Mafia's Innocent Witness Chapter 64
Harper RostovRide For You Today has been a week since I started University. It was not as hard as I thought it would be. My Spanish is getting better and the lectures and locals are very nice. Olivia and I got along well. She is from Jamaica and she is the nicest person I have ever met. The best part is that we are both studying economics. Tamia is not that bad either, the only one we have a problem with is Ophelia. She reminds me of the kind of people my cousin, Madison, hangs out with. Although Veronica and Cathlin are not so bad after you get to know them. I do not plan on ever getting to know Ophelia, therefore I won't know if she has a human side to her."You know I have been saving forever to attend this University. My mom went here, and I just wanted to follow in her footsteps." Olivia says while unwrapping her corn from the plastic she wrapped it in.It makes me sad that she has been saving for a long time and I just had the money handed to me. I swallowed the

Harper RostovRide For You The silence was too loud, so much that I wanted to tuck my head underneath my pillow and stay there. I lay curled up in my bed feeling drained from all my energy. My mood is completely bitter and I haven't eaten since morning so that makes the situation even worse. There was nothing for me to do to brighten my mood.Today started as a bad day the moment I received my test paper. My grade was so low that I'm ashamed to even speak about it. I have always been an A-plus student. Never the average, the reason for this is because I am under a bit of pressure and that makes it a bit difficult for me to concentrate on school.I picked my phone up to see if I had any new messages. I groaned when the only notification on the screen was from Flo telling me that I might have a headache today. Why would I have a headache when it is not even that time of the month?I expected someone to text me or maybe call. My last conversation with Niyler was two da

Harper VargasRide For You The music was so loud it made the ground shake. If my body did not consume so much alcohol then I would start to worry about the cave clasping. My hips swayed to the music as one of Caleb's friends danced behind me. We were having a good time until he gripped my hips and pulled my body against his."You are so beautiful. Do you want to come back home with me?" He whispers in my ear, making bile rise in my throat. "No way in hell, get off me." I tried to pull away, but he wrapped his arms around my waist tightly. His disgusting body pressed against my back.He breaths on my neck with his next words. "Why, do you think you are better than me? I thought you were different, but you are the same stuck-up bitch as you stupid friend." He spits rudely.What friend was he talking about? Did he try this with one of the other girls? As if he was reading my mind he said, "I asked that Damn blonde if she wanted to go out with me and the bitch turn

Harper RostovRide For You "That was so badass. Harper, how did you learn to fight like that." Tamia ask. I grab a piece of bacon and push it in my mouth, it's been hours since I had anything to eat and I was so famished, to the point the food tasted even more delicious.It was after two in the morning and the four of us found a nice twenty-four hours restaurant and decided we should have breakfast and coffee to help sober us up. We laughed and talked as if what happened minutes ago did not happen.Ophelia leans against Olivia's shoulder chewing on her pancake, while Olivia sips on her coffee. It turns out that she was not as bad as I thought and she was feeling much better after the incident. Caleb had grabbed her throat and pushed her to the ground when she refused him. The mascara that ran down her face from her tears was washed away and she looked flawless without the ton of makeup she wore. With all that fakeness gone from her face, she looked like an innocen

Harper RostovRide For You It was after five in the evening when I could pull my tired body from bed. When we arrived at the dorm, it was something after four and I was so tired that I went straight to bed without having a shower or brushing my teeth. My appearance was a mess. Hopefully, having a shower will bring me back to life. I'm considering visiting the restaurant we had breakfast at for some of their delicious coffee. I'm hooked on that now, it's my new addiction.After brushing my teeth, I stood in front of the large mirror in the restroom to see my reflection. Tiredness was evident in my hazel eyes, and my hair was dripping water. I did not feel like blow-drying it, so I wrapped another towel around it, grabbed my shower kit, and headed to the room. The bathroom is the only thing I disliked here. Although it is clean, I would prefer to have my privacy whenever I decide to admire myself in the mirror without other girls walking by giving me evil glares. I

Ophelia KeatenBefore University If I had to sit through another photoshoot then I would go blind from the damn lights flashing from the camera and into my face. This was the worst part of being Manny Keaten's daughter. I only see him for a few hours every month and during those hours I was completely devastated. It was draining and nerve-wracking being around him. We might share the same last name and the same blood, but he felt like a stranger.We put on a great picture for the world to see. To them, my annoying stepmother, Camila, Manny, and I were the perfect family. My reality sucks, my life was far from perfect and there was only one person who made me happy. That is Ryan Johnson, my boyfriend. I met him two years ago at the grand opening of Vikings, a new club in Miami. We made things official six months ago and after leaving the shoot I will visit him at his penthouse. I had an early birthday surprise for him that just can not wait."Ms. Keaten th

Ophelia KeatenBefore University "Ophelia?" Someone says shaking me from my slumber. "Helia," The voice says again. I recognize that it was Quin. She is the twenty-four-year-old daughter of Leoni. The woman who took care of me. When my mother left she took over and treated me like I was her daughter. Quin and I grew up together. Even though we were not the closest she treated me like a little sister. Quin was strange, one moment we got along and the next she was distant as if she was hiding something and was scared I would find out. For my safety, I try not to get very close to her or Leonie. Sure they were there when I was a child, but as soon as I reached my teens I spent most of my time alone. The closer we were the harder it would be when they decided to leave me. "Leave me alone, Quin," I mumble and pull the blanket over my head. "Sweetheart it is noon and you haven't left your bed from morning. Your dad wants to talk to you, unfortunately, that

Ophelia KeatenBefore University I was unable to focus on the match. I kept replaying what Quin said to me and how she hugged me tightly as if she was not going to see me again. I was worried about her. She knew things that I did not and that scared me."Hello gorgeous, why do you look so worried?" I glance up at the tall and handsome guy in front of me. He held his jersey in one hand with sweat dribbling from his golden abs. My eyes met Kain's hazel ones before they moved down to his full pink lips that wore a smile. I snapped myself out of it and looked around me, People were leaving and the scoreboard had the scores 159 to 103. Miami Heat won and I missed out half of the game."Congratulations player. I would hug you, but you are all sweaty." I smile at him. He reached a hand forward and I took it, allowing him to pull me up."Thanks, baby, you know we bring the heat wherever we go." He grins showing his perfect white teeth.I roll my eyes and slap his torso. He t

Harper RostovRide For You "I really hope this is the one. I am so exhausted and I have a test to study for." Ophelia says as we walk up the driveway of a four-bedroom house with our realtor Xandra leading the way. We have been viewing apartments and houses from eight-thirty this morning and it is now three forty-four pm. Who would have thought that it would take so much time and energy to find a decent place to live? It made it even more difficult because we all had different tastes and preferences."I agree. My feet are killing me." Olivia says."I can guarantee you, ladies, this one is my favourite and I am sure you will like it too," Xandra says. She removes the key from her purse and opens the door. We followed her in and looked around. So far, so good. I thought as I looked around the big empty space."Didn't she say the same thing for the last two?" Tamia whispers to me as we continue to follow behind her."She said that for the last three." I correct her and she rolls her eye

Harper RostovRide For You As soon as the door closes behind us Parker turns to face me. His hands were tucked into the pockets of a jean jacket he wore. "Can I get a hug?"I roll my eyes. "Do you think you deserve a hug? You ignored me for days Parker, then you just show up here pretending as if everything is okay."Parker cast his gaze downwards and scratched the back of his neck awkwardly. "I'm sorry Harp, I was in a tough situation." His eyes met mine. "Shouldn't I get a hug for facing my fears and going on a plane just so I can be with you?" He did deserve a hug. I was just being stubborn. He could have still replied to my messages to let me know that he was not alright. "You are such a brave boy, come here," I say playful with open arms.Parker smiles sweetly and pulls me into his arms. I melt away in the comfort his body provides and the amazing scent that comes from his body. It was just so intoxicating. "I missed you, Harper." He whispers."I miss

Harper RostovRide For You*Present Time* The girls and I were in a serious conversation regarding a book Ophelia's mom left her. She had confided in us after we promised to always remain friends. I would never have thought that Manny was so cruel and that Ophelia had gone through half of what she did. No wonder they say that you should never judge a book by its cover."I think you should forgive your mom. She was in a tough situation." Olivia shares her opinion.Tamia shakes her head while throwing peanuts in her mouth. "It is not my decision to make, but I wouldn't. My daughter would have been more important than money. The best thing she could have done was take you with her and run for the hills.""Right!" Ophelia says pointing at Tamia as if that was the best thing she heard all night. "That is what I said to Kain. What do you think, Harp?"I slumped further down on the couch and thought about the situation. Her dad wanted to harm her mom, so she left. Leaving

Tamia LarsonBefore University I don't give a damn 'bout my reputationYou're living in the past, it's a new generationA girl can do what she wants to doAnd that's what I'm gonna do The song by Joan Jett was loud in my ears as I hopped around a few times. I didn't care that the music was loud, I would worry about being hard of hearing in the future. I punched the big brown colour bag a few times. This is what I do to relax and blow off steam. Gunner and I used to practice together, but he left a month ago to serve his country. I punch the bag harder a few times. Having a boyfriend who was in the army was tough. Not one day goes by that I don't worry about him. Boxing and beating on a punching bag helped me a lot, he taught me how to box. He said it would help to release the pent-up anger I had after my father left me, my mom, and my brother, for another family and he was right. "Mia! Tamia!" The distant voice got louder making me look in the direc

Olivia McDonald Going to University in another country was going to cost an arm and a leg. Luckily I have been saving for years, I did side hustles while going to high school so that I could pay for University. It was not legal to sell things on the school compound, but I did that just to get by. I sold snacks and sweets to my classmates so that they could have something to chew on during classes, even though we weren't allowed to eat in class. When the teacher started to suspect me, I had to find another way to make money so I started to sell pens and pencils. Then I upgraded to babysitting and washing cars. When I was in the tenth grade I started my small business called Liv's Collection, where I sell crochet swimwear that I made and also regular two-piece and one-piece sets that I brought from overseas vendors. That was a good business idea and I hope to expand in the years to come.Sometimes business was slow, but other times I received huge orders which was

Ophelia Keaten All of what took place led to this moment. My mother did not abandon me because she hated me, but she did it to protect me and secure what was rightfully hers.

My mother was the rightful owner of the oil company my father runs. She is the brain and the one who started it from scratch.
