada
Noami got cussed with her phone as she waited for Cherry to arrive. It has been fifteen minutes since she arrived yet no sign of her.She had contacted Cherry after Kristen and Frederick left. She felt she was delaying too much so she had asked Cherry to meet her at Black Coast Bar at the heart of the town. Cherry did not want to go but when she heard that it had to do with Kristen, she had no choice but to go to honor the stranger's call.Cherry walked into the bar, another fifteen minutes later, and looked around. She had not removed the dress she was wearing earlier this morning when she ran into Kristen.There were pretty a lot of single ladies on their own and she can't seem to know which one is the stranger that called her so she decided she should try the phone.A phone rang from the east coast of the bar and she knew right away that it is the lady sitting with her eyes glued to her phone, whom she had come to meet.Her dressing was amusing to her and Cherry wondered why a la
