THIRD PERSON POV...

The approach of Savannah from the other end of the hallway caused Ashley giving an eye-roll, already catching on to the arrival of trouble.

"If it isn't miss I-wanna-belong." Ashley uttered with a fake smile plastered on her lips, eyes examining the figure of the girl stood feet away.

"You really think I wanna be seen with your clique?" Followed the response of Savannah, her voice filled with disdain.

"You're getting it all wrong Ashley" Savannah began, clicking her tongue.

"You know, I could make everything you think you've worked for shatter in just a second...... So if I were you, I would watch my mouth, before I slap the british life out of you" She added.

"Too bad you're not me" Ashley responded, taking a step closer to her.

"You seem to run your mouth so fast, but you're forgetting something"

"You're in my house! And I could throw you out faster than you could say bitch!"

"I'm here for Cameron" Savannah cut in. "So please go get...

    There's nothing much better than waking up to a beautiful Saturday morning, with birds chirping and singing by your window side, right?.Trust me, it felt so good. I turned in bed, hearing the sound of my mom's voice beckon to me. "Nia, breakfast is ready." She called from the kitchen. A beautiful day it was, the aroma of my mom's cooking filling my nostrils, confirming the goodness of dawn. Getting out of bed slowly, a weak yawn escaped my lips, while my hands rubbed at my eyes which were still yearning for more sleep. Stepping out of my room, I proceeded into the little bathroom mom and I shared to run myself a warm bath. Not long after half an hour of me washing and undergoing a round of thoughts while in the bath, I got changed into proper clothes, and then made my way to the kitchen. I found mom over there, busy making toast. She was back to her usual act of getting food ready, just in time for me to have my breakfast, right before leaving. Her gaze took in my figure as

    Sunday went by so quick, and then came Monday, resumption of work, resumption of aches and worries.I got to the Williams mansion earlier than usual. The house being eerily silent upon my entrance. Not a single figure could be seen around.Grabbing my apron from the rack where it was hung, I commenced my round of duties. Few of the maids, I spotted roaming around getting one thing done or the other. An hour in, and I still didn't hear the voice of Ms Tara yammering about one thing or the other. If it wasn't the floors not properly scrubbed, it would be the walls bearing stains. Maybe, just maybe she had decided to give it all a rest on this fine Monday. Very unlikely of her.The sound of a car pulling up in the driveway, got me peering out through the window of the living room, wanting to check on whoever it was. Realizing it could be Mrs Williams who had returned home, I hurried up with the dusting, hastening up at once. The door tore open, and next came in a figure. Cameron.

    We arrived at my apartment not long after leaving the mansion, the silence we began the journey with, still ensuing amongst us. Just how impossible was he? The question lingered in my heart while I stole a glance at his profile. Grabbing the keys from the back pocket of my pants, I unlocked the door at once, its hinges creaking a little, just as my fingers pushed open the doorway. I noted the absence of mom, which meant she either went grocery shopping, or was out visiting her therapist. After the surgery, the doctor had advised her to pay a visit to the therapist twice a week so as to improve on her health. My mother never for once liked laying her troubles to anyone, certainly not a therapist, but after the surgery, all of that seemed to change.Cameron walked in slowly after me, his eyes surveying the living room."Nice apartment" I heard him say, meanwhile, his eyes peered intently into mine. I could tell he was only mocking me. This house was nothing compared to his. His

    I was back to work, doing my usual routine of cleaning, when the triplets stumbled in, taking to the stairs at once. Next proceeded the figures of Logan and Tyler, speaking in muffled voices, yammering to each other. They took no notice of my figure crouched low to the ground, dusting and cleaning. Unlike every other day, I noticed Tyler actually spoke much more than he used to. His head fell back, while he laughed heartily to whatever Logan was saying. A figure walked in right behind--Cameron, eyes focusing on my form, while I averted my gaze at once, resuming my cleaning. I heard him call my name, causing me to turn to him, noticing as he scratched at his forehead, gaze peering on at me. Was he nervous? "Thanks for yesterday" "You did save me" he uttered quietly, averting his gaze from my figure.Grabbing an item from his backpack, he held it in his outstretched hands."I want you to have this""A bid of saying 'Thank you' for helping me out" I stared blankly at him, totally

    I was taught that most times we act outside ourselves, doing that, which we ordinarily wouldn't. Sometimes we don't know why we do the things we do, and at this moment, I still couldn't tell the reason for my act. Here I was, stood outside the soccer field of Greenville High. Yes, I finally decided to go for the game. Initially, I had lied to Miss Tara that I was having cramps and I had to go home, which the lady didn't believe. She sensed immediately that something was up, so she refused to let me go. After much pleas from me, giving her random excuses as to why I had to take my leave, she finally agreed to let me go, but there remained certain conditions. The condition was that I was to return to the Williams mansion at exactly 5:00 pm, and also, I had to remain there for the night, just to complete the chores I left behind. Unhappy I was at first with her 'condition', cause I never informed mom that I wouldn't be returning home for the day, but after much thoughts, I gave in

    I hurried my feet away from the bleachers, turning to leave. After all, the game was over. Despite the game been finished, and the champions being awarded their medals, I could still hear people cheering on, while they made their way out of the field. White paints splashed all around, as artists made sure the give the field a piece of art, spraying the grass with white colours, and having the words 'Greenville High' sprawled on it.The area in less than a second had turned wild. I moved away from the field, approaching the exit, when I heard call of my name. Turning around at once, I found Cameron, figure stood feet away, eyes peering on at me, with that smile still on his face. Fiddling with my fingers nervously, the corners of my lips tugged upwards, returning his smile. "Congratulations" My voice remained low, eyes locked in his. "You came" I heard him mutter to me, while I nodded, smiling on at him. "Thanks for coming" He uttered in a calm voice, his gaze never leaving mi

    THIRD PERSON POV... The figure of Cameron was advancing into the hallway, Ashley tagging right behind, while her voice bugged him on. Every now and then, she would yell at him, demanding answers to the question she had been at over and over again. "I've told you already, I've got no idea where he is" "I know you're lying, Cameron. Just tell me already and I'll stop following you around" Ashley responded in a tone that was already laced with frustration. "What aren't you getting about this?!" He snapped at once, "I have no idea where Jake is" He added, finally having a glance at her. "He's your best friend. How can you not know his whereabouts. Or have you decided to cover up for him?" "Now, why would I do that? The last place I saw him was in the living room partying with the rest" "I haven't seen him since then" "Now please, leave me alone"His voice was low, but the anger in it could easily be detected in his tone. Turning around the corner of the hallway, he resumed walki

    NIA'S POV…I sat up in bed, murmurs followed by yells coming from the hallway."Bitch!" It wasn't difficult making out Ashley's voice from the rest. Getting up from the bed I was laid in, I proceeded out of the room going to have a view of whatever was going on out there.People were crowded in the hallway murmuring on about something unknown to me. They were all stood in front of a room, peering on at whatever was going on inside there. I saw the figures of Logan and Tyler suddenly rushing in.Moving closer, I stopped right outside the door, having a look.Cameron came in sight, figure being restrained by Tyler and Logan. His scrutiny remained focus on someone. Tracing his gaze, I saw a half naked Savannah, hands gripping onto the sheets tight, while she protected her unclad body. "I'm sorry" her words wavered, while tears poured out her eyes. "I swear, it was a mistake." She whispered, choking on her tears.My eyes soon turned to the figure stood by the bedside, and at once, I

    "We can't let you through ma'am" My eyes were found gaping at the form away, holding onto such hostile air which exhumed from the fellow. "Sorry, what?""Mr. Holden has requested he best be left alone...He has informed us not to let anyone in" He clarified. "I work for him......at the company" My words barely had little effect on the man away, as that smug scowl still rested on his lips, with eyes holding a haze of trauma, and brute."We're gonna have to ask you to leave, young lady" He followed at once, motioning for me to step away. "It's important I see him, Sir" "You have to leave, Miss" "It's urgent" "I'd hate to repeat myself" "Come on!" My arms flung in the air, exasperation claiming the most of me."Ma'am, Please. You're creating a scene" My jaw had dropped without warning at his choice of words, eyes gaping on at him. "I'm creating a scene?" The scoff left my lips, gaze peering at that profile. "If you don't mind me asking, what's the name?" "Carl" He followed wit

    And here we were, forms centered on the office floor, with burnt cig ashes littered over the marble tiles, while the sound of my laughs poured out into the room. "I'm telling you, Jane. I found myself mopping floors with my garments, all in sakes of bringing food to my mouth" Spoke Louis. "It was a hectic one, Jane" "Life never is easy" "Not in a million years would I believe you come from such home, so raggedy, even to an extent of being feasted by rats" I called in a low voice. "Oh, not just the rodents, Jane" He whispered. "Even the roaches and snakes took abode in our home, and only then did it hit me, that I wasn't living. Not until I got the comfort I sought, the peace......and the joy" He called in a low voice. "One never is serious, not until they get a push" He let out. "Mine came about, at the height of the poverty that feasted my heart. That, Janet Parker, was my turning point, and my snap to work" "What is yours?" Those eyes searched through mine, words hitting my

    The reception received upon my entry into Cigg Holdings, was beyond exceptional, I tell you. Each one of the people bore smiles on their face, with eyes beaming on at me, their arms opened up to receive me, at this point, I was made to believe there was something else to the occasion. Could I have turned so important overnight. "Oh, please. Don't get the poor lady, startled" The calm voice of Mr Vettriano soon took the space, with his figure coming right into view. "We can save the cheers for when eventually she takes office" He chuckled, with hands reaching out to take mine. "I hope" He added in a low voice. "Miss Parker, I long awaited your visit" He stepped aside, motioning for me to step into the elevator before him. Those eyes watched me keenly. Holding onto to every slight movement I gave, with a look of glee I still couldn't decipher."I'm sorry, I couldn't meet up on time" My voice was low, eyes watching his fingers set the elevator to the last floor. "Nonsense, Jane"

    "Why do you look ravishing today, Miss Parker?" My eyes had snapped to the form of Susy proceeding into the office, hands holding onto a paper bag."Why?" I followed with confused eyes peering on at her."You look beautiful, not to lie" That certainly must be a lie,m, cause I believe looked just the way I felt, and I can tell you I didn't feel so good.Saying I was tired, was merely an understatement. I was utterly drained, completely knackered as one would say. "I gotta tell you, Susy. When a lady hears how beautiful she is, she flushes not because she actually is beautiful, it's because it helps boost her confidence" "If I do look beautiful, then I must go on being stressed, cause I can't tell what's changed with me. But stil, thank you for that" I saw a smile creep up her lips, eyes beaming on at me."No, thank you. Miss Parker" She fell silent, eyes only watching me carefully, and next came the same Susy I was familiar with. "Miss Parker" Her voice was soft, gaze never lea

    "Become a manager at Cigg. Holdings"Those words still rolled around my head, despite it being days since Louis had stepped here. Me? A manager to one of the top companies in the state, if not the best. What exactly did I know about managing such huge business?But I tell you, Louis was one to think otherwise. In fact, he deemed me the best match to head such organization. Now, why would that be? I still couldn't figure out, all i found myself re-living, were his utterances. This was massive. It spelt a new path in my life. Me heading such organization as Louis' was bound to change all about me. And I mean that in every good way. My life was to change for good. But why me? What exactly did he mean by his interest piqued in getting familiar with my character? What character exactly? If anything I was an utter mess. A sore one. Why then did Louis Vettriano choose to come to me with such offer that just was irresistible. "Jane"I was snapped at the sound of that voice, eyes comi

    "My life's only a rollercoaster, Tara" My figure had crashed right onto the couch, taking the space next to her form. "A rough ride it is" I could feel her eyes scanning my profile, no words coming from the girl away. At once I had snatched the heels off my feet, sinking my legs onto the plush carpet, and I tell you, the feel that rushed through was just every comfort I sought. "Can you believe Louis Vettriano stopped by the office today. The life had soon rushed back to me, with every delight filling my gaze, while those words stumbled out my lips. "He was there to offer me a job, Tara. A job!?" "He offered to make me his manager"The eyes of Tara only watched me while I went on. She had barely made an utterance, that gaze only remained intent on my form. "I'm entirely lost, Tara" My voice was low, eyes faltering. "Whatever do you think I should do?" "Okay, that's enough, Jane!" Followed the voice of Tara, figure tearing off the couch at once. "You put up with this every now

    "There are a lot of things left for one to behold in this world, Miss Parker" My gaze shifted to the form of Louis, ears perked, at each word that came tumbling out his lips. I dare not be distracted. He had so managed to earn my undivided attention effortlessly, with eyes watching him, watching every slight movement he gave."You, Miss Parker, are an exceptional lady, I must say"He waved at the lady behind the counter, calling for her to return with the cups of coffee he had ordered minutes ago. I gaped on like I was caught in some sort of trance. Perhaps, I was. For it be the fact that this man wasn't on my TV screen, or the page of some magazine held between my fingers. No, no, no. Louis Vettriano was sat right before me. Far away from Holden Inc. we were. For some reason, he had decided to take me to the café right down the street, prepared to make his business known. I soon caught sight of the lady approaching, hands bearing a tray holding the cups of coffee, Mr Vettriano

    "Miss Parker?" "Miss Parker!" I jolted at the voice which deemed it fit to ruin the peace that had taken a hold of me.Oh, the calm I had found myself in, now altered by whoever that form was that had now waddled into the area. It was merely five minutes gone that I was found basking in every serenity that came with the office space, mind lost in thoughts, having its own wandering, when that voice came stumbling in, altering a moment that I felt was just irredeemable. "Miss Parker!" "What is it, Susy!?"Believe me I tried my best to remain calm, I pinched myself to, but the incessant call of my name, by a girl whom I had been direct in sending downstairs, to fetch nothing in particular, just to evade her babbles, for as peaceful as five minutes could be, soon got me snapping to her, eyes taking in her form. She paused at my outpour, eyes shifting through the room for a minute, and at once her eyes lit up, figure pulling closer to mine. "There are some people downstairs, request

    I let the form of Tara crash into my hands, a low grunt pouring out her lips upon the impact of our figures.She had bruises all over. With eyes still holding onto the fear that had caught her half an hour ago, there still remained patches of blood on her lips. "I'm sorry" My voice wavered, eyes pulling her even tighter to myself. "I'm sorry, Tara" She barely made an utterance, instead, her grip on me only tightened, body relaxing in mine. "Janet Parker?" Came the voice that managed to pull our figures apart. "I'll need you for questioning" I stared at the middle-aged man before me, eyes holding onto the same joy it held, while he burst into our house, tackling George to the ground. He had smacked him repeatedly, holding a gun to his face, and in all of his glory, he tore a cuff out, placing it on the wrists of the man who would have been my murderer, if they hadn't arrived just in time.
