Alex Brown, a final-year highschool student who loved to hide his status from outsiders most times except for his close friends who knew everything about him. He came all the way from San Francisco, California to the small town in Mexico for hiking and vacation together with his twenty-nine other classmates.
He could be seen pacing down the staircases with his whole school squad closely behind him. Face straightened up, eyes narrowed, lips curved into a devilish grin and with two of his fingers tucked into his well-tailored suit trouser. Just looking at his facial expression screamed the guy’s respect had been trampled upon.He led the squad to the motel coffee counter and rested one of his arms on the counter before saying authoritatively to the pale-looking attendant."30 cups of brown coffee at the sixth floor. Right now" he said as he drummed two of his fingers on the well-polished white wrapped counter, fixing a deadly gaze at the innocent-looking coffee girl attendant. A series of expressions could be detected on the coffee girl's face as she blinked her eyes twice before parting her lips and began to stutter. She must have been astonished by his limited look."W...w...w... We are out of coffee, Mister,” she stuttered."How is that possible?" he asked as he continued drumming his fingers on the counter."S...s... someone! She stuttered again"Speak" he said grinning, but it was obvious that he was about to lose his temper. "Someone booked the rest of the coffee earlier, and that's why coffee can't be delivered this morning to any other occupant of the motel. We are sorry for that. We will be of better service next time, mister" she said shakenly in a polite manner but almost out of oxygen. Alex knew the reason for her being disturbed since she wasn't the first girl to get goosebumps by his charming look."I don't care if someone already booked it all, but one thing I know is that my guys and I are taking coffee this morning""We will be of better service tomorrow morning. There is no more coffee, sir. I apologize." she said with a mixed expression on her face.Maybe she would have to turn in the coffee if this handsome looking guy and his guys insisted on taking coffee that morning even though she had been warned by another pompous, rich girl that booked the coffee earlier on.Alex Brown ran his hand through his hair and turned to his best friend, Bryce William."Apology, my foot, Bryce, did you hear that?" he said and gnashed his teeth gently.Bryce gave his friend a side nudged and said "Guy, this morning is fucked. You know, maybe we should just go." Bryce cursed and patted his friend on the shoulder before they both turned to their other classmates who were by now mummuring and not satisfied with the insufficient coffee supply that morning.Alex has always wanted to be his classmates hero in situations like this, so instead, he shook his head and brought out his debit card and said to Bryce."Let's hijack it from whoever booked it earlier." he said with another devilish grin. Bryce looked at his friend and chuckled."Good idea" Bryce said.Alex slid his debit card on the counter and bit his lower lip before directing a question at the attendant."How much was the coffee booked? The attendant told him the amount that the arrogant girl had booked it for, which was double the actual amount."She..." Alex said upon learning the fact that it was even a girl, looked at Bryce, smirked before staring back at the attendant and bit his lower lip. "I will double the price. I want you to deliver the coffee ASAP." The attendant's eyes widened, and she swallowed her saliva when she realized that the amount of the coffee had been quadrupled unexpectedly."Or, should we just go?" Bryce butted in as a silly half smile creased his face, which showed that he was enjoying the moment."Oh, no wait!" The attendance was voiced out.~~~~~~~~~At the other angle of the motel, some fashionable group of girls could be seen inside a big hall room all chit-chatting and dressing up for the day. And in their midst was a rich looking, arrogant girl, Kayla Davis, the daughter of a competent billionaire from San Francisco. She also came along with her classmate for the final high school vacation.Then suddenly her best friend, Carina Lopez, who came from an average family, banged in and walked straight to Kayla who was busy styling her hair in front of the mirror, still having her white fluffy bathrobe on. Some minutes ago, Carina was wandering around the motel and sighted some bunch of boys pestering the coffee attendant. In annoyance, she had rushed back to the girls room to feed them with the latest update."Babe, you won't believe this" she called out and all the girls inside the room tilted their heads and paid attention to her."What's that?" Kayla asked with a raised eyebrow as she stiffened the straightening comb in her hands."Some bunch of yuppies are about to hijack our coffee as I am speaking" she said nervously which got most of the girls gasping and frowning at the same time.She barely finished her statement when Kayla dropped the straightening comb on the bed and slid into her bunny slippers. Without wasting a single second, she could be seen dashing out of the room with the other girls closely following behind."Kayla! Wait! You still have your bathrobe on!" Carina said the moment Kayla banged out of the room without changing into any outfit."It doesn't matter right now. We have to stop them at all cost" Kayla replied."It's barely covering your...butt." Carina called out, but Kayla was determined to quickly get to the scene before some annoying fellas hijacked their early morning coffee which she had booked for at a burgous price. She paid no attention to Carina's warning as she was heading straight to the coffee counter in a tigerlike grace.Alex and Bryce on the other hand were standing in front of the counter since the attendant had called them back and agreed to deliver them the coffee since they were going to double the price for her."Excuse me, what's going on here!?" A feminine voice floated out from a close distance which got Alex, Bryce and the other classmates to tilt their heads in the direction of the egotistic tiny voice.Alex eyes met on the unfamiliar girl in a white bathrobe that was barely covering her thighs, her blonde hair was loosed and half styled. She was followed by girls numbering up to twenty, they must have been there too for the vacation. Alex was busy observing her when Bryce suddenly nudged him and whispered."This is getting interesting, Alex. Eyes on these hot looking girls. Where have they been hiding all this time? ""All I'm seeing is 'bathrobe', nothing else." Alex shrugged at his friend and maintained a straight face but found himself swallowing something in his thr
Alex, let's play some games now"Bryce said as he slumped down on the couch in front of the TV and stretched the hand that was holding a remote to Alex."I don't want to" Alex shrugged, lied face down on the bed with his face buried in the pillow and ignored Bryce's stretched hand. Bryce, who was surprised at his friend's reaction, rose up on his feet and gestured towards him."What's the matter, Alex? I don't want to play alone."He said while still on his feet. He was trying hard to figure out what the hell had made his friend reject a video game of all things."I'm fine. I need some sleep, that's all. Call someone else, ”Alex said with his face still buried in the pillow. Bryce smirked and bit his lower lip before bouncing on Alex on the bed and threw two friendly punches on his back.Alex groaned and tossed left and right before lying face up and said:"I'm sorry."Common Bryce, you are so annoying.""Tell me why you've been moody since the morning after the cof
The airplane landed at the terminus and people filed out scantily out of the plane. Alex and Bryce were quickly spotted by the driver who drove the limited version of the limousine that his parents had sent earlier to pick them up straight home.The eager driver ushered them in immediately and the limousine zoomed speedily out of the airport.Kayla Davis and her friend on the other hand were sorting some issues with the hostess that was appointed to their apartment for lack of courtesy, in which both girls turned on her, abused her severely, after which Kayla told her that she would be sacked by all means possible, which was just another way of showing off that her parents were rich.By the time the ruckus was settled, they were the only passengers left to alight from the plane. Her parents’ chauffeur who had driven their ordinary version of a limousine sighted them, waved at them to get their attention before running up to them in order to help them with their luggage. A f
Kayla slumped down briskly on her bed and was glad the moment Carina's text popped out at the right moment she needed it."Xup babe, gist me. What's popping?""Hey, girl, it seems they are finally trading me off" Kayla texted back in a hurry."Have you found out about the family yet?" Carina texted back."No, they are trying to surprise me with it, and I'm not even interested in knowing it, ” Kayla texted back."Oh, so sad, but I would like us to carry out some sorting, will that be cool with you?" Carina texted."Maybe I will feel better if I know the family before meeting them in three days time""Exactly. It can't be the MCSmith because their last grown-up boy got engaged two months ago" Carina cleared out in her text."That's true. The Jones have been visiting us lately and acting nice to me. I won't be surprised at all if they turn out to be the surprise package that my parents have been talking about" Kayla texted."The Jones are okay. They hav
Kayla opened the door slowly and noticed that something was obstructing the door from opening. Suddenly, a hand grabbed the door by its handle and forcefully hijacked the door from her hand. She staggered back in annoyance, but was too weak to retaliate. The strange guy entered and closed the door behind him before pinning her to the wall.She could hardly figure out the face of the stranger in front of her, but she noticed that he was holding out his phone with its flashlight in her eyes, stuck his hand inside her blouse, cupped her boob and started fiddling with it aggressively.She tried to push his hand away from her sensitive part, but the guy was persistent and wouldn't stop touching her.She was semi-conscious of what was going on and had no more energy in her bones to stop the stranger from touching her.All of a sudden, the stranger pulled up her skirt and slid her thong down slowly, leaving it around her knees.He took some steps back and took a couple
"Alex, you won't believe this. I bumped into one of those girls." Bryce said, still standing.Alex, who was about taking another gulp from his red wine, almost choked on it. "What!? Which girls!?" He asked with a raised eyebrow even though he knew the girls that Bryce was talking about.Bryce sat down on the leather couch that was facing Alex."One of the girls that we met in Mexico." He explained and traced some imaginary image with his finger on the table that was between them."Which one of them?" Alex asked."The one that called me a pickle."You don't mean it. Where did you see her? Are they together? Is she with her?"Alex asked surprisingly, sprang up from his seat suddenly and gulped the remaining wine in his wineglass down at once."Chill,dude."Bryce said to calm an obviously nervous Alex down."I bumped into her on my way to the restroom, but the bathrobe wasn't with her. She was alone and...drunk."Bryce started wondering about what was going t
They decided to head home straight after searching for the girls.Bryce's actions tonight rendered Alex speechless because whether Bryce knew it or not, Alex had found out that he had fallen in love with the brown hair girl already. It was all in his eyes because Bryce hardly remembers people's features, so for him to store those in his brain was a sign that he had found a new flower after two years of staying single.Getting home, they took their night bath and got into their night pyjamas. Alex decided not to bring up the incident that happened because all he wanted that night was peaceful sleep.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Three chairs were arranged on two sides of a table at the center of the room, and Kayla, Carina and Mrs Davis were the chairs occupants.The room looked like an interrogation room because Mrs Davis was seated on a very big chair which was facing the terrified two girls, and she was making sure that her eyes were paying equal attention to the girls in f
The seconds Bryce took a sip of his wine, he felt a small hand on his thigh. He slowly looked down and his eyes fell on pink painted nails, long, slim fingers and a small wrist with a glittering bracelet.He knew whose hand that was, and he stylishly thrutch the hand away from his thigh while praying silently that Alex hadn't had a glimpse of what was going on."Bryce" Alex called out suddenly.Bryce almost choked on his food upon hearing Alex's voice."Pass me the milk," Alex said.Bryce slowly handed over the milk to Alex, and he was happy that it wasn't what he was thinking it was.Some minutes later, he felt the hand on his thigh again, but this time around, the hand was holding a small piece of paper.Ava placed the small paper on Bryce's thigh and looked away as if nothing had happened.Bryce nervously tucked the piece of paper in his trouser pocket and poured himself a full glass of French Martini which he gulped down hastily before rising up to
Alex took out his wallet and dipped his finger inside. When he pulled out wads of cash, the twins' eyes almost bulged out of their sockets, and they both screamed, "Wow!""He's very wealthy," the girl whispered to his brother. The brother gave a nod of approval. "Should we just go along with him?""But mum always tells us to wait here till she comes back to pick us up, and he might be the bad guy, the one she does tell us about." Despite the fact that a part of him wanted to accept the young man's proposals, another part of him was thinking about how upset their mother would be if she found out that they were going out with a stranger and the punishment that would follow."However, he does not seem to be a bad guy. Let us follow him, and he will bring us back here before Mum returns "She replied cajoledly, glancing at the wads of cash. "Or will you not?""I will undoubtedly bring you back before your mother returns from work. It'll be our little secret." He repli
2hours later.Mr Winslow could be seen approaching from a distance with a crystal clear, black tray on which was a cup of brown coffee. He had just gotten through a huge line of people wanting to buy a cup of steaming brown coffee and some crackers, and the only reason he was able to return earlier was because he had shunted some lines.He gently placed the tray in front of his egotistical boss, sat in the chair, and said."Boss, this area is completely packed. We need to get out of here as soon as possible because heads are already turning this way.""Isn't that why they have eyes?" the young man asked and picked up the coffee cup."However... I'm thinking about the media. If word comes out that you've been spotted in a place like this, it'll spark a debate because many people will consider this location filthy for a man of your status." Mr. Winslow clarified."Didn't we sign under a different name? I've never been here," the young man said confi
"What the hell were you thinking when you barged into my house without my permission?" Amy spoke confidently, attempting to conceal her embarrassment at having been photographed naked and at Bryce's harsh words to her."We have a search warrant for your home, and we intend to inspect it carefully. You are accused of having participated to the uploading of Miss Davis' naked images and films, and you have also been charged with using one of the maids from Brown's mansion as your hunting dog. Miss Gonzales, you are under arrest" One of the prosecutors Bryce had brought with him said, while showing his ID to Amy."What proof did you have, Twerp? I want you to get out of my house immediately!" She screamed angrily as she cautiously slipped on her clothes, attempting to avoid having her naked body captured on camera.A few minutes later, a police officer burst into the room, a flash drive in his hand."Sir, we discovered this in her control room, and the material conta
Three weeks later, Alex's hired personal investigator discovered every detail about the blackmailer's life.How his father had abandoned him and his ailing mother when he was a child.How he began scavenging for food in order to survive.How he began the act of harrassing girls, with Kayla becoming his tenth and richest victim.When he was taken into custody and condemned to prison.And how his mother's hospital cost was paid while he was still in prison by an unknown source.The detective dug deeper into the case and discovered that the blackmailer had been visited by one of the richest girls in the world just a few hours after he was apprehended.Everything was becoming plain to Alex, and all evidence in their possession now pointed to a single individual in particular, but they lacked the evidence necessary to bring that individual to justice.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Ava had marked the face of the maid she had sent to call Carina that
With a half smile on her face, Mrs Brown took a soft breath and exhaled it."Everything was business from the beginning, and I sincerely apologize if you are only now becoming aware of this situation. The Davises owe us a substantial amount of money, and we have asked for their beautiful daughter to join our family out of compassion. But instead of thanking us for our good efforts, she rewards us with something nefarious. You have to understand that I and your father have worked really hard to build this family. We cannot allow anything to happen to our family's reputation. We are not prepared to stray from accepted practices. My own daughter-in-law's nakedness is just a few clicks away on the internet." Mrs Brown answered, not bothering to glance at Kayla's face, which was now red and flowing with tears.Kayla was getting weak and couldn't speak. She was well aware that she had ruined her life, as were her parents."Tell me what you're saying isn't true, mum," Alex s
As they began to flee, the enraged haters gave them a furious pursuit.The girls were fortunate in that they were able to quickly get into the car. Fortunately, the windows were up, and Carina swiftly closed the door and started the engine.Some of the obnoxious haters who had caught up with them began forcefully slamming their palms against the car's."Come down bitch, and answer us!" they yelled. "Kayla whore! Come down bitch!"Carina was enraged and perplexed by what was going on around her, but her attention was not diverted from the task at hand, which was to drive away. She started driving away at a breakneck pace, and within a few seconds, they were observing the enraged haters from a safe distance through the car's rearview mirror.Their raucous noise filled the air, and they were also raising a large number of sign boards with boldly written words on them.[Can you tell me who you are exactly?][Leave Alex alone; you are not deserving of h
"What!? why will you do that!?" With her hands in the air, Carina cried out, "Please tell me it's not true."Keeping a straight face, Bryce explained, "Alex found out and he was mad at me.""I thought you said you loved me," Carina said, tears forming in her eyes."I'm sorry, but I want to tell you the truth; you can decide whether or not I deserved to be loved.""Ah! This is so tough for me to accept ah!" Carina sobbed, her tears falling softly.Then Bryce leaned in close and put his hand on her thigh."Do you still love me?" he asked, his voice sluggish and impersonal like those heartless lovers.Carina was deafeningly quiet for a few moments. Some part of her still feels Bryce would never do something like that, but he was claiming he did it, and be had been real and open to and that made her love for him stronger even though she was still battling with what he said he did.She shifted her attention to the outside and was no longer lost in
Some minutes earlierAva had told a maid to get her Carina as soon as possible. She had ordered the maid after successfully sending the message to Bryce, certain he would come, running to save his best friend's young sister. Unfortunately for Ava, the maid happenedto be Claire, the spy sent by Amy to spy on them. She didn't know why Ava asked for Carina, butshe was in front ofthe elevator doorwhen Brycehastilyslid open the elevator door, anddidn't notice the maid who was staring at him.Claire studied him as he stood for a few moments in front of Ava's door. Claire was taken aback by his sight. But her clumsy mind quickly connected everything. She recalledthe chemistry that existed between Bryce and Ava. She smiledas she walkedinto the elevator, which tookher straight to the ground floor. Instead of calling Carina, she went ahead and told Alex that Ava would like to see him in h
"Carina, may I join you for a drink? Ruby inquired politely, holding Carina's hand and smiling sweetly. Carina was taken aback because she wasn't expecting Ruby to be polite to her at all costs, but the lady in front of her appears to have changed. Carina accompanied her to their table and sat beside her. Ruby served the wine and offered Carina a wineglass, and cleared her throat "Do you truly love him, Carina? Carina's eyes blinked unwillingly as she asked. Bryce walked into the living area and looked around for Ava, and when he couldn't find her downstairs,he took the elevator up to the floor with Ava's room. He pausedfor a bit to gather his breath, and knocked quietly on her door, but no one answered. His blood pressure rose as he wondered if Ava had already committed suicide. He pushed the door, and the thingflew open. When he walked in, his gaze was drawn immediately to the glass window to ensure she
