"The boys are setting him ablaze like you instructed.""Jesus Christ. I never said that. Go stop them immediately!" Victor yelled in panic."But Lucas said…"" He lied. I never said that," Victor cut him off.Hastily, they all ran off to save Vincent. With every step Victor took, he felt like life was being drained out of him, worried, panicky and exhausted. But then, he had to keep moving forward for his mum and younger brother. Getting to the backyard. Cries of protest erupted from Victor on seeing Vincent, tied up, soaked in kerosene and about to be shot from a distance."Release that bullet and lose your head!" Victor yelled.His words stilled the entire place. Everywhere became silent like a graveyard. He strutted over to Vincent and quickly freed him from the shackles that bound him to the seat." Are you okay?" Victor asked worriedly.Vincent scoffed."Why do you care? You instructed them to set me ablaze, now you show up like a hero to save me. Did you really think I will be m
Hailey got up to her feet and approached Megan who was now torn between listening to them and pulling the trigger. "Let's forget the past, Meg, please."Victor watched her approach, Megan. He kept kneeling, staring at Megan with pleading eyes. Vincent stood at a corner watching them with an uninterested look on his face. They were all so focused on Megan and Hailey that they failed to notice Lucas, stir. Lucas's eyes fluttered open and he slowly rose to his feet. The first thing that caught his attention was Hailey taking slow steps towards Megan. His face turned grim, knowing that Hailey was capable of influencing Megan's decision. He immediately looked around for something that could stop Hailey from getting to Megan. His eyes landed on the gun that was carelessly hanging on Vincent's waist. Swiftly, he snatched the gun from Vincent and fired a shot at Hailey. Vincent and Victor turned in his direction."Hailey!" Victor screamed.Hailey immediately turned around only to see a bulle
TWO MONTHS LATER It has been two months since that unpleasant day, two months since a beautiful soul left the world, two months since Vincent was sent to a mental assailant. Honestly, these past months were tormenting and draining. But life goes on. Hailey sighed as she slowly walked up to a tombstone. Victor stood behind her with a rose bouquet. Hailey crouched down to the tombstone. Gently, she cleared the dried roses on the tombstone. Tears clouded her vision, she blinked to stop her tears from falling, but it was pointless, tears streamed down her face and dropped on the inscription on the tombstone. HERE LIES MEGAN BLACK, AN ANGEL TOO GOOD FOR THIS VILE WORLD Reading the inscription for the hundredth time since Megan's demise, Hailey broke down. Victor too, teared up. But wiped his tears, he squatted down and pulled Hailey into his embrace. "It's alright, baby. She is in a better place right now." His voice cracked at the end. It took a lot of effort to restrain the tears t
TWENTY-TWO YEARS LATER TINA “Mum, who do you love most between Ryan and I?” I asked my mum whose entire attention was on my dad. My question made her look up, and upon meeting my eyes she sighed. “Did you have a fight with your brother again?” she asked. “Fight? What do you take me for? A teenager? For Christ’s sake mum, I’m 25. I’m no longer a kid,” I grumbled, looking away. “You definitely had a fight with your brother,” Dad butts in. He walked away from the cellar and approached me. “Tell me, baby. What caused the misunderstanding this time?” Dad asked. Sighing, I rose from the couch where I was seated beside Mum and approached him. Throwing myself into his arms. “Frederick Mills,” I called his full name. “Whatever caused your fight with your brother must be really serious, seeing how you called my full name,” Dad mumbled thoughtfully... “Rosaline Mills,” I call my mum. Who also looked up at me. Giving me a what the hell look. “Am I not old enough to make my own life dec
TINA A throbbing pain in my head made me wince and eventually open my eyes. The blinding light from an open window hit my eyes, making me shut it again. “What the fuck Ryan, do you want to blind me?” I growled, getting ready to pounce on Ryan. but then, no sound was heard. The entire room was calm and still. “Ryan should be laughing right now,” I thought. Shielding my eyes from the light with my hands, my eyes flutter open. Looking around the room, I realized that I was nowhere near my room. The curtains that were supposed to be white, were red. My pink bedsheet was now white. “Where am I? I mumble, looking around the room. Then, it clicked. Lucas and I had gotten a room last night. I immediately began looking around in search of him, but then there was no sign of him. I looked towards my right and noticed a door. “That might be the door to the bathroom,” I thought. “Maybe he is in there,” I mumbled to myself. I decided to get closer to the bathroom door and call out his name.
TINADeciding to end it all, I rose to my feet, grabbing hold of the handle of the already opened window. With great difficulty, I lifted myself from the floor to the window. My hand still clutching the handle tightly, I stared down. Unable to see the ground, I realized that indeed Lucas wasn’t joking when he said he specially chose the 20th floor.“Men are scum,” I cried. My voice, my cries, my shaky hands and my messed up self seemed nothing like me. I felt pathetic and unworthy to be called a Mills. Newfound determination suddenly shoots through me.“Fine, I’d rather end it here to save my family the pain and embarrassment of having a daughter like me.”Eyes shut, right foot pushed forward, I let go of the handle and let myself fall. “I’m sorry for being such a disgraceful daughter,” I mumbled, tears slipping down my cheeks. Just when I thought it was over, a hand suddenly grabbed hold of my arm, dragging me back into the room with so much force that I feared that my arms would br
A WEEK LATER TINA This past week has been very horrible and unbearable for me. I never stepped out of my room. I feel very ashamed and guilty to face my parents. I'm aware of how my scandal has negatively affected them all. Ryan hardly goes to the company these days, Dad manages both companies himself, all because of me. Honestly, I'm not worthy of having any of them. Ryan has been working hard on taking down all the videos, but it seemed like something that wouldn’t happen soon. I’ve always lived an extravagant life, flaunting my wealth at every little chance I get and this earned me lots of enemies. Each time Ryan succeeds in wiping out the videos, it gets leaked again from an unknown website. Ryan has always warned me about my way of life. I can remember his words clearly. “If you keep living like a rich spoilt bitch, it will come back and bite you hard one day.” I never took his words seriously, but now, I finally understood what he was saying. Facing him and the others is some
TINA Ethan is my closest cousin. My relationship with Ethan is nothing compared to what I have with Ryan. Ethan understands and never judges me. His cheerful personality is what endeared him to me the most. He always understands and always offers me advice. I can recall the day I told him about my relationship with Lucas, he had asked to Facetime with him and his reply after speaking with Lucas wasn’t a pleasant one. I can clearly recall his words when he called me later that day after speaking to Lucas. “I don’t like him, Tina. Something feels off about him. I don’t think he is the man for you.” I hung up on him that day and never called him up until this moment. He called me multiple times back then, but I never answered his call. After the incident, his calls constantly came in, but I never answered. Seeing him standing and smiling before me pulled a certain string within me. I felt too ashamed to face him. He had warned me, but I never listened. Now, he also has to pay the pric
