_KIMBERLY_

"Interesting," Detective Jun said as he looked at my phone, that lay on the table in front of him.

Oliver and I invited him over to talk about the phone call that I had received from William last night. As agreed, I recorded the entire conversation. Now, we were all seated in the living room as I played the recording.

Things were becoming dangerous so, Oliver sent Lora to stay with Olivia while we tried to get things under control. I sat next to him and his hand was over my shoulders while the detective sat across from us.

"What do you think?" Detective Jun asked me. "Is it worth it?"

"Of course, it is. I don't want any harm to come to the people around me," I answered, feeling insulted that he questioned the worth of the situation.

"Then what do you want to do?"

"I want to do whatever I can to ensure the safety of everyone including myself."

"Do you want this man behind bars?"

"Of course. I want

    _KIMBERLY_ I slowly opened my eyes with a loud groan. Everything was spinning and my head hurt. Sitting up, I took in my surrounding. My drowsiness immediately disappeared when I realized that I was in another place. I was in a small room with no windows. The walls were painted with dark grey paint and despite not being tied up, my joints felt strained. I sat up and stretched. How long was I out? I looked around the room and noticed a camera on the corner of the ceiling. "You're finally awake." William's voice echoed in the tiny space. "You've been out for two hours." "Where am I?" I asked with a frown. "Some place somewhere. Details shouldn't be that important to you." "Asshole." He laughed. "It's funny because you still don't realize the position that you are in even now." "You said that you would hear me out. Why are you breaking your word again?" "I'm sorry, Rose, I

    _OLIVER_ "How are her movements?" Detective Jun asked the other officer who came along with him. He hummed as he stared through the binoculars. "She's been standing there for a while." "They are probably waiting to see if someone is waiting for her." "Maybe, but we are too far to notice." He dropped the binoculars for a moment before looking through them again. "A car just parked a small distance from her." "Who's in the car?" I asked from the backseat. "Relax," Nick, the detective's co-worker, answered. "It's a blonde man." I hummed as I thought of anyone, except Ana, who was blonde. Detective Jun looked over his shoulder at me. "Are you sure about coming along?" I frowned. "I told you that I'm not going to stay home while this operation is going on." "You already have a broken arm. What will you do if something bad happens?" "We already went through those type of ques

    _KIMBERLY_I stirred in my sleep with a groan as I shifted my body slightly on the bed that I was sleeping on. My throat was dry and I felt like I was drowning in an abyss of darkness.I began to wonder what happened as I kept my eyes closed. The last thing that I remember was the sound of gun shots and the heavy footsteps that got louder as William got angrier. Did Oliver and the others manage to save me or did William get away with me?I could just open my eyes to know the answer. It was simple. That was sensible enough but I couldn't bring myself to do so. What if things didn't go according to plan? I did not want to be pushed into that harsh reality.William was never going to change. Knowing that saddened me but it made me stop hoping for it. During our conversation, he would twist my words in a way that made sense to him and I could see in his eyes that he truly hated me despite declaring his love.The gentle touch of cold

    _OLIVER_The day - and business - went by slowly. Usually, that isn't a good sign, but it was just for the day anyway.Slow though the day went, business was too thick and heavier than usual. I guess that's what I get for taking over the family business because my older sister got a sudden passion for music and left the company all to me when I was twenty-two years old. I didn't mind the work because honestly speaking, I expected her to abandon ship much earlier.Most of the shareholders complained that I was too young and lacked appropriate experience to run the company but nobody argues better than Judd Woodling, my father, who seemed to be more than agreeable to my succession.Woodling Incoparated is a large company with many branches that specializes in software. It is a family inheritance privilege. This company has been in my family for so long that I don't even remember the founder's name. I just know that he was from New Zealan

    _OLIVER_ I leaned back into the comfortable armchair in my study as my eyes skimmed through the contents on my computer screen. The way things were looking, I needed to contact the Human Resource Department to deal with finding a new closer and lawyer for the next conference. My father had signed a contract with Inofex last month and that meant that another branch of Woodling Inc. would be made in Egypt. Stretching my arms above my head, I yawned and dropped my arms before staring back at the computer. I loved this job and all, but it really took a toll on me sometimes. It was Friday and despite my roudy social circles, I haven't had the leisure to go out for a while now. With all the paperwork that I was bombarded with, going out to a pub or somewhere lively to enjoy my night would be almost sinful. "What a lousy Friday you are," I muttered under my breath, wishing that I could unleash my wrath onto the week.

    _KIMBERLY_ "Yes, perfect," I said happily. "Let's try that again. One two three, one two three, one two th-" I cut myself short. "Jen arms wide, your wrists below like so." I demonstrated and she copied. "Excellent." One. Two. Three. One. Two. Three. One. Two. Three. "Grace, elegance and posture. Dance is the essence of life. Let the music speak for you," I instructed. Ever since I was young, ballet dancing was my life. It expressed me the finest and explained the emotions that I couldn't describe with words. It calmed me and, most importantly, it kept me sane. It saddened me that I would one day grow too old for it so, I wanted to enjoy as much as I could while my body could allow it. This class wasn't so bad. Well, most of the students' technique was poor but nothing that couldn't be fixed. That's why the

    _KIMBERLY_ I gingerly walked down the hall of the three story building of my apartment. My eyes were downcast as I fidgeted with the straps of my black handbag. My room was on the top floor but I took my time because I was in no hurry to get there. With every agonising arrival, I was greeted by an empty room and the usual lonely hollowness that swallowed me. A quiet abyss that would either grant me peace or give voice to my pain. I laughed at myself. After residing in that same room for the past five years, I should be used to it by now. Running away from home to start afresh didn't seem to be working out for me. Each day brought new paranoia and it wasn't a good feeling to live with. Sometimes I even felt like I was going crazy. I swallowed the knot that formed in my throat and let out a tight smile when I stepped out of the elevator. I was a "cheerful" woman and I couldn't be caught wallowing in self-pity. I had to look as

    _KIMBERLY_My body trembled as Oliver increased his pace. I moaned softly as he went deeper into me and my grip around his neck tightened. Oliver was seated on the bed as I sat on top of him.Our bodies faced each other as we moved together. Oliver's breath was hot against my chest and I panted as I leaned into him more. My mind was hazy and all my attention was where he pleasured me.He reached out and fondled my chest with his hand. A small whimper left my lips and I leaned down to kiss him. Our lips moved roughly against each other as as we pleased ourselves and I moaned loudly when my body reached its peak.My body slumped against Oliver as I tried to catch my breath. Oliver's hand dropped to my thighs as he caressed them softly while we both calmed down.I held his shoulders and pushed myself away from him. He stared at me with a goofy smile that I couldn't help but laugh. What a weird face to make after sex.

    _KIMBERLY_I looked around the cafe that we agreed to meet detective Jun and saying that I was anxious was an understatement. This little cafe was warm and peaceful. The place had a cute nature design and it was filled with people, showing me that it was a popular place.Despite the soft atmosphere mixed with the sounds of conversation that was going about, these two things made me even more restless. This place was filled with people. What if William sent someone to spy on me?Oliver rested his hand on top of mine and I looked at him. "Are you okay?" he asked.I gave him a small, nervous smile and replied, "I'm not.""Still feeling nervous?""Yeah. I can't help but feel like I'm doing something wrong.""Sometimes we need more than our own strength to get things done. He's been tyrannizing you for too long and he needs to be stopped.""I understand that, but my family is on the line." I let out a deep sigh. "I don

    _KIMBERLY_I was going to meet a detective and talk about my problems with William with him.I laughed softly. I couldn't believe it.I had to talk about something that I have failed to take to the authorities no matter how many times I thought about it. It made me relieved though. It gave me a certain sense of freedom, but at the same time, it scared me.William always found out things about me as though he has been watching. I almost feel like he is watching my every move. What if he finds out that I'm talking to detective Jun and he attacks me directly?I didn't want more blood on my hands and I was tired of carrying every burden of blame that he put on my shoulders.Despite my fear, the thought of having him behind bars made me hopeful. This was a gamble that could either make things better or make them worse. A gamble that literally had my life depending on it.Oliver had a talk with the detective earlier and they o

    _KIMBERLY_I parked my car in the parking lot of Lora's school and leaned back into my chair with a heavy sigh. I was late. There were barely any cars in the parking lot and I was anxious about Lora's reaction to this after I had insisted on picking her up this morning.It was all Oliver's fault!"Let's take a short nap," he said."I'll wake you up so don't worry," he said.What was supposed to be a short nap would have kept us in bed until the evening if it wasn't for one of the maids, who called Oliver to ask for another day off, hadn't woken us up.I got out of the car and locked the door before walking into the building. I didn't know where to start looking for her so I peeked into every class I passed through.I kept reminding myself to calm down because I was only twenty minutes late and it could have been worse."Excuse me," a man called and I turned to face a short, slim man with brown hair.
