CELINE'S POV

“Who are you!?l I quiz in confusion and shock as well. The person I am seeing is someone I am very well quite certain that I have seen before, and she knowing my name is making it more perplexing.

“Oops… I’m sorry, you looked just like my friend at work.” A blonde haired lady with a sharp jawline and brown eyes waves her hand in apology and shakes her head.

I narrow my eyes and gape at her. “Okay..” I drawl in total dissatisfaction with her response.

“I’m really sorry.” She says and walks away shyly with her red handbag flinging in her left hand. I turn to Harley and she looks as confused as I am. “What just happened here?“ I ask rhetorically and she shrugs. “Weird tho” she mutters and smiles softly, whiffing her gaze back to the lady.

“Let’s just go pay these so we can head back home and prepare for work.” She says and places her hand on my arm. I take my eyes off staring at the lady. I was hoping that she’d turn and maybe give me another glance, but then she doesn’t.

It is so funny that this same man will be aggressive with the young lad but now look at him.“I don’t trust you.” I spew and cock my gun.his eyes are unruly closed and his hands in the air. Looking at his right pinky finger, I can’t help but laugh. It gives me this solace that is unexplainable. There is nothing I hate more than one thinking he is superior to the other just because he or she has money and affluence.“I swear with my great grandmother's name that I am never going to indulge in this kind of misdemeano

    CELINE’S POV“Jane!!” Harley screams. I turn and stare at the side of my arm where the bullet pierced through. Staring at the blood gets me more infuriated than I already am. This shirt is actually my favorite and he just ruined it. “How dare you!?” I growl and take a step forward. The other thug is by my left, screeching like a baby due to his broken arm. “Stop right there or I swear I’m gonna pull the trigger and this time it's to your brains!“ He threatens and points the gun towards my head. Of course I know he hasn’t the guts to shoot me in my head. I can hear how rapid and loud his heart is beating right now. He is tense and uneasy. Surely with this trait, he has no guts to pull the trigger again.“Jane, please stay back. Jane!” Harley screams while still standing away in fear. Her voice is shaking and teary. I do not halt on my movement, but now make my strides even wider. The hooligan takes a step backward and his hand is not stable, tottering from left to right. Now I’m very

He has scraps of sweat in his face after the whole protection he just granted me freely. “Thank you so much for…” I pause and look around, pointing at the old fool that tried to victimize me. Hudson looks at him and shakes his head with a slight scoff of disgust. “It’s nothing.
