I greeted her immediately and she came into view."Where are you going?" I asked her. She was dressed in a spot panties and top."For morning exercises girl." she replied."Everyone is going, probably except from Bianca cause she would be preparing the pool for the afternoon pool party." Elaina said."And when was all this organized that I had no idea of?" I couldn't help but ask."Last night when you walked out angrily on everyone and left your food, I couldn't say no to it. Who knows we might be ice skating again, so bored." Eliana said while putting on her back bag."See you later, bye sis." she said and blew a kiss to me which I caught dramatically and we laughed."Bye Elia
Pool party 2ANN'S POVWe all arrived home early before the pool party was about to start."Ann!!" I heard Raynes' voice calling from behind.I turned around and stopped in my tracks waiting for her to reach me."Hey girl what's wrong?" Rayne asked calmly as she got to me."I'm fine." I replied to her trying to be bold and outspoken. cause lately I've been hiding behind the shadows."I didn't see you last night at dinner, neither did I see you this morning." Rayne said."I went jogging with Samatha." I replied."Oh you girls are now getting along, tell me about it." She said with a light giggle.How do I tell her that I'm in love with a girl who's not even in love with me."No Rayne, we all went jogging this morning." I said trying to push the topic of Samantha aside."I'll see you by the pool then, but till then whatever you feel like sharing with me, I'm always here." Rayne said."Thank you Rayne." I said as I hugged her tightly.All I needed was a shoulder to rely on right now and
HeartbrokenRAYNE'S POVI couldn't bear the pain I felt in my heart as it felt like my heart was being pierced with a thousand knives.I followed Ann like a child following the lead of their parents.I got to my room and sat down on the bed."Rayne, look at me." I heard Ann's voice but it wasn't that clear.It was like my body was dead and my mind was awake."Rayne, say something!" Eliana half yelled."Rayne!!!" Eliana yelled and I felt a hot slap landing on my chicks bringing me back to reality."Ouch that hurt." I said while holding my chicks."Thank goodness you're now alive." Elaina exclaimed as she fell on the bed with a heavy sigh of relief."Rayne what's wrong?" Ann asked.For a moment I fought with reality to believe that Bianca was Eric's secret lover, but why didn't Ann tell me anything about it.My eyes fell on Ann and I felt betrayed by someone I had trusted, my eyes became watery and I couldn't hold on to the tears for long. The hot tears fell down my chick like mountain
BelievingRAYNE'S POVI walked gently down the corridor and then down the stairs.it seemed as though everyone was out. I sighed in relief and walked out and strode into the garden.I inhaled the scents of so many plants, while some made me want to throw up the others gladdings me with their pleasant smell."I know you could not be all by yourself, that's why I stayed." I turned around and it was Bianca. Oh no this was what I was avoiding.I kept quite acting as though I didn't hear her, it was so obvious I didn't want to talk to her but she kept pushing."What, are you scared to talk to me?" She asked."No, I'm just avoiding you." I replied."Why are you avoiding me, you think I would try to hurt you?" She asked.but I kept quite still keeping my eyes on the plants."I'm not a psychopath like you." I replied.She chuckled lightly."Baby girl I'm not a psychopath, I'm just trying to get what's mine." she said while giving her pretense smile.What does she mean by getting what's hers?

The daily routine has been the same.I got into my car and zoomed off to work. I got to my office after about an hour of driving. I dropped my briefcase on the chair beside mine and sat down.I pressed a button on my desk and my secretary came running in."Sir, you called for me." She said immediately she got in."Make me a cup of hot coffee." I said and she nodded and walked out.She got back five minutes later with a cup of coffee and dropped it on the table and left.I opened my laptop and decided to go through the company we've closed deals with these few days.My door opened all of a sudden and like I never expected Mr lawns walked in. this time alone."What does he want this time."

You know who Eric is right, he'll make sure you pay for this if he finds out." I said to her,"So what do we do now?" Sarah asked.'We? Did she just say we? She made this mess and she has to fix it.'

I didn't want to waste any more time.After some minutes I got out tying a bath white robe as I sat down before the mirror so the hairstylist could commence on beautifying my hair."Rayne do you want shady blue or you'd rather go with the normal one?" Eliana asked me."The normal one." I replied to her with a smile on my face."Good day Ma'am, I'd like you to choose a hairstyle."

What did they possibly have to say about Rayne? The FBi and my men were on the case even though it hasn't had any progress or trace. "Sit." was my stern voice.I hadn't forgotten so quickly that Bianca was the reason Rayne left.Bianca handed me a piece of paper "That is the map showing the location I think Rayne would be." she said. "Not think, she's there." Sarah said I wasn't ready for their shenanigans today and not now I wasn't in my frame of mind. I looked at the information in my hands, it was a map leading to the boundary of the town.But what would Rayne be doing there, and why would Sarah want to help me find her. "You don't have to trust me but you can assign your men to go there in search of her." Sarah stated. "Let's go, I told you he doesn't believe us." Bianca said, trying to drag Sarah along.

I heard the secretary greeted me."I want to see your boss." I stated."I'm sorry ma'am but he has been off for a few days now." she replied politely.If Fred wasn't in the office and also not at home could it be that he has been with Rayne all through.I felt that sting of jealousy in me as I walked out of the company in annoyan

The name rang a bell in my head. I couldn't picture who he was or what he was."You're mine Rayne." "Let's get married.""I'll burn down a whole city if anyone tries to hurt you."
