"Why?" Venisa sniffed. "God, why? Damien, why?"
When she heard the door shut, she quickly turned to the intruder with a heavy eyeliner smear beneath her eyes. "Oh, Gigi, you won't believe this."
"Believe what?" Gianna's mood was bitter.
"Hey," Venisa jutted her head further up the sofa. "You look horrible. Did you cry?"
Gianna ignored her as she proceeded with her journey to her room.
"Wait! Message from your parents: they'll be home late meanwhile, a certain Rigg will be coming by five thirty and they'll want you to give him an envelope from your father's study. Wait," she pondered. "It has a name written on it...what was that again? VIPS? VMIC? VHSP? VF...urgh! Wait..."
"I'll find it when I get there," she cut her off. "How are you even so sure there's a V?"
"I attributed it to my name. Venisa is pretty...motherfuckers. Oh! I got it. It's VIPM. Yes!" She victoriously fisted the sofa causing Gianna to shake her head.

"Anna?" Gianna halted from proceeding further into the campus after shutting her mother's car. "Are you sure you did not see that envelope on your dad's study table?" Louisa asked for the third time that morning since she was sure and certain to have seen Mason leave the file there before hurrying to the McCoy's mansion. "Mum, again, I did not see it. You know it's not the first time dad is so forgetful." She defended. Gianna had switched its position and meticulously hid it amongst a pile of old files on a bookshelf she knew her dad seldom visited judging from its unkempt condition. And unless she had a say in the verdict or was part of it or at least, was told about it, only then will she unmask its hiding spot. She leaned forward so her arms were resting on the opened front seat window. "How very important is that envelope? Never seen either of you so worried sick about something of the sort before." "Never mind," Louisa waved as she started the engine causing Gianna to step bac

Gianna had planned on walking home and even felt extra glad that Adam requested to tag along. He mentioned occupying the home a couple of blocks away from Mimie's but the town's local who claimed to know a lot about Cold Spring and three-quarters of its inhabitants seemed to not have any idea of the house's occupant. "Well, my aunt and I moved here from California about four days after you." He retorted after Gianna's probe to get to know a little about him. "I guess the news about a family purchasing the historic Vladimir's property overshadowed the mediocre gossip about an ordinary new inhabitant. Plus, we do not mingle a lot." "No wonder," Mimie said. "What about your parents?" Adam shrugged. "They're super busy business folks. I know almost little to nothing about them." He widely grinned. "Crazy right?" Mimie and Gianna said nothing as they all headed toward the campus's gate.From the corner of Gianna's eyes came Sean's same old cold image in the company of his entourage and

The long-anticipated weekend after a week of depression had arrived with the worst news of the century; there wasn't going to be a visit into the city due to the ongoing job at the McCoy's. Gianna damned.The most heinous part of the whole story was the late arrival of the news. Hadn't it been she'd caught her mother dressed in work clothing about to board her car, Gianna would've been the biggest fool hoping they'll return after one or two things done to embark on their journey. 'Don't expect us till four latest,' her mother had said. Now, besides apologizing to Seth and Julia, what else was she supposed to do till then? Seth. Their first date has been jeopardized. Gianna sighed and cursed the McCoy's project, her parent's career inclusive. "Come play with me, I'm bored," Petra abruptly dawdled into Gianna's room. "Hey, Magpie, don't you know the word knock?" Petra walked on after lashing a carefree excuse. "I'm busy by the way. Go play with Noah or watch a show or something."

With a gasp, Gianna bellowed, "What the..." But her outburst was cut short for a while at the illuminated image of a mischievously grinning being. "What the hell did you do?" "Gave you a harmless shower." "You ba—" Sean's arm snaked her neck and from the back, he held her neck tightly and pushed her head toward his chest giving onlookers an impression of a profound hug to a returning lover. "Hey, now, hold that damn tongue of yours back, will you?" His voice was a still whisper around his prey's ears as his grip tightened causing her to wince in excruciating pain. "Unless you want me to do it for you my way." "I wasn't supposed to look for you after our last encounter in the sanctuary, remember? but you made me do it. As if that wasn't enough, you got yourself a guarding dog. I want you to get him out of our business and that stupid stammerer too, else they'll get hurt and I want to see you at my lunch table every day from next week. You should be obediently seated before my arri

"I-I've always felt tha-at girl had bad blo-ood but not to-to this extent." Gianna frown's deepened at a sticker on her notebook cover as if it had offended her more than Kelly's surprising breakout two nights ago. She'd narrated the entire story to Mimie careful enough to not mention the new light her mum viewed her in and of course Sean's threats lest it reached Adam's ears. But then, Kelly's attitude ached Gianna so much that she couldn't help but wonder why she said that. Perhaps she was too fast to conclude; Kelly could possibly have been under the influence of her brother. Blood is thicker than water. "I thought alcohol wasn't sold to minors." Mimie pulled out her glasses and rubbed a smudge away from them with the hem of her blouse. With her eyes squinted she said, "True. That's be-below eighteen or twenty-one in some ci-cities. Even though the t-town's federal drinking age is from twenty as stric-ctly decreed by the mayor si-since two years ago, do you believe Sean to b

"And you forgave her? Just like that?" Adam surprisingly interrogated as they walked through the congested corridor towards the exit. "Why, wasn't I supposed to? May I remind you that she was abused and threatened by her own brother." Adam scowled with a grunt. "I-I suddenly fe-feel bad for misjudging." "Me too." From afar, Gianna spotted a black familiar BMW. "Oh my, I almost forgot about this. Gotta go guys." Thanks to her father, her penalty had been deducted to twelve days, her visit to the city unharmed. Mimie and Adam went on with their journey home. Timider than before, Mimie preferred to wander her gaze around as she waited for Adam to initiate a conversation as it has been. She didn't know why, but whenever she was with him, her heart raced and only a while ago did she realize that she appreciated his company almost as much as Gianna's. Something that never occurred as far as the opposite sex was concerned. Never did she imagine that she will someday get this close to A

The journey to school was the most soothing and exhilarating in a long while; her father sat behind the steering wheel. He introduced an old game of theirs that consisted of guessing either a fruit or an animal with the opponent's given letter within a given time. Preferably within seconds. With Gianna leading, Petra promised to surpass her sister during their next encounter before walking out of the car. Finally alone with her father, Gianna took the little pause between them to ponder on the previous day. She would've loved to play the binding referee as soon as possible had it been Adam was in school. He alerted neither her nor Mimie about his absence. And when they made time to reach him, they kept falling into the answering machine. Mimie who had promised to check up on him in person returned with feedback from his auntie that he had traveled on short notice and will be back the next day. She was officially going to be sixteen on Saturday and she wondered how things will un

"Is there something going on between you and Sean that I should know of?" Elodie triggered. Perplexed and somehow insulted, Gianna snickered. "I don't understand you. What are you precisely saying?" Elodie approached her scapegoat. "What I'm trying to say is, are you seeing my boyfriend? Is there something more between you two behind this facade?" Gianna grunted, "facade? Because you think all this I've been encountering in the hands of 'your boyfriend' is some sick joke? Oh please," Gianna swung her bag over her shoulder. "Save your saliva and time if you do not have a tangible or realistic reason to hold me back next time. Excuse me." Her entire walk away was halted, with a hand on her arm, the very instant she walked an inch past Elodie. "I'm warning you, Gianna," she menacingly held Gianna's gaze. "Stay away from Sean. He loves me so stop wasting your time rubbing yourself on him." Gianna could not believe her ears. She brutally detached her arm from Elodie's grip and faced h
