Molly:*WARNING: DO NOT READ IF YOU ARE HOMOPHOBIC. CONTAINS SEXUAL LGBTQ SCENE.When I saw this man I was stunned for a minute, until Paula walked back to us."Juan!" She called out, throwing herself on him.Juan was dark skinned with silky black hair and a defined mustache which sat beneath his nose. There was something about his black eyes— they were simply beautiful."I see you've met my friend," she said to him."Yes I have, and she failed to resist my charm," he said with a proud look on his face.This suddenly wiped off the thoughts about him, making me scrunch up my face in disgust."Well this is Molly, my good friend," Paula said to him. "Molly this is Juan," she added, and we both shook hands.I took my hands off him almost immediately, and I hoped he noticed. It wasn't right to judge people but then the first impression mattered and he looked like someone who would gloat over themself."Happy birthday, Juan," Paula said, and then she pulled out a check and handed it to him
Farrell:I have been busy since I arrived. For the past two days I haven't set my eyes on Greta. She never came to study after that day, and I didn't see her at the dinning either. Also Aunt, Tabitha was always the one to inform me when food was ready.A part of me felt she had been fired, but I decided not to think too much about it. But then there was something about Greta. I didn't view her in a romantic way, I was only attracted to her brain. After we talked I realized she was smart. She probably didn't have enough to further her education.Waking up this morning, I felt a little bit shaken and I felt the need to go for a walk. So I dressed up in my sweatpants, and hoodie then I put on some kicks. I took my phone with me too.Molly hadn't texted back, and I couldn't help but wonder how everything was going back home. I wish I could know but then I assumed things were great since I hadn't gotten a distressed call.The moment I stepped out of my room, I heard some comotion downstair
Farrell:Greta disappeared into the store and I clutched onto her book. My phone beeped and I wanted to know if Molly had left a text. Taking out my phone from my pocket I saw that it was a random text from the service operator. I sighed, and put my phone back into my pocket. Then the book I had in my hand fell.Crouching down to pick it, a piece of paper fell out. I picked it up, and opened it. *LETTER FROM NINETEEN YEAR OLD GRETA TO TWENTY YEAR OLD GRETA*IT'S BEEN A FULL YEAR, WE'VE CHANGED SO MUCH BUT WE STILL HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO GO TO COLLEGE. MANIFESTING GETTING INTO COLLEGE SOON AND GETTING A CARTON OF BOOKS.Reading her note made me feel a bit sad. It felt like reading a private diary, and I know it was wrong but then everything happens for a reason right? I needed to find a book store at the moment in order to get her books but then I couldn't leave here.About the tuition fee, I really wanted to pay it but I had to consult aunt Tabitha, and then Greta's legal guardian. Th
Molly:"What happened?" I heard Paula ask, and I pulled my eyes open to see that we were both naked.We both screamed in fear, and I tried to cover my body with the duvet. The memories of the previous night clouded my mind, and I couldn't even look at her the same."Fuck, we had sex!" Paula said, stating the obvious."I'm sorry, Molly," she said, trying to reach out to me but I withdrew my hand.I got out of bed immediately, and I began to pace around. Farrell would fucking kill us if he finds out. I didn't just have sex with any random person but his sister. That was lower than low."Relax, you are overblowing the situation,"Paula said, and I gave her a hard stare.Was I? She really seemed like she was enjoying the situation, and like it was nothing."Do you have sex with women?" I asked.Then she shrugged. "It's really nothing. Sometimes I crave men and other times I crave women, so?" She said, and I slapped my forehead.Craving men or women wasn't my business. What bothered me was
Molly:Having dinner sounded normal, and I wanted to go out. I just had to make sure I didn't backslide this time. No more weed, and alcohol. Just food and fruit juice, I said to myself as we got dressed. I put on a casual flare gown, and a sandal. Then Paula went with a shirt, trousers, and a slip on. Something casual for the evening."I just hope I don't meet anyone like Juan again," I said and Paula chuckled."There is no one like that here. These guys are so chill," she said.We walked out of the hotel, and flagged down a taxi. Our journey began once more with my mind wandering off, and thinking of the possible things that could go wrong.The car came to a halt in front of a large gate with a symbol in front. I had no clue on what it meant, and I itched to know."What's that?" I asked Paula.I was curious because there were a lot of symbols in Farrell's house too. This house definitely belonged to a mafia person."I don't know," Paula said with a shrug.Of course she would neve
Molly:The next time I pulled my eyes open, I was seated in a dark room. I tried to move but then I noticed that my hands were tied, and there was no way I could stand up. I struggled for a while until I heard Paula speak."There is no use struggling," she said, and then I stopped."Paula is that you?" I asked, and she kept mute for a while.It was honestly one problem to another, and if I survived this one I would never go anywhere with her.Help me Lord, I muttered."Paula?" I called out again."Okay it's me, and what now? We are trapped, and it would be best if we remained calm," she said.I was furious, and I wished my hands were loose so that I could smack her in the face. She acted so carefree about the situation, while in reality we were probably going to get murdered."Why are we here? And who were these guys?" I asked, but she didn't say a thing."Paula fucking say something!" I demanded, but nothing happened.I was only speaking to myself."Paula! What did you do?"I screamed
Farrell:When I disclosed the information to aunt Tabitha, she moved in to hit Greta but I stood in the way immediately."What now?" She asked with her brows wrinkled and her hands on her waist.I needed Greta to be alive and I feared aunt Tabitha would hit her so much. How could I not see that this girl was a fraud? I fucking hate my life."Get up!" I commanded her, and then she stood up from the ground with her body trembling."What freedom do you choose? The freedom from death from my family or the dark Mambas, because my family can wipe them in one swoop," I said, looking into her eyes.Her beautiful eyes had changed to a bloodthirsty one in eyes."I.. want freedom from your family. That's why… why.. I told you in the first place," she said while stammering."Unbelievable," aunt Tabitha said with a sigh.Then she turned around to leave."Aunt please, I need you," I said to her."I do not have time to talk. Allow me to smack the living light out of her then I'll be present," she s
Molly:When we were pulled into a room, I smacked the person really hard, and then I turned around, pressing my gun on their head. I was about to pull the trigger but then I heard them speak."Ma'am it's me, Pedro," The voice said, and then Paula flicked a switch. When the lights came on, I saw Pedro standing with his hands in the air, and Farrell was a few inches from him.He had a cold look on his face. I put my gun away immediately. He looked like he was going to choke the hell out of me of we were alone. I should be scared but I wasn't. I wished everyone could disappear, so that I could have him to myself."Are you alright?" Pedro asked, and then I nodded while trying to catch my breath.I rushed over to Farrell, and then I attacked him with a hug. He didn't hug me back, he just stared at me."I thought I lost you," I said with tears in my eyes.Hugging him tighter, I got on my tiptoe to kiss him, but he pulled me at arms length like some virus. That hurt but I deserved that for
Molly: I sat on the terrace, taking in the breathtaking scenery, from swaying trees to flocks of chirping birds. Everything was lovely, and it gave me a warm feeling in my chest. I reflected on my life five years ago with my eyes closed. I could have sworn I made the wrong decision with Farrell that night, but the opposite has been true. Everything went swimmingly, except for the fact that my mother died without recognizing me. Rest in peace, sweet soul. But I am grateful for that night at the club and whatever made him magically attracted to me. I was still trying to enjoy the moment when Corduroy let out a piercing scream. I blinked open my eyes and sighed heavily. How could I have forgotten the most exciting, yet stressful, part? Being a mother! “Mummy!”Corduroy called out in a shaky voice, forcing me to stand. I walked out onto the terrace and into the penthouse. Corduroy pushed the door open before I could reach for it, and he looked up at me with teary eyes. As he cried, I

Molly:*Beginning of flashback*"I'm hungry, and my tummy hurts," I said to Andrew who had just gotten back from work. He signed and made his way up the stairs, brushing shoulders with me."Foolish child," he said, and I muttered a "God bless you,"I didn't think he would hear me, but before I could tell, he yanked me by my hair and flung me on the wall."If your mother won't teach you how to behave then I'll do that. It's my duty as your stepfather to teach you how to respect your elders," he said, and I scoffed.He slapped my cheek, and then pushed me down on the ground. After which he kicked me on my stomach. Then he crouched down close to me, and pressed hard on my jaw."Remember, you can't say a word to your mother if you want her to live," he said to me, and left while I stayed on the cold floor in pain, sobbing silently.My mother usually returned late because she ran her business from morning until late at night. She did all this because Andrew couldn't provide adequately for
Molly:At first I was dumbfounded when Farrell said those words. I couldn't believe it was finally going to happen. I felt weird for a moment, and I reached out to him when he turned to leave. I walked in front of him, and held his face then looked him in the eyes."You don't have to do this, and…""I have decided to let go of the past, and that is the only way that this would work," he said. "I love you Molly, and I want us to work," he added, and then he kissed my lips briefly, before taking my hand.As we walked down the hallway that led to the room, my heart thumped very fast. I feared what I would see and at the same time I was curious.I felt an in rush of air which left my body with goosebumps as we came to a halt in front of a door. He took out the keys from his pocket, and unlocked the door. As he opened it, I took in a deep breath, and shut my eyes. Then I walked in, and opened my eyes to see a crisp bedroom.At first I was in awe at what I had seen. My room was nothing comp
Molly:My body trembled in fear as I felt Lola's tiny hands hold mine. I was blind folded so I couldn't see her but I knew that something terrible was going on. She sobbed silently, and I placed her head on my lap."Don't cry, we will be fine," I said to her trying to hush her, but she wouldn't stop."Will mummy die?" She asked, and I felt my heart crumble in multiple pieces.Having to accept that your parents were evil hit different, but then she had to be grateful that Courtney wasn't her real mum. Well she didn't know this yet so it was understandable that she would cry over what was going on."Mummy will be fine, and your uncle will save her," I lied even after I had heard the gunshot, and Courtney who was shrieking in pain.This child was going to suffer a lot of trauma, but I promised myself to take good care of her, because the only place close to home would be Farrell's house, and I wasn't sure he was stable.The door of the room opened after a while, and I heard someone appro
Farrell:When I got a hold of the gun, I smacked Courtney gently on the face and she fell to the ground then I put the gun in my pocket, grabbed Lola and walked towards the room I heard Molly's voice.Before I could get to it, Courtney jumped on my back, and grabbed hard on my neck. Her hands were obviously weak, and watching her struggle would have been funny in a different scenario."Can't you see I'm trying to save you!" She yelled, and I yanked her off my back.I pushed Lola into the room."Farrell," Molly called out from where she sat with blind folds but I didn't respond, I shut the door, and faced Courtney.The fact she kept acting as if I was in danger and needed help from her made me angry. There was definitely no amount of help that she could offer me at this point."Save me from what? You had one job but each time you were around, you only made me feel worse. I can't believe I failed to realise it until now," "Ingrate!" She scoffed, and then she stood up."Do you know how
Farrell:"Courtney what is…" I was about to complete my question when I looked away from Lola to see Courtney holding a gun.I became alarmed at once, and I tapped my pocket to see that my gun was gone. I turned around to see if there was anyone behind, and I realized Courtney was actually pointing the gun at me."Come here, Lola," she said, and then Lola shook her head, holding right on my neck.Deep down I wished I could handle the situation better but then I knew that the only way to think properly was to hand Lola over. Lola screamed in fear asI put down at once. "You'll be fine," I said to her as I pushed her over to Courtney who looked blood thirsty. I couldn't understand what was going on, and I didn't want to get violent yet. This had to be a joke because there was no way she would openly threaten Lola with a gun. She loved Lola so much."This has got to be a joke right?" I asked, Courtney and she laughed briefly then she placed her hand firmly on the trigger."Does it look
Farrell:"Maria!" I screamed, and then I jerked up at once. I looked around to see that I was lying on Maria's bed.The sun had just risen, and I guessed I had slept walk once more but this time it was for a good cause. I stood up from the bed,and walked to her dresser where her combs and everything were still perfectly laid out. I picked one of them, and I found a few strands of her hair on them. "You were really here," I muttered, running my hand on the comb. Suddenly a very gentle breeze swept by, giving me a brief chilly feel that had the hairs on my body standing, and goosebumps sprouting out of my body."Rest in peace, my love," I said with a deep sigh.I felt an inrush of emotions as I did when I met her, but this time I wasn't angry. It felt nice knowing she was in a good place, and all that could have been was terrible so I was grateful that it never happened.They said you couldn't have your cake, and eat it so I took a deep breath, shoving off the emotions that engulfed
Farrell:After so much contemplation, I grabbed the keys to Maria's room. I made up my mind to keep an open mind. I had to heal from this trauma, or else I would pass it over to my innocent kids who were on the way.When I left my room, I noticed how late it was. Molly crossed my mind, and I hope deep down that she could hold on a little longer until I figured myself out. Quietly, I walked through the long hallway that led to her room. I placed my ear on the door opposite which was were the old lady stayed. I heard her giggle to herself as usual, and I turned around to face Maria's door.I walked to the door, inserted the key, and pulled it open. To my greatest surprise he lights were on, and I heard the shower running."What the?" I questioned myself, slamming the door, and rushing to the bathroom to turn off the shower.The thought that Molly just have been here got me annoyed a bit but then I tried to push it away. I had to push off every little hint of anger. I began to convince
