CAMILA

I scoffed as I got down from the supposed car the school brought. "Thank you" I mumbled as the driver drove away. I could feel the bile at my throat telling me something was off about the school but I'm ignoring that, I'm not letting that affect me. The school is owned by the Governor, so of course, there should be plenty of enemies. I walked gently into the house.

"Dad?" I called entering the kitchen but scoffed remembering he left. Yeah... he did, this morning. He had to travel, I felt tears burn at the brim of my eyes but I ain't crying. I rushed to my bag to call him but as I rampage through my bag, I couldn't help but fear. I bet my phone isn't here. Shit! I mumbled falling to the sofa. I lost my phone, probably when the attack happened, goodness how do I call him now? I sniffed as the tear finally slipped down, if only dad's here. I wouldn't have told him anyway, I thought taking a drink from the fridge. Goodness, I badly needed this. As I closed my eyes enjoying the flav

    CAMILA As I walked into the school with my backpack on my shoulders, I shuddered as students were too much, I bet I'm late. Remembering I haven't talked to dad, I sighed dejectedly, I'm sure he'd be very worried. But it's okay, I'd probably give him a call with Ava's phone."Hey newbie" Someone called, on turning to the direction, I scoffed when I saw the guy. He looked rather unkempt, I'm sure he isn't here for normal classes, he's probably taking one of the business classes."Not a newbie" I mumbled trying to walk past him."Heyy" he held my shoulders and I scoffed."Let go" I ordered and he chuckled moving back."I guess I'd see you around pretty" he gave a malicious grin and I scoffed moving towards the class. Halfway, I paused when I saw the image. "Chloe?" I mumbled. She was ranting some incoherent words pulling a girl on her hair. Who's that? I thought walking closer to them. As I moved, they moved forward too but I was determined to see what she's up to."Hey" I yelled as she

    "Chloe!!" I yelled over the phone."I want you at the school hospital right now!" I yelled before ending the call. She knows better than to disobey me.I sat gently on the chair waiting for the girl to be treated on, she has to explain what Chloe did."Boss, there's a call!" Fanscho yelled running to me. I paused on seeing the caller. Dad? I thought."Henry!!" His voice roared over the phone. "You were attacked just yesterday!" He yelled and I sighed."I just wanted to be in school dad" I mumbled."I want you out of there" he yelled over the phone."Dad?" I mumbled."Right now!" He said firmly and I stood up having no choice, for him to have called me, he really wanted me out of here."Get her back to school" I told Fanscho and he nodded before bowing. I sighed walking to her ward, I just wanted to see her. She laid peacefully on the bed, her arm isn't bleeding and gently, I walked away to my car.***CAMILAI woke up slowly, my vision blurry as I glanced around. I caught a glimpse of

    CAMILAI exhaled walking into the compound but paused on seeing the door open. Is dad around? I thought hastening my step, I opened the door and I was welcomed by his furious face."Camila!" He yelled and a kind of fear ran through me. "Where have you been huh?" He asked and I sighed walking to him "Dad" I mumbled hugging him, he exhaled before stroking my hair."I was worried Camila" he mumbled and I laughed pulling away. His face went pale and I wondered why."What happened to your arm?" He asked grabbing my arm, he observed it carefully and I swallowed hard. I definitely ain't telling him I almost got shot."Nothing dad" I mumbled pulling away, "I only scraped my arm" I mumbled but he stared at me doubtfully. "Dadddd" I whined and he exhaled falling to the sofa."You got bullied already?" He asked slowly and I sighed having no other choice, I'd tell him the half truth."Yes dad but trust me I'd handle this" I said firmly."Your lips" he mumbled standing up, he got an emollient and

    HENRYI rolled on the bed before opening my eyes but I squinted it immediately trying to adjust to the light. Goodness, I forgot to put the light off yesterday. I sat up picking my phone, I checked all my medias and luckily, no important message I have to attend to, my account manager must have taken care of it. A message popped into my phone and I smiled seeing it's Bilal, one of my business classes' partner. "Hey, when are you coming?" the message read."Soon bro" I replied back. I stood up walking to the bathroom, I did my business before coming back into the room. Picking a grey joggers and a polo, I gently sat on the sofa before calling Fanscho. He entered almost immediately."Good morning sir" he said with a bow. I only chuckled at him using the term "sir" for me."Book an appointment with my dad" I said and he nodded. I have to talk to dad, I know he isn't going to allow me go to school anytime soon and I have to discuss with him. "Tell me the time" I said and he nodded before

    HENRYWith the guards behind me, I walked into the elevator and they walked in too, heavily guarded. We got out of the elevator and glamorously, we took the way to dad's office. The paintings made me smile, I mean I just love the color white. The guards slipped their card inside and it gave a green light before the door open. I walked in while the guards stayed behind. "He's in his office" his PA said and I nodded without replying, I just don't like his PA. I knocked on the door to his office room before his voice came up."Come in" he answered and I nodded opening the door to his room. He's the only one in the room and he's in front of the mirror, gazing at himself."Good day dad" I mumbled but he only nodded. I took a seat on the sofa and a maid walked in serving me a cup of juice."Why're you here Henry?" He asked and I sighed, he barely has time for me but he wants to influence all of my decisions. He acts all annoyed with me sometimes and also sweet sometimes. "I wanted to talk

    I entered the house falling to the couch tiredly, did they really have to discard of me? I took them as my friends already. I sighed untying my hair. I guess I'm always unlucky when it comes to friendships but... I shrugged the thought of with a sigh, I need to rest. I heeded to my room then showered before falling asleep. It was night time already when I woke up, I took a refrigerated food using that as my supper. My phone rang and I smiled on seeing it's dad. "Dad?" I called smiling. He switched the call to facetime and I giggled on seeing his face."Camila?" He called the smile lurking on his lips. "I miss you" he mumbled and I laughed."I miss you too" I mumbled. The pain of not having him here is stinging my heart, I mean if he's here, it'd have been better. I miss him very much. And I have a lot to talk about."Are you okay Camila?" He asked and I looked up instantly."Hmm?" I gasped lightly."You're crying Camila" he muttered and that's when I felt the tears on my cheek."I'm

    At lunch break, I walked gently to Ava and Anna."Hi" I waved calmly but she only scoffed."I'm sorry for lying, I just didn't want to tell you I fainted" I said calmly."Whatever Camila, I don't want you with us" Ava stated meanly."But.. but why?" I stuttered."Nothing Camila and I want you to stay away from us. Far from us" she said before walking away."Sorry" Anna mumbled before following her.Goodness, I shut my eyes falling to a chair, this is very bad. Some students were staring at me but I didn't care. I should check my phone maybe the teacher added me to the group, but hell no, I haven't been added. Goodness, what's taking so long? I didn't have appetite so I brought out my phone to check the internet. As I scrolled, I saw Henry's video. Wow, he wore a shirt in it, just a 30 second video but it's dope. I tapped the saving icon to save it on my phone. He's very beautiful no wonder girls love him. But why did Chloe warn me to stay away from him? Does she love her brother now?

    CAMILAIt's Saturday morning and I'm very excited, dad will come back today. I did my business then cleaned and arranged my room. I read for few minutes, the geometry isn't helping at all. My thought went to Anna and Ava, they're really serious, they didn't talk to me. Well, it's not bad. Chloe only attends classes whenever she feels like and I love it, at least no trouble for me. The door bell rang and my eyes widened. Dad's back! I stood up immediately rushing out of my room. "Dad?" I called as I opened the door but stopped on seeing him, with a woman."Camila" he mumbled as I stared from him to the woman. Is she the maid?"Camila" dad smiled ruffling my hair. "Meet Mary, your home caretaker" he said.Goodness, I swallowed hard as I stared at the woman, she looks creepy a little bit."Hi Mary" I mumbled walking to the sofa while dad walked in with the woman."I don't need her anymore" I mumbled to dad's hearing."Camila.." he called in a warning tone."I don't want her" I said again

    Anna glanced around in class as she watched the news.So Camila is the Governor's daughter. Wow. She exhaled as she continued watching.So, what will happen to Camila's and Henry's relationship huh? And Chloe, she wondered how she'd feel.She was so engrossed in the state's activities that she didn't know when the person approached her."Hey" the voice jerked her back to reality and she smiled on seeing Clinton.The smile left her face when she saw him stare intently at her."What?" She mumbled under her breath. His look was kind of holding compassion but she better not think far."Camila isn't in school?" He glanced around and she nodded to his question. Does he still want Camila?"Won't she come for exams?" She heard him say under his breath and she almost scoffed."Do you still like her?" She found herself asking. The question made Clinton pause because yes, he still wanted her."No" he lied but it felt like he was telling the truth.Anna gave a discreet smile before turning to him

    Braden stared at Chloe as she slept. They had a good time and he enjoyed every bit of it. He came here to make love to her because when he heard she still wanted Henry, he wanted to go mad. He couldn't believe it but thank goodness, he thought of everything.Chloe was just someone who lacked love and Samantha only influenced her. So, he came with the intention to make things clear. He loves her and she needs to know.She moved closer to him and he wrapped his arms around her in a protective manner.…When Chloe woke up, he was still admiring her.

She pulled away from the hug, her shock evident on her face.He said he loves her? She blinked rapidly as she processed it."You…you" she wanted to say but he stopped her with a kiss."Yes, I love you" he declared once more, a happy smile on his lips."Oh my gosh, oh my gosh"

    CAMILAI sobbed as I curled up on the bed. I tried hugging my tiny self as I reminisced on everything.If Henry is angry then, maybe, he might just end things with me.He…he will tell me to fuck off. A tear ran down my face as I thought of it. No, I can't think of losing Henry.The knock on the door interrupted my thoughts and I dashed to the door immediately.My face sank when I saw it wasn't Henry but my face lit up seeing it's Fanscho."Fanscho…" I subconsciously pulled him into a hug.Damn, I haven't seen him for a long time.He chortled as he patted my back which got me smiling."You're really okay, thank goodness."I pulled away instantly and he laughed, "come with, Henry sent for you.""Henry?" I batted my eyelashes as happiness surged through me, "where's he?""Come with me, I'll take you."…My heartbeat quickened as we took every step towards the garden where Henry was. Fanscho was leading the way and I tentatively walked behind him.Will Henry break up with me? No, why'd he

    CAMILAMy heart thumped loudly inside of me and I glanced at Henry but he only stared unfazed. Isn't he scared or bothered?Well, just now dad said he has to talk to the two of us and…I'm scared.I'm scared he's going to end everything between us. No, I don't want that. I don't want to lose Henry."Stop being a scared pussycat" Henry gave a lopsided smile and I didn't know how but…it made me smile. I know he meant something else. He's being naughty while I'm scared huh? Well of course, he became naughty when he came back.You had to see how many times he had me yesterday."Shut up!" I whispered jokingly but paused when the footsteps approached.Dad is coming."Heyy" he sat down and my heart sank at his sight. I hate having to see his arm this way.I held back my tears as I waited for what he had to say."Camila…" he called with an exhale and Henry scoffed."You know you're my blood now and that's affecting your relationship with Henry."A lone tear ran down my face as he said what I e

    HENRYAnger boiled in me as I stared at them. Why did they even leave me in the hospital? I came here with Mia and just at the doorstep, I heard him talk lovingly to Camila. He loves her that much?Of course, she's his lost daughter. But he has never directed such attention to me. Even while Camila was away, he took Chloe as his daughter and he only treated me less than a son."Answer me!" I ordered and I saw Camila flinch. Her lips trembled and I knew she was scared.No, I wasn't her for that, I shouldn't make her scared ."Why did you leave?" I sauntered towards her and she swallowed trying to maintain eye contact with me."She had…" dad tried speaking but I stopped him."I need you to excuse us" I ordered, anger building in me. He only nodded and he ruffled Camila's hair before walking out.Wow! How much he loves her. Now, I'm forced to think he's not my dad."Why did you leave?" I held Camila's jaw as I stared softly at her."I…I…I…please…just go Henry" she stuttered and I exhaled

    HENRYI woke up with a flicker of pain. My head hurt and my arm hurt. I tried opening my eyes but my lids felt too heavy.I tried rolling on the bed but the pain in my chest made me stay still. I groaned when the pain increased and the events came rushing to my memory.I was shot…I was with Camila . Camila was telling me to hold on but I couldn't. She told me she loved me, she told me to stay alive but my hands slipped off her face.Am I dead? Is that why I can't open my lids?I opened my mouth to speak, maybe someone could tell me where I was, "anyone there?""Henry?" I heard the voice. A familiar voice.I heard footsteps which meant the person was coming towards me. And…that's when my lids opened.I squinted my eyes as the rays hit my eyes and I saw Mia.Mia? I thought it's Camila. I glanced around as I searched for Camila but I only saw Chloe. Where's my love? Charles didn't take her, did he?Mia reached me and immediately, she took my hand, sobbing lightly."You're okay now.""Whe

    CHLOEI grinned as they all stared at me as the only hope they had. I saw the Governor, no ex-Governor glared at me but I didn't care.When Camila left, I thought about it.She said a few words and her explanation seemed quite true but I didn't believe her. But when she talked to dad, I saw the affection he had for her. Even when they wanted to kidnap him, they took her first so it could be true.And then Henry is in the hospital, he needs my own kind of blood. So, I had to use the opportunity to my advantage. I've always wanted Henry or Braden but this morning, Braden didn't care so I could just have Henry.I know we aren't siblings but only dad and I know that. So…I have to keep it away from Camila to get what I want.I don't care if he's my cousin or not."Tell us, what do you want?" Camila asked desperately."Only one thing, before he wakes up, you get out of his life. I want Henry so you have to step back.""Chloe! This isn't the …" Mia tried saying but I raised my hands and she

    CHLOEI got out and I saw her eyes widened."Camila?" Mia ran out and I ran after her."Mia!" We reached her and Mia retreated in her steps when she saw the person."Henry? Henry?" She bent down and I saw tears roll down her eyes. A tear rolled down when I saw him. Henry. He's covered in a pool of blood.How did this happen? I looked over at Camila and saw…her face was plastered and filled with bruises.Did Uncle Charles torture them this much?"Henry?' Mia kept shaking him but his lids didn't even open."How…how did this happen?" Mia stuttered before she stood up. She grabbed Camila angrily. "How did this happen?"She wanted to speak but all that came out was a gasp. She was choking on her tears."Henry?" I took his hands and saw they were pale already.I saw Camila stare intently at me as tears rolled down her face."Where's the Governor?" Mia asked and Camila paused."Dad…dad…he's inside" she rushed towards the left and I ran after her. Wait, why did she call him dad? We got in an

    CHLOE"Chloe!" I heard the voice barge in and I turned to the person immediately."Mia?" I called as my lips quivered."Where…where's Henry? Where's Camila? Where is the Governor? Are…is the news true?" She rushed her words and I scoffed."I don't know…Mia, I don't" I shut my eyes as a tear rolled down. Is it true? Why'd he confess to it? I didn't even know it was…it was uncle Charles.Damn. He finally caught the Governor. A secret we've tried to bury. Yes, we, I knew about it years back and that's why I struck a deal with the Governor. For his secret to remain with me, he has to treat me like his own. Not like I'd rat him out or anything.And he did…"Where…where are the guards?" Mia asked and I looked up."They…they all left.""Goodness " she shut her eyes, pacing around. "Where…where are they? We have to go save them" she mumbled and my eyes widened. What?"What…what, we have no guards.""Where are they?" She yelled and I flinched."Here, the guards tracked their location before t
