I sigh.
Phewks!
For a moment there, I thought it was Garry.
He leaps from the couch immediately he sees me and opens his arms wide open for a hug.
"I missed you," he ruffles up my curls as I plonk on the couch.
"Called you a million times. Where were you?"
He throws me a pack of fries.
"Fixing your little problem..."
A sex tape is a little problem?

Jesse drops me at Trent's house after begging me countless times to unblock him through the whole drive. I keep forgetting to unblock him. But that doesn't matter now. I wonder how Melanie will react when she sees me. I pray, fingers crossed, that she doesn't remember me.I push the door open and I'm met by an uproar of laughter. Trent and Melanie are seated on the sofa, eating popcorn as they watch a movie. Trent is in his tracksuits and Melanie is wearing some ripped denim shorts and a white crop top. Damn! I'd kill to have her body and her flawless long legs. No wonder she's a model...I've never seen Trent laughing so hard. Not even with Jesse and Marcus.He sees me and he immediately frowns. And guess what, Melanie is glaring at me. She remembers me.

Danna Fox!In my house! What the hell is she doing in my house and most of all,"How did you get in my house!"I expect her to be sly and schemy like her usual self but she looks... Scared?"That's not important now," she says in a very low tone. "Come sit beside me. I don't want him to hear us."Him? Who is him?I squint my eyes, still standing at the door. "What's going on, Danna?"Danna leaps from

We are having a tea break at the school Cafe after the morning class.Bruna looks so excited and I don't know why. It must be Josh probably."Why are you so excited?" I ask her as she scrolls through her phone.Bruna winks. "You'll see..."Wait, that's not her phone.It's Troy's phone."Isn't that Troy's phone?"She nods, glancing at me then back to the phone. Something is suspicious.In a blink of an eye, I see everyone at the Cafe glued to their phone. Some laugh. So
TRENT CHAPTER 21
I don't know how I amassed the strength to get home last night. I even silently cried on the bus, making the old woman seated next to me ask me if there was anything wrong. I told her no. But I lied. Everything was wrong. What Trent had done was wrong. Accusing me of stealing a necklace was wrong. I have never been so humiliated before in my life. I have made a lot of mistakes and done a lot of wrongs but stealing? Me? Becca? Thief? I'll never forgive Trent for this. I will never forgive him.I cried myself to sleep last night. I didn't even have supper. I just tossed the bag on the couch, shambled to my little bedroom and plonked on the bed and broke down tremendously, drenching my pillow in tears. I had started to like Trent. But what he did to me last night. The words he said to me. How he looked at me with so much rage and anger. He believed that I would steal!
TRENT CHAPTER 22
"Message? From Jesse Linkard?"I wonder what it is."Yeah... He begged you to attend his house party tonight!"I digest what Josh has just said. Did he just say a house party? At Jesse's? Well, history has a way of repeating itself within a short amount of time. I go to Jesse's mansion. Bruna and Josh immediately dump me. I sit with Jesse. Trent joins us. He kisses me to chase some girl. I drink a lot and end up getting wasted. And guess who wakes up to shower in my bath the next day? Trent! But this time, I won't let it repeat."No!" I say adamantly.Josh grins. "Baby, Jesse doesn't beg! Ever! But he's begging for you... That's how much he likes you..."
TRENT CHAPTER 23
Compared to the previous party, this one has fewer people and a bit toned down music. I see a couple of familiar faces as we enter the mansion. Young lads are swaying from corner to corner, drinks clutched up in their hands. There are no neon lights tonight. It's just a silent house party. I bet it's for close friends only.What Josh had said earlier is true. Jesse's eyes tend to light up when he sees me and he rushes to hold my hand and lead me to sit beside him."Thank you Sugar," he pecks my hand as we sit. "Thanks for coming. You look like a goddess! You're so fucking precious and so fucking beautiful. "I blush and smile."Don't let her smile fool you," Josh
TRENT CHAPTER 24
The weekend rushed by so fast and Monday is here already.Troy and I arrive for the class early and find other students seated and studying. I'm surprised to see Danna sitting at her desk silently. She's rarely early for any class. She gets on time for classes but not earlier than usual. She's leaning her hands on the desk, her focus on books. This is strange. Really strange."What's up with that snake today? I'm surprised she wasn't expelled," Bruna says as she pulls a chair.I'm surprised she was not expelled too. But she looks sad and there's just something strange with the way she's acting.After the class, I'm quick to follow Danna behind. Thank God she doesn't have her girl gang. They must have ditched h
TRENT CHAPTER 25
Trent and I can get along after all. We ate the delicious meal he had cooked as we watched a movie. You won't believe what movie he selected.Me before you...He says he has watched it a thousand times and it gets to him every time. I didn't expect he loved romantics. He looks like an action movie type but he proved me wrong. After that dinner, I catch a bus back home after I say no to Trent's free drive. I'm glad that he's making my work easier now. I just hope it stays that way.Strolling home, I remember I had a dinner date with Nate. Shit! I had already forgotten about it. I see the lights to his house are still on, so he's not asleep yet.I knock on the door. It takes some seconds for him to open.

TRENT Epilogue
CJ'S POVTearing Terra?What does that Even mean?Tearing Terra?To tear her apart is like tearing me apart. When she's hurt, I hurt. When her heart breaks, mine does too. Even when I tried so hard to torture her and cause her pain, at the end of the day, I would feel so bad about myself and completely drained. I would lie asleep at night, thinking about her and that would tear me apart.Tearing her apart tore me apart too.In short, I was not able to tear her apart like I had previously planned.I tried so hard to tear her apart but I was not able to.I wanted to stay away from her. See her suffer from a distance but I couldn't do that as well. I couldn't fucking stay away from her because I wanted to kiss her. Caress her. Tell her I had missed her. And it was so hard for me because I saw her on a daily... Saw that beautiful hair being flipped at meetings... That perfect sweet mouth curving up a happy smile at lunch... T

Three months laterCJ is gone.Everyday I wake up, I'm reminded of that.I don't wake up with him beside me anymore.It's honestly sad, gloomy and boring without him here.It's cold mornings like this that I wish he was here, lying next to me. Holding me so tight that I felt his warmth. I wouldn't be feeling this cold because we'd make some intense hot love that would leave us burning. That would force us to head to the shower to kill things off... In each other's arms.I miss him...Everyday, I miss him.I drag myself out of bed and head to the kitchen. I sit down to my cup of hot coffee, looking out the kitchen window. Morning mist, thick as smoke.It's going to be a long boring day.No plans whatsoever.It's
TRENT Don't you dare touch me!
"Don't tell me to calm down!"I yell at CJ.We just got back to town and everyone is acting okay and cool. Because it's not their only sister that has been kidnapped by the most dangerous serial killer I know.Their only sister that's pregnant.While I was having the time of my life, my sister was in suffering in the hands of the devil himself. That breaks my heart into pieces."Terra," Dee who just came in some few minutes ago says. "It has not been confirmed that it's Roman who kidnapped her..."I laugh sarcastically and bitterly. "Oh wow! That makes a lot of sense! I think she got lost on her way to the mall, don't you think?"Ren intrudes. "Terra, I think you have to relax-""Relax!" I scream. "Relax? My sister is in the hands of that evil monster and you're telling me to relax! How can I fucking relax! Who knows what the hell he's doing to her! Lord!"I fal

TRENT Good in the kitchen
"Shit Eli! You scared us!"CJ and I are in a towel as we stare at both Eli and Zara from upstairs as they are downstairs."Biiiiiiiiiiiitch!" Zara shrieks. "So this' whatchu' been upto after some jail time! Lookatchu' being naughty!"I roll my eyes at her, concealing just how excited I am that she and Eli are here.It's going to be so much fun.The perfect way to escape from all the negativity and toxicity. I was drowning with everything that was going on. A part of me died slowly day by day.But this... This will be the perfect therapy.An old beach house with the man I love and two close friends.The perfect combo!Eli tosses himself on the couch as CJ resumes to the master bedroom that we slept in."Zara? Can you please come up?"I borrow a dress since I didn't carry any clothes. A few minutes later, I step out of my room with my hand in C
TRENT Just Us!
I knew this moment would come.But I swear to heavens, I was not prepared for it. I was not prepared to explain myself. I don't know if the answers I got are the right answers or if they are answers at all.I open my mouth to say something then I quickly shut up, careful with every word I'll say."Honestly, Cedric... I can blame it on a lot of things but they all come down to me. To my selfishness. It was me..."I take a deep breathe and continue."When I eloped to Russia, I did therapy because I couldn't live with what I had done to you. I had nightmares. I drank myself to sleep. Bars were my favorite spots. But therapy kind of helped me deal with what I had done in a positive manner and learn to live with myself."I swallow hard, nostalgic about those pretty dark days of my life." And through therapy, I learnt some things I didn't know about myself. I had severe anxiety. It's something I had lived with, yet didn't know
TRENT I'm sorry!
The sun is low on the sky when CJ opens the cab door for me.I step out into a stone circular driveway in front of a mansion and I look around blindly In awe.The view of the mansion in front of us is breathtaking. The house sits on a cliff above the ocean and the low sun sets the waves on fire.CJ leads me around the house, his bag on one hand as he holds my hand with the other. We walk along the edge of a large blue pool and towards a furnished pool house.At the doorstep, is a large porcelain pot. CJ bends it over and takes a key under.CJ opens the door and I step inside to an old classic living room with artistic old paintings on the cream walls and one-armed sofas with hundreds of pillows. The table in the middle is wooden and seems like an expensive old furniture that has seen the best of years.Underneath the sofas, lays a Persian rug and just in front of the decor, sits a huge fireplace.&nbs
TRENT That man is not me!
Present day..."He killed his friend?"I nod my head sadly. "Then he forced me to clean up for him and drag the body to the basement."Honestly, that was it for me.I didn't care if he threatened me anymore.I had to leave him. And leave him right away.If he could kill Oscar that quick within a snap of a finger just because of some argument, I wonder what he'd do to me?There's no way I'd sit and wait to see what he'd do to me... I had to leave!"So you stole his packaged drugs and sold them?" asks CJ."Yes, to a guy he despiced. Osborne. Some rich tycoon and I sold it at a very cheap price because I needed to fly away..."CJ looks at me in worry. "It must have been hard for you...""Yes... Especially because I had to stay in h
