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

    Walking back into the house, I found the crowd of people still partying and drinking. A girl was stood on a table, dancing. She had a red cup in hands, figure staggering at every second. One could only assume she was drunk. Just as I thought everything seemed fine, the door tore open, and in walked Mr and Mrs Williams. The sight their gazes beheld, caused the corners of their eyes widening, lips gaping the instant they took in the state of the house. Mrs Williams' jaw suddenly dropped, gaze peering at something afar. Turning to the direction which she looked at, I found whatever had brought the lady to such state of shock—The figures of Logan and Arabella, stood at a corner of the room, arms wrapped around each other, while they kissed. Both unaware of the presence of the Mr and Mrs Williams, while their lips moved in sync against each other's. "Logan!" The voice of Mrs Williams jolted the two, the house suddenly turning quiet as every gaze turned to peer at the woman. Logan a

    I woke up the next morning to voices arguing, yells followed and suddenly, there was silence. Can't I just wake to the calm of morning, the beauty that followed? Rather than spew of words every now and then. Oh, yes. How could I forget? I was in the Williams mansion after all. This was what one would wake up to—Ruckus. Making my way downstairs into the living room, I found the whole family sat there, excluding Mr Williams. Perhaps he had gone to work.Present there was also Miss Tara, with Arabella stood right beside her. Their gazes focused on Mrs Williams. They all turned to me the moment I walked in, every eye accessing my figure.Mrs Williams looked like she wanted to say something to me, yet she didn't. Muttering a word of greetings to her, I then proceeded to the corner of the living room, unsure of what to do. "Tara, I'm sure by now, your daughter has told you what's going on" The voice of Mrs Williams broke the silence in the room. Miss Tara at once have a nod to the la

    7:20 am, I stared at the wall clock, gaze peering at it. It was just past the time of resumption, yet none of the maids had arrived. Finger snatching my apron from its rack, I got to work immediately. The kitchen remained in a mess after the party last night, even after Arabella had helped clean it up. Arabella. Sadness crossed my eyes at the thought of her. Even though the girl and I were just getting to know each other, I found myself missing her. The sound of feet approaching the kitchen, snapped me out of my thoughts as I turned to the entrance, staring at whoever was walking through there. Cameron. His gaze rested on me for a few seconds, accessing my figure, and suddenly, he began advancing towards me. Getting up to my feet slowly, I stepped backwards while he drew closer, gaze holding mine strongly.Taking steps back, my body touched the kitchen island, stating there was no where else for me to turn to. He stood right in front of me, placing his hands on the kitchen

    My eyes fixed on my mom, mind finding it hard process all she just said."You're to stop work there" I replayed her words in my head. She had just informed me for whatever reason known to her that I had to stop working at the Williams mansion, because she had enrolled me into a public school, which was not far from where we lived. According to her, I had to begin school the next day. "Mom, you should have at least asked me first, before enrolling me into any school" I uttered, interrupting her. "Aren't you tired of staying home doing nothing, while your peers go to school and learn?" She questioned. "Of course, I wanna go to school""This is just so sudden. Plus, I can't stop working at the Williams mansion" "I need to keep working there, so we can take good care of ourselves" I said to her. "Nia, you must go there tomorrow, and tell them you're no longer working""it's as simple as that" She stated, giving me a warm smile, and then leaving the living room. Meanwhile I drowne

    I was more than eager to receive my pay check, and perhaps resume schooling according to mother. Mother plan she had, I only hoped it worked out. Hurrying into the mansion, I arrived at the doorstep, pushing the door open slowly. I found Kate, dusting the chinaware in the living room, eyes looking up at me the moment I walked in. She eyed my figure, lip's tightening as she resumed what she was doing. Since I got employed into the house, the maids had never taken a liking to me. The only ones who were ever nice to me were, Denna and miss Mary. When the maids were informed that miss Tara had been fired. Kate, immediately made her disapproval known to me. She accused me, saying, that I was the reason Mrs Williams fired miss Tara. "Ever since you came into this house, there's been drama. Drama and mishappenings. You should go back to where you crawled out from. Cause no one wants you here" I remembered her words.Mary at that time snapped at Kate, but she only hollered more. I

    Not in a million years did I ever think nor imagine I would come across the gates of Greenville high, talk more of being held within its walls. It was a school holding lots of history, accomplishments and not to forget, the reputation. Here I was stood in its hallways, completely unsure of where to go, or who to turn to. The word "Newbie" made its mark right on my forehead. I held my school schedule in hands, my eyes searching around for homeroom. Moving to the locker which I was assigned to earlier by the administration, I tossed few of mybooks in there, then turned around, resuming my search. The sound of the bell got my feet hurrying, my figure dashing though the halls. Getting late to class wouldn't be a good impression on my first day, would it?Students pushed past me as they hurried to get to class, figures moving about. A student came crashing at me, getting me almost flat on my face, not until two arms grabbed me. Looking up at whoever was kind enough to save me from

    I was downstairs scrubbing the floors, when I heard someone banging endlessly on the front door. Who on earth could that be? If the person went on like this, they just might bring the door down. Now who could I get to see to the door? Not to lie, I was terrified. Tyler and Logan were out with their friends, and Cameron, well let's just leave it at that. The rest of the maids were in the kitchen doing their chores, I couldn't disturb them. Moving quietly to the door, I turned the lock, pulling the door open. A sight was left for my eyes to behold. Stood right at the doorstep were two police officers, arms holding on to Ashley, while she squirmed under their grip. My eyes at once took to her wrists, realising she was handcuffed. "Good afternoon, young lady" One of the men uttered to me, eyes focused on my figure. "Good afternoon, sir" I responded, pushing myself outside so I could come face to him. "Do you know this girl?" he questioned. "Yes" "Good" he called."Who are yo

    "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.
