~Vaxel's Point of view~
I watched her walk into the club.
Sitting by a conner which was a bit secluded and calm, I watched both Clarissa and Louisa walk into the club, Clarissa had changed over the years, she looks even prettier, she'd grown so beautiful, her body looked amazing, her shape.
Her hips looked wider than I've ever seen it, she looked matured. Seeing her at the airport made me realize how much I missed her and how much I failed her, I wish it was possible I wouldn't had let dad control me back then.
I never wanted to let go of her. For a moment I thought she'll hug me tight but she didn't, she walked out on me.
I've missed her, missed her voice, her smiles.
She's still friends with Louisa and Jason, the guy I've never liked, I've always known that he'd had feelings for Clarissa, I saw the way he looked at me when I stumbled into Clarissa.
It was like I was monitoring her, I watched her every move since she arrived at the club.
She stood from where she sat and staggered to the dance floor, she started moving her body in beautiful rhymes of the music.
On the other hand Louisa sat with Jason, drinking and having a chat, it is at all none of my business. My gaze couldn't leave Rissa, I watched her like I was paid to do so.
Because of how she danced, guys gathered her and began cheering her up, she moved her waist in different styles.
"Yeah!" Her voice came, you could tell she wasn't in her right frame of mind, she was drunk already."
Suddenly, this guy with blonde her, went closer to her, he touched and began making silly moves around her.
I turned to where Louisa sat, maybe Jason waa watching and would react. The seats were empty, were did they go to.
Watching closely, I noticed the way the man roamed his hand around her body as she danced. He leaned towards her and said somethings into her ears.
I turned towards the bar, Louisa and Jason weren't there.
Rissa danced around like someone that had gone crazy, obviously she was, she was drunk. He grabbed her by her wrist and made to walk out with her.
I wished to sit put but, my wish weren't granted as I walked out of the club, quietly following thier every move.
"Hey, where you taking me to?" She asked trying to take her hand away from his.
"C'mon doll, you danced real well in there, I'm sure you'll do so well in bed" He voice alone was displeasing to my ears.
"No thanks dude, I. I..I ..I w*..w*nna go back in there and dance my sorrows aw*y"
"Sorrows? There's a better way to take away your sorrows doll and I promise it's good" He said but Rissa pulled her hands from his and began walking away from him.
"I said, I want to dance, if you touch me, I'll call the cops" she rasped
"C'mon doll don't play hard to get, let get in the car"he pulled her towards him, opened his car and was about pushing her in.
I didn't want to make any hasty decision, I wanted to see everything the bastard would do. I want to protect her but I don't want her seeing me, she would never like it.
"Let me go you fool, I don't want you touching me!" She drawled realising hysterical laughter's.
He pushed her to the car, letting her back hit the car aggressively. He pushed his lips to her neck and started kissing her.
As much as I wanted to stay out, and wished to not get involved in this shit, I couldn't just watch a complete stranger violate her.
Tulking my left hand into my pocket I walked towards the man.
"Dude! She said she wants your hands, off her body" I sneered
He turned to face me immediately. " And why do you care?"
"Let her go man!"
"Fuck off, I got her first" What the hell is the fool talking of, I don't want her, I'm just saving her huge butt.
"Let's go Rissa!" I grabbed her with my right hand and made to leave but the guy pulled her backwards.
"Man! Fuck off!" I threw a punch at his face, grabbed Rissa and started walking away, just then I felt him pull her from me, giving me a blow the moment I turned, his had went straight to my nose.
WTF!
Cleaning the blood from my nose, I gave a smirk, walked closer to him very slowly, I'll definitely kill him if I don't control my anger, I sent a shivering slap across his face, Rissa shrieked and ran to me, she stayed behind me holding my waist firmly.
I grabbed the man by the neck, I squeezed and pressed in, making sure he was out of breath.
"Heyyy..!" He tried to breath but I pressed on making sure I suffocated him.
"Let him go!"Clarissa's voice was so feeble.
"Let him go!" She yelled and I realised a grunt before letting go of his neck.
"Stay away from her!" I spat out angrily, glared hard at him, I wish I could just squeeze life out of him.
I grabbed Clarissa and walked her out of the club environment, I don't even know where I was heading to.
Maybe a little walk will help her.
"Can you let go of my hand, I want to go back in and have a fun filled night" She rasped.
It's been so long I heard her voice.
In as much as she wanted me to let her go, I didn't, I held unto her tightly and walked further to where I had packed my car.
"What do you want for me? Why the hell can't you leave me alone" She yanked her hand away from mine and began walking away.
What the hell is wrong with her, she'll get into more trouble.
Even as my heart warned me against helping her I couldn't.
"If you knew you wouldn't be able to be in control of your body, why did you drink?" I asked and she turned hastily to me.
"Why do you care? Are you my dad? Are you my mom?"She asked and I kept mute.
"You see, you are not my mom nor my dad, and you are not my boyfriend either, so just back off"
She laughed and made way to the road.
"Rissa, we have to take you home!"
"No, let me be" She walked further to the road.
She walked to the middle of the road and began dancing.
"Rissa!"
"Rissa!" I yelled the road was quite calm.
"Rissa!" I called when the alarming honk of a car filled my ears.
The car was on a very high speed and Rissa, I don't know she'd already gone crazy and was dancing, she never noticed that car.
Tension filled my body, I was scared, the car was on a high speed. Gosh!
I ran to the road and pulled her forcefully, making the both of us roll to the ground.
"Fuck you!" I cursed the moron driving the car.
"Clarissa" I called tapping her cheeks.
She was faint.
~VAXEL'S POINT OF VIEW~ I barely knew my way around, I've not been here for five years, things have changed. I picked her up from the ground without knowing what to do. I can't take her back into the club and I had no means to contact Louisa. I had Clarissa, in my arms as I walked towards my car, opening the door, I placed her gently in the car. They should be a hotel where she could stay for the night. ~~~~~ Laying her gradually on the bed, I tried to stand straight afterwards but she held unto my arm, looked back at her but her eyes were completely shut, this looks like a typical romantic scene. I lowered myself to the ground and held unto her hand, I stared at her deeply, maybe I could prey into her mind, maybe I could look into her head and know if she was dreaming of me. Or just maybe, I could know how she felt to have me back in the states. "I'm sorry" I carresed her face. I wish I was stronger, I wish I fought. "Why you back into my life?" her voice came so low, it w
Clarissa walked into the bathroom hastily, as much as her head was banging and was hurting, she couldn't rest neither could she act at a very slow pace. She needed to wash the dirty and alcoholic stench she had on her. Letting the water from the mouth of the shower hit her back, she hissed several times. She still wasn't able to understand how and why Vaxel helped her. Did he somehow still have feelings for her? She was sceptical about it. She should, she should have doubts about it, how could someone who had left her, someone who had no faith in their relationship, still love her. Someone who took their relationship as a joke still harbours feelings for her. Even at that, she was definitely not okay, since she'd gone lost thinking of a loser like him. Getting out from the shower, she dried her body, put on the clothes which she'd worn to the club There was no other decent cloth for her to wear else she'd never in her entire life repeat an old dirty cloth. Clarissa walked out o
"What are you saying hunny?""We are going to the party!" Clarissa's father stated, she could practically feel the anger in his chest region."That's so unreasonable" Clarissa's mother, Mrs Vicente rolled her eyes, trying to understand what had gotten Into her husband.His forehead looked really red and had beads of sweat breaking out."Exactly what I've been telling him for the last one hour!""We are going for his damn party at that's final!" The man spoke angrily. If there was anything the man hated was when he was being looked down on. How would he let that man walk into his office and insult him. He was definitely stealing his show and the spotlight from him."Hunny common! Don't make hasty decisions""Dad, I'm not going. Besides, I have important things to handle"."We are all going and that's final!"..He roared like the man of the house that he was."Dad that's so dumb! Who goes to their enemy's territory?" She questioned. Her mother's brown eyes gave her his almost supportive
Clarissa walked back into her father's room where he was anticipating the big party he was going to steal. "Dad, this isn't going to help us,I have a very bad feeling about this!" She said walking in. Her face had a frown on it as she tried to talk her father out of his so-called plan.First she didn't want to go out, she wanted to stay naked all night in her room, since all the piled up work she had was finally done. Secondly, attending the party meant that she'll be facing him. She'll have to see Vaxel, no matter how hard she'll try she'll still see him. Her entire system, brain and body wants nothing to do with him, wants nothing to do with his face."Rissa, you should get ready, call your make-up artist, whatever, get ready!" He replied to her."Dad!" She frowned more."Or you can call Louisa, I heard she's back in the states, haven't seen her but I'm sure she can help you with your makeup and hair!" He smiled at her. The smile he gave was like a torn in her flesh, she felt like
Chapter 10 His lips tore into a smile watching her small lips grow into a wide smile, he held her tight as they danced to the rhythms of the slightly faint tones of the mild classic music. Her very light body hugged him, making him inhale the very beautiful perfume she wore. His grandmother pushed herself to hug him tight, she was his first dance. This was all like a dream to her, after five years of being away he was back to the states and she's just not getting enough of him. Her body was growing so old, she'd thought she'd die before he's back, she'd begged her son to bring back her grandchild because she misses him but he didn't. Now he was back and back for good. The party had begun, guests were already arriving. Waiters walking around with different starters for the night. The pool side was very well decorated, having fancy tables at each stand, and different expensive drinks on the table. The main room still had tables. Classic music was ente
Chapter 11The Vicentes walked graciously into the party, Mr Vicente's wore a black tuxedo, his almost grey hair was combed to the back, he had this very expensive look on. His wife Clara look exceptional, her brown hair was rolled in beautiful bonds, the body hug gown she wore show cased her beautiful shaped curve. Like mother like daughter, Clarissa was dressed in a red gown, which had her curves showing too, her hair was coiled even more and was poured on both shoulders Even if her smile was so fake, she looked pretty, her hazel eyes stared with pleasure seeing how all the attention was drifted to her and her family."Mr Jericho!" Her father had this sarcastic smile on his facenas she spoke."Vicente you came, oh how nice of you to come. Your family too, I thought you were bigger than this, but you proved me wrong, you still showed up."The music slowly began playing once again. It was time for the dance.For no reason, Clarissa eyes searched the building, for no reason, she was l
As much as she wanted to speak she couldn't, she found herself becoming dumb, she swallowed the lumped that formed in her throat.She wanted to push him away, yell at him, hurt him so much for never showing up that night but she didn't know why she wasn't speaking. Why was she letting him get her and be so close to her even after reprimanding herself and teaching herself to fall out of love for him, even after knowing the consequences of everything happening right there."I waited! I waited that night but you didn't show up" it was almost inaudible, if he wasn't so close to her, he never would have heard."I know but I have a reason, I didn't come, I want to let you know but I can't, I can't tell you." Just then did she remember to refrain from the man her father had warned her about.She let go of his hand and shoulder. "Please let me be Mr Jericho." She tried to walk out but he held her still."Please don't go.""What do you want from me?" Her voice cracked, she hated that she was w
Louisa gazed at his back from where she sat in the kitchen stool, Jason had always had a huge body, but five years had past and he looked huger and much more muscular. He had just an apron on with his pants, his shirt was long gone because he prefers cooking without a shirt.Louisa couldn't help but stare at him after all the man cooking In front of her was her highschool crush, she'd always had a thing or two for him but was too childish back then to speak out. Her head thought of nothing but how good he looked."I still do not get you Louisa, how do you mean, you were on a scholarship throughout highschool. I mean you look rich, although you were a very quiet and shy person, I'm still wondering how you've changed so much.""I looked rich but I wasn't, even till date. I really didn't come to school so early for nothing sake, I didn't attend late classes because I wanted to, I had a reason. I was always the first to come to school, so people wouldn't see me when I walked into the scho
Clarissa ended the call halfway through her speaking then began following him as he drove.His house was pretty far from his father's old house and it took them a long time to get there. Countless times she'd almost lost him because she was trying to hide from him but they were there finally.From a reasonable distance she watched him get into his apartment. She wanted to go to him but she remembered the pain he caused her and the war between both families.Closing her eyes, she drove out of the area.It was already so late into the evening when he got to his house and staying to watch him get into his house and contemplating took her several other minutes and she was already late.She'd promised Louisa that she would come pick her up and now she was late. She promised to be there by 4: 30 now it was 6pm.She pressed her lips together placing a call through Louisa."Hi best" "Hey. You were late..I waited so I had to go home.""I'm sorry, I'll be home in the next fifteen minutes""I'm
"Sure, I was in the party hall having some chats and drinks when I felt uneasy , I told my husband I was going to use the restroom, since I barely knew a thing. I asked a girl who served drinks where I could use the restroom and she directed me. I walked up to the restroom, when I was done and about getting to the door, the lights in the restroom began flickering. The door was pushed open and someone got in, I really can't remember what happened. I just woke up beside my husband this morning." She explained. "You mean, you didn't see anything else?" "Yes." "How did you faint?" He asked. "I don't know, the only thing I noticed was that I felt the door was opened, not felt, I heard the door crack open but no one walked. If someone did I should have heard but I didn't the next I felt something sting me and that was it." Sje explained. "I'll get to ask you some other questions very soon ma'am your case is quite complicated and we have to get to an end soon. " "Okay."She nodded. ~~~~
The next morning.Louisa and Clarissa climbed down the stairs fully dressed for work. Both ladies had their hair laying on their shoulders. Clarissa was in a velvet colored gown. The gown was tight on her body and showed her every curve, her hips were threatening to tear the sides of the skirt.Louisa smiled seeing the middle aged woman sit on the dining chair."Aunty!" She smiled rushing to her."Baby girl. " She smiled as Louisa bent to kiss her."How are you dear, I've missed you so much.""I'm fine aunty." She took her head up beaming and smiled at the woman."Good morning mom!" Rissa kissed her cheeks."Good morning Uncle" Louisiana moved the forward and placed a kiss on his cheeks."My little liar,"he chuckled."Uncle." She drawled."I see you've stepped up your game." He cracked."C'mon uncle." She laughed."Rissa teaches me all I need to know.""You devil." Rissa glared hard at her attempting to smack her "Don't you dare Rissa. Don't hit my baby" Rissa's mother glared at he
Vaxel sat on the floor of the hospital. The news about the death of his grandmother has spread like wildfire. And his father's house was almost burnt to ashes.He let the tears roll down his eyes, he didn't even get to spend some more time with her. She was gone and would never come back.He had heard about Clarissa's mother's accident; she was also hospitalized too. Was this some sort of welcoming game, what was happening?This question filled his head."Mr Jericho. I am inspector H. Damien. And I've been assigned to investigate the death of your grandmother."Vaxel took his head up when he heard the voice of the inspector."I and my team will interrogate each and every family which attended your welcome party starting from you." Fredrick nodded.Vaxel stood from the ground "We promise to render all support and help, we will tell you all you need to know and in return help us get justice for the murder of my grandma!" Vaxel said he looked so anxiously and miserably sad. His eyes had
Louisa sat on the fountain with Jason, she ate from the bowl of noodles while having a conversation with Jason. He'd forced her to eat something, even if it was a little amount of food. With a chopstick, she took the noodle in her mouth."Where did you learn to cook such noodles? " She asked him, Jason smiled at her, she thought he lied when he said he knew how to cook."I just learnt it. I guess I have this thing for food, I learn new recipes anytime I cook.""That's nice but it's so bad I really don't know how to cook. I guess the only thing I can do properly is heat food in the microwave.""Woah! You have a long way to go.""Will you be my tutor?" She asked."Well! You'll have to pay a fee.""Of course, how much?" She asked innocently."I don't know. I'll probably tell you later." Just then, Louisa's phone rang out loud She took it to her ear after excusing herself and the very gentle voice of Clarissa came. "Hey babe!""Hey, You're coming home tonight right? ""No, I'll be spen
Clarissa ran down the lobby with her father following behind her."Mom!" She pushed doors, looked into rooms, when she didn't see her mother anywhere in the room, she went to the next door. "Mom!" She kept yelling. She pushed the last door open to see her mother lying on the floor with a knife in her hand. "Mom! Dad, come here! Help, someone! " She yelled, tapping her mother. Her eyes opened slowly as she realised slight grunts. Clarissa realised a light huff at least her mother was okay. With the help of her father, she took her mother out to the ambulance. The moment they took her mother, she turned to see Vaxel's. He had his head on the figure that laid covered up on the bed, blood stains all over his body. "Grandma, please come back. You cannot leave me like this, you're leaving just like everyone is. You're not dead, I refuse to believe this." He hadn't even spent a whole day with his grandmother now she was dead. The ambulance that had Mrs Vicente in
