ROSS'S POV:

THAT SAME NIGHT:

I just arrived at the bar Jeremy and Chandler were at and to my surprise, Tony Lauder was seated there as well laughing hard. They saw me from afar and Jeremy waved, I strolled towards them ignoring looks from other people who were there as well.

I was displeased seeing Tony Lauder as his energy and the words that came out of his mouth, portrayed him as a jerk, a scumbag and a man who played with women. The only reason I still gave him some ounce of respect was because he still respected his wife based on what I had heard and he was a good businessman.

“What's up? For a moment there I thought you weren't coming.” Jeremy and I shook hands in a way we have been doing since we were younger. So did Chandler who seemed to be in an awful mood.

“I had to meet up with someone.” I informed them as I took a seat. I gave Tony a head nod as a form of greeting and he smiled faintly.

Jeremy looked at me suspiciously with a hint of amusement and I chuckled, shaking my h

    ROSS'S POV:“Her name is Louisiana, and we are just…..friends.” It felt weird calling her a friend as not everyone could be referred to as my friend even Nina was just an ex more than a childhood friend.Chandler and Jeremy looked at me with wide eyes. “This is a good start! You're going to be able to finally move on with someone new.” Jeremy suggested with his tone hopeful that he was right and the three men looked at me while I furrowed my eyebrow.“So close.” Chandler sighed and Jeremy exhaled loudly.“She's truly just going to be a friend, I don't know what's going to happen in the future but….” I wanted to tell them that my heart and being belonged to a woman whom I may never see or get to hold again but this wasn't the time nor the place to be pouring my heart. Plus they would just laugh it out or look at me with sadness expressing how hopeless my case was.Chandler often vocally shared that he feared that I would die a rich old man in my mansion without having kids or anyone n

    NINA'S POV:THAT MORNING:I drove back to the mansion with tears rolling down my cheeks. I was so sad that I had almost called one of the few men who were still interested in me, he was a middle class man who promised to provide me with the bare minimum. He was also not a good looking man but he wasn't ugly, he had nothing that could be attractive to a woman of my standards. The minute I tried to picture a life with him, I saw struggles and hardship all the way with my mother as a jest. It was so horrible that I wanted to punish myself for even thinking about it.I thought about going to see Mrs Anderson but I just wanted to speak to my mother and seek her advice. I knew a life without Ross was a life of pain, humiliation and sadness, so I knew there was no such thing as giving up on him. My action today was simply a tactic I hoped will work in making him feel bad, and come to me at least just this one time.As I arrived in the quiet almost empty mansion, I sniffled and cleaned my eye

    NINA'S POV:“Hello? Are you still there?” Ross asked and I quickly responded, “Yes!” I mentally cursed myself from showing how excited I was so I cleared my throat before speaking again.“Yes. I appreciate you for apologizing. I just want you to know that everything I do is tailored to just show you how much I love you and how I always want no one aside from you. I know you aren't interested because of the past, but maybe we can at least start on a clean slate and try to make things work? You don't have to reply right now, we will just take things at a time.” My voice was so soft, I had read that I needed to tap into my feminine energy more in order to get a real man like Ross.Though literally asking him out wasn't me tapping into my feminine energy at least my soft voice, pretty outlook and acting like a cute child should help. Right? “We will take things at a time. I have to go now, we will talk later.” My heart smiled and I was about to say Goodbye but he had already hung up. I

    TERRA'S POV:A memory soon crossed my mind of when they were younger, at least two years back, when they had to go out with Grandpa Philip since he was in the country but they wouldn't go anywhere unless I was there with them. They had grown so much and their teenage years scared me.“Girl, come on. You look like you are about to cry.” Evelyn joked and I chuckled following her in the house.*******About five minutes after we got back inside the house, a bunch of masseuses arrived and Evelyn instructed me to go change and she had already prepared a robe for me. I grinned in excitement and surprise and went ahead to change. By the time I arrived back, they had already set up everything in the living room and all I had to do was lay down and get ready to enjoy myself.Evelyn was truly the best, food was getting prepared and the aroma filled the air.“Hmmmm…That was so relaxing.” I heaved out a breath, tying my robe after they were done.

    TERRA'S POV:THAT SAME DAY:“Evelyn, who is she?” I asked again, folding my arms across my chest. It bothered me so much that the guest knew me as both Terra and Catherine, and it annoyed me further that I had no idea who she was and Evelyn had most likely told her about my entire life though it seemed unlike her.“She's so different now, and I am too. I know I look nothing like how I looked in the past. Long blonde hair, pretty dresses…” The guest listed and Evelyn stood beside her laughing.“An actually girly girl with the perfect body every guy wanted and girls envied.” Evelyn described and I just stared at the two of them before just gazing intently at her guest, trying to picture her that way as she looked like a stud right now, a tomboy.I continued looking at her face and she was starting to look familiar. She flashed me a pretty smile, “Hi Terra, my name is Whitney Dia. Your childhood friend who left in junior year of high school.”As soon as she introduced herself, her past i

Because I doubt it was just a coincidence we came across each other at the mall that day.” Evelyn was becoming irritated by the tone in her voice and Whitney could sense a shift in mood so she suspended her eating and turned towards us.“Hold on, James Lauder was simply a gateway for me to meet you two, my childhood friends again. This isn't strategic, stalking crap. Believe it or not, Evelyn it was a coincidence we met that day at the mall. And Terra, I realized your identity had changed which is why I stayed back from introducing myself and even approaching you. I mean no harm, I returned back to Salandi to start my life afresh and start my own company. I'm not after you guys for anyth

So freaking useless!” She hit the television stand in anger and shook her head.“I have already lost. I have nothing again, no way to clear my name out of Nina's stupidity.

They had been able to give the old woman and her grandson the sum of a million for their help in finding Nina and the family was given the media space to be able to show their appreciation to Ross and Terra, letting them know it will go a long way in pulling them out of the hand to mouth lifestyle they had been living especially since the grandmother was single handedly raising the boy.“Mummy.” Eric called out from his bed with droopy eyes, and she waved at him with a smile trying her best not to wake Eleanour who was finding it hard to close her eyes.Eric was not shot neither was Ross but Terra still requested he stayed

But coming here, it was just the regular day to day activities and then trips during the holiday but coming here made me realize there's a lot more to life. And I just think…everything happens for a reason and I have experienced all I need to here.” The fact that he didn't hold me accountable or become harsh to me made me feel bad for yelling at Ross and his mother…for another person's action.“I have been thinking about moving away as well. Morgan and Sarah have been calling me everyday since they heard of this. And I totally feel the same way you felt about here and Aurenia except I didn't find the love of my life here.” We both chuckled weakly and he responded, “Yeah okay.”As they both discussed more about moving back, unbeknownst to them Ross and Evelyn, who was bringing breakfast, ove

And dialed Nina's contact and placed it on a loudspeaker, the call rang for a moment and at the fourth ring, there was finally an answer making Chandler's eyes go wide in excitement.“Nina, Where are you? Tell me where are you now and what do you want?” Ross asked with desperation and the other line remained silent.“WHERE THE HELL ARE YOU?” He shouted in anger, making Chandler jump a bit.“Hello? Who is this? I just found this in the dumpster ... .What did this woman do though I don't have a television so I need some drama?” Ross clung to his hand with so much force, Chandler thought he would crush it so he quickly collected it from Ross.“Okay…okay…A dumpster where?
