“Here!” Rose had said while handing Nora some papers that constitute their house bills, she checked her bag if the things she had inside them were complete and if nothing was forgotten.“Where are you going to? It's just too early!” Nora asked adjusting the while inked papers in her hands carefully.“I’m off to speak to Raya because we have something to discuss and clear things among ourselves, aunt Claudia keeps saying things differently and I want all three of us to meet up and talk!” Rose responded as she applied some lip gloss to her lips. “Until now, you are still not done looking for your Sisters!” Nora said, she pulled open the side drawer before setting the papers inside.“You know very well that there is nothing more important than looking for Sasha,” Rose replied as she took her bag for her to leave. The moment Nora pulled open the door, she noticed Ray.“Rose, your Prince Charming is here. I have to go back inside to finish up or I won’t get anything from the market!” Nor
Chantelle walked towards the kitchen area of her eatery to check on what they had prepared for today's sale but a short blinding pain at the side of her stomach made her relinquish her balance as she stumbled on some plate causing the whole items to fall to the floor. The sound of the breaking items only seemed to worsen the pain she was feeling.Mitch quickly ran down from the stairs toward her aunt. “Auntie, why don't you go see a doctor already? Your pains seem to be getting worse!” Mitch muttered worriedly but her aunt seemed to brush everything as usual.“I’m okay!” she responded to the little girl while trying to get on her feet again.“What would happen to me if the pain doesn't stop and something bad happens to you? Grandma Flora already left and you are the only family that I have got.” Mitch said almost in tears.“Wouldn't that at least make you happy when I’m gone forever? At least everything that I have would automatically become yours finally,” Chantelle told the little
The air after Rodrigo and Jessica had their conversation had been filled with silence. They both had been mute throughout their ride back home but the moment they got back to Jessica's residence, Jessica had decided to halt the silence between them.“Uhmmm Rodrigo, I want to thank you for your understanding. It’s not truly impossible for it not to happen but can you give me more time to fix these things!” She told him but he ignored her and walked away.“Hey, you guys are home?” Daina walked down the stairs towards Jessica. “Uhmm, where is Raya?” Jessica asked ignoring her question.“I truly have no idea because I thought she was with you all along!” Daina told.“I think I should call her because where could she be?” Jessica said, searching her bag for her phone. The moment she brought it out, she had dialed Raya’s number.After the third ring, she was beginning to get worried.“I have called and she isn’t answering any of my calls!” Jessica lamented a bit of worry in her expression.
Tessa had walked into her friend's master bedroom as they talked. “You did that? Are you out of your mind? How could you let your men hit you with a bullet?” Tessa yelled out loudly in shock and confusion.“Tessa, shuuuuuuu!” Claudia said placing a hand on her lips.“What's with you, would you please just lower your voice already? Someone might hear you and all the things I have done would be in vain,” she told her friend while she glared around.“What were you thinking of when you allowed them to shoot you?” Tessa questioned more calmly this time. “Do you think if I hadn't done that? The cops and Jessica would believe that I had nothing to do with this. If Jessica finds out, she might come for me while she brings the cops along!” Claudia explained to her friend. “She wouldn't believe that I had nothing to do with her daughter's kidnapping. When the time comes when she would accuse me, making the cops believe her would be hard because my life was put in danger and I had gone there t
“Officers, do you have any news on Rose Franco and her sister who got kidnapped?” Ray questioned the police officer as his friend Eric stood behind him. “Negative sir, we still haven’t found any leads to use in this case.” The officer told him but that had only infuriated him, “So, that’s all you are going to say? Keep on going around to get information. Officer, instead I think you should make another move!” He snapped at them.“Ray, Calm Down already. I think you should allow them to do their job!” Eric said, patting his shoulder.“You want me to Calm Down? How can I be calm when my girlfriend has been kidnapped by unknown men? You want me to sit and relax when I have no idea where she might be or what they might do to hurt her!” He told his friend while breathing hard. “Weren’t you the same person who told me that they are working on it? I think they are the ones taking care of it.” Eric told him not wanting him to cause a scene.“Have you thought of what might happen to Rose? I
Travis had walked into a small shop to buy himself a bottle of water when his attention was caught by the news line on the television. “According to the report, Robbery and kidnapping with the motive of the suspect that entered the coffee shop. Two were kidnapped whose names are Rose and Raya Franco!” the newscaster had said through the microphone In his grip before the pictures of both girls appeared on the tv screen.“Rose and Raya?” Travis said very slowly in surprise and shock. “Another victim known for this incident is Claudia Roman, she is a victim who is recovering from a gunshot wound. She was also the last person who was with the victims before they were kidnapped!” The newscaster said again and that had left Travis very furious. “Claudia?” he called her name in between gritted teeth before walking out of the shop.On the other hand, Claudia was having a celebratory dinner with her friend. She just couldn't wait for her money to get back into her hands, “Can you hear that
The sound of growls and sobs filled the air from both Rose and Jessica as they crouched next to Raya who had just taken the bullet in place of her mother. Tears cascaded down their red cheeks as they tried to wake the little girl who had blood all over her clothes. “Officer, there is a gunshot inside!” the voice of Rodrigo came.“We should bring her to the hospital!” Rose cried out but Jessica was in too much shock to move or do anything. The cops were finally at the warehouse, and they instantly chased after the kidnappers.“What happened?” Rodrigo asked the moment he saw what was transpiring. “We have to take her to the hospital right now,” Rose said, Ray slowly took her in his arms as they all edged towards the car. Soon, they arrived at the hospital. Raya was placed in the bed while they pushed her into the operating theater unit. Jessica tried to go in but she was stopped.“Mrs, we are sorry but you can't go in!” the nurse told her clearly.“Nurse, please do everything you ca
The doctor finally came out of the operating room. He was sweaty and at the same time he looked stressed out. “Doctor, what is the condition of my daughter?” Jessica questioned as the rest gathered around him.“The procedure to remove the bullet from your daughter's body was a complete success. However, we need to put her in intensive care!” the doctor answered.“But doctor, my sister's condition would surely improve right?” Rose asked softly. “As of now, her condition is still critical but we should hope and pray she improves. I need to go if you would excuse me!” the doctor responded nicely before walking away. “I’m sorry to bother you madam but you need to go to the administration and settle your hospital bills and expenses, it's the most important policy that you must make a down payment upon admission of the patient!” The nurse told them while handing Jessica a slip. “Can't it be before the patient is discharged because we are still going to look for our resources, this is a b
